I always forget that Guan Suo and Bao Sanniang are in DW. The rest are fine. Guan Ping is easy to remember since he's what introduced the huge as fuck swords into the franchise.

So we have at least 5 left. Zhou Cang is that even his name? I already forgot looks like shit, and Cheng Pu already looks like one of the coolest Dynasty Warriors™ ever made.
>Brand-new female characters are also slated to be coming. It is assumed that there could be 2 of them. >Characters with short lifespans like Dian Wei & Sun Jian will indeed also have short story modes.
It is what it is.
Levi Richardson
>the player can head straight away to fight Dong Zhuo in Luoyang, but unless you cleared the Hulao Gate mission beforehand, Lu Bu might end up appearing at Luoyang too, hence the difference in mission difficulty.
Nice the optional missions are like DW4 optional missions.
Andrew Bell
Zhou Cang Ma Su Cheng Pu Lu Kang Cao Jie Sima Yan Some late characters preferably a girl
Elijah Nelson
Yang Hu would be likely if Lu Kang was added, since you might as well add their little story.
Brody Gray
WILL OTHERS GET ANY LOVE Y/N
William Clark
this man should have had control of Liang province
Evan Green
>On 31 March 2017, Producer Suzuki held a poll on Twitter asking if the fans prefer Liu Bei with mustache or not. The poll ended with the mustache winning 67% of the votes.
One less reason to hate him.
Kevin Richardson
So hopeful the series will finally go to the fall of Wu, or was it confirmed somewhere?
Mason Thomas
>(embed) Fucker you tricked me!
Kayden Murphy
I kind of don't want them to bring back the mustache because I've started to enjoy hating everything about him.
Han Sui would be pretty cool. I'd like to see the post-crippled version be playable.
Owen Nguyen
Give him a stump bludgeon.
Gavin Martin
Naw just pulling shit outta my ass
David Kelly
Calling it. Next character revealed will be Wen Pin or Man Chong. Both are excellent Wei designs they nailed with the Blast card artworks.
Bentley Johnson
Worthwhile Characters Please Add Them List:
Wei: Wen Ping Cao Zhen Cheng Yu Zhang Xiu Dian Man Xu Yi
Shu:
Wu:
Other: Hua Xiong
Tyler Price
At least 8 new characters, because we're supposed to have more than 90 playable characters, so at the very least 91 from the current 83.
We already know 2, and that there will be at least 1 girl.
Luke Brown
The impression I get is that they're making all the possible battles and locations for the story first, then creating each character's storyline by just selecting all the appropriate battles for them. Only exceptions would be much more niche/smaller battles like Guan Yu's Escape. That seems like the easiest way to deal with having such a huge roster.
Aaron Cooper
I would love both Ma Su and Wang Ping for the Jieting battle.
Ma Su was known for having created the seven capture plan for Meng Huo though also right?
Jeremiah Torres
I would agree with you but the DW8 Shu story was too painful for me to go through whenever Liu Bei was on screen so I'd rather not want to hate a third of the game by default.
Nicholas Reed
Fuck I was eating chips and I accidentally posted
Worthwhile Characters Please Add Them List:
Wei: Wen Ping Cao Zhen Cheng Yu Zhang Xiu Dian Man Xu Yi Man Chong Cao Jie
Shu: Ma Su Liao Hua Ma Yunlu Zhao Yun's son or whatever, sure
Wu: Zhang Zhao (BUILD WALL) Zhuge Jin Idk that much about Wu
Jin: Sima Gan
Other: Hua Xiong Wen Chou Yan Liang Yuan Shu Gongsun Zan
Jeremiah Sanchez
It's gonna be strange if they add Zhuge Jin because I always made him into a loli in the Empires games.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised that based Zhao Zi Long has his own series.
Jeremiah Collins
Lady Wu to complete the Sun family and fill the awkward gap after Sun Jian's death.
Gabriel Robinson
It wouldn't be too far-fetched for Koei to make him a loli.
Kevin Butler
>Cheng Yu
Yes pls
Eli Cruz
>mfw your children will never play as Cheng Yu
Oliver Butler
This character would actually regain health upon successful standing over bodies left behind
Angel Peterson
Wu: Lu Kang Yang Hu Jiang Qin Pan Zhang Xu Sheng
From girls, Xu Shi and Sun Luban would be great additions.
Zachary Perry
yeah I saw it too, super wanking
Grayson Green
Cheng Pu is confirmed for DW9. (pic related)
Angel Scott
...
John Nguyen
this looks like it should have been in Nioh
Cameron Thompson
>defeated officer quotes get cut off mid-sentence
I recognize Jiang Qin, Pan Zhang, and Xu Sheng, but I'm not that familiar with the late-game history You'd have to include Sun Yi for Xu Shi though And Lady Wu definitely
Definitely a hoax, this picture has been floating around since DW7
Easton Russell
I'm going through DW withdrawals.
HELP
Jaxson Martinez
I'm more than fine if Koei starts using Ni-Oh designs in musou.
Landon Ortiz
>You'd have to include Sun Yi for Xu Shi though Maybe, you could also introduce her already as a widow. Just like that, Sun Luban would work best if she was introduced together with Sun Luyu.
Camden Adams
Wow never mind, he was a fucking terrible person Liu Dai dai-ed because of him and he cannibalized his hometown
What a poor role model for future dadadus to play as, surely there are more qualified candidates for Koei's attention
Noah Allen
True, kind of like Wang Yi's case where she just popped out of nowhere
Late-game Wu is actually p interesting tbqh sworn brother
Jack Cruz
Being a terrible person is almost a requirement for being famous in the TK period. The other way is to be killed by someone. Eating people isn't even all that unusual.
