Your review is still your opinion
i dont care what u think
i replayed Oot on the 3ds an thought it was still a very good game for today standards
in 1998 Oot was the best game ever released on a system
PROFESSIONAL people reviewed the game and concluded it was the best
u r nobody
and nobody cares


And yet he has  right to his own opinion

I agree with you that Ocarina of Time was and still is the greatest game ever. But if somebody dislikes it then there is nothing you can do about. And you certainly don´t have the right to insult somebody just because you don´t like his opinion.

but shouldn't the 'best game ever' be timeless?  super Mario 3 is timeless, it's as fun today as it was in the 80's.  super Mario World is timeless, Link to the Past is timeless, whereas Ocarina of Time hasn't aged well.  Graphically it's ugly as sin, the controls are clunky as hell, and the game is full of things that just aren't good design choices.  for its time, it gets credit for managing to take Zelda into the 3rd dimension, but of all time, it's merely a stepping stone that has long since been surpassed in quality. 

Hell, I'd argue that, thanks to the controls, graphics, and design issues, it wasn't even all that good for its time.  Huge step back in fluidity and content from Link to the Past.  

Games that don't age well cannot be the best of all time, at best I'd be generous and say it was the best of its time, but I can think of a dozen games from its generation that were objectively better.  yes, Final Fantasy VII is one of them.  

But I for myself never liked any Super Mario Game, I didn´t liked them 15 years ago and I don´t like them today. I could that Fallout and Skyrim a crappy with aweful gameplay and buggy as hell, but then there are thousends of people who really liked the games and some of them that they are the best games of the Decade. It´s always up to the person what (s)he thinks is important in a game. 

You say Ocarina of Time had bad gameplay and I say it was good I liked it then and I like it now.
