So I've finally watched the trailer... the voices are about what I'd expect from a Koei product. Aka, sufficient enough, I suppose.

Except Zhong Hui. It fits his character, but that doesn't mean I'm obligated not to cringe in disgust every time he talks. It'll make someone punching him in his smug little face with a drill spear all the more enjoyable.
This, a million times. I cannot wait to ruin his smug grin.

Voices seem okay. I like all the new voices and am Glad Wang's voice isn't high pitched like I had worried.

Bao's will though :crazy:

The enemy HP bars seem much higher now, they are like 2 full bars almost :D (well the officers at least) Hopefully this is the case, I don't want to hit a peon for an instant kill.

Koei seems to be making alot of weapons bigger than before. Zhen Ji's flute, Shang Xiang's Wheels, and Taishi Ci's rods, to name a few. I am going to miss my smaller flute but I'm sure the new one will be as good or better than the old. ^_^
Kinda makes you wonder if Koei's trying to compensate for something.

DW7, by far, also has the best graphics of any of the DW games. I mean, HD guys! The game is looking so beautiful.. I just can't wait to see how much sleeker it's gonna look on my 1080p HD tv ^^
Well, I mean, I'd expect it to have the best graphics of the series so far, since we haven't seen a new DW game since, what, 2007? Too bad consoles can't make use of anything beyond DX9. It could look even better. The post-processing looks great for a Koei game though.
If Koei cant even make full use of the console's graphic capabilities at where they stand right now, then what difference would it make if the consoles had even higher capabilities? ;) Maybe for other companies who are riding the borderline right now, like Naughty Dog, could excel further with such. But no reason to hope for such a thing with a DW game, at least no where near right now.
Haha, I was going to make this same exact point, but I got sidetracked and forgot to state it. Thank you for adding that, because it's so true.
Opps, I accidently hit the delete button on my post :mellow: I saw you quote me, and I was like hey where did my post go? :o :facepalm:


I find Zhong Hui's voice quite hilarious :lol: , especially with him being a pretty boy. It probably turned a lot of fangirls off after hearing that, ha ha. I personally wouldnt change it, I think it is fitting.

FITTING?!!! :kurokan:

It sounds like he's trying to hold his breath a bit too much, but I want to ehar more and see if he continues to sound so bad, maybe he will have a better voice when he yells and screams while attacking :dance:

His voice sounds too old though. I bet the voice actor is like 30, even though the character is 17.

The voices, except Sima Shi's and Guo Huai's I guess, turn my stomach.

That and again the liberties being taken with the translation. Yuan Ji said nothing about "what a ruler should do" in the original dialogue.

If there's no dual audio, then I'm going to get the Japanese version and just endure the difficulty of trying to read Chinese names and terms spoken/spelled with Japanese kana...

Okay I'll sleep :XD
But I was just wondering, is Liu "Shan" the correct pronounciation of the name? It used to be Liu Chan.
That's just an alternate spelling. It's like Cao Cao being translated as 'T'sao T'sao' in other cases.

Is it just me, or has Lu Bu lost some weight to his armor and went slightly effeminate... I dunno if I like this new look of his. (However, are those his abs I see? :shifty:) Pang Tong looks like he could be wearing a flower pot on his head but it'd be interesting to see the entire thing. Hopefully he doesn't look like a random moth again :lol:
It's not an alternate spelling. It's an alternate pronunciation entirely.

Seeing "Cao Cao" and "T'sao T'sao" is basically seeing Pinyin vs. Wade-Giles transliteration. They're pronounced the same way. "Shan" and "Chan," however, are both Pinyin and are pronounced different ways. They're different ways of pronouncing the same Hanzi, but with two different meanings.

The "Chan" pronunciation refers to meditation and Zen. Zen wasn't even in China at this time, so it's most likely the improper pronunciation. "Shan" refers to the Imperial throne. As a matter of fact, if you put Liu Feng and Liu Shan's given names together, you get the word "Fengshan," which refers to the imperial mountaintop worship of Heaven and Earth.

EDIT: About the trailer... so not impressed with the voices. I'm not one to prefer the Japanese voices, but some of those voices were painful to listen to. I hope it can be chalked up to "we were in a hurry," because it literally sounds like a lot of the VA's just phoned it in...

I wish I could do that as well. English voices for Japanese games are an insult to everybody who hears them. Why they are so hilariously bad I have no idea.

am i the only one that thinks the weapons that have been shown so far seem rather dull. look at Lu Bu's halberd, it looks like one that not even a generic officer would be given. and a picture of Taishi Ci shows his with little skinny rods.
Those are most likely level 1 weapons.

They portrayed Zhong Hui as an arrogant and angry teenager.

WHY?!?!?! WHY MUST DYNASTY WARRIORS MAKE EVEN MORE STEREOTYPES?!?!

I mean, Justice and spear lover was enough, but an angry teenager?

What's gonna happen to Liu Shan? A baby or a girl?

English Zhao: Why bother?
English Yuan Ji(said as if she's trying to teach/advice Zhao): You should bother, it's what a ruler does.

Japanese Zhao: It's a pain in the butt.
Japanese Yuan Ji(said with disappointment): Again with the "pain in the butt"... (You're) worthless.

Finally catch up with everyone, read like 20 pages ( i don't mind reading all of them, that way people can actually feel people actually listen to what they want to say).

Now to DW7, OMG my favorite sombrero guy is back(pang tong), he looks kinda like Raiden from Mortal Kombat (j/k)used to control the wind but it seems that now Zhuge Liang does <_< , maybe he is going to control thunder :)

From the voices at first I was like:
ahhh Zhong Hui looks dreamy :wub: , before hearing his voice i was expecting something less childish, then i hear his voice, and i was like :OMG: , Zhong Hui, maybe Guan Suo would have a better voice.

By the way, I don't want SSX voice from DW6 back :meantongue: , hated her sooo much in that game (besides looking like tinkerbell :angry: ) Koei can give that voice to Xiao if they want to(hate so much Xiao's new outfit, I like more the DW6 one)

VAs makes me wander who would Lian Shi sound like, she could be bossy like SSX in pass games or maybe a little sexy voice so everyone hate her more( I would love that they give a good VA to her, would make a lot of hatters hate her even more which would make me laugh :dance: )

And lastly, I want the Whip(Fail) and twin daggers in this game :) , The whip was the only reason I liked diao chan so much in DW6(I also like sima yi's claws but Koei remove them :sad: )

I had a feeling they'd use that promo image as the box art. And I'm so ok with that, because it's the first time they've ever shown a character emitting real, intense emotion.

America wins on box art this time. Now I wonder what the EU box art will be.

Well, I expected also that. I knew there would probably Zhao Yun above. I did not expect to see other characters, like Jin's characters. It is simple, but I like it. Anyway, I do not care the box art, I does not really pay attention to this. ^_^

Nah, i think both NA and EU will get the same cover..

And ive been looking at famitsu for ages now and i still cant find the recent update for DW7, i cant find the CG arts of Quan,Shi and Bu. So i guess we just have to wait for the official website update. (will that be today or tomorrow?)

Oh and if we play as Shu,Wu and Wei in Kingdom mode and we finished it, do we get separate endings? Like what happened to DW4? And obviously Jin will get a different ending, owning all the kingdoms lmao.

And fingers crossed for the JP voice option.. "I will not lose to a dullard!" lmfao
