Well, I agree with you on most parts, but I think the story is awesome. You just have to pay attention to get the meaning.

Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

After owning LOZ The WindWaker HD for 8 month, I finally finished the game yesterday. I didnt play it when I first got it cuz I was so busy with Pokemon and LBW.

I never had the chance to play th original and was waiting to play this, but Pokemon is just way to powerful to resist.

Anyways, after a while I finally played it and enjoyed it, until and I repeat until I reached the Triforce shards quest.

WHO THE HELL EVER THOUGHT ABOUT ADDING THIS!?

I have no idea how is it even possible to finish this quest without a walkthrough. Is it even possible ?

So I stopped playing cuz apparently I hate following walkthroughs. I can check a thing or two, but following one for a whole quest is just so boring and painful for me.

I finally decided to finish it and i'd like to say the puppet boss fights were great, especially figuring out how to beat the spider.

So here are my thoughts.

Pros: Best combat in the series, great soundtrack as always, stunning visuals and Toon Link's reactions are just awesome.

Cons:Bad story, INCREADIBLY EASY! Horrible boss fights! Puppets are the only exception. A big useless world that ended up frustrating me.

I know the game has Hero mode,but the enemies themselves are still going to fight the same way and bosses are still awful.

I feel like I am missing something in the Triforce quest, but I didnt find any hints.

This could have been one of the best Zeldas, but for me (OPINION) it is the worst 3D Zelda; nevertheless, it is still awesome.

This is pretty much how people felt back in the day. Good Zelda, not great. You are spot on.

I don't understand why people say the story of Wind Waker is awesome if it lacks depth and more character development. In this case, it's just an excuse to advance throughout the game. But Zelda is like that, so I don't complain that much.

Why do you think its so bad?

It's not that it's bad, it's ok. A lack of depth in plot, complexity in the ambient or deeper characters don't necessarily that a story is bad. But Zelda stories are just "excuses" to incentive the player to progress in the game. Again, it's not bad.

My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.