Logan Rogers
Ancient Chinese Martian Conspiracies
Carson Kelly
If the entirety of 9XL isn't about this I'm not going to play another KT game ever again.
Angel Smith
Ancient Chinese Shack Conspiracies
Samuel Mitchell
Ancient Shack Lingqi Rape
Alexander Kelly
Cheng Yu wasn't that terrible
His army needed to eat
also Liu Dai was an awful person himself too
Oliver Murphy
Was there some legend about Zhao Yun being a masked vigilante in his youth? Maybe that explains the whole kacho kamen thing Zhao Yun does in Koihime Musou
Joseph Diaz
They are clearly different people, though.
Elijah Nelson
So what happened with the "don't expect too many ads" they said way back? 7 sounds like a lot
Andrew Reed
I don't remember them saying that. Maybe that was just a bad dream user.
Juan Howard
Can't have too many new people
Jonathan Gomez
She can hide her face with a mask, but she can't hide her slut stench.
It's probably a lot easier with a lot of clones.
Owen Carter
Most of the time, yeah. But Zhuge Jin and the Lu Su are famous because they are some of the nicest guys around the period, especially lu Su who's basically a saint
Camden Campbell
Don't talk about my wife like that, m8.
Wyatt Martin
7 is still less than what we got for DW8 so technically they didn't lie.
Gotta save the other officers for XTREME LEGENDS :^)
Jordan Bell
>It's probably a lot easier with a lot of clones. Citation needed
Brody Bennett
>Hey user, Where are you running off to? I've got the wine!
Oliver Martin
I just need the next screenshot over to prove it.
Ian Martin
m8, fucking cheng pu is using Zhang Fei's weapon it's gonna be DW7 all over again, hope you like your generic spears and daos
Jason Johnson
Blast Cheng Pu also has a white ponytail, but his face shape is different.
I think that they may generally base their new additions on the existing Blast ones.
Jeremiah Diaz
OOPS, forgot the important part.
Noah Moore
This one was kind of nice, though.
Yeah, that's not bad since some of the Blast designs are kind of nice. Zhao Cang looked like a younger version of his Blast design, too.
Dominic Parker
Why the fuck would they choose a double sided pike of all weapons to clone instead of something actually generic like, as you said, spears and swords? On top of that, the other new add so far has a completely unique moveset too.
It's most likely just because they're giving Zhang Fei his normal pike back or something brand new.
Justin Parker
Guan Yu still has his Crescent Blade, Zhou Yun still has his "Dragon Spear", and Xiahou Dun still has his Podao I mean they could have just given them generic spears and daos and shit but instead they kept their old EX weapons, so i'm p sure most if not all of the previous movesets are gonna be safe
Dylan Cox
You were literally confirmed to be wrong, stop fucking overreacting. Everyone gets their personal best weapon, Zhang Fei will most likely use the serpent spear.
Levi Walker
>Koei says the designs for DW9 are going to be more realistic >they make THIS Cheng Pu's design
What we're they thinking?
Julian Mitchell
The base of the spear looks a bit different, so they probably also touch up the weapons a bit and not just completely copy + paste everything. Zhang Fei's weapon will most likely go back to the normal serpent pike instead of double serpent pike.
Christopher Rivera
Forgot pic
Camden Nelson
Shu is the moralfag kingdom for children
Wei is the edgefag kingdom for teenagers
Wu is the literal fag kingdom for fujoshi
Oliver Jackson
What "game" is this?
Carter Howard
>tfw I usually like moralfags, but find Liu Bei, Jewgay, and Guan Yu insufferable
Zhao Yun is cool, though.
Samuel Johnson
>Wu is the literal fag kingdom for fujoshi
this is slanderous
Logan Hernandez
I want Zhuge Dan to hit me with his baton while he yells at me for being an imbecile. I also want to be tied up while he tells me what a glorious family he descends from. :)

Step up user.
Koihime Musou
Kayden Moore
what keeps you playing musou?
Evan Jenkins
Does he bark when he yells?
Sebastian Ortiz
Lack of career advancement and suicidal thoughts.
haha just kidding, I don't have a job to advance in in the first place
Justin Campbell
Stockholm Syndrome, I've been wasting so much of my life playing musou games, I can't bring myself to quit now.
Wyatt Richardson
Simple, fun, and I like the setting.
Grayson Harris
Relaxation of killing thousands of peons.
Isaiah Hall
Spirit of Sanada is good
The strong desire to bury my face in the prickly armpits of Kai and inhale her scent
David Walker
I eI enjoy murdering millions of soldiers who will never return home and live peaceful lives due to being slaughtered by psychotic generals.
Luke Parker
What version of DW8 is this?
Chase Jones
Dynasty Warriors 8: Last Round
Jack Flores
How's the story compared to 4?
Liam Green
It's simple, relaxing and has Lianshi
Tyler Ward
Seems like a mix of Blast and the old concept from the DW4 fanbook.
Parker Murphy
B-b-but she's a fucking BEAR!
Kevin Hill
Any more of these?
Christopher Morgan
It tells a more coheriant story so far. Starting with Masayuki and the first battle from the Takeda story in SW4.
Hudson Nguyen
How's the non-story content? If there is any that is
Joseph Edwards
Xingcai's ass
Juan Gonzalez
What would you do if Lianshi's Lianshis were presented in a box to you on your birthday?
