No matter the insurmountable terrors and anxieties I encounter in my everyday life, I can turn to this game for worse. 10/10, Ka is the best
I feel like I would have enjoyed my time with this game more if I had that little drum controller that replicates the drums from the arcade version. Playing on a controller doesn't have that much of an appeal on me and the motion control option is really inconsistent to be viable in anything outside easy and normal. Also, fuck the 5 dollar subscription paywall for so many of the songs
The best recent Taiko game, no doubt. Wii5 still clears unfortunately
Even better than Drum n' Fun, Amazing Taiko Game, Party Modes are great (And being updated), a whole story mode, which while very...ages 4+, it's inclusion wasn't necessary at all so it being here is nice
Same with the shop and character customization
My only complaint is the regular taiko mode doesn't have a lot of songs because it has a paid subscription
But the songs that are free are still good so still reccomend

Good lord why is the story mode formatted like this. I had to play Taiko for upwards of 15 hours to beat it all. AND IT WASN'T EVEN A GOOD STORY. I like Taiko man, I really do. But not this much taiko in such a short span. This was supposed to be my side game while I played a longer RPG! And it'll probably end up taking about as much time! That's ridiculous. And they even lock most of the good songs in this game behind the subscription service. It's just meh. Drum n' Fun is better.
i love taiko no tatsujin.
as a drummer, it's the easiest in to the world or rhythm games. it's simple, as drumming should be - two types of hits, top and bottom, not 8 fucking buttons or whatever the hell beatmania is asking you for. just hit things good at the right time. this score is not low because the core gameplay of taiko is any worse than any other game. it isn't. it's great.
the story mode, if you can even call it here, is abysmal. it feels machine translated and is largely incoherent. maybe it was incoherent in the original - it is completely dull and largely a waste of time, but more annoyingly isn't a linear mode you complete - you get dripfed segments from playing the game. it takes something like 20 hours to get all the songs from this mode, and it just feels like a chore mashing through the garbage.
this game introduces the idea of taiko as a live service, which is inherently evil even at the relatively low price point of $3. If this game was a standalone live service with no cost of entry, sure, fine. you can't sell a full price game and then gate 90% of the content behind a paywall.
well, maybe you can, but i'm old and i don't fucking like it. eat my ass. don don KA.

Very fun but it hurts my brain going from Muse dash to Taiko. Hololive songs are in the dlc pass and I really like that
I love this little freak
Advertised as having story didn't, not many songs in base game so music pass is required to have fun
I just don't get bored of this game. I started playing it for fun and it is now part of my cardio routine. I stopped playing last year cuz my drum broke but I'm back at it again!
The business practices are criminal, but the rhythm gaming is fun. The side content is also enjoyable.
Caro como la mier y de contenido base no tiene un carajo, tenes que garpar para que el juego sea bueno y eso lo hace muy caro
Personally my favorite rhythm FRANCHISE but the song selection in this game is… interesting. Coming from a fairly experienced player usually playing 9 star extremes, the song selection is not fit for that. All of the songs are good, and if you are newer to Taiko then it will probably work, but either the songs are way too easy or way too hard, and the only way to fulfill that desire of good charts is to pay for a bullcrap subscription.
Better than what I've played of Drum n Fun, has a better song selection as well.
Abo-Wahn killed the Arcade Game. MOMENT MAL.
Paar Euro für 3 Monate mehr Weeb-Musik ist ganz solide. In unregelmäßigen Abständen kommt auch neue Musik in das Abo dazu. Gratis Spielmodi Patch war letztens eine nette Abwechslung, wenn auch kaum irgendwie interessant.
Leider weicht die Auswahl der Songs zwischen Taiko no Tatsujin: Pop Tap Beat und Rhythm Festival teils stark ab und man müsste hin und her switchen (haha) um die volle Bandbreite des Spiels abzubekommen.
Rhythm Festival besitzt wohl trotzdem mit dem besten Einstieg in die Serie - abseits von Fanspielen - um das Rhytmus-Gefühl zu üben. Egal ob angepasste Noten, die die Latenz zwischen Taiko, oder kabellosem Gamepad beheben sollen oder ein Modi, bei dem man die Noten langsamer abspielen kann. Es ist wirklich viel Service-Zeug dabei, wenn man wirklich es drauf anlegen will, Songs auf Extrem meistern zu wollen.
Ich liebe es fortschritte zu machen und die erlangt man selbst, wenn man mal ein oder zwei Wochen Pause macht.
p.s. die Plastik-Taiko ist ohne Drumpad-Mod komplett schrott-ig und man wird wansinnig beim trommeln. Außer man lebt in einem Stahlbunker ohne Nachbarn.

Simply a lot of fun! I love rhythm games and this game has an eclectic, unexpected weird variety of songs to go through.
The taiko mode and song selection is top notch, best selection out of any game in the franchise. Then they locked it behind a subscription service and included the worst online mode I've ever seen... Story also sucks and takes ages to progress.
