I didn't think it was bad, I enjoyed my playthrough of it as well. I just thought it paled compared to most other Zelda games which are usually excellent.
Not a fan of motion controls, but even putting that completely aside, the way they did the overworld felt really disjointed to me and pretty tiny. There was very little exploration and side quests and stuff, made the game feel much more linear than other Zelda games (which are often quite linear but you can lose yourself doing side stuff so it doesn't feel like it).
It also felt shorter and easier to me than other Zelda games (probably due to lack of overworld and side stuff) and there was just lots of weird quirks (like those stupid items prompts that reset every time you restart the game).
So no, not a bad game or anything, just felt like a step down from the other Zelda titles.
The open world concept of BotW should hopefully rectify the biggest complaint and put the exploration and the scope of the world back.
