Like almost every Dynasty Warriors title will also get a song number 8 Xtreme Legends expansion

Like almost every Dynasty Warriors title will also get a song number 8 Xtreme Legends expansion. Besides gameplay tweaks and a handful of additional characters this type extension usually adds new what-if scenarios to - so in this case. In addition, Lu Bu gets his own story mode and provides additional expansion challenge and replay value through an 'Ultimate' difficulty special challenge levels, a renewed Ambition mode and a higher level cap. Xtreme Legends is mostly more of the same, but considering section 8 is one of the better games in the series, which does not have to be bad.

As mentioned, Xtreme Legends is a wonderfully old-fashioned expansion: no update or DLC pack so, but a substantial addition to a previously released game. The expansion is stand alone, which means that you can also play without the original game, whether you walk than any previous story content wrong - unless you're the Complete Edition for PS4 and Vita buy. If you have the original game have in your possession, you can authenticate it online for its content also involved Xtreme Legends. Have you not the first game, then you should do it with the new levels, challenges and Ambition mode of expansion.
However, all playable officers from the original game place and unlocked from the first minute. With the five new characters counted there, this means that you can immediately with as many as 82 officers to work. Unfortunately, three of those new characters so generic that you can barely distinguishable from ordinary enemies, but new styles of play are always welcome. In addition, all existing characters already updated with a second EX-attack and has to unlock a new ultimate weapon for each weapon type.
The direct gameplay is also little changed. Of course you will still hordes of enemies heels with easy to perform combos and three different 'musou' attacks. You will also still be careful to be in the right place on the battlefield at the right time and it is crucial to regularly exchange of weapons in order to exploit the weaknesses of the opponent. This is a good thing, because thanks to these features Dynasty Warriors 8 was a little less brainless hakfestijn than its predecessors, without moving away from the ridiculously high KO counters.

Xtreme Legends doing here by giving you charge a little extra over three bodyguards - in the renewed Ambition mode, at least. These bodyguards can build by letting other accomplices go unpunished (to recruit later). You can also build a bond with your bodyguards by taking them along on missions, and they can learn a new skill. During such a mission, you can pause the game at any time to use these skills, or they simply send it to a specific point on the map, to conquer a base or defend here.
Despite this addition Ambition mode remains a 'grind'. For those who were not familiar with the mode you hereby start with an empty piece of land that will serve as your home base. These can then extend through a series of increasingly more difficult to engage in missions. Only when your time is up or you go down, the influx of new levels stops.
During the missions you gather fame, henchmen and materials for your empty land gradually be transformed into a small village with eventually a monumental tower. The race against the clock expired missions nice and smooth, but when you have a hundred missions of about 4 minutes to play through, get bored so. This is all the worse by the fact that passes many times the same dialogue during each mission.
If you still manage to complete the tower, then you had played the mode in the original game. In Xtreme Legends go though your ambitions that little bit further. This time, you can directly play to unite all of China by one by one to conquer every province. This sounds nice and will make fans of the series may remember the Warriors extensions: Empires. Do not expect the same level of depth or even the illusion of strategy. In the Advanced mode you Ambition' namely doing pretty much the same as before, only with a different purpose. Here Tecmo Koei could do more with it.

The same applies to the new placements of the existing story lines. It is of course nice to see how the Three Kingdoms Roman could have been different, but rather that they tell a real story, they often feel as separate courses. They thus provide a particularly fresh look at the battlefields, but not the consequences.
Lu Bu in the storyline, however, is clearly stopped more time. Here are introduced to new characters through cut scenes and you finally get to see how it is that Lu Bu was present at almost every legendary battle. I never knew that I wanted a Lu Bu-story, but now I've played this Dynasty Warriors 9 can not do without.
Outside these additions to Xtreme Legends focuses mainly on hardcore Warriors fans who are not afraid of a solid gravel. The new challenges, particularly the new complexity require a more comprehensive understanding of the game systems. It also helps to have one or more officers to the maximum level - which has now been increased from 99 to 150. The average player will probably not even near it.
THE JUDGEMENT

The story of Lu Bu is the only grand addition of Xtreme Legends. Fans of the Warriors series will most likely Hours are sweet with the extra difficulty, higher level cap and extensive Ambition mode, but eventually all this content aimed at re-playing the same levels. For newcomers, the price of the individual expansion thus difficult to justify. If you have a PS4, the Complete Edition is by far the better choice. In addition to the lighting effects, sharper textures and higher number of enemies on the screen, it also includes all the content from the original game. Eventually Xtreme Legends is a standalone expansion simply too little to offer.
