Also the general consensus I have heard is that DW7 is a huge improvement on DW6. And I am loving it so far, so make of that what you will.
Sounds like it's a pretty sweet game. Looks like I'm forgoing lunch for the next week so I can afford this little gem :D
Yeah everything I've heard about it is that it's way better than 6, and possibly even better than 3.
Edit: Jesus Christ Jiro how much do you spend on lunch?
You have no smurfing idea how overpriced my university is. You want a pie? $4 mothersmurfer. You want a smurfing potato scallop? $1 each mothersmurfer. When you're there for like 14 hours, you have to give in to this ridiculous :bou::bou::bou::bou: and buy coffee and food multiple times.
EDIT: On topic posts c'mon get your :bou::bou::bou::bou: together Jiro. Is there any "create your own dude" mode like the Samurai Warrior series tried to implement? I thought it was interesting, but not necessary a positive step.
I just beat the initial three kingdoms' campaigns and unlocked the Jin one. I do like what they've done, it gives you a much better overview of... the strategic side of it all? And there's some good character development. It's just that a lot of the characters don't even get used, and I don't know if I like that. I can see now why there's no Yuan Shao/Dong Zhuo/Lu Bu/Nanman/Yellow Turban campaign, as they're keeping it accurate (ie, if your side lost that battle in history, it's gonna lose it in this) so I don't mind too much.
I also do like that they've added Jin as a fourth force. I'm glad that the badassery of Wei through the likes of Xiahou Dun and Zhang Liao has been split off from the utter ponce that is Sima Yi.
Xiahou Dun will forever remain my number one man. I am salivating just thinking about him.
Don't ruin him. Can't you go and like Zhang He instead? :colbert:
LUBULUBULUBULUBU!
Jiro I am sorry I think you are a wonderful man but you are much too Austroponceus to have a man who ate his own eyeball

As always, the soundtrack is smurfing epic. Just wait 'til it hits like 1:41. Really gets you fired up.
THe big question is this, can you play as more then five smurfing people from each country? I loved the mass number of Campaigns playable in 5, and the sudden drop of that number in 6 saddened my soul. :(
Also, I love mw DW 5 T-shirt. :love:
Edit: Also, ZHang Liao for life!
I take comfort in the fact that if the real Xiahou Dun saw you, he would look you up and down with his eye, then take your head clean off.
Also I am kinda eh about the Jin campaign. I was excited at first because it's a whole new kingdom, and whole new characters! The problem is that pretty much every single one of them is a complete knobend. While they're overpowered (even by DW standards) and fun to play as, they're just eh. And the campaign itself is just:
Step 1: Rebellion in the East. Supported by Wu!
Step 2: Jiang Wei and his wacky Shu gang invade yet again!
Step 3: Shenanigans in the capital.
Step 4: Go to Step 1.
Shu used to be my favourite kingdom, but late-Shu is filled with ugh. Once the three brothers and Zhuge Liang are gone, it all goes downhill.
Wu are the best later faction by a long way. Most of their best people don't show up until half the cast is dead.
Also if you play Romance of the Three Kingdoms (Or read the actual novel I guess) you'll see what a bunch of pricks Shu actually were. Zhuge Liang's deathbed wish was to have Wei Yan killed, basically for no reason other than "I don't like that prick".
PR man, it's all about PR.
He knocked over his smurfin' light lantern that he was praying to for another cycle of the zodiac's worth of life (12 years). That and the whole traitor thing was the justification for it.
Of course, neither of the those events actually happened in history. Zhuge Liang didn't try to magic his way out of death and Wei Yan was loyal to Shu right up till the end.
And yes, late-Shu characters don't look fun to play as. I took one look at Liu Chan and knew I wasn't going to like him.
