Support NeoGAF

Review summary

• Narrative is cohesive and surprisingly good this time around
• Characters are interesting and you can bond with them
• Bond dialogues are engaging enough so you want to talk to the characters more
• There's hints of romance (if you max out a character's bond level, you might get a romantic scene with them)
• Combat is much more strategical this time around, you can't just button mash and win unless you play on the easiest difficulty
• You can choose which faction to join at the mid-point of the game which changes a lot of stuff
• If you rush through the story, then it takes 20-25h just for one faction
• If you do side content then it might take you double than that, if not more
• There's post-game content
• Also a new difficulty unlocks after finishing it for the first time
• New difficulty isn't just HP and ATK increases for the enemies, says it changes up the game quite a bit with new moves, combos and stuff
• Reforging weapons also becomes available after clearing it for the first time
• Spoiler

  Lu Bu
  joins you after you finish it and is playable as a support character

Not bad for a Musou game.

Not bad and as a dynasty warriors fan i'll definitely pick this up eventually. The fact that picking a faction actually matters and the bonding system is actually good has me excited.

 

[Big Baller]

Is that Adam Jensen in the trailer?

 

[Generic]

Only one playable character?

Is that Adam Jensen in the trailer?

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Only one playable character?

Yes because it's you, you create the character and then participate in the Three Kingdoms period like you're Forrest Gump

This is a dramatic change from previous DW games where you play as the actual historical figures
