I'm gonna jump in on Age of Calamity in a couple days. This is my first musou but I got the gist of things from osmosis and playing the demo a good deal. Is there anything I should be aware of?

this is my first musou and so far i've finished the demo and now Daruk's recruitment mission. Still trying to get a hang of his lava stone stuff. The map management stuff is turning on my brain cells, love doing all the stuff and reading up the cute descriptions. As soon as I finished Daruk's thing I went to camp and used rupies to make everyone level 16 and then fed their weapons, just left a couple with neat looking abilities that didn't seem to transfer.

oh and i love it when theres like one or two big enemies left and their back is towards a wall so I can enter Performance Mode and see how this would run on a theorical Switch Pro.

Gonna do the end of chapter 2 after the game awards tonight. I really like the pacing of this game so far. The story levels are hefty enough to do, there's enough side stuff to do inbetween so it doesn't feel old, the side combat stuff is short and sweet, and it just feels good even if i'm six hours and barely in there.

Just to be sure, the armor in the game is just cosmetic, right? There's nothing wrong with making Link wear nothing but his briefs and a hat?

Finished the story and hosed around post-game for a bit, but I think I got all I want out of this game. Great 27 hours, but I think I'm not into musou quite enough to want to max out all characters and take on the hundreds of extra missions. Still had a blast, story has me super curious

had to have it explained to me that Terrako's deal is that Zelda's powers kicking in during hte original timeline is what gave him those super duper powers, makes sense.

I really hope 2 uses the disparity between the original timeline and this one. Like, immediately Terrako lightens the scenario drastically by allowing everyone to use the sheikah slate's boosted powers, and specially helps mend Link and Zelda's relationship. I feel that means that a lot of what we see in AoC is a "lighter", more optismistic version of events from the original timeline that could be referenced in 2. Like, say, how Link obtained the master sword in the original timeline leading to Deku Tree not being optimistic enough to go into slumber, or that Aster's plans worked so much better that he never betrayed the Yiga Clan. But I'm also worried that 2 will simply ignore AoC.

I guess in my head it mostly depends on what's in the basement. If that mummy was Aster then 2 could dwell into who he is and why he did things, and how it backfired into becoming a rotting vessel. Probably meaning that in both timelines he used future knowledge.

Still glad we could see things play out, and the tone of the game's pretty good, makes me interested in speculating how things went into the original timeline, how many more losses the gang had to make Zelda even more on edge.
