>His character art is misleading >WHY!!!!!!! >Like who the fuck at the office thought this was ok?!! >Koei, if you read this, at least put yhe scabbard in his hip as part of his outfit, like you did with the small shield on Huang Gai. Now Zhou tai look just like he just picked up a katana in the gutter and killing people with it >Legendary Badass turns into a generic warrior. This is sooooo sad to see Zhou Tai like this! >Great. They ruined my fav character! And wtf is this open world shit? Its totally empty and useless.
Justin Rivera
Xingcai was probably passed around among the Shu officers and Liu Shan was too dumb to notice.
Logan Thomas
>guy goes out of his way to just mash square and not use more than two of Zhou Tai's trigger or reactive attacks
Elijah Rivera
I wanna put my face in those pillows
Christian Harris
God the floating, talking heads for dialog will never not be creepy
Especially the portraits that look like they're staring into your soul
Asher Smith
I like this fag's moveset in strikeforce. Mainly cause he got some of the katana moves back. Like one of the triangle moves was like a quickdraw with like 40 hits or something ridiculous. I think everybody with the dao might've been able to do it in strikeforce tho, don't remember. Fun game regardless, would play another one if it was made.
Chase Walker
For reference someone did a vid showing side by side the trailers of people with the same weapon type:
Except they aren't doing the same moves so there's no true basis for comparison.
Henry Jones
Any future XL and Empires expansions should be DLC. Separate discs at this point seems redundant and cost more.
Nathaniel Baker
Empires should be a mode in the base game, the amount of "strategy" added to them is pathetic and it's not in-depth enough to warrant being a separate release altogether.
Dominic Taylor
Since you saw us, now you must die!
Adrian White
The base game doesn't come with most of the systems in place that make up the empires games, or the create a character either. It's also a good enough reason for people to skip the main games.
Colton Ramirez
This is your Liu Bei tonight
Jason Allen
Is DW9 going to be good? I mainly play as female characters.
Nolan Martinez
Did you like 7?
Isaac Howard
Yeah, but I preferred 8.
Hudson Cook
>Wu's titty monster Yuck. Posting best Wuwife.
Michael Clark
Well, then you'll like 9. But prefer 8. Maybe.
Adam Lee

Liam White
Sub-Zero aka Kuai Liang as DW9 DLC character when?
It's too long to put here, but Jiuyangda talked about the historical significance of the title of the 'Dog of the Zhuge' he has been saddled with; including the source text and the relation to the Three separate 'prime' Zhuge. The Dragon, Liang. The Tiger, Jin, The Dog, Dan.
Some fag called him a dog and now everyone else does too
Brayden Rogers
Happy new year /eagg/, DW9 is going to suck
Charles Brooks
Boo hoo go cry to your mommy
Jose Thompson
Zhou Tai is beloved by Dynasty Warriors fans. Can you blame them when he has been presented as this silent stylish samurai guardian for over a decade and they finally decide to fuck the design up again?
Lucas Myers
Can't be any worse than 8 tho right?
Adrian Martinez
>We will never get Zhuge Jin to complete this anecdote in game
Still feels bad.
But hey, at least we have Zhou Cang.
Elijah Ramirez
Well to be more accurate they're fans of his moveset. He's got the same look, demeanor and still has a great design, hell he still actually has the same weapon but they're quite pissed that the moveset itself is botched up so badly.
Ethan Diaz
Hahaha so true! Zhou Cang is great!
Jason Hernandez
>No Zhuge Jin, Ke, Jing or Zhan still. >Fucking Zhou Cang. This company exists. That's all I can say.
Jace Long
They're literally mad that you can't sheathe the sword like a fedoralord.
Ian Richardson
>ditches Shu on an instant to go and join Nobunaga in the Warriors Orochi games Nice son you got there, Guan Yu.
Elijah Wood
Wouldn’t you?
Noah Bennett
Were these people mad when Hotmaru lost the sheath on his back and got a cape?
Kevin Hughes
>Xingcai >Oda Nobunaga He has surprisingly great taste to be honest.
>No Wang Ping, Liao Hua, Ma Su, Jiang Wan >Oh but we got Bao Sanniang, Guan Suo and Zhou Cang
Even I'm feeling bad for Shu right now.
Blake James
So... what'cha wearing?
Nicholas Watson
Nothing at all
William Thomas
Because his design was shit and his combos werent as good as DW8.
Austin Perez
I wish Sun Quan got the whip in DW9, he's very cute with it! :3
Jaxson Powell
>No Fei Yi, Huo Yi, Ma Zhong, Luo Xian, Zhang Ni, Ma Liang, Liu Feng >Fucking.Zhou.Cang.
I just don't get KOEI's thought process here. Tons of great figures from Shu's history and we get Guan Yu's shit kids, his fictional shit kids fictional wife (or one of atleast) and now his fictional shit friend. This upsets my hoohoodilly.
Anthony Myers
His design's actually pretty good in 6 though, lack of katana aside. Certainly worth calling better than dogshit 7 at the very least.
Colton Edwards
This alt. DW4 outfit was dumb as fuck, and yet I love it a lot. He's such an edgelord.
Grayson Cooper
Sima Zhao gets to motorboat those titties. I’m jealous.
Evan Morales
Dw4 was the best game anyways. >the red musou ITS OVER scream he does God I missed that.
Levi Anderson

