You basically said nothing that disproved what I said nor is anyone saying it's not a great game, I've pointed out OOT's praise mainly stems from it's technical achivements I.E what impacted the industry and not from anything it did for the approach of the series which is true. Story, struture and approach wise the game was blow for blow practically the same as ALTTP it's just that OOT had the 3D technical achivements behind it, all the games after OOT with the exception of TP made significant changes to the approach and structure.

Like I wrote, Zelda OoT was almost perfect, because it was great in every possible way (story, pacing, music, graphic, epic sense, battles, dungeons, bosses...) even if you compared it to all later 3D Zelda games, every one had some part that was worse and or even better, while OoT is complete package almost perfect game, and OoT is still considered for most "complete" Zelda game.  While in same time doing so many things for 1st time in gaming industry and set some standards for whole industry. Thats why Zelda OoT is highest rating game ever with 99 score.

No mate don't use your opinion as fact OOT is not perfect in every way the are flaws and for most part the game relies heavily off the approach of ALTTP almost to a tee the only difference is that it had the luxury of jumping into 3D first, any 3D Zelda could have released back then and the same result would have happened.

All OOT did for the industry was shown them how to properly design a game in 3D, Mario 64 was actually the game that introduced many of the things that defined and are the foundations of OOT's technical acheievments as it showed how to create and an actual 3D world.
