Ok, played about 40 minutes of the new toukiden 2 demo.
The positives :
1- runs slightly better tha first demo
2- looks slightly better too.
3-The game intro was nice, i wanted to find out more.
Negatives :
1- Pop ins still an issue. Even in the intro tutorial which is basically 2 corridors and not the open world, stuff was popping in left and right. I can only imagine how it's going to be in big areas. I think this is Temco cheap design descion instead of optimization since its not an open world issue (seems to happen in normal closed areas too)
2- Game performance still lacking. I can handle pop ins, its no big deal in games espically since its mostly trees and objects and not enemies like AOT, but I'd like some better framerate in return :(. 4 minions, a mini boss and the game started shugging. Get rid of the fucking colored attack effects and give me a solid performace anyday. Whats going to happen when 2-3 bosses and small enemies are on screen ?
Also, I see people talk about its open world as an excuse for its performace. The game isnt really an open world, more like open areas with loading in between. Anyways, I think I'm still going to hold out on this in hopes for 2-3 patches. Btw Dragon Quest heroes 2 still looks and runs better than this and has similar map structure too.
