Within a "generation" most of the games tend to have similar controls, abilities, and items, so you end up getting fairly similar experiences. Each new generation tends to bring an entirely different gameplay experience to the table. OoT was notable because the jump from 2D to 3D let Nintendo do a lot of things that could give veterans of the 2D Zelda games a novel experience.
Incidentally, this is somewhat reflected in the first game of each generation being the most memorable to people (OoT is the most well-remembered N64/GC 3D Zelda game, Link's Awakening is the most well-remembered GB Zelda game while Oracles of Seasons/Ages were pretty forgettable, etc.). To back this up, my favorite 3D and 2D Zelda games are Majora's Mask and Link's Awakening, those being the first two I played. I was under the impression that Link to the Past was one of the most fondly remembered 2D games, though.

Link's Awakening dark horse contender for best Zelda.

Top 4 again :D. I wonder if I can find a way to stream

Is final fantasy V worth buying for a phone? Mostly from a story point of view. I tried 3 and didnt enjoy it, but love the later games e.g 6, 7, 8 and 9.
Nexus 4 if that helps.

If only you had access to some sort of omnipresent system that links your computer to countless others...

Nexus 4 if that helps. Shouldn't need to buy it... there are free SNES emulator apk's floating around the internet that can play FF4.
Woops misread. You said FF5. But same thing applies except use GBA emulator.

Maybe he's talking about stuff like his ISP? I know I barely have 0.8 Mbps upload, which apparently is too low to stream (from the sound of it, upload in general is shitty in France's bids).
FF V is... well, it's formulaic. It's way better for the system than for the story, although it has several good moments, the characters aren't really developped apart from maybe 2 or 3, and the story is classic save from 1-2 twists (+ another one you'll see coming if you know the FFs enough).

Nexus 4 if that helps. combat and class systems are superb, maybe the best of the series, story is terrible terrible terrible even for final fantasy. not much else to say about it. I liked it.

Ok cheers, think I'll probably give that a miss then. Are there any good story driven rpgs on android?

Streaming locally doesn't drop frames! You'll see my semi and hopefully finals from my PoV.

Reminds me of tales of symphonia, which I think reminded me of another game as well.

That's because the whole "4 crystals" stuff is what I referred to as formulaic, and it's easy to phase it out because of this, basic/classical FF stuff, you don't pay much attention to it. There's some more story later, although it remains without much exposition. It gives you elements, the canvas, and you get to fill in the blanks yourself, it doesn't lay out all the details or anything to you. And it's still quite simple.
Playing Shizune's route in KS, I picked up on Hisao really acting like a dick, especially toward Hideaki. At first I thought badly of it, but then I reminded myself that I often rant about the lack of flaws in main characters, in the "outright dislikable" sense, and here I am provided with one, who has bad sides without being designed to be hated—in fact, the game doesn't even ever tell you that he's right or a paragon. It tells you his opinion, and you're free to think that he's dumb as a brick or an asshole.
Two scenes later is Jigoro's stage entrance. Welp, way to make me eat my words. The art teacher was a tad too strong on the negative scale, but really? How can you make it more obvious that we're supposed to think the guy's a massive jerk? He doesn't even have Kenji's excuse of being a comic relief character (and in the latter's case, how absurdly far it's pushed also serves as a contrast to underline the occasions where he made sense). He had some nice lines, though, but they were almost only calling out Hisao on dumb thing he'd say.
Also the letter arrived way later in that route. It's not much, it's just that since the different events were mostly cohesive across routes, I'm a bit disappointed that it didn't stuck.

Jigoro isn't a bad guy, even though he's obnoxious, and he proves that a couple times. But I think he was there as comedy relief, for the most part
