Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity

SCORE: 61

I am very thankful my dad spent the money to purchase a copy of Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity on the Nintendo Switch after the PR and Marketing folks representing this game failed Family Friendly Gaming so badly. I know exactly what Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity is when I played it. This is a Dynasty Warriors video game done with The Legend of Zelda characters. How much longer before we get a Mario video game done in the Dynasty Warriors style? Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity sat in the pile for some time. None of were very enthusiastic about playing this game.

Let us be honest here Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity is a game we knew would utterly fail on our scale. We knew this game is not a high priority. There are plenty of better games to play and that is why Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity sat for so long. Plus when Nintendo’s PR and Marketing firm is so hateful to us - where is our motivation to promote one of their products? For me Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity is one of those ugh experiences.

The issues families will have with Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity is violence, lack of attire, enticement to lust, false goddess, and more. We have mythical creatures like fairies within Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity. I am not very big on the art style used within Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity. The classic Zelda sounds and music can be heard in Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity. As long as you are not hacking and slashing thousands of the same looking enemies.

Two family members can hack and slash all these enemies together if you feel like it. There are flashes on the map guiding the player where to get to next. The first level took me thirty minutes to beat. I did not destroy all of the enemies either. As players progress through the game expect to be sitting there a long time going through these long levels. The action gets so boring in Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity so quickly.

Different heroes within Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity have different abilities and use different weapons. I do like being able to upgrade the character and cook food to create buffs for my character. Crafting weapons in Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity is also cool. The glider from Breath of the Wild is also included in Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity. If you are into monotonous hack and slash video games and can handle all of the bad content then Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity might be for you.
