DW6 VAs were okay... Except Sun Shang Xiang. Keep her that VA far far away from Sun Shang Xiang.

i think Koei could release at least 10 new characters through DLC


the characters could be

1: Liao Hua
2: Li Dian
3: Cheng Pu
4: Wen Yang
5: Yuan Shu
6: Zhu Ran
7: Yu Jin
8: Guo Jia
9: Zhang Chunhua
10: Yue Jin

think of all the downloads those 10 chatacters would get alone plus they can be given a weapon from the DLC weapons as their EX weapon
I'd have a heart attack lls. Though I doubt 10 I would say 4 or 5 one for each kingdom and maybe a new other. Then that's how you get new weapons, but eh just a thought right?
Can't see that many added at all to be honest and definately not those characters that many people want like the ones listed.

It would leave Koei with little to entice people to buy DW8. If all these characters were released as DLC for DW7 then who are they going to add in DW8 in order to get people to buy the game?

I think if we do see DLC it will be characters like Lu Lingqui, Dong Bai etc. Those that were not that promient, although I hope I am wrong cos I want all the characters on your list to be added :dance:

LOL. This will be definitely not happen. 10 characters is too much. If they decide to include characters in DLC, it will be in my opinion not more than 5 characters. The best would be to add one to Wu, Shu, Wei, Jin and possibly in Other. Seriously, do not expect a lot of characters in DLC. That will be not happen. ^_^

Idt Koei would bother adding those many characters in DLC's because they probably have them in store for the next DW game installment.

I think if any character is a DLC the MOST likely person would be Zuo Ci. Since he doesn't appear in any stages or really has a story plus he has been in previous installments.

Haha as appealing as that would be, I think 10 characters might be pushing it a little. So probably 4-5 max.

Also, in terms of DLC, I remember reading that some will be free, while some you have to pay for. Wonder which ones will be free, and which ones will be priced?

I think costumes and weapons might be free, and stages and other characters (probably Xtreme Legends/Empires content) will come with a price tag.

Any thoughts?

also Koei never Confirmed that there would be no character DLC plus Lu Lingqi would be a defo buy in my eyes as a character

Off topic: we now should be able to preorder DW7 from gamestop
From (only) just the site or the store, or both? I'm just curious because the game shows up on the store's site, but not in the 'Coming Soon' list of the store itself...and that confused me.

I was ready to ask the clerk at the store yesterday if I could preorder the game, but I was so confused that I didn't.

EDIT: That thing with it not being seen in the 'Coming Soon' list happened in every GameStop I visited up to this point. I hope it shows in the 'Coming Soon' list very soon.

I really hope a boring character like Liao Hua won't be added to the game. Same for Xiahou Mao.

I just don't understand people's obsession with these two. If they add rubbish like Liao Hua for Shu they might as well add Mi Zhu, Mi Fang and Sun Qian.

We need people who are not just important but cool too. Like Xun Yu, who is Cao Cao's most important advisor, and Cao Zhang. Cheng Pu and Yu Jin are way overdue too.

I am not saying that Koei will not add DLC characters, I think they might but if they do it won't be major characters that fans have wanted for ages, I think it will be more obscure ones.

If they add all the characters you list into DW7 (who are probably the most wanted by fans) then the characters they will add in DW8 will end up being pretty rubbish in comparison. Therefore, there is less incentive for people to buy DW8. They could just get DW7 and download all their fave characters instead.

They always add a mix of characters fans have wanted (like Ma Dai and Jia Xu) and obscure characters (Lian Shi, Bao Sanniang). It means that they can add content in each game the without leaving themselves nothing to add in the next installment.

What would sell better - A DW8 game that had Yue Jin, Cheng Pu, Zhu Ran etc as brand new characters or a DW8 game where the only brand new characters were more obscure people?
Most probably the first.

Liao Hua, Cheng Pu and Yu Jin are certainly not boring. They had many events (especially Liao Hua) and I think Yu Jin should be added before Xun Yu (yes I know he is important too).

lol I did not sat that Cheng Pu and Yu Jin are boring characters. I said that it's characters like Cheng Pu and Yu Jin that should already be added in the DW series. Their appearance in DW is overdue.

They are very very important characters.

