Two disc nonsense? You mean putting in your vanilla DW7 disc to play those levels on DW7XL?
Yes.
Honestly, 7 was a bit of a let down. However, from what I've read, 8 has a system like 4's (the best in the series, easily) where the outcomes of one battle can influence what happens in the next. I can't imagine 8 drops 7's linear battle style but dangit it wants to try.
Questions;
Are the graphics way better now?
Does everyone have their own moveset?
Does bao still make cat faces?
If the answer to any of these is no, I'm waiting till it's $30 or less.
It's no different from any other expansion pack.
I thought 7 was fantastic and 6 was the letdown. I'm on the fence about 8 though, I haven't sampled it yet but I think I will soon.
I don't know if she does, since I haven't unlocked her yet; but everyone has their own moveset (actually for the first time in the entire history for the series, although everyone always had their own Musou). The graphics are pretty much the same as 7.
I've never played a DW game. In fact I'm so distanced from this series that DW is Dragon Warrior to me.
Are these games fun? What are they like?
It's a hack-and-slash game where you run around kicking ass as ancient Chinese warriors in contexts based loosely on Chinese history and legend. The last game I played in the series (DW4, or around there) was pretty good for some mindless fun. Also, some games in the series apparently have more story elements to them, such as your conduct and success in one battle influencing future events. But mostly, it's about slashing things.
Me and James have been playing this recently in Japanese, which is a hilarious combination of him trying to read the ancient era Kanji and understand the comedy old language when they speak and me using my vast love and obsession for the series and the novel to try and work out where the hell we are from the characters and map alone. Together we're just about getting through it. My preferences and prejudices rarely change in this series and I doubt they will now, Jia Xu is a badman still, Guan Yu and Zhang Liao always inspire awe, Sun Quan is still the biggest ponce in the series and it still gives me a rage boner when I get to murder him on the battlefield.
