After watching the Zelda trailer, I was just curious - as I haven't looked too much into this game - what is the purpose of the Rupee drops? Is it like, going to be used as currency to unlock health grades/power ups/unlockable characters? I'm curious as to the purpose of that incorporated element.

The recent entries of the Warriors series have used currency as a means to buy and fuse weapons among other stuff like buying mounts and etc. I'd imagine it would be the same for Hyrule Warriors.

Lana's trailer is up!



Holy crap. This girl's moveset is insane. She's like Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, Gracia, and Ayagozen combined while being twice as fast than any of those characters. The rolling cube attack was pretty funny to see. Her Charge attack where she creates three barriers and pushes them forward will easily be one of her best moves to use. Lana's Musous seem to be standard fare with the exception of that wall jumping barrier one. That one is awesome. I'm glad Tecmo Koei is going all out with these movesets, I thought Zelda and Impa were fantastic, but Lana here takes the cake.

Here comes the princess of bugs! Agitha's trailer is up.



Oh my. It seems like even Agitha isn't able to escape the curse that is the parasol. As I predicted before, Agitha is on the slower side of the characters shown so far. Although, it does look like she has the moves to offset this disadvantage. A lot of her Charge attacks seem to focus on crowd control and I'm assuming damage. BUT HOLY CRAP, they gave her Siege Spear's C6. Good grief, that will be so abusable.

I'm curious as to what exactly she's saying in Japanese whenever she attacks...either way, I don't really see myself using her that much. Her movements seem sluggish in my opinion, and I'd rather have an agile character as my playbe person.

I'm actually not hearing any words from Agitha, let alone Japanese. All I'm hearing are giggles and generic battles sounds.

Lana on the other hand, is actually speaking Japanese. Although only two words, she does say "Sore!" and "Se no!". In the context "Sore" is being used, probably meaning "There!" aside from it's intended meaning "That". "Se no" means "Ready, set...!", similar to a count down as she says that before throwing a ball of mana at her enemies.

I guess Agatha's inclusion makes some sense. They probably want to include a wide variety of fighters, and usually there's always a fighter that fights with animals/plants and it seems Agatha fits that role. Just seemed kinda weird it's her because... she didn't really seem like a fighter but whatever. Kinda disappointed there's a new character instead of reviving someone else (even a minor one like Agatha), but whatever. Judging from the book she's holding, seems like she's the full-on Magic user since Zelda is bow+magic.

Everyone's favourite Twili. Midna!



Don't really have much to say about Midna honestly. She seems to be relatively fast, and she does have some interesting Charge Moves like the whirl and grapple attacks. In terms of moveset, I'd compare Midna to Guan Yinping. Meaning decent speed and movement, but ridiculous amount of damage.

I'm really interested in getting Hyrule Warriors, but there's a lot of hate in this game from the fans because of how infamous the Dynasty Warriors series is as Japan's Call of Duty, where it's the same game every installment/crossover.


Also, according to Famitsu scans, Fi is going to be playable, Ghirahim and the Imprisoned are bosses, the Wind Waker is a weapon, and Link and Zelda are getting Skyward Sword skins: http://www.famitsu.com/news/201407/08056716.html

Yeah. As a fan of the series, I can't deny that the core gameplay is the same each installment. But rather the series perfects and makes the core gameplay more comfortable for the player. Like I would say that there is a considerable amount of difference between Dynasty Warriors 7 when compared to Dynasty Warriors 8.

Funny enough. Koei actually listened to those people who complained that the series was too repetitive and not different enough from the last installment. In response, then they made Dynasty Warriors 6, arguably the worst Dynasty Warriors game. A game where they literally changed too much.

Also, according to Famitsu scans, Fi is going to be playable, Ghirahim and the Imprisoned are bosses, the Wind Waker is a weapon, and Link and Zelda are getting Skyward Sword skins: http://www.famitsu.com/news/201407/08056716.html
Yup! You're right. Even though you put the link to Famitsu, I'll just put the scan here.



Zelda and Link get new weapons. The Wind Waker, and Ball and Chain respectively.

Just plain getting MORE excited for this game the more they announce. Thrilled to see what else they bring to the table. Fi should be a fun player, but I hope we get even more fighters. Maybe some bad guys to play as or more fan favorites.

