My best friend and I played and beat this game as teens in the early 90’s. An incredible game! You become so attached to the characters as you are with them throughout their lives. Truly a masterpiece!
It's my favorite NES RPG, and I think a remake would be amazing. I think a RPG set in Three Kingdoms China would be really unique today. The only genres that really use that setting nowadays are strategy games, and Musou (Warriors) games.
Guys, simply try Destiny of an Emperor - Rise of Leyasu (NES Hack). Verrrrry solid hack. and at least twice as difficult as the original! But every hardcore DoaE player should give it a try!
This was my first introduction to the Three Kingdoms and lead me to then being interested in the Strategy Games and Warriors later. I never was able to beat this though as the Last Boss was to much for me to ever beat. Thanks for covering a game that almost never gets talked about.
This was one of my favorite games growing up and it's good to see it get some love. Insanely underrated game from the NES, and one of the best RPGs on the NES, beaten only by Dragon Warrior 3, and maybe Final Fantasy in my opinion. The most memorable things in this game were finally being able to recruit Pang Tong at a time when the rest of your armies were around 1500 troops and he had almost 4000. It felt good having such a beefcake in the party for a while, even though he never leveled up. I also remember one of the highlights being the An Sha tactic to assassinate enemy generals. If there was some big army and you checked your report and saw a dumb general, ezpz just assassinate that noob and let's turn this battle around real quick.
awesome... if this happened in a modern game I feel like they would consider it a "bug" in the code and would nerf it out real quick... I love unexpected things in games like that
Underrated is right. I loved this game as a kid. Also thank you for pronouncing the names correctly. I'm not Chinese or anything, but I have a lot of respect and reverence for basically everything Chinese except their government, and it grinds my gears when people can't be bothered to learn the proper pronunciation. And Jesus Christ man the fight you show at 1:45 sent me right back like 'Nam, have some decency.
It was my first ever RPG beaten when I was like six and it introduced me to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms games and novel. I think I'll remember this shit no matter how old I get. The army battle gameplay still holds up IMO Looking back, I have no idea how I figured out how to wake up Zhuge Liang. I never would've figured that out today without a guide
@@jonathangallone6543 Zhou Yu is a more difficult boss IMO - by the time you face Sima, you have access to all the best generals in the game (including Zhou Yu)
@@Xygor it absolutely is. It's just a shame that the menus and UI are so clunky that it's really hard for me to go back to it. But that's okay, I just watch videos like yours and speedruns every once in awhile and get my DoaE fix.
My love for this game brought me to your video. On 2:43 the "all-out" part, I believe they use tactics (at least the enemy generals I'm pretty sure) and you can hear it when they do. I remember some fights where my entire army got An Sha'd and I laughed it off. Please correct me if I'm wrong with this. Overall, awesome review and I learned more about this game. Thank you for sharing!
Oh, you aren't wrong about how only the enemy can use tactics when selecting "All-Out". Still own the cart my brother got in 1989 (was at an Electronics Boutique somewhere here in Florida), and I still get that feeling of dread whenever I have mini-boss encounters with anyone that has "An Sha"..
Having been An Sha'd one too many times myself I started using that tactic against the enemy generals. I even got lucky using it successfully once against Sima Yi. Instead of using Zhuge Liang as my strategist, as the game heavily encourages you to do, I used Jiang Wei instead since he had access to spell. And since Zhuge Liang has the highest INT stat (+5 higher than Sima Yi even), tactics had a high success rate.
Really appreciate your knowledge in the chinese history story you've obviously done some research and also appreciate your pronunciations of these chinese characters names, it shows that you definitely do try your best. Been a subscriber here for awhile now and always have loved your work here, love all your reviews and this one is no exception, it is immensely enjoyable and greatly appreciated, keep up the good work. 👍👍
I love Destiny of an emperor on the Nes. I've been playing it for years. I've played the sequel Destiny of an Emperor 2 on my Nes emulator disc on my Sega Dreamcast. Since it was never released outside of Japan, I had to play the translated Rom. I just recently just bought an English translated copy of Desinty of an Emperor 2 for the famicom. It's awesome to finally have a physical copy of the 2nd game that I can play on my Nes, thanks to my famicom adapter. Great review. I definitely recommend playing the second one if you get a chance to.

