I am not a Musou guy. I've only played pic related, and it's sequels. I thought that they were pretty fun. In the grand scheme of things in terms of the Musou games, where do the Hyrule Warriors game fit in? Are they considered among the better Musou games?And are there any other Musou crossover games that are actually good? Been reading Berserk so I have been thinking about picking up Band of the Hawk.
>>732738240The one piece musou games are pretty good in my opinion.
>>732738240>Musou crossover games that are actually goodmost people consider the spin off musous the peak because omega force has their retardation reined in a lot and they have a really high level of polish. i'm playing three hopes right now and it is really good
It's probably the peak of the Musou series. Very fast paced, good music, good characters, tons of content.Older Dynasty Warriors/Samurai Warrior games are much slower and filled with a bunch of same face ching ching bing bongs, but they're fun if you want to fight in Japan or China. Or the cross battle Orochi Warriors which takes both series into a more fantasy world. There's other stuff like Fist of the North Star, Gundam, One Piece, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, etc, but they all have variations of gameplay rules.
>>732738240Persona 5 Strikers is neat because it's not structured like most Musou games. It's structured like a regular Persona game that happens to use Musou combat, and you have actual areas with platforming, puzzles, etc, along side that.
the cool thing about the spin off musou games is how hard KT tries to capture the spirit of the original games/series. the dragon quest one is literally just a dragon quest game with musou combat instead of turn based.
Pirate Warriors 3 and DW8XL are better games. In the case of DW and SW, if you know the history behind the roster, it's much better and a lot more fun when you see some of their portrayals. Hyrule Warriors is bogged down by padding, tedious bosses and a sort-of-okay roster, there was still room for a lot more. The BotK musous were weak and a step down from the fanservice of the original game.
>>732738240Still the best 4chan ad
>>732738818I don't know how the fuck they thought it was okay to not include Vatii in HW. Also no ALTTP representation? Not even a stage? C'mon!
>>732739684I've always heard rumors about the lack of Capcom characters in HW due to KT and Capcom having bad history.
>>732738240Hyrule Warriors DE and Fire Emblem Warriors (first one, haven't played the other one), are really good.Fire Emblem Warriors suffers from clone syndrome and almost every character is a clone of another or several others, sharing the same movesets, but at least having their own different animations, which isn't has bad as it sounds for me since I usually like one character but not another, and can still play the same class (like Chrom vs Lucina). Not to mention DLC...But the best part about FEW is the CPU. You can send the CPU to do something across the map and they will actually fucking do it. Taking a fort? Killing an enemy? They can do it if you're not close to them (since they just revert to retards the moment you have them on screen).If you like FE and Musou games it's a really fun game with some great gameplay changes compared to Hyrule Warriors. Absolutely recommend it if you're a fan of FE Awakening/Fates/Shadow Dragon, even with its flaws.
>>732738818I thought Age of Calamity was pretty good. Imprisonment was a let down since they pushed hard that it was canonical in the marketing... but most of the story wound up being stuff we already knew, and we only received answers to questions that nobody was asking. Like the origin of that one big tree stump in Hyrule field being Calamo.I'd love if it we got a proper, fanservice-y HW2.
>>732739756Four Swords wasn't Capcom. Still lame. Oracles characters would have been cool too.
>>732739684The base game only focused on OoT, TP and SS and that was barebones. The villains weren't even going to be playable until late in the game's development, which also explains why Zant was so horrible at launch. Even when they added more games and characters, it was still weak. Marin? Agitha? Medli??? No Groose? No Saria? No Ashei? No Gerudo mobs to kill at the desert, no AlttP representation like you said, the list goes on.
I love it, packed with content, but it needs a sequel.
>>732740229Lana's Deku Stick weapon should've been for Saria
>>732738240>Been reading Berserk so I have been thinking about picking up Band of the Hawk.As far as I know, Berserk is OK. Doesn't have that much content, and it's not super deep. It's a good Berserk Game though.
>>732741241Yup. Rauru (OoT) should have had the tome and Impa's Naginata for Nabooru. Lana should have just been an NPC, it was really her game.
>>732738240It's the best musou ever. The charming characters and the weapon variety is par to none. Also BOOBS.
>>732738240Hyrule Warriors is peak, everything else is much much lesser.
>>732741593>>732741241>>732740229Here are characters I would love to see in a hypothetical HW2, along everyone from definitive edition:GrooseSariaNobooruRauruClassic GanonBlind the TheifAgahnimThe old man in the cave from zelda 1 (If they can come up with a moveset for Agitha, they can make ANYONE playable!)Thunderbird from zelda IIKafeiMalonTalonDampeThe Happy Mask SalesmanLink's Goron, Deku, and Zora forms from MMVeranOnyxOoa NayruOos DinBeedleAryilHumanoid VatiiBig Eyeball VatiiAsheiRuslLinebeckChancellor coleByrneMalladusThe 4 botw championsKassKogaThe 4 totk sagesPurahbotw link and zelda as separate charactersKilton and his retard brotherNull"toy" Link and zelda (LA remake art style)Uncle RupeeSome new peeps from the next major zelda assuming HW2 happens after that and the movieCuccooA Breakable pot+ atleast one stage from each game.If you think that some of these characters are literal whos, remember that they put in Agitha so anyone is fair game. Most of the original characters like Lana would likely get axed for a new cast, but they could atleast keep Linkle
>>732738240I liked Dragon Quest Heroes and really liked itdidn't play II so idk about that one
>>732738240>And are there any other Musou crossover games that are actually goodi liked gundam dynasty warriors 3
>>732738240I hate Fire Emblem, but really enjoyed the Fire Emblem one
the fire emblem ones feel cheap. hyrule warriors 1 sucks because the content is bloat and meaningless. combat is trash and you do a lot of waiting around till the enemy bosses stop being retarded. hyrule warriors 3 is the best one by far. much more polished and meaningful content. dynasty warriors origins is by far one of the best musous out there however. everything else can be ignored though pirate warriors 4 seems good as well.
