Zelda has been discussed to death numerous times here, so the stance of most members is pretty well known, but we always seem to get into some pretty good discussions about it anyways.
There are a select few of us who feel the return to "realistic" Zelda at the behest of the "mature" crowd was a step back for the franchise. I actually disliked a great deal of Twilight Princess outside of the boss fights and very specific dungeons. In particular, everything to do with the horrible wolf Link and the twilight world was torture to me, and bullsh*t like tear collecting was nothing but tedious padding.
To me, Wind Waker was the perfect Zelda in every way, and it really disappoints me that that part of the franchise seems to have been relegated to handheld garbage. So, I will admit that my interest in the new Zelda is fairly slim.
Also of note, I've never been a fan of the "classic" Zelda games, and despised both LoZ and LttP when I played them as a kid, so I don't have that nostalgic connection to the franchise that so many others do. I feel like it allows me to really see the series without the blinders on and be more critical of it than most are.
