The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Review

Wind Waker is a phenomenally designed game, sadly rejected by a lot of people around its release due to the Spaceworld demo in 2000 [1] that left people clamouring for a 'realistic' looking Zelda title. Thankfully over time it has become regarded as one of the best Zelda titles.

I think its graphic style will continue to hold up far better than some of the other titles well into the future. The fact that we can look back at the Spaceworld demo and laugh at how dated it looks is proof enough.

I think people rejected it because spending so much time sailing over empty water gets tiring.

Get the HD version for Wii U, it has a feature to boost the boat.

Valid point, it's definitely not without its flaws. It's still one of my favourite Zelda games though.
