I feel like I'm missing something about Zhu Ran's weapon. Is there some trick to using it that I haven't chipped to yet, or is it just completely underwhelming and kind of crap?

I honestly quite liked the way DW5 did its story modes: The major faction leaders got a longer, more involved musou mode that hit the important events of the overall tale while subordinate officers got smaller musou modes that chronicled their own involvement in the greater story. I think that was a really smart way to present the game in that it kept any one story mode from dragging on in the manner that DW4's did (or DW8's can) but it still delivered a lot of content. On a related note, it really bugs me that player 2 can't pick whatever character they want in story mode. I know it's ~not canon~ but the game is honestly a lot more fun when you're not playing rock-paper-scissors to see who doesn't have to play Sima Zhao for the fifth time in a row.

Unlucky7 posted:...okay I did not play much of DW7 Jin story, but unless 'Chill to a fault' somehow became to be known as whiny, then I am missing something. This is in DW8. He was slightly less annoying in 7, mostly because he just didn't have much of a personality.

Chortles posted:You left out Cao Cao being told of this and rewarding the guy with silver. Which really just lends more credence to the line of reasoning that Cao Cao was a fuckload more benevolent than Liu Bei, at least in the practical sense. Guy just lost his wife - he'd need help even (probably especially, actually) if he had other family. We can also recall how he purportedly took care of the "problem" of Yellow Turban remnants near his territory by trying to give them field work or a chance to be part of an army as opposed to just massacring them and ignoring the survivors.

Granted, but on the list of weird poo poo people may or may not have done, giving a guy some cash now that he's down a spouse is at least less dickish than going "oh, how sad! Well, g'bye! "

Early on you can also use cash at the barracks to get weapon materials that you can convert into facility materials at the merchant.

zarron posted:Also you can make a much better weapons than the majority of 5/6 star weapons you have to do missions for. Is there a trick to this or what, because as near as I can tell the starting point for the process is something along the lines of "pray you get a totally blank lv4 weapon" and then you go from there.

Jesus, what an awful trailer. If they wanted to sell the game based on super-serious tense and dramatic storytelling, they missed by a mile.

Watch the head of the trident when you use the various strong attacks, they leave pretty distinct colored trails.

On the flip side, the war trident is a weapon with a gimmick and it's probably my favorite new one in ages. It's a great combination of flash and power, which is kind of a disappointment considering I don't think Yu Jin is selectable in more than one non-free mode level.

I haven't actively tried to level up fortune hunter, but I got a rank in it from playing Zhang Jiao's story stage. It's replete with mooks and officers.

I know why they didn't allow you to bring three weapons (because then the rock-paper-scissors system would be meaningless), but man it is just SO HARD sometimes to settle on only two choices

Samurai Sanders posted:Is Hyrule Warriors a remarkable Musou game even if I don't have strong feelings about the Zelda series? It's sincerely quite a good game, yes. Tons of content, tons of mooks and a really refreshing feeling of variety between the cast members. It also has the dumbest, silliest story in a really good way.

I don't get the love for Tingle. Camp characters are one thing, but he's not funny or interesting or even particularly helpful in any of the other games he's been in EDIT: Like this DLC pack is honestly super disappointing. Young Link and Tingle? Why even bother? Chachi fucked around with this message at 19:01 on Jan 14, 2015 |

Xiahou Ba is the stereotypical obnoxious dipshit with lovely voice-acting but a really fun moveset. It happens all the time (which is why empires is best, because I don't have to play as him to have the siege lance be someone's EX weapon )

Davincie posted:quick dqh question: do accesoires work when you aren't playing that character? ie: can i give the 3 guys im not playing elevating shoes to make then catch up with xp It's been a while since I played, but I don't think an accessory does anything when the character isn't in combat. Edit: To clarify, anyone in your active party counts as "in combat".

Oh, that sounds pretty fun (colors aside)! Good to hear that Koei's capable of learing from Capcom's mistakes as far as gameplay goes. Anyone have any thoughts on Toukiden 2? Is is recommended to start with the first one (the Kiwami version) or just jump ahead to the latest & greatest?

I'll say this for the English voice acting in DW games: At least individual characters say different things when you beat an enemy.
