Sun Jian and Ce weren't really leaders. The former was a general of the Han and then Yuan Shu. The latter was also a warlord under Yuan Shu, and even though he became independent later on he didn't live long enough to actually found the kingdom of Wu.

Sun Quan isn't that bad but apparently he was a mean drunk or something. Towards the end of his long life he kind of lost it, though and became senile. Everything went to shit after his death.

Liu Bei was literally the Trump of ancient china
>>
The Shu-Han were the legal successors of the dynasty but their dynasty had also been crumbling and corrupt for a log ass time. Liu Bei was related to them but he certainly wasn't the next guy in line or anything.

After all the insurrection started Liu Bei and his band were basically viewed as outlaws but later generations decided they were actually the good guys, including the guy who wrote Romance of the Three Kingdoms upon which the Koei games are based.

So now when they show Liu Bei marching into the western mountains and subjugating his own clansmen, he's shown as doing it regretfully instead of being arguably just as ruthless and ambitious as Cao Cao.

The novel states that what finally pissed Wu off was Guan Yu refusing to marry his daughter to Sun Quan's son, in an attempt to strenghten the Shu-Wu alliance and Guan Yu leave the province; the game just holds itself with Guan Yu's stuborness to not give the province to Wu which shattered the alliance.

Although the botched marriage might surface in the games since they've just introduced Yinping.

Manga started out pretty good but then the author realized he'd rather add 10x more betrayal and shifting alliances than what the novel had, stretching the plot to maybe last hundreads of manga volumes if the publisher allows it.

Also the immense Lu Bu cocksucking, holy shit, if one thinks KT is on Lu Bu's dick with how he is portrayed in DW, then they couldn't live with how Lu Bu is portrayed in Ravages of Time.

>>
>>339540353
One of the main themes of TROT is that nothing is actually as it seems, and recorded history shouldn't be trusted as it is written by winners, so the different portrayals of characters like Lu Bu is really refreshing. The "I know you know I know" can get a bit ridiculous at times, but I guess that's part of the charm of the manhua.

There isn't a single a girl that looked better before Tecmo came.

Arguably the guys as the well, people felt that shaving the walords was a heresy, now everyone is fapping to clean shaven Liu Bei and Sun Quan.

Wouldn't surprise me if Cao Cao got a gillete in DW9, at least a younger version of his since Cao Cao definitely has his facial hair as an iconic pice of his portrayal in pretty much anywhere.

As in Cao Cao outlived his rivals and pretty much saw his dream to near completion.
The Sima clan took the reins and unified it forward, but its not like that wasnt entirely due to his and his families efforts.

Think of it like Cao Caos team winning the game. He was scoring all the points but was sidelined. Sima stepped up and they drove it down the final stretch to put em away for good.

You should've pointed out the Sima Clan instead.

The family that unifined china is portrayed as the most western looking characters in DW.

Hell, the parents of the guy that finally unifined china in that period might as well be American top models, Wang Yuanji is some blond goddess.

Not that I'm complaining, the Sima Famly was the best additon in the series in years, fuck yeah meat buns.

To be fair, I got the impression from the novel that he's a lot more tragic then the games and pop culture make him out to be. I thought he was more unlucky and/or stupid than outright evil. Sure, he did a lot of betraying, but that was more par for the course back then.

Naw, looks like a Mongolian with eye-shadow.

Yeah, reading the novel made me thinks that he was more naive and easy to be swayed than outright treacherous or evil. Probably because of the different value of moral back in the day that made him into villain we know today.

Yeah, Sun Quan could get shitty when drunk and as he got old he became senile and allowed himself to get dragged into his cunt daughter's schemes but for the most part he was a great leader/ruler who had a real eye for talent and listening to advice.

I don't particularly hate the current art direction of the games, although I miss the more grounded style of DW3, but man oh man what I wouldn't give for the DW games to adopt a more romantic style like that pic. Just something more akin to both the RotK series itself, or the TV series.
