I understand this was in the nobunaga era but I wish they had more playable characters but much of the roster in previous samurai warriors games came after nobunaga's time so its understandable.
Wait seriously? Even Keiji? Cuz I rlly wanted to see the whole new style they give him. I say keep faith though cuz they’re releasing more story beyond Nobunaga’s story. *dingers crossed.
@@LBTeeh yup Keiji is not in the game his horse is but not him. I suspect koei will release a samurai warriors 5-2 like they did with 4, that will include new characters and stages. he might be included then.
Nobunaga already has several games following his story, which I'm not sure why they choose a main SW game to represent that even further. They should have just followed the story around everyone, like all previous titles just adding characters and actually improving the gameplay. It just feels like that slap SW4 and OPPW4 together while removing mechanics that 4 had. SW5 just feels like a downgrade
@@MatsuKaZa67 while I like the style they went with, I hated that there were barely any playable characters compared to the previous installments plus cloned movesets I despise cloned movsets.
@@Nightstriker995 I couldn’t agree more. I wish we could have a game on Orochi or something. What’s Tadakatsu’s story? Or Keiji, Hanzo, Kotarō Fūma n a lot more lol maybe a few missions(3-5)covering each characters story.
@@conradojavier7547 I think it would be better to focus on Zhao Yun, because he is a true warrior and a warrior of justice! Unlike Liu Bei and Cao Cao, Liu Bei is a leader who follows Cao Cao, and Cao Cao is an assassin who stabs leaders in the back! He was saved many times by the power of luck alone, and eventually his kingdom fell to the traitors of Jin.
I hope so.. only one character remain for the next update! I think it's "Masayuki Sanada" because it is the only character who lived during the Nobunaga era.
@@SajedG yeah okuni been the face of SW for a long time, she is too iconic to be left out tbh but I kinda get it bc the game’s story revolves around nobunaga, let’s just wish we will see her on SW6 or WO5 😭
@@raihan106 I think the game will focus on "completing the events" from SW5 to SW6. Therefore, many characters will appear such as: Masayuki Sanada, Yukimura Sanada, and Kunoichi.
I'm hoping they add more of the original roster back in as DLC, if they really can't do a free update. Some of the characters removed existed during Nobunaga's time, so it doesn't make sense they're gone. At the very least I hope they create "mature" versions of the characters. I'm not fond of everyone looking like a pretty boy, and Tadakatsu is far from the beast he use to be.
There are only 4 characters i like so far...which is enough for me. Nobunaga Oda, Mitsuhide Akechi, Mitsuki, and Hanzo Hattori. Samurai and Ninjas ftw.
I could understand the redesigns and such, but did they really have to swap out the voice cast for some of these guys? They could've kept Oda's original voice for his aged edition.
After playing this game for around 15 or so hours. I actually really enjoy this over some more recent entries despite it's small size. Even though characters don't get their own weapons, each movelist for each weapon is really fun and unique. Each character unique moves are there ad a little personal spin that makes it stand out. The plot also has some melodrama that makes it a more coherent story and give Nobunaga and Mitsuhide some character arcs.
The weapons was a turn off for me, experience it in DW. Could have gave them their unique weap and then one alternative that's unique also, rather than sharing. For a current warrior game the roster is small, so two unique moveset wouldn't be overload.
@@icantbelieveitsnotbutter8851 same as me, this is the biggest turn off for me, i cant believe one weapon/fighting style used by many characters. the originality n uniqueness of character is no longer exist. no excitement to use certain character since you can just use oda, n u can fight like azai, tokugawa, and everyone. in the past we use certain character because of their weapon and fighting style. i hope next game they changed this, every character has right to wear their own fighting style, even if they use same weapon like katana, spear, or naginata, but fighting style must be different. its no use having like 50 char if half of them using same weapon
@@oky_joss Exactly, you can have 100 characters but if you have 12 weapons that are attached to moves. In reality you have 12 character with 100 characters that have one unique musou move musuo
Oichi went from Kid in SW2 and earlier then lady 3 onwards… now she's back into teen. And then there's the older looking Magoichi for some reason. But yeah, seeing this new roster they look even more anime-like than ever. Which makes me wonder how dw10 will be like if it follows suit.
