For all my talk of Ocarina of Time being an overrated Zelda game, it’s definitely not without good qualities. The most prominent one that comes to my mind is versatility. Not only has the 1998 title stood the test of time by remaining an accessible and playable classic to this day, it makes a fantastic canvas for randomizers and various modded versions. Vidya James, a Zeldathon member and Twitch streamer, recently showcased a version of Ocarina of Time where young…
A few days ago, my good friend Ike over on Twitter sent me an idea pitch to spotlight streamer and content creator TriFelicia. Ike was really passionate about her ongoing series of videos over on TikTok covering theories on Tears of the Kingdom, of which she has done over a hundred!

Released only two years after Ocarina of Time, it was an amazing achievement in the gaming industry to put out a game that quickly as a follow-up to the success of its predecessor. Its three-day cycle that affected gameplay, its numerous side quests that focused on characterization, and its darker themes of loss, grief, and even death make it unique among the Zelda series, let…
When I think of iconic places from Ocarina of Time, Goron City is easily one of the most memorable. From its importance in the story, to the route that leads back to the Lost Woods, to the “secret” entrance to Death Mountain Crater from Darunia’s chamber, Goron City is a vital location. There’s also plenty of iconic items that one can acquire from the Goron legs of the quest, such as the Megaton Hammer or the Goron Tunic. One rather…
