thanks for the screens. looks like they are using art from some of the older series. still i like it, the terrain is MUCH better and rotk is all about gameplay anyways.

Since this is rumoured to be the last in the series and all, I really wish they would've added the RPG-esque functionality of 7/8/10. Being a ruler is too much work for me half the time.

It looks very underwhelming but I love these games enough not to be daunted by .. what I'm praying are alpha screenshots.. praying...

Oh who am I even kidding I'm going to buy it no matter how it looks or if it gives the impression that you're fighting with 12 guys and a 12000 number above their head!

For me the best game of the series was Dynasty Tactics. I never dig the format of the RoTK, and though Dynasty Warrior is fun, it's clearly limited.

What type of game is Romance of the Three Kingdoms? especially XI(so I can maybe try it if you can convince me). Is it like Heroes of Might and magic? Civilization? Tell me I want to get nerdchills as well! What so good with this game?

Edit:

Is it like Warlords?! Cause I love Warlords!!! Where are you Warlords V!!!?

It's like....HoMM3 combined with Lords of the Realm with a lot more complexity, a lot of micromanaging and non-battlefield-level strategy. A pretty in-depth ruler simulator if you will.

So it appears the release date is March 3rd, 2012 (Pretty Soon!) and that battles in game will play out in an RTS style (nobody here likes RTS's though right?) I'm pretty excited...

great scott these games still exist?
I remember playing the Korean versions of ROTK VII and VIII? Something like that? Oh man these games were soooo fun to play, even if I didn't know what the hell was going on.

When it does get released, will there be the possibility of an English hack translation or will I have to learn how to sift through all the japanese?

I love the hell out of Romance of the Three Kingdoms games. So excited for it, hoping for an English patch or "hopefully" an English release!

Sweet, a new ROTK for PC. Good thing I know Japanese so I don't have to wait for a patch *brag*.

I think the Nobunaga's Ambition series are superior in terms of general gameplay, but I always have a soft spot for the Three Kingdoms era of history.

Can't wait for this, as it's been 6 long years since XI.