She was only 35-36 when she died, and that was a few years after the Honnoji incident which is when this game ends. Did you not notice the super young Ieyasu as well? Because he was a young teen when Nobunaga captured him from the Imagawa so that is finally reflected here. As for Magoichi, that was merely the name adopted by the current leader of the Saika mercenaries. There was no one singular Magoichi Saika, so they can do whatever they want with him, even make him a woman (Sengoku Basara).
Actually the cast is almost as big as the one in Samurai Warriors 3, more than i though it would be, still i am sad for all the characters they excluded.
Me: "Going to be interesting how characters like Kunoichi and Gracia look in this game" *Kunoichi and Gracia are absent from the roster* Me: "Great, so there has been a MASSIVE cutdown"
Funny thing is Keiji, Mitsunari and Fuma are all present in the Nobunaga era, tho quite young but are still present (as for Fuma the guy himself is a mystery with many myths and legends surrounding him so he could fit in both Nobunaga and post-Nobunaga era). Also Nene too, but since historically she isn't a fighter, i guess Koei decide to retcon her from the new reboot era. Sad indeed.
I'm gonna play this but ... Mitsunari ... Yoshitsugu .. Kanetsugu ... Masamune ... Aya ... they cut ALL my favourites. Also, WHERE'S RANMARU?? He existed in this era!! I'm gonna hope that 1,2, 3, and 4 were all one era and this is the next, with subsequent games focusing on different parts of the sengoku period, rather than a complete reset. It would break my heart of Koei tries to erase the old games and characters from existence. Please, they're my childhood. Also I don't want them to change much. I do like some of the character changes (I prefer this version of Kenshin, for example) but I'm hugely attached to the old cast the way they are!! Why did Oichi have to turn into a baby again?
This takes place well before Date's and Yukimura's time. Ranmaru also was never actually a fighter, just a retainer. He got swapped out for Yasuke, who actually was a warrior that fought in service of Nobunaga
So no ginchyo Tachibana :( This is my first samurai warriors game. Played plenty of dynasty and orochi and some spin offs. My fave is orochi warriors 4. But it really makes other warrior games feel small
Right orochi has so much more content and guest characters if it had English dub it would be way better tho I’m tired of koei laziness no dub clones not changing movesets just give them a new boring weapon online sucks because u either can’t progress and get characters or u have to beat the stage before you play on story with someone else not be on that stage beat it what’s the point it’s an easy fix do they not realize this people complain they don’t listen finally the difficulty system sucks no point to play on hard when u can play on easy and get the same amount of rewards in sam 5 but like u said warriors games make any other game look terrible I’d rather have a orochi game every time instead of any dynasty samurai games at this point they know orochi is gonna be the best seller so they have to lift a finger for once
Same on my first samurai game to idk if I’m buying another one now lol I like the art and stuff but the bs I listed Is never being worked on thanks koei u know how to drive away everyone at this point fuck u and ur 1000 clones
@@mrthanos8140 I don't think it's laziness for them not to add dub, it saves money and they would have to hire English voice actors for most, if not every character for ex WO4U has 170 characters. They could pull the cast that voiced DW games, but for samurai warriors, that last one I played that had dub was SW2 empires back on ps2, I didn't play SW3 so I SW4 was the first I played with sub. I mean they already translated to English, and it's possible to not read everything as the battle progresses, but you know what I do?

If you aren't a fast reader and don't want to pause to game to read what you missed then I guess you're just sol my guy. I don't know about future DW games but they probably aren't going to go back to dub for SW. However! I will say Nobunaga's English voice up until warriors orochi 2 was very fitting. I hated his voice in WO2 and Hideyoshi's
I used to be a Basara 2 player, and now I'm trying to play SW5, and my reaction is like, what? This is very different, the character designs are quite ordinary, and again, Oda Nobunaga is the main character, hahah, it surprised me. I didn't like it in Basara 2, but now I love it in SW5, the story is intriguing.
Oh man it hurts my brain looking at random young versions of these characters. Lady No without claws? Tiny baby Ieyasu along with a young Tadakatsu and Hanzo? Yoshimoto without his kemari ball!? It's cool they included Yasuke though.
Hanzo without his chain sickle (Kusarigama) is a bit of a disappointment as well, but his new weapons and abilities are still great. It would be nice if we could have had alternative outfits for him, like from the first game and or second in particular, or something even new.
