While I definitely respect it, and like it quite a bit, it's not in my top 5. It wasn't my first Zelda so I don't have a ton of Nostalgia for it, which I think is part of the reason this game has such a huge reputation. I played Wind Waker first, and then OOT, and Wind Waker just impressed me more in every way. Bigger, better combat, better dungeons, butter visuals, better music, etc. Wind Waker is to me as OOT is to most people.
I can definitely respect it though. Looking at it in comparison to other games of the time, it's clearly special.
