Yeah, anyone can use anything. That's probably the only negative in my eyes, but it's not too bad

I'm so impressed with Koei. They actually managed to make another installment in the main series that damn near everyone likes.

I really thought they'd never be able to pull that off again.

do they all play the same?

do i just have to buy a weapon type once for all my characters? and how do new weapons work?

You can equip most weapons on most characters (male characters can't use whips, iirc), but they're not all similarly proficient with each weapon. They have 1-3 star ratings to determine how well they can use each weapon type, so someone like Sun Quan can't use clubs effectively, but he's a 'master' with swords. That sort of thing. Once you find/buy a weapon, you can equip it on each character.

The moves are pretty much the same no matter which character uses them, but each has a preferred type and they get EX moves when those are equipped. Everyone gets two unique musou attacks, too, so there are things there to keep them pretty unique and different from one another.

Just to expand on the weapon thing. The power and speed stats refers to the type of weapons. So someone with a high power and low speed could use weapons like the greatsword or pike well while being SOL with the twin swords. There is no way to change this outside of buying extra speed and power with SP. When you see a darkened out star on certain weapons that means you could buy the stat and that character to make them proficient with it. When a power weapon has 3 stars it gains extra range in the form of a whirlwind and a speed weapon gets what's like a jump cancel which aids in escape+combos. Men can't use/buy whips and women can't use/buy greatswords. Keep this in mind if you're trying to get all weapons. I think that combined with what's been said is pretty much everything you might want to know about weapons.

Each non-DLC weapon has a master seal which can be acquired though, which can give anyone 3-star proficiency with that particular weapon when equipped. So basically, anyone can efficiently wield all the non-DLC weapons.

i don't know what it is, but this game is SO MUCH MORE AWESOME than i remember dw being. granted, the last dw i played extensively was dw3. i bought samurai warriors when it came out, didn't get to play that much of dw5 but it felt like more of the same, that game sucked. dw gundam 2 was pretty meh, so i had given up hope on the series. good thing i checked this game out!

playing through the wu campaign right now.

sun ce so awesome

I'm so glad to see OTHER people enjoying Dynasty Warriors.

For so long I've been praising DW and the only person I remember ever being super into it as well was HM.

DW7 really gave the series the boost it needed.

Also, Zhou Yu the best always and forever

they're amazing

if they hit. i seem to miss a lot, even if i'm right next to people

so far for how fun they are:

zhou yu = sun quan > sun ce > sun jian > ssx > huang gai (i think those are all the characters i've played so far)

character-wise:

sun quan > sun ce > sun jian > zhou yu > ssx = huang gai

up next is gan ning, but i'm at work right now :(

you should check out dw7. it's pretty amazing.

just beat wu story mode. sun quan is pretty cool. too bad he seems kinda meh in battle.

You can get away with doing Hard Mode. It provides a good increase in difficulty, probably the best way to play it. Normal is too easy.

They give you stat boosts while they're equipped. You can stack them, too, by putting them on both weapons.

Wu's my favourite kingdom, but Wei was the best campaign for me. Though to be fair I enjoyed using Xiahou Yuan and Dian Wei (and Xu Zhu is fine once you change his weapon!).

And realo, insulted you don't associated me with DW, it's possibly my favourite game series of all time!

Shu's campaign is up there. I liked Wu, too, but I think Wei and Shu are a step above those two. Best ending is Wei by a ways, though!

so far wei campaign sucks compared to wu

generals are less fun (xiahou yuan, xu zhu, dian wei) and the plot is kind of less interesting. all things considered, i guess it makes sense. i'm expecting good stuff from shu!

They dish out more damage as well. Good Hard Mode.

Archers are the worst, probably worse overall than calvary because they're more frequent.
