Yeah, yeah. I know this will get a lot of eyes rolling (Zelda and story wtf) and the like, but I still want to discuss this. I know most of Neogayf, namely the likes of Amir0x or Dragona would just start talking about WW having the best story because Link was so kawaii^_^ and shit, missing the point of story completely, so it's best to talk about it here (oh, and the fact that I'm banned there, lolz).
But yeah, first of all, I'm in no way saying that I thought WW had a bad story. In fact, I thought it was charming and pretty great overall. But seriously, how was it a breakthrough in storytelling, and what did it do that wasn't been done with the previous 3D Zelda games? The only noteworthy thing was humanizing Ganon. Other than that, there was nothing worth mentioning.
Discuss?
And let's keep this civil, plz. OR ELSE! :punch
Edit: Actually, now that I think about it, this applies to TP as well.

what what in the butt

I could barely keep myself awake when playing ocarina of time
-
Ganondorf got stabbed in the head by Link and he said cool words.

...okay?
Ganondorf got stabbed in the head
Yeah, that's the other thing that gets mentioned, yet I don't know what that has to do with evolving story in any way either.

Just thought id share my uniform thought of zelda in 3d.
Zelda 2d has a special place in my heart however :heartbeat
-
I liked the flood story and hyrule underwater. - it was just nice.
-
it had a lot of sidequests, dialogue was less crappy, eyes were funny.
it did something for me.
actually I have no idea what was special about the story but the presentation was really good and story was actually not bad for a fantasy game or zelda. Presentation is the most important thing though and it did that pretty well.

:lol
You have to be kidding me. It does have the most story focus, next to shit tastic TP's god awful plot.

Wind Waker > TP

HEY I'M A DANGEROUS LOOKING VILLIAN 90% OF THE GAME AND THEN OUT OF NOWHERE I TURN INTO A FUCKING BUMBLING CLOWN ONLY TO GIVE OPPORTUNITY TO REGURGITATE THE SAME VILLIAN YOU'VE FOUGHT 9999 X BEFORE.
Good job Nintendo. Do yourselves a favor and hire a damn writer you hacks.

Wind Waker is the best Zelda game

Wind Waker is the best Zelda game
The correct answer is "Link's Awakening." "Link's Awakening." But we would have accepted "A Link To The Past" too. Thanks for playing; we have some lovely parting gifts for you.

2D Zelda > 3D Zelda

Capcom 2D Zelda > Nintendo 2D Zelda

TWW is better than TP easily.
The 2D stuff makes the 3d games look shitty in comparison of course.

:heartbeat Oracles :heartbeat

dialogue was less crappy
Nope. Dialogue was about the same.
:lol

Where did I say TP had a better story? In fact, I even mentioned that it could be said about TP as well. I really didn't like it.

you have me for the rest of forever

They say that because the characters have more going on. Zelda is an active character who has a role of her own, and Gannondorf actually says something and is sympathetic enough that you would like to see him in his own game, based on the events he speaks of in WW.
It's really not that hard to figure out why people say WW had the best Zelda story.

You're my new best friend.

Erm..she was way more of an active character in OoT.

I wouldn't say so. Shiek has less face time than pirate girl, and pirate girl goes back to piratign afterwards while Zelda is just Zelda in oot.

Zelda in Wind Waker > all other Zelda's.
