QTEs can be used well when used sparingly. Zelda has already dabbled with them with things like the Ending/Fatal Blow in Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword, the whole counter system in Wind Waker toes the line of what a QTE is, and maybe a couple of other instances that aren't on the top of my head.
I feel that QTEs are best utilized as a reward for something. They can feel pretty satisfying when they come at the end of something, like a period (or in some cases an exclamation mark) at the end of a sentence. If you fight a tough battle against a boss, especially the final boss, it's not bad to finish them off with a QTE.
This is probably a wasted effort on my part though since this thread seems to have been created for the sole purpose of ragging on The Order, a game I was tired of hearing about over 6 months ago.
