It's actually surprising how robust the story seems to be in this Zelda. There's a cutscene after most events, unlike the other games.
Anyways, as more and more time goes into this game, I see more things I love and more I wish was better. I'm really not too hot on the sword swinging. It's not the most responsive thing in the world. I actually felt more into the game pressing a button than swinging the wiimote. In one particular part it actually caused a good deal of annoyance...
You need pretty precise timing at that part, and the controls just don't offer the precision you need to excute what you want to do easily. It's a good thing most of the time you just wave your wiimote around randomly to hit something.
