Koei Tecmo has done a remarkable job of telling the many stories of the many people that make Romance of the Three Kingdoms such a compelling book and period of history, and the beautiful cinematic consistency makes it the most perfect realisation of everything Koei Tecmo has been aiming for with this series over many years now.
The transition to an open world has not been easy, quite rough in fact. Still, Dynasty Warriors 9's many changes to the musou formula hold great promise for the future. This is the rebirth the series needed, regardless of its issues.

It’s fun yet flawed, and while it would be recommended to fans of this style, the recommendation comes with caveats. It doesn’t quite excel at being a traditional Dynasty Warriors game or taking the formula to a new open world format, but does a good enough job at both where it’s enjoyable but not exceptional.
If you're into the idea of playing an open world game where its arcadey elements are entwined with therapeutic but sometimes dry exploration, give it a shot.
Dynasty Warriors 9 moves into an open world and suffers because of it. The world itself is lifeless, the hunting gimmicky and missions design repetitive. Wiping out armies single-handedly is still enjoyable however, with plenty of characters to unlock, it's just a shame the game doesn't do more with its obvious potential.
The lack of multiplayer, missing alternate game modes, and emptiness of ancient China left me far from satisfied.
Dynasty Warriors finally gets the overhaul it’s long been waiting for… and while it addresses a few old problems it creates just as many new ones.
Numerous cool characters, beautiful Chinese background, unremitting action, fast game play
The downside is that the normal ps4 frame is bad. I will trust the patch. please.
I hope the grandeur of the background is better.
But give 10 points to match the average.

While this DW game is far from perfect, most of them are. KT has tried something completely foreign to their dev team and it shows, but core parts of what make DW games fun is still present if your willing to look past the janky open world and some technical hitches you may catch yourself having a good time. While I was expecting a little more from the first nexgen DW game I am still having a good time after 15 hours which to means I'll probably keep playing. I still miss 2-player splitscreen and the lack of extra play modes is a little upsetting but they tried something out of their box and the get kudos for that.

Definitely not as bad as you think.
I have played every Warriors/Musou game released in the west. Some are good, some are bad.
Being a longtime fan of the series I looked forward to Dynasty Warriors 9 quite a lot.
Started playing the game a couple of days ago and first impressions were really bad.
Horrible frame rate, worst voice acting since DW2, repetitive combat even by Warriors standard and overall a disappointing experience. I'm also not a big fan of open-world games anymore, since it's in every damn game nowadays. And the world in DW9 is kinda boring.
The only thing I could think of while playing the first hour was: "this is not the game I've been waiting for since DW8, almost 5 years ago".
But then the patch came out and the framerate got a lot better, and I gave it a few more hours, and oh boy the game got better. The combat is kinda smooth and the new combo system is quite nice. I like the way the story is handled, kinda interesting to see a new way of telling the same old story in Dynasty Warriors. The big open-world is still boring but it's starting to grow on me, especially since it's the only gameworld where I really feel like i'm taking part in a huge battlefield.
Even with it's ups and downs, I do respect Omega Force for trying something new.
It might not be the Dynasty Warriors 9 I wanted, and compared to Dynasty Warriors 8 it's a step back, but if you're a fan of Warriors/Musou like me, then give it a try. It gets better, you just gotta give it some time.
Just remember to change the voices to japanese or chinese.

The open would is an interesting take on the Dynasty Warriors games, but it doesn't excuse the lack of content and the boring world to explore. Just stick to Dynasty Warriors 8.

This game is not worth buying for many reasons. First of all, the graphics look dated and low-cost production. The game should have existed in PS3 era, not in PS4. The map is ugly with no high-quality details, and it is totally empty. In addition, most areas in the whole map look the same with just a bit of different shade. Besides, there is broken physics. Everything in the game are like feather. When I play the game, I do not feel any weight in it. According to the broken physics, the charecters' motions are lifeless and look unnatural when each part of their body or cloth moves. Second of all, the game play is quite boring. Just mashing buttons again and again. How you play the game in your first 30 mins will be the same as when you spend the next 20-30 hours. It is really repetitive because you have to do the same thing again and again, so you just mash the buttons over and over for hours. There is no variety of missions since you just go kick some bosses' asses to make a progress in the story, even the side missons are not that different from the main ones. So, that's why the core gameplay is repetitive. Next, the collectibles including crafting systems are not attractive enough to go and collect them. Third of all, the presentation is weak because the cutscenes are dull, lifeless and ugly. They are not fun to watch. Moreover, the dialogue scenes are so borinh that I don't care to watch even though I love reading the Three Kingdoms novels. As a result, with low-end graphic, cheap production value, broken physics, repititive gameplay, and uninspired story presenation, the game is not worth your time and money, and it is listed as one of the most disappointing game of 2018.
