Don't get me wrong. I always did think that OoT was overrated, but wow, I never thought someone, especially someone like Arin, to say something like, "THERE'S TOO MUCH WAITING AAAA". Hold on, let me just look back at his tragic wind waker lp, where every time he skips important dialogue, he runs in circles for 3 episodes.
Just a silly opinion, but I lost a lot of respect for Arin after some of his Game Grumps moments
He could have instead talked about other underlying problems with the game, where the overall design is just poor. Such as the water temple or lost woods 2nd visit. Or maybe he could've talked about how hyrule field is just a big empty level hub with nothing that important on it. But no. He just channels his own impatience and complains about chest opening, switch hunting, and defensive enemies.
THEN he goes a step forward and implies that OoT took the series in a negative direction, with skyward sword being the epitome of all bad things zelda. All I can say is: Majora's Mask. That game was a direct improvement from OoT. Yes, the time system turns some people off, but it makes the world feel truly alive. It's the kind of exploration someone like Arin would want, because the world's changes over the 3 days, rewarding you for completing optional objectives that can be solved only through initiative and searching. But no. Arin hates waiting.
