After Three Kingdoms anyone hopes for Sengoku?

[Daryl]

Yes I know Shogun 1 and 2 exist
but who whopes for a Sengoku era
with more fleshed out Sengoku heroes and stories that parrallels to the Three Kingdoms?

[Dragoon]

Huh? Sengoku as in the Chinese Warring States or the Japanese Warring States?

The Japanese Warring States already got 2 games, as you already mentioned. I don't see why they'll make a 3rd one anytime within the next decade.

Chinese Warring States might be a possibility if this game turns out to be good and is successful.

No no.
Total War Stone Age
Total War Jurassic
Total War All-stars i.e all Total War together. Archaon recruit Lu Bu to kill Oda Nobunaga and Augustus

I would love to see another Total War game set in the Sengoku Jidai as Shogun 2 is a bit dated by this point (nor very well depicted or accurate) but it'll be a long time. Behind Rome 2 it is the most recent full historical title (I count Attila as half a game).

Sengoku Jidai with an updated engine and the recent features we've come to enjoy though.. it would be nice.

If you are refering to the Spring and Autum and Warring States periods, I am going to guess they will be in expansion packs just like Rise of Samuria and Fall of Samuria

[Straybow]

Nope many more places around the world before going back to Japan, again. Eventually though sure why not.

I honestly love the idea of approaching China in a Historic Battle-Centric setting like Total War rather than the Toei stuff that's thrown out year by year with the weird Techno-Chinese Pinball Soundtrack.

The Three Kingdoms deserves some love, and there are tons, and tons, and tons of strategy games, covering Medieval Knights. Turn of the Century Europe, and even France, Rome, Japan, The Huns.

I look forward to owning this game. Now, don't get me wrong, if they go from China straight to a Korea expansion and abandon other untouched civilizations, I won't be that happy. But after this first entry to the wars in ancient China... perhaps go crazy. How about America, Pre-Columbus?

I always prefer these games either Pre-Gun Powder or 'just on the cusp' unless they are fantasy. Because the game devolves to pretty much only ranged and siege and mounted ranged units from there.

Is Toei a Chinese rip off company based on Koei Tecmo? Cuz ROTK isn't released every year and it's similarly complex to Crusader King.

Id love to see a Shogun 3 with the ability to change it to a less historical version like three kingdom's romance or historical along with the updated engine

The biggest advantage that 3K can bring to Shogun is not necessarily the romance/historical setting IMO; indeed I personally think a pure historical take fits the Sengoku period better. I believe it's actually the 3K character system (or at least a greater focus on characters like Pharaoh).

The part of the Sengoku Jidai that most people care about were dominated by clans, but most importantly, the clan leaders and daimyos. their relationships, families, and personalities are essential to the story that most of us care about (yes, the Sengoku Jidai is a lot longer than just the ending we all know). Shogun 2 was a fun game but fell flat with how it attempted to capture the essence of history. by starting in 1545, learn before most of the great daimyos, and by not focusing on characters, a lot of potential was unrealized. A Shogun 3 could improve that.

I'd love Shogun 3 to be in TW:TK style. With heroes, overall Dynasty Warriors vibe and all.

This is actually going to be tough to implement. Simply because of few things;

1. Sengoku characters were never portrayed as Godly beings in movies, dramas & literature. Even popular koei games like Nobunaga Ambition is pretty grounded.

2. Bulk of Shogun players are historical players. The problem with giving two modes will likely make the other mode redundant, just like 3K's record and romance mode. Waste of resource. Might as well focus on records for S3 since that is the majority of players.

However, I think some compromise can be made like perhaps giving more feature to groom the faction leader and the heir. If CA wants to go full blown fantasy like some have suggested. Then, I highly recommend CA making a Total War Mythology separate from Shogun 3. Total War Mythology, they could give Nippon characters from the Sengoku era and throw in superpowers and whatnot.
