I honestly thought after how terrible DW9 was and how hard it flopped, that this franchise was dead but I'm so happy it's not. Loved the demo and honestly cannot wait for the release version.
Oh yeah they tried to do an open world type of game and wasn’t good that they redid it to the original style in the empires version. In fact I was on the fence with this game when I first saw it but glad it’s amazing.
It's been a good game still how long has it been the best warriors games are not even dynasty warriors the best warriors games are probably the anime games spin offs pirate Warriors 4 to me was the best musou game i played Kens rage 2 and berserk the band of the hawk I think wo long was overrated wo long fallen dynasty to me was better then elden ring I had way more fun with wo long
@2genders-tk2ue - Agree with you about graphics, but if this is the 10th game in the series, and they clearly make bank off these games. Then you'd expect more frequent updates to their graphics engine. Gotta hold them to a higher standard.
Looks amazing, I'm surprised to see this series back at such a level, I hope to see other KT series coming back in the same fashion. great review Azario!
Though I appreciate that the series has finally embraced the current-gen consoles, the fact that the story mode only lets you play as a single character lessens its appeal to me
guess we should give that way of viewing games to souls games, batman arkham city, metal gear solid, god of war and any other game single play story game *facepalm*
@@GreatsharkbiteThe difference is those games you mentioned primarily (if not completely) focused on using a single locked character unlike the Dynasty warriors games.
@@newo.9173 Bro, that makes zero sense. You're talking about a previous entry and this is a new entry AND a reboot. I can do it reverse--in super mario bros 2 you can play as 4 different characters. In Super Mario 64--you can only play as mario, and its considered one of the best platformers of all time--THINK mark.
I’m glad we finally have an entry that they were willing to throw money at. For years, the presentation has been an afterthought, especially considering we haven’t had an English dub in this series in years.
0:57 "Mosou action at its very best" smol typo there.... but anyways, I'm glad the game's good, really wish this drive the development of other musou games, I'd love to see what they can do with Samurai Warriors given they want it to be different from DW, or even other IP's since Koei has done a lot like Berserk, Fire Emblem, TLoZ... Or even other companies, I'd die and kill for a pc port of the Sengoku Basara franchise, and really hoping for it since this year marks the 20y anniversary of the series
Specially since he doesn't like Dynasty Warriors very much, the older ones That's a reason I wanted him to try Sengoku Basara, it's "what if old Dynasty Warriors had a baby with Devil May Cry"
It reminds me of that part in KH2 when goofy 'dies' and u run through 1000 heartless with your allies randomly showing up one at a time. It was pretty sick😊
Had no actual faith in this after the last few disaster of DW games. But man am I glad to see its finally back in peak form! Good stuff! Is it true that the subtitles are tiny similar to Atelier Ryza 3 was...? Please say it ain't so.
@@virgil6298 I think there r only 9 characters u can play as. This is not a typical DW with hundreds of playable characters. There is also limited weapon variety compared to other entries
@@spid3y4hire88 samurai warriors 5 was already disapointing with the lack of weapons and game modes and now this. I understand that fans are hyped because the gameplay is really good but to me it's one more disapointment
well maybe your region shouldnt have such a difference from the dollar. Koei cant make the same if u live somewhere where your money is not equal to the Dollar you would be getting it cheaper than everyone else and people would buy keys there to scam the price. thats why this happens people buy keys from poor countries cuz its over cheaper sot hey had to make it all the same
That is the basis of my criticism. Everything is held from the player for 20 hours. I'm not spoiling the experience as a whole because there's a lot of post-game that I'm making another video about. Still, very fun game. - Azario

