I personally like every single design so far. Some of them look a bit too "same-y", but they're all good nonetheless. I liked Zhao Yun's hair style from DW6 better, too.

I'm glad they're back more to their old selves. I didn't like DW6 looks that much, even though it was a nice experiment...
But now I'm curious about all the other characters. ^^

I like the more realistic look the characters have but will their clothing be under a realistic animation? that's what I dislike about some previous designs from the DW franchise, the lack of realism. Overall all look amazing thus far. I could care less if they may look somewhat of the same as before but if you change a character to much it will kill the character. It's like making Guan Yu without his legendary long beard. But I am digging the new looks.

I am assuming that Jiang Wei gets fully confirmed, he would have his SF2 look simply because of the fact that Da Qiao and Cai Wenji who were also in SF2, have the same design. If Meng Huo gets confirmed either it will be the same as the DWE6 look or a mix of that plus a new design.

From what it looks like, the DW7 designs are based off of DW6's. Except Ma Chao. Which is a good thing.

I've been posting my opinions in the main thread as everybody has been revealed. I think most of them still stand such as liking Xing Cai, Xiahou Yuan, Cai Wenji, Lu Meng and Da Qiao. Ma Chao is a disappointment though I'm glad his Super Saiyan hair is gone, Cao Cao looks good minus his shoulder pads, etc. Also, I've decided that I don't like Ling Tong's outfit, period. I didn't like that it looked like modern-day clothing, but I liked the style... and now I just hate it overall. :\

The two new Jin characters, Wang Yuanji and Zhuge Dan, I find to have a couple of my least favorite designs so far (along with Sanniang.) I understand that variety is a good thing, but they just look way, way too... out there for a DW game, I guess. It probably doesn't help that I don't like their designs much even if they weren't in DW, but they just feel too out-of-place. It's not their clothing that irks me - that looks fine. But it's more their faces. I also don't like Zhuge Dan's hairstyle, but that's more of a personal gripe, I guess. Yuanji's blonde hair doesn't bother me (hell, I love Nagamasa's blonde hair), but god, her face...

It'll be interesting to see their personalities in-game. I don't really have a DW character thus far that I full out dislike, so I'm looking forward to seeing if these two will be the first that I do or if I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Since I just complained so much, I'll leave off on a positive note. Da Qiao and Cai Wenji - I don't mind that they kept their MR2 designs because they both look fantastic. Mainly, I love that they both look older/more mature - it's kind of nice. I'm looking forward to seeing if Xiao Qiao got the same treatment. If so, I guess that probably leaves Sanniang to pick up the game's role of loli.

She has a new weapon: Single fan. (Unlike his sister, who should retain its two fans. At least I hope).

dude just read this

http://koeiwarriors.co.uk/dw7-gameinfo.php

It has all the info you want about weapons and non cloning and returning to a charge base fighting system.

Zhou Tai has his katana
Xiahou Dun has his scimitar
Lu Xun has his dual blades
Ling Tong has his knunchuks
Zhen Ji has her flute
Ma Chao has his spear

now as for some, their weapons are different like

Xiahou Yuan will have his bow
Da Qiao seems to be having a single fan
Cao Cao has a crazier looking sword
Xing Cai has her shield but a sword not pike

For more info just go to the game information section on the main page in the Dynasty Warriors 7 section.

Out of all of them so far, I love Cao Cao and Zhuge Dan's designs. Cao Cao becomes more regal with each game he appears. Zhuge Dan is very sauve indeed. I said it before and I will say it again, his pose and hair reminds me of Cary Grant and Gary Cooper! :lol:
His outfit is really marvelous; he looks every bit the polished and refined officer.

If Sima Yi would have newly appearance (older / greater / wiser). His weapon couldn't be string gauntlet anymore. He might be suits with sword or something to make him a Boss of Jin.

It is blue. The cape looks purple, yes, but the other clothing is blue. Also, in DW6, he had a purplish hue as well.

Zhao Yun honestly looks like a male version of Ina to me, though that's when I view the picture from a farther distance. Otherwise, I like his new costume.

Bao Sanniang looks pretty interesting. Not sure how fond I am of the short shorts, but I'll be looking more at her personality when the game makes it to the US.

Ma Chao simply looks epic! Enough said.

Xing Cai looks like a warrior princess now, but it really suits her. Overall I like her new costume, though.

Cao Cao looks pretty impressive and he got to keep his cape! XD Anyone else noticed how his hair keeps flaring out more and more?

Cai Wenji well.... she looks exactly like her Strikeforce 2 self obviously. I still like her design, though. It's very elegant and it suits her.

Xiahou Dun looks freakin' amazing! I like the new hairstyle even if I am a little biased toward his DW6 one.

Xiahou Yuan..... he's the most cheerful guy in Wei at the moment. His design is nice and suits him. Does he seem a little chubbier to you guys?

Zhen Ji is looking as elegant as ever. I really like her costume this time and can't wait to see if Cao Pi matches again.
Da Qiao is Da Qiao. I'm not really a fan of her, but overall she has a nice design. It makes her seem a little, too innocent if you ask me.

Ling Tong honestly looks a little flamboyantly gay if you ask me. He's using a girl's hairpin and skin tight clothes again. Just seems a little odd to me. I still like his design either way.

Lu Meng's is an improvement. It shows that he's not just some dumb brute like Yoshihiro Shimazu. (No offense to you Shimazu fans.)

Lu Xun looks like he goes to the same tailor as Ling Tong. And... those skin tight pants look like they hurt. Again, I still like his design either way.

Zhou Tai looks like he's wearing chaps. XD He still looks epic, but Koei needs to decide whether or not they should give him a cape and let him keep it or just get rid of it.

