Before we get into this I'm not here to incite anger amongst the community. This is purely subjective (of course) but I'm on the Internet a lot during my spare time and whenever Zelda is mentioned there is usually one or more fans who say that MM is the best of the series. Why is that? I've played it before and yes it is a good game but it never held my attention for an extended period of time, whereas Ocarina of Time, The Wind Waker, and A Link to the Past kept me coming back for more.
Thinking about it my biggest gripe about Majora's Mask was that it was timed. In adventure games the last thing I want to deal with is a time limit. I want to explore every nook and cranny, I want to talk to the inhabitants, and I want to soak in the world around me. The original Pikmin turned me off from this same mechanic.
So why do you consider it the best Zelda game? If you don't, why does it have such a huge cult following?
