If you are a fan of Koei Tecmo’s Romance of the Three Kingdoms series, you know the pain. For decades, we have bounced between two distinct flavors: the grand, nation-ruling macro strategy of games like ROTK XI and XIV , and the intimate, character-driven drama of the "Officer Play" titles like ROTK VII , VIII , X , and XIII .
