Lu Bu should get his own spinoff game.

Lu Bu May Cry: Red Hare's Awakening (and Diao Chan's Tiddies): Special Edition

There's a game called Legend of Cao Cao with a full translation patch if you're interested in a strategy rpg starring Cao Cao.

It varies. I thought he was pretty good in DW7. Less so in DW8.

I agree that Zhao Yun is kind of boring admittedly, but I don't mind him as the protagonist. It's not like he's going to be the only character in the game. It's pretty common that I find the protagonists of a story to be boring and the side characters to be more interesting anyways.
That pretty much sums it up for me too.

Although honestly I did quite like him in DW8 being a kind of mentor character for the late generation in a couple of stages.

Zhao Yun is like Superman. Too perfect to really be interesting, but giving him a bunch of flaws would just take away what was definitive about him.

He's bland because he's supposed to be.

Doesn't that genderbend all the characters?

I'm going to tentatively say no...

In DW4 Cao Cao is "kinda" the protagoinst. And it fits very well.

Maybe this is asking too much, but I'm hoping Wu gets the spotlight in a spinoff at some point. They always get the third wheel treatment, but I think there is a lot that can be done with a focused Wu story. It might not work in Dynasty Warriors, but it would work outside of that.

The Dynasty Tactic games had a couple of good Wu stories, but Shu and Wei definitely seemed to get more interesting ones even there.

I forget if it was DT1 or DT2, but my favourite Wu storyline was one Sun Ce lived, and ended up heading north during the whole Lu Bu conflict and helping him out.

I actually liked Wu the best in DT2. In DT1 it was all about Cao Cao. He was amazing in that game and could even recruit Zhao Yun (!) early on.

In DT2 the Wu officers were so good though. And yeah, I preferred the storylines where Sun Ce survived but that's because I'm a natural contrarian who prefers what if? hypotheticals. I already know what happens in history so I like to be surprised.

DT1 was just crazy in general regardless of who you played, if you capture someone they will 100% join you (aside from the ones locked to a faction). Could make the most insane and hilarious armies. Part of why I prefer that to DT2.

Definitely was more fond of the hypothetical routes in general there myself. Not so much in DW8, didn't feel like there was enough to them in that.

DW8's were cheesy because they followed a dumb flowchart where X dude is saved and does something amazing in Y stage that would otherwise have been a disaster for the faction. Literally every hypothetical was like that and while the concept was creative in some ways, it got old fast. The best execution was in 8: XL's Lü Bu's story because it didn't rely on that stupid and overdone trope. It did its own thing which worked a lot better.

Dynasty Tactics hypotheticals were absolutely crazy by contrast.

Yeah, that's true.

Part of me loved how Shu's hypothetical in DW8 was based around Zhang Jiao living though. That's just fantastic for the worst reasons.

I didn't feel like the hypotheticals had any real impact. Maybe I just didn't like the story presentation enough to care, or maybe it was the way the stages were laid out.

They just felt like extra things to check off before unlocking another character, which was annoying.

Ugh that was so corny. His appearance at Fan Castle of all places made me cringe. Shu probably had the worst hypotheticals (and story) of all in DW8. :lol:

I'm really hyped for KOEI lately. There's so much I'm excited for, but most of all ROTK. However, if we do get localizations of Nobunaga's Ambition Risshiden (probably not), Legend of Zhao Yun (unlikely) and Toukiden 2 (probable), it will make it even better. We're also getting Atelier Sophie too. There's lots for me to look forward to.

I thought the Jin hypothetical had some ok moments and the Lü Bu hypothetical was just awesome. Otherwise they were mostly lame.

I think ROTK XIII will be my first ROTK game. It looks really good.
