What's the pool you're referring to? Not the 100man on, because Shikanosuke came 10th on that one if memory serves.

I hope they **** with everybody and add Shikanosuke out of nowhere, along with announcing some expansion of the whole Mori plot.

The likelihood of that is nill though and we're probably going to see Mori Katsunaga, Chosokabe Morichika, Goto Matabei, Kani Saizo and Tokugawa Hidetada or some ****.
I don't see Shikanosuke for this game. Don't see Kani either, and I think Hidetada and Hideyori will remain UNPCs.

As for new characters I still say that Osaka defenders are the most likely choice.
Osaka defenders and Lady Yodo would be pretty much perfect for me. please don't do Hideyori, the guy is so limited. Even if the Osaka campaigns are split into multiple battles. Hidetada sucks too, but even he can provide a tiny bit more than Hideyori.

Actually with this game starting as early as Kawanakajima I wonder if there's any chance we'll get to see Katsuyori...

Speaking of the idea of splitting battles into multi-part battles is really cool, and should that feature end up moving into the main series would make justifying certain character additions easier as well as giving everyone extra screentime. One downside that would bother me however is that I really do like the series' big battles as single stages, it really helps them feel large in scale and epic but I suppose it's possible they could still capture that feeling even after splitting things up.

Also a wild shikanosuke appearing but not appearing in the story mode at all would be hilarious; but at least he'd be guaranteed for SW5 that way!

There's a new enemy type in the third scan, right page, his like the sumo big guys, but with different costume. Or at least look's new to me. :doge:

It's on the picture at night that have Masayuki running side with a guy carring rock's.

Shikanosuke is always relevant and is always the best.

But yeah, I'm not expecting him in this game at all. I'm just kidding mostly.

I never see Mori Katsunaga's name on Osaka defender wishlists. Any reason for that? IIRC he was second only to Yukimura in battles such as Tennoji and clearly distinguished himself. I feel like the big three are really Yukimura, Katsunaga and Morichika. I feel like KOEI would be smart to add them rather than Goto Matabei, and thus seem really like they're just copying Capcom on everything.

Another name I rarely see mentioned is Akashi. What about him? Is his Christianity the disqualifier or do people just generally not care about him?

This is what i wanted from SB Yukimura Den too but like i imagined this SW one is more full of content story and detailed interaction and cutscenes :ph43r:

Completely agree to that. :sunday:
Too bad he is kinda irrelevant. :/

Takigawa Kazumasu might be relevant since there was one stage where Sanada defends him. Yeah-yeah, people are tired from Oda adds. Got it.
Honda Masanobu then. Might be one big antagonist for the whole game. :whistle:

Kazumasu would actually make a good deal of sense in this game. If he had a chance of getting in, this might be it.

I think we'll be seeing Hidetada personally.

Yeah, Hideyori and Hidetada are the safest picks. Could be anyone related to Sanada clan somehow. Would be great if it`s Takeda character like Chiyome or Masakage (or both). Most likely they gonna throw just those 2 folks.

Curious to see how this goes. I see that already 1 character added has already caused hype. I like the design of said character and his weapon is nice since it's what I imagine on Liao Hua but would want to see more about them to make a full assessment. Somehow I foresee the Osaka part of the game being hyped a bit. Koei has plenty of people to choose from.

I would say Akashi Morishige or Matabei Goto are easy guesses but it's hard to think overall. However it seems that since all the Sanada clan timeline is being used, we may expect some officers from any 3 unifiers era.

With the hint of ageing being in recent games, I look forward to hopefully Koei adding this feature in future games.

Hideyori is not a safe pick, in fact, he is a really bad one. Also, I wonder how will this game affect SW4E. I'd hate if Masayuki and any other new characters ended up like Toshiie, Gracia, Yoshimoto and Motochika, who were left out of SW2E due to SW2XL being released only after.

Pretty safe to say SW4:E is over and done with, we're not getting anything more for it, so it won't affect anything at all.

