I think you're over analyzing it. Aging characters does not require them to follow history at all. They can take whatever liberties they want.
pretty much, Old Yukimura on Okehazama pls

Yeah, it's not like they need to age them very accurately to how they were in history. It's just for showing some growing up and development as characters.
Sanada Bros could still somehow become adult and appear in battle faster than they did in the history. Maybe the kids version would only appear for one or two cutscenes during Masayuki era, then they suddenly grow up, who knows.

Heck, it's not like the story in the series actually ever give information when do the character born, so most player wouldn't know whether the character's appearance is really accurate or not in term of age, unless they are history maniac. Pretty much the only information they have ever given is Liu Shan was still just a baby on Chang Ban, so it would be stupid if he appear at Chi Bi as adult, since the story make it as if it happens in just few days later.

Ty for that then guys, thine soul has been soothe'd! And actually on that note I feel like I should say, I'd love if the games decided to go back to being less historical ala SW1(and to some extent SW2), with branching story paths and the like. I mean looking at clan stories, we even have less stories now, than we did back in SW1! So, it's perfect for some branching stories.

Actually seeing as how Sanada-maru is only focused on one clan, they could probably do with branching stories to make the story mode longer; have we heard anything on this front at all?

All recent Koei games always were delayed. I suspect the same might happen to Sanadamaru as well.

pretty much, they can simply add NOT in front of the the "coming soon" bit :haha:

why do they bother with am early set date when they almost always delay their games nowadays is beyond me tho :uh: , only reveal a release date when you are sure you can deliver on that time

I just can't wait till this game out. I want to try out the new character. It be interesting to see how the existing casts of character interact with the new character. Plus I wonder what stages is going to get a revamps.

What exactly do you guys mean by "stage revamps"? Isn't it quite obvious that all battles in this game will feature new maps, I don't think they will recycle anything from SW4, especially since this is not even part of that saga.

Among musou games, SW4 map designs are one of the worst, so i'm not hoping much from this one as well. Whether they got revamped or not.

well, they needed to dumb it down so that the AI controlled partner character won't derp out when they are going towards the objectives, i guess....

the last good map design on SW were on SW1XL anyways, the lack of cool ninja maps kinda makes the subsequent SW maps dull and no different from DW

I won't be surprised if it's got delayed. It's sandwiched between Sun/Moon & FFXV gonna be a suicide to release a game in that gap of the week.

well Warriors games fans are more into action, FF and Pokemon games are more for RPG fans. Lets not forget that Sanada Maru is going to be available for PS3, PSV, and PS4. FFXV is PS4 only and PKMN: S&M will only be for the 3DS. So thats two consoles they wont be appearing on that Sanada Maru will be on. People who don't own a PS4/3DS wont be deterred from getting Sanada Maru

:lol:

I guess they'll reveal him along with Hideyori. That should be enough new characters for the game already.

And note that I'm not a big fan of Hideyori, I just feel like he'll be added eventually. They might as well get him out of the way in this game because he can actually be prominent in the story here.

I don't care, if they want to bring Hideyori in, it is up to them, but there should be Osaka defender anyway.

Site got updated:
http://www.gamecity.ne.jp/sanadamaru/characters.html

I think that's it with the new characters. There's a place for one more Toyotomi character *cough*Hideyori*cough*, but it's unlikely now.

Okay, so aside from fishing you can also farm, smith weapons, pay money to level up your characters, get minor missions, there's some mechanic for offering items, likely to get certain rewards and there's the goddamned always present bonds feature with gift mechanics... Oh joy!

There's also a... conch collection mini-game? And you can unlock a character by doing it? What the hell?!

Lots of stuff to grind for rather petty rewards, as one would expect from a Japanese game (what's their thing with grinding?! So many games take that to ridiculous levels!).

The characters page has certainly been filled up now.

Big thing though is that you can also play the battles of other warlords happening in the time period!

On the characters page there is still room to add another Toyotomi and Tokugawa but...they won't. It seems like this is all they're doing.

I'm honestly pretty disappointed.

Well this is a spin off game. We've already gotten more characters than we got in the expansions in 4.

I do like the relationship chart, and at least the rest of the SW4 cast showing up easies people's worries they're not gonna be there I suppose
