[Hours Left]

what handsome men from the Zelda universe would you like to see?

That's the problem, there aren't a lot.

Ganondorf and Groose I could see, but I really can't think of anyone else. Ghirahim could sorta be okay, but a big part of his character is how creepy he is. (Which I wouldn't want them to change, if they include him.)

 

[Log4Girlz]

 

[Big One]

I really hope they just don't stick to TP and SS characters in this game. I mean I get they're some of the more popular NPCs in the series, but you gotta cover the entire franchise, man. I want to play as the King of Hyrule, Vaati, Skull Kid (or Happy Mask Salesman), Aganihm.

 

[Hastati]

Ha, this is amazing


I made a quick doodle in Paint showing Cremia's UFO cattle-bombing attack

If you can smack dragons out of the sky with the moon, then you better damn well be able to shoot cows at enemies with flying saucers. Because Dynasty Warriors.

I wonder if and when the chicken raid will show up?

 

[Neiteio]

I have conflicted feeling about him. He looks okay sometimes, but other times he looks like Boy George. (Which is cool if you're Boy George.)

You don't get it

You gotta let the Groose... loose

 

[Hours Left]

You don't get it

You gotta let the Groose... loose

I'll let him loose, into a men's department store.

Dude needs a makeover, and some make-up tips.

 

[Fandangox]

You don't get it

This guy gets it.


I think.

At least I think I get what he is getting.

 

[Mr. Bamboo]

I want Tott in this game. He's so mysterious, and those dance moves could pack a wallop. Tassels in your EYES!

 

[Smiles and Cries]

As Link is I am totally selfish with the harem life he is currently enjoying

so don't mind if all the males are creeps

 

[Smiles and Cries]

I am so glad they can't really fit toon-shading into this world of Hyrule Warriors

so so glad Tott can't dance someone has to tell him the truth

[Neiteio]

Linebeck is the studliest stud-muffin

But Koei is racist against Celda :-|

 

[Earthpainting]

WAIT

What if King Zora is playable

I'd love see him walk or see him stand on his feet, but I'm afraid that still wouldn't cut it. To do it truly right, he'd need to have his buttocks firmly planted on the ground and move by slowly scooting all over the place.

I would feel bad for StreetsAhead

Nintendo does have paid DLC in some games on 3DS even though Pikmin 3 had nothing but free bonus stuff

this is very different I'm willing to pay $1

Pikmin 3 had both, free and paid DLC.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Pikmin 3 had both, free and paid DLC.

so we may get some stuff for free in the west but the rest $2 each okay with this

poor Hours Left, he is not going to get his dream is he?

 

[Mango The Magician]

Superior Link and Zelda confirmed for DLC, alas.

Also, isn't Argorok huge? Do these games shrink playable characters down?

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

poor Hours Left, he is not going to get his dream is he?

I think some of those have potential

 

[-Setsuna-]

Wasn't Zelda supposed to be a queen in this game?

 

[Smiles and Cries]

PR department calling her Princess Zelda is a fail when she is Queen smh

Superior Link and Zelda confirmed for DLC, alas.

Also, isn't Argorok huge? Do these games shrink playable characters down?

not humanoid not playable

 

[AJ_Wings]

Dat TP favoritism.

Not that I'm complaining.

 

[NEO0MJ]

Wasn't Zelda supposed to be a queen in this game?

Only after she marries link at the end of the game ( ≖‿&#8790

 

[BGBW]

I want Marin with the power of song and seagulls. Also because too many people are suggesting post OoT characters like the terrible people they are.

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

Dat TP favoritism.

Not that I'm complaining.

skyward sword has a number of minor characters that could be featured, but TP has the most.

 

[Necromanti]

Maybe they accidentally reversed the kanji...

 

[Smiles and Cries]

They did it! They somehow made the moon even creepier! I think it's the nose.

Also, (probably already discussed) has the sheikah symbol always been at the back of the Fused Shadow?

I don't remember seeing old backside images of it

 

[ElectricKaibutsu]

Maybe they accidentally reversed the kanji...

It says princess in her trailer too. I think she's just a princess who happens to lead the kingdom and isn't the queen for... a reason?

 

[BGBW]

She's likely queen but they keep the name Princess Zelda because that's what she's always been known as. I mean Princess Peach is the ruler of the Mushroom Kingdom and yet still uses the title princess instead of queen.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

the dev insisted she was Queen so it is strange maybe marketting is not paying attention

 

[Mr. Bamboo]

Makes sense though. Didn't the Dark Interlopers come from the Sheikah tribe, then were banished to the Twili Realm?

