I have to say, I’m fond of Samurai Warriors 5‘s story direction. Everything else is something you’ve seen for years now, only with a fraction of the movesets you’re used to doing them with. As for the new narrative direction, that actually works quite well. But, if you are intimately familiar, it’s an almost grievous problem in some ways.
Samurai warriors 2 for pc series#
Samurai Warriors 5 is mostly fine as a video game if you’re not intimately familiar with the series by this point. Even then, many of the unique actions are underwhelming. And only 27 of the characters have unique actions. If anything, it’s worse this time.Īs you’re no doubt aware, this reboot has nearly 40 characters, which isn’t too bad, considering that the last game had 55. Omega Force didn’t apparently take note of that, though, as it has done it again. Remember how upset everyone was with the cloned movesets in Dynasty Warriors 7? Remember how the fans were so mad that Omega Force ended up having to declone the entire cast for Warriors Orochi 3? Remember when it did it again in DW9, which is almost universally considered the low point of the entire franchise? Yes, we all remember that. Instead, Omega Force doubled down on one of its worst repeated design choices. I was hopeful that Samurai Warriors 5 would cast off the issues plaguing the franchise. New character designs, new takes on old ideas, etc. When Omega Force revealed that it was basically rebooting the series, I was fine with that. Samurai Warriors 4 has been one of my favorite games in the series since it came out seven years ago, and I was hoping that the developer would take some lessons from past mistakes and, at the very least, do what it did with SW4 again. I was highly curious to see what Omega Force would do after the missteps of Dynasty Warriors 9.