Jeremiah Hernandez
What makes it worse is Wang Ping WON the poll the other year. And if Wang Ping was number one you'd half expect Ma Su to follow suit as his complement at some point.
But nope, Zhou Cang. A literal fictional Guan fanboy is the only Shu add this time.

Colton Allen
That was back when he was voiced by Michael McConnohie. Kind of surprised he didn't stick around considering McConnohie was in so many games as him if you included the Empires and Warriors Orochi 1 and 2 games. It's kind of like how Dan Woren was Liu Bei in DW4-5. Empires, WO1, 2, and then stopped, but he's still around as generic officers to this day.
Michael Parker
>tfw I posted this on /a/ Kill me
Colton Sullivan
>didn't link so we could help him shitpost
Michael Myers
>wanting other people to see my humiliation
Ryder Myers
They probably recast Liu Bei due to his younger appearance in 6. Dan Woren was still around as Guo Huai too.

When's Pirate Warriors 4?
Sebastian Cox
you can already pirate dynasty and samurai warriors 4.
William Nguyen
I still play Nobunaga's ambition and Kessen III every single year (since mid-2000's) atleast once and haven't really got bored of either Is there anything wrong with me
Brody Hernandez
The director's favorite Shu officer is Zhou Cang so he probably pulled some strings to get him in the game, on the other hand the producer really likes Ma Su so maybe he'll be the next Shu add.
Dylan Richardson
Their probably hesitant to add Wang Ping because if they do, every Liao Hua fag out there is going to be pissed.
Jackson Jackson
this desu
Liam Campbell
>every Liao Hua fag out there is going to be pissed That makes no sense because they added Zhou Cang, who basically does what Liao Hua does but worse anyway.
Caleb Perry
you wake up tomorrow and find out that you are now Lu Lingqi the day before the flooding of Xiapi castle. What do you do?
Kayden Long
Hole myself up in the shack for safety.
Ayden Allen
I find user and execute him.
Isaac Lee
Burn the shack.
Samuel Brown
Once upon a time, I, user, dreamt I was Lu Lingi, fluttering hither and thither, a veritable maiden, enjoying herself to the full of her bent, and not knowing she was user. Suddenly I awoke, and came to myself, the veritable user. Now I do not know whether it was then I dreamt I was Lu Lingqi, or whether I am now a Lu Lingqi dreaming I am an user. Between me and Lu Lingqi there must be a difference. This is an instance of transformation.
Joseph Morris
He moved on from Xingcai.
Jackson Cook
Guan Ping has a fucking huge ass hunk of iron swung at max strength using every ounce of energy in his arms. Meanwhile, Xingcai is able to block it with one arm and a tiny lil' sword.
Wyatt Harris
no one ever said these games are realistic user.
Daniel Collins
Her skills are formidable after all. I don't really get the design ethos they went with for Guan Yu's kids, they make him this beefy warrior guy and then make all of his kids a bunch of weak-looking twinks except for the one that's supposed to be adopted?
Camden Perry
The others are supposed to be cute enough to sell body pillows of. That's the reasoning.
Cameron Mitchell
I stop the flood, kill Diaochan, and ride daddy's dick.
David Campbell
you're in the wrong place to discuss actual eastern asian games, it's all "muh waifu" here
Austin Cox
Those games have waifus too though.
Jason Johnson
Im glad the pillows are retained.
Daniel Parker
MOMMY
Isaac Johnson
Somone post Ikeda Sen's portrait please.
Zachary Hill
Guan Ping's sword does have a historical counterpart though.
Jayden Baker
What a cutie
Oliver Morris
Well Guan Suo's name in the source material is literally "Flower Guan Suo" so it makes sense. Zhuge Liang liked Guan Xing for being smart so that was probably enough to justify it for Koei.
