Total War Three Kingdoms

[Lawbringer]

As someone who watched Red Cliff and played Dynasty Warriors, I am beyond hyped.



My guess is that CA will carry over the hero units system from warhammer and instead of monsters and things, will have the legendary heroes such as Guan Yu play immense roles on the battlefield.

(Killing hordes of peasant soldiers like in DW  )

For those of you who aren’t familiar with the time period or lore, this is mideival China when it was split into different warring factions. The story comes from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which centers on three warrior heroes such as Liu Bei and Guan Yu, who make a pact to unite the land in the name of justice and compassion. The story has many legendary fighters who are a cut above the rest such as Lu Bu who can annihilate armies of men on his own. It’s all fun stuff and I’d recommend checking out Dynasty Warriors 7 Xtreme on Steam.

Same.

But it does look pretty cool for now, I do like the new age and culture, but I fear that they will take too much from Warhammer (like a story etc) which doesn't work in my opinion. They should keep it the way they have done it in Empire Divided with a few quests and stories for one character.

I'm looking forward to buying two dozen DLCs to have the full game

TW has a pretty good track record with Asian games

Glad to have something new to be honest rather than Empire 2 or Shogun 3, or TW3, etc.

I would like if CA was to implement the old city-building system. I'd also fancy the idea of getting a game about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, rather than just "normal battles" with standard generels and such. But I probably got influenced by all the time of me playing Dynasty Warriors.

They are obviously trying to appeal to the asian market since it will make them 10000 times more money than making a game for EU/NA.
If this goes well, which it mostly likely will, I do not see a reason for them to stop making games based in/with Asia either.   

I do not mind really, whether it is in Asia or not, it can still be a good game. Shogun was great.

INDIA BASED GAME NOW??!!!?!?

Seriously liking how they are making one in China as well, hope you can get lords to individually fight like in Warhammer.

Don't think so, since Shogun 2 e.g wasn't really successful in Asia (like most strategy games btw) and as far as I'm informed, most Total War games are censored or not even allowed in China (like many european video games). It's not as in the movie industry.
But I wouldn't mind CA getting money to make better games

Also, china fits the most when it comes to put a hero-system in a historical setting.
