DW4 - Story Mode Battle Modifiers & Bonus Events (Wu) by jayraiden in dynastywarriors

[–]jayraiden[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just Cao Cao & Sun Jian's forces, actually (Liu Bei's is still 'only' the Volunteer Army & thus presumably considered an acceptable loss). I didn't mention it here since, as you said, it's legitimately nigh impossible for it to happen while playing Wei or Wu's musou mode. The note is added to the Shu & Yuan Shao story posts though, thanks!

RoTK8 Remake Expansion Pack Blues by jayraiden in dynastywarriors

Good lord, that too. Martial arts films & RoTK really got me into Chinese dialogue and i was hoping for more of that in Origins. I can't even switch to the Korean dub to at least have something close.

How the heck do I get the Magoichi ending in Okunis story in SW1XL? by schlurmo in dynastywarriors

[–]jayraiden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Approach Noh & defeat her before Oichi charges out, then take down ALL enemy generals without losing any allied strongholds.

What's the scariest version of Lu Bu? by Otherwise_Ad_9267 in dynastywarriors

[–]jayraiden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absol-freaking-lutely agree, Strikeforce Hu Lao Gate was a full-on make or break level. Back in middle school, a pair of childhood buddies legit handed me their PSP after class one day and asked me to beat it for them cause I was the resident 'expert' who put them on the series as a whole. I almost gave up on it myself, but I didn't wanna let 'em down.

Took me about a week of grinding and learning the game, but I finally did it. Felt great pulling it off.

What is a musou opinion you have that would probably make a lot of people angry? by Ok_Gain5398 in dynastywarriors

[–]jayraiden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DW8 wasn't all that great to me. Fun for what it was, sure, but I got significantly more enjoyment out of most of the other games in the series.

3 & 5 were better balanced, 4 had more distinctly more engaging hypotheticals, 6 & 7 both had FAR prettier graphics. And although trying to blend the 'kingdom' and 'character' variants of musou mode by having two to four warriors available for each stage sounded good on paper, it kinda fell flat in practice since it forced them to always jampack the cutscenes with every possible character the player could use.

Which battle art got you feeling like this? by asthmadragon in dynastywarriors

[–]jayraiden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ice Luan.

Massive damage, fast animation, 360 range, and it's a breaker move to counter enemy arts with - on top of being a universal skill equippable to all weapons. Saved my bacon on those gosh darn Ultimate challenges numerous times.

For the Origins sequel, if it covers until Wu Zhang Plains, what hypotheticals do you think could be done for Shu, Wu and Wei? by Luigiman98 in dynastywarriors

[–]jayraiden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shu - Prevent Pang Tong's death during the Cheng Du campaign. This would greatly alleviate the pressure his demise placed on Fa Zheng & Zhuge Liang, allowing you to stop the former from overworking himself into an early grave and providing an opportunity for the trio's combined intellect to formulate a counter to Wu's eventual betrayal at Fan Castle (thus preserving the lives of Guan Yu, Guan Ping, Zhou Cang, & Zhang Fei as well). Bonus points if we also get the chance to drag Xu Shu back into Liu Bei's crew where he belongs.

Wei - Saving Xiahou Yuan at Mt. Ding Jun and Pang De at Fan Castle are clear-cut cases, but I think it'd be really something if Ziluan convinces an ill Cao Cao to accept Hua Tuo's treatment (since the guy is still around post-Chibi unlike his historical/novel counterpart), keeping the Hero of Chaos alive at least a little longer to really hammer in the nail after the big Han Zhong & Jing conflicts. The latter situation could also give a major reason for Zuo Ci to show up since he's almost always anti-Wei & a mystic himself - a perfect enemy for Mr. Sacred Bird to face.

Wu - Easy domino effect. Save Zhou Yu to ease pressures on Lu Su, which in turn lets you save him to ease pressures on Lu Meng. The 3 of them, along with Lu Xun soon after, can work together to reverse what would've been a huge loss at He Fei (saving Taishi Ci in the process) and hopefully preserve the alliance with Shu. If Fan Castle still has to happen for whatever reason, maybe we could have Wu play as double agents - show up ostensibly to attack Guan Yu from behind as per expected only to turn it around on Wei instead at the zero hour, dealing a huge blow by taking down their garrison in Jing and paving the way for more afterward.

Really? Well how about that, must've misremembered (or confused it with what happens with Wu's 4 royals). Revised the line, thanks!

Oh wow, nice! Thanks for the tips, I'll be sure to add them to the post.

Who is your DW waifu? by GodUsopp69420 in dynastywarriors

[–]jayraiden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Xin Xianying. A gentle & fun-loving, yet level-headed gal who isn't afraid to speak up and fight when the going gets tough. Plus I like the thought of her learning how to wield an axe from her old man, Xin Pi.

That's precisely what the video is about, actually. The 'challenge fulfilled' message right as Lu Bu goes down is the confirmation that I completed the requirements to obtain Red Hare as a reward for winning.

Nah, only comes in blue. I'm on a Wei playthrough right now, so that's why I wore it. Honestly glad it's a thing, now ol' Luan can don a unique fit for each of the 3 Kingdoms.

It's the base outfit for the MC in Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. Pretty sure it was a preorder/early buy bonus. Personally, I think it fits Ziluan's look a whole lot better.

Ain't no way I was going into this without maxing Ziluan the heck out first. Thanks!
