Through all the stories and all the timelines found in the Zelda series... nobody saw this coming. Koei Tecmo and Nintendo team up to take the Dynasty Warriors formula, toss in a lot of Zelda-franchise fan service, and blend that stuff together in a funky mish-mash of Zelda lore that only the Wind Fish could dream up. That game is called Hyrule Warriors. I was admittedly hesitant on this title upon first announcement. I had no idea what the Dynasty Warriors franchise was all about. I knew I loved Zelda. It wasn't until the excellent Nintendo Direct (embedded below) which sold me on the idea. I'm seeing a lot of reviews, which started coming in today, and they seem to agree that this isn't much of a Zelda game. I have to point out, the name borrows the Warriors from Dynasty Warriors and not Zelda. This alone helps me see what Koei Tecmo and Nintendo were aiming for. This isn't going to be a Zelda main-line game nor is it striving to be. For what it's goals are, and for what Nintendo has contributed to it, I'm pretty excited myself and now there's less than 10 days remaining. The game releases on September 26th, 2014. Fun Facts1.) Sends Link and 12 other playable characters from various Zelda universes into other universes. Mixing things up! 2.) Loaded with various locales, enemies, bosses, items, and music from throughout the Legend of Zelda series. 3.) Series offers plenty of DLC options (detailed below). 4.) Tons of combos and special moves for each character. 5.) 2-player Co-Op (though I hear it's pretty hard on the Wii U processing) 6.) Unique 'Adventure Mode' taking players back into the NES' The Legend of Zelda for a mix of challenges and adventure! (at least on the map) DLC OptionsAmazon.com - Buy from here an you'll get codes for Twilight Princess Costumes Best Buy - Buy from here an you'll get codes for Skyward Sword Costumes Gamestop - Buy from here an you'll get codes for The Ocarina of Time Costumes NOTE: While the Retailer-Specific DLC is day one, shortly after release all DLC will be available for purchase from Nintendo for presumably a small fee.

@TriforceBunYeah, I just tried it this morning again and got it. I got her a few times in Wizzro's House, and then she took off for the Tree and her weak point gauge RESET (GOOD), so I was able to lay in a few more time without destroying her. Scooped up my GS, and came back with a vengeance. I had another question that I always have while I'm playing, and now I can't remember.. Maybe next time I'll just Home Menu it and come straight here to type it oot. I've been making some progress clearing missions that were crushing me earlier, so thats good. Picked up Zelda's Lv3 Baton today, which'll pave the way for some serious missions on the Master Quest Map. YEAH. Even more exciting, I think, was finally winning Ruto's Lv3 Scale. YEAH.@VofEscaflowneBut I have so much to dooooooo.. EDIT: Ah, alright.. How are defensive bonuses calculated on stages where there is no recommended element? Also, why did my Skulltula not pop up for me while I was crushing Death Mountain w. Sheik? Annoying.. |

@VofEscaflowneWell, ya scared me BIG TIME when I read this yesterday. Lv80 for Zant? Gosh, thats 30+ levels off of where I have him at! Took a run at it today, mostly going to focus on the treasure and the 1000 KO skulltula. Got it, and after I had taken so much damage, I just decided to take my time and get the two heart pieces. Finished the mission, expecting to have some C ranks in there (for time, especially), and to my surprised, my 8,400 damage on that mission was still good enough for an A-Rank. Really?? Figuring I could squeeze some time off of the 23 minutes that I ran prior (haha), I went back in there and took care of business. I only took like 2,400 damage the 2nd time around (though still missed out on the 1200 KO Skulltula, blahh), and waltzed away with a brand new Lv3 weapon for Zant. Now, I can't stand Zant. It makes me wonder how I can "breeze" through this one with him (and pretty crappy weapons -- I think I won with a 210 with two garbage Skills on it), but Darunia's Lv3 gives me SO MUCH TROUBLE. Any advice outside of "raise your level?" I don't have any fun skills lurking on his weapons that could propel me through there. That'd be a nice time to have a VS Legend skill, eh? Maybe when I slap on his alternate uni he'll come to life for me. I feel like when you put on the unlockable skins, the CPU is like "oh crap! Here comes _______!" I think Impa's is my favorite so far, though Link's purple duds are kinda cool, too. |