One of the best talking sword in the business. Fi's trailer is up!



Wow, she actually turns into the Goddess Sword as part of her moveset, haha. Anyways, Fi is much slower than I expected. Her movement speed leaves a lot to be desired and her attack speed is on the slower side. It would seem that all of her Normals involve a circular motion allowing her to counteract her slow attack speed, which is good. If I had to compare Fi to a past Warrior character, I would definitely say Nezha to a certain degree. The biggest difference is that Nezha is much faster, but the two seem to share some similarities in Charge attacks.

Woow, just saying that I never would have expected Fi to be one of the playable characters. This game just keeps getting better and better, I am loving the characters they are choosing to put in.

Zelda is back! Wind Waker trailer is up.



Oh, god. This is an unfortunate moveset. It's slow and its range is at most decent. Worst part is that it leaves Zelda's backside exposed, meaning she's going to be smacked out of her attacks mid-animation. Unless she has an amazing Charge attack that wasn't shown, Rapier is a much better option for her. Still cool that you can control the tornado for one of her Charge attacks.

Agreed, I'm with you on that analysis of Zelda with the Wind Waker. Speaking of which, why is she using the Wind Waker. Isn't that Link's thing? Hopefully that just means that items can be used on multiple characters because that really doesn't make much sense. Also around the 1 minute mark with that small cut scene where she initiates that tornado they use a LoZ song that's not normally produced by the Wind Waker. Hopefully that wasn't a soundbite from the actual game, because I feel like the Wind Waker should produce clips of music that it produced in it's actual game.

Nonetheless, I don't see myself using it as my weapon of choice. There isn't enough knockback for my liking from it, and that blatant opening in the back when you do the tornado is too revealing for attack. I like how they introduced the Wind Waker as a "weapon" per say, but I feel that it was a stretch that many players might just ignore when it comes to choosing their character set-up.

I'm guessing it would look rather odd for Link to be using the Wind Waker in a different art style that isn't Wind Waker/Phantom Hourglass? I wouldn't be too hopeful on characters sharing weapons. If it was the case that sharing weapons was a thing, it would be unlikely for Zelda to get a different Musou with the Wind Waker than she does with the Rapier. But who knows? Link still has one more weapon that hasn't been revealed yet, and it might be the Wind Waker. But I'm leaning on the chance that it's going to be Bow/Boomerang.

What are the weapon's he's currently using again? Sword, Fire Rod, and Ball and Chain correct? The Ball and Chain is one of my favorite Legend of Zelda weapons so I'm glad it got recreated from Twilight Princess. As much I'd love to see the bow be used, I don't think that he'll be using it considering doesn't Zelda use it? Wouldn't make much sense having two characters share the same weapon, and I don't think the boomerang will be picked considering it's never been a lethal weapon in the game. I wouldn't be surprised if it's either the Ice Rod or - which this is a stretch but I'd love to see it - the Skull Hammer. The Skull Hammer would definitely fit well for a Dynasty Warriors game in my opinion. Slow in attack, but the physics of sending enemies flying would fit very well for this style of game.

All of Link's weapons seem to represent a theme of Link's items. Sword is his obvious mainstay. The Magic Rod (yeah it's called Magic Rod in English not Fire Rod for some reason despite summoning flames), refer to his magical items. The Power Gloves/Ball and Chain represent the power and strength items. So, I don't see Ice Rod or Skull Hammer being the last weapon slot, since they're technically already represented. I'm surprised that they didn't use Megaton/Skull Hammer though. Of course this is all speculation, so for all we know I can be wrong whenever they reveal the last weapon, haha.

To be fair, Zelda's bow attacks are incorporated into her Rapier moveset. So, I think Link having a Bow as a primary as a weapon would be fine. Also, just found an interesting screenshot. Here. Shows Link with a bow, but seeing that his Sword and Shield on him, I fear that a bow may be a secondary item like the bomb and hookshot.

edit: Nevermind. Bow is a secondary item. Who knows what his last weapon is going to be.

I just want Beedle to be a playable character in this game. Him going "Oooooohhhhh!" every time he hits a character would be absolutely hilarious.

Beedle as in the Wind Waker version, not the Skyward Sword one.
