It looks and sounds a bit funny because it is. These battles play out in a rock, paper, scissors format where players must choose an action using gained points through a five round debate. For one, the game has debate battles where an officer may be trying to gain influence or recruit an ally and must debate them in order to win their favor. The presentation is well done albeit a bit goofy at times. Getting there takes a lot of planning, strategy, and (most importantly) patience. While there is a lot going on, for the most part, the beginning parts of a game are relatively simple – gain influence to get followers, build up a starting city, and begin taking over China through either force, or by allying with other factions.
It’s a nice touch which allows players to start at the bottom of the totem pole and work their way up through combat glory while gaining influence by charming rulers and officers. Here, they can choose to play as some of the famous commanders and generals from the series, or create their own hero to add to the game.
There are so many mechanics revolving around politics, raising up commerce and influence in cities, and of course, the large scale battles.Īfter taking on the lengthy tutorial, players can begin their main game. Even after doing a scenario I still had to constantly remind myself of what I had just learned when playing the game. While it serves as a decent tutorial, I must iterate – there is a lot here. There are multiple scenarios featuring numerous different commanders that give the player both information needed to play the game as well as a goal to go for during the scenario. Hero Mode is a type of story mode that serves as a tutorial. To begin with, the game started off by telling me that I should really play Hero Mode first if I have never played one of these games before, so I started there. Granted, there are most certainly some issues with the game in both controls and performance, but after sitting down and actually trying to learn the mechanics, I can see how this can be a very enjoyable game set in the Han dynasty.
#Romance three kingdoms 13 series
Playing one on a console using a controller sounds like a mess and a half, but after checking out the newest in the series on PS4, I can say it’s not all that bad. Strategy games are hit and miss with me and those have always been on PC. In all honesty, I was kind of afraid of them. I had always heard of Romance of the Three Kingdoms but have never played them.
