Now I'm really not sure if I want to get the game when it comes to NA, or wait for a port. For those of you that have the game, is it worth the lags and cut stories, or should we wait for a much better port?

Sorry if this isn't where to ask this. :ph43r:

Well it still does depend on if they do make a port all things considered...

From what ive seen, i would say its worth it..

And we still have no release date for us so if they do make a port, we could end up getting it maybe sometime late this year or even maybe next year..

It all depends on how long you can wait :rolleyes: .

I'll answer it anyway, haha. The lag is nothing to be concerned drastically over. It's just a little bit slower, that's all. It's not like it makes the game look horrid or that it makes it a sluggish, unplayable mush, far from it. In my now 80 hours of playing the speed of the game has done nothing to keep me from playing it, and I initially disapproved of the framerate when I first saw it many months ago. Eigi being worked in makes it feel faster than it's ever been even if its elder siblings ran at a faster framerate.

The cut stories are a loss for sure but, all of Samurai's characters are fun enough that you'll want to play them anyway. It's not something I'd defend at all but, it's not a hopeless case for the storyless characters like it was in Dynasty 6. The 30 stories that are in are overall very much worth it anyways.

So the low frame rate bothers you and yet you wouldent buy a HD port which would most likely fix the low frame rate?..

And you have a wii yet you wont buy the game because you dont use the wii often??...

What?.
Well, if you must know ...

1. Right now, I have no PS3 or 360, so NO I will not buy an HD port

2. My circumstances don't allow for much sit-in-front-of-the-TV time like I once had. I'm always on the go between working 2 jobs and raising a family.

3. Even if I wanted a PS3, see #2 above ^

4. As for the Wii, it sits there and collects dust most of the time. We don't play it unless its something the family can all play together. SW3 isn't really one of those games.

I had interest in it at one time, but as time has passed, I just kinda lost interest in it. Its no longer one of those games that I feel I must buy and find time to play it.

The low frame rate is just one of the many reasons why I lost interest in it. If/when they port it and fix it, my interest may peak again, but I still have those other things ^ to think about.
I don't really see how this is anything more than a livejournal update. Contributes nothing to the SW3 discussion.
It was in reply to joetri10 on the reasons why I'm not interested in buying SW3, which included (again) some minor complaints about the game. My original post is in fact quite on topic. -_-

Hey now, everyone has the right to chose to buy this game or not. Leave those that don't/can't get the game alone. Unless their Basara fans, THEN GET THEM! (I joke, I joke)

Seriously, I'm waiting for the port. The additional castle mode doesn't interest me the least, so if they do make a port and take that part out, I can live.

Besides, I can wait. I literally have work, work, work (three jobs) and other games to fart around with. Heavy Rain much?

I thought Motochika was flipping people off in one of his scans until i realised it wasn't his middle finger in the air honestly can you imagine that? :lol:

Take a look for yourself :lol:

this is kinda for a general thing of games being released outside of japan, but it also has to do with koei games doesn't the U.S. normally get games sooner than EU? i've seen release dates for alot of games not just ones from koei, it seems we normally get, with some, within a couple of days of each other, and others they get games months after NA even a year in some cases....why is that?

No.

Look, its simple. I posted my thoughts here in the general topic to see if anyone else had the same "not as excited feelings" about this game, and listed just a couple of small reasons why I did.

Then I get questioned asking to explain myself, so I did.

I was as hyped as anyone could be for the SW3 announcement. I followed it from the 1st day until now and have slowly lost interest. I have no need to complain in detail about the game, so no need to post there.

Honestly, if my post was off-topic a mod would have told me already. Let them do their jobs and don't mini-mod, especially when its in error. Now just sit back and relax and wait for Seraphil (or any other mod) to come in here and tell us both that this discussion is over.

Your just complaining about the frame rate...

Saying you have no time for games in quite odd seeing as you are currently playing other games anyway?..

and saying you dont play the wii often is also odd... I dont play my wii either.. but when i get the game, il start playing it more...

Your whole comment just means you used to be excited but now you dont like the frame rate... and you find the game pretty boring...

Thats complaining is it not.. -_- .

Im not trying to start a fight but your dismissing the game before you have even played it...

Honda-san simply stated that he lost interest in the game due to the low framerate the game has. He may have just one complaint, but there's no need to start another pointless argument if it's only one. Don't worry too much about him, Joetri: I promise. ;D

You tell them Kaon! ;D

Since I'm here, I might aswell give my thoughts.

I'm on the same page as Mr.Honda, the game has lost its spunk for me some time ago, i just don't have interest to play it or buy it for many a reasons. I might buy it if a port comes along and i get a sweet and cheap deal on it thats worth it (like 10-15$, used most likely) but even then, i may not because i don't really care about it any more. It just looks like a not-too-great game that wont last me very long or hold my interest.

And damn, they should have used Kunoichi's concept design, it was freaking Ace. :mellow:

Am I really coming across as impossible to understand? :huh:

Seriously, this isn't that difficult a concept to get.

