Are there more games like this? (except other edf's)

[El Papà]

I need more of this! Not through story yet but I want more of those japanese games!

Are there anymore in english/german available for PC?

Cheers,

Zangeki no Reginleiv is by the same developers. You use staffs and oversized melee weapons to chop oversized trolls into undersized pieces. Unfortunately, it's a Wii exclusive and never made it to the west. You'd need to import it.

DynaMarisa 3D wears its EDF inspiration on its sleeves (you get fairies with you shouting P-D-F! P-D-F!). It only has single player, but it has an interesting mechanic to its weapon collection where some weapons will be variants that are either worse or better than the baseline weapon in terms of damage, blast radius, reload times et cetera.

In Helldivers you fight alien robots and giant insects. You can call in mechs and airstrikes and wield overpowered weaponry. The core game is a fair bit different in that it's a top-down shooter, but I feel they're very close in spirit.

Lost Planet 2 has some similarities (Giant bugs, lots of guns, over the top) and is also good for co-op. Unfortunately not on PC though, since it still uses GFWL. I can't remember if it supports LAN though, but if it does then you can co-op online using LAN tunneling programs (Like Hamachi). It's worth playing.

Lost Planet 1 is also an option, though it doesn't have a co-op mode and takes itself a bit too seriously, not being as over the top or light hearted as the sequel.

Also from the doujin scene, there's Homura Combat, which is also a blatant EDF clone.

On the "Mowing down Hordes of enemies" front, Dynasty Warriors is also pretty good. Though the PC ports are notoriously bad* Though it's melee focused, not ranged. Bigger budget though... likewise Samurai Warriors (... which is... well, not quite the Same game. They're very similar though. Different setting, for one, but it's hard to descibe the gameplay differences in any detail in a way that'd mean something to someone who hasn't already played one or the other... or at least, i don't have the vocabulary for it right now...)
The weapons in those Can get pretty silly (due to the excessively huge number of characters and people complaining when they shared movesets/weapons instead)

*how and in what way varies. From memory, in some cases it's just "no online multiplayer" because it was designed for a dedicated server (somehow) and the money way never put into setting one up for PC, while in others there are actually gamebreaking bugs. Which is really, really sad, because the console versions are great fun.

GFWL isn't optimal for co-op or anything for that matter but it works, hopefully Capcom will port it to Steamworks since there's a 300+ post over on that forum about petitioning for a Steamworks port.
