Toukiden 2 Gameplay Chapter 5 - The Kidnapping of the Shrine Maiden
Toukiden 2 (討鬼伝2) is an action role-playing game developed by Omega Force and published by Koei Tecmo for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation Vita. The game is the sequel to Toukiden: The Age of Demons.
New to the Toukiden series, the element of Control is also empowered by Mitama, which specialises in summoning Oni to fight for the player. Mitama grow and develop during battles. In order to increase the levels of your Boosts, you must meet the upgrade conditions of each Boost and have sufficient proficiency with them. The upgrade conditions differ for each Mitama and Boost. Each Mitama can learn up to nine Boosts, but you can only equip three of them at a time.
Toukiden 2's gameplay has changed a lot since the first Toukiden series.
- World exploration has shifted to be open world unlike Toukiden 1 which has limited world exploration. Hunting grounds from previous games return with alterations. Certain sections of the world map will be locked depending on the player's progression with the main story; destinations may also be marked when fulfilling requests. Mahoroba Village serves as the game's new primary day and night system unlike the first Toukiden which only have day time. Player's spare inventory and setups can be accessed from chests scattered across the world map.
- Unlike Toukiden 1 which limited the player in raising only one Tenko, players can raise multiple Tenko and give them names. If well-cared for, they will occasionally find items and follow the protagonist.
- The combat in Toukiden 2 has been altered to be seamless encounters that happen anywhere in the field. One of the most notable change in Toukiden 2 introduces the concept of "Demon Hand". A new secondary feature for traveling and fighting giant demons. The invention can hook onto objects or minor demons to quickly close distances or destroy obstacles. Against giant demons it can do the following: stun them, lock onto a specific body part or completely obliterate a demon's body part(s).
- Slayers have a new faster running ability
Automatons are deployed to scavenge for items in different locations, though they may receive damage upon returning. Damaged automatons can be repaired or made stronger by augmenting them with various materials.
-Using the Professor's research facility allows players to craft better materials from item drops. Adding more materials increases the crafting's success rate.
-A miasma gauge appears when entering corrupted areas. If this gauge is completely filled, the player character will perish. End miasma by cutting down the demon within the cursed stone.
-Regions have hazard levels ranging from safe to dangerous. Eliminating demons raises the area's safety which unlocks new items and weapons.
Golden Slayer seals act as a new optional collection quest. Hunt for every hidden seal around the world to get a special prize.
- Medium-sized demons have been added in Toukiden 2. They are the middle ground between common and giant ones.
- While players can still enhance their equipment by visiting the blacksmith, they may occasionally encounter the blacksmith prodigy Kiyomaro who provides superior bonuses.
- Every weapon has updated actions added to their movesets from the first Toukiden. New weapons include the sword and shield and the trick whip.
- Players can gain temporary buffs and skills by eating Kuon's meals. New recipes are added as more requests or story events are cleared.
The game's setting takes place two years after Kiwami. In Toukiden 2, players will assume the mantle of a mysterious Slayer who has awakened after a ten-year slumber to a world shrouded in darkness. As revealed in Toukiden: The Age of Demons, humanity was protected for centuries by a secret clan of warriors, the Slayers, trained to dispose of the supernatural threat before it could consume the world. An event known as the Awakening caused rifts to appear in space and time – resurfacing places that had long disappeared from the world and unleashing swarms of Oni that relentlessly hunted humans.
The group of the neutral side decided to resolve the conflict by kidnapping Kaguya the young Shrine Maiden and hope that the heat of the conflict would cool down a bit with the Shrine Maiden kidnapped while the two sides fight each other. Benizuki was confused at the kidnapping scene and decided to play along the stage which resulted in a funny awkward scene as she didn't act according to the stage much to Homura and the main character's awkward face over her acting. Despite the kidnapping, the group still need to find a way to strengthen the Shrine Maiden's barrier. Professor remembered the Machina stone and told the group to go back to the Machina ruin in Age of War for Kaguya's barrier power.
By the way, I noticed that there was a problem with the video. Must be a bit graphic problem of the game during the game recording. I will make sure the next video doesn't have this problem
