The ocean is incredibly annoying to navigate and makes the game feel empty.
The dungeons (the entire reason to play a Zelda game) are fucking boring and short. The last two with the novel co-op mechanic are the only decent ones, and even then only because the co-op puzzles, not because they are memorable in theme or music.
Too many islands are basically inaccessible until you've done all the dungeons and have -all- the items, there's no natural exploration like Ocarina where you can organically grab things throughout the game as you progress.
The Wind Waker itself is used way too much, even moreso than the Ocarina in Majora's Mask, so it becomes very annoying to sit through its animations every time.
Despite being a short game, it is still blatantly packed with either cut content or downright filler, in fact the filler in this game is so iconic it's used as the go-to example for bad filler in video games.

Wind Waker excels in story, in visuals (for the Gamecube version, not the garbage Wii U port), music, and enhanced controls and combat. Nothing else.

Sunshine's level design for its normal areas is the absolute worst out of any 3D Mario game, easily. The levels are no fun to traverse and there are very few platforming challenges within the stages proper. Not to mention one of the few examples in it has the most awful camera in Mario game history. All real examples of platforming along the lines of what Bowser's Fury offers on the regular are trapped within contextless bubbles made out of wooden and toy blocks floating in a void inserted since the devs realized their levels sucked ass.

Meanwhile virtually every Bowser's Fury island subportion has context and a decent amount of platforming challenge with interesting concepts like the invisible tower.

Sunshine's level design is to make real locations and then put Mario into them.

Which could have been ok, but all of the Shine objectives blow and don't take advantage of that. The only decently designed levels that properly incorporate the idea are Ricco Harbor and Noki Bay to a lesser extent, with Noki Bay's issue being that it runs out of content super fast and forces you into a god awful subgame for three of its Shines. Sirena Beach is downright laughable in how obviously it tries to use a super small amount of content and stretch it into a supposedly full stage, while having tons of jank related to trying to make a Mario level out of a hotel while not doing anything interesting with it. Pianta Village is a truly bizarre stage in that it's literally a boring village with no interesting design to it at all but they slapped a strange obstacle course underneath it because they realized it sucked as a part of a Mario game.

Pinna Park SHOULD by all means be a great level, it's actually got a fun idea to play around with for the purposes of converting a real world location to a Mario level ,and it IS fun to move around in... and that particular area is used for exactly one singular Shine, the rest are all either subgame gimmicks, in the offshoot beach part of the level that doesn't fit into the rest of it at all, or what could have been a good platformer section if the camera was not truly heinous.

I could go on but then I remember that the final level of Mario Sunshine is a short hover nozzle "platforming" challenge followed by a boat ride and then one of the worst/easiest final bosses in gaming history and I wonder why anyone would bother defending the game in general. At least the boat controls well if you're not retarded so I'm not even complaining about that part.

I was immensely disappointed by it as a kid and that feeling's stuck with me pretty hard, I assume a lot of others are the same.

Trying to play it nowadays only further solidifies how bad of a game it is. It's a frustrating title because by all means, the followup to Super Mario 64 should be godly but it's so much worse somehow. And then they decided to never make another game similar to 64 until Odyssey, which was pretty great but took a lot of departures from the concept itself. Sunshine was the one chance to have another game truly like 64 and it missed the mark.

Bowser's Fury is surprisingly kind of close to 64 in a number of ways at least.
