Gaijin Troubles

It’s awesome. It has really great, beautiful graphics, cute characters and really fun gameplay. I also absolutely love the soundtrack. especially the music that plays when you’re out and about just walking around. I love this game so much. So much that i did a speedrun of it! The game is a little laggy though, but it’s most likely my PC lol I’ll admit though, the lag actually allowed me to clip through some things in my speedrun :)

I mean, it’s tremendously flawed with poor hit detection, troublesome camera, unwieldy fighting system … but it’s still kind of fun in a dumb way, primarily because it’s schoolgirls. Check it out if it’s on sale, you’ll have some fun with it.

Mother Russia Bleeds

Mother Russia Bleeds

tl;dr: Game has more depth than it initially seems, sound/art design is fantastic, and it actually gets support from devs

One of the most brutal, rewarding beatemups out there. And I’m not only talking about the aesthetic, which is brutally beautiful in its own right.

First, to get it out of the way: Mother Russia Bleeds is not a particularly well-balanced game. It’s a hard game on its normal difficulty, sometimes approaching the point of cheapness with the amount of enemies they can throw at you. This is especially hard when you’re playing by yourself - the game can often turn into a game of managing space so you don’t get annihilated - but this issue is mostly alleviated if you have a co-op partner. If you’re new or casual to beatemups, go for Easy for your first run.

Mother Russia Bleeds is a new age classic that suffers from some bad game balancing mechanics and, as it stands currently, some bugs that can ruin the game play experience.

Story

Not going to lie, they actually went all out with this. It’s a pretty deep story considering this is a simple beat ‘em up game. There is some fairly rich dialog during and between the stages that set up a lot of the story and tap in to your emotions so you care more about the journey / characters lives. The bosses usually all have some kind of “Bad guy monolog” so that it fires you up to just want to kill them before the fight begins which I thought was a really nice touch.

Onechanbara Z2: Chaos

Onechanbara Z2: Chaos

This one might be a little extensive but I liked it enough to complete the whole thing so I might as well write my thoughts..

This is a pretty decent hack & slash game, I spent about 60 hours of gameplay in total completing it casually and then going for every unlock and achievement. I wouldn’t consider it one of the best or the most difficult but something about mastering the combo chains for every character and fiddling with the extensive customization options kept it interesting. I might even keep playing it past that point and try for personal challenge runs.

! and maybe playing with the customizations more..

Onechanbara Z2: Chaos is a hack and slash game where you chop up minions of the underworld…. with scantily clad ladies. Okay not all are scantily clad, but half of the casts are, unless you dress up the other half in similar outfits. Anyway, in this game, you will use your blades or other weapons to dismember, chop, bifuricate, decapitate zombies, werewolfs, gargoyles etc. You get to play as four women, with Aya and Saki making another appearance from their previous Onechanbara games (not on PC), as the representative of a Vampire branch clan called the Baneful, and the newcomers Kagura and Saaya that represents the Vampire clans. Aya and Kagura are the matured women shown on the game cover, providing the role of the big sister, also known as onee-chan (hence the game title), while Saaya and Saki are the younger sisters aka imouto.

SENRAN KAGURA SHINOVI VERSUS

SENRAN KAGURA SHINOVI VERSUS

If not for this game, I would never have given Senran Kagura another chance after watching the anime adaptation’s first episode.

A great game by musou game standards (A single overpowered character batting aside hundreds of weaker foes).

While there are some downsides to the game, it’s easily my second favourite title of the genre after the Dynasty Warriors spinoff, Samurai Warriors. Battles are fast paced and at some times challenging; the 22 playable characters all manage to feel distinct even though the combo maps only differ a little for the most part; the soundtrack is really, REALLY good!

Real player with 58.5 hrs in game

Don’t think of this series as just a vehicle for sexy characters. As much as the aesthetic and vibe of the sexy anime schoolgirls, every other aspect of the game is given close attention and is high quality. The soundtrack is gigantic and full of extremely catchy and intricate hard rock tunes. The sheer amount of voice actors and how many lines they all recorded is massive. The controls and battle mechanics are ridiculously fluid and fun. The story is voluminous.

The good:

Fighting through the levels can become more like a dance given all of the choices you get for how to slice and dice your enemies. You can launch them in the air and follow up with a mid-air combo, you can instead work through big groups with ground combos or use special attacks which are saved up for by getting more combo hits.

Shank 2

Shank 2

Short version:

Pros:

  • Enjoyable campaign

  • Satisfying, brutal combat

  • Challenging

  • Good amount of content

  • Lots of unlockables

  • Survival co-op

Cons:

  • You can get stun-locked during combat

  • No campaign co-op

  • Sometimes controls feel a tad unresponsive

“Long” version:

Shank 2 is a 2D beat-‘em-up developed and published by Klei Entertainment.

This is the studio that gave us Mark of the Ninja so I was super excited to try this out.

You play as Shank and you must save your mentor Elena from some bad guys.

Real player with 22.5 hrs in game

Interestingly enough, I ended up picking up Shank 2 before the original. Don’t ask why, I honestly don’t remember other than it was somewhat of an impulse buy as I loved the demo. If you’ve played the original Shank, you know what you’re getting into. If you haven’t, Shank is a grind house style 2D action game where you shoot, slash, and sometimes shank your way through waves of enemies. The artwork is all 2D in a hand drawn style and looks beautiful. Excellent character animations (especially death animations) really bring the game to life. While the original Shank was relatively bare bones in terms of level presentation Shank 2 has a lot going on in these levels. It’s not exactly Rayman Origins but it does look pretty great.

