The reason why Koei's games don't get much publicity in other countries, especially Western ones, is because of the huge negative rep that the Warriors titles have garnered. Quite simply, Western audiences don't want to see another 'mindless, repetitive hack 'n slash that hasn't changed in the past 10 years', although us KW fans know that is a very biased accusation. Don't you pretty much do the same stuff over & over in many of today's games? I just think it's because of the whole Ancient Chinese setting. I do hope that we get a demo of DW7 on the PSN, but I don't really see that happening...or maybe in the first week of March, perhaps? Possibly end of this month? Also...All I know is that Guan Yu's move set won't be copied, because no one else uses Blue Dragon! (And I think Guan Ping will be getting his big sword back ;p) And that's all I need to know, 'cause Guan Yu is my most favorite. Edited by TrevorxTravesty, Sun Feb 13, 2011 6:32 pm.

I can fully understand where you are coming from with this statement. However, it's no better than playing a mindless First Person Shooter game. All that can really be said about the Warrior Series games is that it's repetitive, and a slew of other negative things. But the main problem is that most western critics fail to ID both the positives and negatives out of a game that's something other than your standard First Person Shooter. Another main and poof excuse is that they tend to give bad scores to these games simply because they don't have no prior knowledge about these games. Honestly, why the hell review a game, based on an era, you have no knowledge about? That right there makes absolute NO sense at all!

I remember the Dw6 demo for pc i downloaded, i took me 3 hours to do one battle as it was soooooo slow, thank god it was Lu Xun... But so worth it ;D. Hopefully the demo will be like that but alot better, all i need is one battle to hold me over for a month :).. Demo's are pretty simple things |

I know what you mean. And I wasn't saying I personally feel this way about Koei games, that's just the basic Western concept of these games. The game already gets a bad review right when it is announced xD Oh, and I think it's also because of America's love of guns that makes FPS games very popular >.> (I'm getting BulletStorm myself Then again, I am very open-minded when it comes to games...except Sports games..Never in my life! )

In all honesty DW may be a hack and slash game but it's no more guilty of being the same and repetitive as any FIFA football game or any first person shooter game series. At least with the DW series there are some noticible changes. You want to know which series I think is the worst in terms of repetitiveness? The Raw vs Smackdown series. |

Exactly. And at the same time, if DW changed too much, people would complain even more (the fans, I mean). We like DW for what it is, I've always found it fun and engaging - it's a colourful game. Trying to find an original game these days is almost impossible (same with anything really) but if you can't try and improve on what's already done, what the hell are you supposed to do? |

I full well know that. I was just touching on the aspect is all. But who knows... maybe a demo is needed to change peoples' minds about what Dynasty Warriors Seven will be about.Hopefully, they can ditch the whole ten minute time limit... that was a pain of a condition to deal with.

people make demos to not only show off their product, but to market it too. i would have never even bought a DW game if it weren't for the "JamPack" demos! and i wouldn't own half the games i do if it weren't for demos! they have every reason to make a demo, and they obviously have one prepared being that they just had a demo day in Japan. half the people that are hating on the game right now are going to buy it anyways, and they know it.

I can't imagine Wei Yan and Zhang Fei sharing the same weapon move set... It just doesn't seem right.... Wei Yan is actually portrayed as a buff, but really small monstrous warrior, and Zhang Fei is kind of big actually. |

^ This I was going to say that too, since demo's can help you decide hether or not you like the game, if you play the demo and don't like it, you won't buy it. But if there's NO DEMO at all, people won't even bother wasting 60 bucks just in case they don't like it. And even if people buy it they can return it if they don't like it anyways, so I find the demo good for advertising, I personally didn't find myself interested in Hokuto until the demo, and it was quite fun Strikeforce was okay, I didn't like the super human abilities sadly.

I understand what you mean. I am fully aware that demos are the sole purpose for representing there games, for those to take it for a test drive. But not all games can pump out demos. Watching videos of a game only does so much for someone, I mean you have your "DAMN, that was HOT!" moments, but other than that, that is all a video can do. Also, most companies make it a goal to have a demo ready for there events, knowing that people are going to want to get alittle peace of what they can expect. |

Will never happen, because Lu Bu will always be unqiue, well, IMO anyways, since Lu Bu is usually the best and most OP character available (less DW6 where I found him pretty weak). Wei Yan having Lu Bu's moveset, just not right X.x By the looks of Wei Yan right now, I can sort of imagine Zhang Fei's attacks, since he is fierce, size doesn't really matter

Yeah, Lu Bu is an unique character, hence Wei Yan and Zhang Fei are not. |

sorta brought in videos from outa nowhere there. and yes not all companies can pump out demos, but koei can i have, so why don't they give us a yellow turban level to try out, or play Hu Lao Gate up until we have to face Lu Bu? |

Mostly in the US gamers are ignorant along with american culture. So many times I have been playing SW and my roomate will come watch and make fun of the Japanese setting, or how he hates anime looking games..... He is just dumb and if its not call of duty, most americans dont care. They want giant meatheads blowing sht up! Soooo lame. On topic I want Gan Ning to have the dual daggers just cuz its unique |

I'm not saying that. Everyone knows KOEI likes Lu Bu a lot more than other chars, his weapon has it's own category anyways. Either way, Wei Yan will probably have SOMEONE's moveset, if it upsets you that much. |

Lu Bu's weapon should be in with Guan Yu, and Lu Meng's weapons. |

I think Dynasty Warriors 7 demo is a big chance, even if it's Japan PSN Store only. ![]() Because *DW Strikeforce had a PS3 demo on PSN. *FOTNS Ken's Rage got a exclusive demo on PSN and XBL in the west. Dynasty Warriors 7 is their #1 major release this quarter, I think a demo would make sense to maximize marketing and profits. These cutscenes, features and stuff will wow even the crowds that weren't interested in DW.

With Guan Yu maybe, but sharing the same class as Lu Meng is insulting.

You make a strong and vaild point. Only time will tell the tale if a Dynasty Warriors Seven Demo will surface. ![]() I myself wouldn't mind getting an early taste of what Dynasty Warriors Seven has in store for us. Koei would benefit from it in the end.

Beat me to it... I am just absolutely excited by this game. One question though. In conquest mode do we have allies with us? AI allies I mean. It seems in most conquest mode screenshots the mini map shows just a sea of red and no blue. Seems very weird if we can't fight with allies. Other than the panda bears of course I must say, Sun Jian looks fantastic. A very nice blend between earlier dw games and 6. Glad they toned down the spiky hair but I am still happy they kept his gray hair. And lol at Quan covering his sisters mouth. I wonder if she said something flirty to Liu Bei or was it inappropriate? lol |
