Is Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Overrated?

Yes.

It is hailed as the best Zelda of all time. Yet it is objectively inferior to Link to the Past and Majora's Mask. So there.

*sticking tongue out*

 

I agree that Majora's Mask is actually better overall, but I see that as the result of MM being underrated, not OoT being overrated.

Ah, but if it's being hailed as better than a superior game, that makes it overrated by definition! Although Majora's IS criminally underrated...

 

Not to belabor a minor point, but I'm looking at the specific evaluation of each game, and you are looking at the relative evaluation. I mean to say this:  none of the adoration for OoT is misplaced or overblown, but ideally that kind of adoration and indeed more should be felt for MM. I'm not talking about the relative evaluations on lists of top games of all time, etc.
