Great game, love causing damage to entire armies. Also men keep falling in love with you.

Perfectly set up to have your own created custom character..... this doesnt exist and that is a failure in an otherwise 9 out of 10 game.

This isn't the your usual DW game; unlike past games you don't play multiple officers, instead you play as a character named Ziluan. Most of the weapons in this game don't have the usual weak and strong attack patterns, but instead have their own unique mechanics. What I like about Origins is how they changed the officers to have a more grounded personality. My favorite out of all them has to be believe it, or not Dong Zhuo. How they portrayed him in this game is way better than the cartoonish fat bastard portrayal in older games. KOEI has definitely learned their lesson from DW9.

Out with the Han Dynasty, in with the Harem Dynasty That's right buckos, enter a world where *every* character wants a piece of you. Travel the world with your femboy wife as you kill tens of thousands of commoners in the name of peace, while getting sexually harassed by both male and female figures in the game. The ladies proposition you the first time you meet, the lords engage in maximum rizz to win you over. Swoon over Guan Yu's beautiful beard and question your sexuality during every interaction. Wonder, why you as a player character are an emotionless brick wall but still manage to be a godlike magnet for sexual tension. Leave every interaction feeling like you need to contact HR, and ponder "did they *really* just say that?" It almost feels like an intentional gag by the developers. Even Lu Bu; who's supposed to be the baddest mf'er in the series, channels his inner Lube Bu and goes as far as to say "I'm going to take you when I want you" in a cutscene interaction after maxing out his favor. Cringe at the corny dialogue, and don't leave your chair if you have company over after a Diaochan cutscene. 10/10 Gameplay 0/10 HR Nightmare

An amazing re-imagining of a great series. I've played every Dynasty Warriors game since the REAL original (Dynasty Warriors 2). The series has often been accused of being "another one of these" but real fans know that each game tends to add or subtract certain features that make each game unique. There are some real stand-out games (like 4 & 8) and some dogs (like 9). However, the series has never reinvented itself like this. The elephant in the room is that there is only one player character this time around and it's an OC. I thought this would mean the game was cheap and lacked content, but that is definitely not the case. Do I miss playing as Ziahou Dun or Zhou Yu? Sure I do. This is a cool idea for a single game, but personally I don't want to see this become the norm. Pros: This is the best playing Warriors game. Each weapon is like a character class with a complete suite of moves, "arts", and nice little quirks (for instance the lance can absorb enemy attacks and unleash them back, the wheels can be retrieved and perfect launched again for a massive bonus in damage). The music is stellar, the battles REALLY feel like battles and not just a video game map where you go from zone to zone fighting mobs. Soldiers will cheer and scream, charges on horseback feel amazing and fast, and the rain thunders down onto a siege to give the environment a muddy, hellish look. This is a gorgeous game. Character models look amazing and don't change the classic looks TOO much, the clothing and armor looks cool and the weapons look realistic and awesome. It also sounds amazing with a great soundtrack and the thunderous sounds of battle. The voice acting is hit or miss. Some characters like Cao Cao sound amazing, while others like Guo Jia sound like they are an AI just learning the English language (they're not, of course). Cons: The bond scenes are stupid. Whoever thought turning every single warrior's conversation into a barely veiled attempt to hit on the player character needs to have their head examined. It's weird when Cao Cao's wife implies she wants to elope with me, and just plain strange when Lu Bu tells me he WANTS me, ha ha. Keep in mind that EVERYONE is like this. It's crazy and downright hilarious. Too bad they ruined the opportunity to give these classic figures some life, humor, and give the player a reason to look forward to these scenes. I hated them almost universally. It should also be mentioned that the Ultimate Warrior mode (the hardest difficulty) is required for a ton of cool content and to complete the game. If you just play these games for the relaxation, keep this in mind. This game is a lot of fun. I'd say it's the best DW game in ages and would easily give it a 9 if you are a series fan, and 8 even if you are not and just wanted to try a cool action game.
