about to play this game, what does Yea Forums think about it?
the girls look cute

cmon vc bros i heard its better than 1 in every way, is that true?
Just fucking play it if you want to; why the fuck do need to have a chan thread spoiling everything for you before you play?
i just wanted to hear some opinions, im going to play the game anyway, chill you goddamn retard
It improves on the gameplay in 1. As for story, it's either about the same or worse than 1. Characters are cool though.
Hes not wrong though ur being a retard too. Praise kek
why no you're a retard too then fuck you
is the game as "hard" as 1?
The game is pretty easy, i had troubles A ranking just one mission in the entire game.
The one with bombs and paratroopers
>pretty easy
fuck i hoped they would make it a bit more challenging but whatever
I'd say the average mission is more challenging than in 1 and somewhat less exploitable, there aren't such distinct difficulty spikes like in 1. However it's been made easier to get a good rank.
>distinct difficulty spikes
ah ok, got it, thank you
VC3 retranslation never ever. ;_;
amazing gameplay, did all the DLCs as well
some of the worst writing i've ever seen in a game, aside from some very entertaining isolated lines of dialogue

fucking based
For me it's Lily.
i love that there is a character in this game whose literal character flaw is "don't put them near male troops or they get horny"
The Empire had legitimacy to the nations it invaded including bitchass Gallia. Also, the Darcsens are niggfags who should get shipped off to some tiny penal colonial island which will be named Niggland.
Residents will be called Nigglanders. The Valkyrur needed that ragnite to live but the dark blue haired niggfags hogged it up.
whoa hold on there buddy, you cant ship away my brown cuties
>VC4 writing
>Valkyria Chronicles 4
>Ceasefire ensures Empire keeps all their territory including the subjugated nations like the Nord Republic, the Kingdom of Fhirald and the entire more than a 3rd of the Federation that they conquered, but hey at least we didn't use nukes; peace at any cost amirite?
>Valkyria Chronicles 2
>Set 2 years after 4 and the war between Federation and Empire is back in full swing. The 20 million soldiers that died in operation Northern Cross as well as countless partisans and Darscens in Imperial territory along with Raz and Christel died for literally nothing, all so our protaganist can avoid killing a single girl by nuking a city already abandoned by the civilian population an in turn enabling a genocide.
I like that in an inadvertent attempt to make a typical Jap "nukes bad mmkay" message they accidentally made nuking Japan seem like the best possible choice in hindsight, but goddamn does it make the glum ending of VC4 even more depressing, just fuck Raz right MC? Just let the Empire kill his entire race after he fucking died for you. Just fuck that Nord partisan that literally took a bullet for you, fuck his entire country right Claude, you utter fucking mongoloid. Did they just straight up forget that VC2 is set two years after VC1/3/4? 90% of the team that worked on 4 also worked on 2 for fucks sake.
>Caring about opinions
Literal cretin.
It's basically just "People said they wanted more of 1, let's literally just do something like 1 again but with minor changes." If you liked 1 and want more, you'll probably like 4. That is not a bad thing, I enjoyed it thoroughly because of that.
Also
>thought Kai was best girl
>she's great but slowly end up thinking Minerva is best
>she's also great, but in the end realise that the true best girl is Vancey
Kai is a spy got an entire ship full of people killed; she should be hung, a fat ass doesn't stop her from being scum.
The story felt like two different ideas mashed together in the most messy way possible.
X-0 are the least interesting villains in the series and its a shame because pic related could have been really interesting given his work with valkyria had the writers had him do literally anything.
Weren't you fighting against some radical Gallians in 2?
fun game, great characters
Maximilian BIGGEST FAG OF ALL TIME
I love VC4 but it needs the class variety of 2 and 3 back
You're just asking to get spoiled. Dont say nobody warned you
These guys just care about you enjoying the game. Rum while you still can
It was fun but one prominent mechanic from past games are not present. Your team has no valkyrias
The rest of the world didn't magically dissappear, the Empire and the Federation are back at war and both are trying to get Gallia, which hilariously is fuelling the fire by selling ragnite to both sides, to exclusively deal with their side.
game was pretty fun
story was dogshit though
IIRC the enemies in 2 were Gallian nobles that went "DARCSEN GENOCIDE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE" which is a big problem because the Royal Family revealed themselves as Darcsens, so is basically a civil war.
Also, there are some transfer Empire students to try to lower the tensions.
I liked 4 becuase it shows more of the War outside of Galia
where that pic from, I need more selvaria pls
The writing on VC4 was kinda retarded. That whole we using little girls as bombs, and somehow Forcetti was the villian didnt made shit sense. Also, they killed the fucking best character for absolute retarded reasons as well. Overall the game was alright, but the main story sucked a bit desu
>want to play as them
>only have shitty crossbows
name me a worse weapon than that
The problem with Forsetti is that while he exist to show the Federation is just as bad as the Empire, he still works with people who do the same shit he is trying to stop.
