Toukiden: Kiwami
Ahh good ol' port ‘problems’.
Keyboard controls and keybinding
For those of you familliar with rebinding keys in the days of PPSSPP/PCSX2 and/or playing ports like DMC3SE on PC with just a keyboard, rest assured - you’ll feel right at home with this game.
For those unwilling to re-map their brains to memorize that left shift is L1 and spacebar is R1 and so on, for your own sanity, stay away. Stay FAR away from ANY game that was ported from a non-PC platform to PC. Also, stay away the ported game’s guides/walkthroughs/tutorials, because they’re all gonna probably be referencing the controller keys instead of the keyboard keys too.

I’ve played enough time to give it a fair review.
I’ve been wanting this game for months before its release on steam, and when it came out, I didn’t buy it immediately. I pretty much guessed it will be buggy and pricey. so I grabbed it 6 months later after patches were made. at 50% off.
Buy this game if:
+You like Japanese setting
+You like monster hunter
Do not buy this game if:
-You don’t have controller
-You only have low end PCs
-You don’t want 30fps-lock
-You expect an English voice over

Touhou Mechanical Scrollery | 幻想討幻経
“Gorgeous 3D bullet hell action RPG that Touhou girls are flying!ヽ(=´▽'=)ﾉ”
[1] Intro
Touhou Mechanical Scrollery. This game is a Touhou Project fan game from developer Mikosansaho and publisher Phoenixx. It features the 3D bullet hell where flying Touhou girls hunt gigantic mecha spiders across gorgeous landscapes. Recently the game has been re-polished, this new update also fixes the mouse and keyboard support issues, and it keeps the frame stable. In other words, the time has come to take a look this game again!

Alright so normally I don’t review games, but I will drop one for this game. I got this game on launch and been playing it off and on since, due to a variety of reasons. On day one was there a lot of issues for a game that tried to delay to fix the issues? yes there was. However even then I got the issues fixed using a controller and just taking it out of fullscreen mode.
But here is my over all review either way. Is the game fun? Yes I feel it is very fun, with some similarities to other games I have played. It was my third game in the bullet hell-esque genre I have played, and I feel for a 3D Bullet hell, it game me what I wanted. Areas where verticality mattered versus some opponents, such as the Bat-Types and the Land Dragon types, and others where horizontal movement was more important, as seen with the Oni Type, the Sky dragon, and a few others.

Tropicalia
O jogo tem uma temática bem divertida, com elementos culturais do Brasil o que torna bem satisfatório de jogar. O que eu acho que poderia melhorar é a história ser mais relacionada, questão dos NPC’s darem dicas de onde você deveria ir para completar a história.

Worth trying out, and definitely suggest buying, but expect to face some frustrations (not shocking given the nature of early access).
The Pros:
Combat is pretty easy to figure out.
Fresh setting that stands out from similar games
Definitely feels retro.
If you feel you hit a wall, pretty grind-friendly.
Nice use of crafting and skill learning.
Needs Improvement:
Equipment relies heavily on crafting, which is nice, but it looks like your material inventory limit is 4, which feels way too low given how much you are expected to make/use while traveling.

Toukiden 2
TL;DR: Great gameplay and really cool gear and skill customization, but the game is bogged down by some glaring technical / interface issues. Get it on console if you can, as many of the issues are largely PC specific (practically unusable voicechat, no mouse support, not-great controller support, hackers, poor text chat.) Get it on PC only if the game is really appealing to you and you have no other way to play it. And if you’ve played Kiwami, you may want to skip this, because it’s $60 for what is basically a reskin of Kiwami with a few new weapons and abilities (and a bunch of Kiwami’s stuff actually taken AWAY, for that matter.)

Let’s get to the short answer to the question “should I buy Toukiden 2?”
If you’re a fan of monster hunter games then it’s a good match. If you’re just curious about it, you’d better think twice.
It’s almost impossible to describe this game without mentioning Monster Hunter, but you should not go in expecting a similar experience. Here are a bunch of bullet point considerations in no particular order:
-The game community is tiny and therefore the amount of data available is miniscule, even compared to God Eater. If you can’t make your way around Japanese websites, you’re going to have a hard time figuring out how gear and weapons work.

GOD EATER 2 Rage Burst
God Eater is an amazing game! It’s basically Monster Hunter but unlike MH =

This game actually has a great storyline and characters with personalities.

There is a character in this game called Kanon who is clumsy and missfires so much she
will feel like an endgame boss blowing you away with every shot, even when she tries to
heal you she will send you flying from her explosive healing rounds, it’s kawaii as f.

