Your right, OoT did it twice as good, but WW was still great for me. Tetra being Zelda and her acting so unprincessly and totally tomboyish was still pretty funny and surprising! Plus she didn't even like Link in the First place from the beginning!

3D ones, no. 2D yes. Bottom line, its a very rich game, and loaded with action. I can't get enough of it. I know by this time next year i'm EASILY going to log over 100 hrs in this game, especially with all the DLC coming. only smash bros can hinder my playing time.

But it was still funny since she had a bias towards Link in the beginning. I totally wasn't seeing a tomboyish, mischeivious, slobby female pirate being the descendant of the graceful,wise, and beautiful Princess Zelda, wielder of the Light Arrows! Plus she helped owned Gannon like a BAWSE at the end! Wasn't helpless there!

She became boring after that twist, I didn't like that...at least she was useful at the end

It is Zelda and Hyrule and Link... but they are two different type of games...

But NO. Zelda main series has a greater depth... in every possible way!

I don't think so... This had me thinking a bit though. But Hyrule Warriors is a great game on its own merits in my opinion. I'm having a lot of fun with it at least.

The sailing in WW was really, really anti-fun to me. Taking on whole armies and controlling the battlefield in HW, on the other hand, was very enjoyable.

No. I'm enjoying Hyrule Warriors, but not as much as any 'proper' Zelda game. It's a really good spin off and I'm getting a surprising amount of play-time out of it, and I'm considering the dlc too, so it has done a lot right--but for me, Zelda games are the holy grail of gaming.

I said no, but then I realized the DS games were sort of 3D, so...yes, actually. I also enjoyed it more than some 2D Zeldas. The Four Swords games come to mind.
