All characters are fan service

Everything in video games is fan service, the whole game itself is fan service

They have to make people want to buy it, if it wasn't "fan service" nobody would
The most pretentious argument people use, I see it a lot and it's soooo frustrating.

Not because you're dissing Lu Bu, but because you're chatting ****.

That's like saying Tadakatsu is fanservice, or Gilgamesh from Final Fantasy is fanservice, or ****ing dragons from Dragon Age are fenservice. Just because a particular character is stronger than others recurringly doesn't make then fan-service, they're not that way so you'll damn buy the game. They're that way because the story dictates it and they wouldn't be who they are without it.

I can understand that.

Nezha constantly beating Lu Bu and Lu Bu's Beast DW7 Fantasy Costume makes him less of a warrior and more casual friendly.

Chen Gong just makes Lu Bu look even more stupid when they lose.

To bro-fanboys I agree he could be seen as fanservice. Never underestimate how much guys love "badasses" but use that term loosely.

It depends how you view it, every single female in DW is fanservice but that's apparently sexist. Kinda true though.

Seriously each game needs certain characters to cater for the demographic, there's fanservice then there's just being 'not stupid'.

EDIT: There are only a few things I class as fanservice, to me the blatantly obvious one is the more and more breast shots of characters we have every damn game.

If it wasn't for this DLC, I wouldn't be able to play Lu Bu's DW8:XL Story. Costume makes Lu Bu remotely tolerable.

I like Chen Gong in his alt,
Diaochan in her DW6 costume,
and Zhang Liao in his DW4 one.

choosing not to pander to fans is not stupid, its just having integrity.

Fan service isn't used in this context as meaning "just added for the sake of sales." Most characters are modelled with certain aesthetics that please demographics. Lu Bu isn't "ugly" per se but his character and personality and actions are created in a way to please the buyers. Regardless if that was his historical personality or not. Cao Cao's design and written personality fulfills the same fanboy demographic who want to see cold calculated leader tropes. Da Qiao more than likely historically wasn't the moe moe but the creators created her personality and image to appeal to some demographics. She could've easily been built to be another SSX-type character or a Kosho-type character, but the writers chose to use her to fulfill a desired trope for their target audience.

How they are used in the story is an entirely different matter.
