There's been a lot of BOTW slander as of late.
I guess it's because people see the changes in TotK and actually realise how many things were cut in BotW. Honestly, it still doesn't deserve the slander.

Sure, it could be better but BotW is still a great game which is basically the "demo" of TotK. It's unfortunate that we didn't get the original version of the divine beasts or more items or more balanced weapon system but if it wasn't the case, we wouldn't get TotK tbh. And if they didn't cut the content, we would have easily waited 8 - 9 years for BotW.

A Link Between Worlds being the only S Tier is honestly based, probably the Zelda that nails the fundamentals of Zelda more than any other without implementing any questionable or lackluster mechanics.

Though of course Majora is still the best Zelda.
Imo I'd put almost all A Tier Zelda games on S Tier. There is only Zelda II in C Tier and maybe Four Swords imo.
 
I agree with Donald.

Minish Cap is easy S tier and the best top down Zelda.

Is ALBW that highly thought of? Gotta be honest, didn’t think it was brilliant, but I only played through it once. Much preferred ALTTP.

Anyway, my ranking.



For the record, C-tier Zelda still very enjoyable.

ST has to be D-tier because the flute is garbage, ruins what is otherwise a solid game.

I thought Zelda II was just trash when I played it.
I would put botw in S tier with TP.

Man, I go back and forth with TP. I absolutely adore it, one of my favourite memories is getting a Wii at Christmas, had it and Wii Sports on it.

In fact, dunno what I’m second guessing myself for, TP in S Tier. Might just be nostalgia, but that’s also the reason that Minish Cap is there so go with it.

Can’t put BotW in there cause of the terrible dungeons. TotK, though, that’s an exciting prospect.

i tired playing that but it was too frustrating single player, but i could make link wear a dress so it was worth it
I tried it in single player, it was not amusing. In that case, Four Swords Adventure was waaaaay better.
Hey, at least you guys tried it, only Zelda I’ve ever noped straight out of. Can’t really believe that it counts as a mainline one. Possibly the last ever top down mainline one.

I played a version of one of the Four Swords that got released for the DSi as like an e-shop app, but I don’t think it was the same as the full release? I know Vaati is meant to be in Four Swords and I don’t remember him being in it. Was a fun little game though.

Haven’t played FSA but I’ve always felt the Minish Cap graphics with an extra boost for the gamecube was gorgeous graphics.

SS in B Tier but MM/WW in S Tier wtf

The time system and the shitty temples were trash.Atmo is great and Majora is cool but thats it.Never finishd the Game

How in the world is WW S Tier with that shitty Triforce search?Glad YT exist and even with that it was a timewaste and boring.Otherwise a good Game.A-

TP was maybe good but for me its a E Tier because i had on the Wii AND Wii U the same gamebreaking Bug.Unable to pick up the last lightorb in the Zora Part.Fuck that shit

S Tiers for me: ALbW,SS and ALttP
OoT is A Tier.Fucking water temple can go to hell
BotW is C Tier,if not D Tier
Zelda 2 is Zelda 2 Tier
 
man I wish I could complete BOTEW but I get so burnt out after a 20-25 hours

I love the prologue area so much. I love going back to replay it but I find it really hard to continue after it

Hope Tears of Kingdom is better in this regard
