>Ninty said switch will get all japanese third party ga-

>>376542445
Because Nintendo has left the homeconsole market, that's why they made an overpriced tablet.
Kek even my ipad got better specs

>>376542445
Im sure Switch will get the new DW, it will just be watered down as fuck and look and perform like a PS2 DW game.

Switch can't even run it's own Zelda, so it won't be able to run stronger 3rd party games.

Heck, I think Skyrim might get canceled, that game had a ton of problems on past gen consoles.

>>376542445
Nintendo doesn't need third party support. Their consoles are not sold at loss, and they string out just enough first party support to turn a profit. Young children and hardcore Nintendo fans are fine having 4-5 good-to-great games over the span of the console's life, and are happy if they get anything more than that, so Nintendo's strategy works.

They can keep rolling the dice to see if they get a Wii-level breakthrough. If the console doesn't get that, they ditch it and move on.

There is nothing stopping Nintendo from releasing a new console in 2-3 years if the Switch starts underperforming.

>>376543151
>Nintendo doesn't need third party support.
They don't, but I do. If a console doesn't have third party support then I'll just buy it after it's finished and cheap as dirt.

>>376543250
But you aren't the console's target demographic. People who care about third party support or non-Nintendo exclusives aren't needed to make the console succeed, just casuals, children, and hardcore Nintendo fans.

>>376542445
Wait are they finally making a new musou that isn't held back by the PS3 and Vita?

>>376543323
I'm a younger adult who spends lots of money on games in a year and who actually bought a wii u. I'm pretty sure I fall somewhere in the target demographic, especially given the advertising they've done for the switch.

>>376543438
I have some bad news for you.

These games haven't been held back by anything but the devs not having any idea what to do with the franchise.

>>376543438
Yes. I imagine DW9 will the first real Musou game built for current gen consoles. Keep in mind everything so far was basically prettied up PS3 version because PS4 hadn't caught on as much in Japan. It helped them because they had last-gen versions to base Switch ports on, though.

>>376543495
>I'm a younger adult who spends lots of money on games in a year.

Believe it or not, you actually aren't Nintendo's demographic. Ninty has surrendered that group to Sony and Microsoft. What Nintendo wants is casuals who will buy the console, 1-3 games and be satisfied. They want kids who need the latest, hotest Mario and Zelda. They of course want their hardcore base, who spreads word-of-mouth like a preacher, to buy the console, too.

But you are not the main focus. They just need their console to strike gold and come across as cool. The Wii software adoption rate was pretty bad for how huge its install base was, yet Nintendo considers the Wii an overwhelming success, enough that they gave it a direct sequel just like the NES to SNES. They literally don't give a shit about a hardcore gamer who wants a well-rounded console.

No, they're getting Fire Emblem Warriors but not DW9 unless they downgrade the graphics just like they had to do with DQ Heroes 2.

DQH2 is honestly just Koei being fucking retards when it comes to optimization, the fact it looks worse than their Wii U title and runs worse is unforgivable.
In fact theirs no reason all Koei games shouldn't run 60fps on every system they are on.

>>376543495
You're Sony's target demographic, not Nintendo's.

Yes but you should wait for DW9+XL instead of buying the vanilla game.

>>376543738

Sorry, attach rates for all their consoles say otherwise. Wii had an attach rate of over 8 games per console, that's better than the PS4 and Wii U right now.

sony audience: 11-21
nintendo audience: 6-10, 22-40

DQH2 PS4 = Runs very well on PS4 hardware designed with 2012 hardware, equivalent to PC high and very high settings. Mostly 60 fps

DQH2 on PC = Runs well, best version, looks and is better than the first game by a significant amount.

DQH2 on Switch = Looks and runs terribly on 2016 hardware more powerful than PS4

There you go.

An open world Dynasty Warriors game will NOT run well on a Switch, especially with the ambitions they have for this game.

>>376542445
Can you post what is known about DW9 from the mag?

No they wont. Dont be a negative nancy

>>376545249

They don't make XL anymore. It'll be 9-II or something.

Gameplay Features
Open World - Overall
The reason why the team decides to make DW9 as Open World is they're taking challenges to make new things because as of the last numbered title (DW8), the series is coming to a stale.
DW9's Open World system takes some references from Toukiden 2, but it won't be the exact same because the nature of Open World in each games are different.
They plan to reproduce the whole lands of China, but with a focus on livable territories, and a further focus on places where major battles took place like Hulao Gate or Zhongyuan (Central Plains, Guandu etc)
Time & Weather will be changing in real time. In nighttime and/or rain it will be harder for enemies to notice the player. *NEW*

Open World - Cities
There will be over 10 major unique cities along with more generic towns & villages in the world map. *NEW*
The major unique cities such as Luoyang won't be as big as they were actually, but each area will be about 1 kilometer(square?) big so they should still feel large. *NEW*
Player can move into cities in the middle of battles.
Player should be also able to do purchases inside cities. *NEW*

Open World - Transportation
The main method for land transportation is by riding a horse, but a Fast Travel feature is also planned to be added. *NEW*
Swimming is confirmed returning from DW6. Player can also cross large rivers like Changjiang and Yellow River, although it may take about 5 minutes by swimming. *NEW*
Boats are also available as a faster transportation method to cross rivers. *NEW*