One thing I want to add to this, is that it seriously helps to look up a scanned copy of the instruction manual, or at least just look at the segment of a guide that explains what each tactic does. That will save a LOT of confusion for first-time players.
I just completed Destiny of an Emperor this morning I really like this game. I like the DQ style graphics, the dialog, the ancient Chinese setting, the Music, And I really like how straight forward it is to get to the next area since this game is very linear. Though there are a few issues that I have with this game such as the random encounters since they are either non-existent or I would get into 5 battles after taking a single step. Having to constantly switch inventory when getting new items or generals. and some of the final fights lasted for over 20 minutes. But overall I am glad that I played this, and I wouldn't say it's that difficult but that it's very time consuming and the game did take me over 30 hours in-game time. But now I'm going to play other niche 8-Bit games such as Lagrange Point, Tao the way and maybe Shell Beast Story.
love your channel, man, and great review. I loved this game when I discovered it during middle school. I was surprised to learn that the generals were based on actual historical figures (mostly), and was prompted to read RoTK. I used to grind around the last castle until I maxed my soldiers, and had found all of the special swords. Loved the major boss music for Si Ma Yi (became the ringtone for my wife, lol)! Glad to see you loved this game as much as I did!
Very nicely made, well-paced and well-spoken review. Love to see content on one of my favorite RPGs still being made in 2018. I've played it so many times over the years, from childhood when I was fascinated by the concept of recruiting generals to adulthood when I was good enough to complete multiple challenge runs through the game. I posted a bunch for a stretch of time in college at the Kongming.net forums and have considered playing some of the mods of this game. I even wrote a so-so FAQ on GameFAQs for it, though I never did finish the overhaul draft of it that would've made me proud enough to actually recommend someone follow the guide, alas.
What are some of the reasons you would give me to REPLAY this game? Are there cool things that can be tried out on multiple playthroughs? I would love to hear it... Been having lots of fun with RPG's that allow replays with different class combinations or handicaps on purpose
@@FeelingShred Challenge runs, like using no recruited generals, *only* recruited generals, only tactician-types or attacker-types, using a minimal party (2 characters), or of course speedrunning it, which I did for a while in 2020 (my best spot on the any% leaderboard was 3rd but I've since been overtaken).
@@AaronRinggenberg Downloaded the ROM, also downloaded Dragon Warrior 3 because people say it's awesome. I like having NES and other console ROMs around for situations where I can only carry stuff in a small thumb drive, or situations when I'm on battery and have to play something that doesn't use CPU, things like that. Portable games
IMO the greatest jrpg on the nes hands down. It is also one of the hardest jrpg of all time. Im playing though the second one right now, and it is on par with the original. Capcom was definitely on to something, but for whatever reason, dropped it. Fun fact: you can actually get to lvl 51 which makes the end game a shade easier.
Tip I figured outback back then. There is a monk up north that will automatically raise you up a level. Wait into you max out your level and then return to him. He will be able to move you up one higher level
It’s so nice to see fellow lovers of this game. I bought it on a whim around $50 in the early 90’s. I’d had so much fun playing this. I got so excited when Lu Bu joined my army once lol
I played this game as a kid and immediately fell in love with it. I rented it at the local video store and was hooked. I can remember renting it several times and making it pretty far. One day, I went in to rent the game, and it was gone. I asked the store manager about the game, and he informed me that he sold it because it wasn't getting very many rentals. He said the only other person who rented the game offered to buy it for full retail price, so he sold it. I was devastated. I asked him who it was, and he couldn't remember the kids name. He just said he was quite a bit older than me. I looked for this game everywhere and never found it. There was no internet, no ebay, no Amazon. By the time all that stuff came along, I had moved on from the NES. I never played the game again. This game was just as good as any RPG ever released on NES. It's the only game I ever loved that I never had the opportunity to finish. I looked for this game for years and never saw another copy. I learned a valuable lesson. If I rented a game from the video store that was not widely available and loved it, I just never returned it. My copies of Dragon Warrior 2 and 3 came from the video store. They were also hard to find. I hated paying new price for a used game, but I never let what happened to me with Destiny of an Emperor happen again.
