Better than IV!

Good game and holds many aspects that makes it, in my opinion, better than IV. I like the new styled duels much better. I also like the event sequences.
The only draw back is that battles can last only 1 month and attacking cities is kind of a bore due to lack of strategies the gamer can employ.
All in all, a must own, especially if new to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms saga.
A long awaited game letdown

I wonder what koei was thinking, I currently owned all romance games and was very anxious to see thsi one come out. As i was playing it all m y hopes of how good the game should be were flushed down the toilet. The instruction mannual what is what caused a late release sucks, it doesnt help you out or say what to do much. There is no training soilders, nor rewarding officers. I dont like how you cant have extended wars, and you are so limited in the game in what you can do month to month. You cant learn new skills and the game is limited in war tatics such as weather, wind, bolt and alot other things that made the game fun. As for ranking system, sience the instruction mannual suchks still havent figured out how to get rank. And one finail note, If you make a charater you better make him 35 yeras old because the stats you give him we wont obtain tell he gets that old. That is REALLY cheezy and major letdown. When i obtained special weapons it doesnt tell you, you have to figure that out on your own if you got them from beating a general. And i hate the fact you lose men in winter if you are at war. I beat the whole game first night owned not needing anything but regular foot soilders, making all those special types non desirable to get, I never even had a duel. Compared to part four what is the best koei game ever made, i think worste then even part two. And the way the war scene is out, where you give your commands, in three ay intervals can become very confusing and is dumb because you may want a unit to do something different on day two and three. For only having thirty day wars if you win the battlefeild war on day 25 you only have 5 days to conquer castle what wont happen. Then you have to retreat and the enemy gets a whole month to send reinforements. Again this game is a big let down. I will never buy a koei game again. What funis a game where you just sit on your turn and do nothing, just waiting for gold. You cant build weapons, and the stupidest thing of all is if you want to get a vacent city, you need to attack the city and you will lose soilders in attacking a emepty city. Later you dont even need to keep a officer on your state to claim it as yours. As for stupid you can attack a land city with a navel unit, where thers no water andyou will win after losing a few soilders.
the new ideas are good but they dropped some good features

It seems that in this one Koei was more interested in trying new feaures for there games then making sure staples of the formers games made there way to this game. Some parts of the game I found to be fun. The fact the fact that you have to give your troops commands for 3 days at a time makes you actually need to anticpate you enemies moves, its too bad that the AI is very easy to predict. The only real problem I have with the 3 day commands is that the computer is doesn't seem to follow this, seemingly changing its mind on the second day into the commands and taking a more advantagous route. I enjoy the fact that you character age, get better as they approach their prime, and grow weaker as the have passed it, the inablity to train troops, which was the reason you or your enemies couldn't just "raise an army" on a whim, atleast not a very good one, in the older games. All in all it's a good game, but in my opinion Koei has already made a better version
Unbelievable gameplay

Being a huge fan of the real time strategy games, I found this game to be especially unique. If you want a good grasp of Chinese history without taking the time to read the long novel, this is the game for you. Not only can you impress your peers with knowledge, but also have hours upon hours of stimulating gameplay. With the capacity to create characters from scratch, this game has endless bounds. Having all games associated with the Three Kingdoms, even the PS2 version, I found this one to be the most enjoyable. It's so packed with information it will keep you awake at nights thinking if one of your providences is governed by the right man. I love this game, but if you do not have patience-forget it.

I used to be an avid gamer but responsibilities of life have prevented me from those hours with the controller. However, whenever a new R3K comes out, I am back in front of the TV until I am done. I love the improvements, they are fabulous. I wish that the duel was much more a part of the game. It was great in the last one but now nobody ever wants to duel, which is a shame. I also miss the rewarding of generals. The catapults were fun, now gone. It is also much harder to recruit generals from other areas and from captured generals. They never want to join you. It used to be fun to win a big war to get your hands on Lu Bu. Now these guys are all imprisoned and executed, no chance to add to your stable of talent. I like the storyline interludes and the emperor allowing the rankings, this is great stuff. Would be nice of you could appoint civil officers to some sort of ranking, perhaps a council of somekind where "plot" stuff could be suggested and executed. You would be able to call the council every so often for this sort of diplomatic advice. And perhaps then that interesting subversion that is in the plot area would actually work once and a while. I would like to be able to buy the horses and all that stuff as well. Still these are the best games ever created! Can't wait for the next one.
