Also apparently Castlevania? But im no expert

Also i can think of three movie franchises with the opposite perception of the second entry: The Godfather, Star Wars, and Shrek.

I dont think Majora's Mask was poorly recieved? Its certainly very well regarded today.

I was under the impression that it was. Surely any game that old would only have positive discourse remaining today, because who else even cares?

The other ones mentioned in the title all still have negative discourse today so i wouldnt say that is so.

Tbh ive seen very little negative discourse around MM, and i was in the target demo when it came out, besides people like me who dont like the three day mechanic. But my experience is that we're a minority who just get told to do reverse song of time.

When people talk about the worst game in the franchises in the title, the second games are very often the answer. Noone says MM is the worst Zelda. In fact its usually in contention for the best.

It received acclaim by critics, not as highly praised as OoT, but the magic of pulling off a perfect transition to 3D can only strike once.
