A vast improvement for the Switch era, but still not great.
I`ll be honest here. I`m a big Zelda fan, but I`ve never really liked The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, which is why I`ve only beaten the motion-control heavy game twice on Wii. My interest peaked when I learned that the game was getting an HD upgrade for Switch that made motion controls optional. Perhaps I could finally enjoy this gimmicky title.
For any who don`t know, the plot centers on Link and Zelda, childhood friends who live on the floating island of Skyloft and attend the Knight Academy. After a suspicious tornado knocks Zelda off of her Loftwing and down to the surface below, it`s up to Link to save her and defeat the evil force bent on the world`s destruction. In the process, Link will have to dive into several dungeons, acquire new gadgets, and meet several crazy characters. Originally, players had to swing the Wiimote around to make Link strike with his sword, but this didn`t always respond the way it should...