Gameplay
4 > 1 > 3 > 2

3 > 1 > 4 > 2
Please Sega don't give up on this franchise.
If another VC game happens please set it after 2 so we don't know the fucking end result at the start of the game thanks.
ptsd
I doubt they'll do another after the awful sales figures 4 got, but they were dropping lots of hints about a Vinland vs notJapan war brewing in 4, so it's likely that was where the series was GOING to go if it hadn't bombed.
it didn't bomb tho
Haven't pretty much all VC games "bombed" near release? VC1 only gaining traction way after the original release.
Can we talk how fucking progressive is that the Federation lets women, Darcsens (niggers) and trannies be soldiers? but they use little girls as bomb and fuel
Darcsens are more jews/gypsy
Bros...
It massively bombed, SEGA gave it a huge budget and even said it fell "well below expectations."
VC1, 2 and 3(in Japan) all fell within expectations (which were lower that 4's due to being lower budget), yes even 2 in the West, the reason 3 never got localised wasn't because of 2 having poor sales that's a myth that's been perpetuated for far too long. The reason 3 didn't get a localisation is because it was released so late in the PSP's lifecycle that it came out the same year as the Vita in Japan, and a localisation would have been released within the VITA's launch window.
Dunno about better, but it sure got harder, final mission is balls to the wall, it even forces you to pick the hard difficulty if you want the true end.
>sega marketing thought this was a good idea to help sell 4
youtu.be
Who thought it was a good idea to make weak points that you have to target with grenadiers? It always felt like luck trying to hit the Lupus or the radiators.
Post your favourite non-main girl for each game
For me it's
VC1 - Freesia
VC2 - Magari
VC3 - Gisele
VC4 - Neige
What you on about? It bombed hard in Japan, worst first week sales in the entire series, unless the west magically sold so much that the Japan sales were rendered irrelevant then the fact remains it bombed.
SEGA send the game to die though, no strong advertising campaign, people were even joking Koikatsu, a damn porn game, got a bigger billboard in Akibahara than VC4.
Minerva>>>everyone else
Use the accurate anti-armor mortars and throw on an accuracy order, the main problem is the camera.

>the reason 3 never got localised wasn't because of 2 having poor sales that's a myth that's been perpetuated for far too long
I thought it was just the usual retarded Sega shit to be honest, like not releasing Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity outside of Japan.
Quite a lot popular Japanese games get shafted localisation-wise if they come out late in their console's lifespan.
Is the game itself fun? It is it like Final Fantasy Tactics? How strong is the political stuff in the game? Is it libtard propaganda?
People played 2 and 3?
Pretty sure Sega is just retarded. They're just now releasing PSO2.
yes, no, no and yes
Guess I'll buy it when it goes on sale.
>Stage Fright
Is there a worse trait in the game? Not counting the ones that get replaced by squad missions.
make sure to get the dlc too, it adds some life to the game. Don't expect a challenge like Tactics, thought the game manages to shine where Tactics falls short in (character development for side characters& non main-characters)
2 and 3 have better gameplay than 1 and 4, and anyone who thinks you need to grind in 2 has never played the game and is just parroting moronic shit, you no more need to grind in 2 than you need to max every materia in FF7.
Not him but I like the series so yeah.
2 was unique in having Coop too which was a interesting gimmick and a bit fun too, but I suppose most people might have a hard time having a friend (or 3) to Coop that game with.
Serious question: What the fuck is wrong with Raita?

when is sega going to remove denuvo so I can play 4?
its from the anime, learn to use saucenao dude
>either about the same or worse than 1
I think it's better. Characters are cooler in this one and the whole ship setup makes it feel like Gundam or something, feels like a space opera rather than a war story.
>20 years old
I feel like a lot of 2's systems was built on replaying shit more often then usual tho, having to reuse items to change to something a character was before is shit.
Might be attributed to trying to get people to try to use the coop feature.
Either way I thought most complaints was about the setting and about small maps but I feel like that shit is also parroted by people who never even touched it.
It's basically VC1 and most of the super broken strats still work in capture the flag missions. The nice thing is that objectives are way more varied this time so scout rushing the one enemy camp that immediately wins the mission isn't as common.
That said there's a bunch of new broken shit. Halfway through the game you get Minerva, who aside from being very fuckable is also a scout with absolutely insane stats(her accuracy is on the level of snipers) and the "command" ability which lets you take up to 2 teammates on a free ride. This makes it very easy to drag shocks and lancers much further up the map than they'd normally be able to go in one turn with their limited mobility.
