The Dynasty/Samurai/Gundam/Hokuto no Ken (Fist of the North Star) Warriors thread

So how bout dat One Piece Musou? Anyone planning on getting it?

Yuan Shao A Tier? Joan of Arc S Tier?? Who made this?! Why the hell is Meng Huo so low? I can solo with him on Chaos and not even use Musou. I’d take this list with a grain of salt.

Yep.

I was wondering why Xiahou Ba is S+ Tier…Looks like I’m gonna get this ā€œNinjas Unitedā€ map.

Of course.

Two words: special move. Normally he’s kind of ass, but activate his special move and his attacks get the speed of Nu Wa with the power of SW2 Musashi aka one broken ass mofo.

What makes Nu Wa so busted?

So some WO2 Kunoichi shit?

Honestly I don’t know that myself as I haven’t really used her outside of getting her Proficiency to S rank.

No. WO2 Kunoichi was more like Vanilla MVC3 Phoenix. By herself she didn’t do much damage, but with her powerup she was broken. Basically, she was more or less useless if she didn’t have meter. Xiahou Ba on the other hand can hold his own and hits like a truck on his own. His ability just adds Nu Wa tier speed and even more power to his attacks.

Nu Wa being power is why she’s ā€œbustedā€. She’s still fast and now plows through people without getting interrupted during her combos.

Searching for the right place to put this. Found it yesterday while listening to the Theme Song in the movie version, this showed up as a related youtube video.

Grappler Baki + Martial Arts manga, topic I see in GD, perhaps not there after looking around it.
Standard Anime and Manga thread? There is lots of talking about the boxset and its shown, looks cool with the cover art ā€œjdmā€ style heh.

Anyway, just going to post it, since this has HnK / North Star in the title at least, though its on the new games.

Listen only to the announcer not hype at all in a monotone voice saying yatatatata, then skip to 3 minutes in for a display of how the VA (thats the real guy?) does it. You’d think they would just double it up on the soundtrack maybe… glad to be proven wrong. Good show, man.

DW7: Empires got delayed in Japan…from September to November.
For quality/balancing reasons of course.

I don’t think this will affect the NA scheduled release date…then again that release date isn’t solid.

Xu Shu’s moveset looks boss…can’t wait for this game.

Does Delay = more decloning?

Zoro vs. Mihawk…

A sequel already? I still need to crack the seal on WO3.

Got my 1000/1000 in Warriors Orochi 3 just now, feels pretty good. A disappointing thing is that the game doesn’t have an in-game clock so I can see exactly how many hours I clocked, but from what I could tell, it felt right around 65 hours. Faster than DW7 (75 hours) and WO2 (80 hours?), but still took longer than DWG3 (55 hours). My Warriors fix has been quenched now, at least until One Piece comes out.

Interesting thing I read @ KoeiWarriors about the CAW system in DW7:Empires.
Apparently it looks like not only can you replace generic generals with CAWs w/o gender restrictions…but you can do the same to UNIQUE characters.

What that means is that even the DW7/XL playable cast can be replaced with CAWS.

Quite interesting.

I seriously need to plat XL before Empires hits, which is turning out to be hard since I can’t stop playing P4A. :frowning:

This bit of info would’ve made it officially day one buy for me if it wasn’t PS3 exclusive.

Sounds dope. I can finally rectify all the designs I don’t like. Going to make Liu Bei into a huge badass like his brothers, & make the Qiaos into big-tittied skanks.

EDIT: If you can also use whatever gender you like, I’m sure someone (probably Japanese) will go through the painstaking process of rule 63’ing the entire male cast :lol:.

Finally playing WO3. I have no idea what’s going on in the story since I didn’t play 2 and the voices aren’t in English. I don’t have time to read text boxes.

Note: I already expect most of the females ie. Xiao Qiao to sound annoying as fuck in Japanese with typical anime schoolgirl voices, but I’m hoping none of the BAMF characters sound like bitches in jap. (Lu Bu, Xiahou Dun)
