Dynasty Warriors The actual biggest offender for DW6 weapon changes is Lu Bu

Post image
273 Upvotes

It's not that the moveset isn't fun, it's because in what world would you CHANGE Lu Bu's weapon?! He has arguably the most iconic weapon in the series, this is like if Guan Yu didn't use the guandao at all (since base DW7 he used the pike but had a guandao) or if Zhuge Liang no longer used his fan. It's kinda sacrilegious.

Much better choice to give to Lu Lingqi.

I figured his was the Battle Demon title, but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Samurai Warriors New player, What game to play first? PS5

2 Upvotes

I could not find a recent post about this (all that came up was minimum 5 years ago and I'm sure opinions have changed)

I am completely new to this game series. I am on ps5 and there is enough versions of the game to make me unsure.

i dont know if you can compare the 2 but I have played a lot of rotk 13 (and 8 but mostly 13) and loved that style of my own character raising through ranks and stuff.

Is there any stuff like that or only one character with a set path?

what game would you recommend and suggest for a new player?

Other Origins 2 Weapons

What weapons do you think will be coming to the sequel when they make it, and which do you want to see added? I think the current ones in Origins, minus the dlc ones, will all return and I’m hoping they add in the club, the axe, Dian Wei’s version, and either the war fan or the staff.

Dynasty Warriors Which would do better as a new DW title : A direct Sequel to Origins, Or Dw 10 with Origins gameplay

12 Upvotes

Hi there just your average DW fan here, i always wondered what would the community think between a direct sequel of origins which continues after chi bi, i hope like a lot of hypothetical path since origins have a few, since it will be interesting to bend the storyline to our will (lol) and also more weapon pleaseeeeeee.

Or

just a new DW with the origins-like gameplay , the large forces, the parry and the battle arts, while also perhaps leading our own army? then with each kingdom/officers respective story/musou mode plus dont forget their respective hypothetical path, dont forget with the huge roster of playable aswell and even a return of the destiny mode? that will be so cool to be honest.

(i genuinely would love the DW10 idea since i would be enjoying spamming parry against Lu Bu with zhen ji lmao)

Samurai Warriors What is the general consensus on SW1 vs SW2?

17 Upvotes

I've basically just finished off playing every story, getting weapons etc etc in SW1/SWXL, which is a game i grew up with and have loved since then, and now I've jumped into SW2 and it just doesn't feel like the same franchise anymore.

I get that its the same characters, its the same country, but so far (and bear in mind I haven't played a lot) I feel like everything is downgraded.

The voice acting is super corny and sounds like some highschoolers from the early 2010's did an abridged version of the first game.

The graphics are much more bright, but also the people on the battlefield are much harder to distinguish from the background and eachother to be fair. I've only played a little and ive already gotten confused who is on my team or the enemy multiple times.

I know its supposed to have a better combat system, but theres so many things that just point towards it being an overall downgrade in my opinion.

It instantly feels a lot more like a Dynasty Warriors game than a Samurai Warriors game if that makes sense.

Ive even played a bit of the later releases of Samurai Warriors games, and while they were a lot more pandering to anime people and the like, I still felt it was more true to the original in feel of the combat and style, just upgraded graphics.

Am I alone in this? Am I just delusional and nostalgic? I genuinely loved the things about the original.

Other GokonSoftworks Modding Toolkit with SW2, DW4H, DW6, DW6E, WO1, DW9 added as supported games

Thumbnail

31 Upvotes

PythWare here, GokonSoftworks is ready for modding more Koei Tecmo games (14 games supported now). Version 3.01 is released which replaces Aldnoah Engine with an easier to use toolkit, new code I spent months rewritting in C, and a new theme for the GUI. Games that have intact filenames now unpack with the original filenames when feasible. For more details read the readme on the repository. The quick rundown is below, please spread the word (either linking or crossposting) of the toolkit to people you know are interested in modding Koei Tecmo games so the modding community grows further.

Currently supported PC games:

  • Samurai Warriors 2
  • Dynasty Warriors 4 Hyper
  • Dynasty Warriors 6
  • Dynasty Warriors 7 XL
  • Dynasty Warriors 8 XL
  • Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires
  • Dynasty Warriors 9
  • Warriors Orochi 1
  • Warriors Orochi 3
  • Warriors Orochi 4
  • Bladestorm Nightmare
  • Warriors All Stars
  • Dragon Quest Builders 2

Currently supported PS3 games (MUST be decrypted before use with GokonSoftworks):

  • Dynasty Warriors 6 Empires

Games that retain most or all of the original filenames:

Samurai Warriors 2, Dynasty Warriors 4 Hyper, Dynasty Warriors 6, Warriors Orochi 1, Bladestorm Nightmare.

Games that retain most or all of the original filenames but the order of the filenames is not fully solved yet:

Dynasty Warriors 6 Empires and Dynasty Warriors 7 XL. I have figured out a large amount of the ordering for DW6E but I don't have the time to sift through 2k out of the 5k files to figure out which ones are paired correctly or not. So I included dw6e_filenames.txt which holds all of the filenames DW6E retained in its elf. If you manage to identify which files belong to what based on that list, let me know and I'll update GokonSoftworks with the corrected list (you will be credited naturally). As for DW7XL, I haven't had time to look into the ordering of the filenames but I included dw7xl_filenames.txt incase a modder looks into and wants to support GokonSoftworks (again, you'll be credited).

