PROS

Good character creator

Multiple weapons to be used

Runs smoothly

Decent campaign length

Multiple endings

Multiple skill trees to unlock

CONS

Can get repetitive

Messages can slow up battles

Minor technical issues

Map can be tricky to read

In all, Dynasty Warriors: Origins is a solid hack and slash title, allowing you to mold your character in various ways. Voice acting is decent, and for the most part the game controls very smoothly. It can get a bit repetitive, and the horse controls can be a little twitchy. Well worth the time for both old time fans of the series and newcomers.

8/10 stars
