Magical CC Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 (edited) The new addition of DW9 is kinda disapponting actually. Cao Xiu is not even relevant in the whole story or history. If you want to add a commander of Tiger Leopard Cavalry then Cao Chun is a much much better choice. Some of the more prominent characters who havent debut in DW yet: Wei: _Cao Zhi: slapped Cao Pi in the face in seven steps. _Cao Chang: scared Cao Pi to Cao Pee. _Cao Chun: better version of Cao Xiu _Cao Shuang _Cao Hong Shu: _Chen Dao: Shu version of Cao Chun _Liao Hua _Liu Feng: gonna have a lot of fun reaction with Zhuge and Liu Shan _Yan Yan: best friend with Huang Zhong _Li Yan: feud with Zhuge _Liu Bi wives where are they lol? Wu: _That little brother of Sun Ce and Sun Quan who got killed in a party _The guy above's hot wife _Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong _Sun Quan's game of throne wannabe daughter. __Zhuge Jin: the brother mom doesnt love Other: _A ton.

Some of the more prominent characters who havent debut in DW yet: What bothers me is that they refused to add more Jin era officers in the other kingdoms. Jin really needs more opponents other than Jiang Wei and his brigade of very minor characters who only live that long because they are so minor we don't even know their official date of death. And I don't get the logic behind not adding those characters. Not only would it make the lack of enemies less noticeable in the Jin story but the older generations don't need more people. The Cao Cao era already has so many characters that any new characters either gets drowned out by the huge cast or helps drown out other cast members while people in the later era don't have that problem. They can make the Jin stages more interesting and further the story of their own kingdoms without getting in anyone's way. Both 7 and 8 tried giving Zhuge Ke some relevancy despite insisting he remains a generic officer so why didn't they rush to turn him into an actual character this time around? He fits the Sima vs Zhuge theme and is pretty much the leader of a kingdom at the time. I'm tired of the best story with the best cast getting hindered by not having anyone to fight.

Acacia Sgt Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 (edited) I still stand on having less PC's for the Jin era works better, since for a game centered on the Three Kingdoms, it reflects the "end of an era" and "Shu and Wu aren't what they used to be" that was going on when Jin was eclipsing Wei. That said, I do agree that maybe Wu needs one or two more PC's. Because Ding Feng and living-way-after-her-death Lianshi is still too low. At least, when compared to Jin and Gen2 Shu...

The problem is, in every kingdom's later years the number of truly notable characters we have available can be counted on one hand. Zhuge Ke and Lu Kang's basically it for Wu, unless we want to reach deep and start adding no-name later Wu officers who basically were incompetent and then died. The sad irony is, out of all of Jiang Wei's officers, the only one who's actually entirely historical and date of death we don't know is Xiahou Ba, aka the one who's actually playable.

Yeah I don't get it either, especially since his former YT buddy/local fanfic character Zhou Cang was just added. Plus he'd flesh out Shu's later roster some more, given how long he lived.

I don't think that would be a new phenomenon. In Shu they've been adding a lot of no name people just to give Guan Yu more family members. Guan Suo and his stalker probably never even existed to begin with. Adding Lu Kand and Zhuge Ke would be a very good start, especially Zhuge Ke. The generic NPC emperor of Wu tends to be depicted as an irredeemable tyrant so they could expend that to show how much the Sun family has fallen. For Shu there's this officer....can't come up with his name but there was this solid but unremarkable general who was put in charge because everyone else was dead. ''Shu has no one left ''insert name here'' is leading there army'' one Wei soldier reportedly once said. They could do something interesting with a character like that, a capable old man who spend his childhood watching heroes and finds himself struggling to compare against them. Apparently that guy did once beat Sima Yi's ridiculous hat off his head and kept it at home as his trophy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I don't know how many Chinese can afford video games, but the country is what? 1.1-1.2 Billion people? And even if the upper and middle classes able to afford video games are only 25% of the population, that is still about every individual in the US regardless of age. That seems like a large group of customers to appeal to just west of Japan. Chinese shouldn't be too hard to find VAs for, given the geographic proximity. And DW is based on classic Chinese history and literature, so I see the games at face value attracting some interest among the Chinese.

Not sure, but maybe its partly to do with the entirely new English voice cast. They might have been more cost effective to the point of it being possible.

I kinda wondered what will Koei Tecmo will handle the enemies from Star Wars franchise in case if they start planning on developing Star Wars Warriors. I do like to see one of the Jedis or Rebels with Blasters similar to like the archers from Takumi, Niles, and Anna in Fire Emblem Warriors can beat a horde of Stormtroopers and Battle Droids like in the Warriors games instead of killing one by one like in the movies.

Jedi Posted February 7, 2018 Author Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) Some people got the game early heres a bit of footage We now know only 3 of the 90 characters will be unlocked at the start, so you have to start the game as Cao Cao, Sun Jian or Liu Bei, but it seems to be easy to unlock more people simply from meeting up with them etc. https://www.exophase.com/game/dynasty-warriors-9-psn/trophies/ List of PSN trophies. Thanks to @Tryhard for finding these.

Soledai Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) Watching this guy try to jump up the walls in the beginning when "Grappling Hook" was right there infuriated me for some reason No comment on the voice acting because... no. Also towards the end of the vid, "quality video game" Other than that, somehow managed to look even less impressive than I finally gave it credit for, and I'd still play it. Forging piques my interest, as does the horse raising that's supposed to be present as well. Edited February 7, 2018 by Soledai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forging piques my interest, as does the horse raising that's supposed to be present as well. I'd expect some difficulties to be had especially by Koei on transferring to an open world game. That said, I don't really think it's a DW6. I like some of the voice acting, like Dong Zhuo, but others are just not good. That said, I saw some people trying to pin it as worse than DW3. I don't know how recently they played DW3, because that was uniquely awful. This is just somewhat half-hearted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
