Dynasty Warriors 7 Looks Slightly Nuts

Gatling guns? Surfing on enemies? Not sure what's going on with Dynasty Warriors, but I think I like it.

You must be thinking of God of War or Kingdom Hearts. You haven't ever played a DW game though, you're just being a bitch. Thanks for stopping in. "
Uh, I'm not sure what DW YOU have been playing, but as someone who's played many of them as well as Samurai Warriors, this is entirely accurate. "

" Whoa - Koei doesn't seem very smart ;) This is not Dynasty Warriors' 10th anniversary. Dynasty Warriors 2 came out in 2001, the original game came out in '97 or something. i don't even like the series, but even I know that! "
 
The tenth anniversary is for Shin Sangokumusou. The first Shin Sangokumusou was Dynasty Warriors 2 in the States. That is why the titles have the number differences. This is the 6th SSM game.

For some reason, I'm a giant sucker for Dyansty Warriors games. I keep going back to them being liek YEAH THESE ARE AWESOME, and then after like an hour of playing I'm like fucking hell, they did it to me again. its the same fucking game. 
 
 
and then I keep playing it til the early hours of the morning.

Looks like same old Dynasty Warriors, same old generic-ass guitar soundtrack, same button-mashing slightly-fun combat, same awful voice acting.

I'll also wait for a price drop. I like me some Dynasty Warriors, but not enough to pay full price.

Wow, this game is modern! You can actually change from one weapon to another while you mindlessly press the same combos over and over again and occasionally pause to hear horrible dialogue!

Much like the previous 20 different installments of the overarching Warriors franchise (including Orochi and Samurai), I'll end up playing this and loving the shit out of it. 
 
I'm just hoping that they fix Wei Yan.  His presentation in Dynasty Warriors 6 kind of pissed me off.  I mean, how the fuck you gonna take away the double pole blade?!?!  Hopefully, they fix him back to the way he was before.

Gattling guns? Srsly? As if DW wasn't fucking stupid enough without them completely ruining any sense of immersion by putting weapons in that didn't even exist in the time period this is supposed to be based on.

Yes, cus that's what the series has alway tried to do. 7 fucking games, 31 iterations later and jackasses like this still don't fucking get it. Gimme a break. Let's do five more pages of people who never played the game saying the game never changes. Is this meta humor? You guys doing an impression of how redundant you think the game is with these identically useless posts?

This looks like an uprezzed Dreamcast game, with gameplay that belongs in the early 2000s for people with the need to commit virtual genocide

Count me excited.  I can now slay millions of peasants with Gatling guns and arm cannons!  Who wouldn't be stoked about that!?

Tried that Trinity game demo. That was painful. It's like they combined Dynasty Warriors and a text based RPG into one game. Ugg.

So the game that was based on the chinese book the romance of the three kingdom now has a fourth kingdom? Perfect! Just what I should of expected from this series of near identical games.

You  know, I actually like this series...but the setting is getting kinda old. I'd like to see some different nations involved, other than Japan and China. Maybe add Mongols to the mix? Bladestorm wasn't really the same, but the Hundred Year's War was a good setting for this type of game. Or Native American tribe battles?

There are about 18 warring states in the book that you never read, and the game you never played is only very loosely based on that book you never read.

I gave that book a good try, got about 50 pages in but got bored about reading about peoples ancestry, also I've played about 4 of the Dynasty Warriors games.

Dynasty Warriors are hands down my favorite franchise. 
I get that it's not very popular with many people as they think it's monotonous, but I have great fun with them.
