You was five!? Dont get me wrong, but with 5 years you can't understand or play game like OoT, you could not even to read. I currently have 5 year old kid and he definitely couldn't play OoT without help.

I was around 16, and I couldn't believe that game like that exist, I couldn't compare it with anything. For record, before N64, I had Commodore 64, Sega Master System, NES, SMII, Super Nintendo and PS1, so I was already pretty skilled player with lotsa experience.

...You couldn't read at 5?

The language in the dialog of OoT wasn't difficult to read or understand. It was Rated E for a reason. I did have help. I had a 10 year old cousin, but he mostly helped me through the "scary" parts I didn't like playing. (I fucking hate going through Hyrule Field at night to this day because of the zombie wolves) I only had my NES before that, and didn't need reading to beat most of Zelda 1 on it. Again, my cousin helped when I had trouble, but that was a rare occurance.

That's what I always talk about though. Games now treating kids like they're idiots. OoT and Majora's mask weren't even remotely difficult to understand at that age. It's a cartoon villian with a cartoon plot line. It's not a remotely deep or complicated narrative to follow at all.

I agree with you, OoT is playable at 5
