As a gamer, I can’t help but feel the weight of tragedy that envelopes “Zelda: Ocarina of Time.” It all starts with an invitation to visit the Great Deku Tree, who shares his fear of a curse spreading across the land. He entrusts me, Link, with the monumental task of preventing Ganondorf from gaining access to the sacred realm and restoring balance to Hyrule.
The journey is filled with responsibilities that seem to pile up on my young shoulders. From stopping Ganondorf, healing nature, to completing various quests, it’s a burden that a child should never bear. The themes in this game are heavy, but the loss of innocence and childhood freedom is what really tugs at my heartstrings.
