Hyrule Warriors
SCORE: 57
The WMG rented Hyrule Warriors on the Wii U for this review. The most
money this game is worth in this reviewer's opinion is twenty dollars.
Anything else is an overpayment. To make matters worse Nintendo is
trying to sell additional content to this game in the form of DLC.
Nothing like adding to the billions they already have in the bank. Makes
intelligent gamers realize the prices of video games are over inflated.
When will that bubble burst?
Hyrule Warriors is in the style of Dynasty Warriors. In fact Dynasty
Warrior fanboys will be right at home playing Hyrule Warriors. Zelda
fanboys, or Link fanboys will recognize characters, locales, sounds, and
weapons in Hyrule Warriors. The game play style is not like any other
Zelda video game out there today. Players hack and slash through
thousands of the same looking enemies.
The violence in Hyrule Warriors gets boring very quickly. How many
monsters can we murder? When have you had enough of that kind of
behavior? Enticement to lust issues on multiple female characters Hyrule
Warriors drag this home console video game down even worse. It is like a
millstone around the neck dropping the industry into the sea. Hyrule
Warriors is not respectful towards women in one bit graphically.
There is a deep religious system in Hyrule Warriors. We are faced with a
false goddess, and characters worshiping her. There is also worship of
fairies, and the religious belief of reincarnation. Wow, they stuffed a
lot of religious content into this violent video game that could also be
accused of being a bit of a tree hugger. Magic is also present in Hyrule
Warriors on the Wii U.
The music is nice, and we get the same Zelda sounds. A voice does recap
at the start of each level. Even when you are playing through
continuously. Player two also has to connect back in at the start of
each level. Yes even when you are playing through continuously. Annoying
does not even begin to describe that layout decision. The game play in
Hyrule Warriors is stale, and so last century.
Hyrule Warriors is not worth the price of admission at current prices.
Wait for it to come down, or miss this game entirely. You won't be
missing much if you make the wise decision to pass on Hyrule Warriors.
It is a real spiritual drain to play Hyrule Warriors on the Wii U. I am
glad I will not have to see this game ever again. Hyrule Warriors hurts
Nintendo's clean image, because this game is really dirty.