Idk how they had an Oda-focused game and decided to not include Ranmaru.. :( Sure, I get he didn't have much of a role - but we've seen him be a big Oda character since SW1, a loyal bodyguard to Nobunaga, and this could have been time for him to shine/get spotlight.
Ok the shared weapons for a lot of characters was one thing, but why so many generics, couldn't even give them ultimate skills or unique attacks. Just saying as much as I would enjoy the game, those are wasted slots.
@@MatsuKaZa67 Not defending Samurai Warriors 5 having clones but there hasn’t really been many Dynasty or Samurai Warriors games with every character having a NEW unique moveset. The games with the biggest variety of movesets, WO4, SW4 and DW8, all copies movesets from previous games and slightly changed them. Saying SW4 had unique movesets for all character thus SW5 should isn’t really too fair on SW5 since 4 essentially copied moveset from SW3, and only added hyper attacks and new characters movesets.
@@TriAzF reused movesets are fine. I'm pretty sure most if not all samurai characters have the same moveset from their origins game. I know Nobunaga in sw4 has the exact same moveset from sw1 just with a few new things added in. They should have just should have just done that instead of limited them to weapons. I haven't the chance to play SW3, but I can't imagine it being too different from 1&2. DW has had many changes to their combat system. And personal I've always like SW more, because it seemed a bit more advanced than DW, not just swords, spears, and pikes you could also swim and climb latters in SW before it was introduced in DW. Hopeful if they make a SW5XL or Empires, they will give everyone their respective weapon
They are more focused on Nobunaga Era. From the way they start this reboot, I believe SW 6 will be Hideyoshi Toyotomi and the final one is Ieyasu Tokugawa.
Mitsuki, Yasuke, Sena, Sandayu Momochi, Toshimoto Saito, Shikanosuke Yamanaka, and Kazuuji Nakamura are all brand new. On top of that, Nobuyuki Oda, Motonubu Okabe, Katsuyori Takeda, Motoharu Kikkawa, Terumoto Mori, Dosan Saito, Yoshitatsu Saito, Yoshikage Asakura, Yoshiyaki Ashigaka, and Fujihide Mitsubuchi are also all playable "unique" NPC characters. So of the 37 playable characters, literally half of them are brand new or playable for the first time with unique models.
My fav character Ginchiyo also didn't make it into this game and for some reason now they're targeting the Anime Fanbase with their game why???? I'm loosing lots of interest in SM6 already
Hanzo and mitsuhide, And hideyoshi and I think magoichi, edit: since release the game was ok, I think being spoiled with the bigger games ruined the shorter ones a bit lol.
The last time I played Samurai Warriors Ieyasu Tokugawa was not a cute pretty boy. He was an intimidating middle aged leader. What happened? Or is this game taken place when he was younger?
I find that hard to believe that some of the characters that I recognize from Kessen 3 look so very different from their Samurai Warriors counterparts.. The Oda that i know is very different from the Oda of Samurai Warriors.. Because I'm surprised some characters i see made it in here..
@@bobtista88 From what I can tell, Shingen looks much younger here. If anything Masayuki maybe could work in this timeline but they already covered the Sanada story in SoS.
bought the game out of curiosity yesterday. hoo boi. where do I begin? the reduced roster. yeah they added maybe 10 new faces but at the cost of 20 so... that's not even counting the ones that were playable in SoS. it feels a bit like a return to an old habit of redacting toons/battles from the previous game. remember how we never got another map for Azuchi Castle after the first SW? Remember how goemon and kunoichi vanished from the franchise? and then kojiro and musashi did? Remember how Okehazama got reduced to a cutscene for nobunaga before it became a playable level for sw2xl? I will say some characters got some much needed adjustments, such as toshiie noh and hideyoshi as their old moves and weapons sucked. finally nice to see a naginata actually used by a toon that isn't a CaC from the first SW. That said some were also changed for the worse . I.E. why is yoshimoto imagawa who used to be a gag toon suddenly Warhammer welding and acting more like the demon king than the actual demon king? speaking of which why did they decide to make nobunaga more "fool of owari" than "demon king?" is it a throwback to Kessen 3? also his sword is greatly missed.
