>weapons wielded by characters to be more realistic Hahahahah /eagg/ BTFO. You stupid fags, Suzuki said it himself, "realistic".
Alexander Murphy
there we go, it was muh realism all along
*jumps off a mountain and takes no damage*
Brody Morgan
>REAL TECHNIQUES FROM CHINESE MARTIAL ARTS
Carter Lopez
*Air dashes behind you* *Slams sword into the ground and conjures up ice cubes* Psst, nothing personnel kid
Adrian Flores
Cao Pi learned ice magic from Master Sub-Zero of the Lin Kuei clan, so obviously it's real techniques from chinese martial arts.
William Scott
>Guan Poo summon bloody Tornado >Liu Bei shoot Lightning out of his ars >Cao Pi release Ice beam >Realistic
Yo, you drunk, Susuki?
Hunter Smith
>remove Claws >keeps japanese sword really makes you think
Xavier Martin
So Yinping using a mace is realistic now?
Matthew Parker
>we've been able to present various things richly
Like what?
Liam Baker
clones
Asher Garcia
Shooting Spear.
Noah Jenkins
Empty wastelands
Asher Johnson
Boobs
Nathan Cox
Eh. The only notable upgrades this year have been Xingcai's.
Nathan Russell
Eh, armpits then. ALso I dig that white hair parts
Leo Gomez
It's too late Chen Gong, the moment I read the date I instantly poured all my hopes in dreams into this one event.
>mfw they reveal all the clones were merely a joke and then show live gameplay footage of sun ce with tonfas
Wow October 21 is going to be amazing
Charles Morales
don't be a hopeful retard user
Levi White
Leave Liu Shan alone, he dindu nuffin.
Austin Mitchell
I have samurai warriors 4, 4-II and Empires. I wanna play them, I go in that order right? I haven't played any samurai warriors before. I'm slightly autistic and was going to skip 4 because the text box in the middle of the screen makes me want to kill myself but someone said it tells the story better and that II focuses on the new characters so I should at least play the story mode of the original.
Vague knowledge of the period like Tokugawa wins and that my lad Oda is betrayed and killed and that's pretty much it.
Carson Green
Pretty much.
Dominic Garcia
If it were me, I'd play 4 > Empires > 4-II just to break things up a bit, but as long as you play 4 first you're fine.
Juan Flores
Empires games are basically 'make-your-own-story', so you can play that whenever, though considering you're new you should play 4 first.
Lincoln Smith
I also know they released yet ANOTHER game in the 4 series with the Sanada or something but honestly, I know I am going to get sick and tired of the movesets after 4 FUCKING GAMES and I don't have money to buy it anyway.
Sorry for shouting but it's still hard to believe.
Jayden Stewart
that's not even all of them, there's also Chronicles
Logan Carter
Oh yeah, fucking hell.
Kinda related, on the subject of absolutely retarded decisions, I'm not sure about this one but I think the new crossover does not have a free mode.
If I'm right... What the actual fuck, I don't even...
Elijah Gutierrez
I don't have the game but it sounds similar to WO3, which you could just use whoever you want in Story Mode stages so Free Mode is useless.
Angel Evans
If you mean All Stars, yep it doesn't.
Kevin Cooper
You can't use whoever you want in Story Mode and everytime you end the Story you need to restart and recruit characters AGAIN
Lucas Morales
That sounds retarded then.
That game doesn't have splitscreen either, right?
Ian Martinez
I think I read you cannot replay stages and you must start a new game to play other characters like in a new game+ mode or something.
I might be making shit up but in case I'm not, jesus christ...
In a crossover game. Where people want to play whoever the fuck they want anytime they want and generally fuck around. I mean it would still be pretty bad in a regular game but this is just fucking absurd.
I haven't followed the news on dw9 btw but based on this, I have kinda lost hope.
Joseph Sullivan
Yep but same goes for Berserk and the Sanada game
Adam Sullivan
>I haven't followed the news on dw9 btw but based on this, I have kinda lost hope.
Two separate games, A Dou.
Levi Price
>a billion samurai warriors 4 reskins >crossover with no free mode >dw9 will be open world
Hopes deleted already. I think we are entering yet another dark age. DW6 flashbacks.
James Roberts
Nothing more than superficial worries and nonsensical paranoia.
Landon Cook
but why, those aren't opahn warudo
Christian Morgan
Apparently Blue Reflection on PC is a really shit port, I thought KT stopped doing that? How are the recent musou stuff on PC?
Jaxson Morris
Me too, I want to know how spirit of sanada and all stars is on pc.
Jaxon Davis
Shut up sleeping dragon, your wife is yellow and ugly as shit.
Samuel Green
...
Jose Ross
Good because I loved DW6
Jason Smith
>see people posting neat screenshots >not autistic enough to hunt on the net for a copy of a chink tv show or watch it
Oh well.
Isaac Reed
Theres a youtube channel with 1080p uploads of it
Nicholas Taylor
You know it is true.
Noah Thomas
What stupid fuck made a new thread? There's nothing to talk about, just let this place die.
Xavier Allen
no
Aaron Green
So Zhong Hui flying swords are out. It better not be shooting spears as his replacement.
Colton Campbell
We could talk about your impending suicide instead
Dylan Morales
oh shit I didn't even realise the complication from that statement
Wyatt Edwards
So what kind of weapon would fit a egotistical, pompous douchebag like Zhong Hui?
Isn't that Liu Shan's too? So Zhong Hui is using the same weapon as a retard then.
Matthew Diaz
Liu Shan hasn't been announced yet, but yes he has used it.
>So Zhong Hui is using the same weapon as a retard then.
Same with Pang De.
