Despite their track record for the main Dynasty series, I don't see them building up each race into that, the main characters (Link, Ganon, Zelda) are pretty much the only notable characters they could make playable. It looks more like a one-time game, like Bladestorm and Legends of Troy. But you can bet they'll make a Warrior Orochi 4 with Link as an exclusive on the Wii U version though.

I'm guessing there may be a playable Goron of some description. Rolling into enemies, picking up rocks/bomb flowers and punching will fir the idea of the game.

Depends how much of the franchise they want to cover. The DW games themselves cover over a century of classical Chinese literature; Hyrule Warriors could be anything from just Ocarina onward, or as far back as the original. And on top of that, there are what, five or so different Links that could get in?

The FOX animated versions of King Harkinian and Ganon. They're vastly superior to the CD-I versions.

Link was already dead during that war though. I'm not expecting to get several versions of Link, their attacks aren't unique enough. There's one Link that seems to have all variations of the spin attack, all sorts of weapons (bombs) and even magic. Unless this was just for the demo and they'll split that into different versions of Link (with different models), it could work. Like a swords-master class Link, a mage class Link, an archer class, a "random weapon" class...

No, this: (http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/rr268/Enzan_Blues/Zelda_Ocarina_of_Time_art01.jpg) If it's simply a spinoff with its own vague story connections to the rest of the series, I say throw Zelda, Sheik, and Tetra in as separate characters. Battle mage, ninja, and pirate queen. Also, the true Goron badass Darmani. (http://static2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100413134811/zelda/images/4/4a/Darmani_Artwork.png) Because whoa.
There are a ton of secondary characters throughout the lore to pick and choose from, adapting them to fit their needs. OoT Impa, Byrne, Agahnim, Nabooru (or Avail), Ravio, Yuga, Twinrova, Vaati, Onox, Veran, Zant, Midna, the resistance from TP, Blind the thief... I'm waiting to see what they do. Hell, the name isn't even final.

The video from the Nintendo Direct is all there is, it was just a teaser and they specified that it has only just begun. So no date yet, and it's probably not coming in 2014. It could even be tied to the next Zelda, too (that blue scarf could be for/from it), so a random guess from me would be second half of 2015.
I'm super curious, interested and hype to see the new combat aspects of the game, what the plot will be and if there will still be maps/puzzles/prerequisites that need to be solved like all other previous Zelda games.
The video shows Link opening a chest and getting something from it, so I would imagine they are at least trying to include something like that in some form or another. Not sure about Zelda-like puzzles and explorations though, maybe figuring out ways to unlock full maps at most, but without specific gameplay elements that aren't just smashing stuff with swords or blowing up stuff with bombs (destructible walls, so). That can lead to hidden chests with upgrades.

Am I one of the few who hated dynasty warriors? I didnt like how that franchise was milked to death with a new game every year. My favorite one was the first one when it was a fighting game. But I love the zelda series and combating with link, I hope that alone doesn't make me want this I need to see more of the game. It needs to be more than what dynasty warriors was for me to consider purchasing a wii u for this game.
Title: Re: Hyrule Warriors (WiiU)
Post by: [Judas] on December 19, 2013, 04:01:54 pm
I've been pretty meh on Dynasty Warriors proper for a while, honestly. The last one of the two main series (three if you include Orochi) I played for any significant amount of time was Samurai Warriors 2 for PS2. The care they seem to put into the spin-offs, however, makes me a little more enthusiastic. Ken's Rage 2, for instance, is a game I still play from time to time. My limited time with the One Piece game (despite my lack of give-a-damn for One Piece) was pretty positive. I recall liking the Gundam games a while back. Warriors of Troy was even pretty alright.
I'm reserving judgment until more info is available, sure, but I know I'll be picking it up eventually. Bayonetta 2 and Smash are the reasons I will get the system, but ZERUDA MUSOU will most likely be a day one based on principle.

Power is forbidden for Link. :x No but seriously, this game doesn't look too bad. Unfortunately, it will suffer the fate of all the Dynasty Warrior-esque games. By being extreme mundane and repetitive about an hour in. You really have to like these types of games in general, along with liking the chars involved to get your money's worth. It's a yes and no thing with me. I don't like Dynasty Warriors, though I did like the Gundam versions of it. I also like the HnK one. Managed to get a platinum trophy on the first one, though haven't played the second one. Even though I do like them, I can't deny that you'll find yourself pretty bummed out several days into playing it. Gundam had dozens of suits and upgrades to choose from though. So it had a redeeming factor in that regard. I'm not sure just how much this game can offer in the way of changing things up and trying to keep it entertaining/fresh through multiple playthroughs.

Also if you liked (Were fine with) the Gundam Versions, then you'll like (Be fine with) this. It has the Giant Bosses and Zone Capture just like it.
And Ganon will clearly be the Lu Bu of this version (Will he be as cheap as Knight Gundam?)

Just saw that second trailer with Midna and Impa fighting and the E3 Tree House Demo with Midna fighting the Twilit Dragon RidleyArgorok.
This game looks like such a fun spectator game. The kinda game you and friends would gladly take turns passing together progressing through to the end(s).
If I recall correctly, there were 9 slots total on the character select screen, the demo only had Link with a Sword, Link with a wand and Zelda with a sword.

I wouldn't recommend assuming this is the final number. 9 seems a little short for the Warriors guys. With Link, Zelda, Impa, Midna, and definitely Ganon, that's already 5 slots taken. I think I'm being safe in saying there's a decent chance of passing 15, and if they really dig deep, it could be even more. If you just give it a little thought, it'd be piss easy for them to throw in all the Sages from OoT (even Saria), the 3 Oracle girls, Zant, Ashei, Agahnim... And I'm just barely scratching the surface.

Unless the corruption cut her hair and gave her Evil Boobs and evil skin (i.e. darker skin).

Possible, but considering the number of weapons a single character possesses, 9 would make sense.
From the demo i played at E3, link had around 12 separate weapons(Only 2 shown), while Zelda has only three(Only one shown).
So yeah, just something to consider if 9 were the chosen number. LOTS of ways to take on a single mission to make up for a limited cast.
Title: Re: Hyrule Warriors (WiiU)
Post by: DKDC on June 21, 2014, 10:37:46 pm
The Warriors series is currently around 150 characters, each with a unique style, so the number of styles and weapons per character isn't a factor. What's important is the specific characters that they may want to include : characters like Nabooru, Dark Link as a separate character, Darunia, etc. Once they have that list, they can always split the styles they already have between them, and then throw the iconic actions of each character from the Zelda series on top of those 150+ existing styles. As long as they can think of characters to add, I see no reason to stop at a number like 9, even if those 9 all have like 4 styles of their own.
Quote

How do you mean ? Like 12 slots in the style selection list, with the one-handed sword and the rod being the only ones available, and the others marked as "???" ? 12 styles actually seems like a lot just for Link, though it's not impossible.
Title: Re: Hyrule Warriors (WiiU)
Post by: Tsunamidusher on June 21, 2014, 10:47:51 pm
That's right. 9 character slots. In those character slots, you choose one to bring into battle, and there were 12 for Link solo.

Orochi games are around that count; the split between Dynasty and Samurai is around about 80/60. And an important thing to remember is how many games it took to get to that level; eight Dynasty games plus expansion packs, and four Samurai games plus expansions. Don't expect Zelda to just jump straight to that figure.
Assuming all the characters have four different weapons, that's 36 movesets; that's a fair number for a debut game.