He's called fool of owari at first because the incident that makes him to be called the demon king is after he do cruel things like burning the Mt. Hiei
@@gaidenhexus2081 I've literally studied Nobunaga since I was 14, but thanks for telling me theres something finally worthwhile on Netflix. Unfortunately most documentaries on the Samurai skim over a lot of things, like the real end of the Sengoku Jidai, Hideyoshi's bad ideas in peacetime, etc.
Honestly loved this variation of the game but I just wished that the characters after Yasuke had their own unique combos. Wouldn’t it make sense for Dosan Saito or Yoshikage Asakura to have their unique combos? Was heavily disappointed that they didn’t.
Honestly if the old characters kept their old weapons with a few exceptions and the new characters got the new weapons and other modes besides citadel mode it might have been a samurai warriors game.
Sad to see they add nobodies like yasukewhogivesafuck and ignore other bigger characters like Keiji and Yukimura... sure timeline wise Yuki might be too young but thats not something you can say about Keiji.
Actually Yasuke was an important person during them times and they're just finally acknowledging it but yeah, I agree that there are some characters that could've been just background characters seeing how they have a very limited move set.
@@RedVenomCorp correct me if im wrong but it seems like ALL characters are background character, with the huge focus on Oda and Akechi. dont get me wrong i love but Oda and Akechi but this just seems like a huge shit on the fans that was with it since SW1. Been watching some reviews and seems very lackluster limiter characters modes etc. what is there to do after "Story mode" is concluded?
Understandably correct lol. Most are yeah since it primarily focus's on those two. This game was a big release but I too feel a bit let down for a number of reasons. Feels like it's just a story for them and the rest are there to fill the roster but yeah, there's more to do after story. Both stories are pretty decent in length. Then you unlock Reverie Chapter which is at least 4 or more hours extra. Also there's the Citadel mode which adds a lot of gameplay value as well with all of the various shops you can access and upgrade as well as unlocking character events.
@@Deport_All_nonWhites if you think that's all he was then that's BS. I can talk for hours explaining the history and importance for ALL of these characters because I know and RESPECT the true history of the said timeline. He's no Yukimura for certain but he isn't a nobody. Do more research.
How Masayuki Sanada, Nobuyuki Sanada and Yukimura Sanada weren't added in this ? While Tadakatsu Honda is there. Those 3 lived around Nobunaga Oda's conquest and already be the vassal of Shingen Takeda. What a dull
So where's Keiji? Didn't he serve Nobunaga at one point? At least in Samurai Warriors 1 he did and even in 2 for Yukimura's first mission Keiji betray's Nobunaga from the start. In 1 he was the Lu Bu character of the game until Tadakatsu got an actual character model in XL.
From what I've seen in the JP version so far (from other uploads on UA-cam), there are some additional stages, weapons and horses, as well as a bgm pack with three tracks. Also, the SW1 costumes of Nobunaga and Mitsuhide (that are featured in the video) are DLC costumes. Apart from that, I'm not entirely sure. Except for a season pass, and the confirmation from the games producers (via Siliconera's website) that there won't be any additional characters. Although they did say that if the game does well, then there will be a sequel game (I'm guessing similar to SW4-II).
I kind of agree. I like that the cast is smaller cause it's easier to focus on the fewer characters, BUT. The ones they cut ... ALL my favourites. ALL of them. No Mitsunari, Masamune, Yoshitsugu, Aya, Kanetsugu, Kai, and I'm not his big fan but no Yukimura. Yes, they weren't active in this era, but RANMARU?? No excuse
Yoshimoto is literally the best redesign in the game and now has a great presence as a villain for the Oda.

I've always loved the noble and reserved Tadakatsu Honda. He seems to have a different vibe going on there... fine with me.
Me, crying because I won't get to see the ladies harass Ranmaru into an all female fight anymore.
Idk how they had an Oda-focused game and decided to not include Ranmaru.. :(
Sure, I get he didn't have much of a role - but we've seen him be a big Oda character since SW1, a loyal bodyguard to Nobunaga, and this could have been time for him to shine/get spotlight.
@@SajedG omg precisely!!! You said exactly what I couldn't think of in that moment. Lmao
Damn Yoshimoto looks badass, stil salty that they changed Toshie Maeda weapon, he is my main character ever since samurai warrios 2 XL
Excluding Ranmaru from the roster was a huge mistake! We need our beautiful gay icon ❤
No cap I was lookin for yukimura but the fact they got yasuke in there makes up for it

I'm so happy they add Yasuke in this game.
