Zelda remains a critical darling, certainly, but how much hate does Skyward Sword receive on this very site, both from the Nintendo community and from others (often for quite different reasons). The game gets savaged from multiple perspectives, and others do too. Similar to what Sales2099 said, too, except beyond the camps that feel that Zelda isn't "modern enough", whether in terms of trying something more open-world or embracing voice acting, there's a very vocal segment that feels Zelda is too modern already, and should more closely adhere to the formulas of the NES and SNES games.

Isn't that the purpose of Link between worlds? Appease the older fanbase so that there's less complaining when Zelda adopts some more modern game mechanics?

I'm playing devil's advocate, as i do not hold these views, but the idea in some circles is that the "3D" Zeldas shouldn't even be made, massive production values for not that much actual returns compared to 2D Sales potential (which is not to say that 2D sells better, but the cost/benefit ratio is more skewed in its favor)