Quote
This week’s issue of Famitsu has another update on Hyrule Warriors. We have news about a pair of new playable characters in the game as well as ones that will be making return appearances from the Zelda series. First, Famitsu reveals two new playable characters. The first, as far as I can tell, might be Agitha from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. There’s also someone called “Lana”, though it’s unclear who this might be at present. Original character? Princess Lana from the Captain N: The Game Master animated TV series? It probably wouldn’t be wise for me to speculate since the information isn’t detailed. Take this part of the update with a grain of salt for now. Aside from playable characters, Famitsu also confirms that Argorok – who we’ve seen previously – and Zant from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess will be appearing in Hyrule Warriors. We should have more (and clearer) information soon. Only preliminary details have leaked out of this week’s Famitsu so far.
i hope it's true and i hope the rest of the characters are hella left field

Oh, right, one thing to not forget about the Warriors games is that they always make enemy bosses playable. Well, that's partly because it focuses on the story and the factions and no one is really the big end boss of the game, but the Warriors Orochi series is the exception, and even there, two versions of Orochi were playable along with a couple of the recurrent humanoid monster bosses (Dodomeki and Gyuuki). Obviously there won't be big monsters like King Dodongo playable, but Valga, Cia (even evil if there's a "good" version) and Wizro are a pretty sure shot, along with all the Zants, the Aghanims, the Phantom Ganondorfs (as a separate version of Ganondorf) and whoever else may appear as a boss.
Agitha is.... Pretty crazy though.

Hyrule Warriors’ Lana is a brand-new character (http://gematsu.com/2014/06/hyrule-warriors-lana-brand-new-character)
Quote
Following our Hyrule Warriors report yesterday, further details have surfaced about new playable characters Agitha and Lana.
Agitha, who hails from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, uses a parasol in battle, and can call upon and attack with insects.
Lana, who we speculated was Princess Lana of Captain N: The Game Master, is actually an original character. She is a witch who wields a book of magic in battle, and can create barriers to brush away enemies. When the barrier is broken, however, the shock will cause her damage.
Also revealed, Link’s Hook Shot will make a reappearance. It can be used to reach places normally not accessible.
Additionally, when you have certain strengthening items on hand, it’s possible bring down the moon from The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask as an attack.
Hyrule Warriors is due out for Wii U on September 26 in North America and September 19 in Europe.

Going off modern Musou titles, that's about as much as you can expect to spend to get them. Musou game SOP is themed costume packs based on earlier games, so you'll probably get an $8 Ocarina Of Time pack, an $8 Twilight Princess pack, an $8 Skyward Sword pack, etc. then after that an $8 Hyrule Highschool pack, Halloween pack, High(er?) Fantasy pack, Modern Business Suits For Everyone pack and so on.

Unusual to see Zelda like that, but classic for Warriors. If there's so much already in this style (rapier, light arrows, light magic, all 3 goddess magics), I wonder what other styles she's going to have, if she does have 3. Probably a Sheik style, but I don't know about the third. Maybe some sealing light magic ?

Those were Ocarina of Time-style Stalchildren in the Zelda trailer, while the Impa one had Skyward Sword-style Bokoblins. Then of course we have the playable Twilight Princess characters and the Majora's Mask moon.
I'm actually really interested to see if they have any sort of in-story explanation for why it's like that.

Seriously, don't blame that on Team Ninja, guys.
While listing these images on the Koei Wiki, I took a look at their Hyrule Warriors page, and
http://koei.wikia.com/wiki/Hyrule_Warriors said:
When asked about the number of playable characters, Aonuma stated there would be "a total of 52 different play styles."
In a quick wishlist of sorts that I wiped up for myself, I had around 40 to 45 entries (counting the presumed 12 styles for Link that were mentioned). So it's even more than that...

I was hoping that since they got their way with Cia, Zelda would be spared from back pains. I was wrong. :( She looks way more endowed than her usual self in the other games.

The trailer posted last page calls her (in Japanese) "princess of Hyrule kingdom", not queen. But I do recall one of the many articles saying "she's just been given the throne as reigning queen, but she still goes by 'princess'". Couldn't tell you which article it was though. So she is the queen, but she's princess Zelda.

Aggressive much, eh, sire? And the fact that "they always do this" is a rather poor excuse and definitely no reason to not point out the problems with this change. Zelda, of all girls, didn't need a breast enhancement. She dress with a rather low cut top at Smash Bros, but since her build is more in line with that of a real woman of her weight, it looks much more tasteful and modest than this.
Should they had followed that line, there would be little reason to complain about it (open boob plate is a poor armour choice when you have enemies that are sure to have archers with them, but we can overlook that on a game).
They did pretty good with Impa's design, so why did they have to make Zelda's breasts 100% larger? They already had the fan service part well covered with Cia, whom I am not complaining about. And that makes the core of the problem. They took a established character, known for having a normal build and gave her huge tracts of land for no reason other than fan service. That can get pretty aggravating among the female fan base of a game series.
Also, if we don't get vocal, things just won't change, therefore, I shall not stop complaining about this design change.
I think it was more just an observation than a point of conflict.
It's not as if that little skin window is the focal point of her appearance (and the cleavage itself is blocked by some necklace thing); barely attention grabbing.
Indeed. My first statement was just a mere observation of my displeasure with the huge property that she got on this game rather than an attempt to create conflict. But given that since I posted that observation and a small joke about back pain from the huge tracts of land she was given, I was pretty much told to shut up about it, I had to elaborate further on why that change proves bothersome to me and to quite a few friends of female persuasion I have.

Those are at least Ds or DDs, which fall within the large breast size category. And for someone with her body build those are huge. She would have a lot of trouble bra shopping due to her band size.

You're the one who keeps bringing up petty details and complaining about them over and again. And just because you keep complaining about it, doesn't make it true either. They're bigger than real life, but for games, it's barely noticeable. If you're picking on all the little things like "OMG she shows so much skin and she has huge tracts of lands" and do it over and again, people are gonna get dismissive. This is nothing out of the ordinary, and it's actually tamer than what we usually have, which means you don't have any point. You complained about it back then with little response, you're doing it again to get a response, you're doing this.

"tumblr" (broad statement, not all of tumblr is like that) is also criticism about things that aren't really an issue
Well yeah, but I just feel that maybe people overreacted a bit. Bea only just mentioned that She herself did not like the cleavage Zelda was sporting and the fact that her breasts were made bigger for the game. She even said that "Other then that, she kicks butt" so it'd not like it was ever that big of a deal for her. Only reason it ever became a bigger topic was due to Byakko telling her to "stop complaining" when all she did was state her opinion.
I don't really even totally agree with her in this regard, but im just saying.
Title: Re: Hyrule Warriors (WiiU)
Post by: Bea on June 25, 2014, 07:56:26 pm
Titiln, notice how much more angled the necklace is on Hyrule Warriors, and how lower the base of the breast plate go there, which is where the breast will be resting. While the plate is thick, you can see that it's resting position is far more pronounced and lower than the Zelda dress at Smash Bros. That show that her breasts have at least twice as much volume, considering my studies with breast implant size options.
Also, while they get new designs each game, this is the first time Zelda has been portrayed so voluptuous, which is why I made my comment about not digging her cleavage. ;P

Post by: Killer Kong on June 25, 2014, 08:05:15 pm
It's only gotten bigger for Zero Suit Samus throughout the course of the metroid series, and Smash, if 4 is any indication. REALLY not seeing the issue, honestly. It's a difference in design, every Zelda is going to be different. That's just how I see it, anyways. Now make Ganon look mega stronk and base him off of Ocarina of Time and you've got an even bigger opening in my wallet. As long as Zelda doesn't turn into anyone from Dragon's Crown I can't really stress it all that much.

It says Zelda's TP costume is from the Wisdom pack, and Link's is from the Courage pack, so I guess the Courage pack is 3 costumes for Link from different games, the Wisdom, 3 Zeldas from the same 3 games, and Power for Ganondorf, which likely means that one of the 3 is a game where Ganondorf doesn't appear, since the Power pack has only 2 costumes.

