oh... so what's temco koei doing to celebrate it?
Just a little video recapping the series' history for now.

A new title or SW5 could be announced at TGS, at least I hope so.
I bought the Zelda musou for Switch yesterday. Already beat the 3ds version but i felt like playing it again at with more than 10 guys on screen
I've said it before and I'll say it again:
Take:
>Music, Humor/Tone and Difficulty from 3
>Story Mode from 7
>Gameplay from 8
and DW10 will be the most beloved since 3.
>Music, Humor/Tone and Difficulty from 3
I think the music from 6 is way superior to 3, but the series has never had any game with a bad OST I'm fine with whatever they make.

About the humor/tone, 3 is no more humorous than other title, the English dub just accidentally makes it so because of how bad it was. As for the difficulty, consider just how many mooks are onscreen in modern Musou games, I think it's impossible to go back to the difficulty of 3 unless they create a whole new franchise with a more realistic approach to the Musou format.
Sometimes those crossbowmen still hunt my nightmare, user.
They could be doing SW5 first. We wont see a DW10 until maybe 2022.
I've been awaiting SW5 for a long time.
is 9 better now?
>mfw Hefei on Wu side
That shit gave me PTSD as a child. Or was it the Wei side again?
Lol no. They gave up on it.
I hope they take what they learned from Orochi Warriors 4 and make the combat in DW9 be as fun as that.
DW10 I mean.
It's a better now with all of the updates.
>fixed the horrendous FPS problem
>free horse that's faster than Red Hare to help with travelling
>make encounter and siege scenes skippable
>enemies actually throw rocks and shoot arrows while being siege now
>Photo Mode is a lot of fun to mess around
It's still objectively a rather bad game though, just nowhere as disastrously bad as when it first came out.
Fuck you you almost made me reinstall then realized it's 41 gb.
Fuck that.
i have aHacked wiiu should i just download hyrule warriors ori s the switch version superior?
Thanks might pirate
The entire genre is trash
>ori s the switch version superior?
yes. All content, rebalanced adventure mode maps, switching between units on the fly.
>tfw no new Sengoku Basara ever
>even if they did they wouldn't release it internationally
I have not loved the franchise as much since 3. None have scratched the itch but back then I was a 10 year old kid with all the time in the world. Even printed the 4th weapon guide for all characters and blu-tacked it on my wall.
4 was decent, and 5, I skipped 6 and played my first Empires game which was decent. Skipped 7, played a bit of 8XL but couldn't get into it and not gonna play 9. One of my main gripes now is the weapon system of letting anyone use any weapon but each had a proficiency rating. Though my memory is all muddled up so no idea what has what now.
I know it's not a DW game but Pirate Warriors 2 is probably my second favourite.
What the fuck is Capcom's deal with that? They've had massive success lately and yet they can't bring over this one series that has eluded the West for years.
Devil King and Sengoku Basara 3 flopped too much according to Capcom's expectations, and licensing TM Revolution's songs probably costs too much to worth the hassle, I think?
Because Sengoku Basara Samurai Heroes flopped hard after getting big time VAs like Dante and Vergil's to do Date Masamune and Ishida Mitsunari.
If there's one thing about Capcom, is that they rarely give second chances to franchises that continue to flop. Dragon's Dogma was a desperate gamble that managed to pay off with the Steam release. Sengoku Basara isn't so fortunate as even in Japan, sales haven't been very good.
Musou games habit of releasing a half assed base game so that they can sell a stand alone ULTIMATE/XTREME version of the game with all the features you expect is no longer working.
I desperately want a Super Robot Wars musou spin-off. Just make Dynasty Warriors Gundam again but add in mechs from other series like Getter Robo
cope

I hope you at least calmed down somewhat after that, user. At least you didn't play THAT Nanman stage.
what did you guys think about DW Vol games? ~~non-direct ports of DW for PSP
totally fine now, yeah
you know, something in the back of my mind told me "just skip the nanman stages, trust me"
i cant explain what it was but something tells me i probably buried the memory of ever playing those stages for a good reason
The only portable Musou I've played is Samura Warriors Chronicles 3rd. I really like it since its missions are designed around the fact that you can give orders and switch between 4 characters, giving the stages a lot more things to do and force urgency upon the players.