I am too.
We don't need your kind in japanese games
No Kunoichi. I'm sad.
Run with Mitsuki and you'll be fine lol
Where's kotaro fuma 😭
My favorite charapter
No se inglés ;-;
Ok the shared weapons for a lot of characters was one thing, but why so many generics, couldn't even give them ultimate skills or unique attacks.
Just saying as much as I would enjoy the game, those are wasted slots.
There's no excuse for it when SW before this every character had their own weapon. Even warriors orochi with 170 every character is unique
@@MatsuKaZa67 Not defending Samurai Warriors 5 having clones but there hasn’t really been many Dynasty or Samurai Warriors games with every character having a NEW unique moveset. The games with the biggest variety of movesets, WO4, SW4 and DW8, all copies movesets from previous games and slightly changed them. Saying SW4 had unique movesets for all character thus SW5 should isn’t really too fair on SW5 since 4 essentially copied moveset from SW3, and only added hyper attacks and new characters movesets.
@@TriAzF reused movesets are fine. I'm pretty sure most if not all samurai characters have the same moveset from their origins game. I know Nobunaga in sw4 has the exact same moveset from sw1 just with a few new things added in. They should have just should have just done that instead of limited them to weapons. I haven't the chance to play SW3, but I can't imagine it being too different from 1&2. DW has had many changes to their combat system. And personal I've always like SW more, because it seemed a bit more advanced than DW, not just swords, spears, and pikes you could also swim and climb latters in SW before it was introduced in DW. Hopeful if they make a SW5XL or Empires, they will give everyone their respective weapon
Oh they deleted many important characters in the previous ver like Fuma, Nene, kunoichi, even Yukimura
Samurai Warriors 5 had no additional characters
They are more focused on Nobunaga Era. From the way they start this reboot, I believe SW 6 will be Hideyoshi Toyotomi and the final one is Ieyasu Tokugawa.
Mitsuki, Yasuke, Sena, Sandayu Momochi, Toshimoto Saito, Shikanosuke Yamanaka, and Kazuuji Nakamura are all brand new. On top of that, Nobuyuki Oda, Motonubu Okabe, Katsuyori Takeda, Motoharu Kikkawa, Terumoto Mori, Dosan Saito, Yoshitatsu Saito, Yoshikage Asakura, Yoshiyaki Ashigaka, and Fujihide Mitsubuchi are also all playable "unique" NPC characters. So of the 37 playable characters, literally half of them are brand new or playable for the first time with unique models.
I'll wait till sw6.
where tf is Ranmaru Mori?😭 he’s my favorite character since SW1 & WO1 wtfff
My fav character Ginchiyo also didn't make it into this game and for some reason now they're targeting the Anime Fanbase with their game why???? I'm loosing lots of interest in SM6 already
@@khebre6032 Why she should be here?she probably wasn't even born when this game end at Honnoji.
Only 4 girl characters (I think?) give me Naotora li and nene back!! :(
I haven't play Samurai Warriors since 2 why all the characters look redesign anime looking?
This is a reboot, they wanted to take it in a different narrative direction than SW1-4.
They're trying to target Anime fans and audience and are abandoning us
SW2 is best
No miyamoto disappoints me bring back the old designs even the storylines were more better played out
I miss they unique weapon its just like dynasty now atleast yoshimoto look way better here... waiting for empires version of this game.
my favourite character OICHI !!! cant wait to play 🤞🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
Oh man I can't wait till Tuesday till I can get my hands on this game
Who will you play with the most?
Short character list unliked the previous Samurai Warriors and they don’t even have Yukimura. I am so disappointed
Hanzo and mitsuhide, And hideyoshi and I think magoichi, edit: since release the game was ok, I think being spoiled with the bigger games ruined the shorter ones a bit lol.
@@jamalstar4243 I dunno I have to try there playstyles and find out 😆
@@falloutkage6684 Right; why is the character list so tiny? 😔
having only 4 female characters out of 32 or so characters is wild
i wish they have Naotora li in this game.
God please, NOOOOOOOOOOO ,NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
The only one I don't miss. But yeah, I wish all the characters would return
The last time I played Samurai Warriors Ieyasu Tokugawa was not a cute pretty boy. He was an intimidating middle aged leader. What happened? Or is this game taken place when he was younger?
