This is pretty much end game spoilers right here about what I liked in the ending.

(SPOILER)Okay, I loved that Hilda was basically the main villain, even though you see it coming from damn near the first time you meet her. However, I loved that the motivation behind her actions wasn't out of malice or evil, she just wanted to fulfill her duty and save her kingdom.

I was kind of happy Gannon really didn't have a role in the story outside of being the one who held the Triforce of Power, and thus necessary to complete their goal.

I liked how creative the puzzles could get in the game, though the combat itself, bosses or otherwise, was really easy. I effectively died twice my entire playthrough, and one of those was just me being stupid. (Okay, two other times I reset because I had rented every smurfing item from the guy before I could start buying, so four times I died, two on record. And both deaths were basically me slacking and not paying attention. )

This game, in terms of writing, is in the top three Zelda's for me, falling behind Wind Waker and Majora's Mask.
