True, but that still hasn't changed the fact that he didn't prove his statement.Akalabeth said:
Jimquisition: Dynasty Warriors Is The Citizen Kane Of Gaming
- Thread starter Jimothy Sterling
- Start date
I respect your opinion Jim, I still hate Dynasty Warriors. If I want to something that's fun, turn of my brain, and that embodies old-school beat'em ups, I'll just go and play Devil May Cry, God of War, and Bayonetta on Easy, hell I've had more fun with the Werehog in Sonic Unleashed than Dynasty Warriors. That's just me, I'm not hating or anything.
Oh god that video was so original. I want to give the Jimquisition money. Yes I want to give cash to Jim Sterling, as of 12 October 2011 9:23 pm. I want to give jim sterling money, real currency, for original entertainment.
Christ that video was so original, entertaining and coherent. I am going to Join a fraternity, get a job and find a girlfriend. ONLY because of Jim Sterling.

You forget one thing that the Warriors series has that these games don't. The thing that, for me, MADE old school beat 'em ups my favorite genre of the 16 bit era.ShadowRatchet92 said:
Multiplayer Co-op. As a standard.
Dynasty Warrior games are great, some must be considered instant classics. Though Koei does release some Dynasty Warrior games that are clearly beta tests for the next installment, so I suggest seeking out DW fans on which ones to buy. It can a Final Frontier / Wrath of Khan difference. My top suggestions are DW4 and DW7.
It surprises me to that people hate the Dynasty Warrior games, but reviewers often gives these games low sources and idiots that think reviewers are as god like as Jim pretends to be tend to repeat this belief blindly. I have actually been insulted for buying a DW game at a gaming store, by the person working there. I asked him why he didn't like DW games, and he really couldn't give me an explanation, it was just that he thought he was expected to look down on DW games.
Everyone knows what a multiplayer hack and slash is, imagine that on a battlefield with millions of soldiers, leveling up, and elephant riding. You know by now if that's something you'll like, DW is not going to disappoint.
By the way, it turns out "Red Hare" was his horse.

Are you going to go back to screwing sonic dolls and stop with the lame cartoon art now that your popular and dont have to pander to the escapist crowd?
I always enjoyed DW titles, but I can't justify paying $60 for every new addition to the franchise, just like sports titles. Maybe every third installment, so you can actually notice a lot of improvements and changes to the franchise.
I think it's unfair to just say all classic games are button-mashers when comparing it to DW. The classic games didn't have much of a choice, since there were only 2-3 action buttons that you could use anyway, so the gameplay had to be simple to adjust to limited controls and old tech.
But once again, I enjoy DW titles myself, because it still feels good to wipe out thousands of soldiers with a lance and some insane attacks.

I do enjoy a good DW smash up, but coming right out and saying that it has shallow narrative, no characters and crap story doesn't seem to fit very well with calling it
"the Citizen Kane of gaming."
Oh well. Trolls will be trolls I suppose. I've grown to like Jim's vids in the last few months so I'm glad he'll be on regularly.

Totally agree here. The fact that it's almost a 'bash one button' game doesn't put me off, it's the repetitive nature of it that made me lose interest. I don't hate it, but I just don't find fun anymore.EverythingIncredible said:
Oh good, you called it the Citizen Kane of Gaming, I wasn't aware that the film was graphically touched up and rereleased every year.
In all seriousness this might be the first episode of Jimquisition I liked. I'm still annoyed with Jim's style of claiming everyone else makes poor strawman arguments before going off to do the exact same thing, but it works somewhat here.
Way back in the day I remember playing Dynasty Warriors 3 with a friend for hours, and Jim's absolutely right, it's great stupid fun. I don't think anything will top the "MAAAAAGIC" line of the first level. But the problem isn't the one game, it's the series as a whole. It hasn't changed, it hasn't introduced new mechanics in any meaningful way, it's just slightly prettier with a few flashier moves.
I don't think it's too much to ask of a series for something to change besides the graphics.

Don't forget the constantly added scenes! >.>Virgilthepagan said:
Neither do I. fortunately, Dynasty Warriors really has changed things over the years. At least as much as any football game or shooter franchise.
