Eigo posted:I'd be happy enough if just the item details and objectives were in English in the JP version, but that's probably asking a bit much for the few that would. Wasn't Demon Souls in full English for some of the eastern releases? I don't remember if the JP version had full English, or if it was another region there. Yes, the non-Japanese Asian release of Demon's Souls was fully English, right down to voice acting.

I'm having a hard time finding the relevant information I want, was hoping you guys could help. I haven't played Dynasty Warriors in... a long time. Like, PS2 early. I saw DW8 was coming out Tuesday and was wondering if it's being well-received or not. The last one I played was when they put in a bit of territory stuff to the missions... and the pop-in was TERRIBLE. Practically unplayable. Am I gonna get a similar experience in 8 or is this actually "A Good Game"? I should note I'm also getting it to play online with a friend so is there any online thing I should be worried about? edit: v Samurai Sanders posted:It's my favorite DW game yet, by a pretty good margin. It still has has many of the usual DW problems (I didn't notice if the pop-in was worse or better than usual, but I do know you can see enemy generals from like halfway across the map if they are in line of sight), but its extremely varied in weapon sets, has a lot of really good stages, and is just overall about as good as DW can get. gently caress yeah, that's what I was hoping to hear. Thanks. Blarfo fucked around with this message at 21:35 on Jul 14, 2013 |

I'll second Samurai Sanders' take, although Dynasty Warriors 7 already introduced a bunch of the bigger changes, namely weapon switching (every character can equip/switch between two different weapons so their movesets except for Musou attacks will change, while they'll get a character-specific action for using their "default" weapon), a single overall story and the introduction of the Jin "kingdom"* whose story is a continuation/conclusion to said overall story. DW8 takes off from there, although unlike DW7 there's no more in-mission switching between weapons (the two weapons are selected in the pre-battle menus) but they decloned the movesets so that unlike prior games every character has a unique moveset again. And if you don't like the new plot, you could always just read Ravages of Time:  (For a sample chapter, this is Ravages' version of Changban but thanks to the mostly-lack of names the lack of content should make it not-really-spoilers.  )* They're really more Wei as run by the Sima clan, Jin itself isn't formally founded until after their own story mode.

I hated having everyone just be a carbon copy of each other in 7 and it's really the only thing that marred it for me.

Is 8 disc only? I can't find any confirmation one way or another and someone mentioned it may be awhile back. Did anyone definitely confirm one way or the other? I much prefer getting it on PSN.

There's no for sure though until the Playstation blog puts up a Drop post, but he's rarely wrong. e: The hell, did they JUST post that when I did this post?

 DO NOT BUY THE 360 VERSION OF DYNASTY WARRIORS 8 I don't know what the hell happened, but apparently the folks TK outsourced the 360 port of DW8 to 360 forgot to actually make the drat thing playable. I don't think I've ever seen this much slowdown in any game in the series. Ridiculous.

So glad they are offering this. If they keep the 2 person share for the PS4 I will get every single game I buy on PSN, no hesitation.

And yet, as I watched that I was still going 'oh man those combos rule, I totally want this now'. It definitely looks like they've hosed with the pop-in to try to get more guys on screen at once, so hopefully the PS3 version actually runs worth a drat.

That looks worse than the PS3 version ran but it certainly does slow down in similar fashion when there are loads of dudes on screen. Rather than dropping frames like DW7 it slows down the gameplay like a SNES game or something.

Cool, glad that as someone with a 360 I'm hosed over even worse than with DW7 since at least I'm actually able to play that game.

What is the Musou mode like in 8? Is it like 7 where there was a contiguous story for each of the 3 kingdoms + Jin? I played part way into the Wei story in 7, then made the mistake of playing Warriors Orochi 3 and getting caught up in that.

Samurai Sanders posted:"Fourth weapons"? I don't get it. The unique/special weapons from like 3-5 where you had to play the game on Chaos and/or do something specific with a character in a certain stage to get an extremely powerful weapon for them. Generally, you had three normal weapons that were just variously stronger versions of each other, and then the fourth/last weapon was super strong and had an element and/or special properties.

I admittedly just find the Ravages version so much more understated-yet-well-done though, certainly a way more compelling Liu Bei than the loser from DW7.

Atomic Robo-Kid posted:Is it so big because of an additional download, like Japanese voices? How in the hell is it so huge? Well, there are a lot of characters who all need their own voice clips. Each character has several weapons. All these things need models and textures and audio. Also video, maps, etc. It adds up. And since it's the PS3 version it's probably not compressed a bunch since it goes on a Bluray instead of DVD.

So pumped for that 18.2 GB download. Also it looked like SSX's musou had a vacuum effect on it in the slowdown video? Is that a weapon element or something new or has it always done that?
