Having logged 42:09 hours so far to get to the final boss, I can safely say that this is the first Zelda game since Ocarina of Time to make me almost literally go 'SQUEEEEE!!'
The entire plot works so well as a 'prequel' and is so heavily laden with references to other games that I'll seriously miss it when I finish it.
Just the final boss to go and boy is it a doozy!
