I didn’t play it until the Switch remaster. Basically went in blind, and I had a blast. Loved it.

That’s the prevailing opinion certainly, but there’s a pretty diehard contingent who love it. That it just gets a bad rep because it gets compared to the masterpiece that was Twilight Princess.

Can’t say myself, as I’ve never played it, but I’ve got a few friends who are huge proponents of it and would say it’s underrated.

And, to be fair, something doesn’t have to be good to be underrated. People hate Skyward Sword, and I assume it’s not actually terrible. Just on the low end of Zelda games.
