I was having a heated discussion with someone in another thread about which style should be considered "classic" Zelda.
I insist Zelda 1 is classic style Zelda which includes Breath of the Wild. Meaning open world, non linear gameplay.
But it seems to me most people consider A Link to the Past as "classic" style with a structured, linear path, I vehemently disagree with this however. I think it does a disservice to Zelda 1 and its legacy. Zelda 1 is truly a landmark title much like Breath of the Wild is.
I know I'm going to lose this poll because most younger gamers have never even looked at Zelda 1, which is really sad to me. But you really owe it to yourself to try and beat it at least one time. It's still a fantastic game that holds up a lot better than 99% of the games that came out in 1986/87.
It doesn't get more classic than this
