Tensura: King of Monsters was recently released in English Version. Of course, this is good news for players across the world since they can play this game easily. Tensura is a RPG game that is originally from China developed by Hoolai Games.
Since this game was released, you may first play Tensura in the Chinese version, right? After the English version comes, you may want to switch to playing this game in English Version. Then, you may wonder how to play Tensura in the English version? Is it the same as playing it in the Chinese version? Okay, let’s dive into our post to find out information about it!
Is It Easy to Tensura: King of Monsters in English Version?
Since many players who incidentally come from outside China, of course Tensura in the English version is something to be eagerly awaited and certainly the best version in the language. As an international language, of course this game will be very easy to play by players from various parts of the world.
At the beginning of the loading screen, there is no difference between the Chinese Version and English Version. Both versions show the presentation of the game where the screen displays the character, complete with the 3D animations. Each menu is provided in English, so you can easily navigate to the menu you want.
Of course, you can also see the dialogue between the character and the explanation of the game in English. With the release of the English version, you may be able to follow the character’s dialogue easier.
Each character’s stat is also shown in English version including the enemy intelligence that consists of shadow slash, shadow technique – dancing oni kill array, haunting of the shadows. The point is, each presentation, dialogue, navigation, menu, etc. available in Tensura is shown in English.
How Worth The Tensura English Version?
If we talk about how worth Tensura English Version is, many sources reveal that Tensura English Version is not really worth it. Why?
According to gamebraves.com, the English used in Tensura: King of Monsters is really poor and can actually be misleading. There are so many poor phrases or wonky translations in the game.
For example, the description of Hakuro [Kijin]’s Aptitude, Sword Heart Realm. So far, Tensura never really describes what auto attack stage count. Well, there’s no such thing and all the skill does is give Hakuro (Kijin) an opportunity to do extra hits with each hit.
Reportedly, the Tensura English version has a lot of inconsistent terminology. The words ‘floating’ and ‘suspended’ are two different states that the players can put enemies into. However, both words were actually the same thing.
In this case, many players surely wonder why this game cannot just use the same forms for its combat mechanics. Of course, this is such a problem which can be easily fixed. Unfortunately, it seems that English is the least of the game’s priorities.
Additionally, many players are confused about the term ‘Social Network’. They think this menu will reveal the social features, like a friend list. In fact, ‘Social Network’ means a relationship chart of the game’s characters, inconveniently titled, ‘Connection Net’.
Since Tensura: King of Monsters is made in Taiwan, of course that is no excuse for the state of the game’s poor localisation. However, poor translations really take away from the immersion at best and outright confuse the player at worst.
How Good is the Tensura King of Monsters Presentation Screen?
For a mobile gacha game, Tensura actually creates in-game models gorgeously, complete with their own 3D animations. At the beginning of the loading screen, the in-game secretary will welcome and greet you clearly visible and expressive.
However, the in-game secretary will always have the same spoken Japanese dialogue the moment you start up the game. To see the subtitles, you will need to tap on them to require them to say a different line.
In addition to in-game secretary’s greetings, in-game fights have also attracted the same visual attention to detail. Well, the 3D animated scenes which play out as a character uses a skill are amazingly well-made.
In this case, Hoolai Game Ltd, the developer of Tensura King of Monsters, didn’t cut corners in making those short scenes. Some scenes such as Souei (Ogre)’s ultimate skill when he clones himself to gang up on one unfortune enemy are breathtaking.
In addition to characters, Tensura’s menu design and UI are also fine. They actually follow the Great Sage theme loosely from the anime. For the unfamiliar, Great Sage is something like an artificial intelligence that helps monitor Rimuru’s status and skills. Furthermore, this game even tells you that as you turn on auto combat, the Great Sage is taking, which is a good nod to the anime.
Additionally, in-game backgrounds are also rather generic. In battles, the players can see many of the same greenery and forests used as background. Well, the gang recycles a lot of shots in the story cut scenes from the anime and some of the backdrop.
What Are the Issues That Occur in Tensura: King of Monsters?
Based on the players’ experience, too many bugs and too little online features are the main issues that the players encounter when playing Tensura: King of Monsters.
A lot of players complained that they experienced a fair amount of crashes in the first six days of playing the game, with some being as often as every two missions or more. In addition to causing the crashes, Tensura also has its fair share of bugs. The most popular bug is one of the relics in Space Gap mode.
So far, the bug is persistent and does not go away with a simple restart. Some players even reported more complicated bugs such as being locked out of one time story updates.
In addition to too many bugs, Tensura is also reported to have too few online features. It is known that Tensura does not have a way to connect with other players at all and even a chat function is not available. Of course, many players feel sorely missing simple online features available in Tensura.
