SAMURAI WARRIORS 4-II puts you in the shoes of multiple different officers and leaders in the Warring States Era of Japan, as they try to unify the land. This game's modes are as follows:
Story Mode
Free Mode (Story mode but you can pick any character from the game's roster that you've unlocked.)
Survival Mode (Get as high up the tower as you can)

Unlike Dynasty Warriors, you can create your own characters using generic weapons, and after a while of playing the story mode, weapons of playable characters in the game,

They've added two new types of attacks, as well: Hyper attacks and Special attacks. You also get to play as two characters (almost) at once.

Also, there's an area morale system. Areas that are showing different shades of red have enemies that are a bit more difficult to kill, unless something on the battlefield happens that lower that area's enemy morale, or standard bearers in the area are killed.

• A multitude of officers to play as, each with their own abilities. This could slightly counteract the game's repetitiveness.
  
• Able to get objectives done quicker on single player thanks to having two playable characters at once.
  
• Gameplay seems to have a bit more to it.

• Levels can get repetitive, especially since most of the maps on certain stories are the same as in previous stories, just with different playable characters.
  
• Japanese only voices. While this personally doesn't bother me, some people might not like this.
  
• Unskippable cutscenes. For people who like games driven by a story, this probably doesn't matter. However, players that might want to get into the action without having to look at the cutscenes.

All in all, this game comes with its flaws, just like most games. For people who like a story driven game where you get to see battles from different perspectives, I believe this game can be for you. Those who don't like overly repetitive gameplay might have a small bit of trouble, though it probably won't be that big of a deal.

I personally find the game quite enjoyable, so I think this game deserves a Recommendation from me.

Happy playing!
