Kao Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 So XL brings a lot of new characters to each game, and with this large amount of characters comes issues with balancing. You know what that means: Top 5 worst stages go. Nanman DW3/4 does not count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soledai Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Off the top of my head, I can easily say they came from DW6 and 8 He Fei Castle DW6 He Fei Castle DW8 Wuzhang Plains DW6 Wuzhang Plains DW8 Battle of Nanjun DW8 There are so many more, especially from those, but I'll just list what comes to mind first.

HF Makalov Fanboy Kai Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 So XL brings a lot of new characters to each game, and with this large amount of characters comes issues with balancing. You know what that means: Top 5 worst stages go. Nanman DW3/4 does not count. but Nanman of 3/4 is clearly one of the worst maps ever. anyways, i'd have to say it involves any stage with a secret objective that there's no way you'd figure it out with a guide, like the battle vs the magical old man in DW8 on Wu's side, to get to the hypothetical route you had to go off the beaten path to a random ass room and destroy a pot., who would even go there or do that without knowing first hand? also i'm putting WO2 Wu's final stage on here because the fire attack kills your frame rate, actually Chi Bi kills your frame rate most of the time period.

Jedi Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 I remember when I was younger disliking the DW4 battle Assault on Liu Biao Because the trap they lure Sun Jian into, I wasn't 100% sure the first few times how exactly to get him out, but its alot easier now lmao. My solution when I was younger was to just be Sun Jian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Masayoshi Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Worst battles I've ever played? Hmmm There's one where you have to play as Xu Zhu, Cao Ren and Guo Jia Not a lot of stages bother me, I don't remember them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soledai Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 (edited) Actually come to think of it, I didn't like the layout of quite a bit of DW8's stages, the aesthetic was nice, but traversing some of them, was not. That said, I'll do the reverse: 5 stages you liked? Have at it Fan Castle, DW7 after it flooded stands out clearly to me. (due in no small part to DW7XL) Yiling, DW6 when you're near the river and the sun shines off of it, nice. I know that game reused a lot of maps, so I think it was Yiling Hefei, DW8 Xiapi, DW8 Guan Yu's escape, DW5 (Had good music, and it was pretty much officers only) Edited January 24, 2016 by Soledai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) DW4 Wu Zhang Plains had such an awkward mechanic WO1 Shu second or third mission where you need to rescue Yue Ying. Its WAY over the difficulty spike, and is super tedious at times WO1 the stage where you recruit Keiji Maeda. Seriously all you do is push drums or some shit. Theres many other stages in WO that had special objectives to unlock a specific character, and none of them is as annoying as this shit DW4 battle vs Ma Chao when you want to unlock Shadow Harness - it had such an awkward timing that you need to do ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING just right Also yeah WU Finale with the Fire Attack in WO2 is so shit. Also the less mention about DW6, especially stages with TONS of swimming, the better Edited January 26, 2016 by JSND Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Masayoshi Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 one of the most frustrating battles was Race against the Dragon of Oshu in SB3, where you have to chase Masamune and Kojurou across the map, and if you're using Kanbei or Yoshitsugu, it's nigh impossible Also, Rescue of the Heavenly Emperor in WO3U. But that's more buggy than anything. Using Cai Wenji and Sima Yi in a stage where they can die easily is not okay. It's also the place where you get Mitsuhide's fifth weapon, so. And finally, the any battle in SW4, 4-II or Chronicles 3 where you can't let three officers die. That's just annoying as shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soledai Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) I hated getting rare weapons in SW4-II so much it made no sense, thus I didn't do it, and that's a first for me. I just used the dlc weapons for every character and called it a day. For some reason, I really don't like playing that game.

Mikethfc Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Least favourite stages are the battle of Mt. Jiangdong in WO3, and both 7-X and 8 of Shu in Warriors Orochi. Also most of the Jin campaign in DW8, never liked Jin. Anyway there's two empty spaces on the HW Legends character select, who's guessing what for DLC? Also I'm guessing Naotora Ii coming to DoA5 is probably too off topic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soledai Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I'd need to re-familiarize myself with LoZ before I could make some guesses, but hold on.. Also I'm guessing Naotora Ii coming to DoA5 is probably too off topic What? I've never heard of this, but it doesn't surprise me in hindsight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Masayoshi Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) WHY THE HELL IS NAOTORA COMING TO DEAD OR ALIVE WHAT If she is truly coming to Dead or Alive, I would buy a dead or alive game at that point Edited January 27, 2016 by Asuka Fujimoto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikethfc Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 But yeah, I always thought they'd use Yueying, Xingcai, Lianshi, a Wu princess, Caji, Yuanji, or Kuniochi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Masayoshi Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I'd believe it, Naotora is #9 favorite character overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Masayoshi Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I believe I saw a mole somewhere on her body. Yes, Naotora's ingame and design sprite has a mole on it. This is because her design is based off of a famous actress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Masayoshi Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Considering Naotora fights with her feet and not with an actual weapon.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soledai Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Technically true, but she does have blades on her boots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Masayoshi Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Let me rephrase Actual weapon meaning a weapon that can actually be used in actual life, where bladed boots I assume would be horribly painful to walk around in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted April 23, 2016 Author Share Posted April 23, 2016 (edited) So its been awhile since this thread has been active, I think I have something to spice it up a bit however. (Note this trailer is in Japanese) http://nichegamer.com/2016/04/21/debut-trailer-strategy-rpg/ Koei Tecmo has shared the debut trailer for their newly announced strategy RPG entry within the Dynasty Warriors series, Dynasty Warriors: Eiketsuden. Featured above, the roughly minute and a half trailer gives us a look at the new strategy RPG, which focuses on protagonist Zhao Yun (also from the Dynasty Warriors series). Dynasty Warriors: Eiketsuden is launching across PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PS Vita in Japan sometime this year. We have no idea if this will be going outside of Japan, the shift is kind of strange, but then again we did have the Dynasty Tactics series. Makes me wonder why they didn't just use that title and go with Dynasty Tactics 3? But then again I guess the name Dynasty Warriors or Shin Sangokumusō as its known in Japan. Makes more sales. So what do you think of a tactics based game? Although the trailer seems to indicate its fairly new in development... I think lol, but anyways. Yeah Dynasty Tactics was really great, and this has alot to live up, especially Dynasty Tactics 2. However, now I know why Eiketsuden is the name, doing some research, the Eiketsuden (Lit. Legend of a Brave Hero) series seems to be a running franchise of sorts. Starting with Sangokushi Eiketsuden, which focused on Liu Bei, and apparently there were alternate endings and such, theres other such games in the series as well, one that focused on Zhuge Liang, and a few that focused on the Japanese Warring States. Apparently the most ambitious title was Sangokushi Sōsōden, which focused on you being Cao Cao with multiple routes and stuff, and was around 60 chapters long. According to further research, these games play somewhat similar to Fire Emblem, but the exact similarities are unknown to me as of right now as I need to do more research into it, like videos and stuff. They seem to have been mostly games for the PC, Sega Saturn and Playstation, so when I can, I'll do some more digging on this series.

Soledai Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Ah yeah, I've been following this ever since it was announced back in early April. It's caught my interest to say the least. I think there were also rumors of Jin not being a part of this??? But I doubt that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soledai Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 (edited) Nah, there hasn't been any real info on it besides setting and the two new characters; that trailer is actually the only thing they've shown regarding it, screenshots notwithstanding. I'm thinking when we hear about it next, they're gonna talk about the mechanics and all that. Edited April 23, 2016 by Soledai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
