Edit: System network seems to eat my posts and vomit out two at a time. On a more fitting topic, I do hope the next third party Warriors title is more like Hyrule and less like Fire Emblem. FE Warriors was just disappointing, and I'm a big fan of Fire Emblem.

Tae posted:Some numbers on the Koei Tecmo front: I'm very surprised and impressed with both the Fire Emblem Warriors and Nioh numbers. Excited for the inevitable Nioh sequel. Edit: also, honestly, DW9 was not half as big a disaster as I expected saleswise. Huh!

I wish the IP distribution rights weren't so hosed, I'd play another DW Gundam again in a heartbeat

King Arthur Musou. Plenty of characters to choose from.

A world where Bladestorm was a proper Musou instead of a poorly thought out strategy game.

Civil War Musou. Give me anime Lincoln versus anime Davis.

Isn't there a Joan of Arc game that's Musuo esque, but by a different company, and kinda terrible? PS2 era?

That's one of the problems with Bladestorm, you play as a generic grunt not one of the interesting characters

Well, at least you can play as Jeanne in WO3 and she's pretty solid there.

You don't get that with a blank slate protagonist.

It's fun being a self-insert who uses one of the most powerful movesets alongside the person who also uses it then becoming their sworn brother or something like that. Interacting with them is just as fun as playing as them.

Gary and Mary Stus own the hell out of the Musou universe, and it never stops being hilarious to me. "GokuIRL has defeated Lu Bu! Morale is soaring!"

Look man, WeedLordVegeta was the mightiest warrior in the land. Revisionist history killed that legend, so it's fitting he gets his just dues in these video games.

Yeah, give me the option to play a created officer and I'll do that 99% percent of the time (In Empires 8, I think I've played as Lu Su and Chen Gong, and other than that it's all created officers, and I've played a lot of Empires.) Unsurprisingly I've got like 100 created officers in ROTK that are all part of an empire built by a fictional son of Yuan Shu that goes four generations deep, and they all have detailed backstories and histories. For whatever reason, I really like creating characters in the three kingdoms setting.

I guess there's that one guy whose name I forgot who I remember calling 'Count Babyface', I liked that guy. That leaves...?

Joan of Arc

Nobles in history get referred to by their seat rather than their name enough that that never bothered me, but Bladestorm really was lacking in memorable characters. There was the Black Prince, and the welsh Archer named Branwyn who I remember for some reason, but I don't remember anyone else. Hell I played 20+ hours of that game and don't remember ever even reaching Joan of Arc.

I decided to play this big lanky goober with bad hair and glasses in AOT 2, and it worked perfectly. ‘Imagine your character as a school shooter’ works weirdly well for musou games.

The Doomhammer posted:Nobles in history get referred to by their seat rather than their name enough that that never bothered me. Okay, fair, but let me give examples. Edward is introduced to the player as 'Edward, the Black Prince'. The aforementioned kings are literally introduced as 'King of England, King of England', and 'King of France, King of France'.

Actually yeah, a Musou game that goes from the revolution until 1830 would be great, Napoleon would be awesome, the Duke of Wellington, Louis Napoleon, and there are well definited costumes for the French Legion as well as the British army. Probably also have Prussians and Russians as well.

Hell I played 20+ hours of that game and don't remember ever even reaching Joan of Arc. That would be because Bladestorm covers a LARGE swath of time and so the beginning of the game is largely about bumming about with the Black Prince beating the poo poo out of France while trying to convince the king not to simply burn his way across it.......and then there are large period of functionally nobodies for how long you get to know them (Bertrand du Guesclin, Arthur de Richemont, Philippe le Bon, Hal, and Henry Percy the Gan Ning of the game) and then Joan shows up and the plot picks back up for awhile before I believe it gives you a mission to either make sure Joan dies (if you supported the british mostly) or save her (if you supported the french mostly).....and then the plot ends and you just get to do all the battle grounds forever while trying to get the side stories to finally loving trigger and unlocking magic, elephants and gunpowder weapons to lead up to the fight with 'Legendary Mercenary' John Hawkwood. By that point though its kinda reached lovely warrior game level though because I started completing missions by not getting any back up people and just running through bases killing guys with my overpowered cooldowns because I'm geared up in frankly ridiculous armor and weapons. It's not a BAD game but it has a wind up time and it can be annoying as hell convincing certain missions to actually show up so you can progress.
