Total War: Three Kingdoms introduced the best diplomacy and character systems in the franchise's history, creating a game that excels at generating memorable stories of alliance and betrayal, though its abandoned support and incomplete content leave a visible gap between what it achieved and what it could have become.

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty brings Team Ninja's signature combat design to a Three Kingdoms setting with impressive results. The deflect system and spirit gauge create a rhythm of aggressive, precise play that stands apart from other games in the soulslike genre, and the best boss fights rank among the studio's finest work. A repetitive second half, limited enemy variety, and a PC version that launched with significant performance problems keep it from reaching the heights of Team Ninja's previous titles. It's a flawed but rewarding action RPG that delivers on its combat promise even when the surrounding game can't always keep up.
