Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is now the best-selling Warriors title of all time

Friendly reminder to not feed the troll.

On topic, I also don't really see any major issue with the framerate. Only saw a slight slowdown once in the first level and one instance of a slideshow for a split second in the Revali level.
As for the game itself, it's alright. I prefer the story of this one over the first HW, but i miss the fact that occupying outpost want relegated to mission objective, but rather was actually strategic zone to occupy to help you achieve your mission. Also, AoC is a little light on content, without the adventure mode.

 

Not into musou but these that are being done for nintendo (FE, TLoZ) seems somehow good, ill try them some day.

 

Tbh the framerate isn't THAT bad, at least in singleplayer. The biggest slowdowns were in the first levels (the very first and Mipha's mission), but tbh I think that I'm just being kind because when I play on Switch I know that I'm making concessions. I just knew it would have framerate issues like that so whatever.
Also it's funny comparing the trailers were it's always a perfect 30fps lock, like this would be possible on Switch lol

 

The game is awesome... Got more soundtracks to listen to! The music team really did and amazing job. I liked the story too, for a lot of reasons. Still having fun.

 

Urbosa's special, holy shit what a lagfest that is.

 

Huge Musou fan here, since Shin Sangoku Musou 2 (Dynasty Warriors 3).
First of all, haters, F OFF.

Second, I'll be waiting for the next Switch/whatever to try it, since this game deserve better FPS.

Third, Zelda Musou was already easily the best in the whole story of Musou games, bar Musou Orochi 2, so it's really easy to see how this would be on the way to be become the best-selling musou game (Zelda name + BotW plot included + fame from Zelda Musou).

 

Well here's this week's miracle Switch sales story.
Nintendo must be getting bored of winning by now. Time to release the Virtual Switch U.

 

How can you claim piracy is running ramped amd at the same time sell games in this amount over and over

 

There are way more Switches sold than people buying this game, and there are way more games than this one alone, so both piracy running rampant and still sell games can be true.

 

Congratulations. I am a huge fan of Zelda but I am not buying it until the price is down in the future.

 

After a few hours I think the first Hyrule Warriors is tighter and better.

 

I know that but then u have games like animal crossing and super mario 3d all stars whos numbers are way up there. It proves that if you make a game people like they will buy it.

 

Is because the game was not 100% made for the Switch like Super Mario Odyssey.

This thing probably shares code with the Wii U game, that's the same problem Breath Of the Wild has.

 

The thing is the Switch isn't necessarily a 60fps console. Majority of its library is 30fps locked. We could blame the games for not being optimized which is part of the problem (Koei), but even if they weren't you still wont get its full potential performance. HW: DE is the only warriors game that Koei put more effort into b/c they were getting bashed for their previous wiiu/3ds games. In Fire Emblem warriors they gave us performance/quality mode, but performance mode robbed us of better quality only to gain a 5fps difference.

 

The game is not 100% made for the switch........ erm how do you figure that when its not on any other system.

Making the mistake of it having the same problems is because of nintendos shit hardware, in order to make it run smooth, it has to limit whats on screen.

And its pretty shit that today your getting games which crap magically pops up right in front of you.

 

Way to Go! I've been a Musou/Warriors fan since the PS2 era and I've enjoyed every single game I've been able to play even though they get a bit repetitive and formulaic, they're still pretty decent and fun to play.
I've been enjoying AoC so far. I'm glad they brought back the mechanic where missions appear on the world map, like in Warrior All Stars, my favorite Warriors game ever, and that features from BotW (like the cooking and hidden koroks) are also present. They did a good job with this one, not perfect of course, but I'm still happy it's selling so well even though it hasn't even been a week.

 

You're acting as if major slowdown hasn't plagued the warriors games from the beginning and across multiple platforms, especially when playing 2 player.

 

Doesn't surprise me, this game is much more closely a tie-in to BotW than the first Hyrule Warriors game, which was more of just a general series spin-off. BotW in particular probably joins the most generations of Zelda fans together.

 

well first you have to have an interest in the story of BotW , if you do , you'r in for a treat . Forget the idea of musou game or wathever this is too niche of a term , they slapped ZEDLA on it so your bound to bring in many people from mainstream ,a bigger group of people who probably never heard the term or vaguly seens some gameplay of the genre. So you got a New Zelda game , with the story Canon to the previous really mainstream zelda on a platform that is selling like hot cake to anyone .

so far im 30 hours in , i dont know if im close to the end of something lol . i dont wanna know i try to avoid spoiler .

i enjoyed every bit of story told and was impressed by how much they actually brought ,filling the gap with your imagination for some event , you also see the size the war could take and how the vaste plains and ruins and lots of stuffs that make you see BotW in another perspective , remember you wake up 100 yrs later as a bare warior who cant kill a moblin with a stick , from this game where link is a mighty warriors , and not only link but a vast array of character ,the old lady Impa as a young ninja ,etc .

the combat ,unless you just smash and dont care , can be so different from character to character , each uses it in their own way making for various plan of attack .and bigger enemy can get as teadious and fun to fight as a one on one fight in BotW , being quite different but taking some not of it like the furry attack from a perfect dodge as exemple .


this come from someone who played a crap tone of dynasty warrior on ps2 , then barely touched any and tried the first hyrule warriors wich feel more like a musou game than AoC and feel really different . Also a big zelda fan , exept for skyward sword i have done every zelda many times .

this is not to take as a zelda game or warrior game but a thing of its own .

 

Yeah and it's the best on performance as well hahaha
