Tenchu: Stealth Assassins

[Anonymous No.7115705]

Thoughts on Tenchu? Currently playing through it for the first time and enjoying it quite a bit. The soundtrack especially stands. The English voice acting is absolutely dreadful however. Is the sequel just as good?

[Anonymous No.7115712]

Here's a boss fight I dunno.

[Anonymous No.7115790]

One of my favorite series. With the first one being my favorite.
First one is definitely the best. Even with the limitations of the system and tank controls.

Second game is also very good but far worse in comparison. They managed to make the draw distance worse. Borked up the amazing art style they had on the first one. Same with the music. On the plus side, controls are better and they attempt an animu style plot.

Third one is excellent. They go back to the good music and good art style. Controls are also great and they add a bunch of cool new things.

Fourth one is very similar to the third, feels more like a spin-off. It's a girls only Tenchu that works well. Has an annoying timing thing with the stealth kills but it's optional.

DS Tenchu sucks ass.
PSP sucks too but you can play as Onikage, that's cool. Also, PS2 Tenchu ports.
Wii/PSP Tenchu sucks ass. Motion controls and gimmicks.
I haven't played Tenchu Z.

IMO: Tenchu > Tenchu 3 > Tenchu 2 > Tenchu Kurenai > The rest
Also, try Shinobido. The original team behind Tenchu moved on to it once the franchise got out of their hands.

Sequel is slower paced (less janky too), and revolves around political melodrama rather than the supernatural. I prefer it actually. PSP game was close to it in style as well.

Whenever I say Tenchu 2 is not the best there's always someone who spergs all over my comment about how it improved EVERYTHING.
You might just like it. Like I said, it's a great game on its own, but IMO worse than 1 and 3 in comparison.
But if you liked the art and music from the first one, then you're definitely going to miss it. Still, a must play.

Also, Japan has two versions of the first Tenchu.
The version that got released overseas later had improved AI, two extra stages and some tweaks. So they re-released it in Japan. In the first version you fight both bosses at once on the first stage.

[Anonymous No.7117550]

The sequel controls a little better, but it has no music and the draw distance is awful. Voice acting is quite better seeing the plucked Colonel and Meryl from MGS to voice people, and also Luis from RE4 is Rikimaru. Worst offender for me is how they butchered the ranking system. Still a good game and worth playing, though.

Tenchu looks quite good and has a serviceable story and characters, but completely fails at being a good stealth game.
The most essential element of satisfying stealth gameplay is being aware of your surroundings at all times. Games from similar time solved it in different ways - MGS went with an obvious and simple solution of placing a radar in a corner, Thief went a bit more nuanced way of making footsteps comically loud and having guards grumble and hum tunes to telegraph their presence with 3D sound. Tenchu has neither of these, and to make it worse it also has tank controls. You have a massive blind spot behind your back and to the sides, and can't even whip the camera around quickly like in Thief because there's no mouse aiming on PS1. To make matters worse, peeking around corners is contextual like in MGS, but not every wall can be leaned against, and there's no clear visual indication.
The game feels like trying to sneak a 60 ton tank through a china shop. I didn't enjoy playing it at all.

Yes and no.
Art style is similar, but not as good.
Music is similar, but not as good.
Characters/Story is worse.
The gameplay is where Shinobido shines. You can see that Acquire wanted to try a shitload of new things with Tenchu but it was too late.
The whole engine they use is very very interesting. You can do several things using the AI and mechanics that makes it so that you have a dozen different approaches to each mission, depending on how you want to play it.
There are three factions fighting for power in the game. They'll fight each other if they have the chance. You can take on missions for any of the three lords, but it changes what happens next depending on how much you fuck it up.
For example, let's say you're on a mission to steal faction A's rice supplies. If you're spotted during the mission and don't kill the witnesses, your reputation will drop with faction A.
Also, the next time you enter a mission and faction A soldiers are in the map, they'll often stop during their walking routes and complain about being hungry. Giving you a huge window for a stealth kill.
You can deliver or steal weapon plans, which will also make it so that each faction will have soldiers with more and better equipment.
There was a mission in a mountain where a group of 8 soldiers were transporting money, all 8 walking very close to each other, nearly impossible to stealth kill all without a lengthy fight.
I found a bear and lured it with rice balls so it'd cross paths with the convoy. The bear ended up killing 6 of them before dying, so I finished the other two and finished the mission.
And I haven't even talked about alchemy. You can gather plants and ingredients and make all sorts of different potions, then infuse any of the items with it.

Controls take a while to learn, because you kinda run pretty fast and crouching while moving the camera is janky. But know that after that, you'll be able to zip through stages like no one's business.

[Anonymous No.7122165]

Just beat the game with Ayame. While certainly a little janky it's still quite enjoyable overall. The atmosphere, art direction and music are outstanding. My favorite levels were Missions 9 (Reclaim the Castle) and 5 (Execute the Corrupt Minister). I like that it doesn't solely focus on stealth but gives you enough combat prowess to take care of business once you get found out - actually digg the combat quite a bit even though a few more attack moves would've been welcome. The boss fights ARE GARBAGE - all of them! As is the voice acting. Intentional or not, that shit is straight up heinous.

