This is hands down the best DW game I've ever played, and I was a die hard player of DW7 and 8 when they came out. I love the refreshing take on the story and the protagonist rather than the classic formula. It almost reminds me of that mode in Soul Calibur 3 where you got to play a character through numerous battles, anyway that was awesome too! Highly recommend picking this up while it's on sale. The only downside I've found is that sometimes the small skirmishes and not main missions can be a little boring/tedious but they are largely optional which makes it all the better. I've always liked DW games to de-stress and between the battle gameplay (which I must mention is revamped and fantastic) the story and the music is amazing! I'm only just past chapter 1 writing this review, but I can already tell it's going to be a great ride!

Having been a long time fan of the Dynasty Warrior games, I was worried about this game. I still believe that the best overall games in the series is Dynasty Warriors 3, or Dynasty Warriors: Empires. They rank among my top 20 games of all time.
This being said, DW: Origins is a phenomenal continuation of the series, and a breath of fresh air from the previous release of recent games in the series. This game made me feel like I had reverted back to my childhood, playing on the PS2, and absolutely decimating armies of enemies (and Lu Bu) with a smile on my face.
The open world map is large enough, and you are able to easily traverse it once you acquire a horse. (Birch is the best boy). The variety of weapons is fun, with enough difference between each type to let you battle how you wish. The story, though it is the same story that has been repeated over the last 20 years, felt fresh as you played from the eyes of a new character, and not one of the historic heroes of old. The soundtrack was both exhilarating, and calm, when it needed to be. The visuals are gorgeous, and the map variety is pretty decent. The combat was intense at moments, but I still felt like I was in control of the battlefield once I made it to the next engagement. Lastly, the ability to choose a dialogue option was a unique twist, though I wish it had a bit more sway in the outcomes of events.
Overall, I give this game a solid 9/10. My only gripe is that it didn't last long enough. There was a continuation of the story I was hoping for, but it never panned out.

Overall I enjoyed it, like it's nice to just have a nice action beat'em up type game that isn't trying to be Dark Souls.
Been awhile since I played a Dynasty Warrior but felt like combat was a bit tighter and enough challenge to have to pay attention. Like the regular soldiers poke you in the back and in the big army set piece sections can be a real pain tbh. So did enjoy that. Could still use some more map variety in terms of maybe gimmicks since after a bit they feel samey.
They need to just go ahead and embrace personality, they made all the characters rather even and stoic to the point where other than a few none had any personality worth remembering and it doesn't help that the protag is effectively mute and is completely just wall paper, yet everyone loves him. VA's also felt like they were very much reading from the script.
Kind of torn too because this just focuses on the story from the Yellow Turbans to Chibi (Red Cliffs) so there's a lot of characters that you don't see or get much screen time, like Ma Chao, Lu Su makes a token appearance, etc. There was more than enough gameplay though overall even with one route but I kind of wish it did go later in some respects but also it might have been just too much without more variety in gameplay/maps.
TLDR, if you like Musou games then it's worth picking up at some point.

A big upgrade in almost every sense for a dynasty warriors game, combat is much more interactive and can provide a challenge that can be made a bit easier by grinding but still requires accurate game play.
Cannot wait for DLC or a sequel.

9/10 - maybe the best game in the series
The only downside is a lack of content outside the main 1P story mode (no quick battles, no co-op, nothing) but the main game is SO good its hard to be mad.

The only reason this game isn't the best DW game ever is the lack of a playable roster, but I suppose that aspect of the game had to be sacrificed for what might the best story that ever came out of KT and Omega Force. I never thought these guys could make a remotely decent story but they surprisingly pulled it off here, in a DW game out of all things!
Combat was alright. Nothing to write home about, and gets extremely repetitive very quickly. Nevertheless the addition of parries and perfect dodges are a massive improvement for the usual Musou combat. Oh and I gotta say, the cavalry charge mechanic feels so awesome! I loved it every time it happened. Charging into the enemy with your own army is a sight to behold. The soundtrack is a banger as usual, on brand for a DW game.
Overall I had a great time playing this, felt like the good old days.

[h1] Thought I put Dynasty Warrior games behind me. [/h1]
As an adult the Dynasty Warrior series kind of became unplayable due to the lack of depth so when this game came out I was hesitant to buy but boy was I in the wrong. Takes (almost) every mechanic from the old games and improves on them, officer battles are fun and intense a lot of the time and the overall gameplay loop just had me stuck playing often. Never thought Id put in as many hours as I did but I have no regrets solid 8.5/10 for me

[h1]Best. Warriors. Ever.[/h1]
If you've ever played another "Warriors" game, you mostly know what to expect here.
The biggest departure for the series is you play as a single protagonist. From a development and narrative standpoint, this was just smart. It allowed the developers to focus their efforts, trading bloated quantity for much-needed quality.
Thanks to this approach, the story has also never been more engaging-- or comprehensible. Instead of loosely connected, sparsely explained battles, you physically travel the map, meet the characters, and see how the events unfold, making it easier to grasp the stakes.
And, then, of course, there's the moment-to-moment battlefield gameplay. I can't stress enough how much more fleshed-out, fluid and [b]fun[/b] the combat is. And it only gets better as the game goes on and you unlock more abilities and equipment.
There's just too much to say. Bottom line, they nailed this one.
[b]Pros:[/b]
- Beautiful, Detailed and Massive Armies (Quality AND Quantity)
- Actually Interesting Stories
- Lots of Weapons & Abilities
- Squads
- Companions
[b]Cons:[/b]
- Dialogue can be quite painful. (Mostly just grateful it's in English, specifically for the battlefield.)
- Allies are nigh on useless. Mostly makes combat more interesting, even fitting as the "god of the battlefield," but maybe a tad excessive.

This was a fantastic extension of the Dynasty Warriors franchise. I have a small gripe that the campaign ends at The Battle of Chibi, but aside from that its fantastic. Anyone who is a Dynasty Warriors fan, get this game. You won't regret it.
