I've really gotten into this hack and slash series. Since last year, I've had Dynasty Warriors 5 collecting dust and I never really played it. I then thought I'd give it a go and I was pretty hooked.
As games go, they all are pretty simple. It's a hack and slash at heart, and while it's been updated many times (it's at number 8 I think now) I've never played beyond 5. Which is fine, because 5 is pretty good.
It is mostly simple, but it can be fairly hard. Hard and Chaos mode are exactly that, and some characters are beyond terrible, upping the difficulty. It's loosely based on Romance of the Three Kingdoms, very loosely at times. Zhang He is so improbable a character...
But I like it. If I'm feeling down, cleaving through hordes of enemy soldiers is a great pastime. What do you guys think about the series? Who is your favourite characters, and what not?