Zelda having big breasts in a Zelda-based game is about as much of an issue as the Zora race being completely naked and having awesome, fit, sexy, bodies intended to be fan service for furries. Or maybe not that last part.
Also, if big grueling males with amazing muscle mass in games are not an issue, then neither are huge-breasted women. If both are an issue, then you are dumb (I'm right, you are dumb). If only one is an issue, then you a're Anita Sarkeesian and you should shut the fuck up.

Personally I wasn't taking this game very seriously, so they can do what they want with Queen Zelda and fabulous Link. But it's a bit more understandable if they start messing with previous iterations of established versions of the characters, though.

I just don't know why they had to make a new character to fit this role. There are a ton of LOZ characters they could have given this loli personality to. Since she's so generic you can't even say "well, she's an important new character for the story" because if she is her generic design and personality is that much worse.
Edit because of byakko's reply: I've never played a warriors game :p

Given the design, there's a chance she's related to Cia (white hair under Cia's mask). Cia's backstory says she served Hyrule and so does Lana, so there's probably some PLOT TWIST to be expected.
There are a ton of LOZ characters they could have given this loli personality to.
Actually, I don't think there are that many existing characters in Zelda who have this kind of personality... She does stick out quite a lot from what we're used to in Zelda. But she's completely normal for the Warriors series. In fact, there aren't that many notable female characters in Zelda who could fit : the oracle girls (Din, Farore, Nayru), Ashei, Agitha, Saria, Nabooru, Ruto, Impa, Malon, Veran... I guess kid-Malon or kid-Ruto could have gotten a personality like that and it wouldn't be too far off, but that would be pushing it (if anything, I expect their adult form to show up). Since they're coming up with characters like Cia, Wizro and Valga, this Lana doesn't seem weird if they're trying to fill a girl quota (the Warriors games include a bunch of historical female characters who normally never did jack shit, and it's either hello boobs or tiny girl with lots of steel) (or they have females who did do stuff historically, but change them so they make steel rain).

Kai isn't really genki, but her I NEED A MAAAAAAN bullshit is just as grating. Okuni is more of a comedic take on the Zhenji or Zhang Chunhua style madam than anything else.

Yeah, I wasn't saying that everyone is a genki archetype. Just that they're mostly either big boobs or small girl, regardless of personality. And the genki style isn't out of place for the series.

I hope they make the game like SW2 in which even the generic officers could fuck up your army really good and give a challenge. But not as much as in DW8 where in low morale a retarded peon could kill the strongest officer in your army

I'm just reading this thread and how is it Byakko and me are the only two to actually actively play most of the Musou series.
Also there probably will be a playable Zora or Goron. Considering they could easily reuse assets from the orochi servant characters in WO3. (Mainly Genki(?) for Goron)
Also Japan is not not going to put in an unbearable cutesy girl in their game that's mainly meant to appeal to them. I mean hope to god she's not Xiaoqiao or Bao Sanniang levels dear god.

Gyuuki. He has a mace/club, though. I imagine a Goron would have a style with punches, grabs, quakes, sumo wrestling, rolling in a ball, and maybe an explosion from bomb plants. (unless you mean just model bits and basic animations of course)

Lacus is annoying in the actual series.
Also yeah Gyuuki. And I do mean general model and animation. They do have the same stature. And we have 2 named unique gorons in the LoZ series (One from OoT, another ALSO from Twilight Princess). And so far we've seen alot of TP in HW.

Have people here just never even seen a Warriors game ? The women who don't have massive boobs are all tiny girls swinging large metal circles and making knives rain everywhere and stuff. How this can be a surprise to anyone is just plain weird.
For a Warriors game, fine. But when you put the Legend of Zelda branding on something, it carries with it a certain set of expectations regarding content and tone. And those expectations certainly don't involve ditzy doe-eyed moeblobs giggling and dancing around all over the place.
It'd be like if Telltale made an adventure game out of Mario Bros., and then randomly threw in a brand new "Mario" character that was all grim and noir who went around drinking and swearing and stuff. Yes, that'd be par for the course for a Telltale adventure game, but nobody wants to see that next to Mario.

It's hard not to expect some archetypes and patterns from both Zelda and DW when the title of a game is Hyrule Warriors. I'm just gonna go ahead and say it, regardless of the series, if even the creators have described it as a fusion, then I expect it to embody traits from both series in multiple fields beyond gameplay. This includes new(and most likely exclusive) characters.
I also like how people think Team Ninja is behind anything besides the cutscenes here.
All this game needs for a Day 1 buy is playable Ganondorf.

I'll admit that she seems a bit obnoxious (don't have an issue with it though), but the idea that the LoZ environment (which I actually wouldn't know) isn't allowed to have any cute nuances whatsoever sounds like a bit much.
I also like how people think Team Ninja is behind anything besides the cutscenes here.

Midna, of course, she played a very very key role in TP. I will concede it was one single title, but she has a very clear stand out presence among other Zelda characters now.
That being said, I hope more male characters are presented... Link being the only skilled Hyrulian man again. I would laugh and cheer at Groose getting a spot I fear Tingle is all but inevitable... Kafei's not even on the radar. The King isn't even questionable because Zelda is officially "Queen Zelda"
What other useful male protagonists would even make it? ...Darunia?

With Link supposedly having 12 different styles for himself already, and while Dark Link can have some evil style that regular Link wouldn't have, I really don't think Toon Link has any place in a Warriors game, by design alone. This isn't Smash Bros. Regular Link could have a style dedicated to cartoonish weapons, but Toon Link would just feel wrong.

And Link has the Ball & Chain from Twilight Princess as a style, sweet. I can't quite see what Zelda has, but I'm under the impression that she's using something like the Wind Waker wand... Yup, I think I can see its Japanese name (takuto) in the text (yellow text on a yellow background is genius).

Beside the enemies (human-sized boss characters like Ghirahim and Ganondorf are definitely going to be playable), the only few male characters that could make it (and that I can think of) are those like Groose, Ravio, Alfonzo, Rauru, Darunia, and Ralph. There's simply a lot more female characters in the franchise. For foes, there's Dark Link, a Darknut, Ganondorf, Skullkid, Onox, Vaati, Zant, Byrne, Ghirahim...

As for Sheik? If they went that route, I hope Sheik has a mission where he runs into Zelda and they have a "Who the hell are you" Moment. This game isn't canon after all... so a Sheik is free to not be Zelda at all! That would be a nice trick to fans.

The text says the weapon is called "glove" (like the fire rod is called just "rod") but specifies that the chain hammer (sic) and power gloves are a set, so it's mostly the same. It does have a move where it drops the chain and swings down a pillar. Zelda's weapon is just "waker", not specifically the "wind" waker, maybe it's not all wind and it's a different kind (although it is "from Wind Waker") nah, probably not. It "raises the wind" but "sound becomes thunder". It also raises a whirlwind. Fi transforms into a sword (even though she's a spirit living in it and not the sword itself) And yes, the Skyward Sword outfits for Link and Zelda are part of the Courage and Wisdom sets.

