I LOVE it. I think it's fantastic, and yet, it's actually my 3rd favorite Zelda game (after OoT3D and TP).

What prevents it from being my favorite are the fights against The Imprisoned--he's not "hard," I just don't like the structure and gameplay of those fights, as in general I'm just not a big fan of "time-limits" in games, especially Zelda--and a few other nit-picky things such as not being able to name your Loftwing (who doesn't want a giant red bird named Epona?), the soundtrack while beautiful, epic, and appropriately "cinematic" so much of the time just ultimately doesn't have as many tuneful melodies or memorable themes as other Zeldas, and the fact that the overworld isn't connected--it wouldn't have been THAT difficult for the developers to make it so you could travel between them or all the way around ON FOOT.

Like I said though, those are very nit-picky things and it's ultimately just the timed pressure of repetitive Imprisoned battles that make me dock it a bit. It's still a very near MASTERPIECE and easily makes my top 10 games of all time.
