Loving it so far. Abandoning Rescue means I've had to change up some strategies, but the teaming up mechanic is extremely nice, even if I haven't gotten a perfect grasp of it yet. Additionally, the game offers a pretty robust challenge. Good times.

Question on DLC.

Do you guys suggest it or does having like "Marth" in your party through the game kind of screw up continuity or the story in any way? Also does the little adventure or map that you do to get said DLC member kind of explain their story or character somewhat.

It's free, so I'd get it. And not to spoil anything, but the bonus characters (or at least Prince Marth) don't screw up continuity in any way. They wrote a fairly decent way around that.

They're not the real historical characters, they're phantoms that are based on the original characters.

So that's how they work around it in the narrative then? Makes sense. After all, it's only a side distraction to prolong the game so I don't think it needs to be intricate.
