Every year, I tell myself that I’m not going to buy that next Dynasty Warriors game, and every year I make a liar out of myself….and have a great time doing it. This time I really meant it, too. I’ve played the hell out of every DW title to arrive on the xbox and the game has always remained the same, fighting the same battles, leveling up the same generals, unlocking the same items, and so on. Great fun was had, but one can only take so much. I began wishing for the Koei to release some Romance of the Three Kingdoms titles again. Old-school strategy buffs will remember that series which has the same historical setting and characters, but the emphasis was on turn-based strategy with no action to speak of. Dynasty Warriors 5: Empires gives you the best of both worlds: the strategic turn-based empire building of the ROTTK series AND the hardcore hack-and-slash epic wars of DW all rolled into one fantastic game with a discount price to boot. How could I possibly resist? The graphics are pretty last-gen, but the gameplay is solid and the custom soundtrack option is especially killer for this game. The strategic aspect could still be deeper and better implemented, but I’m pretty impressed at the challenges presented in the battles, even for a DW veteran like myself. The character creation system: also improved. Too bad they took away the bodyguards, though. Oh well, Koei giveth and Koei taketh away. This game is definitely worth your cash if you’re looking for a fun.
Excellent game, lots of fun. I only wish there was a story mode attached to this game along with a few extra 1 liners (the computer controlled players use) that weren’t as annoying as the ones currently programmed into it.
I bought this game for the fight and war, but it seems that the objectivity of the game is mostly political rather than warfare. One can choose to battle but for the most part, it can be skipped. There are certain cards (literally) to be played that’ll make the armies larger or stronger, or give money to the poor and hungry. It’s mostly about building your armies and getting the strength of the people rather than the hack-n-slash I can get from Lord of the Rings. I was hoping it’d be similar but I was disappointed. However, the battles were worth it and I had fun stealing horses. The game itself runs smoothly but it takes a few hours to get the hang of the political part of it just right. I still play it from time to time but if a customer is looking for the war, I’d get Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, or Skyrim. It’s more my cup of tea.
Simply, put, I’ve never owned a game with more replay value. I could play this game forever. Even after I get a new game I still keep coming back to this one…
Like the title says, “What do you expect?”. You pick a country and go from one battlefield to another slaughtering the hordes of soldiers and the occasional general. In between the battlefields you have some “diplomacy” to handle. Basically you do some even MORE boring stuff than wading through the idiotic sea of soldiers.If you’ve played one of these games in the series, you’ve played them all.
Really a fun game liked it alot!
Koei has outdone themselves with this classic.The legends and myths surrounding the fall of the Han dynasty in second century China are entirely enchanting and Koei has brought to life and even now made into a more historically accurate strategy and conquest videogame.I don’t think it defeats the purpose that the player has the capacity to lay waste to entire armies and opponents because, being a hack-n-slash, the game adds a sort of vintage "kung-fu feature film" effect that is, I’m sure, entirely enjoyable for the average gamer.Five stars. No question.
Dynasty Warriors is one of those games that I like a lot, but I don’t quite know why. I think I enjoy the idea of it all. Me versus an entire army of people. My behavior and abilities are powerful enough to destroy the entire army if used properly. However, I’m not quite a one man show since I need to rely on other generals and luitenants to hold their ground and win a battle or two as well. It’s a nice idea.In reality the Dynasty Warriors games are definitely repetitive. They add more and more characters every time but not a great deal more depth. The battle situations are roughly the same and certain characters are mirror images of each other ability-wise.That being said, the game is just good fun. From the last time I played they added a career mode type of feel to the game. It used to be that you fought battles in a more linear order. Now you are presented with an Empire of different states, which must “rule over”, invade, defend, etc. The decisions you make will ultimately change the mood of your fighters and affect the outcome of the battles. You can discover new items, capture new generals, and invest in different technologies. And it seems like getting new weapons is a little less difficult than in the old one.This helps a little bit with the repetitiveness by allowing you to control several different generals throughout the game rather than just using one over and over.Graphics wise, the game looks pretty good. It’s not revolutionary and the draw-distan.
I got this to complet the sires that I have so fare and still gating the others, best game ever.
Easy to play game with an RPG feel, The battles are fun to play and the leveling up make its even more enjoyable.
