Might be the laziest DW production to date.

This is one series that seems to get worse with each update. I actually expected a better game on the PS3 but the only improvement, albeit slight, was the edit mode. The musou character changes only made them less interesting. For some reason the game designers thought it would be cool to use a pillar as a weapon. Not. Dian Wei is no longer an option without the axe and the changes to Ling Tong seems to have made him less potent. Xiahou Dun...sigh.

This is a much shallower game than it's predecessors. Strategy has never been very necessary and that hasn't changed. Attack everything when you have troops. You may never be attacked in a whole campaign. If the strategy cards have any impact other than restoring troops, it isn't evident. You are also limited in the number of troops/officers you can have. Becoming an ally is no longer an option. And don't look for cut scenes. This is ok if you're an occasional gamer and don't want to relearn control schemes whenever you pick it up. Battles don't take long and there are thousands of baddies to dispatch. The last truly enjoyable version goes back to dw2. Please Koei don't spend all your next budget on graphics. Hire some creative writers and designers and give us something memorable.
