Wasn't sure, but apparently the Empires games allow you to select a faction and its unifier (a PC of your choice), and then go about unifying the land your own way. Slightly more tactical. Hmmm... content/gameplay-wise, it definitely surpasses DW. I can't really compare it to PW or DW:G...

Possibly. It's a fusion of DW/SW with some OG characters and some guests from other TK series. Mind you, the roster's taken from DW7 and SW3, so no Linqui. That said, it's probably the best modern Warriors game available. I tend to use compatible weapons out of simplicity, but if you get the...

Yeah. Projectile-based characters and single-sword styles are typically your best officer killers. It doesn't matter too much. As you acquire playable officers, you can use them instead.

Not gonna lie, Warriors Orochi allows for some truly hilarious stuff. Lu Bu clone appears as a stage final boss? Pick Sima Zhao and ride him like a surfboard, then kick a giant fireball at his face. Not dead yet? Tag in Ryu and Izuna drop him. 4 Lu Bu clones as a penultimate battle? Switch...

Now now, everyone needs a balanced diet.

First game? DOA5, mostly because I actually knew about the series and it had finally come to the Sony market. First exposure? The movie. It was bad, but the concept of a fighter not dominated by super-muscly men was appealing. So I checked out DOA4 on YouTube. I appreciated the gameplay, but I...

Prepare to eat your greens, folks! That would make more sense if Honoka actually had a green costume...

As usual, today is work-dependent. Wednesday is a definite go.

I actually wouldn't mind a genuinely mean/antagonistic addition to the Tournament side. Like Goh from VF minus the connection to J6.

The best way to find out is to just try it out. Near as I can tell, the Dragon Jaw is a Glass Cannon weapon. Hits net you big damage at critical HP with lower defense to get you there faster, but you regen a lot of it when you kill things, limiting its continued effectiveness. The Dragon Spike...

Just a warning with the Vita version: some characters have musou attacks that cause immense slowdown. The greatest offender is Jia Chong.

Point made. I come from a SC online background, so I guess I was too used to it. Reminds me of a time playing SC5. In a lobby fighting a 'Rugi with my Patroklos, and I use a few throws because I can. He doesn't break them, and bitches at me about throws not being legitimate. I give him the...

It's just sad that throwing has a greater stigma in the online scrub community than combos, or 'juggling'. I mean, if you get comboed to death, they straight-up outplayed you. If they throw, you take much less damage 9/10 times and typically have a chance to break it (DOA being the sole...

After completing the True/Historical route, certain missions prior to a critical battle/moment will have added conditions to allow for the path of history to change, indicated with a star on the Mission Select screen. For example, in the Wu route, you must: Defeat Lu Gong before he escapes in...

To be fair, his hypothetical route is the most badass thing since the concept of Warriors Orochi. I mean, Lu Bu actually undergoes character development, listens to his tactician, makes full use of his allies, and spends the last mission plowing through every playable character from that era to...

I dunno. I mean, I get that VII was the best-selling FF game ever, but I'd rather see other less known/recognized installments get more, or something, on the playable front. By the way, do you think Square should try to incorporate in-house guest characters, like those from Bravely Default and...

Near as I can tell, it was less a conformation, more of a 'not yes, but not no'. Macfarlane essentially said Spawn's gonna be in a video game in the future. One done by NRS. It's about 95% likely it's MKX, but it could be a different project altogether. That said, prepare your 'knew it' GIFs...

More this than anything else. Although executed closer to Warriors Orochi than Hyrule Warriors.

This is pretty much it.

Jokes on you. I borrowed a friend's copy. Still bought XIII, though. Was it just me who was disappointed by the gameplay of XIII/XIII-2?
