I got a question because I have yet seen Guan Yu do the same move as Lu Meng. I could have missed a picture does any one have it? IDGAF about the icons because they really can't make different icons for each weapon honestly, I also don't care about stance and switch attack but few people state they share same movesets and I just want to see a picture that I missed or information source. Also was the information that nineseven post and fai's post that were I'n Japanese translated? Edited by Reverie, Thu Feb 17, 2011 12:48 am.

I'm in UK and have a friend who lives in the East Pacific time zone - he's 5 hours behind GMT. It varies though since it's a large area... Around 5 hours behind, anyway!

We've read that people with the same weapon class only differ in the two different musou attacks they have and their EX attack. So if that's true, and it definitely seems to be the case, then strings and charge attacks will be the same across classes. |

I'm Pacific Time...... In the U.S, I don't know time zones very well, just the U.S's... Haha, and its 3:47pm right now. Anyways, OT: It just seems weird that there's no more new characters, and I know we've been very fortunate to get so many, but theres still another scan to come, and in every scan up until it first began, we've been getting new characters...... Oh well. |

Ugh, Guan Suo. Know who he looks like? Keiji from Sengoku Basara. Dude's a dead ringer, I swear. I'm even less excited about Guan Suo than I am about Lian Shi, and only marginally more than Bao San Niang. |

Cao Pi looks...pretty damn cool in white. Also, making one sword black and the other one white is a cool touch. And those rings on Blue Dragon...it would be awesome if they move around when Guan Yu swings it. |

yeah same here - looking forward to seeing the Wei guys in action - will Xu Huang be included despite him not being in this weeks famitsu? Seems strange to not have him in but he hasn't officially been revealed so unsure =\ |

Xu Huang just has to make it. I mean we've already gotten a glimpse of him already in the early trailer. |

Yeah, Xu Huang's gonna be in one way or another. I'm a little tired of KOEI using "OMG JIN" as an excuse to take shortcuts elsewhere. Yeah, Jin won, but the fact is, the majority of people are going to prefer the main Three Kingdoms. Heck, I bet more people would want to play as Yuan Shu than Jin (myself included). |

You think I'd rather play as some guy in 'Other' who would probably be given a 'Dao' moveset than a whole new kingdom of characters, many with brand new and unique weapons? Hmmm

There's no way Yuan Shu would be given a Dao. He's not the type. And its not as if Jin is chock full of weapon classes that no one else shares. Deng Ai's drill spear (bizarre but awesome) and Guo Huai's tubular machine gun (FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL FAIL) are the only ones that are unshared. Edited by WhiteHorseRide, Thu Feb 17, 2011 1:20 am.

Zhong Hui's floating swords. Wang Yuan Ji's throwing knives (I know they're shared, but we've never played with them) We're getting a whole new cast, all with new stories, and you think I'd rather have Yuan Shu added to the game? I just think that's a bit of a joke and brings nothing to the table... |

You must be joking if you think Wang Yuan Ji(as much as I love her) brings more to the story than Yuan Shu. But yeah, OMG JIN somewhat works for me, Im loving them. |

Yuan Shu = some guy? NoAnd you mean the same Dao that Sima Zhao uses? Unique weapons being the drill spear, flying swords and hand cannon. Not really as many as we'd like for a new Kingdom is it? While I don't necessarily agree with LCoJD, your assessment was a tad unfair. |

I am fairly sure Zhong Hui's floating swords of fail are shared by someone else. Not that it matters. Also, your reasoning is of course completely flawed. As there is nothing stopping Koei from giving Yuan Shu an exotic weapon class. Secondly, he brings a lot to the table, mainly, a lot of character interactions and fleshes out the early era of the three kingdoms nicely as he was so influential and involved with so many characters that are present NOW.

I know he's not some guy, I'm a history student thanks I was being flippant.Regardless, I would pick Jin over one new character. This isn't a stuffy history book (go read RotTK if you want that) it's a game for entertainment purposes. Sima Zhao, Wang Yuanji e.t.c e.tc are going to be fan favourites more so than Yuan Shu. It's not like Yuan Shao has ever been the highlight of DW is it? Time and time again, Koei has made a conscious decision to leave Yuan Shu out. You might not, but I understand why.

That has got to be the most overused and flat argument a person can bring up. Does it never occur to some people that maybe, just maybe, some people actually want a somewhat historically focused action hack and slash game based on the Three Kingdoms? |

I'm not trying to start the whole history vs fantasy debate, because God knows we've seen enough of that already here; I just take exception to that particular argument.Please enlighten me |

As I just explained. He isn't the sort of character Koei wants to add. They'd rather add pretty-boys and big breasted female's - one's that will become fangirl/boy favourites. Jokes aside, you call the history v entertainment argument flat, but it's TRUE. Games get an 'artistic license'. |

Stop with this silly 'entertainment' argument. The very appeal of this series that got most of us hooked and kept people coming back for more despite its embarrassing stagnation as an actual game series is that is rooted in history. I could play any dozens of fictional hack n slashers out there and still not got any satisfaction out of them despite them being no less technically in-depth in game mechanics than Dynasty Warriors. Sima Zhao and co are going to be more fan favorites than guys like Yuan Shu? You know the problem with that argument? The guys who are into for pure entertainment aren't going to be able to tell the difference between two names of which they know absolutely nothing about. Ask a casual fan (who would have little knowledge outside of what the games show) around the time Dynasty Warriors 6 came out who they would want between Yuan Shu and Sima Zhao, and you aren't really going to get an answer as they would simply be names with no visuals for them. Subsequently, much like the Dao comment you made, there is absolutely nothing, I repeat NOTHING, that keeps Yuan Shu from being given any of the more popular designs that are in this game. There was no *rule* out there that said Sima Zhao had to look like he does now, nor Deng Ai or anyone else. They could have all easily been made to look different, that's on Koei. They don't have a preset look that is required and neither does Yuan Shu. The 'entertainment' argument I get from some fans is beyond hollow, here's why. If one follows simply for the aesthetic appeals, then it makes no difference to them who a cool design goes to, whether it goes to a fictional character or someone who's actually *important*. Adding in important characters and giving *them* cool designs is the best middle ground because it keeps everyone happy. Those who like influential people are given someone they wanted to see, and those who are more visual oriented and casual still get what they want which is cool designs. That's the only way to keep everyone happy. |
