But I Do Have a feeling they wont have!
Koei Only Choose people they like or is famous
Example DaQiao I Bet she will have one
Zhen Ji would have looked SO MUCH better in the Chinese dress than Bao. Sadly Zhen is such a wonderful character in the female category and she is so under rated :( but she did get a special DLC costume.
On to the Qiao issue....if Da was really that much more popular, wouldn't she have just gooten that special DLC Xiao got instead?

In the case of Zhen Ji and Lian Shi, they are already wearing Chinese dresses. Not modern ones but still Chinese dresses.

Is it just me or has the slowdown patch for 360 kinda... imploded on itself? I hope that gets fixed along with the DLC bug when that comes out.

Glad we're getting that Zhenji costume though :wub: Is SSX's ROTK one already out for those who didn't preorder? I know Japan got it.
Isnt that a free dlc?
ROTK Ssx and ZhaoYun's outfits

And I Am Glad Too Zhen Ji Outfit it out and There is a new weapon ^^
Are they? I've never seen them on PSN.

Last I heard they were up only briefly last summer and only for xbox via a bug and got taken down like the next day.

A shame, I'd kill to get a hold of that Zhao Yun outfit.

The ROTK SSX and Zhao Yun outfits I know definitely came as a pre-order bonus (with DW1 Lu Xun and Guan Yu) if you ordered it from Gamestop for PS3. Whether or not they showed up afterward, I'm not sure. I don't think they have for PSN either D:

I thought they would've came out with the rest of the DW1 costumes.

That's what I thought tbh

All those costumes, the Zhenji, Yinping, Xingcai and Zhang Bao one, I thought they were all like strictly Japan exclusive.

I'll believe it when I see it myself on the store, I'm still doubtful.

Hmmmmmm........looks legit i guess *scratches chin*. But nonetheless, the XMB-themes were stated for monthes ago and still aren't there, are simply forgotten. So yeah, seeing them in the store and i'll believe it *says this with a bit of sarcasm and joking*.

I'll go back to the Weapons DLC topic.
Actually, with the way XL is made (just IF scenarios, with no link between each other), I'm wondering...
How hard would it be to have new characters as DLC ?

What about celebrating Japanese DW8XL release on PS4 with a few new DLC characters ?
This could solve the "who will get the DLC weapon" topic. Since new characters could have new weapons as their EX.

I know they said a few years ago that this won't happen. But they may change their mind, right ?

There isn't anything hard about implementing characters as DLC. It's just that it's extremely pointless the way they designed DW7 and 8. It' s a bit better now, but the only way it'd even be remotely worthwhile is if the characters are bundled with weapons. Otherwise you're paying for another avatar with only a few unique moves. A unique set of voice clips wouldn't justify it any further.

Plus in order to appease those of you who whine over duplicates and clones, would require modifying all instances of that character appearing in existing scenarios. And that's a lot of work for a cosmetic addition.

Well, depends on how it's done.

I mean, they can rush them, and just add a new, unique character design, with preset voice, and nothing special about him.
Or a new character, with intercations with some others, with a dedicated voice actor and personnality. And make one or two cutscene for him, with a new stage setup.

(modifying all instance of that character appearing is not a problem, they did it well in DW7 Empires.)

Then they'll charge it 5€, and everybody will still buy it.
Because "he is badass" or "he is cute" or "her booooobs !".

They already charged 4€ for new MS in GW3, so...yeah...why not ?...

@Daosiying - Not really relevant to DLC but this is why I want weapon switch gone, it creates a system of every character being an avatar you can slap any weapon (generalised to suit everyone) on. They don't feel unique and EX isn't enough to change that.

But anyway, tbh I think Koei should focus more on actually bringing out an up-to-standard game in the first place, instead of making $100 worth of DLC for every half-finished game they release. Just my opinion.

Empires doesn't have preset scenarios and stories. It's easy to plug in anyone there because it's randomized. The same cannot be said for a game with pre-set scenarios where NPCs can speak and appear in cutscenes across more than 50 scenarios/stages.

Never say never ;)
It's not even a rumor.

There is just the fact that people keep complaining about DLC weapons not having EX owner.
So I suggested characters DLC, coming with new weapons as their EX.
This way, DLC weapons could have an owner, and Koei will still be able to release DLC weapons without everyone wondering who will get it in the next installment.

Anyway, I'm personally fine with weapons DLC being only secondary weapons, or CAW weapons.

But some can't imagine that. Which is why I suggested it.

But yeah, we all know it's not a good idea, considering that Koei will probably not make something special on DLC characters, but just keep them as new avatars with nothing differenciating them from generic general aside from their design.

The main draw for people nabbing expansions like XL aint the new stages, it aint the new music, it aint the new Ex moves or whatever else gets tweaked - its the new characters. New characters get revealed and the discussion topics for the games go into overdrive... DLC weapon get revealed and its gets talked about a fraction of the level of debate.

Yeah, Koei know the characters are what sells the discs - they i believe always hold the odd one back on us too knowing fine well the appeal those characters have. We will never get them as DLC - and if we ever did they would already be on disc ready for unlocking at high prices and i never want to see the company take the flagship series down that road - they nickle and dime us with the DLC as it is.
