A clear statement of intent, because if the saga in itself tends to be directed to a loyal and very specific, this Xtreme Legends that expands the original concept seems only recommended for those who already had the seventh. We understand that Japan is a franchise that sells a lot, and these updates or expansions also sell very well, but in the West we have been better to include the contents of both games on one disc, having become a good opportunity for those who have missed April title or would like to test the series for the first time. But this has not been, and what it offers may well have been an extensive DLC, as its price, 50 €, it's not a bargain if we already have Dynasty Warriors 7. If you buy Dynasty Warriors on April 7, return to checkout to have new modes, weapons and characters, and enjoy the full experience DW7 true, it seems a bit expensive, and if we do not have this, do not recommend this , by disregarding the interesting story mode, possibly the best of the seventh installment of the series from Tecmo Koei. So who will recommend the game? It is complicated, and we believe it is a very focused and directed to the most loyal fans, or for some clueless who did not know of updates DW7, and paste the same thing a thousand blows with or without history.
The new features are three new characters, Guo Jia, Wang Yi and Pang De, two of them rescued from previous installments and Wang Yi joins the series for the first time, new fighting techniques, new weapons, and Legend and Challenge modes , and quite importantly, the ability to play all modes with two players, either locally or online. This allows us, if we load the hard Dynasty Warriors 7, playing the story mode between two players locally, something that could not be done in the title that came out in April. Legend mode and names the game is the most important of this release. At the beginning we chose some of the more than 60 characters, and then an assistant who will work in his role as deputy, will affect the way in which the castle town thrive in very different ways. Seen in this location, a small town with some people we lend a hand, to buy weapons and upgrade our skills, a place that will expand and improve as you progress. Once we want to go into battle, we have to talk to the guard of the city, and select mission.
46 missions that collect many battles of the Chinese historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, though of course the artistic license that Koei has always taken. Recover battlefields of previous installments in a saga already very extensive, recycling scenarios themselves, but the sum of missions is so great that no one seems to recover paste content from other Dynasty Warriors. Each mission has a valuation of stars, and then once you choose can also select difficulty, a total of six, with the new level nightmare, over difficult and chaos, and self-explanatory as the name itself describes . In this selection screen, if a second player presses start, will join the game and can play cooperatively in split screen. Battles with hundreds of enemies with offensive missions, defensive and complicated or general managers in gameplay that does not change anything DW7 basically, with the same vices and virtues, making it clear that expansion is a non-improving playable or technical section. The overly simple but fun combo system, the discreet visuals that is forgiven to the brutal amount of enemies and the fluidity with which he moves, and one of the biggest drawbacks that might well have made an effort to solve the horrible camera , who always manages to follow the action in the least appropriate.
The other new mode is the Challenge, in which small challenges to get points and then raise our brands in the online rankings, differentiating the scores achieved by playing alone or cooperatively. In Rampage, we must defeat as many enemies as possible for ten minutes, Bridge Melee vacuum pull all the enemies we can from bridges and platforms on which we fight, Speed Run is to cross the battlefield the fastest way possible, having to defeat many enemies to open doors that allow us to move forward, and finally Arena, fighting successive generals, the game's toughest rivals. There is also a gallery to see the characters, weapons, animal keepers, movies and events that go unlocked, a comprehensive encyclopedia and educational talks about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, a tutorial, and the option to remix, which will load data from Dynasty Warriors 7 if we have it, unlocking the important story mode and the Conquest. This version includes the option to enable stereoscopic 3D image, allowing us to choose English or Japanese voices, something that we should include all the games created in the country Nippon, and more on the PlayStation 3 version to have the Blu-ray that provides plenty of space. One drawback to add to this version, is that unlike what happened with the game appeared in April comes entirely in English.
A product for the fans too, which adds exciting improvements such as Legend mode or the ability to play locally with two players in all modes, but that ignores the Conquest so interesting and vital story mode, the main trick of the seventh installment. Without that, we can load its content, and together they make a very large and full of content, but it is hard to recommend a game, in total, and in just seven months, to be in full has had to spend about 100 euros. Yes, that's fine if you like this to hit so crowded Smite, but if we were to bet on one of two seventh installment, we are left with the proceeds of April, have an interesting plot development, above the average saga. If Koei wants to win converts and to popularize the series in the West, should have released a pack with both games, and not separately, something that works in Japan, but here it will not succeed. A very expensive additional content, which is lame if you face as a single title on disc, having no story mode. DW7 is a good qualitative leap in the series, but should not, at least in the West, have split into two pieces and offer less than eight months apart, something we think is clearly a mistake.
