That's great! Wake me up when the PC version is availible and I can see if they made an effort to port it properly

[Kenka Banchō 6: Soul & Blood]

yes lol

Doubt it will come to PC, as several games coming to the West from the company have yet to bring us a version. I have to get many on the Vita if I want to play it at this rate (I refuse to get a home console).

Such as? Don't list a single game from the Atelier series, those were never on PC, and they are developped from Gust, not Omega Force.

Heck, their new Berserk Musou game is already confirmed for PC, so I really don't see why they'd skip PC for Toukiden 2. Also, Toukiden is actually one of the rare port they did that was released in both JP and the West.

And believe it or not, the steam version actually sold on par with the PS4 and Vita versions on the west.

Besides, Toukiden 2 hasn't even been announced for the west yet since the game isn't even out in Japan until July

While I hold out hope for Toukiden 2 to be a great game, the performance of the demo on PS4 was abysmal. It was the kind of performance that hurts your eyes to look at it. Control felt very much like the first game, although the world is more open and less of the mission-based geography that these games are known for.

I did a short video on the PS4 demo and my impressions of it.

Thanks for the video, Foxeo! I really hope they port it to PC, but I have a feeling they won't. I couldn't really see the frame drops much, but as you said, it's a video. I'm sure they're pretty obvious when actually playing the game.

Regardless, I'd love to play it, but I'm not buying a PS4 for it. XD

at the very worse, I'll get it on Vita myself.

:Piccolo: :Gohan:

My guess is the PS3 version should be slightly better than the Vita version, if I go by the other Koei games.

Anyone getting the Toukiden2 JP release in a week? going to start on the demo tomorrow (cause the data carries over)

Saw the Vita version, made me want to vomit at how horrible it looks and plays. Even the GBA could produce better quality games. Hopefully they port this to PC for once since we haven't seen many other games, and its the PS4 version.

Still waiting for Samurai Warriors 4 Empires....

[Kenka Banchō 6: Soul & Blood]

Oh yea Hope SW4 Empires coming to STEAM would be nice.

Release version is about on par with Vita version of kiwami so its decent. (Terrian graphics still look like raw sewage but thats to be expected, you can live with it)

They released a 2nd demo about a week before release and it showed a lot of change like more things in the open world so its doesn't feel empty as well as having all weapons accessible. They took care of all of the issues that bothered me from that terrible 1st demo and all the videos we saw beforehand.

Toukiden 2's actually doing pretty decent in Japan. Believe what you want but from my readings.
Reviews are in the High 8s- Low9s from Japan (Its Japan, remember that.)
100K in first week (More than Kiwami but half than Age of Demons which was a vita exclusive)

Top seller for the week in JPN PS Store

A brief decription of the changes from toukiden 2 (excluding new additions)
----
Spears, Longswords and Rifles took a nerf, Dual Knives got the biggest buff followed by Naginatas then Chain&Sickle.

Almost all weapons have a little bit of precision or element, even ailment weapons. Forged weapons look to be the endgame choices like Age of Demons. Lot of hints at an expansion, max equipment rank is 6, a big blank area in the completed map, and about as much content as Age of Demons (which is still a lot)
So it wouldn't surprise me if the PC version of Toukiden 2 was put down but the future expansion does go to PC.

All large oni can appear in groups, there can even be up to 3 at once in free roaming (it gets glitchy and some vanish or bug out, if there's more from meeting up)

Some oni do not return, even the oddest of choices like Aurogrinder but no Terra/Pyro. Sorry Furries, but no Mynx/Pantera. Most of the old ones do not get any new attacks outside of their new tacticts from permanent part breaking

Things that used to last one mission such as praying, bathing, tenko gathering etc Now last a set duration of in-game time, they are also all usuable during online missions except meeting your Tenkos on the field
---

Me and some of the other Gamefaqs crew already translated almost of the mitama and their abilities into a spreadsheet, For builds, some areas improved like more good abilities on one mitama like Devastation + Fervor. But some areas went down, like a lack of weapon related abilities(usually only 1 mitama per ability with a few exceptions). And SPD taking a justifiable heavy nerf (Only 2 mitama having Agility+ Dual now and all stock counts down for example). Base stat raising also took a dip (only 10 mitama with Verity, 9 for Attack Up, 11 for Knowledge).

Don't expect to use the same mitama as before, a lot have gotten big changes or new types like Okada Izo being SPC with average SPC abilities But a lot of the early game mitama can be used for endgame builds this time (even ones obtained in the new Demo which is 20).

They should just port the PS3 version, less issues if it becomes a terrible port again. I'd rather have a game with lower graphics that run well for most than high quality stuff that only runs well for a select few.

update: recent patches buffed Rifles a bit like bigger miasmal nodes and DLC brought back Mynx/Pantera and Screecher/Caterwauler. Rumor has it something big will be added late Sept

Do you think the game will come to PC?

Hard to say. I'm hoping yes, but I also don't want a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ port
