people got over "omfg he's not dark and edgy and kewl" and "omfg i have add cant spend 2 minutes sailing" and "omfg a fetch quest in MY zelda??! wtfff"

admittedly the latter two are somewhat legitimate complaints, but the two combined definitely can't justify not liking the entire game as a whole

Twilight Princess diluted the N64 Zeldas' appeal, and this, along with how most Nintendo franchises are better when using a cartoony art style, is the reason why The Wind Waker now has its rightful popularity.

Well I suppose all the "realistic and violent" games out there make The Wind Waker stand out even more!

Also The Wind Waker has amazing atmosphere.

Whoa, a Zelda related post by LMS that doesn't call OoT overrated.

I agree about TWW's amazing atmosphere. It's why I love the game so much.

The game does have one of the worst fetch quests in any game ever, but the final battle makes up for it.

I wouldn't quite consider it top five of all time but it's close for me.

Yes, it was that list that got me thinking of The Wind Waker more, but I feel better considering WW to be my favorite 3D Zelda than I do consider OoT or MM to be that.

Horrible game, people only defend it because it's Zelda and Nintendo.

The Wind Waker was the exact moment Nintendo went to hell. Nintendo realized they don't actually have to put forth effort to sell millions of games, and they haven't made a good game since.


Even if you hate the game, you do like the final battle, right?

Getting back on topic, how do you say Wind Waker has amazing atmosphere when it has the worst visuals of any of the 3D Zelda titles and the second worst soundtrack? Aside from the ending the entire game just feels so uninspired and bland.

I'm not sure that "popular" is the correct term in any case. Some people swear by it, but overall it only enjoys midling levels of popularity within the series, even now.

Ok it looks ugly and overly simple by virtue of its design, a cartoon based game isn't going to have as good of shading as other styles so you need more going on to please the eye, but it's still bland.
