Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a fun game but not altogether the epic I hoped it would be.I like the new characters designs and the different fighting styles and all that. Being able to take on hundreds of people at once and rake up a thousand kills on a regular basis is pretty cool. The graphics are brilliant but, I don't know, it just seems to be missing a lot of the content that Dynasty Warriors 4 had.Not to mention characters.Not only does this game feautre no new Characters but it subtracts from those already existing.Where is Meng Huo?Not in this game.Granted I haven't unlocked every acheivement but still if he was in the game there would be a nanman level or you would see him somewhere. (And why even have a Zhuge Liang Storyline without the nanman campaign?It would be like a Robert E. Lee Story without the battle of Gettysburg.Kinda lame.)
How is it that this game has less characters than the previous version.Generally the series gets more characters as it progresses not fewer.Not only that but of the few that remain, only a handful have musou story modes which is kinda lame(sure it would probably be hard to make storylines and movies for each character but that doesn't mean I have to like it) You can play the less popular characters in free mode but it just isn't the same.I tried creating my own storyline for Yuan Shao by having him play through a bunch of free mode battles but realized I couldn't since the battle of Guan Du only has two sides in this game.Cao Cao's and Lu Bu's. (Lu Bu wtf?How did he get involved in that battle) Speaking of Lu Bu, unlocking him is the only reason to play through half of the musou modes.Some of the charcters aren't as cool as the other, in my opinion.
Getting over the characters, or lack of them, and onto the actual gameplay the game plays well.The new renbu system is interesting once you figue out what it is.Although the same basic attack, charge attack scheme is in play, charge attacks are separtate from your main attacks, meaning that you can't put together any super charge attacks like in previous games.The charge attack looks the same whether you press it first or use it as a follow up to a series of regular attacks.That means that once you get unlimited renbu you don't even need to use the charge attack.You can just hammer on the x button.The charge attack is only really useful for breaking enemies blocks.Speaking of enemies, they are a bipolar lot.On the one hand the regular enemies do almost nothing but stare at you while you hack them to pieces while the officers while hand you your buttchecks.Also certain officers will get angry and then they do tremendous damage, enough to kill you in three or four hits.When they get into this state they glow with a flame.I've come to refer to these powerhouse's as 'flamers'.When you see a deadly flamer you need to save the game unless you want to risk losing all the exp you have gained in the battle.Unlike some of the games in the series you can't save your exp from a failed attempt.Sometimes free mode is the only way to get your chosen hero past a certain point.
Really though, long story short, while I like the game I would have liked it more if more characters were in it.Maybe they will fix this when they come out with Dynasty Warriors 6: Xtreme legends.
