Warriors Wednesday: A System of Headslapping – Warriors All-Stars #24 - Today, we manage to bang out quite a few missions, including recruiting everyone’s favourite mechanical marvel from Toukiden. Horo also believes she has the answer to the widespread amnesia problem certain members of the party have been dealing with: surely a good old-fashioned bump to the head will quite literally knock some sense back into … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: A System of Headslapping – Warriors All-Stars #24 Warriors Wednesday: Return of the Hungry Caterpillar – Warriors All-Stars #23 - In today’s episode of Warriors All-Stars, we once again discover that The Alchemist of Kick-Ass still isn’t quite ready for Chaos difficulty. Give it time! One thing you’ll find on multiple playthroughs of Warriors All-Stars is that you’ll encounter the same battles, but perhaps approach them under different circumstances. This can also end up leading the plot … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Return of the Hungry Caterpillar – Warriors All-Stars #23 Warriors Wednesday: To the Future – Warriors All-Stars #22 - Today, among other things, I ponder the future and what’s next, and I’ve reached a conclusion for now. At the end of this current playthrough of Warriors All-Stars, the series will be retiring for now. I haven’t yet decided if I will bring it back yet, but I need a bit of time back in my week, … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: To the Future – Warriors All-Stars #22 Warriors Wednesday: The Young Dragon – Warriors All-Stars #21 - Clearing the game in Warriors All-Stars once unlocks the hardest difficulty: Chaos Mode. In Chaos Mode, you’re presented with high-level, tough enemies but offered the possibility of better drops, plus a nice big multiplier of the rewards you get at the end of a mission. Sadly, Sophie and company aren’t quite ready for the primetime on this … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: The Young Dragon – Warriors All-Stars #21 Warriors Wednesday: Redhead Tactician – Warriors All-Stars #20 - Our second playthrough of Warriors All-Stars gets well and truly underway as we get to grips with Sophie’s moveset, and look at expanding Tamaki’s forces. On today’s agenda is Mitsunari Ishida, a vibrant-haired, brilliant tactical mind with his own strong opinions on how best to wage war. How will he get along with the rather … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Redhead Tactician – Warriors All-Stars #20 Warriors Wednesday: The Alchemist of Kick-Ass - Having beaten the game last week, today it’s time to start a whole new Warriors All-Stars adventure! This time around, we’re taking Sophie from Atelier Sophie as our leading lady, which puts us into Tamaki’s story route rather that Setsuna’s, which we explored last time around. This should mean we get the opportunity to encounter and recruit … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: The Alchemist of Kick-Ass Warriors Wednesday: Finale? – Warriors All-Stars #18 - And so, we reach the conclusion of our Warriors All-Stars adventure. Or, well, the first conclusion, anyway; this is a game with multiple endings, and a variety of paths through its overall narrative. The ending we achieve today is not the “true” ending, but it forms a suitable conclusion to the narrative path we’ve been … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Finale? – Warriors All-Stars #18 Warriors Wednesday: A Light Worth Protecting - Now we’re making good progress through the plot, it’s clear we’re starting to move towards one of the various conclusions to Warriors All-Stars. For those unfamiliar, Warriors All-Stars features numerous endings based on the choices you make throughout the game. These aren’t visual novel-style binary choices, however; they mostly relate to which characters you recruit and which … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: A Light Worth Protecting Warriors Wednesday: Beautiful Flowers – Warriors All-Stars #16 - Today in the world of Warriors All-Stars, it’s a day of gradually conquering the map and inching towards a new Dramatic Battle. For the uninitiated, a core mechanic in Warriors All-Stars is your area of control over the overall map. This is most broadly affected by the major battles you complete, such as story battles and … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Beautiful Flowers – Warriors All-Stars #16 Warriors Wednesday: Wicked Lil’ Servant – Warriors All-Stars #15 - Drama and intrigue in today’s episode of Warriors All-Stars as Kasumi and Arnice attempt to save Setsuna from the trap he’s fallen into. We also run into Marie Rose, subject of last week’s Waifu Wednesday, and discover that she’s a more powerful weapon than anyone could have possibly imagined… and she doesn’t even need to … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Wicked Lil’ Servant – Warriors All-Stars #15 
Waifu Wednesday: Honoka - It’s another Dead or Alive girl this week — and, like her friend Marie Rose, she’s a relatively recent addition to the overall cast, having first shown up in Dead or Alive 5: Last Round. And also like Marie Rose, she’s proven to be a popular character since her first appearance, often appearing in collaborative, … Continue reading Waifu Wednesday: Honoka 
Waifu Wednesday: Marie Rose - First appearing in 2013 as part of Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate’s arcade release, Marie Rose has gone on to be an incredibly popular part of Team Ninja and Koei Tecmo’s long-running series of fighters. Marie Rose was presumably introduced in order to attract people to the arcade version of the game — the first … Continue reading Waifu Wednesday: Marie Rose Warriors Wednesday: The Truth Hurts – Warriors All-Stars #14 - In today’s episode of Warriors All-Stars, we start to get a hint of what Setsuna’s up to — and why the war among the furry siblings kicked off in the first place. Setsuna hasn’t been entirely forthcoming with Arnice, Kasumi and his other allies, however… and as such they’re finding it somewhat difficult to trust … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: The Truth Hurts – Warriors All-Stars #14 Warriors Wednesday: The Ultimate Evil – Warriors All-Stars #13 - In today’s episode of Warriors All-Stars, several incarnations of “evil” struggle over the definition of that very concept. Specifically, Darius, Laegrinna, Nobunyaga Oda and Arnice decide to investigate an offer of “the ultimate evil”… but it turns out that each of them are expecting something rather different from this supposed prize, and of course there’s … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: The Ultimate Evil – Warriors All-Stars #13 Warriors Wednesday: Let’s Meow Meow – Warriors All-Stars #12 - In our twelfth week of fighting for this strange other world, I figure out some things about Warriors All-Stars that might help us make faster progress! So today is all about cleaning up some of the major objectives we’ve got left on the area of the map we have unlocked. Specifically, we’re going to tackle … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Let’s Meow Meow – Warriors All-Stars #12 
