So, what's the actual difference between Samurai Warriors 4 and 4ii?

[@PKDeviluke25]

To keep it short. 4-II is an expansion pack sold as a full game.

[@eminiclam]

a common practice among musou games sadly. Even capcom did it with all 4 main sengoku basaras on top of all the remasters for different consoles.

[@orochi_warrior]

Awesome video! I've played both and I prefer Samurai Warriors 4 as I really enjoy Chronicle Mode more then Survival Mode.

[@wolfofpersia2275]

new video format and voice wasn't on my bingo card keep it up

[@infinitememegod]

I think the name Samurai Warriors 4-II is a double entendre on the new character “ii” naomasa and the fact that its a second samurai warriors 4

[@Za_Lup]

Very good and thorough video! I enjoyed 4 quite a bit more, but 4-II was definitely fun. I think it's basically a more robust Xtreme Legends. I miss Xtreme Legends tbh. One thing I do remember (sorry if you did mention it, it was a long video, so maybe I already forgot) is that in 4-II were a lot more enemies that blocked/reflected your Hyper Attacks. I remember because the first time I played it it surprised me. It made those Hyper Attacks less useful (were too OP in 4). I would say, amazing first video, my man!

[@KoeiKollection]

Interesting that you mention that about the enemies blocking your hyper attacks, I feel like I only just noticed this after we made the vid haha Thanks for the kind words Lup!

The issue with the Xtreme Legends comparison is that all the Xtreme Legends versions of their respective games are just objectively better than their counterparts, with their base game + new content. This is a remix of their base game with alternate content. In that way Samurai Warriors 4-2 is a lot more experimental. Whether that was the intention from the start, or something they decided on after the lawsuit, is the question.

[@AzaiKang]

In short 1. 4-II acts like Xtreme Legends 2. 4-II adds new story mode, keep in mind that 4's story mode is not included in 4-II 3. New character added in 4-II, Naomasa li 4. 4-II Have a lot of missing maps (example: Anegawa)

[@eminiclam]

sengoku basara 2 heroes, 3 utage and 4 sumeragi all over again. New story and characters with no traces from the main game story, even tho you can totally tell it fits on the disc so they do it on purpose to force you to buy both the main game and the expansion.

[@Mickey-v7p]

Samurai Warriors 4-II’s story mode focuses on one character’s story i.e. Matsunaga Hisahide, Ii Naomasa, Lady Hayakawa, Katakura Kojuro, et al.

[@Desmond_time_Breaker]

Amazing Video perfectly explains the differences between 4 and 4ii

[@KazShiro]

It wouldve been an expansion but had to be its own game. Way i see it, its SW 4: hypothecal edition

[@fikzgaming279]

It's kinda sad that SW4 doesn't have the "definitive" version in terms of Gameplay. DW6 and DW7 has their Empires games which improve the combat,adding some skills,etc but SW4 Empires puts too many focus on the relationship aspect that they changed some aspect that made gameplay isn't as fun as SW4.

[@SirIsaacFortesque]

As someone who still hasn't played much Samurai Warriors, I'm probably gonna play both tbh. Especially since I remember seeing the edition of base 4 that came with some kinda anime Blu-Ray at a local retro game store, been a while since I've been there though, it'll probably still be there anyways because I've seen it every time I've gone there. I'd say this is also a good debut for Jacob as well, sort of a more chil vibe, I like the contrast between the two of you.

[@KoeiKollection]

I think both are definitely still worth playing for sure, curious to hear your thoughts on em’ once you get around to playing them! And thanks! I think he’ll be a great fit for the channel😁

[@XueGYang]

What’s crazy is I was just wondering this question

[@DocofDeath1]

THE VOICE CHANGE?

[@LBM428]

He mentioned in a post that he’s got his friend helping with his vids now, like narration, scripts etc

[@davidrivera2906]

The last ? Um what about warriors orochi ultimate ?

[@zeradiusthegreat8148]

I wish they brought back that monopoly game in 2 its was too fun

[@FateburnXVII]

when companies become greedy, it's the consumers who suffers... ;w;

[@megahobbit5972]

4II didnt feel like an expansion but a sidegrade. The issue is it really seems to show it suffered from troubled development. If its due to the lawsuit and being forced to make a whole game instead of expansion pack or whatnot I wont be able to tell that. I think id take regular 4 over 4II 4II isnt bad just seems to have an identity crisis. If things played out differently 4II woulda been an XL and nailed but as it stands its just alright. Finally. Welcome Jacob! Or Jakob? Either way ya got a soothing voice i like it :D

[@KoeiKollection]

After digging into the whole lawsuit situation it got me wondering about what a DW9XL or SW5XL could have looked like hey! But I agree, 4II would have been a perfect XL for 4. Also, thanks for the kind words! I think he’s a perfect fit for the channel😎

[@wolfofpersia2275]

best version of SW4 is spirit of Sanada

[@PiccoloNamexio]

I know that 4-ii is just some kind of expansion. But hey! You can play that game on a toaster laptop😂

[@JelloFluoride]

I personally, hate what they've done with Samurai warriors. 4 onwards isn't anything that I like.

[@AdrianClicksFormally]

This is just 40% of games based on the core Samurai Warriors 4. Wishing the DX Steam version was the fusion of both 4 and 4-II on everything, both Koei Tecmo didn't. Naomasa Ii's character design is amazing. The red devil star of Mikawa who goes first in battle. He looks like Capcom's Zero from Megaman series. Kinda Koei's screw you respond to Capcom. HAHAHA!

[@KoeiKollection]

Oh man Naomasa Ii’s design is incredible, but I’ve never thought about his likeness to Zero before hahaha I can totally see Koei doing that

[@elitefdc2171]

4-2 is DLC fkn sux
