In all honesty, it looks and plays just like a Dynasty Warriors/Samurai Warriors/Warriors Orchi game. That I do not mind, what I do mind, however, is the limited character selection and limited character representation for being a game which supposedly focuses on bring in characters from the entirety of Zelda. It seems to focus mainly on bring in characters and styles from just three of the games (Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword, and Ocarina of Time). Do not get me wrong, these games are some of the best to offer, but would it have killed them to put more representation like perhaps including villains like Vaati or Majora? Heck, it would have even been cool to include Ralph from Oracle of Ages. However, there is likely a reason for the limitations on characters and games used within Hyrule Warriors.

I can definitely agree with you there, adding Vaati would've been kick-a**, but I'm sure that the game developers couldn't just add characters willy-nilly into the games. I'm sure they tried to take consideration of recent and characters that newer fans would actually know. They could've also been trying to draw in a larger fan-base with the more recent, yet popular, characters. I myself would have absolutely loved to see some characters from Link to the Past, such as Agahnim (pre-beast), or Veran from Oracle of Ages. Alas, Nintendo has decided it is not to be so. Though I don't quite understand why Agitha beats out any of the older characters for character choice.

Yeah, I can certainly agree that the character choice is odd. I am still rather confused about what purpose at all Agitha has as a playable character. So many other, more interesting, better loved characters could have easily replaced her.
I think one of the reasons that many of the other games have not really been included is due to the discrepancy between different art styles. While I deeply love Wind Waker, I think it was the right decision not to include it in Hyrule Warriors, as I think the jump between the different art styles might just have messed up the characters and made people angry. That said, this only refers to cat eye Link and is merely my opinion. Then again, I really don't see why characters from games like Majoras Mask and earlier titles couldn't be included.
Still, I digress.

Still, I digress. As much as I loved Agitha, she wasn't very important, so I can agree with you there! I mean if they wanted to add a BA character from TP, they could've gone with Telma at least. But the art styles conflict is a good point, and is probably why they didn't add characters from titles like Wind Waker! Majora's Mask or Ocarina of Time should have been included at least, and I haven't really seen any cameos from either series in the game :/ I would have even taken Tingle if it meant that the games would get a mention!
