I didn't even notice she was supposed to be a tsundere until a while into the game. I thought she was just a competent leader that Sima Yi was very happy to see marry his idiot son. edit: also her ground musou sucks (and both of them in 8) but her air musou is great. Same as Wang Yi, actually.

Funny thing is, I'd say that compared to DW7XL Wang Yi, DW8 Wang Yi's clothing isn't less, it just moved down -- so now her exposure is just a cleavage window.  The GIG posted:One of the DLCs better be costumes that just shove Guan Yu's beard on all his kids. Samurai Sanders posted:Also I question if the people who voted for Wang Yi as a girlfriend really thought through the idea of having a gf who hates everyone and everything good in the world, and lives for nothing but dark, bloody revenge. Her special line for if she is killed by Ma Chao is especially troubling, she says "Look, everyone! I finally killed Ma Chao! You can finally rest...in...peace...." (dies) (When Ma Chao and Ma Dai defected to Liu Bei, Pang De had remained in Zhang Lu's camp since he'd been too ill to march against Liu Bei in Yi Province; Jia Xu suggested having Cao Cao's inside man slander Pang De to Zhang Lu, so when Pang De was subsequently captured, the lack of trust by Zhang Lu was immediately contrasted with Cao Cao's generous treatment and thus Pang De surrendered.)

So I just picked up Warriors Orochi 3 on a whim. First time playing ANY of these types of games. Is there a place in game or otherwise to run down some of the basics? What are all these names next to my characters. What am I unlocking/why am I having tea parties???

Seriously though Orochi wasn't the best one to start with because it assumes (not just for story reasons but also sometimes gameplay reasons, hence those names) that you know who the characters are and their relationships with each other. Anyway raising affinity of certain characters to each other unlocks extra stages, that's why you are having tea parties. Because you know, Zhao and his wife Yuanji need to have a tea party with each other to get to know each other.

To expand a little bit, you want to always run around camp after levels to talk to people and unlock stages. You may or may not be able to ACCESS some of those stages (they're the specialest most side- of side-missions usually) until you raise the bond between certain officers, but the game will tell you who those people need to be when those stages are unlocked---just look at the Battle Select screen and it'll tell you. The special type listed for an officer (Wonder, Technique, Power, Speed) gives you a general idea of what their basic "special" kinda ability is (look at Move List to see what it is, but generally speaking, Wonder can guard-break for bonus damage, Power isn't staggered by getting hit, and Speed can air-dash, who gives a poo poo about Technique), and sometimes factors into another thing: some characters will have a special skill like Power or Wonder or Speed, which increases the stats of characters in the party at the time who have that type. To find out what all those skills do (you'll see stuff like Fortune, Efficacy, Toughness) look at Officer Info during or just before the battle screen, it'll tell you. Stuff ranges from "bonus damage to enemy officers for all party members" to "better weapon/item drops" to "bonus True Triple Attack gauge every hundred kills" among others. The effect raises with Proficiency, which is increased by playing the character and killing a buncha dudes, goes up faster the more stars a level has / the higher difficulty / the more dudes you killed. Speaking of Triple Attack: don't be afraid to mash L2+R2 when your blue bar is full, if you're near a couple officers and some minions. The bar fills up pretty quick from random slaughter and it's the best way to get gems (to buy stuff) and crystals (to buy special stuff) and weapons. But like SS said, square, square, triangle. Guys with names over their heads should basically always be killed first (don't go out of your way to kill faceless scrubs unless there's a specific objective that tells you so, usually, or if you're bored), and when killed will drop a scroll (bonus EXP for whoever picks it up), weapon box (gives every character in the party a weapon, so don't worry about swapping to someone with lovely gear just to grab it; they all benefit!), or an item box (gives you an item, which you can equip two of at a time, anyone can equip any item, and you can have the same items on multiple people at once).

Samurai Sanders posted:There used to be DW games on the 360 but they did away with that I guess. Actually, now that the PSP is dead (or close), main line DW games might only be on the PS3 for a while. PS4 comes out at the end of this year and Tecmo Koei is a confirmed partner. I would not be surprised if they had some kind of launch window Dynasty Warriors game out for it, like I dunno Dynasty Warriors 8 Plus or something.

Re: Three Kingdoms Up to Episode 38 right now. The way Cao Cao dealt with Yuan Shao was great, but so was Zhao Yun's battle at Changban. That boy's got skills. The sleeping dragon, Zhuge Liang, is cool too.

Google just turns up a ton of filez. Amazon, Steam, Games for Windows, nobody seems to be offering it, at least as far as google is helping me. I haven't played a warriors game since 5: Empires and looking at the thread made me consider having a look back if it was cheap enough.

There's "lovable brute", and then there's "Liu Bei secretly ordering Zhao Yun and Zhuge Liang to depose Zhang Fei -- and Guan Yu for good measure -- should they get out of hand when Liu Bei's over in Wu territory". I guess stuff like that is why I'm left reading The Ravages of Time, I can stomach its version of the Peach Garden Trio much more.

The worst part is, the first video and the first ninety seconds of the second video seem to be Zhang Fei sober.  Trivia: Apparently the guy who appears at 48 seconds into the second video has an absurd lot of identical twins or Chinese magical clones.

The really pathetic thing too is that you can't navigate menu options via touch. That was absurd. All that being said... I still put about 100 hours into the game

Samurai Sanders posted:If it follows the pattern of other sequels to launch games on hardware with a gimmick like that, I bet it will. That's sadly a fair presumption. But what I would personally like to see, is how touch screen mechanics were implemented on the 3DS, Samurai Warriors Chronicles. That game was a launch title and it was loving awesome! Give me a few generals afield that I can toggle between by touching portraits. Give me a battle map that I can touch an icon and get some data feedback. I think the worst gimmick moment that NEXT had wasn't even touch related, it was every minigame that exploited the gyrometer. STEER A HORSE LIKE A DRUNK GRANNY THAT IS HALF BLINDED BY HER OWN URINE! AIM A BALLISTA BY WHIPPING YOUR VITA EVERYWHERE GIVING PEOPLE ON THE BUS THE IMPRESSION YOU'RE HAVING A SEIZURE LIKE THOSE GAME WARNINGS ADVISE YOU ABOUT! Want to change the settings and steer? Sure! Just hope you enjoy living in a hell of a poorly calibrated, hypersensitive right analog stick because we will force you to use the gyro gimmick UNTIL YOU loving LOVE IT! I haven't even touched the game in a year and yet my petty outrage can boil fresh as it had then. I need better hobbies I think.
