Community Insight:
We see a lot of reviews about how it takes thousands of dollars to get to top rank. But thats the point, you DONT spend money to get to top, you grind and use strategy and skill. And this is coming from a 100% f2p top 50 in case you doubt us.
Great game really fun dont really have to spend any money with how much they give you to summon main issue comes with energy. You can play for about 10 minutes of the story before your character loses all energy then you wait 3 hours. 100 energy is just way too little in our opinion. Or maybe turn the quests down from 5 energy. Or add some stuff to do that doesnt require energy. Honestly confused here do you want us to play the game or just glance at it then leave for 3 hours because we can tell you one thing ima get bored real quick if we only play for 10 minutes at a time.
Although the game seems well put together, the use of GenZ slang coupled with an obvious failure in education in English language makes this entire game unbearable. It was uninstalled faster than it installed.
Im at the main loading screen and it just says "file can not be extracted.
It takes FOREVER TO LOAD it is so stupid we swear.
Ive played this game like a couple of months ago and we enjoyed it but like Im kinda getting tired of the same stuff over and over again with the combos and stuff and it takes so much time just to get new characters, we sort 20 dollars or more in this game just to get no good characters we WANT MY MONEY BACK.
We find this game annoying because of how the dialogue sounds so cringe the voice acting is obnoxious and the dialogue is just written like they just want to be trendy although the character designs are nice but that game was an instant delete after hearing those cringy dialogues and the obnoxious voice actings at the beginning.
We have been playing this game for about a year. Recently we have noticed resources disappearing between logins. Support contacted. Developers are in denial. Screen shots with times sent in. Game has SERIOUS Database issues.
Long story short we like to spend money to support the game we enjoy playing but this game is on whole another level for spending. You wont even make it to top 10 even if you spend 15,000+ DOLLARS. Im not exaggerating at all. Free daily gifts are so low you will get nowhere in this game. That is why this game has such little players that its pretty much dead. If you are balling out of control and can spend 20-30 thousand dollars for a game then this is the one for you. Ive decided to quit after playing for the first month. For once we regret spending on a game.
This is pretty awesome game gameplay and graphics are awesome.
We love it but personally we dont really have the patience for a long time so when we installed it took so long! We were thinking of just canceling the install but Im glad we dident this game is amazing totally recommend if you get bored easily and like rpg and idle games.
If youre a free to play gamer, plz dont consider this game. Resources are extremely low for f2p, the rates are terrible and there is so many events that easily cost you from 100-200$ already. Like bi*ch, that thirty? Our account name is Aphlopus on server 59 riften, ban us.
The writing is so bad and cringey that when we got to the part "Let's try on this new swag" it just conpletely buried our interest in the game. Tons of lines are incorrect and instead display "42" as the entire sentence, even though the an entire sentence was spoken. We saw "42" as a subtitle sentence at least three times before getting to chapter 2. Game is unfinished.
Lots to do and fun to watch the big combo fights.
How come ma chao is a legendary fighter but not zhao yun he is the best fighter of all time we dont understand why u guys made zhao yun to a epic character instead in making him in a mythic or legendary character plz fix that.
It's fun and cool to play its easy to play if u are pay-to-win but if u are a free-to-play it's a bit hard.
The game plays decent enough, the animation is awesome and the sprites look really good. The first little bit of the game seems to just play itself and you just watch, but after that you get to do a little more slowly but surely. Our only real complaint is that there must only be one voice actor for the entire game, Ive never heard one guy act out 20+ characters. We almost wanted to turn the speech off so we wouldnt have to hear him talk.
Hey the app will not fully download we tried over 100 dam times we cant delete it because it keep popping back up ready to download again so delete off our phone now because Im getting so mad literally every time we delete stop downloading it shows back up on our phone again every time it so annoying so you better delete it off our dam phone NOW.
Your loot boxes didnt give us any good characters. Instead we got weak characters that take forever to hurt the enemy. Deleted. We will avoid this developer from now on. Boring game too, BTW.
We have been playing this game for 3 months and stay on top 10 players in the server. One day, it was suddenly log off and we could not login back in our server. We messaged with supporting team to fix it. They said it would take couple days, but it been for the whole month and still could not fix it. We provided any information for what they needed, but what we received was be patient. And the next response used to be the beginning of the week and never there after. We lost our interest about this game and the supporting team. Bye Gtarcade.
