Majora's Mask is my favorite game. Not just favorite Zelda, but favorite game, period. It always breaks my heart to see people not being able to enjoy it the way I enjoy it, because there's so much excellent storytelling in that game. While Nintendo deconfirmed the "stages of grief" fan theory, it's still a lot more fun playing through the game with that theory in mind, because it truly fits the game so well, and adds a lot of depth to the experience.
For what it's worth, the 3DS version is far superior to the original N64 release. Lots of QoL improvements (though I'm actually not a fan of how the bosses were redesigned) and some progression elements were streamlined a bit. I feel like most people playing MM for the first time are doing themselves a disservice playing the original.
