Same here, though Capcom's history with KT makes the chances of that dubious. The two companies have some bad blood between them, so KT may have made a conscious choice to leave any and all Capcom-created content out even though the Oracle-original content is still Nintendo's property. A pity, I'd have liked to see Din, Nayru, Farore, Ralph, Maple, Onox, and Veran all as warriors. I could also see costumes that reference many Oracle characters, such as Link (Ralph), Lana (Farore), Darunia (Great Moblin), Agitha (Maple), Zant (Onox), Volga (Dragon Onox), Wizzro (Agunima), and Cia (Veran).

From what I can tell, their legal spats started with patent infringement of a most petty and generic sort. https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/09/koei_tecmo_must_pay_capcom_more_than_usd1_3_million_after_patent_infringement_court_battle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capcom has long since given up making Basara into a prominent franchise and they arguably never even tried. Their approach has always been that Basara must remain a Japanese exclusive series and that they should go sabotage it when one of the games finally does make it into the west. Which is a shame. As far as Warriors games go I got into them through Basara and I appreciate its more wacky take on things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masamune just doesn't happen to be one of them 😇 Mitsunari is certainly someone I prefer in Basara. In SW he's just an irrational, war mongering tsundere but in Basara he's an over the top, screaming and angry zealot who's voiced by Troy Baker. He always makes an impression when on screen. His buddy Yoshitsugu also gets depicted as a very amusing James Bond villain which beats the rather boring depiction Koei went with.

Which means we’re gonna go from Wedge to Sephiroth on the current sliding scale of physical appearance. Given how the game currently looks, and how everything thus far appears to be tied to one mode, he likely won’t be playable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the latest Treehouse stream there's a blink and you miss it moment with the victory condition being described as ''defeat master Kohga'' It probably isn't the same Kohga. It's true that Sheikah are long-lived, but one would think that, if the Kohga in BOTW had been around at the time of the Calamity, his reaction to seeing Link would've been different from, "Hey! You're that Link guy I ordered everyone to kill!" The absence of any familiarity with Link, combined with the fact that he doesn't seem very old (Sheikah may be long-lived but they do show their age; Impa is 120 and she looks 120, as does Robbie to a lesser extent) and I suspect that the one in Age of Calamity is not the same one. Creating a Champion mentions that the name "Kohga" is really a title he received from his predecessors when he became the leader of the Yiga Clan. So it very likely is simply the the case that they share the same name; most likely to hide whenever there's a change in leadership as @Interdimensional Observer suggested.

Etrurian emperor Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Seems like we have our villain. Three of em. Fat jolly old Kohga is here though there's also a more serious Yiga with two blades. Which of the two is Kohga isn't entirely clear. And there also seems to be a Ganondorf priest running around. The introduction kinda seems like one of the villainous victory animation from Hyrule Warriors so they might be playable in some form.

I'm guessing that either this is him before he became leader, or he took command at a young age. Regarding the hooded character at 0:33, he looks sort-of like what I would've expected Kohga's successor in BOTW2 to look like: skinny, threatening, in-the-shadows, that sort of stuff. This person doesn't seem to be Yiga Clan, going by the lack of a mask, absence of any red in their outfit, and the completely different symbol on their back. By the way, does anyone recognize the symbol? It looks familiar, but I can't figure out where. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gerudo symbol being worn by presumably a non-Gerudo (given what we see of their face) who can command Yiga Clan members (given that they're kneeling before them).

Lord_Brand Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 It was mentioned that the title of Kohga is passed down through Yiga leaders. So this probably isn't the same Kohga as the one we later fight in BotW, he's just a goofy butterball himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That old Ganon's no match for the king! Though the fact that the page is labeled "other characters", and that Purah and Robbie are there despite presumably being unplayable, might not be evidence that he's playable yet. I expect that the seven we have will be the only characters used in the story, and that any other characters will be bonuses of some kind. Also, another trailer: Koroks and Hestu are back, and now everyone gets a paraglider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The white body is sleeping. I have a lot of friends but somehow they are burried in the grave Yeah that all makes a lot of sense. Especially the part where Daruk is a British chosen from colon.

Etrurian emperor Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 As rumored a demo will be coming out today. You'll be able to play the first chapter and the save data can be transfered to the main game. I wonder what they mean with the first chapter. Do they just mean the first stage, or a set of stages that make up one chapter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
