musou_warriorsYou know what? We don't get enough activity here. So I'm going to attempt to make a nice long post. Whether people take any notice is another matter, but I shall have a go. I love DW and it deserves an active community.
Although it's been out for a while now, I am going to talk about Empires. I think it's rather good - there are improvements to be made of course, but it was worth the money. The fact that you can actually station generals in individual areas is cool (although I tend to swear a lot when an area of mine is attacked and there's nobody there) and I LOVED the fact that you can actually order your allies around. So they don't try and attack a base when the entire enemy army has closed in on your main one, for example (which I have to admit can happen when I play on Hard... X3).
Being a firm fan of Dynasty Warriors crack and humour, though, made EVERY scene with either Lu Xun or Zhang He great. The Lu Xun pyromania joke that begun in the fandom has truly spread to Koei, who now get our favourite fire-person to reference fire in some way in practically every scene. I particularly liked it when he named his 5 main generals the 'Five Flame Generals' when I played with him as ruler. Trust me, at the rate it's going DW6 will include a scene where Lu Xun's pyromania causes him to accidently set fire to his own camp. ^^;
Becoming an Emperor is a bit of a pain, though. Because I'm very impatient and like to get things done quickly, I have never got an Emperor ending (despite having maxed out almost every general). Sad, isn't it? I know how to, but the process is soooo drawn out. Getting the Good one seems particularly annoying. Maybe I'll just play as Liu Bei and go for the Bad ending at some point, just because. Being evil with the evil people just isn't as fun. >3
While I'm here, I would also like to mention my Zhang He fanlisting - http://www.hour-of-destiny.org/zhanghe/ - which needs love. ONLY 13 MEMBERS! I know he has more fans than that. Please join and show love! It's also going to be a shrine, so any talented fanartists with donations to make will be eternally loved. Junyi will love you, like she loves the Art of War crew (I still miss it). I miss you all, you know. Some of you I haven't chatted to in AGES!
Erm, anyway. Thanks! And make more posts! This community should be very active! ^_^
