Twilight Princess is my favorite Zelda game, close to being my favorite game of all time, but The Thousand Year Door is my favorite game of all time, it has everything I've ever wanted in a game. Parrying, crafting with the recipes, a Bestiary, RPG, little bit of platforming, tons of optional lore dumps, plenty of secrets. Never really told to you by the player, until you get an optional party member. Said optional party member allows you to still items from enemies. Overall, it's just a masterpiece of a game.