Oh, I'm taking another look at the scan and I noticed that it says the black witch Cia broke time-space and this resulted in 3 worlds barging in. Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword are two of them - that's why the pumpkin island is seen crashed onto Skyloft (and why the sealing ground is there too). So, which other game has a notable piece of land unique enough to be its own world ? Majora's Mask, maybe ? Minish Cap ? Areas from Ocarina of Time and Link to the Past can be common enough to not come from summoning another world, I guess.
Also there's a shopping mall you can access outside of battle. Win rupees in battle, then go to the mall to boost your characters' stats, buy medicine, or buy badges, which grant you skills when you equip them (screenshot shows one that allows you to smash the weak point gauge faster). There's also minor stuff like morblin flesh. On items, there's the heart container (you can also get heart pieces), and also the bow (I figured that would be a weapon style for Link with fire, ice, and silver arrows, oh well). The bow can pierce through small enemies to kill several in one shot, and when you power it up, it shoots a volley of arrows of light at once. There also are enemies whose weak point gauge will crumble faster when shot at with the bow.

Well we've already got the Moon, so Majora's Mask seems like a safe bet.
I don't know how well it would fit in aesthetically with everything else, but Wind Waker's Great Sea would probably be unique enough.

Post by: DKDC on July 10, 2014, 10:37:50 pm
The "main series" Warriors games have something like 40 to 50 characters, so it's bound to have a few you just hate, but it's irrelevant because there's so many others to pick that you really don't give a shit about those you don't like. You can just not use them, and instead, turn to the other 40 you appreciate. It's just ridiculous to watch people suddenly get up in arms at the second character they don't like. There's still supposed to be 52 different styles including 12 for Link, so possibly somewhere around 30 to 35 different characters. They've been dishing out character videos and scans at a pretty strong rhythm in the last few weeks (7 videos in around 3 weeks), and the game comes out in a month or so. You won't have to wait a long time.

Because there's really nothing to flip out about? Lana has a bafflingly terrible character design, but her fighting style looks interesting. Agitha came way out of left field but she's definitely a unique choice, and again with an intriguing play style. And Fi was the worst thing about Skyward Sword by a nautical mile with the way she'd constantly interrupt gameplay just to pop in and repeat incredibly basic, obvious information, but honestly she might be interesting here if she's going to shut up and actually do something.
Title: Re: Hyrule Warriors (WiiU)
Post by: Koop on July 13, 2014, 11:08:36 pm
I think a lot of people missed the point that Fi's "interruptions" and stating the obvious are all done on purpose. Since she's (timeline wise) the first exposition fairy. There's not really anyone else they could add from skyward besides Fi and Groose with the latter being a bit of a stretch.

Basically. It'll look off as hell if she was looking pissed while using it considering most conductors look pretty damn peaceful when they do their motions.
Otherwise, I like Zelda using that Wand more than Link, but maybe it would be Toon Link who should have it(BOOOO!)

Basically, it confirms that we'll be getting at least one new character this week. But like last time with Fi, the wording gives you an immediate hint on who it is.
Those familiar with the JP script in Zelda games would know that "goro~" is something that's only used by Gorons in their "dialect". We in the West got our first taste of that with the Goron in Majora's Mask. And in at least Zelda Musou, this stays true.
Think it's about that time we see Darunia/Darmani/Darbus. My bets would be on Darunia, since he's the most well known, and we're due for some OoT representation.

Post by: DKDC on July 22, 2014, 01:31:31 pm
Yeah, there's a Golden Skulltula gathering element. I do hope that they're decently hidden, I'm not fond of them in the main series but in this case, looking for them would actually give you a good reason to retrace through stages you've already completed (which is usually a problem for Warriors games). I hope there are more hunting elements like that, in fact (several per stage, too, that'd be best).

Text confirms OoT is the last of the 3 worlds that get merged into the Hyrule Warriors world. I guess that means the chances for characters from other games being included just crashed hard (nothing from any toon game), but it does confirm the costumes we'll get in the Courage, Wisdom, Power DLC sets. Also if there's no character from other games, now I don't know how we'll get to 52 different styles...
edit - forgot to mention, but obviously the text also names Darunia, and not Darmani. The visible text on the right mentions explosions, likely involved in his style.

Title: Re: Hyrule Warriors (WiiU)
Post by: DKDC on July 23, 2014, 11:56:27 pm
There's a co-op play, one playing on the screen and the other on the pad. I don't remember how well that's developed in the usual Warriors games.
Sheik, called the hero of the Sheikahs, uses kunais and harp music magic in the Harp style. Since this is actually the character from the OoT world being merged into the HW world, it's probably still OoT!Zelda in disguise. The Ruto page actually shows HW!Zelda fighting Sheik in the Water Temple, but then Sheik points the "mirror of truth", which reveals truth, to "the person that seems to be Zelda"... It's probably ambiguous on purpose that you're not sure if Sheik is fighting HW!Zelda because she thinks she's a fake OoT!Zelda, or if it's actually some other creature impersonating HW!Zelda. Although it says Sheik is accompanied by Impa and the Goron page scan shows that it's HW!Impa and not OoT!Impa, so I'm not sure why HW!Impa would mistake HW!Zelda for an impostor for OoT!Zelda, so she might really be a fake. Also dumb watermark over the lower right text.
Ruto uses Magic Tools style. Summons water for both mobility and attacks, water bullets and stuff. Hylia Lake stage, clearly has a secret passage to the boss room of the Water Temple. I wonder if you'll get items to fight in the water area, underwater.
Darunia : (the explosions I read last post was just part of the description of what the Gorons are, not of his style) Goron Hammer style hell yeah. Sheik and Impa are marching on Death Mountain to prevent the flood of demonic creatures. They're helped by fairies. Impa's other style is the naginata, combined with fire spells on the naginata, it says it's a combination of Sheikah styles, never saw the Sheikah use fire though. Fire wall, fire dragon, they call it technical. Lana's alt style is called... "big tree". Magic from the Deku tree, tricky style. "Lana can talk to the Deku Tree, what's her connections ?" The stage is called the Firone Woods where the Deku Tree sleeps. Firone Woods ? That was the Japanese name of Twilight Princess' Faron Woods, but I never heard that the OoT forest was called Firone/Faron too. It does say that the stage is original (tree houses and bridge pathways)
100 Gold Skulltulas. Kill one, get an illustration piece, kill all to reveal all the illustrations. A mark appears on the map showing the area where the skulltula is hidden, but it can run away, so get there fast. There are cases where it only appears if you pick the right character with the right weapon. They also make the usual scratching sound when you get close, so blast rocks and stuff to find it.
The boomerang, a treasure chest item, can stun enemies, though it's slower to hit. Reinforced version is the Storm Boomerang, causes a whirlwind that sends targets flying (you can follow that up with more attacks for a damaging combo).
Weapon pieces can be found on the battlefield, dropped by enemies at random to improve your weapon stats. Some treasure chests have "sealed weapons", unlocking new styles for certain characters. Weapons have a name (Impa's Daigoron Biggoron sword is shown), a number of stars showing the level, an element (fire, water, lightning, light, darkness) dealing higher damage to enemies with the corresponding weakness, attack power, skills (e.g. Rupee multiplication and triple strength), sealed skills (given example requires to defeat 3000 enemies to unlock), empty slots that you can fill by going through the junk store to create a skill. Maximum 8 skill slots.
Shop mall can be entered in and out of battle. Badge store, medicine store, junk store where you can tweak weapons and build skills (which you can pass around weapons).
4 heart pieces to make a new heart container.
Still loving every bit of it.

Play Warriors games. Yes, individually, enemies often just stand there and wait a while before trying to hit you, but if you don't pay attention, you can get in serious trouble even then, especially if one of them starts catching you and then everyone else just mauls you at the same time. But most of the time, you're not in much danger, yet you have enough on your hands to not care about it. So... play Warriors games, and don't stop at "why do all the enemies just run at you wanting to get slaughtered and do nothing ?"

