Honestly Ma Chao's armor peaked at DW3 which is saying something because he's pretty consistent in the good design department.
Except for DW6 where he's just Cloud.
On that note why do Basara fans have no idea that the director left the company and that's why there's no more shit, on top of the mobile game and it's Sanada game flopping horribly?

if anything 6's roster cuts were half assed which was the real issue, like let's think about it.
>Meng Huo/Zhu Rong
I love them but they are peak filler, I'm fine with them not existing in a mainline game, but include them in empires and such for filling out the map.
>Jiang Wei
the most pointless addition in the series until 7 finally gave him a reason to exist beyond being a Zhuge fanboy, the fact that he debuted in DW3 and only appears in 2 stages says a lot about how random of a pick he truly was from his introduction, I do love playing as him in every game with that said.
>Zuo Ci
mystics shouldn't be playable, let alone we have another character that only exists to jerk Liu Bei off and tell Cao Cao that he is the villain, as if that wasn't obvious to the audience.
>Da Qiao
completely pointless character but removing her and keeping Xiao Qiao feels like a refusal to commit because they knew Japan loved both of them, should've either gotten rid of both of them or kept both of them, having one without the other feels very wrong.
>Pang De
why the fuck did they remove him? The dude is perfect drama fodder for Ma Chao and gets to interact with quite a few Wei characters as well.
Hell 6 didn't even decide to fix up characters that barely existed, and it was the start of stuff like Cao Pi and Zhen Ji becoming irrelevant compared to DW5.

I remember the reason behind no Cao Ren was "I wanted to do him justice and not job horribly to Xu Shu as the climax of his character arc"
Which is fair, but someone still has to eat the L so yet again It's Xiahou Yuan ready to take another L.
