-Wonderful watercolor artstyle
-Underrated motion controls add some complexity to battles with normal enemies. Definitely beats run up and press A imo. It is painful if you have a bad motion sensor and I understand how some people hate how often it is used in this game, but I prefer it to prior Zeldas' sword combat. Definitely improved in the remake with easy recalibration
-imo the two best Zelda dungeons ever are in this game. Time Ship and Ancient Cistern are the coolest and most memorable Zelda dungeons to me.
-Great characters....this is my favorite Link/Zelda iteration and Ghirahim & especially Groose are great, too.
-Best or at least top 3 final boss in Zelda. In fact, the whole end sequence is amazing. Love the Ghirahim fight at the end, and most of the other boss fights in this are simply fantastic.
-My favorite Zelda atmosphere. The worlds and soundtracks just make exploring a joy. It also makes me really enjoy the sky despite its relative emptiness.
-A handful of other unique mechanics and items that elevate the puzzle solving in this game, such as the whip, bow (I know this is in every Zelda but for some reason I love it in this game the most), and time stones. I do wish there was more item use outside of the areas you get them, though.
Conclusion: Play it with an open mind and positive attitude and it will become one of your favorites!
