^ this makes the whole situation even more sad. The fact that Oresama exists is now almost-100% under-the-lines confirmed that Ikasama Pirates will be doomed to remain on Taiko Wii 3 forever, as Oresama would be picked in eventual future ports for the updated charting set.

Speaking of sad situations, I never expected to live enough to see the debut of an iconoclasm song that is 100% shit

Because vocaloid,right?

No, because they make sound Gumi's voice like total crap

I mean hell, Ninjinnin and Jinsei Reset Button are 100-times better than this

wow I just realized I forgot what was in the first two packs lol

I remember TCC, Kamikaze, Soroban, Kurenai and Yozakura being part of the first pack, and some repeats from 1st pack plus Toccata, KSai and X-Day for second pack or something
tetsutaro
Meh, just pick ten likely candidates and call it one Taiko Trials 1+2 Pack and done

Like what, Ura Ridge Racer? Taberuna? Fantasie Impromptu? Bumblebee?

I'll just wait for Taiko 14 for new demonic challenges... and maybe replacing Hyakki Yakou with IN THE ZONE Punishment
(... I know it's already on Taiko Trials 2, but that song merits a bis :3)
lol Google search you are amazing.

And if that's not urgent I'll leave the adding later because yeah

Kind of weird that in comparison to my oldest posts I now text in there more closer to crystal's writing style... ^^"

By the way, there is slight censorship in naming: you can't say poop, but you can say faeces (in Japanese counterparts that is. No one is probably gonna stop you naming something puppu in katakana)

OK so I tried that Taiko RPG thingamajig.

It's.....actually pretty bloody hard,and not in the right way.

Remember how PAD is about a combination of team-building and puzzling skills?
With Taiko RPG it's about team-building skills,maybe basic taiko skills just for that power-up don thing,
and pretty much pure luck.

Seriously,in order to deal any decent damage at all you need to ultilize the strike mechanic,but chances are the positions of those chibi-dons
on your drum are -not- where you want them to be.Not to mention all those obstacles+bumpers+moving pins+whatever blocking your way.


Team-building wise you really need to pull a decent leader,even moreso than PAD.Fail to pull anything decent?You're probably fucked once you get to that violin-playing guy.(which btw,is the boss of the dungeon right after the two tutorial ones)
Srsly that guy hits -hard- and attacks every turn.His skill?Covering up the entire screen so you don't know which side to focus and when to launch those chibi-dons.You'll probably deal shit damage too unless you've got enough strikes+power ups but even so it's still gonna take you a couple of turns to finish him,in which every turn he takes away a chunk of your meager HP.

It's bad enough that the final boss of the next dungeon (some girl guitarist) is actually -easier-.

I spent 2 stones on that bugger,even with a friend leader who buffs my RCV.
That's like getting my ass kicked by the dungeon of fire on PAD.

Conclusion: Taiko Team can't into RPG
tetsutaro
Conclusion: Having pachinko dictate your life is bad and you should feel bad if you find it unprecedently more fun than legit rhythm Taiko action.

Because the problem is not the RPG
crystalsuicune
Plot-wise I...pretty much tl;dr'd since I can't into moonspeak.
The characters seem to take their names from famous composers,at least.

Odd thing is,the game seems to make use of 3 art styles,namely the usual taiko style,the sort you see in 3DS2 characters
and the generic CG stuff you see in other games.
Not saying I don't like it,but the CG stuff does look jarring when placed alongside the more simplified styles of the former 2.


Also,maybe it's just me but it seems that levelling up your mons is more of a hassle here.On PAD feeding is pretty cost-effective in the first couple levels.
Here?Not so much.

But yeah the biggest drawback is the reliance on luck during battle,be it dealing damage,healing,skill-charging and chaining strikes.There's not much of a learning curve since it's pretty much all about luck anyways.

Are you writing it because if not then I'll do it

EDIT: tetsu how do you get the Earth costume in 3DS2 again? I have it but I forgot how I got it and none of the guides mentioned it orz (writing up a full guide on all story mode costumes on the unlock page you made)
Lokamp
Well I tried the Taiko take on P&D as well.

Pros
-) More than 1 monster can drop on each floor of the dungeons
-) Many structures similar to P&D (which help a -lot- people like me who doesn't know Japanese)

Cons
-) ...pretty much what Crystal said.

Overall, while enjoyable at bits, this is a carbon-copy of P&D-styled gaming ^^"
(also where do I find the code for friend-adding?)

whoops I messed up the Icarus and Pirate outfit requirements

Fixing now

Apparently they don't have the earth costume either orz

But hmm there's at least a couple more on this guide that I don't have, like the Compass costume....how do you get into the back room in the water cave?

Well I'm not surprised if the other mechanics are similar to PAD,it IS a successful business method after all.

It's just...it didn't quite nail down the same things that made PAD so enjoyable.

In PAD your efforts do count.You have a -sense of control- since you get to directly choose when to attack,when to heal,what have you.
You know that getting the right team isn't everything,you also need to know how to puzzle.
You might feel frustrated,but at least you have an idea about what you -can- do to make things easier.

Here?You don't havd that control.Once you get your chibi-dons moving it's all up to fate to decide things.Even if you know how to build a good team,
luck can still screw you over and you can't do anything about it.


Ps.
One of the mini-boss levels before the actual boss can take away a large chunk of my HP,even though my leader's leader skill reduce damage of that element.
That was one of those early levels.
My second run against violin guy?I got wiped.In one hit.Cooldown time when you enter the floor?One.
Go figure.

Good: PuyoQuest has key characters in Fever: Amitie/Sig/Rider as starter choice, other key characters drop from quests digs up tons of minor characters from PP2/3/4/F/F2

crystalsuicune
I think with those you need to use the REM,the stuff you get while dungeon-crawling are just minor characters nobody gives a shit about.

I'm not really surprised with that tbh,my major beef is still with the core gameplay.
Even if it's taiko,it's still a big turn-off from me.


I'm only going on because I want something actually good from the REM gdi