Taken place when he was younger. This was when Nobunaga was in his punk phase/teen years.
I find that hard to believe that some of the characters that I recognize from Kessen 3 look so very different from their Samurai Warriors counterparts.. The Oda that i know is very different from the Oda of Samurai Warriors.. Because I'm surprised some characters i see made it in here..
They did Nō dirty
Sw4 Nō would kill sw5 Nō.
@@azureascendant994 would absolutely end this little anime girls life I’m still mad about this design choice
I thought the same
I get why Bontemaru was cut, but I don't like it lol. Give us the Dokuganryu back for sure
I miss madamune so much
Magoichi Saika his voice doesn't change
The only thing I care about is to have DLC create a character
Honestly, I am not sad so bought game after August...because Nobunaga and Mitsuhide costumes from SW1 quite cringe. I more wait from SW2.
Wow no yukimura sanada? He's not my favorite character but damn they did him dirty here
This game is set in Nobunaga's time, so there's no Yukimura or other characters after this time period
@@mazafakabitch1113 I always figured if the Takeda Clan was there so was Yukimura I saw there's a season pass so they might work him in later
@@bobtista88 From what I can tell, Shingen looks much younger here. If anything Masayuki maybe could work in this timeline but they already covered the Sanada story in SoS.
@@bobtista88 from what I’ve seen no new characters will be added in dlc
bought the game out of curiosity yesterday.
hoo boi. where do I begin?
the reduced roster. yeah they added maybe 10 new faces but at the cost of 20 so...
that's not even counting the ones that were playable in SoS.
it feels a bit like a return to an old habit of redacting toons/battles from the previous game.
remember how we never got another map for Azuchi Castle after the first SW? Remember how goemon and kunoichi vanished from the franchise? and then kojiro and musashi did? Remember how Okehazama got reduced to a cutscene for nobunaga before it became a playable level for sw2xl?
I will say some characters got some much needed adjustments, such as toshiie noh and hideyoshi as their old moves and weapons sucked. finally nice to see a naginata actually used by a toon that isn't a CaC from the first SW.
That said some were also changed for the worse . I.E. why is yoshimoto imagawa who used to be a gag toon suddenly Warhammer welding and acting more like the demon king than the actual demon king? speaking of which why did they decide to make nobunaga more "fool of owari" than "demon king?" is it a throwback to Kessen 3? also his sword is greatly missed.
He's called fool of owari at first because the incident that makes him to be called the demon king is after he do cruel things like burning the Mt. Hiei
Watch the Netflix Documentary about the Samurai. You will find out everything about Nobunaga.
@@gaidenhexus2081 I already watch it. It's really cool, but also cruel at the same time
@@gaidenhexus2081 I've literally studied Nobunaga since I was 14, but thanks for telling me theres something finally worthwhile on Netflix. Unfortunately most documentaries on the Samurai skim over a lot of things, like the real end of the Sengoku Jidai, Hideyoshi's bad ideas in peacetime, etc.
Honestly loved this variation of the game but I just wished that the characters after Yasuke had their own unique combos. Wouldn’t it make sense for Dosan Saito or Yoshikage Asakura to have their unique combos? Was heavily disappointed that they didn’t.
Where in Jigoku is Keiji? Let me guess they added Matsukaze? Anyway?😭
Idk how I feel about Mitsuhide
Damn new sw games short and money driven
If only we get senguko basra on western serves
I got the game yesterday and I am enjoying it
Glad to hear!
Acho que ficou muito estilo anime. O Nobunaga transmitia uma aurea sombria, agora com esse visual... não mais.
Honestly if the old characters kept their old weapons with a few exceptions and the new characters got the new weapons and other modes besides citadel mode it might have been a samurai warriors game.
Sad to see they add nobodies like yasukewhogivesafuck and ignore other bigger characters like Keiji and Yukimura...
sure timeline wise Yuki might be too young but thats not something you can say about Keiji.
Actually Yasuke was an important person during them times and they're just finally acknowledging it but yeah, I agree that there are some characters that could've been just background characters seeing how they have a very limited move set.
