I Take It Origins Will Not Have An Empires Variant.

[DorkSparce]

Makes me wonder if this is the one DW title that probably won't see an Empires variant let alone an XL. The entire roster of Generals all have shared movesets instead of unique ones and even fewer with a unique looking weapon like Zhou Tai, Yu Jin, Sun Quan or Yue Ying.

Story only going as far as Chi Bi.

Ziluan as the only playable character start to finish. Though frankly it felt like Zhu He could've been a playable character as well given the backstory. Kinda had that Mass Effect: Andromeda vibe with how the Ryder siblings are played out.

Maybe the game has enough to at least have an XL veriant? It'll be weird to more than likely never see Origins with a spinoff title.

Its a spin off game, not the main franchise. If anything, I want them to work on Origin 2 where they continue the story all the way to wu zhang plain. Then make origin 3 and play through the whole Jin Story. This would make the perfect trilogy for DW

[DawnCry]

Well we don't know what they will do, albeit I would say that origins map could perfectly work as an empires version, just expand it a little.

Overall the only main change I would make is that while I find it fine to become better at using a weapon, I dislike that character progression is tied up to weapons, I prefer the title system of previous dynasty warriors to upgrade character stats or perhaps a simple EXP system to level up.

For the rest... we have everything, except the custom MC thought.

I would be sad if they called the sequels Origins 2 and Origins 3. We've gone past the Origins already. I dunno. Next one could be DW Foundations and the 3rd one can be DW Ouroboros.

It's spin off title based on the same name. In fact Sho mentioned he will use the money to continue on sequel if this game success and make the needed profit. Imply the "Empire" Variant or other edition is not in his mind for this title or getting the sequel out is top priority.

No one knows what they've got planned, all we know is they've got this new engine to play with. Could be a DLC expansion, could be Dynasty Warriors 10, could be a Warriors game in the Stardew Valley universe.

dynasty warriors kart racing

but for real, if this was successful then i bet DW10 would be the next big thing.
I mean they could always put out dlc for this game to get some extra cash though.

He stated that he wanted to get away from the numbers. Essentially, it makes the games unapproachable when people see a large number and they haven't played the previous ones in the series. (similar to Final Fantasy)

We know a good amount per an interview with the director. But its all up to sales which don't look particularly promising on steam to be honest. (which sucks because I love the game)

If Origins sells well enough there will be a sequel featuring a new MC.
Also the game will potentially have DLC that may add to what is in the game, but will not continue the story.

The battle mechanics seem well suited for Empires, so there is hope it will be used in some way.

[Ricochet]

I hope they have empires later on and implement mechanics that should've been on the base game like coop or from players feedback after playing the base game. Empires is always an improvement over the base game just like how they did it from dw 9.
