Some people have complained about this game being "Short", which I find kind of weird since I've already put dozens of hours into this game and there are still a whole bunch of black spaces on my Adventure Map.
Could it be a little of all the different "worlds"? In that the fact that this has a Zelda flavor has influenced the reviewer in such a way so as to examine the game more thoroughly and judge it on its own merits than previous entries in the series did? (such as not getting hung up on the fact that you find yourself swinging your weapon about 95% of the time and move on to the nuances of the game)
Because this review is by no means inaccurate. It describes everything fairly well.
Whereas Destiny's hype might have influenced its reviewer in such a way that they became very critical and too focused on the flaws? I haven't read it, and haven't played Destiny, and I don't intend to because I'm not into shooters, so I don't know how much of this is true or not, but I'm humoring the possibility that Destiny actually might not be THAT bad.
