@@jinsakai409 You must be blind then. I'm not talking about what's clearly new in this NEW game or different, I'm talking about how you can look at the game and see its roots. The second I locked on a enemy I recognized the same lock-on symbol..shit, even Nioh 1s protagonist is a preset face 😂. This game probably wouldn't exist if it wasn't for nioh. I do have a question though, have you played through nioh 1? Because if you have than you'd see it in this game
@@TommasoFirmini Exactly. They were able to just quickly make it from Nioh a game that was in development for over a decade. Nioh 2 added the character creator and both Dynasty Warriors and now Wo Long have used the same character creator and they put all the hairstyles in Wildhearts as well. Its a great character creator but they dumbed down everything else and censored the gore for china. Stop acting like its so damn new like its this ground breaking new Ip just because the Bloodborne guy helped. It isn't that good and is mostly negative on steam. I played for 16 hrs already. You can't even push people off a ledge like in Nioh 1 and 2. And don't get me started on the awful hud
I agree! I definitely feel the Nioh in this game! I loved Nioh and so far I love this game! Its awesome. But its a bit confusing without the weapon skill trees. Seems like all weapon arts are rng.. but im sure that changes in the later stages of the game.
Being a huge Dynasty warrior fan, the one thing I'm already glad this game has done is make Zhang Bao And Liang Meaningful. By what I mean in all the DW games there normally generic shaman/Priest generals. Just yellow robes. Here at least they are unique. Feel like they've been over looked for too long on the list of character who shoulld have unique models
Not only is this game based off of history, the stuff about alchemy and the five phases is from the Daoist traditions of spiritual development, of course they put a fantasy spin on all of it but team ninja always does a pretty good job making a solid game and they try to stay true to things. Ninja gaiden has some accurate buddhist iconography also.
My biggest issue with the game and demo was the lacking graphics compared to the Nioh 2 remaster. But i found that by jacking up the HDR contrast and playing with the brightness you can get it much closer. Also play it on the increased resolution if you have a PS5 or Xbox Series, as it doesnt affect the framerate really at all, as far as I noticed.
So hyped that Cowboy is as big a dynasty warrior fan as me! Grew up watching my older brother play these games and them myself! So hyped to see you play this!
Fun fact! That one armour named "Baihu" means "white tiger". I doubt there is any relation, but there was actually a bandit in the southlands named Yan Baihu "White-Tiger Yan". He lead a confederation of bandits, refugees from the war-torn and famine-stricken north and remnants of the Shan Yue peoples. He would come into conflict with Sun Ce, Sun Jian's eldest son. The zh in Zhuque should be somewhere between a ch and a j, and the q should be closer to a ch.
Im the same. Get the first phase done quickly. Second phase I mess up. Been trying for 4 days. I watched cowboys tips video. Hopefully it clicks if not its going to be short game for me. Stuck on opening boss. Good luck hope manage to beat him 🤞
@@TheMrbc74 Hi im really struggling. I can't judge his movement. Ive been watching videos. People make it look so easy. I get him down a little. Then go to bits. Trying different builds in demo. When game comes I'll hope for the best. As say might be short game if I can't beat him 🙈
@@davenunn3333 if your struggling on parry timing cowboy recommends holding block and tapping parry from your block, then if you miss the parry you still get the block. basically this tutorial boss wants you to learn to parry
the final demo was amazing but, i will ask as of March 2nd we are already getting negative reviews and the game isn't even out yet. Are those just complainers that hate the mouse and keyboard controls? If so then they need to suck it up and get a control because not all games are meant to be played with mouse and keyboard especially games like Nioh and now Wo Long
So glad I'm off these next 2 days from work, just got off from night shift so when I get home ima get some good sleep, wake back up in the evening grab some food, and prepare for midnight. I'm hype! 😎 🔥💯 🎮
Hi Cowboy, thanks for this Let's Play series. I've arrived after having just finished watching your Lords of the Fallen 2014 Let's Play, which helped me beat the game. Thought I'd pick this up while I wait for the new LotF to come on sale. It's fantastic. Very fast, but doable once you work out the timing of manouvers. Thanks for sharing.
Your moral number affects your ability to cast magic. If the number is lower than the required number to cast the spell, it will not allow you to cast it until that number is above the required number again. Edit: You figured it out. Nevermind. Lol
Haven't been this excited for a game since Elden Ring. I love Nioh and Sekiro, so this is going to kick ass. I'll have to put Wild Hearts down for a second to play this like crazy.
This game is like Nioh 2 which I couldn't get pass the mid boss. ( I beat all 3 dark souls, Demon souls and Blood borne . ) So it's not like I'm a suck ass player I just can't handle the stress and rage it brings. So I'm just going to watch cowboy play it.
10:00 You were doing “pre-pro”. (Pre-production) usually what it’s called in the entertainment/music industry when preparing or testing sound, mic levels, and writing before heading in to the studio to record the final product. 😎 Digging the vids btw. Didn’t realize this game was souls-like until watching the stream for wild hearts.
@@jurassicgaming7855 Zhang liang carried a fan on older dynasty warriors game, ones i recall were dynasty warriors 4-5 and all of warriors orochi games
Bro I am loving this game. It’s been so addicting lmao. Just ordered a 4080 yesterday (hyype as fuck). truly havent had much performance issues either with my current card. Overall great game imo. So fun. Thanks for the content Cowboy!
I wanted to start the game after seeing the battle system but dude I quit after that first boss he is impossible. I don't play games for stress I play to chill
It still looks decent but some skyboxes aren't the best and you can see the polygon fidelity is alright but gameplay is tight And smooth with no frame drops at all 🤘🏽 7/10 for visually but 10/10 for everything else for the Xbox one version
since this game doesn't have a stamina bar, you can smash 5 light attack and then 1 heavy attack combo to chain-lock him at phase one. Just put your guard up and counter at phase two.
I wonder how many times he's gonna call the battle flag a bonfire. Also that part where he's customizing his flag made me think of that joke where the guy gets a tattoo and says "It says warrior in Chinese." and one of his friends that can read it says "No, it actually says deliveries on Tuesday."
Good choice on Japanese voice. I think out of the 3 choices Japanese is the most mature and grounded. No disrespect to the Chinese dub team but it sounds slightly goofy to my native ears. Probably sounds fine to people who doesn't speak it thought. The English dub is just not that good, sadly.
Hi Cowboy, your playthroughs and let’s plays are great! I was just curious why do you prefer to use gamepad and play with it on pc rather than just using your console instead. I noticed both a cursor in the main menu of the game and a controller buttons showing up in action. Tell me if im wrong. Thanks 😅
I only got half way through Nioh and didn't get past the first area of Nioh 2 so there was no way I was buying this, but that's why there's a Cowboy - Playing games so I don't have to! 😁
@@SavageGameHawk the first nioh was pretty easy until the 3rd or 4th main mission. Nioh 2 on the other hand was much more difficult from the beginning. Wo long is about on par with nioh one. It's just more fast paced
Do these games come out with walkthrough books anymore? I remember using them all the time as I played Ninja gaiden don’t remember how I got the book but I think it came with it when I bought it.
There's an item on a roof on the left just before the dude that teaches you how to deflect. Anyone been able to get it or is this a backtrack later to pick it up sort of thing? Edit: Nvm, got it!
Xing Cai is a fictional combination of Zhang Fei’s two daughters. She is Dynasty Warriors exclusive. And anyway she shows up a lot later in the timeline so I don’t think she would be in the base game. Maybe dlc
This game is getting review bombed on Steam rn. Sitting at 'mostly negative" at the time of this comment due to mad complaints about the bad mouse and keyboard controls. Personally I couldn't IMAGINE trying to play this game on a keyboard, but people do what they do.
Wish you played in chinese, but thats just because i like playing games in languages of their setting, regardless of what it is. Maybe during walktrough prep?
Gotta say after getting a chunk into the game I'm really enjoying myself. Looking forward to seeing how your own playthrough goes. Also. F that tiger. It killed me more times than anything else so far. 😂

