Some of the levels in Hyrule Warriors are fucking impossible to beat on your own. There's literally so much shit happening simultaneously that you can't physically be everywhere at once, so you need to play with a friend to divvy up all the tasks. And I feel they really dropped the ball on this one. I've gone to Wong's house twice to help out with the missions she's stuck on and she's ahead of me, so there's a part of my mind that's thinking, "...Jesus Christ, in about a week or two when I catch up, I'm gonna have to do all this shit over again." Why the hell didn't they make a fucking online multiplayer co-op mode? That way we can work on it from our respective accounts and reap the rewards together. What makes it extremely aggravating is they did a half-assed online thing, where random players' icons will appear on your map, and you can help them with a level. Not help them beat it, but beatit yourself and they receive some money or whatever.

I'm trying to figure out whether to blame Nintendo or Toei for this. I haven't played any Dynasty Warriors game, so I can't say whether Toei has the capability to make an online engine or not. And Nintendo's online capabilities were always shit. Perhaps it's a combination of the two.
