Whoa, that was quick! Normally they make us sweat for at least a year after its initial release in Japan. I wonder if KT's current localization model of no dub and the rise of digital sales has made it more profitable for them to release such niche titles overseas? |

confirmed doesn't mean simultaneous release, Arslan and Berserk have their localization confirmation really early too, not that surprising IMO |

Yes, because this very Idea is completely stupid and nobody would think about something that senseless. |

Let's not call people's ideas and opinions stupid, please. Just because they don't align with yours doesn't mean they're stupid. Anyway, I just thought of something. I have a feeling Nene won't be in this game, she'll be moved aside for Hideyoshi x Chacha, and Sasuke is her replacement. Silly idea i know, but it's Koei |

So Sasuke's confirmed to be an adult then? Given he's a "young man", and all. Interesting, interesting... Also his bio makes him sound like a certain Saizo-based ninja from Naruto, along with his feminine appearance and hairbun... Yeah I'm guessing he's supposed to be a stand-in for Sasuke and Saizo. |

Oh, well that's nice. Guess I won't have to import, then (assuming the game comes out early enough in 2017). They already confirmed that every character is going to be playable, but yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they completely cut her out of the story for this one and relegate her to free mode only or something...

guess it explains then why he does not have Sarutobi last name. We got both Saizo and Sasuke, and for the most part it's Saizo (in terms of background and personality), but Sasuke is a bit more popular among those 2, so he took his name instead. let's call him Kirigakure Sasuke. |

No, if you actually want to remove a character of big importance as a lazy "solution" to not make said character age, this IS stupid, its no opinion, its a fact. |

Well if there's a way around it then Koei will likely take it unless it's one of the main characters for this title, if it was SW5 then that wouldn't be the case obviously. The only characters at a push Koei should be aging because they seem to be throughout the entirety of the tale are Yukimura, Masayuki, ChaCha, Nobuyuki and Ieyasu. Characters like Kanetsugu, Masamune, Mitsunari and Ieyasu's vessels won't need aging as it's likely Sekigahara won't even feature in this title to warrant seeing some characters age as well as them not generally being needed to be seen other than when appropriate anyway. Edit: I also wonder why this is described as a spin-off of 'SW4: E' rather than just 'SW4' on the Koei wiki. Edited by The Outsider, Thu Sep 8, 2016 8:52 pm.

Wow I actually legitimately was not expecting that. Spoiler: click to toggle Regarding Akihime and Otsu Ono, I am also completely ambivalent to them. I don't think they are particularly necessary, but I think they are possible given Maya's comments on how they play a role in the drama (apparently?). Edited by Rance, Thu Sep 8, 2016 9:04 pm.

Not having Masamune age would be sad, I mean they could just use his previous models, starting from SW1 to the latest and polish its graphics up. So they wouldn't even have to work for it, lol. I mean they already have, child, teen and two young man versions of him throughout the series. IF they wanted they could give him a more mature look for the late game but that would be about it.

Masamune doesn't really warrant the multiple looks, specially on a Sanada based game. By the time his story usually starts (1585), he's already 18 years old, and to Osaka is just 30 years. At best he'd need a older model for those battles, but Koei can work around that by simply have them only interact at Osaka (which, aside from possibly Odawara, is the only time they faced one another). |

Yeah, was just wondering about it because they do have a lot of models to work on his ages. And yeah he probably would need a 30 years old model. But we know KT lol.. |

Rather than make a new 30 year old model, they should bring back that little ******* model from SW1 and have that be his younger form, then have the newer Masamune be the older form.

I think the latest looks a bit too young to actually be around 30 They can use this probably for the younger look and have one older. Would be perfectly enough I guess.. Less work than on Yukimura and his pops

I just realised while looking at ChaChas images on facebook, it ha been mentioned when we got the scans that although she is holding something that looks like her hair pin, it's still in her hair, BUT in those clearer pictures, one shows her throwing a hairpin with ANOTHER in her hand, so she must have at least 2, like the throwing axes in dw8 maybe? |

Hhhmmmm, well, I might get this. I skipped SW4 and SW4-II simply because they just seemed meh to me for some reason. However a chance to experience a full game with a focused story mode, while still bringing back all the playable characters from 4 and 4-2? I would be willing to give it a shot~ eeehhhhh, yeah this is going to be awkward. I personally like Nene, and her weird sense her relationship with Hideyoshi makes. Though I could see them, not cutting her from the story, more so putting her with Kiyomasa, Mitsunari, and Masanori. She treats them like her kids, so putting more focus on her mothering them to make up with her lack of interactions with Hideyoshi would be ok, right? its been confirmed her weapon is her hair pin. the screen shot of her wielding it, while it also being in her hair, is likely an early development screenshot. As there are others where shes fighting with it, while it not being in her hair. |

I realise that been stated already, what I was saying was she is carrying TWO one in her left hand and throwing another, as if she has multiple hair pins. I can't attach the picture now but it's in the FB page :-) |