Okay, so will make specific wishlist for this game. Since there is no chance for characters like Kennyo or Shika. There should be someone whom Sanada family able to meet throughout the story.
I think most of unpcs retain the same look like Katsuyori from the screenshot.
k, so:
1) Chiyome. Caz we need fem. character and she is awesome takeda add. perfect chemistry between her, kuno and Shingen.
2) Masakage. Yes, I still think he might appear, just not rate his chances high. Not the biggest fan of him, but he might open up Naomasa a bit.
3) Masanobu (Honda, sorry Kosaka). It is perfect time for him if he is ever gonna appear. Caz basically where he else might be so vital if not the game based on Sanada`s story?
4) Kazumasu. That`s on case if Koei wants to feature prominently Kanagawa battle. Don`t think that chances are really high on that but not very slim either. 1timespot for him though (pff like for Osaka defenders anyway).
5) Yoshinobu. Don`t throw away this idea please into garbage can. I think it is good time to throw Uesugi ally = Satake member, and this member might be most likely Yoshinobu. Guess he works for Osaka too. No direct relations to Sanada though, just ties to Uesugi.

k whom we most likely not get - Sekigahara wolfpack like Hideie, Tadaoki, Yukinagi and others. Reason is simple. Sanada pairs were not there, they were busy on 2nd front. Which kinda limits potential adds number. Unless there would be some big what-if scenarios, there are no reasons to add any of those. Sad, but true.

and yeah aside of my wishful thinking we are getting some waifu, Sanada ninja and random defender pick (mine would be Goto Matabei, but not like I care much tbh).

I fail to see why its safe to say that. Dead or Alive 5 is still to receive content (Mai Boobiranui), so late updates and DLC for SW4E are totally possible.

I fail to see how he is a bad pick, if anything, this is the most appropriate time to add him if any considering that Osaka castle will probably be several battles this time around. And either way, Yukimura hearing that Hideyori committed suicide and Yukimura's lone charge into enemy ranks would have a lot more meaning and emotion if he had an actual personality.

I agree Kazumasa would be a good choice. It could make Keiji and Toshie's relationship more interesting as well, plus having a "sengoku loser" in the game would be a nice change of pace.

As for Masakage he's obviously a great choice but I think he could be even better for Naotora than he would be for Naomasa. I mean after all in game Naomasa is inspired by Naotora, and historically he was inspired by Masakage, I could see Koei using that to give Naotora and Masakage some kind of relationship(friendly rivalry? possibly with a hint of romance?) with the end result being that Naomasa is inspired by both.

Plus the Takeda and Imagawa/Tokugawa/Hojo all interact a lot and Naotora just so happens to be under each force as it fights the Takeda(well her being with the Hojo was something Koei made up, but it fit pretty well). It could lead to a good ending for Naotora too where she kills Katsuyori for irresponsibly killing off so many of his own retainers at Nagashino.

@Makorin: Lady Yodo would be a much better pick than Hideyori. She was the one that was actually in control and her life extends into more battles than just Osaka so she'd have more uses later on in the series too.

Dead or Alive is not the same, the game still has active player base and has had ongoing and regular DLC content. SW4:E is just like any other DW/SW game, they won't be adding these new characters in after the development of that game and the DLC is over and done with.

I'll gladly eat my words if I'm wrong, but there's no basis for assuming or hoping any characters revealed in SW Sanada-Maru (just revealed in Japan) will make it into localized and already released versions of SW4:E.

And either way, Yukimura hearing that Hideyori committed suicide and Yukimura's lone charge into enemy ranks would have a lot more meaning and emotion if he had an actual personality.
He is a bad pick in Sanada-maru in the same way he is in any Samurai Warriors game. If Sanada-maru will tell the tale of the Sanada family, it will probably start with young Masayuki in his Takeda days, which means that, like in any SW games, Hideyori will only exist at the last Battle: Ōsaka. Even if what you say is true and they split the Siege of Ōsaka in, lets say, three battles, its still not worth adding a character to appear at a few battles and die. If personality is an issue, they can easily make his CAW model from SW4E appear as a generic, like another guy that was shown in this thread (Masakage, I think?). Bluefiend brought my exact thoughts on who and why is a much better choice than Hideyori. Stop reading my thoughts, @bluefiend, goddamit.

The thing is Hideyori isn't really known for his fighting ability and even your own argument is extolling his personality. That doesn't mean he has to have the whole nine yards done for him in order to do that. He just needs to run around with his Anime appearance and everyone would be happy (even if that means he doesn't have a real moveset).

Masayuki Sanada is look like Chen Gong Young version , Of course people already talk about it.

As for new Character

Tadaoki won`t be bad add either. Just him being added in this title does not make much sense. unless being a really big trouble for Yukimura at Osaka. I don`t see the point to add him now though.
