They forgot to make VC2 and 3

Are you saying that it sold like ASS?

I thought Kai had an interesting backstory, which is why I pirated the game. I haven't played it yet though.

No Minerva or Kai optional marriage ending routes.
SEGA investing 0 dollars on the graphics engine lifted from 2008 PS3 VC1 and negative marketing budget.
VC Revolution was bad, hurt the brand for newcomers and rebounding series faithfuls.
No global release killed the hype as spoilers went out.

On the future of VC
-Gacha game
-Remaking and localizing PSP VC3
-Reimagining VC1 with no Selvaria death/enlisting enemies like Fire Emblem series, a what if scenario reboot of VC1
-Series needs a turnaround moment like FE Awakening and FE Heroes saved the Fire Emblem franchise
-MGS5 style punished Gunther VC0 in WW1 that we never got and playable VC1 cemetary old man
-VC5 using the PS4 New Sakura Wars engine

The funny men at Sega thought they could skip the part it took VC1 years to be on most people's radars by literally remaking VC1 again.

Oh also they thought shit like this was a good way to advertise your game

this basically. Really just the marketing bit.

not enough raita in it

How do I get a girlfriend with an ass like this

Imagine starting with VC4. Silly SEGA punked Xbox One players.

Become anime.

The game is ass.

because there's a new weeb game released every single week, shit is saturated

Sega doesn't know what the fuck it's doing with the VC series.

just b yourself bro

Raita needs to buy the VC series IP from SEGA.

That's more like it.

Denuvo, am still waiting for it to be removed.

Because when you open a discussion about Valkyria Chronicles 4, you open up with an image of a butt.

If you opened with, say, a gameplay webm and discussing that then maybe the game would've stayed alive for a bit longer.

You waifu fags need to die off and stop ruining my games.

Sega are retards that don't even know how to sell their games

>MGS5 style punished Gunther VC0 in WW1 that we never got and playable VC1 cemetary old man
Where do I sign

I'm playing it right now trying ti get the plat. The game's pretty good.

No imagine starting with Valkyria Revolution.

Natural Doctrine>>>>Operation darkness>>>>>vc

I gave up with the all Corporal squad members.

It's not hard but it is time consuming and I don't hate myself that much anymore. It's the only trophy I have left.

In a game that should be about tactics and strategy 90% of the time you can just rush people at the goal to get an A rank.

The games aren't really that good.

same here. I'll even buy the beach dlc.

Par for the course for VC, then.

Playing through this game recently and I think the best thing it does is making you feel like a commander engaging with and managing an army and the series would do well to lean into that more.

The story in 4 however is so amazingly abysmal, everything about the setting and premise serves only as window dressing to tell a childhood friend story and it doesn't take advantage of anything really. Times where it seems like them being in the military (like with Kai's betrayal) would play a role in how they handle a situation ends up being kicked to the curb with "Oh lol she's our friend it's all good".

Not to mention 4 games in and I honestly don't think the supernatural aspect of the series makes it better in any way. It ranges from inoffensive to just outright bad and it doesn't make the series unique among JRPG's either.

you already answered your own question, starting a thread about the game and posting a webm of a random ass instead of gameplay or story.

The lack of worldwide release, I moved on because of it.

I got it for the switch, and it runs like shit. There's a four second pause before the start of any dialogue in battle, the frame-rate regularly drops below 30, and the graphics aren't done justice. At least I got that sweet Ragnarok controller sticker.

I learnt my lesson. Do any non-Nintendo published cartridges run well on the switch?

I will never understand this bullshit, why realising a game somewhere and move to weaker consoles?

what a waste

>Ra*ta

are you playing handheld or dock mode? I'm playing dock mode on the switch and never had any issues.

First game only sold well after price redcutions.
PC version sold well at a reduced launch price.
The franchise was never truly successful even at its best.

They turned a character into a tranny in the English localization. Now I can rest easy knowing they will never do that again.

I'm not sure but the winter chapter was when I said fuck it

Is this game any good ? we already know a single ass can turn a decent / mediocre game into a bestseller

Attached: 1556603739526.png (1080x1920, 2.01M)

Wait, Rosetta isn't a tranny in japanese version? Huh?

Because it took them months to do an update that adds JP language.

I don't even get the logic of wanting to pander to VC1 fags anyway, they shit endlessly on anything that isn't VC1 and never even bought VC1 at full price.

No it didn't. I was playing with JP audio day one.

>audio
I didn't say audio.

>Breety gud combat system, fair bit of strategy involved in the missions, can apparently scout rush the missions and ruin the intended way to beat the level, have to do it in order to get S rank(never really tried that)
>AI is retarded but devs make up for it somewhat with unit placements and level design
>You squad mates(Non main cast) have a story to them, some are breety gud, some are meh
>Main cast outside of Raz and Kai(The one with the 10/10 ass) are kinda shit(Minerva was alright), WTF was even the point of the "drama" betwen Claude and Riley
>Story is pure fucking garbage
>No interesting villains, VC1 Selvaria had potential but was killed of in a rather lame way IMO, the real Kai reveal and his goals was fucking garbage that felt like some sort of Chink Leluch rip-off(Leluch from Code geass)
Maybe cont if i feel like adding more

It's fucking BORING to play the story missions. Once again they actively punish exploration and thorough enemy killing by essentially grading on speed alone. That plus 99% of missions being "hurr scout rush the bases" fluff make most of the map pointless to explore and your primary goal repetitive as fuck.

