This PC port has had very little done to it in terms of upgrades from the Vita original, in general, the visuals look very clean and sharp due to the higher resolution but the stages looking very angular and empty. ItвЂ™s surprising that those elements are so prominent in the localisation as it has trimmed down the sexual focus of the transformations from the original Japanese release so IвЂ™d have expected the sisterвЂ™s literal love for each other to be toned down. This combined with the creepy incestuous/perverted relationship of the main protagonists might be enough to put anyone off that mightвЂ™ve been interested in the core brawling gameplay despite it being nothing spectacular. This is completely over the top and feels like the cheap titillation is there solely to distract you from the distinctly average combat.

LetвЂ™s talk about boobies like Senran Kagura before it, there is a heavy focus on bouncing mammaries making the most of all those lingerie patterns, and also like that series the game has clothing explode from characterвЂ™s bodies after particularly successful combos.

These items include the expected cat/dog/bunny ears type of things but also a ton of lingerie designs. There are also unlockable items purchasable with in-game funds, these include music tracks, images and video but items also extend to clothing and accessories for characters. There are multiple difficulties, hidden stages and collectables to be found encouraging replaying stages. Initially, you have to complete each stage with character pairings as dictated by the story but can be played with any character after the fact. Each chapter consists of multiple stages and has a boss fight as the story extends to reveal there is more going on that what is initially suggested. This ties into the basic levelling system where XP earnt in battles gets spent on raising the stats of each character in both Extar and Liberator forms, as the Extar level rises the Drive attacks become more powerful.Д®ach stage typically starts with you moving from arena to arena taking out groups of enemies before you end up in a one-on-one fight with one of your fellow classmates as you learn to control the virus and get stronger. ItвЂ™s just not got a lot of depth.ДЄs you deal damage you fill up a вЂњDriveвЂќ bar, which when activated causes your partner to transform into your weapon giving your attacks more damage as well as adding or changing the available combos.

ThatвЂ™s not to say the combat canвЂ™t be fun, it can tend to devolve into button-mashing but in the moment it can still be enjoyable. In practice it feels like a neutered Dynasty Warriors, the combos you pull off are more simplistic and the amount of enemies onscreen is nowhere near that seriesвЂ™ scale.Д®ach of the seven characters have their own moveset but they all play in a very similar manner due to the basic combat. This is combined with knockback and dashes to mix things up. So far so awkward, but what is the gameplay actually like? The game uses a very simplistic combo system where combinations of two attack buttons lead to different attack sequences. Lots of references to grabbing boobs or touching various characterвЂ™s rears. The plot is essentially just an excuse to have the girls pair up so they have ample setup for lewd jokes, the main protagonists being sisters makes a lot of the humour pretty cringy. Whilst in their weapon вЂњExtarвЂќ form the characters are apparently still sentient and bond in some way with their Liberator but none of that is ever communicated or relevant in gameplay. How and why these girls can transform into spears, swords and other assorted weaponry is never explained, nor even shown during transformations. Especially as it immediately leans into the stereotypical anime school trope. This is exactly as ludicrous as it sounds. The VR virus allows those affected to transform into literal weapons called вЂњExtarsвЂќ or wield them as a вЂњLiberatorвЂќ. Valkyrie Drive -Bhikkhuni- is an arena brawler set on Bhikkhuni Island where girls infected with something called the VR virus go to be cured. How has doubling down on the busty anime brawler turned out? An odd obsession with exploding clothes? Check.

Teenage girl fighters with big assets? Check. Known mostly for the Senran Kagura series, MarvellousвЂ™ latest title shares some similarities with that franchise. Reviews // 26th Jun 2017 - 4 years ago // By Simon Brown Valkyrie Drive -Bhikkhuni-В Review
