I do understand where you're coming from, but I don't think that's necessarily fair.

For example, if it scores low, what's wrong with that?  It means that it's been scored in line with other Warriors games.  I think that's to be expected.

If it does get scored highly, you have to look behind the reviews.  Do they say things like "it's amazing to be able to explore through locations from previous games" or "I've always wanted to play at Ganondorf!"  In which case, the score is being inflated by the Zelda licence and it probably does deserve a little flak.  Not that there's anything wrong with that, but you can understand why people would complain.

And it'd solidify the game as "buy if you enjoy Zelda; don't if you don't".

Regarding sales - One Piece Pirate Warriors sold ridiculous numbers for an 8th gen Musou game in Japan.  It's obviously a case of a famous IP pushing the series to much higher sales than it deserved.  If Zelda does the same, then it's just another case of that.  Is there anything wrong with that?  People can moan, just tell them you disagree (like you've been doing with me this whole thread :P)

And if it bombs, then yeah, people will call it a bomb.  Same as any other game that flops!

This subject is Crazy O.o

I do kno if it gets lets say an 81, its definitely influenced by LoZ period. But then again, why shouldnt it (not saying you disagreeing).

I understand DW fanbase however as its a game they love but would be upset if only people cared for DW is cuz its LoZ. At the same time a game like this can open the doors for DW to grw, especially on nintendo platforms.

Overall this is definitely one of the hardest cases to understand. There is good points to both sides. It being a good mash up of 3 main LoZ games with so muh nostalgia in it. Then another saying will it give consumers a chance to look at the DW franchise as a whole now?

I mean SSB is a great game that lead up to many fans looking at other ips (course SSB is in its own league :P) HW might do the same for  a few.