Luke Watson
Sima Shi isn't a retard fuck you
Grayson Davis
>鍾會,克蜀,於成都土中得一刀,文曰「太一」。會死,入帳下王伯升,伯升後渡江,刀遂飛入水。
>Zhong Hui conquered Shu, and from the lands of Chengdu found a sword, with the writing “Grand One.” [Zhong] Hui died, and it went to his subordinate Wang Bosheng. Bosheng later was crossing a river, and the sword unexpectedly flew into the water.
Jayden Campbell
>Sima Shi isn't a retard fuck you Nigga I said Liu Shan.
Jonathan Cruz
sorry I jumped the gun
Kayden Gutierrez
Since the flying swords are out, the only weapon fit for the Chosen One is Lu Bu's halberd.
Hudson Rivera
In DW9E, you'll be able to sit by the pond behind your humble, country-side home and fish with your son. You'll bestow upon him the wisdom that you've amassed through your twenty years of service to your lord. Afterwords, you could visit your late-wife's grave, who succumbed to disease two years earlier.
And then you defend your kingdom against and army of ten Sephiroths and a bunch of rainbow-haired anime OCs.
Justin Stewart
Thank god you can disable custom characters.
Adam Powell
They'll remove that function in 9E.
Samuel Phillips
Yours or others?
Joshua Cooper
>rainbow-haired anime OCs. >not a bunch of hooded edgelord OCs wielding Xu Shu's sword and dagge- Xun You's whip sword
Asher Howard
>hooded edgelord OCs >not a bunch of big breasted, scantily clad waifus
Jaxon Cooper
...
Zachary Long
Defending against the saber kingdom is a noble cause.
Jace Green
>>hooded edgelord OCs >>not a bunch of big breasted, scantily clad waifus >>not both of them at the same time.
Luis Campbell
No they'll just remove CAW entirely.
Daniel Ross
They better not. CAW is the best thing they have.
Landon Evans
Whatever weapon Pang Tong or Zhang Jiao gets. They'll share it.
Zhuge Liang/Sima Yi and maybe the dog are set for the war fan.
Charles Richardson
I also want to play one of those empire games but I can't. I have a shit PC and no console.
Jacob Cruz
I don't care if the main game turns out shit, if I don't get the open world Destiny Mode in 9E I've always dreamed of I'll riot.
Connor Evans
They'll keep the CAWs and expand upon the romance mechanics by adding in a "snuggle" function with your significant other.
Jaxon Gutierrez
Shooting Spears.
Jacob King
I love her more than /eagg/ loves Lu Lingqi and Wang Yuanji combined. Maybe if she was real I wouldn't be so crippling depressed.
Jaxon Howard
Guan Yinping best looking female redesign Lu Xun best looking male redesign Man Chong best newcomer design
Zachary Gonzalez
Damn he is one cool dude
Evan Adams
Nah pham
>yinping best female redesign >sun jian best male redesign >cheng pu best newcomer design
Ryder Robinson
Close but I'd say Sun Quan improved the most.
Also Man Chong's outfit sticks out like a sore thumb.
Jace Adams
I was THIS close to putting Sun Quan instead, actually.
Christopher Kelly
Reddit is at the acceptance phase.
Parker Cox
Looks more like denial to me.
Camden Long
You can internally accept it as a necessary evil which may or may not even be true, but you should never publicly announce you're fine with it or that you don't think it's that bad. There's no positive outcome here and all it does is signal to KT that they don't have to try as hard.
Logan Smith
Nah, it's definitely acceptance. We already passed the denial line a long time ago back at the very first sign of clones like Xiahou Yuan getting twin rods, hit anger at Zhang He, bargaining and depression on the road to and through TGS, and now acceptance.
Charles Torres
No, acceptance would be saying, "Clones suck but I guess we have to deal with it," or maybe even, "Clones suck but the rest of the game looks cool." Saying, "I do not mind clones," and, "I don't think it will be that bad," is denial, they're lying to themselves.
Luis Moore
Denial is outright saying that it's not happening. Like if they claimed that clones are straight up not a thing despite it already being confirmed.
At best you could call it bargaining, e.g. 'clones are okay because we're getting X Y and Z to make up for it', but it's definitely not denial.
Nathan Edwards
Are they right /eagg/? Do WE all want Hua Xiong?
Andrew Hernandez
No I don't. Why would I want a faggot that got killed by Sun Jian's unit?
Adam Gomez
Post the character you're going to play through first
Xavier Campbell
DW3, DW5, DW6, DW7
>Lord please wait! Now is not the time to attack Wu! We must join with them, to defeat Cow Cow!
>Defeat Wei and Wu will have no other choice other than to surrender. Please reconsider...
DW8
>For vengeance! xD xD
What went wrong?
Jace Bennett
DW8 is what happens when you try to make a game without clones. Every other aspect of the game becomes garbage.
Josiah Lewis
Always start off with my main man
Jose Reyes
No user, it's denial. Denial as a stage of grief isn't just outright saying a thing doesn't exist, it's denying your feelings about the thing. Most people going through the denial stage are aware of the reality, but the phase where they feel numb to it, where it hasn't properly 'hit them', that's denial. It's also worth noting that you can accept something whilst still not being happy about it.
It's like that time you said, "My wife sleeps with other dudes but I'm perfectly happy with that," whilst you're acknowledging the reality you're still in denial with how you feel about it, you see?
Oliver White
It's too late for that, user. Best thing you can do is refuse purchase if you're so disgruntled. If people are going to pay full price for XL and Empires, then they shouldn't really complain of KT being lazy.
Have fun unlocking her first.
Asher Cooper
So basically, you're saying: >Good gameplay, shit story >Clone gameplay, good story
Am I right?
Elijah Hall
Will they ever have a scene in which Liu Bei throws Liu Shan to the ground and proceeds to passionately hold Zhao Yun just like how the 2010 series adapted it from the novel?