And Minerva also has the "double movenemnt" potential because fuck it I guess she wasn't OP enough.
If Selvaria is
>22
then just imagine them in two years.
>which were lower that 4's due to being lower budget
Hard to say if 4s budget is bigger or smaller than 2s. 4 reuses literally all the assets from 1, uses the same engine, animations, sounds effects, they didn't even change the UI. It's basically a very big map pack. And it's not like it has a lot of expensive cutscenes, most of the story is just a VN. Whereas for the portable titles they probably had to implement a shit ton of changes to make them work and completely rework their technology.
Or after a few pregnancies.
Raz or any Shocktrooper being made a Leader is more broken than her if you utilize the fact that the Command ability refreshes that characters turns. So instead of using it to ferry characters around you use it to push someone quite tanky that hits hard 3 times then use command on them to push them even further.
It's a great story with great characters but the combat is pretty outdated. You still take a base by just killing the one soldier inside the sandbags? Really? The narrative will make it or break it for you since there's about 8 cutscenes between each mission.
Except minerva is also decently tanky and you can give her "innacurate" 7 shot high damage rifles that are suddenly accurate because of her ridiculous aim stat.
>This makes it very easy to drag shocks and lancers much further up the map than they'd normally be able to go in one turn with their limited mobility
Or you can just put them in an APC which can drive half across a map and is basically invulnerable. It's not a hard game, the challenge comes from getting the best score rather than just winning.
>You still take a base by just killing the one soldier inside the sandbags?
What the fuck else do you want though?
>the challenge comes from getting the best score
Which is still based on number of turns and feels even easier than VC1. Vc1 had some maps that required a 1-turn win for an A rank, VC4 lets you get away with being a lot more inefficient.
Still not as Tanky or Destructive especially with orders on a Shocktrooper gun.
Shits busted either way so do whatever honestly tho.
>I feel like a lot of 2's systems was built on replaying shit more often then usual tho
That's an understatement; I put in 200 hours into the game and I still couldn't finish R&D. The drop and crafting systems are absolutely fucking retarded.
He comes from Fire Emblem land of rout all the enemies.
Doing coop gave you medals to trade in for any item you wanted I think, I'm certain them wanting to push that effected the grindyness of the game.
They made all the A rank turn counts in the game much more lenient that anywhere a Scout could rush you can use a Shocktrooper instead for more safety and still get an A.
Only thing I don't really like is that the basegame literally doesn't have a single noteworthy, un-forced tie-in with the first game even though it takes place in the same timeframe
I mean what the fuck was the point about the main characters being from Gallia if the only mentions the country specifically got throughout the entire game was when it got invaded, and when Welkins won the war. They literally spend thousands of kilometers away from the country for the entire game with only a few lines addressing the characters' pasts (which may as well have been in the Federation)
Moreover there was no real point to including selvaria for all of five fentoseconds in a cutscene aside from forcing in a reason why the game is even called Valkyria Chronicles
It's just way less efficient to use 3 CP on raz, command him to refresh, then use 3 more CP when you can use 2 on Minerva to drag 1 shock and 1 scout, spam the shock to clear nearby enemies then use the fresh scout to rush the objective.
Scouts are still the kings of CP efficiency.
Oh, and anti-tank mortars being able to oneshot tanks from a huge distance is some bullshit. Not quite as broken BS as Ms. Audrey "I'm stronger than I look" oneshotting tanks with a frontal shot because ult. anti armour was very balanced but you'd think this kind of bs would be fixed in 4 games.
There's such a thing as an in-between you know. It's absurd that you can send one buffed scout through the whole map and kill one or two soldiers, and the game rewards you for that because it takes fewer turns.
I hope a further game can touch on a new war, maybe with new kinds of weapons.
New ideas for Valkyria will be needed as well, since they seem to be involved in every conflict.
A male Valkyria, siblings (brother and sister or just sisters, maybe twins?) or perhaps a half Darcsen Valkyria if that'd even be possible.
Imagine Selvaria after a few.
You can't though, not without save scamming. Your scout will usually encounter some cunt behind a corner who will shoot him dead before you get a chance to do anything.
Who was in the wrong here?
Raz apologized for that in the beach episode dlc, so I guess he was wrong all along
>can run most of the new games
> tried VC4
>smooth 20fps
wtf, i dont have this problem with any other game, is this the power of denuvo?
You totally fucking can.
In VC1 awaken potential, defense up, and resist interception make most scouts take 1 damage from interception fire.