Yakuza 0

Yakuza 0

Hello friends,

Today i will review the game Yakuza 0. This is the first in the series of yakuza games, but not the first one made for the series. This is basically the game that lets you understand the rest of the series. Note: If any of this info is wrong, please tell me in the comments in my review and ill change it immedietly..thank you. Anyways, this game follows two characters that are part of the yakuza, or trying to join the yakuza. Withought spoiling too much, the game follows the two characters thru many adventures in the game. Also, there is alot of side content. The time associated with my playing is because of the side stuff. You might just like the side stuff in the game and ignore the main story for awhile. It is quite addictive to just do the side things and ignore the main story. Anyways, some of the side stuff is actually pretty hard too. So here is my pro/con list:

Real player with 264.8 hrs in game

I’ve had so much fun with this one.

Way too many unforgettable moments and characters.

The side quests and mini games are so entertaining that sometimes I stop for a while and remember I’ve got a main story to complete. Even still, the main story is sensational.

You get to also play as two of the most chad protagonists in gaming history, why wouldn’t you wanna do that?

9/10

Cinderella Escape 2 Revenge

Cinderella Escape 2 Revenge

Cinderella Escape 2 Revenge is, I should say, a follow up for the game Cinderella Escape. Unlike the previous game, there is no puzzle at all here, instead you just beat up mobs and bosses, while collecting coins. It takes place after the previous game, since the beginning of this game tells you what happened in the previous game. You play as the titular character herself, trying to make her way through an unknown kingdom while being helped by her fairy godmother (which does not even have a 3D model of herself).

I have played to 100% completion (main story, challenges, unlockables, etc.) It was fun enough for me to spend 8-9 hours completing and unlocking everything but I can’t recommend it for everyone. First of all, the price is pretty steep considering how quickly you can blast through the main story. (If you watch all the cutscenes and read all of the dialogue, you can finish the 14 chapters well under 2 hrs.) The combat is too shallow and the levels aren’t very challenging at all.

I didn’t start to run into any difficulty until after I had beat the story on normal & hard, and then got really far up on the challenges list. This was when I was about 75% complete with everything. Then the game very quickly turns into a grind fest where you have to level up your character to unlock the next challenge. By this point, your character becomes so powerful that the game very quickly becomes too easy again, and you’re just grinding to level up and unlock the rest of the challenges so you can steam roll through them.

DEAD OR ALIVE 5 Last Round: Core Fighters

DEAD OR ALIVE 5 Last Round: Core Fighters

I love this game, but I’m not going to recommend it without severe reservations. The base is an excellent fighter, but the port is worse than the console versions in so many ways. Many of those ways concern the online multiplayer part of the game though, so if you’ve got a bunch of friends in your area to play this with they might not be so much of an issue.

I’m going to split this in two sections; the base game and the platform comparison. Scroll down if you want to read in what ways it’s worse (and better) than the PS4 version.

This is a difficult game for me to review.

In general, I fucking love the Dead or Alive games.

The fighting engine was classically fast and skillful without requiring knowledge of enjoyment-obliterating exploits or skin peelingly long sessions of practice to get to a basic level of gameplay.

Though it will historically be known as the series that boldly upheld the grand tradition of cheesecake and beefcake heavy character designs, the actual fighting system of advantage and reversal is much deeper in scope than nearly all of its peers, and spreading out the lengthy character movesets across less buttons means its easier for an unpracticed player picking up the controls for the first time to feel like they’re accomplishing something beyond just marveling at the various buff studly men and hot sassy ladies.

Deep Dark Fight

This game is not OK, it is bad. All sounds in game (music, jumps, sound of your death) are very annoing (but not gachi sounds of course). 1/2 of levels are VERY boring. Bosses are very boring, too. The last level had made so bad, that I deleted game. This game is not rofl-able, it is too good for that (but it is too bad to play it serios). I don’t want to play this game for free, and paying even 300$ hm hm… 1,5$ for it is silly

SENRAN KAGURA Burst Re:Newal

SENRAN KAGURA Burst Re:Newal

Overall, this is the best Senran Kagura game, but with a few caveats.

Senran Kagura: Burst Re:Newal is a complete remake of Senran Kagura: Burst which was a side-scrolling beat ‘em up on Nintendo 3DS and the first game in the Senran Kagura series. The story is the same but everything else was rebuilt from the ground up. If you’re new to the series I recommend starting here. Being the latest entry, Burst Re:Newal has by far the best graphics and gameplay out of all mainline Senran Kagura games, and the story takes you all the way to the beginning and does a very good job of introducing the setting and characters.

Preclaimer
  • This isn’t a game with fanservice. This is fanservice using it’s disguise as a game as excuse to be in your Steam library. Yes, I make this a valid point to know.

Chronology

Yes, big busted lewd ninjas come with a story somewhat continuing throughout the main games of the series. If you care about understanding the later ones, you should know the prior ones.

All side games though are spinoffs not really needing any knowledge, but they basically play after the main series.
