The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time
OOT is shorthand for the "Ocarina of Time" installment in "The Legend of Zelda" series, which is an iconic action-adventure game developed by Nintendo for the Nintendo 64 (N64) console and released in 1998. Its gameplay revolves around a young hero named Link as he journeys to save the land of Hyrule from the evil sorcerer Ganondorf by acquiring the power of the mystical Triforce.
Gamers are likely the only ones aware of the OOT (Ocarina of Time) shorthand. It is very well known in the gaming community due to its various pioneering elements (e.g., its "lock-on" targeting system and groundbreaking immersive open-world design). Because of these aspects, OOT maintains a dedicated fan base that frequently ranks it as one of the greatest video games ever.

Out of topic
In online forums, people use OOT to state that a post is "out of topic." This means the post is inappropriate for the current thread or discussion board, and so should be moved, disregarded, or deleted.
For example, if you are discussing the MCU in a politics-free forum, and another user posts about an upcoming IRL election, others may tell that user their post is OOT. You may also see a moderator delete the user's post, for breaking the forum's rules.
In other instances, you may see people use OOT to describe their own post, when they know that post is off-topic. For example, in that same MCU-focused forum, a user may post "I know this is OOT, but what do you all think of the upcoming DCU movies?"

OOT is one of many "out of" acronyms, including OOO (out of office) and OOH (out of here). You can see even more OOcronyms in the Related Slang section below.
