Videogame special

It's roughly the year 180 AD, there's 10000 dudes on screen at
once and the best way to deal with them is Square, Square,
Square, Triangle? Sounds like a lot of other Warriors/Musou
(depending on what part of the country you're from) games,
doesn't it? And yeah, the essence of what's made the Dynasty
Warriors series is present in Dynasty Warriors Origins, today's
topic of discussion, though developer Omega Force went back to
the drawing board after DW9 and a cancelled sequel to regain some
focus, making a sort of soft reboot of the over two decades old
series to genuinely great success. Together with speedrunner and
PS2 action gaming connoisseur extraordinaire DECosmic, Michael
(young) discusses the newest mainline game in the long running
series about whacking the arguably biggest amount of dudes
possible to great lengths and how there's a surprisingly well
thought out action game underneath its coat of spectacle where
Koei Tecmo ask the perpetually looming question: what if instead
you pressed Triangle, Triangle, Triangle, Square?
