Now, I think the main reason people want a remake of Ocarina reason people want a remake of Ocarina reason people want a remake of Ocarina of Time is because the game feels, quote of Time is because the game feels, quote of Time is because the game feels, quote unquote, outdated. And people say it's unquote, outdated. And people say it's unquote, outdated. And people say it's outdated in terms of the visuals, the outdated in terms of the visuals, the outdated in terms of the visuals, the graphics, the controls, the progression.
