At first Jin looked cool. Then as time went on they looked even cooler until Zhoug Hui joined. Knowing his rebellion this was a questionable choice. Then Xiahou Ba, this dumbfounds me even more, now with this knowledge that 35 characters are are playable in kingdom while 37 are not, I see those 37 forming an anti-koei league.

Game still looks good but as a forum we tend to focus more on the negatives since they're so easy to point out.

I suppose there is good news: The weapon DLC will cost at around $1.21 a piece (According to the currency converter I just used).

It could be possible or she'll just have three stars with it. We don't know until we get more info.

Now that looks a lot like Yue Ying's old scythe. This may be a hunch, but do you think Koei might decide to release previous weapons (and possibly old attack strings) as downloadable content? I wouldn't be surprised if they did that for the sake of their fans in Japan.

How do they execute those different types of musous? For example Sun Ce had one where he did a simple upper cut that caused a explosion upwards. Another he was punching all around him and the last was last one was like slashes and punching and hitting at the same time. I know I sound crazy but anyone care to elaborate for me?

That's gaming forums in general. You can't win. Happy with the changes? You're a sheep. Unhappy with something? You're an ungrateful whiner. Which one would bother you more?

I'm personally not happy with a few questionable decisions as far as Kingdom Mode goes, but then again, it's my own damn fault for actually thinking Koei was capable of doing it without showing blatant favoritism. As if I didn't get enough of the love for Xiahou Dun in the last 6 games... now we have an entire KINGDOM mode focused on him.

It's amazing, that with each installation, Koei finds a new way to make me downright hate that guy.

I'm definitely playing for Conquest Mode, though...

Also that as an epic quote Chibi. Forget about THE THREE KINGDOMS! THIS IS THE ONE KINGDOM THAT WINS!

So the overused characters are...... Sima Zhao, Xiahou Dun, Sun Ce or Sun Quan, and Zhao Yun and Zhuge Liang.

At this point, I'm starting to think that it's what Koei wanted all along. To make us believe that the real meat and bones is in Conquest/Chronicle mode.

Wait a minute . . . so are these weapons going to have a category of their own? Because there was mention of certain weapon lists having more than ten . . .

Yes its a new Type of weapon available. So it'll go right in the Weapon list with its own series of 10-11 levels.

I think you guys are not looking at it from Koei's perspective. This is like a fresh start for them, this is their chance to tell the same story in a different way.

I think Koei is tired of seeing the same characters in the same stages. Of course Ma Chao gets Tong Gate, of course Guan Ping is supposed to be in Fan Castle but not this time around. This is a video game not a historical account. They are free to change things around.

If every character had their own stage it would be hard for newcomers to have a connections with certain characters. Koei handpicked whos getting a stage in order to maximize their story.

Thank you for pointing that out. Guess I wanted to be more negative than necessary.

Still though, my opinion of Jin went from 90 percent to 55 being the attention whores they're being currently.

I want to wish that those neglected characters get 3 gaiden stages while the rest get only 2 or 1 but that would be unfair.

From the stream, looks like the DW6 costume pack is 95MB.

Thanks Shadow! I'm most pleased with this. ^_^

I can't wait to buy all of the weapons! Now I can really care less about cloned movesets!

Hurry March 29th!

I guess the game rests on the kingdom mode stages being FULLY playable in Conquest. If not, a garbage kingdom mode & no free mode sounds like a pretty shitty DW game because I don't care to play 2 minute long stages over and over in conquest.

Some news about the DW6 costume pack: Don't expect any of the new characters to get anything from the set. The WOZ outfits are in, though.

Before I begin let it be known that this is my personal OPINION, not something that should be fought over for pages on end.
Just from reading the last couple of pages, the excitement for the game has lessened greatly for me. I personally don't see why Koei insists on adding female characters if they are NOT part of the story whatsoever! Heck some of them didn't even get an honorable mention or irrelevant cutscene. This irritates me more than anything because the female characters, most of them anyways, are my favorite ones!!! Seriously you have TWO females in the entire game that have story modes?? And SSX I believe only has one level...WTH KOEI!

Yea I know some of you might think I'm blowing this out of proportion, but to be frank, I don't think I am. Yes I know they all must have some sort of story in Conquest mode, but why do you have characters play multiple levels in Kingdom mode when the ones that didn't get any spotlight could have easily replaced the ones that far too much?!?

And it's not even a question of just the females (I'm stressing them more than the males simply because I'm biased). Almost every single male character, as well as female, could have had at least ONE level, I mean they gave Xu Zhu and Pang Tong levels for heaven's sake!! I honestly don't know what they were playing at, but if they have something in store for this game, such as add-ons, then they better reveal them soon.

On the bright side, if there must be one, I am happy with how the cutscenes in general have turned out, they do add a lot to the overall play of the game. Also, even though this is a no-brainer, the soundtracks featured in the game are just amazing.

And? Your point?

Koei mentioned they were going to go with a more historically accurate account on the kingdom mode- last I checked, Xiahou Dun didn't have **** to do with Fan Castle. His ordeal with Guan Yu was somewhat settled before that- at least I think.

So, basically, they flat out lied when they said they're going more "historically/novelly accurate".

Yes, I give them a point for experimenting, now they'll hopefully look at the reaction and realize that should have thought a little more clearly about not giving Cao Ren or Xu Huang their stage of ultimate glory.

Could have been some good character development for Xu Huang, or Koei's chance to bring Cao Ren into a more favorable light. But no, let's try something "new".

As if we didn't see this in DW5 already.

Well that is the good news about the weapons. Maybe we'll have about 45 overall. At least Koei knew what to do with the dlc I'll give them that.

A dollar a weapon seems sweet now, but lets see how much weapons they intend on adding and if they really do include a whole new moveset.

Also, I think it goes unsaid that no DLC weapon will be an EX weapon, so that means they will not be having EX attacks. Now, if im wrong and they in fact come out and say "hey this weapon is for Yue Ying, new moveset and new EX attack", then I won't know what to say.

It's understandable why so many people are upset about the game's new Kingdom Mode. While the storyline itself isn't as generic as the one in DW4, I feel that it focuses more on certain generals while ignoring the rest. Of course, that's bound to rile up half of the fan base who were counting on seeing their favorite character contribute to their own respective kingdoms. The unique stages in Conquest Mode seem to serve as a remedy for this issue. However, I feel that this solution might not be enough to satisfy us fans who want a fully satisfying scenario for every playable character.