I kinda hope some other developer just shamelessly rips off the core gameplay and does something better with it, because it has a solid foundation that's simply squandered by unimaginative design.

>we already know a single ass can turn a decent / mediocre game
Yeah, because the ass is the only great thing there. The ost and atmosphere are all really just shit.

Docked, mostly. When a character runs into a space that triggers dialogue boxes, its model freezes for several seconds until the dialogue beings. Rain and other effects still happen. I haven't ran into anything that made me quit playing, but just a lot of annoyances.

CAAARLOS you need to go back

Valkyria Revolution was so bad it hurt the brand and no game afterward was going to match the success the first had after losing that amount of goodwill.

Same poster, forgot to add the fact that unless you played VC2 on the PSP and VC3 that was Japan exclusive(and the VC1 remaster) i think there is a 9+(?) year gap betwen the release of VC1 and VC4 which is gonna do a fair bit to bury the franchise and make people forget about it

We need to buy more Raita porn to finance future H games based on SEGA games once he buys their niche IPs.

>Ulala drawn by Raita
yes please

Attached: Ulala.png (3000x4000, 2.06M)

I have this weird feeling he was talking about Valkyria Chronicles but that would be acceptable too.

I was assuming he was implying Raita would buy other niche Sega IPs just to make H games based on them.

>would buy other niche Sega IPs after he bought VC*
I hate when i leave out important words in a post.

Parallel to VC1 and not a sequel.
Gameplay hasn't evovled and it's still mostly built around running mildly nerfed scouts through things as fast as possible.

Then what are you even trying to say retard? That you didn't buy the JPN version and wanted it Nip?

I want to FUCK Kai.

I don't know what they were thinking with Revolution. I bought it because despite all the bad jap reviews I figured that I of all people could wring some enjoyment out of it.

All the characters were walking tropes, the plot was really bad, the game was terribly balanced. And something about pressing a button once and getting a 3 hit combo broke something essential in my mind and I couldn't stop thinking about it 3 months later.
Also I'm a boob man. I love boobs. But those things were way too fucking huge on Brunhilde. And never in my life ever would I ever think I would say some onions shit like that ever.

Yeah this is what's stopped me from actually liking this series, the fact that the only thing that matters is how fast your single scout can take everything plus the time crunch preventing you from wanting to even try doing anything else.

Yikes, Raita is fucking terrible.

VC fucking sucks, it's a terrible franchise, even the first game isn't very good and only sold due to the PS3 having no fucking games and it having a cool aesthetic. Absolute flop of a franchise.

how flat

>But those things were way too fucking huge on Brunhilde.
Scoundrel! You take that back!

I can't. It's a weird feeling when a characters appearance just obliterates all emotional value it's supposed to have for me. Never experienced that before or since. What a ride.

I want to pull a Nacho Vidal on Selvaria if you know what I mean.

They killed the best girl

PC, obviously. I get you're in a hurry to toss shit because that's just who you are, but try to at least know what you're talking about beforehand. Why do you think they did patch it?

why would anyone want to play a strategy game where you have to take control of each character for each movement. heres an idea genius devs: click to move

Skyrim works fine for me

I didn't buy it at launch because they jewed Australia on the price on Steam. And then afterwards I heard the localisation was shit so it's gone on to my list of games to play once I'm fluent in Japanese.

>PC obviously
Man nobody buys PC games

Jap release first, late pc release
Unironically not giving players waifu choices
Multiple failures with the brand and going too safe with 4 ignoring all the positives from 3
No marketing
Negative marketing after jap release
Sexism drama

The ranking system kills the game if you ask me, i played the first game with my own rules, no commands and having to clear the map using every class in the game makes the game much harder and more enjoyable

It only underperformed in sales because while VC1 was good and VC4 was just a better version of VC1, everything in between was subpar or downright awful. As a game, it was the best in the series. Complaints you see are usually made by complete retards like
Also, if you suffered through the shitty English script that's your fault for not knowing moon.

Hit those books user

couldn't fuck the (not)loli's

So what's the deal with Kai? I didn't finish the game. Why is she going by that name or whatever

to cover for her brother while he goes off and runs an extremely stupid 2complex4u plan to free some child soldiers, the story isnt the strong point of the game unfortunately

I seriously want Leena to be my girlfriend so fucking bad bros how do I get her

underrated post. Latina girls won't reject you anons

Protip: If you need to post ass to get people to talk about a game, it's a garbage game.

They're usually bitchy as fuck, have gross skin, and are basically genetically 1 inch from being a Darcsen. Latinas are disgusting

You know I guess I only really liked the series for it's in-depth characterization of side characters and alternate ww1or2?
Starting to realise that really this series just isn't for me anymore. Most this thread kind of proves my point.

I'm not wrong though. PC gamers despite overwhelming consoles userwise fail to sell as many games as consoles. Even with discounts.

Console fags say so much wrong shit on a daily. I really wish smart phones didn't take off like they did so half of you literal idiots stayed away.