Already bought and playing in Early Access. Guys... Dynasty Warriors is back. Get this game if you're a fan. Hell even if you're not a fan, get this game if you're into action games!
So, i don't know anything and haven't played the demo but i just need to ask, do you still have to wait in front of a locked gate for two minutes listening to the dialogue event before triggering its opening? Played a bunch of them lately and by the time i got to SW5 it was the only thing that got old real fast.
@@whitefox25 I don't care about the story i just want to grind and locked gated are a 20 years old mechanic that keeps me from doing that, simple as, they are just not needed and it kills any kind of replayability.
I was convinced this was going to be an easy skip. I couldn’t justify the roster cut, especially after they promised to not do it again. I might just have to give it a chance though. Very surprised by all these glowing reviews…
I learned not to trust any reviews on TH-cam. Most are in it for the money and sometimes are bought. Seen it happen so many times. These early reviews are the ones I'm talking about. Seen it too many times ....with that being said, this game may actually be good.
@@2genders-tk2uethere’s a guy called Chris Ramp(art I think), who reviewed this, and he’s been at it since DW3, and he’s super critical. He gave this a glowing review. I think this will be special!
Pre-ordered and ready to go once i get off from work. Just been playing Kingdom Come Deliverence where in 25h of gametime I killed 11 enemies. This is kinda opposite end of the spectrum. There are still things I wish was diffirent like characters wouldnt look like chinese pop icons and music was more traditional style rather than anime rock. Everything else seems to be exactly what I hoped this series would go for.
The GAMEPLAY is great but the lack of playable characters and co-op utterly destroys it for me and I really hope this isn't the direction the series goes in. Honestly the fact that you use Diao Chan as your thumbnail in a game where you can't really play as any of the female characters is kinda awful.
You're doing a fantastic job! Could you help me with something unrelated: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (air carpet target dish off jeans toilet sweet piano spoil fruit essay). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?

Between this and the indies I am looking forward to seeing the reviews for "Stone of Madness" and " Citizen Sleeper 2" it looks like its another expensive month and growing backlog 😅
Awesome review. Haven’t played the game yet (obviously) but willing to bet that the big twist in end reveals that the MC is not one else but Lubu. And he’s sick of all 3 leaders’ BS hence turning into a rogue agent 😆 Edit: didn’t reach the part of the review where lubu does appear. Aww would’ve been nice turning into him hehe
So he's a Young Lu Bu? What if he became a Good Guy like Wo Lu Bu( In Wo 2 He actually seemed good and not a Bad Guy just looking for People to Fight and he helps Wu)
I don’t know how it can be the best Musou game in years when it stripped out so much of the content that, for me, defines the series. Not even been able to play as any of my favourite heroes is a deal breaker.
Sometimes, change isn’t for the better. If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it-a lesson we learned with Dynasty Warriors 9. Now, with Dynasty Warriors Origins, the decision to reduce a diverse roster of over 80 heroes to just one playable character is a major disappointment. As a long time fan who started with Dynasty Warriors 2 and has played every main installment since, this shift completely undermines what made the series special for me. The ability to choose from a massive roster, level up characters to insane strengths, grind challenging objectives for ultimate weapons, and make even the hardest difficulty feel effortless was the heart of the experience. There’s absolutely no justification for not allowing players to customize the Nameless Wanderer in this installment. This character is entirely fictional within the games universe, so the lack of a “create-a-character” option feels like a glaring oversight. Sadly, this will be a hard pass for me. I hope this series can get back to its roots, I just hope it doesn’t take another 7 years to see it.
In demo MC is puny as f. Your AI team mates are useless. Every 30 sec they beg for help otherwise they get annihilated. MC looks too fruity, since you play non canon character I hoped you'll get to create your own similar to DW9 empires.
Sounds like they went kinda the AC direction where you play as someone that was there but wasn’t in the history books. Pretty cool, if only we could make a custom character.

The franchise was dead long before 9 and this crap isn’t gonna change anything
Wow a great comeback for dynasty warriors. I m ready for it.

The first thing I see when I wake up after buying the deluxe for early access! Can’t wait for tonight.
Thanks to your comment I just got the digital deluxe version for early access W mans I didn’t know it had that lol
