They called it Celda and threw a shitfit over the artstyle. Those people were dumb. Wind Waker is awesome and so is its style

I wasn't a big fan of it when it first came out, but loved the game none the less. The art style has in retrospect helped it age much better.

I loved the art style. I also really liked the sound effects, the music, and the story.

It's the way these things always go. New game comes out and the last one was better. People trash it because it's new but before long suddenly it's now the last one that was better.

I never understood the hate for it. Game was phenomenal. Maybe the best in the series prior to BotW. Only flaw both games have is too few dungeons.

lol gameplay elements like fucking stopping, to turn on the while swinging. and fucking stopping to play music to change direction when sailing. calling it shit was an understatement.

I disliked the idea when it was announced, then I played it and it became one of my favorite zelda games.

WW taught me not to give a shit about edgy "dark" artstyle

As far as I remember, that attitude only prevailed until the next one came out and everyone went on and on about how great Wind Waker was. They re-released the game like four times, and people kept buying it, so it's obviously not a popular opinion. It's honestly just a case of 'it's new, so it sucks'.

Definitely my favorite Zelda game.

Whereas Twilight Princess, which was made in response to the negative reception that Wind Waker got, is one of my least favorite Zelda games.

They fixed having to stop to change wind direction in the HD version with the Swift Sail.

Always loved Wind Waker. Think it could be the fanbases near unanimously favorite if it did a couple more things.

Another dungeon or two
Make it slightly harder
The Wii U's fast sail was available on GC.

As it stands, the game is amazing. With those three though, it could be unarguably one of the best games of all time.

Oh no, there are still people that complain to this day about Wind Waker's Cell shading

Yes, but as I pointed out, they are not the majority anymore.

I hated it when it came out and I still hate it now. I bought it solely for the OoT Master Quest disc, but played through it once anyway.

At least it's better than Skyward Sword, though.

I was reluctant at first. I didn't like the art direction, but Wal Mart had the pre-order OoT disc, which you got when you put down the pre order deposit. Basically you got to buy GC OoT for $20, and got a $20-off coupon for WW. I originally planned to just buy OoT, but decided WW was worth a shot for $30 (I could always trade it in if I hated it).

Turns out I really enjoyed it, and my room mates liked jumping in as Tingle on the GBA and laying bombs all over the place. I still play it from time to time, it's probably my second favorite 3D Zelda.

This.

I liked the combat in WW. Dungeons were fun and the finale w Zelda vs Ganon. The tri force pieces at the end sucked real bad, no doubt.
