I check lots of people have a mixed few on this game

Nope Nope Nope Nope

just give us smash already

Hyrule Warriors, Tecmo Koei’s Warriors game set in the Legend of Zelda universe, has a release date in Japan. This week’s issue of Famitsu magazine reports that the game will be released on August 14th.

id have gotten this if i still had a wiiu

by the way, Team Ninja is making this game.
they also did Metroid Other M, just so you know

the main dev is Omega Force. I am pretty sure Team Ninja is just helping out.

Lol if there was ever a game no one asked for, this is it

Almost forgot this game existed

Looking really good.

Game is looking great, hopefully the EU release is close to the Japan release, this game could be a great substitute depending on when Bayonetta 2 will get released.

Seems Jim is pretty excited:

hmm been watching some gameplay footage. It looks alright... I dont really see the point of having so many enemies to fight if all they do is just stand there doing nothing.

The pure unadulterated joy of just kicking the crap out of [censored] everything. Muso games have never so much been about skill and difficulty as just destroying wave after wave giggling at your own awesome.

It's just fun to see waves of enemies fly away at the push of a button. What we are seeing is probably also very early game footage, like most muso games the waves will probably change tactics as it goes.

What game ever poses a challenge with normal grunts? The only difference here is it's expanded by 100 times more enemies.

I never heard anyone say damn those normal enemies where so hard

The only difference is instead of getting 3 or 4 at a time you're getting 100 for the fan service action and at the end you get your boss fights which like any game are where most of the challenge lies. No one wants to go through an open area game like this with 4 or 5 enemies that would just be boring.

Yes because I am sure that creatures in the likes of DMC, Bayonetta, GoW etc do nothing to try harm you... they do.

Fair enough and I guess I can see the appeal in that. Unfortunately it does not do much for me. OP Warriors 2 was not bad, but I recall playing an older DW and a FotNS title that I found kind of boring :/

But yeah, footage so far does not do much for me atm. But I am thinking the co-op can make up for that, much like it is in RE6.

They don't, they are grunts for a reason, a way to give players especially bad ones a way to gain experience or items to help further in the game when unique enemies come. It's the same with any game the only reason it stands out in these games is because instead of being given 3 or 4 grunts your given 100. It's when the unique enemies and bosses come into play that there becomes any sort of threat.

guy just read my mind
