Pros
- I'm like 8 hours in now and it's amazing, but it's maybe my 10th Musou.
- Played the Demo for Origins, and it felt darn near perfect. Crazy music, crazy number of enemies on stage, generals constantly dying, frantic pushing to save a npc, being confused, getting bodied by Lubu - it was like 3 all over again.
- Dynasty Warriors Origins was a big positive surprise, and I recommend it.
- Personally I wasn't going to get it, but I went to play the demo one last time and just did a complete 180 "I need it" and preordered it. I've put 40 hours into it since the early access and it's glorious in every way.
- The demo was a blast, but still a little hesitant to buy.
Cons
- Gameplay wise it's the best dynasty warrior in a long while. But you use a mute anemesia pretty boy instead of heroes. graphically and technically it's like a ps3 game upscale. -Text/UI is low resolution and blurry no matter what you...
- It’s a great game from the demo but holding off because no coop
- It just feels very sterile and almost weird. Its background is set in an epic war time but the story doesn't make sense to me.
- No character customization. You are forced to play one character through a story mode. Story and writing are very weak. Voice acting is weak. There is no cast of characters you can choose from like in previous DW games. Funnily enough th...
- No split screen :-(

Gameplay wise it's the best dynasty warrior in a long while. But you use a mute anemesia pretty boy instead of heroes. graphically and technically it's like a ps3 game upscale. -Text/UI is low resolution and blurry no matter what you do. -every thing you do, like talking to someone, change equipment, browsing shop etc is followed by 10 second of auto saving where you can't do anything but wait. -musou attack is boring, it just one big slash instead of flashy sustained moves like traditionally

It has - and this restart of the series changes it up quite a lot

No character customization. You are forced to play one character through a story mode. Story and writing are very weak. Voice acting is weak. There is no cast of characters you can choose from like in previous DW games. Funnily enough the trailers never mention this. Made the mistake of assuming this and realized this after about 1 hour of play. Refunded instantly.
