was the enemy camp pretty?
>>748869640there were no vice generals, and maybe a quarter of the peons. classic hard is much, much harder than vanilla dw3 hard
I have to kill every single peon in a group to get rid of the light red circle on map? Also sometimes ally officer have trouble fighting just peons(no enemy officer)? wtf
Anybody unlock the booty bodyguards yet?
Lmao I forgot even peons used musou back then. Shit just hits different
This dood with his jojo victory pose and during the ending is dancing like the girl officer.
>>748870370You can edit the ending if you really want to see him dance.
Game got me feeling giddy. Currently trying to get ssx 5th wep and holy fuck i'm getting blasted.
>"hey bro the enemies are too buff and takes forever to kill">"say no more">Difficulty: Novice
Been on a RoTK kick lately in preparation for this game (mainly rereading the novel and playing some musou). What is the best RoTK series game from Koei? I here a lot of praise for the PS2 titles but also see that the recent VIII remake has pretty bad reviews, so I'd like some input from anyone that's played a good bit of the series and this thread is likely where I'd find them.
>>748870926Just play three kingdoms total war. It mogs an japanese "strategy" game to hell and back.
I'm playing huang gai on chibi, I reach the destination for fire attack but the cutscene wont trigger???, my allies are getting raped east and west while im waiting for this shit what should I do
I got my ass filtered on hard mode.
>>748870926Generally, X is considered the best for officer play and XI is considered the best for faction play. They are both available in English on the PS2 but they are all without the Power Up Kit expansion.The recent VIII Remake has mixed reviews is because it plays very differently from the original game, and not DW3R different where there are so many QoL features, the gameplay is just fundamentally different and all the newly added features make the game way too easy, also all the roleplaying aspects are very shallow.I also have a soft spot for IX and XIV, both are faction play with the former available in English on the PS2 (which, again, doesn't have the expansion). The latter is available in English on Steam with the expansion, but English-speaking player base is cucked out of the very recently released Complete Edition.

holy nigger im getting my ass handed to me
DW4 was my first. I wish they did that one.
>+60 bow defenseFinally, I can play this game on easy mode.
Bought the deluxe edition cause I'm a retard and thought the retro outfits would look cool and now I'm stuck playing an ass looking 4 polygon Xiahou Dun for the rest of his musou mode.
>>748872743Are archer swarms still a death sentence in this game?
>>748872798yes
>>748872798I got killed by archers multiple times on the very same map where I got this weapon.
I wonder if they will end up doing dlc. If they use the same assets for future remakes then they can backport some early to double dip on them.
>>748872750post pics
Will Origins 2 continue to be the gayest videogame ever created or will they let us romance Lu Lingqi and Dong Bai?
>>748873105LMAO why does this look like they just slap beard on a baby and then call it a day.
>>748870998Isn't it kinda unfinished? Heard a lot of people say it barely even gets into the era of the Three Kingdoms.
>>748873314They decided all the dudes should look 10 years younger in origins. Lu Bu is the only character that looks right.
>>748873424Total War is completely unable to do it justice. Liu Bei alone spends like 20 years ping-ponging around gaining and losing land. It basically gives up after Dong Zhuo dies, meaning they give up after the intro to the period.
>>748869785this is the first remake that has justified this remake trend
>>748873105I really liked origins. Having more fun with the remaster tho
>>748872505she's vietnamese or something
Kino companion show for this kino game
Who has the SADDEST death quote?
>>748870926Hero's Vow just came out on steam and is worth checking out.
lu xun has a serious case of gay voice in the dub
>>748873693Wait, it doesn't even make it to Chibi, wtf?
>>748874410Looks interesting. How is the translation?
>>748874582on one hand the total war game has a bunch of goobers that don't get much focus, on the other hand a few key figures are just flat out stuck as unique genetics at best.you better not be a wu fan lmao.
>>748874582>>748873693>>748873424It's a total war game, it isn't a musou game or a linear japanese strategy game. The campaign spans 109 years and you make your own story, if you want to roleplay as liu bei and collect all your canonical followers you can certainly do that.
>>748874582It makes it to the Jin empire lel, how did you even get to that conclusion?
>>748874625Good enough.
>Xiahou Dun, Tempest Sword Weapon 5 >Chaos difficulty only >kill everyone let no ambush happen good luckHard difficulty was enough of a bitch I had to save scum for. Who in their right mind is pulling this shit off, you’d probably need maxed out stats first. And even then archers will probably 3 shot you. >>748872743How much does this help and how long did you take to farm this drop
Going easy mode so I don't get too annoyed at all the China. Fuck it I beat DW5 on Chaos with the nunchuk twink
So who are your favorite characters in 3?Kinda miss Zhou Yu's staff, but his sword isn't as bad as I remember. At least Sun Shanxiang is still pretty fun.
>people are already conplaining about special weapon acquisitionBack in my days, those shits require 2 players.