Forgot to mention in my last comment, that if you notice the mention of "Shueisha" on the title screen, this game was actually an adaptation of a manga and anime in Japan called "Tenchi Wo Kurau", or "The Devouring of Heaven and Earth". Itself being an adaptation of RotTK.
i played this game on a VCD player when i was like 8 or 9 yo , and since the vcd didnt have a saving system i just replay the game from the start but i enjoyed it ... Nostalgia
Thank you very much for doing this. I love this game so very much, playing it now and then ^^ Oh. I remember one time recently I just fought Lu Bu instead of giving him the gem sword AFTER obtaining the gem sword... one character always had one less item space... d-don't do what i did
@@Xygor Dude, I never realized I got a reply from you. Something occurred to me only a bit after I made that comment though, and that is that you can fight Lu Bu and just not recruit him, fighting him I think a couple times more than you would if you had recruited him... but to do so, you either have to do the dumb thing I did by going into the cave to get the golden key... or you can just circumvent the cave, but you don't get guan ping... I really like that short time where you have Lu Bu, but at the same time I hate losing him. ARGHH... WHY CAN'T I JUST RECRUIT HIM LATER INSTEAD OF KILLING HIM?! GAHHH
Figuring out how to get into Shu after being stuck on that part for over a year, pre-internet of course was still one of my happiest gaming moments lol.
Always wished this battle format was used more often. Loved this game. Beat it in a 20 hour marathon when I was a kid. Definitely couldn't do that again!
Hey friend, I love your game reveal so much. I strongly recommend you to play the original Japanese version of this game. There are tons of secrets behind... You can face some terrible troop forces nearby LuoFengPo (Fallen Phoenix Slide) somewhere around cathedral where Zhang Ren stipulates. You can gain many EXP points and Food ratio rapidly in LuoFenfPo after defeating those terrible bandit forces...
@@Xygor have you played the second game a really weird code is walk through walls and I am really impressed with your knowledge on various games I watch and listen to all your advice on these games glad I am subbed to your channel!!
I got this randomly at a swap meet when it was new. Then found out about ROTK games, then the original 90's show... and then the actual history. Even went to China 20 years ago. I wouldn't know how anybody these days would get into the story unless they followed Dynasty Warriors.
This game is so massively unappreciated. I shout it out whenever I can with other old school NES enthusiasts. I might have some rose coloured glasses with nostalgia for this game but I still think people are missing out if they love the NES and have not played it.
Interesting approach to an army combat mechanic there. FWIW, "brigand" uses a "short i" vowel sound, so the "brig" syllable rhymes with pig. Brig-and, not bry-gand. Pretty much synonymous with bandit.
Lol chi tu ma. When I was a kid I never knew what it did but apparently it made whoever had it go first. There is an invisible stat called agility which dictated the attack order. I’m guessing it raised it to 255.
Oh really lemme look and ohh what an surprise.... An soulless rpg game like there toushand of game before... It even have inn and weapon shop... Like in any rpg game...and if you call your live point soldier... At least make it look like real..... And honestly an rpg game about the three kingdoms wars....
This game is criminally underrated. It's still my favorite RPG on the nes. I think it just never struck the popularity it deserved.
The box art and description left me wondering what kind of game it was. I would have totally got it if I knew.
Oh well

My favorite NES game and definitely the one I have the most nostalgia for. The music is forever imprinted on my brain.

Saw an ad for it in one my old comic books
I think they should remake Destiny of an emperor for Nintendo switch
I would love that!

It was so good!
Absolutely love this game. Nice video!
Glad you enjoy it!
this game was hard asf.
Interesting approach to an army combat mechanic there.
FWIW, "brigand" uses a "short i" vowel sound, so the "brig" syllable rhymes with pig. Brig-and, not bry-gand. Pretty much synonymous with bandit.
My favorite game from Nintendo for sure LuBu switching sides was the best
That was Lu Bu's thing for sure!
Great game, one of the beat on the nes.
Game looks cool might play it one day
Thanks!
Thank you so much, I really appreciate your support!
Only one thing im interested in... WHERE IS LU BU'S HORSE?!
Lol chi tu ma. When I was a kid I never knew what it did but apparently it made whoever had it go first. There is an invisible stat called agility which dictated the attack order. I’m guessing it raised it to 255.
