Ok. Most important question about Berserk Musou. Is there a Koei version of The Penpals Tell Me Why?

All of it is decent ambient stuff. But if you're using PC, there's nothing stopping you from modding it in or just playing one of the other soundtracks while you play.

I'll probably end up picking this up when it goes on sale. I'll be waiting a while though given Koei's track record.

Without going into too much detail, could I be unlocking new characters via Berserk's Endless Eclipse mode or are they Story only? Because I have been fighting a bunch of boss characters who look an awful lot like they should be playable, but I don't unlock them after their missions.

I had hoped that was hyperbole, unfortunate that this is the case.

Naturally, I expect we may see some DLC packs, if this game sells reasonably well.

There were definitely a handful, lieutenants like Bon Clay or bosses such as Kuro or Arlong. I'm sure they didn't have anything close to full movesets but it was still disappointing not being able to use them.

Oh right. They could join your side in Dream Log which is why I thought they were playable for some reason.

TBF, we've barely seen any of the Supernovas apart from Law in action. Yeah, they did Shanks, but everyone else in the game draws their movesets from a little more on-page combat.

I asked Alexa to play "Tell Me Why" and she started playing "Tell Me Why" by Taylor Swift. Then I specified by PENPALS and she knew the song I meant but couldn't play it.

Berserk Musou probably not "worth" $60 but I'm enjoying it. Based on the twenty seconds I spent in Berserk difficulty and the way accessory enhancements and random rolls work I feel like this one is going to have longer legs than you'd expect from a game with less than 10 characters.

Yeah I am actually genuinely surprised Kuro isn't playable, and I had just assumed I hadn't found him yet in the Dream Log.

That irritates me, it's clear there's already a model with a moveset so...!

Yeah, it's an iconic moment that's supposed to be about the big 3 Supernovas, so having one of them not even be playable or even be there is really weird.

Am I the only one who thinks that there's something wrong with the dodging in Berserk Warriors?
I cannot seems to dodge through any boss attacks and I don't understand if I'm just bad at videogames or if the dodges really have incredibly bad range and iframes compared to PW3.

HuniePop Warriors.

Edit for some actual content:

Having no prior knowledge of One Piece going into OPPW3 I enjoyed it, but was annoyed by not having all the people as playable characters. I felt the same about Arslan, although I have more complaints about that game than One Piece.

In Berserk Warriors you can press face buttons during the loading screen to make the ugly elf thing attack the "Loading Now..." text with his dandelion.
Doing enough attacks will charge him up and let you do a Musou attack.

Berserk Warriors really has the most satisfying core combat out of all the Warriors games I've played.
It doesn't have a lot of characters or very deep combat systems or anything but the few mechanics they have are very well polished and together with the animations and sounds it makes an incredibly satisfying experience.

My main complaint so far is I've been playing on Hard and finding Guts isn't really strong enough to justify his speed compared to Judeau or Griffith. All the mobs are dying so quickly I'd rather just be able to chop them up faster since the extra strength hasn't been needed. Hopefully Berserk difficulty will sort it out, but I'm not quite there yet.

Finished story mode today. Going through endless eclipse now. The game is really fun. Going into frenzy feels so satisfying to chop up enemies. The berserker armor deals so much damage, it's awesome.
Really hoping Koei takes the foundation of this game and builds upon it.
