I'm curious about the fediverse's opinion: Best 3D Zelda game?
@Felthry Link's Awakening is 3D now, this list is incomplete (also, um... Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks, and ALBW???)
@pillowcat I count those as 2D zelda games, since they have the top-down gameplay style rather than the mobile-camera thing the others do
@Felthry completely arbitrary distinction and falls apart when applied to ALBW, but whatevs
@pillowcat Hmm, I guess it does, I forgot about the wall merging sections
Anyway I was going to list all of the zelda games and they didn't all fit (this instance has a limit of ten poll options) so I had to split them somehow, so I went with the full 3D ones and the not full 3D ones, since they have distinct play styles
@pillowcat (by that logic adventure of link should have been in its own category but a poll with one option is kind of pointless)
@Felthry It's strictly 2D because even though it has different planes upon which the gameplay occurs, neither of those planes have any particular relativity to each other or even the slightest bit of cohesion in a 3D space. The same is pretty much true for the original Legend of Zelda, Link's Awakening (when counting the remake as more of a 2.5D game), and Oracle of Seasons, all of which contain 2D side-scrolling segments.
