It's supposed to be slang for getting married. But of course nerds take things literally and it's still a very stupid meme.

just a note that this line here was actually in the original japanese despite a ton of weird nerds getting mad about translators adding memes, so it wouldn't surprise me if the joke in dw9 was in the original japanese too

As far as I can see, it's delivering what was wanted for a long while: 'Dynasty Warriors, But With Open-World'. They've never done open world, so it's gonna be funky, even with plenty of examples to draw on as inspiration.

They at least have experience with open world via Toukiden 2, so it won't be too bad.

I took off Wednesday and Thursday instead of my normal Tu/Wed when a new game comes out because I'm holding out on impressions. I haven't played a DW game since 2002-ish?, bought DW8 on steam a few years back but bounced off because of the bad gamepad controls, and this is landing right when I am itching for a mindless podcast game. i don't mind if a self-professed musou fan like Jim Sterling isn't blown away by it (and I respect his opinion) but unless its catastrophically bad/broken, I'll buy it.

It seems like the big game right now is Monster Hunter World, and while it's sort of piqued my interest, at the same time, the gameplay for it doesn't really wow me all that much. Dynasty Warriors 9 is the one game I've really been anticipating, and I'm leaning more towards dropping $60 on DW9 rather than MHW because I have brain problems. That being said, I'm waiting for it actually come and see what the thread's reaction to it is going to be. A lot of what I've seen recently had made me skeptical, and I already was sort of skeptical about it being open-world. Admittedly, I'm pretty new to the Musou games (I've mainly played DW8 on PC and SW4Empires on PS4), and I'm not familiar with a lot of the games, but what I have played I've really liked, so I'm still excited for it.

Okay, I got the game early and it did not leave a good impression on me so far. That said, I don’t want to poo poo on a game ahead of release and I want to give it more time anyway. Rescinding for now

thorsilver posted:At least you're admitting it It's not like I think MHW looks bad. What puts me off about it, though, is that it seems like you've got to invest a lot of time into it, and it relies on you being able to connect with others in multiplayer so as to complete quests more easily. It's more of fear of dropping the money on it and not really having time to make a dent in it between work, other games, and whatnot. DW9 I'm expecting to be like the other games, where you can pick it up and play without much hassle, only in an open-world environment.

Giant Bomb will have a quick look posting tomorrow at 6am EST. I don’t need validation if they don’t like it, I’m more interested in seeing long uncut video of the final version. I’ve thus far avoided most of it pre-release e: also, the trophy list is here http://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2018/02/06/dynasty-warriors-9-trophies-killing-100000-warriors/amp/?__twitter_impression=true Platinum requires 100,000 k.o.’s Scott Forstall fucked around with this message at 16:20 on Feb 10, 2018 |

How's the performance? I heard it kind of runs bad on the normal PS4, unless it's being patched in a day-one. I'm curious to see how they using this engine in an Empires game and how they change things up when it comes to Samurai Warriors.

I've been eating up footage, and I think I've realised something. The heart of a game where you'd create a character and try to live through the Three Kingdoms, making friends and alliances, choosing a kingdom, and seeing various events, is all there. Except you can't actually create-a-character.(Yet.) You'd expect to have more unique missions for the main Warriors, but there are not. Many times your character doesn't even speak up. The free weapon choice(You can use whatever you'd like, at full skill; you'll pull out your favoured weapon for unique actions.) also adds to this.

Just for the sake of variety, I have seen more positive impressions from a few people elsewhere, particularly those playing on higher difficulties (it seems to make a difference in terms of AI behavior). Beyond that...it's really going to come down to personal expectations about the game, especially whether or not the open world implementation is worthwhile as a rough proof of concept even if it's not up to date with current standards from more experienced developers yet, outside of purely technical issues like performance quibbles. Jimbot posted:Do you think there is room for improvement using this engine or is the whole thing just a bad idea? There's always room for improvement on paper, I would say, depending on your patience as a player. Bloodly posted:The heart of a game where you'd create a character and try to live through the Three Kingdoms, making friends and alliances, choosing a kingdom, and seeing various events, is all there. Wait for DW9 Empires, I assume. Unless they decide to incorporate that into the main game later on.
