I've tried to play it two times in the past 3 years or so, once on the N64 and once on the 3DS and couldn't force myself to play more than 3-4 hours. Skyward Sword on the Wii has one of the most boring beginnings in gaming history, it eventually picks up and has some great parts, but some other times it's also tedious and enfuriating. A Link Between Worlds on 3DS is the best I've played so far. It starts with a good pacing and never gets boring. An overall very solid game. It also waists less of your time with its stupid childish but wanna be epic story than other games in the series. |
I thought I wouldn't like Final Fantasy VII for the exact same reasons. And the end, I really enjoyed it. It's not the best game ever made, or even the best Final Fantasy, but I still loved it. So I don't think OoT will be a problem. And also, I love its OST, so I feel like I HAVE to play it.
Also, I don't mind "Childish" stories. Sometimes a childish story is worth a hundred wannabe dark, mature story. For example, Bravely Default. It's an amazing game, but its story is pretty childish.
Anyways, except for Skyward Sword, I really think I'm going to love pretty much every Zelda game.
I'll just wait until my Finals are over, and then I'll probably buy a WiiU.

I also don't mind "childish" stories. There are some "light" stories with a silly or fun touch, like the Ratchet & Clank games, the Crash series (PS1), LittleBigPlanet, NiNoKuni, or even Mario games.
But Zelda takes itself way too serious and is somewhere in the middle between cute and childish and epic, and didn't interest me at all.
I just think it's good to hear a not so positive opinion of Zelda since most of the opinions you will hear might be blended by nostalgia, which isn't my case.
But hey, this is of course my personal taste and I hope nobody gets offended by this
