It's a 2D Mario game. Visually, it's definitely a step up from the NSMB games but as far as gameplay goes I'm not sure if I found that much different/better than NSMB. Either way, I enjoyed it.
After loving both Hyrule Warriors titles, I wanted to give the Fire Emblem Warriors a try. However, this game is a definite step down from Hyrule Warriors. The cast is predominately from Fire Emblem: Awakening and Fire Emblem: Fates which I think was a missed opportunity to showcase more characters from past Fire Emblem games. I think the even bigger issue though is that the characters don't feel as unique from each other. Every swordwielder plays like every other swordwielder. Maybe this issue was also present in HW and I just don't remember but there were several times where the models for the enemies wouldn't load until I was pratically on top of them which made for an annoying game experience at times. The game also seems to have a delayed reaction to changes to the battlefield. For example, I would defeat an enemy and the game would have to go through several dialogs before it would recognize it. At the end of the day, it's still a Warriors game so if you're just looking for another one of those then it's fine but I'm glad that I waited until it was heavily discounted to pick it up. Even with the DLC, it feels very barebones.
I love games involving the ocean so I decided to give this one a try. Gliding around on the waves is smooth and fun but the combat is boring. You just mash the attack button to win. The side quests are also quite dull and usually just involve finding an item and bringing it back. The game can be completed in a few hours so it made for a short, enjoyable but not particularly remarkable experience.