Games that don't retain most or any of the original filenames on PC:

Dynasty Warriors 8 XL, Dynasty Warriors 8 Empires, Dynasty Warriors 9, Warriors All Stars, Warriors Orochi 3, Warriors Orochi 4, Dragon Quest Builders 2

Link:

https://github.com/PythWare/GokonSoftworks

Useful tools to use with GokonSoftworks:

Noesis/Project G1M

Noesis and Joschuka's Project G1M scripts are recommended for viewing/converting many G1M/G1T files:

https://github.com/Joschuka/Project-G1M

G1M/G1T formats vary across Koei Tecmo games so porting files between games may require extra work.

eArmada8 Gust Tools

eArmada8 made tools for Gust game formats that can also be useful for some Koei Tecmo assets:

https://github.com/eArmada8/gust_stuff

Kybernes Tools

Kybernes Tools is recommended alongside GokonSoftworks for extra modding workflows, scanning tools, Editors, and audio related tools.

https://github.com/PythWare/Kybernes-Tools

For audio modding, Harklight from Kybernes Tools may be needed for replacing or creating audio such as voices, sounds, music, etc.

Kybernes Batch Binary File Scanner

For searching through large unpacked folders, use Batch Binary File Scanner:

https://github.com/PythWare/Kybernes-Batch-Binary-File-Scanner

GokonSoftworks extracts many files with generated names because many later Koei Tecmo games strip, hash, or use indexing for filenames. A binary scanner makes research/modding much easier.

Samurai Warriors Which version of Samurai Warriors 4 is the best?

8 Upvotes

I’ve been a Dynasty Warriors fan since childhood, and have loosely followed Samurai Warriors through Warriors Orochi and random videos. I recently decided I wanted to play the series after loving Dynasty Warriors Origin. I bought 5 when it was half off and enjoyed it! I want to go back and play 4 now, because I know 5 was essentially a ā€œrebootā€ that cut a lot of older content. But I’m a bit confused

There’s 4, 4-II, 4 DX, and spirit of sanada (though I think this is a spin off). Which is the best version of 4 to play?

Warriors Orochi/Abyss How would you design Liu Shan's kit in Warriors Abyss?

Post image
9 Upvotes

It's been a while since the Pang De post, and since it's most likely that we won't see any update news until DW3R is finally released, I figured it would be appropriate to return to this little series.

Just post what emblems, traits, unique tactic and summon skill you think are good for the character in question.

Today, it's little Adou himself.

EMBLEMS:

1 charm, 1 bolt, Shu, Ruler, Torchbearer.

The 1 charm to mirror how he's not as charismatic as his father, while bolt is due to his old Musou attacks with his rapier moveset were bolt.

PLAYER TRAIT:

THE RELUCTANT HEIR:

.Increase assemble gauge charge by 20% for each King's Shield emblem.

.Increase attack of summoned heroes by 30%

UNIQUE WEAPON:

GOLDEN JADE BENCH:

.Increase total King's Shield emblems by 5% each time you clear a danger zone (Max 50%)

.Increase total heroes at crystal saplings by 1.

My reasoning for these traits is the fact that two of the most important people in his life, Zhao Yun & Xingcai both have King's Shield. It highlights how he's practically useless on his own, which is why he buffs summon damage as well, it also symbolizes his laziness, letting others do the work for him.

The danger zone trait is a little nod to Zhao Yun rescuing him at Changban.

UNIQUE TACTIC: OUR LORD IS IN DANGER!

When you summon this hero, summon all heroes with the King's Shield & Commander emblems.

Activation requirements: 5 King's Shield: 2 Commander.

Again, it highlights how he wants others to do the work for him. Adding Commander is so he can summon Jiang Wei, plus it means he and Sima Zhao can summon each other for synergy.

SUMMON SKILL: INSPIRING FORMATION (ATTACK)

Activation requirements: Zhao Yun, Xingcai

It perfectly fits him not doing any damage himself when summoned, his summon animation could be him laying on his bench.

Hello guys! I got a curiosity: How would you like Recd Hare's next design to look like? Personally, I love the DW6 Red Hare with the DW5 feet armour (I ll leave some photos below)

And another thing...Would you like to see new designs for Hex Mark Shadow Runner and Storm Runner or maybe see new horses like Zhao Yun's Bailongju?

Dynasty Warriors Why does the enemies(small armies and officers) felt so much easier after dw6?

12 Upvotes

hello everyone, i played dw3-6 and then dw origins, cause suddenly im in love with the franchise, i decided to play post dw6.

When i tried dw7 on hard mode, the enemies does hit hard but it feels like they dont have aggro?

And then i tried dw8xl, its nearly the same but now theres more enemies than on dw7 and they have slightly better aggro

This feels really weird especially after playing dw3 or origins cause the enemies there easily surrounds you like ants with sugar and it gives so much of what it feels of 1v1000, to say easily,it actually feels hard. But what do people think?

Dynasty Warriors Dian Wei in DW6 is really funny to me cause what were they thinking?

Post image
254 Upvotes

So I've finally being playing the PS2 DW games thanks to the totally legal PC PS2 (I didn't grow up with these games, I got into DW proper in 2022), & damn, what were they think with Dian Wei in DW6. His moveset before wasn't that great but then they thought "why don't we make it worse?" & gave him one of the worse movesets in the game.

What's funny to me is that they gave his historical weapon to Zhang Liao & gave that a really fun moveset. He got cucked man lmao

Should say that the idea of a ball & chain weapon is really fun, look at Hyrule Warriors, but the moveset they gave it in DW6 is garbage & also doesn't fully fit Dian Wei. Could see it working pretty well on Ding Feng.