I do play warrior games it just seems like the enemies(well the lackeys not commanders) are being a lot less active in this one so i'm assuming the game is on easy mode for demo's and such or maybe i've been playing to much DWG3 & Reborn lately so i was expecting it to be like it is in them where the lackeys don't like to attack much if the camera is in their direction but love to ram and laser you as much as they can if their behind you or out of the camera view

Indeed, I didn't catch on what's going on with that classic Zelda Section... My guess is that's a side quest thing to collect more materials for upgrades when not on the battlefield. That could be a nice change of pace, since you'll be doing the same grind of combos over and over again within the main game.

Probably a good thing that some work went into explaining the Dynasty Warriors mechanics. It's not something that covered much even when selling the main series, and it often leads to new people wondering what they're doing or why they lost.
Cuccos have a very real chance of being a pain to deal with, though. Spreading them out and intermingling them with enemies will be damn annoying if it only takes a few hits for them to turn on you.

REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Video game fans will get the chance to play as the baddest bad guy of The Legend of Zelda video game series. Ganondorf, nemesis of Link and aspiring Triforce owner, will become a force to be reckoned with in the upcoming Hyrule Warriors video game, which launches Sept. 26 for the Wii U home console. Nintendo revealed new information about Hyrule Warriors during a Nintendo Direct video. To view the Nintendo Direct in its entirety, visit http://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-direct.
Hyrule Warriors combines two classic video game franchises, The Legend of Zelda and Dynasty Warriors, and challenges players to face off against hordes of enemies in epic battles. Some of the information discussed in the Nintendo Direct included:
Adventure Mode: Players are faced with a grid of challenges that looks like the map from The Legend of Zelda on NES. Completing each challenge unlocks a new region of the map, and with it, a new level of Adventure Mode. Certain characters and weapons can only be unlocked in Adventure Mode.
Costumes: Club Nintendo members who buy and register Hyrule Warriors within four weeks of launch will receive a set of alternate Ganondorf costumes as free in-game downloadable content. More details will be made available on http://club.nintendo.com. For certain other characters, Nintendo will make downloadable alternate costumes available as pre-order bonuses from select retailers in North America. Nintendo will announce more information about how to get these cosmetic add-ons in the future.
Playable Characters: In addition to Ganondorf, players can opt to play as various characters from The Legend of Zelda universe. Each character carries his or her own specialty weapons: Link (Hylian Sword), Princess Zelda (Rapier), Impa (Giant Blade), Midna (Shackle), Sheik (Harp), Agitha (Parasol), Darunia (Hammer), Princess Ruto (Zora Scale), Zant (Scimitar), Fi (Goddess Blade), Ghirahim (Demon Blade) and Lana (Book of Sorcery).
Weapons: A Chain Chomp will make a guest appearance as a weapon. As the story advances, new weapons will become available to some characters, such as the Magic Rod for Link, the Baton for Zelda and Spear for Lana. Weapons have special abilities called Skills that increase attack damage, or perhaps increase the chance of finding Hearts. Filling the Focus Spirit magic gauge will temporarily increase a character’s abilities and help to mow down huge numbers of enemies. And Bombchus are back, just bigger and more explosive.
Game Play: Players can level their characters up to increase HP and attack skill, or they can grab materials dropped by defeated monsters to craft Badges to increase a weapon’s number of attacks, create longer combos or extend Focus Spirit time.
Co-Op Mode: Two players can play a local co-op match, with one player looking at the TV and the other looking at the Wii U GamePad controller. Single players can also play on the TV, or using only the GamePad in off-TV play.
Locations: Players will face down hordes of enemies in familiar locations, such as Skyloft from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, Lake Hylia from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Twilight Field from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.
Classic Zelda Elements: Players will recognize items from their favorite Zelda games, including bombs, arrows and a Hookshot. The game is filled with familiar Zelda staples, such as Cuccos, Rupees, Gold Skulltulas and plenty of grass cutting.

Damn.. Ganondorf flat out owns the field! I'm so insanely curious about his role in all this now! He's not fighting Hyrulian nights... perhaps he's fighting for his own dark world... So many theories!
Also, he reminds me a bit of Thrall from W.o.W. ... perhaps it's just the hair and stage he was fighting in.

Yeah, I was going to ask what's up with the Fierce Deity mask there and the lack of freaking out over Fierce Deity being in game.
Not caring much for this Ganon's look. But that's been the case with Link and Zelda as well, so we're three for three, yay.

Ghirahim being playable was called out by anyone who played the Warriors games before, and Zant appeared a long time ago as a boss in a trailer, and was also expected to be playable.

Damn, those locations. The TP desert with the colosseum, the OoT desert with the Gerudo settlement, Temple of Time either from TP (interior) or OoT (exterior), the Lost Woods from TP with the old temple behind but also reminiscent of the LttP clearing, a twisted corridor in a mansion of sorts overrun by trees - the OoT Temple of Woods ?
edit Watching the Nintendo Direct video. The badges "Kokiri Sword 1 / 2 / 3" grant you extended combos. I love that system, that means stuff like the Great Spin (and maybe variations) or sword beam can be learned this way, a bit like learning them in the original games (Minish Cap for example), but incorporated in combos. The adventure mode sounds really cool.

The Ganondorf costumes are literally just him getting older from OoT to Hyrule Warriors.
Also that colosse. . .Collossu. . . Arena. Better mean Stallord is one of the bosses.

Though she starts off with good intentions, Cia starts to become attracted to Link and jealous of Princess Zelda. This leads her to go to the dark side and drag the rest of Hyrule with her.
Because of course it would.
Not only does this character wear a disturbingly sexist costume, but she also falls into a sexist plotline. Because what else would make a woman go evil? Ambition. But not just any ambition. Cia goes evil over her all-consuming desire for a man.
Cia puts me off as a Zelda fan. I look for comfort in a series that has made Zelda a beacon of wisdom in gaming rather than a sexpot or a damsel in distress. Cia’s design is disgusting, and fails to maintain the spirit of the Zelda games.

Zelda's in the game too. So is Lana. So is every single girl that got hooked up on Link through 3 games. They're all nice chicks.

I hope there's Gerudos in this game (other than Ganon). If I'm not mistaken they haven't been in a game since Majora's Mask. Gerudos were one of my favorite races in Zelda. But at least there's playable badass Ganon.
Also Fierce Deity mask badge is disappointing to see if that's the only place it shows up in the game. FD Link was always one of my favorite parts of playing Majora's Mask and it'll be a let down if he doesn't end up in the game other than a badge.
I'm liking the fact that the combat in this game is looking more like Sengoku Basara 3 than it does one of the Warriors games. I've played almost every Warriors game and the combat has never seemed to have grown in my opinion.
And OoT outfits look very bland to me. I can understand that they kept the models simple for nostalgia purposes but the textures still look like N64 textures. They should've at least made the textures better if they weren't going to add any intricacies to the outfits.

Link... The Hero of Hyrule, sages, seasons and time. Oracles are sung, tapestries woven and stained glass temples have been made in his legacy involving the Master Sword and one heroic man that single handedly has defeated the greatest force of Evil to ever inhabit their realm. If nothing else, he often seems to be the only competent male in the world when evil attacks.

It is not like they are cutting out chunks of gameplay to sell at a later date.

Still better then having to buy a collectors edition for them, kinda wish Skyward Sword was Gamestop instead of Ocarina of Time also Amazaon has Twilight Princess as their pre-order bonus.

The artbook calls female Link "Linkle". The variations of the weapons are interesting, and seeing that the chomper did appear as the iron ball in the Nintendo Direct, it probably means they're all alternate versions of the weapons that will actually appear in game. Cool. Probably the improved versions from the forging/merging option, in typical Warriors style.

Some people have gotten the game early looks like Midna only has one weapon despite the E3 stream showing her having a second one and people have started blaming Zant (but not Ghirahim) for it getting cut. Ganondorf also only has 1 weapon so no Trident moveset.

