looking back it feels absurd to think of a time when a big new game release would cost as much or less (!) than a new film release, though at the time i'm sure the costs involved in production were different too

i see

funnily masamune's passive skill is another one of the relatively rare ones that can charge musou, unfortunately it only does so when he blocks a hit, so just pray an enemy never gets behind him i guess

you're basically forced to work around these moves while fighting large groups of enemies

musashi never needs to fight large groups of enemies because he just charges up his musou meter and kills them all in one go

by comparison masamune wields a sword and a gun, which is admittedly cool as shit, but his two skills are "shoot airsoft bullets" and "raise your offense while lowering your defense", even better every move in his combos where he uses his gun opens him up to free hits

the only real downsides is that tadakatsu is slow and musashi has poor availability (starts as a rounin in one scenario, interestingly seeming to sidestep ambiguity about which side he was on during sekigahara)
November 29, 2025 at 10:35 PM
musashi and tadakatsu are both kinda broken in a way that almost ruins playing the game as anyone else

other characters have to work to build their musou meter, clear crowds, and find openings to attack enemies, but those two characters literally just have skills that do it for them

just realized that i triggered the event that plays when you send musashi to battle against sasaki kojirou and i totally blanked on who the latter was because he looks absolutely nothing like he did in fate/stay night
November 29, 2025 at 1:21 PM
though i actually ran into him during the honnouji scenario

think he would've been like 10 years old at that point but idk what the views on child soldiers were like at the time

i started playing the battle of sekigahara scenario intending to focus on masamune, but then i realized that he takes effort to play and musashi doesn't

absurd fucking character lmao, probably good he was born after the other scenarios

apparently old guns had the problem of not hurting famous people, which is why akechi mitsuhide had to use a sword 😔

tried nobunaga's ambition for the ps1 for 20 minutes until i couldn't figure out how to send katsuie into battle and gave up

it's worse than it was in sw2e even, allegedly (?) you can't carry across unit levels between playthroughs and there aren't many opportunities to get experience now that allies don't ask you for help and enemies are shy about attacking you

it's funny that troop sizes are still an issue, recruited ieyasu and shingen near the end of a playthrough and they're at roughly the same level as an early game generic after two level ups, at least their non-combat stats are still good
November 21, 2025 at 9:33 AM
honestly the character swapping missions are kind of annoying (especially when they're random oda retainers that i don't know how to play) but the mechanic is worth it for giving me an excuse to send oichi into every battle
