What a good game this is! I didn't know what to expect even after watching gameplay videos for this game. I bought it used ($34 at gohastings) because if I didn't like the game, I didn't want to be pissed paying full price. Man I'm glad I got it now. I never played Destiny Warriors or whatever this game was based off of so I'm not familiar with the gameplay. They pretty much drop you into the game. Sure they give you little tutorials here and there but many things I had to learn just by playing it. I think I pretty much have everything down except some things about the map but I'll figure it out.

Question about DLC... should I get it now? Would I ruin it by not playing the game though first before getting the DLC or does it really not matter?

The only thing I don't like about the game is that it's pretty glitchy and not as smooth as I know it should be. Sometimes the camera view drives me crazy. hopefully if they make another one, they spend more time on that.

Also, is there a way to keep your target on an enemy until they die? Holding it down doesn't work. I have to keep pressing L every so often to get targeted on an enemy.

 

It doesn't matter when you purchase the dlc pack, however if you want the dark link costume then you should by the bundle prior to the release of the dlc. Content-wise you won't be able to do more than the sidestory of the legend mode unless you finished the majority of the base game due to it's difficulty.

The reddit sub has a bunch of tutorials so if you still struggle, then you should pay it a visit.

 

I have the same problem sometimes, it's annoying but you'll get used to it

 

Again, Koei Tecmo...

 

Don't spend too much on this. It's not worth it.

If you reskinned a DW game on PC with Zelda content it'd be pretty much identical because after all it's just a reskin. And as for music just play any of its scores.

 

No.

Every DW is identical as Omega Force just changes the skins and then sells it as a "new" game.

It's much of an update like EA updating the roster of FIFA/Madden/NHL and selling it as the next new game in the series.

 

If you buy the game, it's money well spent.
The amount of content you get is amazing, and if you buy the Hero of Hyrule DLC you can keep yourself occupied for a couple of weeks atleast...

I've never played any games like this before, but i have to admit that i simply love it.

Ohh, and don't listen to WiiCube, he clearly has no idea of what he's talking about.

 

Last weekend I played Mystic Heroes on Gamecube. Still more fun than this game, you should try it out. : )

I still don't like HW for the "fake" extra content in my opinion. The game feels uncomplete without the DLC, and even then it does not add much more to the game. Not more monsters or stages, just new variations of the same things - again, and again and again.

Mission A: 1 Dongodongo
Mission B: 2 Dongodongo
Mission C: Damn, we've run out of ideas.. wait! Let's do it like in mission A, but when you get hit you lose all your hearts but one. Amazing idea!
(That's Nintendos idea of difficulty in a nutshell by the way. "Hero mode"? More like "We are to lazy to really change something in the game, so no hearts and double damage for you mad adventurers. Have fun with this senseless change we did in 2 minutes!")

And the characters scream too much. Like all the time.

Its a solid game of course. But in comparison to Mystic Heroes it tries to be more than it is in reality - a monotone slasher taking a ride on the Zelda franchise. But it has a good artstyle.