1MB, 2048x2048px

>>376546067
Story Progression
Story mode is back to character-based (like pre-DW7), but the history progression is basically the same for each character (like pre-DW6). *NEW*
There will be no What-If/Hypothetical branches that alter history here. *NEW*
Story progression is based on eras (Yellow Turban Rebellion, Anti-Dong Zhuo Coalition, and so on). *NEW*
The starting era will depend on the selected character. For example if you choose Wang Yuanji she will start in an era later than what Zhao Yun would start at. *NEW*
Due to the different starting era, switching player character in mid-game is currently unconfirmed because they would have to re-introduce the era again if the new character's starting era is different from the current era. *NEW*
Discussions in the world map will be pertaining to that era. For example if you go to Nanman during Yellow Turban Rebellion era, you will hear Nanman people talking about Zhang Jiao. *NEW*

Battles & Missions
Each era has a main mission that must be cleared to advance the era. (eg. Defeat Zhang Jiao in YTR era to advance to Dong Zhuo era) *NEW*
The main mission starts with having a high difficulty, but it can be lowered by clearing other missions related to the main mission beforehand. *NEW*
Multiple battles may occur at the same time in different places, and the player will have to make a choice on which battle they want to participate in. They are no longer split by stages.
Player can capture castles in various ways other than the orthodox-from-castle-gate method. For example they can raid the castle from a higher elevation (eg. mountains), or do a stealth infiltration to hit the main target without getting noticed by other enemies. *NEW*
There are also subquests such as hunting wild animals with archery and battling against foreign tribes (eg. Shanyue) that have unique visuals. *NEW*

>>376546162
State Combo
In the first interview, the team indicated that they are planning to revise the moveset system from what has been commonly known as Square for normal attacks and Triangle for charge attacks.
State Combo is the new moveset system that will change moves depending on the surrounding enemy situations. *NEW*
State Combo is comprised of the following 3 attacks: *NEW*
-Trigger attack: Begins the combo
-Flow attack: Combo that changes based on enemy situations
-Finish attack: Powerful attack that ends the combo
An example of how State Combo works is that when enemies are mid-air then the player character will jump towards them. *NEW*

Interactive Action
Actions will change depending on the surrounding terrains and objects. *NEW*
For example, player will be able to use field objects to attack, such as catapults. *NEW*
Player can also use a grapple hook to climb castle walls and high mountains. *NEW*
Player can utilize oil cans in field to cause fires. *NEW*

Other Action Revisions & Additions
The team has indicated that they want to keep some other systems like Musou attack to retain the exhilarating feel of one-vs-thousand
(Note: In DW8, all characters have 1st Musou, 2nd Musou, Aerial Musou and Awakening Musou)
Archery FPS mode from DW5 & before is returning & usable for all characters. It also lets the player to snipe enemies from afar. *NEW*

>>376546251
Miscellaneous
On 31 March 2017, Producer Suzuki held a poll on Twitter asking if the fans prefer Liu Bei with mustache or not. The poll ended with the mustache winning 67% of the votes.
Producer Suzuki also said to use the poll comments as reference, in which many are suggesting both versions of Liu Bei (young without mustache & older with mustache) to appear in DW9, just like in SW: Spirit of Sanada.
Character models are being reworked from scratch to fit PS4-grade graphics. *NEW*
Characters' new costumes in DW9 will have a tendency of getting less flashier and more geared towards realistic based on the costumes in Three Kingdoms era. *NEW*

They were and still are when compared to past consoles, but Wii U has something like 7.1 games per console and PS4 is now 7.5 per console or something close to that. Xbone I'm sure is lower than both, though.

The Wii had about 8.8 games per console, that's pretty good even if you consider that 100m of the games sold were pack-ins, and astounding when you realize most people still spout the meme that Wii owners didn't buy any games.

Maybe devs should stop focusing on production values and instead focus on fun.

Honestly, all these features combined with Empires could be really fucking dope. Can you imagine and open world game where you suddenly appear with your army while two other forces are battling to conquer/defend and área and you finish both of them off and keep it for yourself?

So, now you're saying it's not fair to compare them because it DIDN'T just last 4 years and people DIDN'T just buy four games and drop it?

Make up your fucking mind, you're directly contradicting yourself. You yourself said the Wii only lasted four years, how is it not fair to compare it to the PS4 now that its four years old? Are you admitting you were full of shit?

DW8XL

>>376551274
I'm too used to the empire management being turn based so I don't really see how would it work, at least as an officer, I see it being like M&B, just right click follow your marshall/ruler until they get into trouble, free officer seems obvious enough, just walk into towns and take missions or ask to join an army, maybe ruler is just you doing stuff and go back to the castle to start a battle or walk up to a battlefield and your army appears out of thin air


>>376551548
Can't decide on a clear winner, DW8XL, or 8 Empires but maybe check their spin offs like One Piece or Zelda as well, similar thing but each spin off seems to have something that tries to set it apart from the rest

For the old DW feel that the new one is trying to return to, go for Dynasty Warriors 5.

What's better in 4 than 5?

5 has a bigger roster, better visuals, higher enemy density, pretty sure it has more maps too, which campaign type you like is preference, and nothing else immediately comes to mind.