Waifu Wednesday: Arnice - With Arnice back in the spotlight in our Warriors All-Stars playthrough, it’s only fair that we give her a bit of love and appreciation for Waifu Wednesday, isn’t it? Arnice is, if you’re unfamiliar, the protagonist of the excellent Nights of Azure, which was the subject of a Cover Game feature here on MoeGamer back in 2017. … Continue reading Waifu Wednesday: Arnice Warriors Wednesday: Dramatic Battle – Warriors All-Stars #11 - One of the interesting things about Warriors All-Stars is that its structure changes and varies according to the battles you participate in and the characters you unlock. Today we investigate a “Dramatic Battle”, which is a story-based battle with some specific unlock requirements — in this case, the presence of several particular characters in the … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Dramatic Battle – Warriors All-Stars #11 Warriors Wednesday: Hungry Hungry Horo – Warriors All-Stars #10 - Darius is hungry, and the only cure for that is, of course, the cooking of a local village that has recently been raided by bandits. Naturally, they want their food retrieving first, so the Warriors gladly agree to help out, secure in the knowledge that doing so will allow them to add another thousand or … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Hungry Hungry Horo – Warriors All-Stars #10 Warriors Wednesday: Barking Up the Wrong Tree – Warriors All-Stars #9 - Oh dear, Darius. You don’t know about Arnice, do you? That would explain why you’re so relentlessly pursuing her, but I can assure you, you are most definitely… you know. Yes, this time around we encounter Darius from Haruka: Beyond the Stream of Time, a representative of the Demon Clan and an altogether mysterious individual. While … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Barking Up the Wrong Tree – Warriors All-Stars #9 Warriors Wednesday: Oi’m William, So I Am – Warriors All-Stars #8 - One of my favourite things about Warriors All-Stars is, to be honest, its main selling point: the fact it brings together characters from disparate franchises to fight alongside one another. So far, our recruits have pretty much exclusively been cute girls with varying degrees of terrifyingness about them, but today we bring on a big … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Oi’m William, So I Am – Warriors All-Stars #8 Warriors Wednesday: Princess of Traps – Warriors All-Stars #7 - I’m clearly going to have to investigate the Deception series at some point. I mean, I was planning on doing so anyway, but this game is just reminding me of quite how behind I am! In today’s missions, Rio and company spend a bit of time clearing out some smaller skirmishes before taking aim for … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Princess of Traps – Warriors All-Stars #7 Warriors Wednesday: The Mysterious Book – Warriors All-Stars #6 - Rio’s back in the leading role today as we take on a series of new challenges, culminating in the recruitment of Plachta from Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book. Today’s missions provide a good example of how Warriors All-Stars’ quick, snappy pace and structure give it a markedly different feel from Warriors Orochi. Rather than long, … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: The Mysterious Book – Warriors All-Stars #6 
Waifu Wednesday: Rio Rollins Tachibana - With Rio stepping into the spotlight for today’s episode of Warriors Wednesday, it’s only fitting that we take a look at where she came from and why she’s included in the Warriors All-Stars cast. She’s not an especially well known character here in the West, since most of her prior appearances have been confined to … Continue reading Waifu Wednesday: Rio Rollins Tachibana Warriors Wednesday: Her Name is Rio – Warriors All-Stars #5 - Arnice takes a back seat this time around as Rio decides to lead the party into battle. We do our best to fulfil some of Kasumi’s unreasonable demands before moving on to face Laegrinna, star of Deception IV: Blood Ties. She does not want to go down without a rather sneaky fight, but surely the invincible … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Her Name is Rio – Warriors All-Stars #5 Warriors Wednesday: Who’s That Girl – Warriors All-Stars #4 - You know sometimes how you see someone and you know that you know them, but you just can’t remember their name? Yeah, that. How could I forget dear old Honoka, though? She’s become quite a high-profile mascot for the Dead or Alive series in various crossover collaborations — besides Warriors All-Stars she also had a guest appearance in Senran Kagura … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Who’s That Girl – Warriors All-Stars #4 Warriors Wednesday: Kasumi’s Arrival – Warriors All-Stars #3 - Now we’re past those pesky introductory missions, it’s time to get down to the real Warriors All-Stars. This game doesn’t mess around either; it immediately provides you with a huge variety of things to do, including time-limited events, battles where you can recruit new playable characters to your cause, and story-critical Key Battles. The whole … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Kasumi’s Arrival – Warriors All-Stars #3 Warriors Wednesday: Furry Politics – Warriors All-Stars #2 - Having established that we are well and truly in isekai territory, Arnice, Christophorus and Rio appear to have a lot of work ahead of them. For now, it seems, their best course of action is to go along with the furry inhabitants of this other world. These strange individuals appear to not only be trying … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Furry Politics – Warriors All-Stars #2 Warriors Wednesday: Starting Life in a New World – Warriors All-Stars #1 - With Warriors Orochi finally down for the count, it’s time to start a new game! Warriors All-Stars came out in 2017 and was originally intended as another Warriors Orochi game, but subsequently grew into its own standalone project that de-emphasised the Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors characters in favour of… well, an all-star line-up drawn from a variety of different Koei Tecmo … Continue reading Warriors Wednesday: Starting Life in a New World – Warriors All-Stars #1 Gallery
