I like the item upgrade system (reminds me of LttP for some reason) but I don't know about the whole loot/collectathon/item synthesis. I'm sure it'll be fine though. Still hyped as hell, everything looks so frigging good.
I liked TP's intro once you learned the wii controls. *shrug*
I also didn't mind the light seeds.
I really didn't mind the Wii controls... except for when playing as a wolf. Never felt very good.
But the sword swings were decent, and the bow/clawshots were awesome with it.
I never felt the opening was very long either but I have a skewed sense of time when playing Zelda. I did get frustrated a couple times though, like sending the hawk into the cat a couple times. Some things weren't made clear enough.
TP's dungeons were amazing, aside from the Twilight Realm one, it seemed like they ran out of ideas at that point... It's a shame the game had such a slow start, it's still my favorite 3D Zelda.
Majora's Mask also had awesome dungeons, but there were too few of them!
That one and Hyrule Castle were kind of disappointments, which left a bad taste in my mouth when I finished the game because they were the last two in the game. I really wish there was more to Hyrule Castle in particular.
