Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Convince me to buy Hyrule Warriors

TheLegendaryWolf on 26 September 2014

Hyrule Warriors will give you a reason to play. It'll be a good chance to try out a musou game for the first time IMO.

Trying new things is fun, and even if you don't love the Dynasty Warriors style, there should be enough Zelda love to keep you entertained.

By the way, the challenge isn't really in killing grunts so much as it is in managing the battlefield. There are loss/win conditions beyond just killing enemies/not dying so it has a bit of a tactical edge alongside the combat.

I was never afraid of the game being repetitive, as a 'hardcore' Monster Hunter fan I don't mind killing the same enemies over and over. The difference is that in MH the monster are quite challenging (some even if you fought the monster dozens of times before) so it was never boring for me.

So what would an appropriate level of challenge be? Hyrule Warriors is roughly right in the middle between Monster Hunter Tri and Twilight Princess.

I don't really have a 'level' of challenging. I just prefer games where I can't breeze throw it and that I will fail missions and get killed from time to time.

Awesome game, brilliant fun and very strategic. There is also DLC support for the game as well, which looks pretty cool.

Very simple, convince me to buy Hyrule Warriors. Two things you need to know:

  • I'm a hardcore Zelda fanboy
  • Never played a Dynasty Warriors game in my life
Go ahead

THOSE ARE YOUR REASONS, right there...

1. The game is full of fan service, throwback to the old games, references than only the fanboys will understand, and you get the possibility of playing with your favorite characters AND some villains.

2. You need to give those games at least a try, if you have never played before, this re-skin is the perfect excuse to do it

Go ahead, buy it!

I'd buy it. So far it has been exceeding my expectations. It is really fun. I've played about 3 hours today already, will probably play another hour later.

This is my first Warriors game and Zelda is my favourite series.

The only complaint I have with this game: This would have been the perfect opportunity to have voice acting.

I have a general rule, if you ask if you should do something, you obviously want to, or you wouldn't be asking. You're just asking for approval from others to make sure your choice isn't a bad one.

So, we can infer that you want the game. The question now becomes "how much?" Since this isn't about eating another slice of pizza, it isn't so simple as saying "do it!" because it's $60.

IMO, you want the game but not enough to shell out full price for it. This leaves 2 options:

1) If patient, simply wait for a deal or price drop

2) If not, get it because you obviously want it

Did you just suggest to wait for Nintendo to drop the price?

That doesn't really happen, you see.



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

Untrue. Wonderful 101 can be found for a pittance, for example, and the Metroid Prime Trilogy was being given away for a while. Retailers will discount heavily to clear stock shortly, I suspect.
