She was great, but I wish in the game we actually got to fight her after the fight with Ganon. I mean, she had all those awesome powers to STUN the beast then just lets him turn her into a painting after he gets owned by Link.

Yuga/Ganon was just playing her hand, since he couldn't get the Triforce of Wisdom from Zelda herself. From what I understood in the ending, Hilda was so consumed in getting her kingdom back, she failed to see that Yuga had become so much stronger than her (plus, since she basically was the opposite of what the Triforce of Wisdom stood for, it was much easier for him to capture Hilda in her raging state).

I'm glad we didn't get to fight her, the reveal about Ravio was utterly brilliant IMO and came just at the right time.

All that is true, but wouldn't it have been easier to get rid of Link after he first made it to the Dark World, or just let him get the triforce of courage altogether, assuming Yuga knew about it?

Maybe I just liked the big twist of Hilda being a villain more than Yuga's betrayal, which was so predictable. That said, the whole final battle was awesome especially the light arrow sequence hitting Yuga from behind.

Hilda needed link to obtain the Triforce of Courage, since she wanted to recreate whole of the Triforce Lorule had lost, by stealing Hyrule's Triforce. Having Zelda with Wisdom, Yuga/Ganon with Power, if link hadn't obtained Courage, her plan would have been for nothing, because she couldn't rely on Ravio to do it as he was too much of a coward to do it.

Going through with the ending as it is, A.K.A - Zelda&Link wishing for Lorule to recover their own Triforce, I get a feeling that Aonuma will try to incorporate Lorule into the Zelda Lore more proeminently in the future. At least I hope he does.

So many spoiler tags. Fifty Shades of Grey would be proud .
