felipepepe is saying here that he is petite yet delicious
I typed Xiaolongbao wrong.
^ fucking delicious, definetly the best thing I did in China was eat tons of those.
wait why is liu bei personally mentoring what looks like an dignified old chinese hobo
Is actually funny, he starts doing that but then some guys appear saying he's too important to do that, so a generic instructor replaces him. The Dynasty series likes to make him so "people guy" that is ridiculous...
Anyway, I kind of finished the tutorial, and now I can start taking quests and getting new weapons & armors. Is quite well done the online stuff: get a quest, hop into map alone or with some bros, kill tons of chineses and take some bases. Quests go from "kill 200" to cooler stuff, like finding a roaming general and defeatng him, taking as many bases as possible with a short time limit, etc...
The weapon system is also cool, you got most weapons from Dynasty 5 + XL (incluiding Zuo Ci's OP cards). You start all the battles at "lv 1", and must kill dudes and collect points to improve attack power, musou, defense and combo lenght, or trade them for a quick 2x attack, defense or speed. Your weapon's upgrades and gems allows you to customize wich upgrades are available in battle. Sima Yi's fan at the begginign can only improve musou and give you 2x attack & defense, but I socketed a gem into it that allows me to boost the attack power for the whole battle. Very interesting system, but hard to properly explain.
The leveling system is a rank system, where you start as a recruit and must gain honor & do quests to go up in rank and be able to wield better weapons, get tougher quests and go to faction PvP battles. There's gear too, that you find & craft and gives you passive bonus and look nice. My main complain ATM is how easy everything is...I'm still only facing weak soldiers and no-name generals, most die in a quick combo... wanna get powned by Lu Bu soon! :D
All and all, very good game, especially for free. I'm having more fun with it than I had with that HORRIBLE "conquer china" mode in DW7...
EDIT: Man, this game is GREAT! I'll start a new character with my brother, play some more and post a thread about it on the MMO forum.