>>748875004Is this manga actually as good as everyone says?
>>748874926>how long did you take to farm this dropThat's the 4th weapon. The vast majority of them can be stumbled across blindly because the requirement is usually a simple>defeat X officer on hard mode
>>748875057I don't know, haven't read it yet. I saved the image from one of the threads.Though it's Mitsuteru's and I read his Genghis Khan manga before which is pretty good so I imagine the Sangokushi one would be good too, if a bit too matter of fact in the narrative at times.
i'm ngl i miss a lot of the more unique movesets these characters have in future games. i miss huang gais big ass boat
There's some enjoyment but I feel like gone are the days where you play a game like this just to play it, you beeline for unlocks and struggle against a wall for them until you get them all or get bored.
>>748870792what the fuck was this at the end of the last thread
>Mousou ending scene still unskippableSeriously?
>>748876360only the first time
>>748874995I'm yet to re-familiarise myself with many of the characters, but I've often been a xiahou dun enjoyer. Zhou yu feels a lot like I remember from dw4 (minus the ranged charge attack), and I generally enjoy the feel of his simple but effective attack pattern as well as the flailing running attack. I also remember liking swinging that big axe with xu huang a lot, but that's dw4 again.>>748875319I'm not well versed in schizo lore, but those posts have showed up in numerous threads. Nothing worth paying attention to.
did the original have the chinese pop ending with the girls dancing all sexy like
>>748877374Fortunately yes
>>748875057Yes, but it's kind of a slog to read. Yokoyama was a contemporary of Tezuka, and his writing carries the same bluntness of that era. In addition, he doesn't differentiate between characters after a certain point, so you'll be wondering why Cao Cao has chilled the fuck out until Zhang Fei shows up and you realize that it's actually Liu Bei. I like all that old shit though, so I loved it and I thought it was cool that Koei did a collab to add portraits from the series to ROTK.
How long did it take to get more than 2 bodyguards again? They are getting merit and growth points, of course.
how do i unlock yuan shao/dong zhuos musou modes
how's this run? i haven't played a dw game in a very long time and the girls in this look sexy.
>>748875057i didn't read it all but it's good from what i did read. it's funny too sometimes.
>>748878037They were originally added by XL and you could play them by simply owning the game. Not sure how it works here
>>748878037I think you have to clear sun Jian, Liu bei and cow cow's musou for Juan shao
Why is Zhen Ji always the best girl?
>>748874926Xiahou Dun 5th was an absolute bitch to get on the original too. t. did it in August of this year, again
>>748878248i'm a hipster and my favorite dw girl is wang yi

This track is pure soulhttps://youtu.be/0-bms2HcIpw?si=Ik-kkZfsbtBnPVdU
>>748878248She never was
I don't like how fast offscreen battles became, hope that gets patched
I will buy this if you can answer my question. Are WZP and Hefei Castle's difficulty untouched? Particularly on Hard mode. Can you dog-walk it with a fresh character?
>>748870926Depends if you want to play as a country or as a single officer. ROTK14 is only about war but it's a great system that actually lets you apply some of Sun Tsu's Art of War principles. ROTK13 is a roleplay fantasy where you can larp as anything from a merchant to an assassin in a 3K setting. 8 remake is simple but a good mix between roleplaying and strategy.ROTK11 is considered the best one but you'll have to install the English patch as there's no official translation.>>748870998While total war 3K is good it doesn't really capture the drama between characters the way ROTK does. 3K is a better strategy game, ROTK is a better simulation of the novel and the show because it's way more character focused.
>>748878463I always like this one.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0KnhINs8HkFeels like something that wouldn't be too out of place in a vertical shooter.
>>748878923THIS VICTORY SHALL BELONG TO WU
>>748878856 >Can you dog-walk it with a fresh character? It is possible to beat a musou mode on Hard and classic settings, but prepare to suffer, especially early on before you get good items or weapons.Harder than the original, I shit you not.I did it with Zhou Yu yesterday, Hulao Gate took the most attempts because I also wanted to unlock Red Hare, Chibi took some attempts because of motherfucking Zhang He and his archers, difficulty dropped after that since he gets the 4th wep and I beat Hefei, Yiling, Nanman at the first or second attempt.If you get a weapon with steel element, fuse it asap onto whatever you want to use.
am I the only weirdo that has it on EasyI don't exactly play these games for the difficulty
>>748879598Okay, this has convinced me. I don't want a dumbed down DW3. Your experience is reminiscent of the crazy shit that would happen when your back's against the wall and the NPCs start dying 5 seconds after you leave their side even at full health.
>>748880037Difficulty was part of the appeal for DW3, you are unironically playing it wrong.
>>748880037Bump up the difficulty whenever you feel like it. Like another anon said, part of the appeal of DW3 comes from its difficulty and how much KOEI has deviated into a pure spectacle fighter where the peons don't even fight back. At least in this game, you actually have to think about positioning and use different charge attacks. Play however you want, though. I just think you'd be missing out if you never bump it up.
