So I've played a couple of Musou games, but never one of the Empire games. I started feeling the need to slaughter thousands of random soldiers the other day and picked up DW8E

oh god help me I have no idea what I'm doing what the gently caress is a way of life

A Way of Life is largely a barometer of how you play the game. Is your first quest to steal poo poo or kill animals. Way of Life based on that! Do you like to use the Rest command to kill time? Way of Life! Have you gotten all the Resourceful titles and Usurper? Way of Life!

Some ways of life give you tactics, like Fiendish Beast gives you Ultimate Might, which lets you sacrifice soldiers for a massive damage and defense buff while turning Friendly Fire on. Little Conqueror gives you Lightning Speed, which increases attack and speed by like 40% and is insanely fun.

This is a pretty detailed list linked earlier that includes the tier of a Way of Life. You can only go up in tier, so once you get a tier 15 WoT, you can't get any other tier 1 through 15 WoTs.

This is really cool. Thanks!

Tried out hooked swords

woof, do not enjoy those

what are more weapons to try it out if I like quick, moderately hard hitting weapons? The three section staff is one of my favorites thus far, for instance.

The only thing worse than fighting a Giant Mech in DWG or Boss in Hyrule Warriors is playing as the Giant Mech or Boss.

I really hope they go a totally different route for the gameplay. My guess is TK is going to try to make a Shadow of the Colossus type game and I really hope it flops because A. I don't care about Attack on Titan and B. God drat it get to work on the next DWG or Orochi game.

"I really hope they lose a bunch of money so they can make more games" is a nonsense thing to say

Attacks in one piece are weird. It's different in that I have to remember certain combinations, sometimes in reverse order. Not really sure what the dash/evade button is for, does it function like samurai warriors in continuing attacks?

What's the difference between Nami's default and her W7 costume? I just unlocked it and I'm switching back and forth scratching my head trying to find a visible difference.

She has the Perfect Clima-Tact instead of the original

Brook is fun as gently caress but I have no idea what I'm doing. Sometimes he has shadows behind him that increase his attack rate and some times he doesn't? He has some kind of parry mechanic but I can't figure out how to work it at all? I'm just hitting buttons and everything is exploding

getting an ally's kizuna meter to max triggers that character's hero power, I believe

Yeah he's the number one Japanese folklore hero so of course he's the central character in historical action games even if he's not as specifically, concrete impressive as, say, Honda Tadakatsu.

Also it's funny that Yukimura is just some name people invented for him later based on his dad's name, like if we just decided to call George Washington George Augustine for no reason.