Ive played a lot of gacha games and Dynasty Scrolls is good. Not great. Theres nothing new. Its the usual gacha. We do like its character models a lot and the game has a lot of flavor. Theres a good amount of depth and quite a bit to do as well. Our biggest complaint is the server size. We believe once they have 2500 players they open a new server. The problem with this is that those 2500 players arent all active. 2500 is small even if they are all active. In fact our server probably has 200 active players. We have 4 legions alliances total. That is way too low and almost all the top players are in our legion making it uncompetitive. Thats another problem. Competition. There is no sort of legion vs legion war mode like in Magic Rush Heroes. Most the time in arena, city siege, and other pvp modes youre competing against your legion members. We dont like that at all. Ive run top alliances in Magic Rush, Rise of Kingdoms, and Age of Apes and everything we do is about teamwork. We dont like only having our teammates as opponents and we dont like how there are no players on our server. They should double the number to 5000 players. As far as the p2w model its a gacha. Thats always the case but DS does a good job giving f2p players a lot of currency, events, and ways to grind and stay relevant. You will never be able to keep up with a player who spends even a $100 a week but youll still be in the top 50 on your server due to the small amount of players. Paywalls do exist but they are small. Spend $5 here and there and youll get a nice little boost. The difference between an epic hero and a legend is immense. Either you spend to have them or you dont. Overall its a good game with fixable problems. We doubt theyll change them but the game is worth a try. We would still HIGHLY recommend Magic Rush Heroes over any gacha. Especially if you like open map wars that are extremely competitive. Update: So they have a cross server city siege mode where they put 16 servers into one area to fight. If youve ever had to fight players from 15 servers earlier than you know this is a dumb amount. Server 45 shouldnt be fighting server 30. Do you guys play test content before releasing it.
Interesting. Do you think it is fair to have cross server battle for those who have played 3 months with us that only played 2 weeks? Even if you recharge to VIP 13, you will still defeated by those who VIP 0 in the previous servers just because they have a higher level.
We cant even get back to main account because u guys are too lazy to fix it plz do something about it.
We used to play this game but now we cant get back in using our Facebook account..we connect this with Facebook but now we cant get back in. It said error. Please help.
We think it is a game that requires patience. Sure it may be a bit pay to win, but that doesnt mean that you cant get good stuff. You just need to be a bit patient since the game has pretty decent rewards they offer you at times which you can invest in op stuff.
The voice acting and the lines were extremely cringy.
If youre familiar with 3 Kingdoms lore then youre probably expecting to play with the most popular heroes like Lu Bu, Cao Cao, and Guan Yu. Know now that those characters are unavailable for 3-4 months and must be bought. No RNG to get them. Just $$. Every 2-3 days is a new spending event. Even If youre willing to spend $200 for the lowest ranking in an event, most events dont have ranking rewards, and you wont keep up unless you spend that much every event. Pay to play or stay away, your choice.
Keeps us interested! Voices are fun and cinematic.
Adding the faster battle system like the Asian version would be perfect. At least something similar to that.
We love the dialogue! Its so cheesy and funny. The game is really easy and the story is straight to the point. Its a fun game to play whenever.
Ok so we love dynasty warriors so we had to try this game out and Im glad we did! Its colorful and the battle cut scenes are amazing. Like something you will see on anime or console gaming. What we also really enjoy is the dialogue and the characters. They are actually funny and the start of the game we were confused at first but as we progressed through the beginning we found ourselves laughing and smiling at the dialogue. We cant wait to put more hours into this game. Developers you guys did great on this one.
In this game we get a lot of free golds which shows that this game is a full f2p games. Therefore, this game deserves 5 stars.
This is a GOOD game but the only thing is that it takes awhile for the stamina to recharge.but other than that this game is awesome!!! ^^.
We say that it is AMAZING Its original easy to master and the animation keeps ages if all ages hooked and we could not ask for anymore and plus not a single bug in sight we played for 1 hour and we have accomplished a lot so its easy to progress the story is excellent we swear this may be GTacrades just made there best game yet.
This game easy to play and really fun. Love it.
The game is so far pretty good. The anime is really on point and the characters look really cool.
The game so far isnt bad at all, very easy to understand and play. Though there are obvious power gaps between p2w and f2p players, we think the game is playable at best.
So Ive been bouncing around between quite a few games and we gotta say, everything about this game catches our attention. The graphics and characters are super cool, the dialog is great and the anime battle sequences are stunning. You dont have to pay to get good stuff right off the bat you can get them pretty easily. Super addicting and hecka fun especially if youre a fan of the series. All in all awesome game.
Must play if you love Romance of the three kingdoms.
Another spin on the classic Dynasty Warriors. So far, we like the gameplay and the graphics are very well done.
Ample growth without spending money. Fun game and the graphics are stunning.
Just started playing and we cant put our phone down.
Great start so far. Wish the legendary is more obtainable without being p2w. We want our Lu Xun! Auction is a great add to this game though we do not know all of its functions.
Give it a try have fun the game play is great battles skill effects are cool.
Only thing is too much on one screen makes it hard to get around.
We love this game! Its really cool and entertaining. The way they just break the fourth wall sometimes is hilarious also.
We enjoy playing this game. Simple to get started with a lot of things to do. Being in English is nice.
We enjoy the Romance of The Three Kingdoms characters. Having fun building them up. Lots of different things to do in game.
This game is so good. It not like the other game which want to take your money. Good game.