>>748880071Not dumbed down in terms of how tough it can become, but I still find the mechanics mostly worse than the real game, even with classic options.>NPCs start dying 5 seconds after you leave their side even at full health.They made that worse somehow, I noticed people die faster offscreen, on both sides depending on who has more morale. That shit would only happen if you had more defense than attack in the original, now it seems to be the standard.
>>748880037The original DW3 recommends player to play on easy mode as you first launch the game.But since the Mountain Bandit Campaign is in free mode now, you should grind some stat on hard mode there since stat drop doubled on hard mode.
>>748880037Higher difficulties make item number go up which makes my brain happy.I'm only playing on normal for the most part, but hard is a bit of a shit for a fresh character. That's why I'm grinding though, more stats for hard mode, better item stats and fourth weapon, then hopefully get strong enough for chaos and the fifth weapon.
>>748880318>The original DW3 recommends player to play on easy mode as you first launch the game.I may be a Wu sissy(t. Meng Huo) but I never did that.Only time I had to play on Easy was when I wanted to grind bodyguards in XL because they fucking die even on Normal unless I speedrun the stage.Come to think of it, why the hell do I still have 2 bodyguards after a musou mode worth of merit points? They survive until the end here, even on Hard
>>748880437>Come to think of it, why the hell do I still have 2 bodyguards after a musou mode worth of merit points? They survive until the end here, even on HardThe bodyguards are stupidly grindy in the original DW3. I beat like 3 musou mode and the bodyguard count still max at 4.
>>748880496I swear I don't remember needing that much, but I guess it was about right, I haven't reached 25k yet
>>748880546Is defense still the meta I wonder?They don't get hit as much
Okay, the archers are fucking menace on Hard. I take back what I said about the game being easier than the original.
>>748878473yas queen slay
>>748880809I thought people were exaggerating when they said it can get harder than the original if you use classic settings and play on a higher difficulty, but it's real.Sho really made DW3 harder.
lu lingqi and dong bai when
>>748878248Just don't look up how she died.
Let's do hers. The first thing you need to know about Xiaoqiao is that she's really fucking hot, according to her intro
>>748881285Portraying her as a literal retarded child has always been wrong. Fuck the Japanese for their portrayal of certain characters like her, Xu Zhu, Wei Yan and NU Yuan Shao as an example.
>>748881285Funny how the red cliff movie portrayed her a complete jade beauty because it feels so wrong after associating that look with da qiao instead.
>>748881335We like her this way around those parts. Serves as a better contrast to Daqiao.>>748881391I think only DW ever portrayed Xiaoqiao like that.
>>748880386Cao cao is probably the easiest fresh hard mode character since you get his 4th weapon on the first stage
>>748880697Im dumping all attack into crossbow girls, they never take damage
This is the one game where Dian Wei was sick as fuck design-wise and moveset-wise. Does he still have his Lightning element 4th weapon? That C5 smack down was awesome back in the day.
>>748875319/a/ yurischizo that has been driven out of numerous online communities, usually looks for threads that have hit bumb limit and are about to fall off the catalog to battle his nemesis. Didn't know he did it outside of /a/. 4chan equivalent of a screaming hobo basically.
I mean, I kinda get his point, but what the fuck, Sho?
>>748881285And she's good, maybe a little worse than the original but we are mostly there. You can now rotate her C4 without spacing it because turnlock barely does fuckall, even with me having it enabled.I still lost the first stage because offscreen sim speed caught me by surprise and the captain died quickly
>>748882060What's the problem?
>>748882408The fact that he bluntly states that he doesn't want Remaking other games.
>>748882408He wants to make new stuff but he will have to do whatever his bosses tell him cuz hes a wagie at the end of the day
>>748882501That's a fucking issue now?>>748882543That's not what it says at all.
>>748882060I'd rather get DW11 than DW4R desuDW5R might edge it out thoughor SW2R
reee i haven't touched the game yeti also have hundred line to play too
She can just dash cancel for free now.And you can have 0 recovery frames if you loop N3.And her musou attack has a larger hitboxHow strong are we making her this time, considering she already has steel on her 4th and c6
does anyone play not the classic mode?
>>748883102I thought you can cancel literally any moves now by blocking
>>748883154Yes, or almost. In the original if you used her dash attack, you would get giga fucked because she has a very long recovery animation, now she has no weakness whatsoever.
Make /eagg/ again please even for a while
>DW3R vs Origins vs Warriors Orochi 4which one has the best fanservice with hot females?
alright time to unlock Lu Bu
>>748883328Orochi Warriors 4 obviously. It has athena.
youwon chow this battle is mine
Thought it would feel easy if you abused guard cancel, but Hard+Classic can be played like that and it will still kick your ass.
Whats the best dynasty warriors game to get into? This series is the most confusing shit to ever exist
