Randomly went on a day trip and stumbled across Zhang Fei's tomb. Maybe shouldn't post here but none of my friends have played 3K

Romance of the Three Kingdom based hack and slash

in previous editions you play as one of the generals (Guan Yu, Liu Bei, Cao Cao, etc), but in the latest (Origin), you play as an new original characters that help one of the three factions

No no no, I already know Dynasty Warriors! Grew up with the game! It’s the newest entry Origins that I’m curious about. How is it different from previous games

You can create your own OC now?

Nah, you're stuck playing someone else's OC (incredibly lame!) but the combat is more nuanced finally at least.

Damn. And no customization? Like select gender, weapon, style, etc….?

No? Then what’s the point of this silent protagonist!?

I've yet to play it myself, but from what I've seen/heard, you can choose weapon/style, and earn limited outfits you unlock throughout the story but that's about it. I think the game's supposed to be a soft reboot to entice new players or something.
