When out of BotW characters to use, Alfonzo is in charge of being playable.

I was going to say at least you can fight as the champions fighting the elemental ganons but uh they get their asses kicked by them.

Yiga grandmasters may work (but probably not the dude in BOTW). That's another struggle with the setting is that they don't really have real, unique enemies... But presumably it was more prosperous then, so there could be actual villains around.

Nintendo apparently being very hands-on with this game means they could potentially introduce new characters that fit the era, though that by itself wouldn't carry the roster these games typically demand. Still, could be neat to see a character introduced here and then referenced in BotW2.

The alternative of course is that this game isn't really like the original Hyrule Warriors and is more like Persona 5 Scramble: smaller roster, canon story, refocused gameplay etc.

My first greedy instinct is to hope that this takes the huge, endlessly playable approach the HW1 did but I guess that game already exists so if they want to do something different here I'm sure it'll be awesome all the same.

Was hoping to see more of the roster but this is great.

They said they wanted to keep the character variety these games are known for so it should have a big roster even if most of them aren't in story mode.

Speaking of, roster thoughts:

Link, Zelda, Ganon, the four champions
Impa
Purah
someone from the Yiga Clan
that lady who murders you over some flowers Kilton feels like an oddball pick they would go for
like 2-4 new characters probably

and everyone else:

Vaati
Linebeck
Groose
Byrne or Cole
one of the goddesses from Oracle
Lana
Cia
Volga
Midna
Zant
Ghirahim
Sheik
Tingle
Skull Kid
Linkle
Young or Toon Link, or something like just "classic Link" maybe
Marin
Ravio

still a big roster with cuts because of the new guys. would love if they did an "everyone is here" thing with this but those are some high expectations to set

I can see them using this game to lay some groundwork/introduce some new characters for BotW2, assuming the main Zelda team had plenty of say in the writing of this.

Man, seeing a brand-new Nintendo game announced feels like a fucking mirage at this point. I'm not a HW guy, but this is definitely a big deal all the same and I'm happy for the fans.

I wonder if they'll continue with the multiple weapons per character thing. I really liked it because movesets basically are characters imo, but it had some cons like in multiplayer, which I played a ton of, it didn't allow multiple of the same character. So if I liked one weapon on Link but my friend liked another, we would just have to take turns playing him which was kinda lame.

I think Nintendo could add a lot of new characters considering they don't need to explain why they aren't around in the sequel that takes place 100 years later.

I think the issue is less "Why aren't they still around" and more "Why did nobody mention them?"

It would be easier to add someone who's, say, the captain of a particular army unit that gets shit done, but doesn't distinguish themselves to the same level as a 'hero', but someone who stands alongside Link as playing a significant role in turning the tide needs a reason to have faded into obscurity while the others became legend.

Like I was saying with Linkle- her personality from HW1 could be made so that she thinks she's helping but doesn't really achieve anything. Or better still, wanders off and accidentally achieves something significant in a way that none of the 'real' heroes notice.

I could see the campaign being quite low on playable characters. Just Link, the Champions, Impa and then Zelda at the end.

Then the rest of the game will be non-canon adventure modes or maybe canon side stories featuring BotW characters.
