Really enjoying the game. Some times it feels too unfair but you cant always have things go your way. Be cautious, because 1 mistake can turn things around quickly.
It is a great game and the fact that you can play it portably is mind blowing. In my mind it deserves a 8 because even though i enjoyed the experience, it failed to make me love it as much as i feel like it wants me too. I was hooked for the first 3 weeks but by the end of it i was just craving some Ocarina of Time for the timeless story telling and Don't Starve Together for the open world, survival, and crafting (plus I can play that with a friend). Verdict: most love it, few hate it, I enjoyed it.
I love the dark tone of this game. Even though it shows it's age due to it being a Wii game, it doesn't bother me one bit. I think that (just like Ocarina of Time) Twilight Princess is one of those games that video gamers should play through at least once.
The game looks and plays great, but there are a few minor things that it forgot to borrow from the Wii version to allow it to reach higher greatness. Team matches feel a little off now, due to friendly fire - just to name one - having the option to turn it on/off would have been great. The gamepad is underused when playing local co-op. I'd love to have the gamepad/tv screen all for myself when playing with a friend, so this function being nonexistent seems a big miss of an opportunity on Nintendo's part.
I never played the original version, but this HD port is pretty great. It might not be the Zelda game some were hoping for on the Wii U, but it definitely has the dungeons, puzzles, and boss enemies the fans of the franchise love.
When this game was announced I had a feeling I was going to enjoy it. But once I actually tried it, I was blown away. It looks amazing, plays great, and the multiplayer often becomes HIGHLY competitive (in a great way). This is, in my opinion, THE shooter (that isn't quite simply a shooter) to own on the Wii U!
