Of course, that belies the commonality of shooter titles drenched in identical settings by dishonestly trying to pretend the number of years is more important than the quantity of titles.AzrealMaximillion said:Koei has been using that setting since 1985.
The big lump of WW2 games didn't come until the mid-late 90s. I think it's adorable that people keep forgetting that.
I'm amazed people are still taking the "Citizen Kane" thing seriously.Wolfenbarg said:But... all you did was defend the game on its own merits, not explain why it is the Citizen Kane of gaming. Defending it as good is one thing, defending it as a benchmark that every other serious game will inevitably be compared to it something else entirely, and I didn't see that at all. A second part incoming, perhaps?
No, it's not because it's repetitive.EverythingIncredible said:My beef with Dynasty Warriors is just that it is repetitive. I think that's what people mean when they say that Dynasty Warriors is a button masher.
Contra is not repetitive. And neither is Super Mario Bros. But I can understand if you like it.
Though, Koei has done not a damn thing to win me over. And I've tried. Oh, how I've tried to get into their style of games. But almost every one of their titles are either sub par or just downright boring.
Therumancer said:To be honest, I think one of the problems with games like "Dynasty Warriors" is the amount of money they are charging for them. These games are selling for the same, relatively high price, as other games that took more funds and efforts to develop. I think people would receive them better, and be less critical, if the prices were lowered comparitively to the actual production values of the game.
Isn't that also what has happens with Call of Duty? Oh wait your in WW2 for 1-2-3, Then 4 is modern war, then 5 is WW2 again, then 6 is modern war, then 7 is Vietnam, then 8 is modern war. So that makes it all different right?Togs said:Yes Dynasty Warriors is therapeutic, but its still shallow shovelware.
Im definately one of the haters but its not because I dont like the game its because I hate what Koei have done with the series, released the same game year in year out with an everincreasing number of minor but often ridiculous changes.
Never said it did, Im personally not a fan of CoD for similar reasons (plus I hate shooters).LostNightRecon said:Isn't that also what has happens with Call of Duty?
