this just got revealed some days ago, thoughts? will it be shit or nah?
Dynasty Warriors 9 Empires
Empires is fun to fuck around in but I still like the story mode more in the mainline games. If they can fix the terrible performance issues then it has a chance of being good.
I might get it on switch if it runs decently. The stages in the empires spin offs are usually pretty short and unfun so being portable will counteract that
Depends on how much it fixes all the shit parts of 9
thoughts on being able to marry your dynasty warriors waifu again?
Its not open world and officers get unique weapons again. As long as they fix the combat it'll be great
You cant make incest partnerings so its an automatic garbage mechanic.
you can't make your character the son of one of the older ladies and end up becoming her husband?
any new character?
You cant have the faggot dudes from jin marry their mother, or sun shang marry either of her brothers, or bu's daughter marry her daddy despite her being a fanfic character. Your cac isnt canon so why would you claiming theyre related to another cac fix the fact that theyre fanfics themselves and scratch that empires itch?
I am so surprised people still play this rehash shit it's worse than fifa now.
Still remember the first time I saw DW2 back in the day, blew my mind
it's probably gonna be the same as 9's roster, your cac maybe?
it 9 so skip. they could have hit gold with a Fire Emblem Warriors three houses edition or a new Samurai Warriors game. but fuck man, 9 empries and an ios game. shame.
yeah, it's fun to fuck around, getting the events and shit, it's probably gonna be fun for 10+ or so hours
There's an old article on gematsu that said the producer was interested in a '9-2' even though he KNOWS that 9 wasn't well received so maybe it has a smaller budget since it reuses 9's assets. I guess I just dont want them to go: WELL 9 EMPIRES DIDN'T SELL ENOUGH SO ITS TIME TO SHELVE THE SERIES FOR A WHILE.
DW9 was just shit all around. Empires can't save it. Though Empires has also been incredibly boring with the modern installments so I'm a bit lost on why they'd make it in the first place.
Call me when Warriors Orochi: Empires becomes a thing.
I hope it's good, Empire was always my favourite version.
Good enough at least to tide me over until Bannerlord gets a Three Kingdoms mod.
To be fair Empires subseries has always been niche, but considering it basically recycles base assets + adds a character or two it's probably worth it for them to keep making Empires titles.
they're cutting out the open world aspect entirely for empires
yeah seriously where the fuck is sw? i really really liked spirit of sanada but that was a few years ago now and i am itching for something regarding the inevitable sw5
Isn't SW 2 Empires supposed to be the best of the Empires games? Why the fuck hasn't PC got that one yet? I bought 9 stupidly and have less than 3 hours playtime in it still because I still mostly play 8XL and 8 Empires.
after few who would want 3 houses edition?
Yeah I wanted it too but we never got it probably because the other Samurai Warriors games on PC didn't sell.
Especially annoying because SW2E has a 360 version that could've been ported at some point.
Never touched DW9. Would that be considered a good thing?

I don't think they'd shelve the series. It's the team's main money maker and it's probably a zero-effort affair to produce. Ideally, they'll give us a DW10 with some real care put into it in response to 9's lackluster reception, just like what happened with 7 and 6
>yeah empires, is fun to fuck around with
>Dynasty Warriors is all about the story!
it's "fans" like you that hold this series back. Empires is the natural evolution for this series in a game that's already aimed at being replayable.
but he's correct. The idea behind Empires is solid but it's never executed well and so ends up being a shittier experience than the base game.
They're not mutually exclusive. The ideal DW game would have the traditional RotK story mode, an empires mode (and maybe the strategy aspects of empires worked into the story missions gameplay), a bunch of bonus missions, and an edit mode that lets you take a CAW through all the other modes. I don't think they'd ever do that though, because it would be basically impossible for the next game to top it, and they earn more money selling Empires as its own separate thing.
I'm more annoyed because it's the same story all the time. DW7 was the last game changer with introduction of Jin and continuing the story for their stuff.
Jin sucked dick.
Wow, you're really upset about that, huh Cletus?
>Warriors Orochi: Empires
You're a fucking idiot.
I hate jin so much, its like the same guy with 7 different haircuts and makeup.