@@RedVenomCorp correct me if im wrong but it seems like ALL characters are background character, with the huge focus on Oda and Akechi. dont get me wrong i love but Oda and Akechi but this just seems like a huge shit on the fans that was with it since SW1. Been watching some reviews and seems very lackluster limiter characters modes etc.
what is there to do after "Story mode" is concluded?
Understandably correct lol. Most are yeah since it primarily focus's on those two. This game was a big release but I too feel a bit let down for a number of reasons. Feels like it's just a story for them and the rest are there to fill the roster but yeah, there's more to do after story. Both stories are pretty decent in length. Then you unlock Reverie Chapter which is at least 4 or more hours extra. Also there's the Citadel mode which adds a lot of gameplay value as well with all of the various shops you can access and upgrade as well as unlocking character events.
@@Deport_All_nonWhites if you think that's all he was then that's BS. I can talk for hours explaining the history and importance for ALL of these characters because I know and RESPECT the true history of the said timeline. He's no Yukimura for certain but he isn't a nobody. Do more research.
They twinkified Ieyasu omg 😭
Where is Gracia?! :(
Looks good but the character are not enough 😭
How do you get the dlc weapons? Do you have to finish the campaign or?
They should work after the update
Where is keiji maeda ????? Fr ???
Excellent as always if it has slash finishes like the showdown it's an instant winner keep gaming strong man keep the excellent content coming 👍👍
Appreciate it
Where is masamune date? :c
How Masayuki Sanada, Nobuyuki Sanada and Yukimura Sanada weren't added in this ? While Tadakatsu Honda is there. Those 3 lived around Nobunaga Oda's conquest and already be the vassal of Shingen Takeda. What a dull
Magoichi that man Is still my fav
What? No Date Masamune?
Wait, Where is Yukimira Sanada & Masamune Date?
So where's Keiji? Didn't he serve Nobunaga at one point? At least in Samurai Warriors 1 he did and even in 2 for Yukimura's first mission Keiji betray's Nobunaga from the start. In 1 he was the Lu Bu character of the game until Tadakatsu got an actual character model in XL.
where is kotaro fuma and kai and yukimura sanda brother and ina
I hope they add yukimura to a dlc, he is practically the protagonist of this saga and he is a hero in japan
Matsunaga hisahide and Magoichi Saika ma bois!💯👍
Any DLC for this game? Extra characters? Okuni? Goemon? Chacha? Hello?
Well... yes and no. There is DLC for the game, but there won't be any extra characters added.
@@Coadz95 what does it include?
From what I've seen in the JP version so far (from other uploads on UA-cam), there are some additional stages, weapons and horses, as well as a bgm pack with three tracks. Also, the SW1 costumes of Nobunaga and Mitsuhide (that are featured in the video) are DLC costumes. Apart from that, I'm not entirely sure. Except for a season pass, and the confirmation from the games producers (via Siliconera's website) that there won't be any additional characters. Although they did say that if the game does well, then there will be a sequel game (I'm guessing similar to SW4-II).
No kotaro fuma, nene, ina, okuni. Damn..
Masamune ,kotaro fuma,musashi,kanetsugu naoe,sakon shima,tachibana mitsunari isida,nene,shimazu 😭
I miss some character question mark i got few question mark not all 39 characters my character slots 😭😭😭😭
Where is Okuni? is she unlockable?
No this is the entire roster
Where is kotaro fumA😢
Sucks there is no way for me to get the extra custume for Oda and Mitsuhide.
boooring, no Keiji, no Ranmaru, no Aya , this is lame
To be honest, Ranmaru and Aya should be in SW 5 because the content is from the Oda period as well.
Aya is Kenshin's half-sister.
Are the deluxe edition weapon sets just skins?
They're their own weapons
Am i the only one who love the fact that they reduced the number of the characters?
I kind of agree. I like that the cast is smaller cause it's easier to focus on the fewer characters, BUT. The ones they cut ... ALL my favourites. ALL of them. No Mitsunari, Masamune, Yoshitsugu, Aya, Kanetsugu, Kai, and I'm not his big fan but no Yukimura. Yes, they weren't active in this era, but RANMARU?? No excuse
My characters list 37 why? +2 characters hidden characters?
if this pc version, would you share the save data ?
I'm office worker, ain't got much time to play it long hour.
Same here :(
Terima kasih.
Wait, where’s my icon? Did they bumble it up?