Well, this won’t be an easy game to review.
Let’s start with the basics:
-
By buying God Eater 2 Rage Burst (the second game in the series), you’ll get God Eater Ressurection (the first game revised and remastered) free. There’s no special edition, the two games are one.
-
This games genre is known as “Hunter”, made famous by Capcom’s title Monster Hunter. It resembles a common beat’em up/hack and slash, but there are a couple differences from regular titles. The most notable things about a Hunter game is:

A Fishy RPG
I received this game as a curator from developers to try it out and give an honest opinion about it. Well, this game is boring and pointless. Maybe somebody is gonna like it, I don’t. Also, there is a bug in the game that does not let you quit the game, so I had to restart my computer in order to get rid of it. I uninstalled it, and yet Steam was showing that I’m inside the game, and counting hours played…. And the game itself is, you go around and catch fish. And even though people say that pixelated games are now in, I had my share of playing Commodore 64 in 1980’s, why in gods name would I want to play something as ugly as this game? Even the pixelated games can look good. (Dungeon of the endless for example). This game is plane ugly.

A small retro style mid 80’s arcade game
The Developer has tried for an approachable classic look, and considering the requested price tag has definitely aimed for a niche market.
Calling the game an RPG is a bit of a stretch but one does have Character Skills to grow and choose between which do affect how your interaction with the world goes down. This primary interaction, is an arcade interface fishing action with the prime directive being to discover more interesting and valuable 8-bit fishies.

GOD EATER 3
Well, having played for a bit now, I am pleased to say, being a fan of the other two God Eaters, this one has not disappointed. Mouse and Keyboard works perfectly for me, I’ve had no problems with either one. It has better graphics and runs perfectly.
My computer doesn’t meet all the minimum requirements, but I’ve had no problems with it running smooth on high graphic settings. My graphics card is only a GTX 745 and the minimum suggested one is GTX 760. So there is something for those who meet the requirements but have problems. Your computer is the issue, not the game.

After finishing the main storyline I believe it’s time to review this fantastic game.
This third entry adds a chunk of new stuff, such as:
-
Two weapon types: Biting Edges and Heavy Moons; the first one is basically a dual blade wielding style, which you can even combine to form a glaive and unleash a new set of combos, while the latter is a human sized chakram which can morph into a giant axe when charged or during some attacks;
-
Two new features called Engage and Acceleration Trigger: The first let’s you and your party members (be it AI or player controlled character) give yourselves some neat passive bonuses such as HP regen, faster movement or attack speed and so on, while the latter, while still gives you some passive bonuses, has a requirement (which differ for each Acceleration Trigger) that you must satisfy in order to have those buff granted (some example are to don’t get hit by an enemy for 20 seconds, do a ground combo for a total of 5 times, etcetera);

Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin
The title says MH Stories well i should note there is not much story going on in this game, but that is to be expected from capcom and a monster hunter game!

i really enjoyed the rock,paper,scissor style for the battles and how the animations worked to really show that style!
so many cool monsters and most of them can be obtained as monsties! hey you monster hunter fans out there who want to mount your favorite monster when they wont try to knock you off, get this game right now cause thats what you’re about to do here!

Really enjoyed the game, its a bit grindy and my only concern is the lobby for co op missions which rarely find people to play with, so i end up doing solo.

Monster Hunter Stories 2: Wings of Ruin Trial Version
I’ve sunk 10.3 hours into this game at this point on the trial. I haven’t even finished it. Monsters are at 11. Found plenty of eggs. Maxing out my armors available. I am actually really enjoying this game. I have several other preorders I need to do first so I’m gonna finish this trial up before I move onto the full game at this point.
People complaining you can’t play the game with mouse and keyboard. It’s completely playable. I’ve had zero issues with it at all.
I dont actually have any complaints with the trial at this point. In 10 hours I should have found something that was actually complaint worthy but there really isn’t. Sure if I alt tab I have to reapply full screen. Not a big deal.

Recommended with a big caveat.
First, I’ve never played a single Monster Hunter game, but I’ve seen others play, so what follows is a review of the game in mostly a vacuum. This is a very simplistic JRPG that borrows from the Monster Hunter universe, but at its core, it is a turn-based “Rock, Paper, Scissors” combat game based heavily on RNG. It’s not for me, but I think there’s probably lots of people who would have fun with it.
The good:
-
Nice character designs
-
You get to customize the MC