Sima Zhao's costume looks nice, but... he strangely reminds me of Tidus from FFX. It's the face. Or just the goofy grin. Either way, he's my favorite male character thus far.

Wang Yuanji is so pretty! Koei did an amazing job when creating her. The dress isn't, too revealing either. My favorite female so far. X3

Zhuge Dan just creeps me out. He bears this resemblance to the Apprentice on Star Wars the Force Unleashed.

Sima Shi.... eh, I can't really say much about him. He looks alright, though.

Here's to hoping that they add more than one outfit and a couple cariations of colors...

Itd be realy nice to see them go all the way back to DW3 and be able to wear any of the outfits from 3, 4, 5, or 6. If not, have some secondary outfits as well. One thing I don't like it that they show too much skin, both on males and females.

Also, there can't be symmetry. One shoulder and arm can't be the same as the other. Zhao Yun would look so badass if he was completely armored, but the fact that his right arm is completely bare looks unrealistic.

By the way, I really like Sima Shi. And Ma Chao is already my favorite character (again).

Zhao Yun: Ina gender bent :hehe: (don't kill me >w<) His outfit overall is okay. Just the bare arm and the hair throw me off.

Bao Sanniang: I wish she was a bit more covered up. I don't know why they included her really <_< looks like she's used for fanservice IMO should've been Ma Yunlu over her

Ma Chao: looking splendid as ever :XD I like the helmet

Xing Cai: an improvement from DW5. She looks like she's ready for some battles

Sima Shi: can't figure out how to describe him but he's cool

Sima Zhao: same as his brother

Wang Yuanji: she's very pretty and I'm lovin her dress

Zhuge Dan: hmmm wonder how he and Zhuge Liang will interact....

Cao Cao: nice cape Nobunaga- I mean Cao Cao :whistle: he looks more sinister but awesome as usual

Zhen Ji: I'll admit, I'm not crazy about her outfit at all. I was hoping it would be like her DW6 dress but there's no use complaining about it....

Xiahou Yuan: his smile reminds me of Billy Mays (no offense to him)

Cai Wenji: one of my favorite DW characters. Love her dress and she's looks so graceful

Xiahou Dun: Badass as usual :)

Lu Meng: a big improvement here don't mess with Meng now ;)

Zhou Tai: good outfit but I wish he had a cape

Lu Xun: I think he looks great but the pants........stupid sexy Lu Xun

Da Qiao: this my favorite costume of Da Qiao. The dress fits her and I like her hair down

Ling Tong: it'll take a while to get used to the outfit, but the red and black look cool

Hmm...

Jin:

Sima Shi - He seemed like an "evil" character and the look fits to me. He reminds me of Cao Pi and and that makes sense.

Sima Zhao - I don't like his apparent "good guy" look.

Wang Yuanji - Quite possibly my favorite design. She looks great and if they give her the scheming woman behind the scenes attitude, it would be great. She may give Da Qiao a run for her money as my favorite female DW character.

Zhuge Dan - As interesting as his look is, it seems fitting to me as a member of the Zhuge clan with the "arrogent, I'm better than you" feel.

Wei:

Cao Cao - His look doesn't really seem to change much between games. Over all its ok.

Xiahou Dun - Looks good except that half swept back hair style.

Xiahou Yuan - A vast improvement over DW6.

Cai Wenji - She looks beautiful. She and Zhen Ji both look sexy but on opposite ends of the spectrum.

Zhen Ji - Zhen Ji looks great like Wenji but she takes a different route to it I guess.

Shu:

Zhao Yun - Looks fine to me. People claim that he has the "Ina" look due to his hair being in a pony tail but its not the first time he's had it tied up like that.

Bao Sanning - Umm..... I am not a fan of her look to be honest.

Ma Chao - An interesting look. People whine about Yuanji being blond but ignore Ma Chao?

Xing Cai - I like her new look.

Wu:

Zhou Tai - Possibly my least favorite Wu look. Maybe its just me but I honestly prefer his older looks over his newer ones. Give him back his Katana and Cape and he'll be made of win again.

Da Qiao - Finally they aged her!! I never played SF2 but I do like her new look. Did she really need the hat though?

Lu Meng - I may be on an island here but I really liked his DW6 look. This look isn't bad though.

Ling Tong - Considering he is a character that favors speed over defense, the look suits him in my opinion. I do look it.

Lu Xun - They got rid of that stupid face pain or w/e! I can take him a bit more seriously now!!

So far I love Wei design... It looks serious, and not everyone's a teenager. Unfortunately can't say the same about everyone else but at least we're having less 'beautiful' men than we did in DW6. I prefer the 'odd' look we have now instead of beautiful. It's not as good as it could be but it's much less annoying.

Anyway, the worst offenders:
- Bao Sanniang doesn't exactly look like a warrior... Or a noblewoman, or anything like that. A mix of a dancer and a stripper? I don't know, judging by the picture, her personality and looks don't exactly match. But I suppose we'll just have to wait.
- Lu Xun is STILL a 'beautiful' teenager.
- Ling Tong's a lot better than in DW6 but now he looks like a modern day fashion model. Didn't know such things existed back in the 200s.
- Ma Chao is just plain... odd. He doesn't really look like a vengeful and fierce warrior.
- Sima Dan... Wait, what? Shouldn't that read Zhuge Dan on the first page? Whatever, he's a bit odd too. Not too bad, I just don't like him personally.

Also, Lu Meng is pretty badass. And Cai Wenji looks great. Maybe a bit too bright but I love the Chinese symbols on her dress (assuming they really are Chinese and not just something KOEI made up).
