That’s definitely the vibe I got with it while playing. There were a few moments where I stopped and went “Wow, this reminds me of OoT”

Just finished it again the other day playing via Dusklight. I agree, I have a lot of complaints, but somehow it still hits pretty good. I think it feels a lot more like a direct sequel to Ocarina of Time. If I played them out of order and you told me Wind Waker came out first I wouldn’t believe you.

Well there’s another one that’s way closer to OoT in release date and actually a direct sequel chronologically, and it was already a lot more of a departure from OoT than Wind Waker was IMO.
Wind Waker still had mostly the basic progression of a classic Zelda game (with a bit more optional exploration and the odd sunken triforce quest that felt a bit like padding). Majora’s Mask only technically has dungeons (and only 4 of them) that you just integrate like the rest of the world in your time management plans anyway.
But yeah, agreed that TP was an almost completely straight application of the classic formula in comparaison to both MM and WW.