Way to literally objectify one of the Goddesses of Hyrule, Link. Can't wait for the Polygon article.
On second glance it looks like the item itself is a giant bottle. in which the Great Fairy keeps Link. So they're both propagating and subverting the "female character as an inventory item" concept simultaneously.

Hyrule Warriors released today in Japan, and to commemorate the game’s release, the official Twitter shared a message regarding future plans for the game, in addition to mentioning some fixes for bugs.
The tweet in question reads: “New information to commemorate the release. Hyrule Warriors is a “festive Zelda title” that was made with much effort. In order to have you folks enjoy it for longer, we’re currently planning long-term updates and a large-scale mode expansion. We’ve received a few bug reports, so we’ll be working on that as well.”
“For these reasons, the development staff will be working in the midst of Obon. Keep it a secret from everyone!”
Obon is a Japanese holiday that begins this Friday and lasts throughout the weekend. It sounds as though there will be little time for the Hyrule Warriors team to rest, though.
Hyrule Warriors will be released on September 19 in Europe and September 26 in North America for Wii U.

Pre order on Amazon, Best Buy and Gamestop. The DLC code prints on the receipt, so all you have to do is keep the Amazon copy, use the DLC codes, then return the other two copies. You never even need to open the other two.

Consumers who buy the game will receive access to a free download that adds a new mode, a new weapon and the option to select music to add to the game. Nintendo bills this as “DLC” (which is technically correct), but it is in fact the update detailed earlier this week.
Additionally, consumers who pre-order the game at select retailers will receive a free download code for a set of alternate in-game costumes for Link and Zelda.
Users who register the game at Club Nintendo will also receive a free download code for a set of alternate costumes for Ganondorf.
All of these costumes will also be available for purchase on the Nintendo eShop sometime in the near future.

Wonder who the 3 characters are well one is probably Skull Kid but who could the other 2 be.

Majora's Mask pack would be a decent place to introduce Tingle, since it's his first game and all, but it'll probably be something like Skull Kid and Fierce Deity Link. For the Twilight Princess pack I'd guess either Ashei or Rusl.

Yeah I would like to see him too. But I have my fingers crossed for one of the Aliens that attacked Romani's Ranch. Now that would be a interesting character to use, if Nintendo gets real creative with it. Like having it use alien technology and the ability to use the different masks from Majora's Mask.
Yes that is a long shot, but that's what I'm hoping for.

Nintendo's not working on it. Deku Link could be cool but I'd see him as a style for Link (a new "weapon") instead of a new character. For a new char I'd see Fierce Deity.

Bought a Wii U and the game, played it for the last two days.
Spoiler: Wii U(click to see content)
I like the pad a lot more than I thought I would, it feels nice and interesting to use... except when actually playing. Way too heavy on the fingers supporting it in the back, soon enough it hurts around the knuckles and up to the wrist.
I finished the story mode already, it went a bit too fast for my tastes. In Warriors, you usually get to use most of your characters in various missions, but they didn't give Darunia/Midna/etc. -centered missions, it could have been easy to lengthen the duration (although the restricted number of stages would have made it more repetitive, I guess). Also, with the stages they had, at the end of the game, I feel a bit disappointed that they didn't put up some exploration phases, even it it means cutting up the stages in parts to multiply small search/puzzle events. It would have been easy to do by simply doing the same but with very few enemies. The Ganon hijack was expected (I do like how the Cia storyline actually is only under two-third of the game with a section for Ganondorf going around conquering lands, that's a good way to make it longer, but it could have been more), it's a bit amusing how the hijack went, too
Spoiler: Good guys are idiots(click to see content)
"Link, go pull the Master Sword. Yeah yeah, it's part of a seal for a great evil, but the barriers will hold even if you remove the sword, it's fine." *removes sword* *defeats Cia, doesn't put sword back* *Ganon comes out* "Time to get that Triforce lol"
The battles are fun if you aren't repulsed by the Warriors style, they did well adapting the genre to the fantasy elements of Zelda. Ganon feels great to play as, Link is nice but his Special (Great spin) is annoyingly weak in how many enemies it can take out (he kills 30 in his best days when others like Sheik hit 40 to 60 with ease - she actually draws enemies into the zone of damage). Impa is so damn cool, kicking her giant sword to give it momentum before smashing it around, and even swinging it with her legs to slam it down. I absolutely love the musics too, I can feel the Warriors base for a bunch of them but those remixes of classic themes are great. And then the stages - the palace of souls or whatever, that twisted mansion, is wicked cool. Adventure mode is a nice way to make the game longer. It looks like that's where a good part of the unlockable are, too, which is another good thing to split that up across the modes. Compared to the Warriors gameplay, the dodge roll is a great addition, as is the lock, but one thing missing is the dash attacks. In Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate, they even made the dash attacks chainable into the basic attack, specifically saying it was to make the game play faster. I don't get why they didn't add that in here.
I preordered the full season pass and supposedly I got the Dark Link costume, but... how do I switch costumes ?? I didn't get the preorder DLC costumes for Link/Ganondorf/Zelda so I didn't pay attention, but where's muh Dark Link. Found it . Press X before selecting your character. It's written right there on the screen, but not that easy to notice...

Finished the story mode. The game is super fun and I like the pacing a lot. Favourite characters to play so far are Ganondorf, Impa & Lana. Never played a Musou game, so I just treat this as its own game and it's a good game.
I liked the story. It's so silly. Ganon hijack was better than ever. He becomes the main character for a few chapters. :D Why is Volga even here? He doesn't add much to anything besides being a more powerful enemy. Cia & Wizzro have much more impact than he does.

Yeah, Volga was just here to fill the Lu Bu archetype in the Warriors series. I thought Wizro could be a bit more fleshed out too - these two were just here to be henchmen boss. See, a Darunia-centered stage in the story could have fleshed out the relation between Volga and Volvagia, for example... Even though the Adventure mode takes the spot of the classic sidequests to get more items not required by the story, when guys like Darunia or Midna don't get their own stage in the story, they feel a bit tacked on too, like they were made playable "just because". On Midna : well, she just went back to her time, and then she came back, so they could show her be restored I suppose. But it sure sucks to be her. On the spoiler : yeah, but this time they actually say "go on, it'll be fine" and guess what, NO it's not. Even though they did do the "pull the sword, actually unleash evil by mistake" a couple times before, I don't think that Link knew what he was doing and that he was told "oh who cares, the seal will hold without the sword" (although other characters like Zelda may have known and just not told you). Other than that, Darunia is slow but super strong, which is cool, but Midna is hard to control and still weak, I'm not too fond of her. Impa, Ganondorf and Link are great. Haven't tried Ruto, and I haven't even unlocked Agitha for some reason (there's probably a mission that I failed in her stage). I wish the DLC included new stages in new locations...

Yikes, 50€. I'm way too used to the PlayStation pad so it feels like I have to squeeze this grip tighter, which is a bit painful after a while, but yeah, that's an improvement. And I can still leave the tablet pad on its stand in front so I still see the quick log view (with the ongoing missions and stuff).

