Today’s game is The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. today was exhausting and i really didn’t feel like continuing Jedi Fallen Order tonight (still loving the game though), so i decided to take it easy and play Ocarina Of Time. I have a lot of fond memories of this game ever since i played the 3DS remaster in middle school. I’d probably put it in my top ten games of all time. I played through quite a bit and made it to Dodongo’s Cavern. I’ve gotten kind of invested in this save so i may keep this up since i can milk a good 7 hours of battery life out of it on my steam deck and keep Fallen Order for when i’m at home on the Dock.
If you’re up for tinkering, there’s a decent bit of mods for ship of harkinian. You can replace models with the 3DS ones, or even with Twilight Princess ones. There’s also mods for higher resolution textures.
Lastly, check out all the settings. I forget what QoL are switched on by default, but there’s a good amount of QoL you can toggle, like putting boots on the d-pad for quick equipping and unequipping so the Water Temple doesn’t suck.

I also loved this game on the 3DS. I’ve recently been playing the N64 version as well, and I gotta say the 3DS version is so much better. I’m not sure what it is, but movement feels a lot less precise to me in the N64 version.
Also, I finally understand why everyone hates the water temple. The iron boots aren’t an item in this version, so you have to go to the equipment menu every time you want to put them on/take them off.

The iron boots mess is fixed in the PC (and etc) recompilation that OP is playing. Ship of Harkinian.
