Honestly there's still debates going on about whether or not Diao Chan was real.

Not from what I've read. I thought her name is fake, but there was a maiden whom both shared relations with, though Wang Yun and Lu Bu only plotted to kill him for ambition, and Lu Bu didn't really care about feelings but power.

Personally, I like how the novel and Koei does it more. Lu Bu already feels like such a blank slate cheat character, giving him a little personality in the form of a woman he cares for makes him seem slightly more human.

The only thing contested about Diao Chan is her name and most of her story; but there was a maid of Dong Zhuo who Lu Bu had an affair with.

I honestly don't care if a character is real or not pretty much over 90% of characters in video games are fictional or made up anyway

I doubt the characters that are even real could ever be aware that they've been depicted in such a way especially poor Zhang He...unless KOEI had a change of heart for his design ;)

also even IF she was ficticious, thats not the point.
its been said about 24343 times, that dw ist based more on the novel and not on the history. and in the novel diao chan is important.

hey i'm guessing that all characters have more than one musou attack but are they pre-chosen i.e. your choice of weapon determines your musou attack or is it like each weapon comes with 3-4 musou attacks but u may only pick up to 2

Am I the only one that likes Zhange He :blush: granted he gets fruitier with each installment but I like him nonetheless. I do hope they tone down the fruitiness a bit though. I really liked his persona in 3 and even 4...cept the Ballet dancing :sad:

I personally don't like the path Wei Yan went down :unsure: I hope they make him a bit more human this time around.

As I understand it, each character has two Musou; one individual to the character which is used with the EX weapon everytime, and one aerial which I guess is weapon specific.

Guan Suo being fictional is extrapolation from Guan Yu's biography in the Chen Shou record where it briefly notes Guan Ping and Guan Xing as his sons, with no mention of any other.

Also as a further note, Bao Sanniang and Mei Sanniang are not the same person. Mei Sanniang is a character made up by Koei for Kessen II. Bao Sanniang is Guan Suo's wife and comes from folklore.

Each character has a unique musou to "their" weapon. So Zhao Yun has a unique spear musou no one else has, Zhang Liao has a unique musou that no one else has with his halberds.

Then each character has a musou with their second weapon, which is a generic musou that any character can use by equipping that weapon.

So go ahead and use that weapon, but switch to your EX weapon for a better musou.

I'm pretty sure both are individual to characters, and only some characters have aerial musous, while some have two ground ones. Like, say, Xu Zhu, I doubt he will have an aerial musou, while Zhao Yun probably will.

I really would have dealt with this screwball much better if basically the remaining info until release wasn't bad news. I was pretty excited for this game, but that totally killed the excitement if true. The most promising character from that list is Liu Chan... let that one sink in for a bit.

Hahahahahahaha. So true.

Edit: I think the list is real. It just has that feel to it. Unlike the first rumor which I never believed, this one is simply different. Its already got some things right (despite being somewhat obvious things) and it just doesn't seem like a list someone would make up. I mean who would predict a roster that has Wei with 13 characters? And Lady Bu is so random that it just seems legitimate, especially after Seraphil pulled up the place where the inspiration for her could have been drawn from.

Thats kinda sad. I bet Xiahou Ba was meant to be the final big reveal, but look at the rage that was had when he was revealed. Suddenly Liu Chan doesn't sound so bad now does he history buffs? :hmmm:

Hmm, Lady Bu aka Bu Furen as a potential new female add? Didn't see that coming. I hope she's got a decent personality and a cool weapon! ^_^
No more husband followers, please! I think from reading Bao Sanniang's summary she's like, all of the "man-chasing female" Dynasty Warriors will ever need..

I kinda wondered about Pang De since Zhang Liao still has his weapons, ah well..

i love his persona i could do without the dancing except for that one cutscene where he makes his soldiers dance before they can report to him haha hilarious also though he may be a lil fruity personality diversity is a good thing better than all the other "protect my lord" and serious acting guys haha the battlefield is his stage, his allies his audience, and cutting down his enemies is his performance

and lie bei 7 no i didn't i just wrote that and checked the last 5 pages haha unless i missed something :lol:

If Pang De isn't in DW7, I hope they add him in DLC along with Yu Jin fast.

Zhang Liao doesn't have HIS weapons, he has weapons he used in the one game he was included in. In that game, he was slow and the moveset was awful. In DW6, Zhang Liao was much faster and flashier with them. I always pictured Zhang Liao with hook swords, so I guess these suit him somewhat well.

Let's picture Pang De. He's from Liang, where they were fabled to be wild riders. Give him brown battle robes with blue and gray armor, a scrubby beard with long hair and a brown turban/headband holding his hair back. For a weapon, give him a SHORT SPEAR AND MACE. Such a unique pairing, I think he could use it well. Or even a longsword and mace. One used to attack further opponants and the other for breaking those that got close.

Hey guys, ive made this table of returning and new characters, if ive missed anyone, please tell me so i can edit it.

We now have 60 characters in total, without the inclusion of Pang De and Zuo Ci, and we now have this rumour going around about Guan Suo etc, i didnt include them in the overall list.

Posted Image

I just have this feeling that Wen Yan will be added, so i included him in the Jin section.

EDIT: Zoom in so you can see the list better.

Yeah because there was no Yu Jin. So its not shocking he won't be back since Yu Jin has been confirmed as generic. Still, I liked him.

Because we all see that Pang De has the potential to be much more than he was. Fan Castle, his times serving Ma Teng, Ma Chao and Zhang Lu, the conflict against Dong Zhuo all prove that. Also, Pang De had quite some battles and a good moveset.

Oh, and frankly, at those who said KOEI takes more basis in the novel than in history, the novel is a mere excuse for Koei's own bias. I don't see Liu Bei dumb as a door in the game. I don't see lazy and coward Liu Chan. Koei has its own bias. The novel is only one of their basis, as well as history
