Wei is a good kingdom. I've got quite a few favorites in Wei, including my ultimate fav, Zhang Liao. Yup, he gets my number 1 spot. Xu Huang is freakin' awesome in this game too though. This is my favorite of his designs I'd say, and I'm also really fond of Zhang He's new design. And I like Yue Jin as well. But number 2 spot would have to go to Zhou Tai. He's definitely my second fav. A nod to Lu Meng though who is one of my favorite Wu characters. We've only played through the Wei side of story mode. We just started Shu and Wu will be last so most of the characters I haven't gotten to play yet. I guess for Shu Zhao Yun has always been my old standby, as well as Ma Chao. And here I'm forgetting all about Jin. Well before Sima Yi was a Wei guy, but since he's now technically Jin I have to put him as my favorite Jin character, because he's just so sneaky. I also liked Sima Shi. Having only played Yue Jin of all the new characters I haven't been able to form an opinion on any of the others. There are just so many characters!

I think they've added a bunch of cool elements to the fighting with the rage bar, or whatever you call it, that turns your musou into something uber. Then there's the weapon affinity bonus, which makes things more interesting and adds another element, although I'm not sure how positive I feel about it when I'm surrounded by 3 generals and no matter how I switch my weapons there's ALWAYS somebody that has the stronger weapon. It certainly makes it more challenging though. I'm really happy that everyone gets a unique move set and it's just been plain fun to play. 

Rambling is fine :D. I ramble too.

One must have the greatest respect for Zhang Liao, never backing down if his Lords beliefs are on the line, i mean the man work for Dong Zhuo, and DIDN'T hate him! that takes such honor. As much as i LOVE Zhang He's DW6 design, i believe this one gives him...purpose. ZHou Tai is just...the coolest, he was the first character i ever played (well, i mean i played my custom character "JACKIE!!!" from DW4E and i played Zhang Jiao when i was DKJ jr. and playing DW3, but i mean my first character i played when i had them all unlocked). See, i have to be honest...i don't really like Zhao Yun...i mean, i know you do, but i dunno...I don't really even like Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, or Zhuge Liang either...I much prefer Pang Tong, Wei Yan, Huang Zhong, Ma Dai, and Liu Bei from Shu, i dunno, it's just me. If one does not have respect for Sima Yi, then i dunno if they actually play Dynasty Warriors at all, for the man is a genius, and evil as heck. Sima Shi, takes after his father, much unlike Zhao, who takes more after Zhang Chunhua. And I'm sure you'll play the new characters, they are all just so...COOL.

They combined the DW6 system of weapons and the DW7 system to come up with the brilliance of DW8's. i usually don't mind if they have the exclamation point, they usually can't do anything to me cause the weapons are so strong that i have. The new weapons, as much as i enjoyed the old ones, FAR outclass them. The Siege spear was the first i tried and it was AMAZING, but i do have respect for other ones.

Rambling? i can do that in my sleep...i probably do...

I really have no strong attachments to Zhao Yun anymore. We have a long history of him being the first character I always played with my brother because he's one of the only characters of mine that's unlocked in the very beginning of each game, so it's kind of a tradition that I always play him first, although that wasn't the case with DW8. He's dropping rapidly out of favor in lieu of new characters. I've never been a fan of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu I'm indifferent to - he's always been my brother's favorite. He even kind of looks like him, in a totally un-asian way lol. My brother's beard isn't long enough though :XD:. I've always liked Liu Bei, although I preferred him with the facial hair, but he's fun to play. Xu Shu has totally blown me away and his fighting style is so much fun to play that he's rapidly rising in the ranks of my favorite all time characters.

But regardless, you certainly don't have to agree with me on everything. Variety is the spice of life they say :). Or as one of my favorite quotes would say "I don't have to agree with you to like you and respect you". Simple as that. 

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. My work puts me out in the field 4 days a week so I have no internet access during that time, or DW8 access. My brother is also out in the field, but for longer, so I have to wait till next Thursday when he gets back before I can play again. It's our special thing to play together. We've really only just scratched the surface of the game, but I can't wait to play again. Soon enough I suppose. Ramble away!

Till next time,
