This looks pretty bad so far, but I will wait for metacritic user reviews before deciding.
BTW I am a big Zelda fan but I cringed when I first heard of this game.

Edit: I also predict the ghastly CEL shading of the next Wii U Zelda will cause a financial disaster. It's like these designers don't have basic common sense.

All things being equal, 74 is a great score for a musou game.

IMHO Destiny has had more word of mouth and advertising expenditures (I see commercials constantly).

They are both crap metacritic scores in my opinion (though still waiting on user reviews for Hyrule Warriors) and I won't get burned like I did back with Diablo 3. Never again.

BTW Destiny is at like 6.6 user score: http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-4/destiny

We still haven't seen Hyrule Warriors user score. Hopefully it's better than 6.6.

Anyway, I would trust the users over critics any day of the week.

I don't trust anyone, user reviews--especially for big releases--are overflowing with trolls.

That's what I thought about Diablo 3. Boy was I wrong. It really is that bad (3.9): http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/diablo-iii/user-reviews

As expected, this is a warriors game after all. But it seems more polished (and with less content)

That kind of helps my point more, scores of those reviews are most certainly 0s stemming from nothing more than the real money auction house, many likely from people who have never even touched the game; another problem inherent to user reviews. Not that blizzard didn't have it coming to them, mind you, but I never liked the diablo series to begin with.
