Toukiden is a very good Monster Hunter clone, with a better story and a streamlined combat system. If you don't have a Nintendo console but you want to go hunting monsters with some friends, Toukiden is the game for you.
I like that Toukiden is close to like Tenchu z for the 360 but made a similar game for the vita. I am very impressed with the game. I think they should keep these kind of Japanese games going for the vita.
El hijo supera al padre, es un Monster Hunter pero con las batallas tan dinámicas como las de Ragnarok, una historia muy profunda y unos enemigos bastante variados, BSO asombrosa y un estilo totalmente nuevo.
llevo casi 100 horas jugadas gracias a su Online y me queda mas de la mitad de quest disponibles.
10/10 y quien piense lo contrario, no lo ha jugado lo suficiente.
A good take on the hunter genre, with great action, good graphics and excellent music. Sometimes it´s a bit repetitive and tedious with the grind, but overall it´s a worthy experience.
Toukiden is a clone of Monster Hunter... which is not so original on PS Vita, but this one is quite well executed and interesting to play. An acceptable alternative to Capcom's series, for PS Vita owners.
It’s a well put-together, decently entertaining, and entirely unambitious demon-slaying action game with neither the depth and character of Monster Hunter nor the arresting, gruesome strangeness of Soul Sacrifice. There’s better than this available on the Vita.
I wish I could say that this is the better Monster Hunter. But it isn’t. Where Capcom gives you depth and a meaningful daily fantasy business this is merely a collection of fast paced battles against a limited number of enemy types.
It's a perfectly good game, I was very surprised by the amount of usefulness the AI characters bring, and that you actually care about some of them if you play the Story Mode.
Some weapons might feel a bit "button mashy" but if you hate that, just pick the Bow or the Gauntlets :P
There are some similarities to other games such as Monster Hunter and PSO, if you liked either of them by all means download the Demo and consider that while in the Demo there is a limit of 3000 Haku (Currency) and 30 Item Slots in your box, these limits do not exist in the full game (Haku is unlimited and the item box holds up to 700 items AFAIK).
Toukiden successfully emulates Monster Hunters massive boss fights but sacrifices gameplay depth for a faster pacing. Still it's a fun game to play with a great multiplayer.
This game was pretty fun, but could become frustrating at times. I liked the graphics and story (although for this type of game I'm not too fussy about the graphics and story). Gameplay is pretty fun if you like hack and slash games with big enemies.
This game feels like a simpler Monster Hunter game. In some ways it's a good thing, like how farming materials doesn't seem to take as long (you don't seem to need as much material to craft equipment) and there aren't very many gathering quests. Killing missions also seemed quicker (not as much running around trying to find the monster as there was with MH). On the downside, however, you can't buy/craft items to use on missions (such as the pitfall trap, stamina potions, or bombs), which takes away from the strategy. Instead you choose between a number of 'Mitama' types (each type comes with 3 skills you can use in battle) which decide what type of strategy you can use (it's a neat idea and some of the skills are pretty useful and fun). I like that the game has the same 'destroy and cut off certain body parts' goal as MH, but it doesn't have the same feel since 1) the parts need to be purified quickly or they will regenerate, 2) even if you purify a part, the demon can still use that part (it just becomes transparent), and 3) later on it takes much longer to purify body parts (if no one helps you purify, you'll usually have to cut the part twice before you can fully purify it).
What I really liked about the game was that you can take up to 3 AI players in single player (kinda similar to the cats in MH). The only downside here is you have no control over them for their equipment or strategy (would be nice if you could tell them to help you break all parts, to help you purify dismembered body parts, or to use their skills). I also like being able to see the demons health whenever I want.
What frustrated me was that some of the hits against me didn't feel fair (such as if I roll to dodge an attack but still get hit even if it looked like I was far enough away from the attack). Or sometimes I'd take damage just for being close to the enemy (away from where it was attacking). Basically, it felt like the enemy's range is larger than what you see (I'd get hit without seeing what actually hit me).
Bottom line: As someone who loves the MH series, I thought this was a fun game and felt similar to a MH game, but it still didn't have the same draw as an actual MH game. Glad to have the game in my collection, but still wish there was an english MH game for the Vita.
The eerie amount of similarities between this game and monster hunter is a little bit disturbing. The only place to start is to state that a game that plagiarizes bits of another game's engine and content. This title is a monster hunter clone without any of the real thrill of hunting the "monsters". The title is trite and boring and really leaves me wanting more out of my purchase. Probably one of the worst Monster hunter clones out there if you take into account the story mode.
The only positive this game gets is the graphics which pushes the vita to the limit. I am rating this game very low due to lack of originality and lack of game-play elements comparing to the game it has copied.
Just a terrible Monster Hunter ripoff on the worlds worst handheld portable gaming console nothing to see here. The people who give it good reviews are just trying to support a dead console.
SummaryTOUKIDEN takes Tecmo Koei's expertise in historically themed games to an expansive fantasy world influenced by historical and traditional Japanese elements. Developed by the same studio that created the famed Dynasty Warriors series, this all-new franchise casts players in the role of a demon-fighting Slayer. Starting from the Utakata Vi...