Yeah, I am aware that it looks like that for some when they view the grids zoomed out. Although my browser doesn't behave that way (pic related is what it looks like for me). I believe it happens when a browser applies absolutely no filtering at all (and it's a poor show btw). Because the only way I can reproduce the effect is when using honeyview and turning off both smoothing and sharpening effects. In short, none of the screenshots have been resized - I just stitch them together - and they look best when opened in a separate tab at full size. Or you know, just get a better browser maybe? jk

Chrome, it's fine if I click on the image to expand, but hovering via the built in "image inline expansion" in the settings break it.

Btw a different question, I never used CRT shaders, how big is the difference when you sit far away from the screen?
It's been a while that used a CRT, but from what I remember there wasn't that much of a difference from a distance.
In fact I would think if you put a shader like that on a big tv it would probably look nothing like it used to back then.

[Anonymous No.7136531]

>>7136524
Shaders become less noticeable the further away from the screen you sit of course. And certain crt shaders can be very fatiguing to the eye when viewed up close - mainly when the scanlines are very pronounced and your screen is really bright. It'll literally leave a grid afterimage imprinted in your mind. Not nice. Witt the shader I was using here I'd say the only thing left when viewed from afar is a shift to a warmer color palette maybe? Which I also enjoy honestly.

It's called crt-royale-xm29plus - one of the standard presets in RetroArch these days. All parameters are unchanged.

If you are, like me, in the habit of recording gameplay clips and converting them into WebMs then I can't recommend doing so with this shaders applied. Either remove the shader or turn off GPU recording in RetroArch. Otherwise you won't get satisfactory results unless you only record very very short clips at higher resolutions. This clip >>7115705 was recorded with GPU recording disabled which grabs the image before any shaders and resizing of the image takes place - but I can still play with the shader enable while recording all the same which is nice.

To get the best rank you either have to be totally undetected or stealth kill everybody if you got spotted once. Going unseen and leaving everybody alive is a real challenge though so I mostly used to just kill everybody. When you sneak up on somebody and they don't see you before you get close enough you can one hit kill them, no combat involved at all. That being said the combat is actually pretty fun, kinda souls like with a lot of rolling, blocking and whiff punishment as only viable way to deal damage. Combat is not easy, I think it's hard almost to a point of punishment because it is supposed to be avoided.

But there's boss fights. Those can't be stealth killed.

I remember liking it too, it was different but it had nice things like creating your own ninja and a shitton of missions, could probably be the Tenchu with more content. But I also remember the ranking system being fucked up and it probably has "aged" (I don't like the word but you know what I mean) worse than the Ps2 games, art direction wasn't too good and like most early games from that gen they just looked worse than the last games of the preceding gen. If you liked the realist setting Fatal Shadows was 100% that, personally my favourite in the series.

Tenchu has a lot of potential.

Even that one I made ffs.
Not the video tho, that'd be a shitload of work.
Also here's the same kid but in the US version. By the time the game got ported overseas the kid got tired.

I used to think Ps1 Tenchu were great but kinda ugly games but some years ago I played the first one in a CRT with a decent cable and noticed that even if it's technically crude compared to other games it can still look really beautiful.

It has a great art direction.
Wonky models and low res textures apart, they absolutely nailed it with the colors.

I could never get into it. The Japanese supernatural aspect of Wrath of Heaven is awesome, and I like Rikimaru and Ayame. Tenchu Z also looks really ugly despite being an entire generation newer. Has that nasty 7th gen tinted image and worse art direction.

I have never played it but would have liked to.
Still pretty damn salty over the fact that it only got a fucking xbox release.

This series is what i wished FS would have brought back instead of Sekiro.

Not bashing Sekiro or anything since it was a solid game but would have liked to see Tenchu make a return. Maybe someday...

I was always confused by the connection between Fromsoft and Tenchu. None of the games I played ever had the logo. Looks like they had nothing to do with Wrath of Heaven, which is my favorite.
If there's any game Tenchu doesn't need to be anything like, it is Bloodborne.

From Software never had anything to do with Tenchu. The only Tenchu they developed is a xbox360 one that looks like bomberman.
The DS one was developed by some other chumps. The rest were all by either Acquire or K2.
They just own the rights to the franchise ATM, that's all.

I guess they were thinking about developing a Tenchu themselves at some point, since supposedly Sekiro started as one.

[Anonymous No.7145223]

K2 seemed quite interesting and unknown guys, I think they went to work in Dragon's Dogma too.

if this thing ever became BC with Xbox One onwards i'd buy it in a heartbeat, but unfortunately I dunno if my old xbox is up to snuff.

classic tenchu straight up is nigh-entirely made of 90 degree walls that you can creep against, and you straight up have a button that disconnects the camera from following you to get a bigger look around yourself or from around corners than Metal Gear Solid had. Plus you had an indicator for a general vicinity of the nearest person. if anything you had a ton of leeway, the biggest problem was finagling the controls.

Z has a worse and soulless presentation and it's only 30 fps on top of being clunky when moving.

I looked up the Japanese cover art and nope, its just the same grotesque polygonal face except worse because it's brighter.

It's stealth-action. Half the game is about the combat and cool gadgets. The stealth works up until you get fighting. Pure stealth is a different style.

I'll never stop being mad at From baiting and switching with fucking Sekiro. Fuck those faggots.

I'm glad they didn't try to make a Tenchu game. They'd suck ass at it.
