Edit: Maybe I'm wrong o.O he does look darker blue though.

Xiahou Dun at Fan Castle? Now I really am depressed..
So, he still can't get over Guan Yu, but Xu Huang has more story behind it.

and Cao Ren =/

Honestly Xu Huang as Part 1 with Cao Ren Part 2 would've been so much better..

I..what? No. Fan Castle is Ren's time to shine! Not Dun, AGAIN. This is kinda upsetting. Dun's awesome, but good lord...

He did off for a while, then continue with Chronicle, then Wei. I missed Dian Wei' dying scene as my computer froze in the midst of it.....

Okay some of koei's character choices for these battles are just a no no. Dun instead of Ren at Fan Castle is just no.

man I can't believe how atrocious the character favoritism is in story mode. Xiahou Dun in both parts of Fan Castle? REALLY KOEI? Starting to reconsider my purchase now because of this nonsense in all the kingdom story modes.

Guess they had to drop the ball somewhere!

can anyone give the screenshot of the other color costumes when in other faction?

EX: SSX in green, Guan Yu in blue, xiahou ba(maybe), sima Yi, etc....
Oh, that reminds me also did Jia xu have other color when still under zhang xiu, well he's already purple not blue, so that makes sense he joined dong zhuo before

Not meant to be off topic but wow this thing happened again, it's like DW 6 tragedy, people really excited when DW 6 will be released back there, but then it full of disappoinment and complain when the release date was near, and that's also happen to DW 7..

You're going to reconsider purchasing DW7 because the game doesn't allow you to play as your favorite characters in your initial run throughs of story mode stages that will ultimately allow you the freedom to select any character you want to use after you've unlocked those stages for conquest mode?

If that's the general sentiment I'm getting... I feel bad for Koei. DW8 will probably never be released outside of Japan if that's the case.

It won't be near as bad because to a point at least DW7 carries through on some of its promises.

The only real failure so far has been Kingdom Mode, and its not bad its just bad character choices.

The story in Kingdom mode seems great but the character choices for the some of the stages are awful. Still a day one buy for me.

Will you all just quit whining for jebus' sake!? Every character will get their moment to shine within the legend stages of Conquest Mode. Ok, they didn't fit everything into Kingdom Mode, get over it!

That's not the point Fray, the point is they seemed to obviously neglected character's main moments, they told us they were trying to be more historically accurate and build a true cinematic experience, but they've flat out shoved a bunch of characters out the door and made 3 characters primarily the main feature of all 23 stages of Kingdom Mode.

Wait till Shu's campaign mode, Zhao Yun will make up 8 of the 25 missions.

Boy, I wonder if Zhao Yun is forced to play in Yi Ling stage? Gosh, no more, the poor guy just don't want to get involve in Yi Ling story x.x. Give it to Ma Chao, Ma Dai, Xing Cai, whatever please.

The thing that gets me is this was their excuse to not do much on the combat like you know clones and what not. well maybe not from them but from many people on this forum it was "We have got 62 characters, kingdom mode, and freemode plus, and I'n kingdom mode everyone gets to shine."

Now it's good to know free mode is in conquest mode as shadow stated that xia pi was there but was it a full fledge battle? Then I must say did any see cutscenes I'n conquest mode because then that really "F" up most of the fan favorites I'n sonquest mode.

I will admit, I'll be annoyed if Sanniang gets a stage :P

Nah, Liu Bei and the Oath brothers along with Zhuge liang will get more treatment than Zilong.

I believe I'm on part 3 of the stream, so I'm going to catch up.

I watched Part 4 thinking it was where I left off, but I guess not since I never saw the player use Zhong Hui yesterday.

That music that plays during the last level is just delicious!

Also during the ending what was that clip showing all the rivalries in flame about? Zhang Liao VS Gan Ning, Deng Ai VS Jiang Wei, etc. Part of the ending or like a flashback? KOEI has really outdone itself this time. :bowdown:

Tbh I have been wondering for a while how it would work if all 62 characters had their own "spotlight" in Kingdoms mode, it would be basically like a huge demo mode because you'd switch characters every 20 minutes, and so from that perspective you can see that not having characters shoved out would also inevitably lead to problems. So in the end, it seems like a lose-lose situation for Koei (besides, there would've been endless complaints anyway, about whatever stuff pisses off any fan that is vocal enough to post it somewhere).

I will say however that some of the character choices do seem a bit odd, especially when a certain stage is of a battle that was "about" them in the book or history.

From a overall plot in a game related perspective however I can understand why Wu would end after Yi Ling: the focus even in the novel after that switched on Shu vs Cao-Wei, Shu vs Jin-Wei and Jin consuming Wei, Wu ran themselves into the ground on their own after Sun Quan's death and basically toppled to Jin without putting up a fight, and even if, what would it have been, a huge timeskip before the previous stage, making it incomprehensible for anyone who isn't into this stuff?

I'm not really worried about this however, I'm into it for conquest mode mostly (and that one should hopefully deliver), after the outrage was over about clones and missing story modes in DW6 you could appreciate that the problems were entirely different (wonky camera, stupid officer power balancing, renbu, lack of moves due to the new system, repetitiveness unlocking everything)

I'm okay if the rest come up from DLC, but to be honest, it better be free, because the game already expensive and it's not like what they've told us.

To be frank, I more interested in Samurai Warriors for the deep story and stuff. But DW7 attracted me in the last few days, because:
-The uniqueness of Seamless gameplay and how the story line gonna be going on
-Long gameplay of story
-More stages, more details

But, these few things really makes me lazy to buy now:
-Clone moves everywhere, like nobody is unique anymore
-Disappearance of characters in story mode (not being playable, etc)

That's all. I will consider twice before buying this.

Wu story didn't end at Yi Ling.
That's what I understood in this thread, unfortunately I couldn't find the link to the live feeds so I can't really check, but even if it ends with He Fei I don't remember anything major about Wu after that which could connect to the latter Wu period and the battles against Jin, it wasn't about Wu in the novel anymore at all.
