Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends Review

General
(comes in while wearing Lu Bu's gear) Heya buds. How are things going? I'm doing good here as well. As you guys can see, I'm wearing out a new attire of which I enjoyed for a reason. I'm going to be reviewing a game that people would be looking forward to, which is none other than Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends. To explain more about it, it was a popular slashing game of which you get to play as the characters of the Three Kingdoms, which it took place in China. Not only it got popular with so many sequels, but there are even crossovers which had popular samurais from Japan along with a newly recent game that takes place in Hyrule called Hyrule Warriors.
In the Story mode, you get to play in which of the 4 Kingdoms to explore with, even including the characters that are not from the 4 Kingdoms along with the story of Lu Bu. Now for the Story mode, whichever you do on your path depends on what you're doing. So if you wish to head to the What If Path or an Xtreme Legends level, you would have to do certain conditions. If you do these conditions, they can be of a great help to you later on, which could change events or give you support. So it's like what's interesting about the Story Mode is that you can get many endings when you try out for each Kingdom if you wish to get to know more. Next is the Free Mode, which in thus, you can do these story mode missions as any character you wish, although there are powerful weapons that you can get depends on which missions that you do under these conditions. Once you done the conditions, the treasure will be brought for you to collect it. Once you get that, beat the mission, and there you go. It's now yours for you to use. Next is Ambition Mode, which is like Adventure Mode in Hyrule Warriors, except that you don't go through the map, but this time, you're building a kingdom that is more recognizable enough to be welcomed by the emperor himself by doing missions of which you can get items, allies, and fame to help you out there. Although there are animals that you can unlock by beating missions in a row, although the best recommendation is to not only play at a Beginner difficulty so that way you don't get a hard time, but also keep on saving more often for each mission because you don't want to be screwed over to unlock the animals after all of the trouble, even if you wish to get the best animal in the game, which was Red Hare because it's the only horse that never stops while going through crowds, so that way you have a more better time to do Free Mode with Red Hare around. Lastly is the Challenge Mode, which you would do any types of challenge like to see how many crowds of enemies you can take out, or make it to the end as fast as possible, or how many officers you can take out. Now what's good about it is that there is an online mode, of which you and another player can work together to accomplish missions. So if you wish to do more teamwork or needed help, then online mode will be the best help for you.
Now unlike Hyrule Warriors, Dynasty Warriors has a couple of things that Hyrule Warriors did not have. Including the Rock Paper Scissors style, which you have weapons that has elements of "Man," "Earth," and "Heaven." So if you're weapon is at a disadvantage, your opponent would not flinch that easily, if your weapon is even, it's like a one on one battle, and finally, if your weapon is at an advantage, you can hit your opponent enough until the weak point meter is gone to perform a Storm Rush, which not only it can help you slash quicker(as you mash the buttons), but also take out crowds of enemies as well. Not to mention that you can call an animal to help you out on your way, although you'll get a horse to start off with, although there are some animals that you can ride to help you travel faster or to help stop enemies from whatever they're doing.
So overall, even though it can be tough when you do a lot of missions, it was actually a very fun game. So for this one, I give this game a 9.8/10. So if you guys wish to give it a try, then go for it. You'll have a blast there. ^.^
So until then, I hope you buds have an awesome time there. (my tail wags as I hold the Sky Piercer Halberd and heads on the way) ^.^
