4.5/5
It's rare that a game fully captivates my attention for an entire playthrough without feeling like a chore, and Wind Waker did just that! Every single second playing this game was enjoyable, something of which is strongly carried by the fun gameplay and cel shaded graphics.
Everything in this game, down to the sidequests, is an overall good time. From capturing photos to deep sea treasure hunting, this game keeps you exploring, wanting you to see what the developers crammed into this game.
As well, the story doesn't fall in line with the conventional Zelda timeline that we all know of, instead, deviating into its own, thusly creating entirely new basis on what you're trying to achieve, ending with the inevitable triforce and defeating of Ganondorf.
The story of Wind Waker is comedic, tense, and fascinating. One second, you're just a boy who earns his stripes wearing the green heros tunic, the next you're riding a boat that talks to you and guides you through the game... It's simple and easy to understand, however it's a pleasant experience to progress and see how it unfolds.
I loved playing this game. There's nothing much more to say, but I will note that the reason this game isn't 5 stars... Is that I found that constantly using what the games named after "the Wind Waker" actually got a little annoying, especially during the Wind and Earth temples. No game can be perfect, but this one is pretty high up there.
