Besides the missions taking so long to complete, Pirate Warriors 3 was way shorter than I was expecting. Also I was really really hoping on the long shot that Robin, Tashigi and Nami would have different appearances from before they all started fitting the same template and after.

All the Strawhats have pre-timeskip and post-timeskip versions, different movesets between em too. I think Tashigi has a pre and post timeskip costume too, but the same moveset.

So I wasn't expecting it but I thought it'd be funny to have a normal figure beforehand and then after everyone gained extremely thin waists and et cetera.   Also sad that Zoro doesn't get his first outfit at any time in the game either. The game seemed pretty short, aside from how long the levels take.

You know how in anime, characters always get more powerful as they age, despite that not actually being a thing in real life? It turns out that manga artists get hornier as they age. This is Oda's Super Horny level 2. You're not ready for him to go even further beyond.

I mean, like most Warriors games finishing the campaign is pretty quick and straightforward. The meat of the game is Dream Log or whatever it's called.

It's mostly that I'm comparing it to other Warriors games and also that I largely know about what happens for a good chunk of One Piece so it feels short to me. Warriors Orochi 3 (Xbox 360), Hyrule Warriors, Dynasty Warriors Gundam 2 & 3 are what I'm going off of.

The main story in Hyrule Warriors was so loving short though. It's almost unfair to compare anything to WO3, because that one is just unreasonably huge. And DWG2 was also mostly contained within the individual character mode thing, the main story episodes going through a couple shows were pretty short. Not that PW3 isn't kinda short, because it kinda is, but it's not THAT short. I'm almost certain the main storyline in HW was shorter, but I could be wrong.

I dunno about Pirate Warriors or Gundam Warriors, but of HW, Fire Emblem Warriors, and WO3, WO3's story mode was the longest, probably by at least 3-4x. Even WO2's Story mode was significantly shorter. But most of the meat of HW/FEW was in Adventure/History mode, so it's kinda not fair to compare them.

Going through DW3XL with a buddy, for the main purpose of getting a bunch of 4th weapons, and with this we've taken the jump to collect some 5th weapons too along the way (for characters we actually like using, at least): I've not really bothered with this 5th weapon lark for DW3XL since I was in my mid/late teens, and... what the gently caress, it's a downgrade?! Looks to be more for bragging rights than actual usability on higher skills, so grabbing it caused more stress than it's actually worth. Wonderful. So the Sky Scorcher is simply a much better weapon overall if you're playing on Hard or Very Hard (I mean +60 Def. makes one hell of a difference when you're in the middle of a pack of ghosts phasing in and out of existence just to get a jab in), but at least I can put this back in the DW3XL Trophy Cabinet. After we checked the stats between the 4th and 5th on a few characters, a lot of the 5th look more like a mere "alternative" option over the 4th (such as the above), rather than straight upgrades, with some (such as those for Guan Yu or Cao Cao) just being flat-out worse. Jesus Christ. I almost feel cheated.

Fumaofthelake posted:I think the scaling on the 4th weapons changed with the XL pack but the 5th weapons stayed the same. Unless of course you're referring to anything after DW3, where 4th/Lv.10 weapons were certainly toned down and functioned more like basic upgrades over the 3rd/Lv.9 weapons -- excessively so in DW4 -- rather than being ridiculous game-winning "superweapons", while also leaving plenty of room to make the 5th weapons in the inevitable XL addition actually worth the effort (without them being broken OP too).

ZogrimAteMyHamster posted:Not entirely sure what you mean here. None of the stats on the 4th weapons from DW3 are changed when playing DW3XL, which (right now at least) has me scratching my head over why the game needs to be set on Very Hard to obtain these 5th weapons when they're nowhere near as much of a step-up in power (if at all) over their predecessors. I was thinking that level 4 weapons in the base game had a lower stat cap than level 4 weapons earned in the xpack and that’s what made the level 5s not make sense. But I could definitely be thinking of something else since it’s been like 15 years or more since I played DW3.

From what I can tell, the 5th weapons generally add an element into a weapon's c3/4/5 attack. In the case of characters like Lu Bu, who already gets elements on their 4th weapon, it changes it to another element on their 5th weapon. But yeah, they're more like alt weapons since 4th and 5th weapons share the same base atk anyways.

Also it looks like Lu Bu's lets you automatically have Red Hare. EDIT: Guan Yu's replaces the element with Red Hare. Course, the weapon having Red Hare is kinda pointless if you already unlocked Red Hare I guess. Allarion fucked around with this message at 01:13 on Apr 4, 2019 |

Speaking of saddles and whatnot, having any "Saddle" item equipped in DW3 is something of a wasteful option since: 1) Standard (white/brown) horses are near-enough everywhere, and they're all fast enough to get you from A to B in reasonable time. 2) You can/will be knocked off the horse frequently if you try fighting from it (especially on Hard/Very Hard), unless you go ahead wasting even more precious item slots on whatever harness/armour items prevent this happening (and even then it's only effective against archers/crossbows). You're just gradually crippling yourself for the sake of trying to piss around on horseback for a few seconds extra at a time, which is already shamefully ineffective. Easy to see why saddles got their own equipment slot from DW4 onward

I will note though, that Zhang Jiao's 5th weapon in DW3XL is utter hilarity. It has a Lightning element on it, but this thing also changes ALL of his fire attacks into lightning, even the ones in his regular moveset and his musou attack.

So... are there any pointers on how to play the retro Nobunaga and ROT3K games? I tried poking at the first one in each series in a couple different emulators, but the UI makes almost no sense and I got my poo poo pushed in very quickly in all cases.

Started replaying a bit of WO4 and my god the characters just don't stop loving talking during battles. The slightest thing happens and BAM here we go listen to everyone waffle on for several minutes about a problem I've already solved until the next minor event where it happens all over again. I wouldn't mind but I don't speak a loving word of Japanese so it's all just empty noise to me, and reading the subtitles isn't exactly a thing to do when surrounded by endless mooks.
