Skyward Sword Retrospective | A Newfound Appreciation

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and I have quite the history. For years I have seen it as one of the few truly terrible Zelda games. But as I have been reminded of time and time again, opinions can change. Let's just say that after replaying Skyward Sword HD, I'm happy to say that this isn't going to be another negative review of the game.

Note: Apologies for the subpar gameplay footage quality. I was having some technical difficulties capturing Switch footage using my main laptop back in July when I recorded the game. I had to resort to using an older, underpowered laptop that couldn't record higher than 720p without dropping frames. Hope it isn't too distracting and you enjoy the video regardless! :)
