It hasn't hurt this much to only give a game a 9/10 in a while.

Gushing over Wind Waker's beautiful story, lovable characters, fun exploration, expansive sea, gorgeous soundtrack, rewarding upgrades, strong dungeons and amazing charm would hopefully convey why this game holds such a special place in my heart. This enthralling, character-driven masterclass of story and game design will always hold an irreplaceable spot in my heart. Some monotonous quests and an overall lack of difficulty hold this back from being my favorite Zelda game, a title it held for many years. But still, if this is the only Wii U game I ever care to revisit, it will have justified the console's purchase.
