I would say don't get Bladestorm, the gameplay is repetitive/not very fun and the "campaign" is poorly constructed.

There is also camel cavalry, but sadly they kind of suck.  Gilles de Rais is the comedic relief on the French side. He's very child-like, which is kinda weird.

New Hyrule Warriors characters, OoT centric this time, including OoT skins for Link and Zelda and Ghoma as an enemy.      Lana (the blue haired original character) has another weapon, Deku Leaf, and Impa, a Great Spear. Kokiri Forest, Death Mountain and Lake Hyrule are stages too. Boomerang joins bombs, hookshot and bow as an item any character can get and use from a chest. Golden Skulutas appear in maps and are used to unlock art.

Bladestorm was one of the first games I got for the xbox and it was rad as hell. But then its been the better part of a decade since then so I doubt it holds up.

Holy gently caress is the level where you save Zhou Yu infuriating. Can I skip this and still open the hypothetical route for winning He Fei?

Wei says hi and informs you, unfortunately, that you cannot. On the subject of hypotheticals, I completed all the objectives for Shu's hypothetical then followed the historical route on my first playthrough. If only to watch Guan Yu die.

Impa's getting a Great Spear! Ruto and Darunia! I was so ready to write Hyrule Warriors off but its really shaping up to look awesome along with Zelda's kickass Light Bow dammit Koei I hope it's good It'll be a sale for me regardless if Tingle shows up as an enemy so I can pound his dumb face in

I don't understand Lu Su's objective- I know he's supposed to take the trench and kill officers really fast after meeting them, but I keep getting caught. I understand Zhou Yu's objective, but things keep getting in the way- in particular, I'm either late to knock down the guard tower, or I knock Xihaou Yuan off the bridge near where you fight him and he has to run across the entire map to get back. I'll probably just turn the difficulty down and breeze through it, I guess. gently caress time limits.

you are doing something wrong here. playing as zhou yu is easiest since allied officers are idiots and i dont think i ever fought xiahou yaun on a bridge. if something happens you can always save before every fight! or just do some levels and come back later, everything can be beat by giving a character 2 halberds

Goddamnit, i really don't want to buy a Wii U, but I miss Zelda and I really really want Hyrule Warriors. gently caress you Nintendo, I need my fix, but I know it isn't worth it. Fake edit: If they release a new Zelda game on the Wii U I will probably have to buy one. Fucksticks.

In DWGR, what's going on with the cards that unlock based on how many cards you've unlocked? They can't be referring to the total number, because I have way more than they say, but they can't be referring to set for their specific series, since some have higher requirements than there are cards in that series.  Also gently caress the last mission. Sure is fun when enemy aces kill you in one combo and can instantly dash through your attacks and behind you any time they feel like it.  DWG's combat isn't nearly well-designed enough to be fun with the difficulty turned up to the point where you can actually die.At least in DWG3 I could just ignore the last mission, but now it's required for all the DW suits. Assholes.

Those cards are actually the percentage of cards unlocked. The localizers didn't even care this goround.

For this level in particular, for the second decoy strategy, you wait at the garrison you've come to when Zhou Yu taunts Xiahou Yuan and Zhang He. That allows Lu Su to come around behind them and execute the pincer attack successfully, thus saving Zhou Yu's life. It also helps if you play as Zhou Yu, of course.

in other news, there is a mobile game coming that teases some new possible characters you can see on this twitter https://twitter.com/smusou7 from newest to oldest you have: yan yan, princess xiahou, xu sheng, sima hui, lady xu, sun yi and i saw wu goutai and lady zou in an article. yan yan looks cool but i really don't want princess xiahou in the game considering how uncomfortable her backstory is with zhang fei kidnapping her and all that

Well, they could just change the backstory for the game. They changed stuff like the Sun Shang Xiang/Liu Bei thing, or the Diao Chan/Lu Bu/Dong Zhou situation.

After all this time it turns out that Wei Yan's speech impediment was just her carefully trying to sound as masculine as possible.

A successor, a love interest, a daughter, multiple of these? Wei Yan was(I understand) treated fairly foully when he didn't even do anything. Vengeance would be a decent story hook. For all we know it's his mother.

Finally decided to dip my feet into Ambition mode. I presume that in order to increase my Allies cap, I need to gain fame, right? Allies make buildings, buildings increase fame cap, fame increases allies cap. One more thing: When you die or run out of time, will it send you back to base with the stuff you did collect, or is it "gently caress you, back to the title screen with you" Unlucky7 fucked around with this message at 16:24 on Jul 28, 2014 |