As a huge souls fan and a big Nioh fan, I’m so STOKED about this game🎉❤😊
Me shouting “Use your divine beast!” during the first boss battle 😂
Me to lol
it was his lets play blind video of course he’s not going to know the things you know
feels so good seeing characters i grew up seeing in Dynasty Warriors. super hyped to watch your let’s play as i make my own way through the game.
Oh man I am SOO excited for this game
You can really see Nioh in this game
Sucks in comparison to nioh. Can’t dismember or knock enemies off of ledges. No stances or skill trees

I honestly got chills from how absolutely badass the red elixir stuff looked on the first boss.
Finished Nioh 2 for the first time yesterday. Going to go straight into Wo long tomorrow.
U finished the underworld and depths

Thank you for the info!
yeah it has to do with the constellations. Baihu - White Tiger, Zhuque - Vermillion Bird, Qinglong - Azure Dragon, Xuanwu - Black Tortoise
We do see Sun Ce in this so maybe we help him conquer the Southlands and we slap Yan Baihu around
Now, use the power of the jade!

The journey begins. Let's go cowboy!
Can’t wait to see your build vids Cowboy. Keep up the great work. 🤘🏼
This one is gonna be a hell of a ride..😊
If you summon the divine beast when the blind guy tells you to, you can just finish the combat then, while the second phase boss is like half health.
How ?
@Tanner Tiano Triangle and circle when the symbol next to your special moves fills up. Not sure what buttons for PC.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong but I can't make it past the mini boss and I've lvled myself substantially.
I keep getting the text showing me "number of dragon pot uses +1" or something. What is that suppose to mean/do?
It means you're picking up something that would replenish a dragon pot but you're still at full. If you were at 4 out of five heals it would put you back to 5 out of five
It sucks that it doesn’t have any dismemberment.
Is he cheating how has he got that armour and weapons already as I have started and have nothing just rag clothes.
can you explain how you deflect. when you delfect which way do you go, left or right? foward or back? you make it loose easy but dont explain the technique. doing a good job though, love all your videos.

Poison seems handy especially if it sticks and does residual damage. Cowboys armor looks so dope!!! This game is so badass!! 🙌
