>>743634231
Yuan Shao fumbled a free win. His family had the most presige and legitimacy in all of China at that time and would have been the ideal successors for the Han. On top of that he had the means to defeat Cao Cao if he used his resources correctly. After that unification would have been as easy as turning ones hand.

Is this shit actually worth watching?

>>743634516
Yes! It's one of the best shows out there if you like history. It has similar themes to LotGH where there is a big focus on politics and strategy. Imagine a soap opera made for people who like paradox games.

>>743634516
Yeah the characters and political intrigue are legendary.
My only complaint is that the battle scenes suck. Way too many quick cuts.
But those are a small part of the show.

>>743633687

>>743634516
genuinely yes, it's a great show.

>>743634516
I think it's great but keep in mind that it's based off an original work which was meant to be told orally over a long period of time, so there's repetition (and it doesn't have an infinite budget)
Very good drinking game material

Who's that guy who switched sides to serve Cao Cao then got blind drunk and insulted him in front of his men, dared them to cut off his head, then looked shocked when one of them actually did it?
Probably that guy.

I tried to get into it, I ended up falling off like 8 episodes in, but I do not think it was the series itself. I am just not a huge fan of that style of Asian storytelling. There is a lot of weird repetition and constant establishing of characters. I personally felt it was slow, but this is just one anon. I say at least give it a try, not like it starts boring.

A lot of Dynasty Warriors fans watched Three Kingdoms. I should probably rewatch the entire thing again. I wonder if they ever released an English blu ray set of it?

I would rather betray /v/ than let /v/ betray me

>>743636141
nope! no official english release at all
you'd think all those asian dramas getting popular would've done it, but this show is about hairy old men betraying each other instead of playboy billionaires with sharp chins so women wouldnt watch it

>>743636304
Damn. I guess I’ll have to get my external drive where I stored every episode. I think Sony’s patent on Blu-ray Discs is expiring in a few years (probably why they dropped physical games.) Maybe once that happens someone will slap together a cheap box set for the west.

I'm 37 eps into the 1994 show, a quarter through the unabridged translation and trying to play Total War Three Kingdoms. Can someone explain how the fuck I manage my commandries? I've never played a Total War game before. I also feel like a total retard while sending my troops out to fight

>>743634516
Watch the 1994 version

>>743639834
>Can someone explain how the fuck I manage my commandries?
There are buildings that give base income (one purple, one blue, one green, one yellow) then there are modifiers buildings that give different bonus on your base income (e.g. a blue building that give more commerce income. Your basic commandery build for provinces with weak minor regions (e.g.one capital and one grain province) is purple base income, green base income, blue base income and tier four city (don't bother building those high it's a waste of money). With commanderies that have strong minor regions such as capital/iron mine/iron mine you build the base income buildings first and then go for the purple and blue modifiers buildings after that IF you have high food income you can go for the yellow modifiers building too. Make sure to allways prioritize corruption reduction.There you go with this basic knowledge you can go play on Legendary difficulty.

Zhang Fei, absolutely.
>Dong Zhuo
Not a bad commander or even minister, just greedy AF
>Lu Bu
Max strength retard but was crafty enough to do the halberd shooting
>Wang Yun
Bit of a coward, but mostly his big fuckup was hubris after he 'won' and then immediately got BTFO by not backing down and backing Xiliang niggas into a corner forcing them to roidrage out
>Zhang Fei
Strong retard who fucks up EVERY SINGLE TIME and has no redeeming moments
>Guan Yu
Strong semi-retard who at least was a good commander, when he wasn't sperging out
>Liu Bei
Luckmaxxer who had some good traits, despite his hypocrisy. Would be a grifter in 2026
>Yuan Shao
Lots of ups and downs. He could be generous and wise, but also go full retard at times. Mostly just not decisive enough, changes his mind too much.
>Yuan Shu
Fucking mongoloid but he managed military matters fairly shrewdly, his downfall was caused by making everyone in the world an enemy when he was also surrounded
>Zhou Yu
Cucked to death by Zhuge Liang. Competent commander and minister, but couldn't get over Zhuge Liang's dick being 0.0001mm longer

Now the real question is, who is the most based of generals and why is it Wenyuan?

yes it's unironically kino

I was going to drop it after 2 episodes because of the indian tier cgi and retarded action scenes but the politics and character building are just too good

if you just treat the battle/action scenes as comedy then it's 10/10 political high stakes drama especially if you don't actually know the history of the three kingdoms period

Ironically, Zhang Fei is the one who fuck shit up the least in historic. A lot of Liu Bei's and Guan Yu's retarded moments were attributed to Zhang Fei in the novel for some reason.

Dynasty Warriors (and to a lesser extent, Musou games) have always had a small but dedicated fanbase around here. There used to be a long running general over in /vg/ until the influx of gachas and other live service games making the general survival impossible to maintain.

Both as this anon said >>743653812

1994 follows the novel more closely while the 2010 takes a lot more liberty, abridges stuff and ends early before the end of the Three Kingdoms. I personally enjoyed the 1994 version more, but each series has its own pros and cons.

i also ended up liking it more. 94 can be a little dry but that's due to it trying to be autistic with the details. but it's got a ton of soul and feels utterly campy sometimes. kind of gives me a new perspective on the DW games. those games are so corny but they actually feel totally in-line with the 94 version to me. 2010 is definitely great too though and it's fun to compare the two after you've watched both.

>>743640454
It wasn't that. Chen Gong was conflicted because he recognized that Cao Cao "maybe" destined for greatness, but deeply disagree with how he does things. Which was why he left in silent instead of making a scene.
