Amazon: Dynasty Warriors 8
Gamestop: Dynasty Warriors 8

I have a lot of games to log from the past couple of days…!

Shin Megami Tensei IV and Dynasty Warriors 8 came out on the same day, and I got both, with the risk of my wallet bursting into tears. At first I couldn’t decide which game I wanted to play more, but I ended up going with DW8 because I’m very(!) passionate about the series, and I wanted to play as many games that weren’t handheld during the summer and leave handheld games for when I’m at school.

I finished Wei’s historical route yesterday and started to work on all the goals in certain stages to unlock the hypothetical route. One of the stages require you to catch a guy before he escapes, and after multiple attempts, I seem to not be capable of catching him…!

I have some pictures from when I was playing, but most of them are me decorating Guo Jia’s face with the Line camera app and me poking various officers’ cheeks…

I really like Yue Jin so far! Poor guy, he seems like he has low self-esteem… I just want to pet his head (laughs)

My hands were shaking when I took this photo, but… Cao Pi… Did you really say that with a straight face

I’m impatiently waiting for the Japanese voice patch! I don’t mind the English voices so much, but I can’t handle Yuri Lowenthal as Zhang He… And I want to hear Toriumi as Li Dian, too!

In case it wasn’t obvious, Guo Jia is my favorite!

15 hours into the game, and I didn’t realize you could save officers from dying… During my first run, I unintentionally saved Dian Wei, but Guo Jia died, and I was really upset by his death scene… (Though I’m not sure what was up with Guan Yu’s death scene in Wei’s story?) Then I found out about all the goals, and now my prince is safe with me again!

Excuse you Zhou Yu, I just wanted to say hello!

Actually, I’m pretty sad that they got rid of the narrator and all the camp/ambition mode voices… I haven’t really bothered to read the narration because the font is so small, and even with my glasses on, I can barely make out what it says!