This is a game that I have followed since day 1. I f-ing camped out on Tetsuo's Live stream to make archive gameplay clips of this game for people here who missed the live stream.

From reading posts here by those who have played the game and from watching extensive gameplay footage, I'm sure that I would like this game if I were to buy it and play it. The frame rate would bug me a little bit, or at least take some time to get used to, but it wouldn't stop me from playing.

However, it makes no sense for me to buy a game that is going to sit around and not be played. Its not as simple as "finding the time for it" because I'm not at home long enough to. The last Wii game I bought was Brawl and you can count on one hand the amount of times I've played it.

This is why 99% of my gaming time is on my PSP as I'm always on the go and working away from home. Maybe one day when that changes, I might buy this or a PS3 port if I can afford the HD upgrade.

Because of these reasons, I lost interest in the game. All I wanted to know was if other people had lost interest in this game as well. If I wanted to complain about the game, frame rate, etc. I would've gone to the appropriate complaint topic.

Is that any clearer? I never came to this topic to start an arguement or trash this game. There are just some people here who either can't read or can't accept others' opinions simply because they're different and want to start arguements. This is why I stopped reading this f-ing topic and from now on, I'll do what I did before and just stay out of it.

I must be a huge hardcore fan of samurai warriors.. If some others of you get put off games pretty easy/quick '.'...


I just don’t understand people's lack of enthusiasm towards some of these games... I would just understand easier if we knew you have played the game before dismissing your excitement towards the game...

For someone who was so excited only to not really care about it a month or 2 later baffles me O_o...

Dont get me wrong, im not having a go... Im just weird like this :cool: :XD

Not necessarily a "hardcore" fan, you're just not seeing this in a diferent perspective.

You obviously are younger than Mr.Honda, you don't have kids, a family, a full time job, you probably have a fair bit of extra time too.

Mr.Honda has things that occupy him that aren't video games, they aren't the most important thing to him, and since the game doesn't interest him, why should he blow 60 bucks on it if he doesn't have any urge or time to play it. It would be pointless. Thats where the lack of entusiasm comes from. SOme people just don't have as much time for video games, or care much less about them, people move on from them, and things seem more trivial to thme, and minor flaws that could make a game look boring, make it not worth their time and money that they could use on more important things to them.

^ thats how I feel at elast, I have less time for games, and less interest, this games are not inovated and barely change, I have other hobbies or activities that come before games and i just don't feel like I need to waste money on this and feel obligated to play it. Its all just a different perspective, not everyone is in the same situation or mindset as you, and thus think differently about things.

He was excited because of the hype train, now that its gone, and there is no hype, Mr. Honda realised the game just ain't worth his time.

At least thats just how I think. =)

@RockOn649: These aren't complaints, its just people saying they've lost interest in the game thats all. Besides, the complaints thread was just to stop all the whining about the cuts and whatnot, now that that is over, there isn't much use for it. ;)

Sorry for the off-topicness/spammy posts.

Seriously, back off, joetri10. He doesn't have to explain himself to you, or anyone. There's no need to get so butthurt over someone having a life outside of video games...

Last I checked, stating that someone is losing interest in a game (that hasn't shown much signs of being released overseas anytime soon and the company appears to have forgotten about it) is not really a complaint. So knock it off, before you piss off anyone else.

Sorry, but it's shouldn't have come to Honda feeling he has to defend himself like that. If you had children and other mouths to feed, you'd understand.

On topic, I agree with whoever said most or all of the female characters' alternative outfits were better. Oh well, to each his own.

The quality of female outfits doesn't matter anymore, as long as they show lots of skin and cleavage in the redesign. :mellow: Poor females, they get so donwgraded in games, action movies... Its kinda sad really.

Bayonetta (Is that her name? I don't even know her name) Looks like a badass I-can-do-it-myself-and-still-look-stylish- kinda girl, not these -ohmybigstrongmancandoitforme <cue pretty eyes> girls we see so often in warrior games, and other games alike. XD

Mr. Honda,

I totally see where you're coming from and I think I've probably lost a bit of interest since the initial announcement. At first I really wanted to see what everyone was talking about and what they felt, but now, I don't know if I have that level of energy anymore. I think I will still buy the game since I will likely want to see the stories in English, and I'm sure I'll have friends who want to play with me that will renew some of my excitement, but yeah, right now I'm just "meh" about the game. I think the main problem is that when the game came out, there was such a swarm to see everything about the game that we've already been spoiled for most of the stories and gameplay. I think it's a sad truth about the internet in general; it's too easy to see too much. I have no doubts that the game will be fun, but I've already seen a lot of it. The magic of experiencing things first hand will be lost. And it's hard to be excited after that. It's like playing an RPG after watching a video walkthrough. You already know how to beat the boss and what happens afterwards, so what's the point, ne?

Ah well... now I just feel old and crotchety.