Hello to everyone in the Americas. This is Eiji Aonuma, the Supervisor of Hyrule Warriors. The game is finally available in North America! Did you get a chance to play it yet? Hyrule Warriors is a fast-paced Dynasty Warriors game filled with unique elements from The Legend of Zelda series. This game was crafted by the developers at Koei Tecmo Games, who are also fans of the Zelda series, so Zelda fans should have a fun time playing this too. In addition to our hero, Link, you can play as a variety of characters like Princess Zelda, Impa, and Midna, who makes an appearance in The Legend of Zelda:Twilight Princess, so I hope you'll try them out.
Beyond that, additional downloadable content will become available in Hyrule Warriors after the game launches. The first DLC pack, Master Quest Pack, will be released on October 16. The details of that pack will be revealed soon, but today, let me give you a sneak peak at an additional weapon.
The new weapon added through the Master Quest Pack is...Epona! Some of you may be surprised to hear that Epona is a "weapon", but in Hyrule Warriors, she can team up with Link to attack enemies! I already had a chance to try out Epona in the game. By riding Epona, I was able to blow heards of enemies away and gallop swiftly through the fields, and I had a lot of fun trying out this re-imagined version of her in Hyrule Warriors. In the Zelda series, players never had a chance to tackle bosses by galloping around them with Epona like in Hyrule Warriors, so I hope fans will enjoy playing as Zelda characters in a game with a different type of action than you typically find in the original series.
In addition to Epona, the DLC will include other content as well, like new scenarios and costumes that will further expand your gaming experience. If you're interested, please check it out in the Nintendo eShop. I hope these download packs will help deepen and expand your adventures in Hyrule Warriors.

Woah, Epona. That's crazy, won't she be OP ? Well, I haven't unlocked the Great Fairy yet, so I can't compare. Also I preordered all 4 DLC packs at once right from the start.
I've been having fun playing the Adventure mode (that's where most of the stuff is unlocked, weapons and characters - Zelda is super awesome with her rapier), it's really well detailed, much longer, and tough. I finished the story mode in 2 days last weekend, and I've been on the Adventure map all week long. I like how they designed a path for you to follow depending on how well you fare on each mission, if you keep getting C ranks you can still follow the shit way around places, but get an A rank and you jump straight to the tiles with the cool reward item. I have no idea what some of the items are for, though - I don't see any place yet where I can use the recorder and the raft. Some missions are abusively hard and force you to level up like crazy (defeat those 3 giant bosses in 10 minutes ! Defeat 700 enemies in 10 minutes - with one more Gohma popping up every 200 KOs !), but it's great. Also some of them actually take place in parts of a stage cut off from the rest to limit the action, like I was hoping for last time, so that's nice and it changes things around. At least some of the missions have trials where it tells you "defeat the winged one" or "the one who lives in water" and you have to identify the correct enemy to beat ; it's still not some "go find X and bring it back over there" search mission (that would be cool) but it brings variation to the challenges. The "all attacks are devastating - kill 20 captains" missions are piss easy, just use the bow for a OHKO.

Additional Scenario: The Black Witch Cia The story of the Black Witch, Cia that went untold in the original tale. Chronicles five stories that occur in tandem with the original story, including her meeting with Valga and Wizro as well as her approach on Hyrule Castle. What is waiting fer her at the end of this tale...
Quote
Additional Adventure Map: Master Quest Adventure Map Adventure mode gets a new challenge-style map. Adds 'Master Quest' rules from not being able to heal, to not being able to use items. You can discover Cia, Valga, and Wizro's higher rank weapons as your reward. There's also other new ranks of weapons as well as 'Master Quest' style rewards to be found.

About the price, it looks like Epona, Cia's story, the Adventure mode, and the outfits can be bought separately for 200 to 500 yens each, but the pack takes the cost down from 1700 to 1200 yens. It's likely to be the same thing everywhere else, and also mean that the season pass will still include everything. For a second, reading the NeoGaf post, I feared the costumes were separate only (and that having the season pass still wasn't enough to have everything), but they're in the packs too. Glad to see that she also gets her own story, Valga and Wizro will probably be the same. Cool, that'll fill some blanks. Still wish there were additional maps and some more "adventure"-ish missions in adventure mode, but that ship is probably sailed.
I finished the Adventure mode yesterday (not everything but I got the end boss), it's been a while since a game took me a week and a half to finish ! And the extended map will be a full map on top of that.

Finally had some free time and I was able to beat the game earlier today. Tried out hero mode..omg these fuckers have so much health but I was able to beat the first scenario with no problem. Question for those that have the game, are there any specific tasks you have to do within a scenario in legend mode to unlock heart pieces and containers? I know for some you have to find them hidden in rocks and such throughout the level and some just randomly pop up when you take control of keeps, but even after doing these I'm still not able to attain certian heart pieces/containers . Also got some spots in adventure mode done(still have a fuck load left). My goal in life now is to eventually beat this game 100 percent just for the bragging rights.

There's been times that I've unlocked a chest while playing with my wife but I couldn't open it. She had to(as whichever character she was playing as). Seems that certain chests unlock when a particular character is playing in the arena. Or at least that what it seems like when I've played.
Title: Re: Hyrule Warriors (WiiU)
Post by: DKDC on October 03, 2014, 09:53:24 am
The heart containers and pieces are restricted to certain characters, their face is next to the icon when you're selecting the stage. That's the only restriction. BTW, it's the same for the second Skulltulas in hard/hero mode, it's even restricted to a specific weapon, the icon of the weapon is, again, next to the icon of the Skulltula in the stage selection screen. It's also the same in Adventure mode, it's more obvious there since the weapons you unlock have the same icon with the character's face.

Epona is Link's new weapon? Well guess you can't have a Dynasty Warriors-esque game without riding a horse somehow. If Skull Kid gets released for DLC, someone should use the glitch to have him equipped with Epona.
Also, any other weapons that could be given to the cast instead of having Link hog them all?
Here's three for Ganondorf: "Trident" allows him access to the trident he used in the earlier games. "Beast" turns Ganondorf into his beast form from either Twilight Princess or Ocarina of Time. "Smash" allows him to use the moves that he used in the Smash Bros series. And I mean the custom version of his moves like the sword version of his Warlock Punch.

... Oh god. You know that glitch you guys were talking about just now, where a character can get the weapon + moves of another character ? Well, the Master Quest map has one mission where Zelda is using Link's 8 bit Sword - not the 8 bit Rapier which is new, but really Link's style, with the shield and the moves. so no, I guess they're not fixing that glitch if they're even using it for fun. P.S. Volga's a fucking beast to play with. edit : ... and Epona is a freaking bulldozer running on nitro.

Dunno what happened there. Guess I found outdated info?

Yeah, it's my first Wii U game and the DLC was quite confusing. I search the eShop from the game, then I quit, then I searched the eShop outside the game, tried from the game again, and after a while of looking everywhere, when I restarted the game once more, the update finally DLed and installed itself. It's an update as well as a DLC, it comes together... I think it actually came online in the middle of the day, too.
I saw a Zelda using Sheik's harp as a boss of a mission. They really just embraced that glitch. I think that's a nice attitude instead of fixing it because it's abnormal, it's a fun glitch. edit - from checking around, it seems the glitch is done in co-op mode between two characters that both have more than one weapon. So Zelda having Sheik's harp... means they actually expanded on that glitch, they did more than what we can get with it. They really just said screw it, we like it.

Of all the heroes, I've got to say the most cringworthy is Agatha... Other characters can at least compensate for any dislikes in design in their gameplay.
I'm finding Fi and Zant more useful and satisfying than Agatha.

Koei Tecmo seems to be pleased with the performance of Hyrule Warriors. During the company’s latest financial earnings Q&A, Koei Tecmo couldn’t say if the game surpassed the 500,000 target since Nintendo handled publishing in the west. However, Hyrule Warriors’ Japanese sales are in line with what was expected, and overseas sales are above expectations. There are hopes for even higher sales outside of Japan with more shipments in the second half of the fiscal year.
That's good news maybe this means we'll get a Hyrule Warriors 2 or it leads to another Nintendo Musou like Fire Emblem Warriors.

