The thing with weapons though, is that the majority wants them to be EX'ed for a new character. Costumes on the other hand, are just cosmetic stuff. I don't see people being like "Wow, this costume looks great and needs to be given to a new character in DW9." That would be pointless. Weapons form the character. Additional costumes don't. So that's why these kind of DLCs are maybe a bit more accepted among the fanbase right now. When you release a weapon, it is as if you released a part of a future new character beforehand, until you release the character himself/herself. That being said, i think there will be 2 DLC-weapons. But those will be announced somewhen after they revealed the results of the current Famitsu poll. If 8XL will have 3 new characters, the winner of the poll will have a completely new weapon, while the other 2 will get THOSE 2 DLC-weapons. Similar thing happened to the new additions in 7XL. One thing i don't have against new DLC-weapons being released beforehand, is that if DW9 on the PS4 will have many new and different gameplay mechanics. Those weapons would therefore work differently. Sort of like what they did with the Short Pike on Han Dang. As for the games you mentioned. It's a very different situation. Those games have just one main character, with maybe 2-3 more characters. Let's take Ninja Gaiden 3 as an example. I own it, still didn't play it, but followed some infos about it in the beginning. Ryu Hayabusa had only his Katana to play with, unlike in the older games where he had more to choose from. Of course the majority complained because they had to play with the main character for the whole game with only one weapon which couldn't be even leveled up. Later they released some DLC-weapons but the harm was made already. I mean, it's different to play with one character and having the choice of 4-5 weapons for that character, as to play with around 80 characters while having a weapon for each of them. If for example someone plays only with certain characters in DW8, that person has already the choice of having around 80 different weapons to choose from.

I'd shout "Shut up and take my money" right on KOEI's face if they made (all or some of) Warriors Orochi character's weapons available somehow (DLC or Empires). Like when 5XL had Fu Xi and Nuwa's for CAWs. Playing with Yoshitsune's Lightsaber on Dynasty Warriors would be glorious

I'm all for DLC weapons for DW8, yes the weapons would most likely end up being slapped on a new character but to be honest despite Han Dang getting the Short Pike over a new weapon I'm still pumped to play him, and people want old weapons to return and we got a couple in the Conjoined Swords and Wired Claws to name a couple, but let's face it they can bring back the Bladed Bow or the Twin Daggers with a changed move set as DLC the fact still remains it's a weapon we have used in the past and isn't really new, but DLC weapons would be awesome in Empires since they lack an owner it'll give more variety to CAWs plus Orochi Weapons as CAW exclusive would go down a treat as ownerless (who doesn't want to give Zhang Fei the Gourd) Sorry if it doesn't make much sense. |

Which is why I said the DLC is really up to the consumer on what they decide is worth it or not. The only thing people really cry out for is costumes and stages, but at the same time I can see why people would want music. I don't see the point of weapons DLC when anyone can use said weapon and the game isnt hard or anything to justify needing it and there's no vs mode. That doesn't mean I want them to stop making weapon DLC but with 80 characters with mostly different weapons fighting styles I just can't justify it and very few ask for weapons in most any game. I guess all this will come into play on the xtreme legends game that'll maybe come out. |

More useless crap for DLC, great a wallpaper. Get it together KOEI because this is getting extremely boring. |

Since we have some kind of gaiden stages which can be skipped (e.g. Puyang & Xiapi in Wei's story), why can't they just add some new stages in Story mode using the same manner? For example Yangping Gate or Changban for Wei. I'd find that much better than some costumes, wallpapers or BGM. |

Who says they aren't? Why are people worried about stage DLC when they always have that? For that matter why are people worried about any of the usual DLC they release. |

They did release Bowang Slope, but it was just a remastered stage from DW4 without any introduction, character perspectives or cutscenes as in the Story stages. I also didn't say they weren't making any, I just stated that they could do them instead of releasing costume stuff like they're doing now. And I doubt that if they are going to release more DLC stages, they'd be incorporated somehow into the story. They didn't do it for DW7 after all (though, admittedly, story mode worked a bit different there). |

The DLC pricing for this game is upped from 7. The 2 new weapons are 200 yen each. 100 yen up from DW7's. Same with the costume sets. Also you can see 4 Recolored Weapon sets for 100 yen each as well. And Black Kite that's not a a BGM for Shosei Mode. It's a town theme. As in the assets used to make the town. The game by default only includes a Chinese style city and a Japanese styled city. Edited by Daosiying, Thu Apr 18, 2013 4:32 am.

Could this "screw crossbow" be Yueying's DW6 weapon, perhaps? Blaze blade...sounds like another sword. Which is fine, so long as it has a cool moveset. New weapons seems odd...given that everyone is decloned. I mean, I suppose that's no reason to not add new weapons, but I just can't see myself using them since everyone is already unique anyway. Still, nice to have. Wonder if these DLC weapons will become EX weapons of the XL newbies...that'd be a little...cheap. Welcome, but...cheap. |

Wasn't originally going to buy DLC for the JP version, I was going to wait for the English game. However new weapons pulled me in. Definitely going to throw my money at Koei now. |

Blaze Blade? What if it's a sword that's permanently burning. Screw Crossbow might be Yueying's DW6 weapon? |

This is true...what if they plan on using these DLC weapons to give to Sun Quan, Ma Chao, Wang Yuanji...and those other peeps who share weapons with generics...if there are anymore. If there is a sword that sets people on fire? Sounds like a suitable Quan weapon. |

hmm.. Blaze Blade remind me of Sun Quan, since his musou is basically fire/explosion. moreover he also share current weapon with generic. Crossbow? DW6:S Yue Ying's ? i want DLC weapons for the likes of Sun Quan, Ma Chao, Wang Yuanji, and Guan Ping. |

Blaze Blade either reminds me of either Sun Quan or Sun Jian while Screw Crossbow reminds me of Yueying in DW6: Special. Still wishing to return Xiao Qiao's Twin Fans, Xingcai's Fork and Shield, Lu Bu's Cross Halberd, Gan Ning's Daggers for DLC |
