I haven't played 7 8 or 9 yet so I'm hoping those aspects of the games aren't too lost on me but I will be a happy gamer if I can play as Torneko and brutally slaughter thousands of playfully named monsters, ghoulies and slimes.

I paid this off last week. I haven't played more than a couple of hours of any given musou game and the only DQ games I actually owned myself were Monsters on the gameboy and Rocket Slime, but I'm really excited for this.

My fave is probably V, but IV V and VI are all good. IX probably too but the online is dead so a big chunk of the mechanics are gone from what I understand. Then there's the Rocket Slime games and other spin offs but I haven't played those

this, but IV was my favourite. you cant go wrong with those games. another good game to look at is 8 on the ps2, its also for the 3ds but i got it for the ps2.

Seems like IV is a good starting point for someone new to the series. 25 dollars used on ebay also isnt too shabby. Looking forward to a powerful gaming experience, thanks to all.

9's online was never relevant outside Japan anyway. If you really want, and you have a flashcart, you can get either a save with the online junk enabled or a save editor to tweak what stuff is available.

yeah for sure. Between this and 11 and also the amazing stable of games on it already. (Also p5 in the pipeline). It's a good time to own a ps4, especially knowing your taste in games

Apparently this game is more like a action rpg than a musou game

people who say this have likely never played a musou game, since teh difference is semantic at best. 'Musou'/Koei have a bad wrap but they've had stuff like stats and items and missions for like 15 years now

there's a lot more going on here than what i usually see in other warriors games and the art style works with having more unique enemy designs to fight than just different colored soldiers. levels look like they got more going on, too.

DW: Strikeforce had big bosses and stuff like that, but nobody played it cos it was rear end. This seems to have a bunch of stuff they've done all in one game, rather than cherry picking, which is why it's gonna own so much

all i'm saying is you're gonna be getting a lot more musou than you think, and ppl seem to be prefacing everything in regards to this game with 'Its not REALYl a musou game!' which is BS, since they're good games to begin with.

yeah that's the one i was thinking about with the giant enemies. it's good to see koei doing new ip and reworking on past ideas. a lot of the poo poo they get is that every warriors game is the same as the last but now there's more soldiers on the screen but they still can't manage frame rate issues.

Ah makes sense. I've just never played a musou game so I have no frame of reference. If I like this one and they make a dw game for ps4 I'll probably play that too
