That title came out five years ago, though.
If you went for 100% completion, you were looking at spending at least 100 hours digging your teeth into its secrets. It contained swift, crunchy gameplay, a ridiculous amount of content, and full co-op support for every mode in the game. Despite playing most of the Dynasty Warriors titles, a couple of the Warriors Orochi crossovers, and the wonderful Hyrule Warriors, I still have only played about 1/10th of the games in this series.Įven so, many people will tell you that Dynasty Warriors 8 was one of the best games in Koei Tecmo’s prevalent franchise. The team over at Omega Force has pumped out so many titles under the banner that you’d be forgiven for not knowing nearly half of them. There's a lot of game here, including the ability to customise and level up all 82 characters.At this point in time, people are probably sick of hearing about Dynasty Warriors. Each faction has distinct stories, locations, heroes, villains and battles, or you can enter Free mode to play any stage with an officer of your choosing, regardless of their allegiance. The voice acting is terrible, but hilariously so, and the characters are all superbly overblown. I had the most fun in story mode, which tells the story of the Three Kingdoms in the manner of a particularly melodramatic soap opera. The appearance of 'boss' characters and objectives that can change suddenly-like rushing to the defence of an overwhelmed ally-try their best to break up the slog, but there isn't really that much to do. Battles can go on for as long as an hour, with the 'KO' counter at the bottom-right of the screen ticking up into the thousands.
Your limited pool of abilities and moves is stretched far too thin. It's basically an elaborate game of rock, paper, scissors.īut one criticism of Dynasty Warriors I think is entirely justified is how repetitive it is. If you're facing an opponent with an affinity that clashes with your own, you'll be at a disadvantage and find it difficult to break their guard, but switch weapons mid-fight to a stronger affinity and you'll be able to strike them with a flurry of unstoppable attacks.
Your weapons have one of three affinities-Heaven, Earth, or Man-and so do enemies.