Thanks for telling me that...hopefully I can get the courage to ask the clerk about preordering it. The last game I preordered (Guitar Hero: WoR) I put $5 down on...is that a preorder option for this game? (Guitar Hero 5 I just paid the whole $59.99 down)

Another question that kind of relates to preordering: Is it necessary for a game that can be preordered to not be in the "Coming Soon" list? (I think that's kind of a problem for me because I like the visual confirmation of the game being expected on it's release date, that's what keeps me from trying to preorder it)

First off, who the hell wants Xiahou Mao in the game? Not sure that I've seen a single person with him on their wishlist. Second, spare me. If you think Liao Hua is that boring and/or unimportant, I question whether you've ever actually read ROTK before making such ignorant claims. Especially since you think Cheng Pu is so much better. Fail.

This exactly.
10 is a bit overboard.
They would not only have to add the character.
The would have to add...
1. A possible new moveset.
2. If they are in Kingdom mode, a whole level for them.
3. If they added a character, they would have to add a conversation with other characters. So they would have to get some of their VA's back.

5 sounds reasonable.

1. Li Dian/Cao Zhen
2. Liao Hua
3. Anyone later era for Wu
4. Wen Yang
5. Yuan Shu

That would be perfect. :heart:

Thanks garnix and that's a new map as well. It does seem hopefu that story mode has different maps than conquest.

Edit: As for dlc characters, for Jin its up to grabs between Wen Yang, Du Yu and Yang Hu. For Wu I would like to be Lu Kang since he was the one by being alive, no major scale invasions were launched at Wu. (Provided there was Jia Chong who were adamant at not invading Wu and that Yang Hu wouldn't try.)

The more i think about character DLC's, the more i wish, that Koei releases them NOT like that. Especially the characters, which could have a good story. Characters for the "Other"-faction are an exception. I even mostly wish characters for that faction.
An exception would be also, that the DLC character, let's say for example,......hmmmmmm....., yeah, Cao Hong, could be automatically involved in ALL story parts in the game the time you have downloaded him from the PSN-Store and installed him into the game. The "generic"-Cao Hong should be completely replaced by the new and unique Cao Hong, which we had downloaded and installed. And together with the download, there should be also story-parts for him, which are of course also involved into the game. And then, there are even a new voice, an assigned EX-weapon, a new map for Chronicle/Conquest-mode....and and and.
Whoa, the more i think about that, the more i believe, that it would be not only too costly for Koei, but even impossible.

Edit: @ dancingswan: Wow, we had just the same thought.

If this is Wan Castle (not doubting it) then its the biggest version of the stage yet. Very pleasing since Wan Castle got crappier and smaller every game!

So is anyone else wondering how they will end up handling the Death of Sima Shi without having Wen Yang on the scene? Will they steal one of Wen Yang's crowning achievement and give it to someone else or just have Sima Shi vanish for some stupid reason?
For one, its not as if Wen Yang physically killed Sima Shi, as in physically stabbing him through the heart. I understand that Wen Yang's moment helped cause the stress that flared Shi's eye tumor but it was already an existing illness
Exactly, Sima Shi's death should be attributed more towards his eye tumor and the timing of Wen Yang's attack. Should have any other report came in to Sima Shi that an enemy force had suddenly attack and hadn't been repelled yet, it would most likely have the same effect, because that's in essence what caused the eye to pop out. Wen Yang did not kill Sima Shi, his actions were an indirect cause for the death.

But the fighting the Wei officers thing was impressive to say the least. Should also point out that his "steel whip" was a rod akin to Huang Gai's famous weapon, as not many know that.

Sad to see that renders haven't been released for Wei Yan and Pang Tong, but I'm pleased with the ones we got. By the way, in what was implied to be Wei Yan's screenshot (if not Guan Suo's), anyone notice how big those forearms are? :wub: And is that a vulture on his left shoulder?

With Lu Bu's new chin size they've made him seem older than he looked in previous games, it's only fair. He was older than most of the gam'e cast with exceptions from Huang Gai, Sun Jian, Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao, Zhang Jiao, and Cao Cao. The screenshot where he was holding the soldier by the face was priceless.

I'm also wondering what stage Sun Quan's cutscene is taking place in. Very foggy and a bit morbid, and to add you can clearly see his laugh lines (or whatever they're called). Maybe we're seeing an older Sun Quan? Thought how his secondary was the tonfas is a very nice touch to last game's characterization, who basically ignored Sun Ce's death.

i can agree with you and your right about being a bit ambitious with 10 characters, i'd pretty much welcome any characters as DLC provded they are not mystics or Zuo Ci


if obscure characters were to be added then i'd probably say

1: Dong Bai
2: Lu Lingqi
3: Sun Yi/Zhu Yi
4: Zhu Ling
