ha ive been wondering this for a while now too. I still havent found out why however, but my brother is as close of an example i can give, so here it is. He is 2 years older than me (im 15... which would make him 17) and thus he beat OoT about a year before i did. I have beat OoT twice, and believe that it is the best game on the market still lol. Once Twilight princess came out, i was psyched that a new game similiar to OoT could capture me like it did. i played through the whole thing in about 3 weeks, most of my playing coming in huge portions of about 6 hours (beat it and acquired magical armor in about 30 hours i think). i thought that the game was great at staying with what got them OoT, but keeping it fresh enough so that i wasnt bored of the same old thing. heres where my bro comes in. he began Twilight, but never got far, claiming that he did not like it. when i ask him why, he never has an answer and just refers to how great OoT was.
This had led me to believe that Ocarina of Time was such a perfect game, many people who played it will not even be able to touch another zelda game, because all they can think about is how great OoT is and how the game they are playing doesnt compare.
I guess the only way to stop this is to create a game better than OoT. is that even possible?
