    Did I just see a real Dynasty Warriors review who doesn't say it's just a re-skin of a previous game?
    Did I just see a Dynasty Warriors game taken seriously?
    Seriously, not many people give the new DW games the proper critical eye, just because the games look similar.

    It's fairly affordable these days, and I've been itching for an adventurous hack and slash... looks promising. It only costs half as much as Dragon Quest Heroes and I prefer the darker visuals.

    @Balthazzarr Před 7 lety +3

    I'm confused about one major thing. There are a ton of characters, which I like, but when do I actually use them? You said that I pick a storyline and play through it with a specific character, which is fine, but when do I get to use all of the other characters? Is it only in other modes, or can I use any characters in the story once I complete it once or what exactly?

    • @snapbackwill
      @snapbackwill  Před 7 lety +9

      Hi, thanks for your comment, good question! So Dynasty Warriors 8 is a bit different to the other Dynasty Warriors games, for example in DW4 you'd pick Zhao Yun and play through his personal campaign, but in DW8 you pick a kingdom, for example Shu, and then play each mission with a selection of the warriors that relate to the battle. For example in The Yellow Turban Rebellion, you'd get the option to play as Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Liu Bei and then in Hu Lao Gate you'd get Guan Yu, Zhao Yun and Xing Cai, and then in Chi Bi, you'd get Zhuge Liang, Ma Chao etc. All of the characters level up at the same time and can share items, skills and weapons but Dynasty Warriors 8 gives you the chance to play through one, much longer story rather than doing the same battles over and over with a different character everytime. All of the characters in the version I looked at can be selected from the start in Free Mode, Challenge Mode and Cross Platform play. I hope this helps, it really confused me too when I first started playing, but you get the chance to mess around with new characters and play the story out in different ways without being locked to one character or ever being penalised.

    It’s crap!
    I miss DW 2 & 3 because they were so hard to play, every single soldier had strength, you had to fight them, it wasn’t like you run to 50 soldiers and press square and you kill them all, that was what I missed from older DWs.
    In DW 2&3 you start so low in the campaign that you always looking to your body guards as your best mates.
    I remember playing DW 2 I always loved the fact that I’m a commander of my own army (army of 6 or 8) and it was a lot of fun.
    All DW games from 5, 6, 7, 8 ,9 are crap to be honest . 4 was ok but nothing intressting.

    • @klassicjammer7322
      @klassicjammer7322 Před 5 lety +1

      Social Experiment same. If you never played 2 or 3 then you should. 4 was the last really good one. 5 empires was fun but the beginning of the end.
      3 was my favorite with the extreme legends additions although it’s as dated as 4.
      Common foot soldiers are actually competent, dangerous, and take more than 3 hits to kill, sometimes takes a LOT more hits to kill especially depending on their rank.
      Can’t tell you how long I played that game

      @JohnCortelli Před 6 lety +6

      I would definitely recommend this game as a starting point :) Especially since each DW game tells the same story with a bit more exposition added to each one. In past games, there is an awesome character with an eyepatch (Xiahou Dun) and in this game, it goes through so much detail that at the beginning he has both eyes and you get to play the mission where he LOSES the eye lol.
