But all the games you've named, except for Mario, are pretty story driven. Each of them tells you where you need to go and why (especially Corruption, which is very dynamic). Link's character isn't what's important here - you're supposed to care about the people around you, the citizens of Ordon, and how you interact with them. You're defined by your relationship to them, rathher than anything Link says, which is a relatively novel way of doing things in the context of today's game market. Samus is characterized in much the same way.
There's no way you got that far into Twilight Princess; Ganondorf isn't mentioned until a good chunk of the way through the game, and doesn't actually appear until the very very very end.
If you want a lot of characterization and whatnot, try Wind Waker.
Are you one of those people who will try to tell me with a straight face that Darksiders is superior to Zelda?

Thats the thing, i don't know why ganandorf is evil, and your right i didn't really see him all that much. I got up to the part with the three mirrors. I stopped at the first mirror. And i saw my friend beat the last dungeon (SPOILERS*the final boss battle was really good, not ganon, but the horse ride). You don't interact with the citizens around you, and your not playing as them. The only time when i actually cared about saving anyone was in the town where you had to save the children and there was fire that you had to get around in wolf form (sorry my memory is meh). Because i actually spent some good time with them, they are your friends, and they matter.
The whole time you are asked to save Hyrule/Twilight with the help of these Gods(Shiny lights) and i just didn't care about it. I think that Link should have more personality, or maybe give ganandorf a better back story. Why is he evil? Why does he hide in a dungeon while link gets stronger? There is no emotion, no impact of killing ganadorf ( when you do). And i never said that Darksiders is superior to Zelda. Its pretty close though. And i would pick it over Zelda any day. (I should try out windwaker though when i have the time). If you haven't played Darksiders you should. It lacks in presentation, but the gameplay and the story are there.

You can't pass comment on the way the story is built when you've seen less than 10% of it. If you only got the first mirror shard, then you barely saw any of the game at all. Your judgment concerning impact and emotion is necessarily hindered.
I own Darksiders, and I can't think of a single respect in which I prefer it to Zelda.

I finished like 4-5 dungeons. If i finish 4-5 dungeons in game, and it hasn't pulled me in. There is a problem with the story telling.
Edit: maybe you misunderstood where i was in the game.
