You'll find roughly the same amount of hate for any Zelda if you dig hard enough (sans Zelda 2, but that game kicked the shit out of people). It's ot like FF12 where it's unusually divisive. Some people just don't like certain games. I feel that they are worse off for it, but it can't be helped. |
Nah, it's just the Zelda Cycle at work. Ever since Majora's Mask, there has been an angry sect of people that spend all of their time bashing the most recent Zelda game. When the next game comes out, they all move to that and bash it to death while their opinion on the previous game does a drastic 180.
Case in point - Wind Waker. Even after the whining over the visuals died down and the game came out, it was viciously attacked as being a "watered down" Zelda. Now that Twilight Princess is here, most of them have changed their tune. There's a lot more people out there calling WW a masterpiece now, while TP gets knocked for having too big an overworld, dungeons that are 'too long,' cutscenes that are 'too epic,' etc.
