They should've done with Impa what they did with SS Impa in HW. Young Impa looking exactly like Paya is kinda dull.

It's so cool to see this really empty-feeling melancholy game just be completely filled with character models (even if it's all fodder)
It kinda makes for a good theme to the trilogy.

AoC is watching a thriving world be destroyed.

BotW is a dying world struggling to survive.

I imagine BotW2 will be about rebuilding.

I see people are down on the english dub in here....but honestly they all sound better than they did in BOTW to me especially Daruk

I love that they are fleshing even more Zelda during the final hours of the Calamity... this story is going to be so sad and good :weak:

I don't see whats wrong with the english dub. Revali and Urbosa always sounded great too me. The only ones I was iffy about before were Mipha, Daruk, and some of Zelda's. And in this trailer Mipha and Daruk sounded a bit better.

English dub sounds fine and like BotW will sound better in context.

Anyone have the art they showed for Impa? It was awesome

Daruk is the only one who sounded worse to me--it sounds as if a different voice actor's voicing him, or that same voice actor's not doing as deep a voice.


Still sounds like how I think a goron should sound, though. I'm satisfied by the English voice acting so far. Not every line can be a winner.

God that looks amazing. Eng dub is still weird (especially the Deku tree) but I can live with it.

I need more Urbosa and baby Sidon

This game is such a tease with how it looks like Botw!!!
Never played a warriors game but I'm getting this.

I had to watch the trailer on mute. But are musou games considered good now, or was HW better than the usual ones? I'm not trying to be hating, I'm genuinely curious. I've never played them because they look like button mashing nonsense. I could understand that being decently fun though.

You could say the same of Miles and Cyberpunk. At least with a Nintendo game you know it won't be $20 in a few months.
Thats exactly why I won't buy Cyberpunk at launch. Made that mistake with TW3. Now I bought the season pass but never played Blood & Wine because I couldn't go back to it.

And I doubt Miles will drop quickly in price due to it being a launch game. Those usually don't drop as fast.

You couldn't button mash your way through the first HW. You have to think about which strongholds and outposts to take, when to advance and when to fall back, when to rescue or escort or reinforce or intercept, the objectives being dynamic and ever-changing. In HW1's Adventure Mode the missions could last a half-hour but you would wipe out quickly if you weren't constantly planning three steps ahead.

Younger Impa and Paya don't look *exactly* the same, but they do look *very* similar. Maybe that's why Paya is Impa's chamberlain, she reminds her of her younger self.

Japanese Dub was great.
Damn....yeah it was. If I am able to play this with Japanese audio with English subs I just might. That gameplay vid looks good as hell too. The only musou game I've really ever sunk any time into was Ninety Nine Nights on the 360...and it almost/did red ring my system. I don't know if it pushed it too hard and caused it to get hot, melting the solder or if it was coincidence; but I immediately had issues after playing it. That Impa gameplay reminds me the most of that game and I am absolutely okay with it. I need to play the other Hyrule Warriors game too.

Not gonna lie, for a while I tought they would reuse some Impa moveset from the first HW replacing her Biggoron Sword with The Edge of Duality or the Sheikah Spear but I love they basically went full ON with the Ninja aesthethic instead of the Samurai one

Her moves resemble those of the final boss fight from the BotW Champion's Ballad DLC, Maz Koshia =) . Really happy about that. Wonder if she also gets to turn into a giant.

I also thought the English dub was fine. Didn't mind it at all in that trailer. I'm excited for this, the gameplay looked really good.

Some frame drops during action scenes, but yeah I'm looking forward to playing as the Champions. Hopefully you play as Link in fewer instances the Champions like Urbisa and Revali.
Edit: I might wait for the Switch Pro to play this, the framerate could use some ironing out.

Yes, this looks great! I loved hyrule warriors and fire emblem warriors and this will definitely have higher production value than those, can't wait!

I can understand where he is coming from if he only watched the trailers for HW1. Having never played a musou game before they gave the impression that the gameplay consisted of little more than murdering dozens of bokoblins at a time, which would be pretty boring. It took watching someone playing the first adventure map (back when that was the only one available) to get a grip on what the gameplay was like. 30 minutes is a bit excessive, I would say 15 just because of the time requirements for an A rank.

For those not familiar with the series, the weak guys without a health bar are basically walking special meter charges. Murder them for either your KO requirement for rank or if you need more special. Or to reveal a keep boss in Hyrule Warriors case.

It is so strange Nintendo does not upload a direct feed of the gameplay and just uploaded the trailer. This is their biggest holiday title and people are getting familiar with it looking at stream quality video with Japanese commentary.
