Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity - When Breath of the Wild Meets Dynasty Warriors


I finished playing Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity for the Nintendo Switch. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity takes the gameplay from hack-and-slash, musou-style games such as Dynasty Warriors, and marries it with all of the other aspects from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. I remember playing a little bit of the first Hyrule Warriors game and the developers crammed everything Zelda-related into a game with no real sense of direction. Now that Age of Calamity is a direct prequel to Breath of the Wild (set 100 years before the events of BotW) and has a competent story, the experience playing Age of Calamity feels more streamlined and immersive than its predecessor.

My Top 5 Games I Played In 2020

This is going to be a filler post on this blog. I am going to talk about the five best games I have played in 2020, ranked from five to one. Some of these games came out prior to 2020, but these were games I completed in 2020. My only rule is that I have not played any of these games before. Super Mario Galaxy would have been on this list, but I have played the game years before for the Nintendo Wii, so I am not including it. Let us get on with it then...

The Last of Us Part II Review (SPOILERS)

I just finished playing The Last of Us Part II and I have a lot to say, though it is not what you think I am going to address. I know there has been controversy surrounding this title in terms of its direction of the story and the well-being of the people behind making this title, but I believe there is another issue with The Last of Us Part II that I do not see many people address. The rest of this post will contain spoilers about the game, so read the rest of this post at your own discretion.
