Topic: Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity

@Blooper987 it’s not random, he’s saying someone is baiting to get a reaction.

There you go

@jump the fact that it was rhythm heaven is still incredibly random. But it is the best Nintendo franchise so. As for the story thing: easiest way to get replies next to complaining about Pokémon. ( btw Pokémon is bad, hehe )

Nintendo games and their fishing. What’s up with that anyways?

Would be cool if this had a fishing minigame.

For battle bonuses.

@Eel as long as it’s with bombs rather than fishing rods so it’s like BOTW rather than OOT.

@jump @Eel technically you could fish with your hands in BotW. Wouldn’t surprise me if they do something like that with this.

Bombs would keep it interesting and quick.

Whatch out for the Zelda Cannons!!

I approve of random Rhythm Heaven gifs being added for pretty much any reason.

I’ve been wondering. Will they limit this to just BotW and OC or will we see more characters from ocarina of time and majoras mask. I’m fully expecting a roster with only BotW and original characters at around 15-20 and then we’ll see a ton of DLC adding other popular characters from the franchise.

@Blooper987 Since this is a musou game that's actually canon to the main game's events they're probably limiting it to just the BotW characters for the sake of story continuity at launch. Persona 5 Scramble did a similar thing where it purely focused on The Phantom Thieves as playable characters and they've not even announced any plans to add characters from the other games like SEES or the Investigation Team as DLC, despite the fact that they added songs from across the series as paid DLC or a preorder bonus depending on where you bought the game.

I don't think it's completely impossible to have non-canon characters within a canon game. Similar to how Elma shows up in the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 DLC, pretty sure that isn't canon. As long as the non-canon characters don't show up in the main story I think it's fair game.

I'm mainly just telling myself this because I really want to see Kass as a playable character in the game, but he wasn't born until after the events of the Calamity.

I'm sure they can sell some dlc based on "present day". The game doesn't need to be just its main story mode.

Either that or we get to play as Kass' mentor, who happens to Kass with a mustache.

Even if they just limit themselves to BoTW characters there's quite a few interesting ones to pick from.

Sidon, Kass, Hetsu, Riju, Kohga, Bolson, Kilton, and Beedle to name a few

Actually now that I think about it I really want Kohga as a playable character.

@HobbitGamer Heh, good to know. I typically avoided any and all threads about BotW after it launched, so I'm somewhat oblivious to some of the conversations surrounding it. Not that I've kept myself from everything, but I'm trying to go in as blind as possible.

I'm normally a Zelda completionist, but I don't think I'll be bothering with Hestu's Gift. XD

I hope they just stick to the 5 (or 6?) main characters. We don't need any of this Smash Bros 49 different characters nonsense in Zelda thanksyou

I prefer having a lot of options in a Warriors game. I only have fun when playing Warriors games if I have a few characters that I really enjoy playing as. Less characters means less chance I'll find someone I enjoy using. Unlocking new characters and their weapons/upgrades is also a huge part in what keeps me playing for countless hours after finishing the story.

@Cynas Agreed. And the way HW had more characters woven into the story was neat. Hopefully there's something like playing as bad guy's again.