 

[Smiles and Cries]

this is not the complete mask but she also has the complete version in this game
not sure if they will explain anything about it tho

interesting that it has that symbol

but also the same eye design as Majora's Mask

Zelda world is strange anyway always borrowing symbols

you can find upside down triforce in Wind Waker but had no meaning until Link Between Worlds

Ha ha, no. It's definitely a mistranslation. And it's actually quite common for princes and pricess to lead a Kingdom. What the producer/director meant is that she has the role of a brave queen, not of a poor princess waiting for her white knight to come save her. Whether she is actually queen or not (or even becomes one during the course of the game) actually has no real significacence: she's gonna kick lots of asses anyway

 

[DICKS AHOY]

Love what I'm seeing so far, but I still hope we see Wind Waker/Skyward Sword/Majora's Mask/A Link Between Worlds/etc. themed levels and characters and it's not just the OG stuff plus a big focus on TP.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

Wind Waker without toon shading will just make fans moan too much spare me all the complaining whiny posts

they Hated on Wind Waker HD because it did not match the original so imagine what Wind Waker like would look like in Hyrule Warriors


@L~A too bad they are coping out on giving her the Queen title

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Please no, the arguments will be ridiculous

 

[Currygan]

looking better and better

I'd love to see a Hulk-type heavy now. Someone like Dangoro

 

[Kouriozan]

I like Lana already, her gameplay and design looks awesome.
Agitha looks good too! Those trailers/info does its job to hype me
Oh and Zelda costume for those complaining in the last thread about her design
Anyway, can't wait, the game will be glorious!

 

[DICKS AHOY]

Please no, the arguments will be ridiculous

I imagine there'd be morearguments if they don't include characters from outside Twillight Princess. :V

Unless I'm misinterpreting what you mean?

 

[Razgriz-Specter]

Wonder if they would do Tetra as DLC in HW's style.

 

[Golnei]

Regarding the general lack of husbandos in Zelda - did Horwell, Owlan, Osfala, Darmani, Japas, Kafei, Final Ghirahim, Pipit, Vaati, Keet, Mikau, Komali, Eagus, Ralph, Shad, Gondo, Ravio, Alfonzo, Pipit and Byrne stop existing when I wasn't looking?

Though I wouldn't necessarily be opposed to fanservice being focused on significantly more in future male character designs, so long as the characters were still visually varied.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

A lot of Zelda Characters are not fighters or Link would not have had such a work load

seeing Agitha of all people fighting means anyone can be playable in this game the issue will be how much of an art change fans will be okay with

if people would shut up Wind Waker characters would just come in looking polished like midna and impa

 

[YAWN]

I think Rusl would be a good male rep for Twilight Princess -

And seeing as we're getting weird with Agitha, why not Batreaux?

He has those scythes in house that could be put to good use, as well as a demon form...

 

[Speedwagon]

This keeps looking better and better. Midna looks great.

 

[Moonlight]

- Valga -- see above
- Wizro -- see above
- Cia -- see above

SAFE BETS:

- Ghirahim (SS was a big deal)
- Demise (SS was a big deal)

How do you possibly forget about Sheik.

Yes! I replayed Wind Waker after A Link Between Worlds and had a 'holy fuck' moment when I saw the upside down triforce on the door. If it was intended to be the Lorule triforce, then Nintendo is damn sneaky... and now I'm rambling and going off topic XD. Candy for all (throws candy)!


edit: also, my memory needs a refresh... wasn't Majora once a Dark Interloper too? Which would then make sense that the Fused Shadow is another one of their masks.

 

[hachi]

Brunette Zelda, thank you Nintendo.

 

[Dark Ninja]

This is looking better and better the E3 Build i played was pretty repetitive but its basically dynasty warriors so don't set your bar too high.

Not digging that Agatha model the TP one was much better

 

[SuperAngelo64]

ALL of the Resistance members from Twilight Princess better be playable!

They were such an interesting bunch, I wanted to see more of them.

 

[massoluk]

I'm kinda sad Nintendo jumped on costume DLC bandwagon actually :\

Extra stages and levels I can take it, but costume DLC just struck me as horse-armorish.

 

[YoshiStrife]

Sorry if this has been asked in here already, but how many playable characters do Warriors games usually end up getting? Just wondering if there is potential for more characters in this game.

I always loved Malon, so would love to have her in.