I literally plugged in the Nintendo Direct just when they revealed that the Link Amiibo compatibility would give Link the Spinner weapon. Other Amiibos will be compatible for much lesser features but no one cares about those. That's... Kinda random and one-time feature.
edit - you know, if Link really is supposed to have 12 weapons like it was hinted a while back, maybe they just didn't know how to have them unlocked. Maybe things will get more and more random on DLC and "beyond the game" connections to get more Link weapons. Ubisoft just revealed that you could get a special weapon/armor/hood for Assassin's Creed Unity if you bought fucking shaving cream, so who knows if Link's weaponry won't end up in a similar situation.

http://www.siliconera.com/2014/11/05/zelda-amiibo-unlocks-hyrule-warriors-weapon/ Zelda's Amiibo unlocks a weapon too. Not specified which, presumably a weapon for Zelda. Now I'm expecting a Ganondorf Amiibo to unlock Phantom Ganon on his horse, with his skull mask, and the trident. But then again, since they're "buy the figure, get the weapon" one-time bonus, that's kind of like a DLC that costs the price of the figure, and it's not that great if several come out... Well, that's if you don't use the Amiibo for anything else, of course.
Title: Re: Hyrule Warriors (WiiU)
Post by: Girard on November 07, 2014, 03:31:30 pm
Yeah not sure what Omega Force and Nintendo were thinking with making new weapons attached to Amiibo's at least with Smash 4 and Mario Kart 8 the Amiibo's use aren't anything important like a moveset. A costume or new weapon skin would of been a better unlock. Luckily my love of Zelda meant I was gonna buy all the Zelda ones anyway but I hope they release the weapons to be purchased as a cheaper download for people who don't wanna buy an amiibo. I wonder what Zelda's new weapon will be, a moveset based on controlling a phantom would be cool.

Using the Zelda amiibo with Hyrule Warriors will unlock a three stars or higher weapon for players to use, according to Nintendo’s amiibo product page.
Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma has revealed the new playable character coming to Hyrule Warriors via the next round of DLC.
The Twilight Princess Pack, which launches on November 27, will add Twili Midna. New weapons, costumes, and an adventure map are also included.
“When I was developing Twilight Princess, I thought it was such a waste to let a beautiful princess like her only appear in the ending,” Aonuma said in a new Miiverse post. “Now Koei Tecmo Games has made my wish to see more of her come true.”
Check out Aonuma’s full Miiverse post below: (https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAADMUKmKGDgYTg)

Greetings to everyone in our The Legend of Zelda community! I'm Eiji Aonuma, the supervisor for Hyrule Warriors, and I'm happy to talk to you all again. The second DLC pack for Hyrule Warriors, the Twilight Princess Pack, will be released soon, so today I would like to give you a sneak peek at what's inside. The highlight of the first DLC pack, the Master Quest Pack, was being able to team Link up with Epona. This time around, there will be a new playable character - someone from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess... Who do you think it is? Here's a hint: this character only appeared in this form at the very end of Twilight Princess. In that game, Midna is cursed and cast out from the Twilight Realm, but now you will be able to unleash her true form as Twili Midna! When I was developing Twilight Princess, I thought it was such a waste to let a beautiful princess like her only appear in the ending. Now Koei Tecmo Games has made my wish to see more of her come true. Twili Midna's weapon is the Mirror of Twilight, which appeared in Twilight Princess. This mirror was destroyed at the end of that game, but it's pretty amazing in Hyrule Warriors. In fact, I can't describe in words what's so amazing about it, so I hope you'll download this DLC pack and see for yourself. In addition to Twili Midna, the Twilight Princess Pack includes new weapons, costumes and an adventure map, so if you played through the original game, they should contribute to the fun you'll have in Hyrule Warriors. (For one of the costumes, you can dress Link up as a certain familiar character from the Zelda series. It may make you say ""Wow!"" so I hope you'll look forward to it.) The second DLC pack for Hyrule Warriors, the Twilight Princess Pack, will be released globally on November 27!

There's no way it's not Skullkid (with the Moon, the Giants, the bosses, and Majora's Wrath as guests, he'll be on the hardcore side), now that the TP character is Midna. Didn't expect her to be counted as a separate character though, for some reason I imagined she'd be counted as a weapon like Epona and the Great Fairy (thus leaving the "new character" spot for yet another character) but it's just fine like that (and I guess new model + voices has to make her a different character). About time we had news about that pack, too !

There's two characters for majora's mask, skull kid is a given. I don't know who the other will be. I want it to be the happy mask salesmen, for the WTF factor alone, though Tingle does it as well.

The second DLC pack for Hyrule Warriors will be available on 11/27! In this pack, you’ll get Twili Midna as a playable character, a new weapon for Zelda, a Twilight Princess themed Adventure Mode map, and two additional costumes including the Postman costume for Link!

A weapon for Zelda ? She doesn't have anything special in TP that she doesn't already have... The same way the Wind Waker is used by Link but originally belonged to the King of Hyrule, I guess she'll get a weapon used by Link in TP but which fits the royal family better. So... Dominion Rod, also belonging to the royal family ? Wonder what they'll pull with that, it's pretty boring. Might be a little more interesting if it gets mixed somehow with the armor set she possesses in Phantom Hourglass.

So the 1.4.0 update and DLC is now live.
1.4.0 update info said:
The maximum warrior level is now 150! You can now carry up to 999 of a single type of material! New mixtures have appeared in the Apothecary! New medals are waiting to be won! You can now receive amiibo presents! Touch an amiibo to the GamePad while on the title screen to get a random bonus. An amiibo can give you only one present a day, but you can receive up to five presents if you use five different amiibo!
Title: Re: Hyrule Warriors (WiiU)
Post by: DKDC on November 27, 2014, 06:47:20 am
There's also this : enemies can drop two pieces of material at once. Including bosses ! e.g. I just did a mission on the Twilight map and Wizzro dropped two "Wizzro's robe" item. Not sure yet if that's just for the Twilight map in adventure mode, but that would seem odd to me. It appears to be related to the new limit on items number.
edit it looks like the "get two items" is only on the Twilight map after all. Also, trailer. http://www.allgamesbeta.com/2014/11/hyrule-warriors-twilight-princess-dlc.html

Remember those retailer exclusive Hyrule Warriors costumes? By pre-ordering the game at Amazon, Best Buy, or GameStop, players could receive Link and Zelda costumes based on Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword, and Ocarina of Time respectively.
Koei Tecmo has now revealed that these costumes will be available for purchase – at least in Japan – starting on December 18.
Here’s the full breakdown of content: “Courage” Costume Set – 400 yen – Includes Skyward Sword, Twilight Princess, and Ocarina of Time Link costumes
“Wisdom” Costume Set – 400 yen – Includes Skyward Sword, Twilight Princess, and Ocarina of Time Zelda costumes
“Power” Costume Set – 300 yen – Includes Twilight Princess and Ocarina of Time Ganondorf costumes
Nintendo hasn’t said anything about selling this DLC in the west, but I’d say it’s likely that the costumes will be offered in North America and Europe next month as well.
Wish they did Zelda and Link as Game sets fells like i'm gonna be wasting money when buying the Courage and Wisdom set since i have the Skyward Sword Costumes.
Also instead of getting another recolor Ghirahim got his Fire Sanctuary appearance this time around. (http://i.imgur.com/RRu0bPt.jpg)

The DLC costumes for Hyrule Warriors can now be purchased in North America. You can grab the Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword, and Demon King Costume Packs for $0.99 each.
The first three DLC sets offer new costumes for Link and Zelda. The Demon King set, on the other hand, provides new costumes for Ganondorf.
Players could obtain the Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, and Skyward Sword packs as pre-order bonuses. Ganondorf’s DLC was made available as an early bonus to Club Nintendo members.
