I admire what this did for the open world genre, but it's clearly an unfinished and flawed game. The criticisms I have are basically the same as the common ones, so I won't regurgitate it here. The only thing I'll really add is that the Devs themselves clearly knew the game was unfinished, as they added tons more content in ToTK. This is probably the first Zelda game that's been made almost entirely obsolete by its followup. This was the first Zelda entry for a lot of people, and I suspect that's the only reason why its average rating is the highest in the series.