In VC4 you still have defence up and resist interception which will make you more than tanky enough to just run past everyone aside from the super-buffed troopers in the postgame levels.
>Neige
Fuck stage freight
Ruined a lot of rounds
It's because its supposed to be technically harder to do that than say picking off every enemy as you go along.
The game's enemy Ai is quite bad at doing any sort of "advancing" without superior stats or numbers in these games. So the most dangerous thing is charging into the middle of enemy's "tower defense."
What I would wish for a future game is some sort of difficulty mode where enemies at least always have comparable stats to your own units and have potentials, maybe also let them aim for headshots.
Personally I have random fps dips here and there in VC4. Bizarrely mostly in menus. I don't know what's going on.
Me, for not being Raz.
Imperial weapons have terrible accuracy. If they aimed for heads they'd just miss most of the time.
Enemies with comparable stats and potentials could make that not an issue depending, and they could logistically calculate shooting for the head or not based on their current accuracy to you.
Same here. Game dips to literally 15 fps in some random dialogue scene with NO RENDERED BACKGROUND, just the talking heads with a white background.
Then easily runs 60 while my GPU is so underclocked it's practically idling during gameplay.
Nico is my daughter

i put everything on low and it keeps happening, wtf is causing this
I guess? But even if you get your hands on an imperial weapon which you probably will in these games you'll quickly notice that going for bodyshots is straight up better.
Their accuracy is shit but the damage is high enough that you can oneshot shocktroopers. If imps had good stats they'd just kill your guys in one round which is probably okay for a "Hard" mode.
Sure, I mean if they can one shot with body shots anyway their AI should theoretically just tell them to go for that.
Did you know that you can actually look up skirts in the model viewer if you get the angle just right? Now you do
>aside from forcing in a reason why the game is even called Valkyria Chronicles
I mean it does feature Valkyrias so I don't know what your problem is. Honestly I like that there's less of them now because in 1 they were never fun.
>buy an upgrade
>5 second dialogue occurs
>you have to buy like 20 upgrades after every mission
Who the FUCK thought that was a good idea
Same here.
The mission where you assault the capital was especially bad. I don't really get it since this game looks ancient.
this one right here
Neige is cute though.
Why was she so cute bros
Loli powered submarines is peak weebshit.
Why isn't Crymaria as popular? I like her, she's less cliched
>DLCs take place on old maps
>the one that doesn't makes you replay the new map 3 times at least
Well aint that some bullshit
Honestly I thought the story was really good until this shit happened.
What the fuck?? That was the highest point of the entire franchise.
is vc3 worth playing? does it have cute girls?
No and yes.
Does not compute
I'll do both boys and girls since I usually have a favourite of both
VC1: Nadia/Wavy
VC2: Magari/Jugin
VC3: N/A
VC4: Eileen/Curtis/Laurent
>implying anyone remembers the names of NPCs from 10 year old games
You're googling those names aren't you you bastards. I don't even remember the names of the main squad in 1.
Anti-tank grenadiers are op.
Side stories are a great feature and add a lot of personality to already charismatic "generics" in VC.
Base game missions are all pretty easy (not as easy to cheese as VC1 though). The real challenge is only found in hard skirmishes.
The tank dude and the valkyria carry the imperial cast though.
>shitty
>a sniper if you put accuracy booster on it that does 400 damage to armored target equiped on a scout that can literally run around tanks every turn and OHK them in the back
We are not playing the same game
you can kill one of the boss tanks near endgame so easily that i actually grinded his boss fight mission for xp
I enjoyed it alot
Grenadiers are busted
Raz and Klaus best characters
VC1 - Lynn
VC2 - didn't play, don't care
VC3 - didn't play, but Imca
VC4 - Kai and Aoife
If you like a girl a lot and the series, you'll remember her name.
Stahlschrott never asked for this.
Not saying they don't. All I am saying is X-0 felt largely like an after thought outside of Crymaria.
Belgar was the big bad of the series, and directly responsible for so much suffering. Yet hes just reduced to being a faggot for some science dude we never met.
He is a super mad scientist though, of course he going to masturbate over the guy who discover "no nuclear" phisics in VC world
>Belgar was the big bad of the series
Since when? The portable games? VC4 is the first I've heard of him. Unless he was in the first game's obscure in-game glossary entries which I don't remember.
The VC1 squad DLC mission is so badly handled from a story perspective.
>deep in enemy territory in the far north
>OK guys we have to take an extremely long train ride allllllllllllllllllllll the way over to the VC1 squad's front
>none of the characters have any of their development from VC1 due to timeline placement of VC4
>well that was a great co-op training mission, we really learned a lot. okay, back to our mission, see you
>yeah we have our own war to fight too, bye!
>five seconds later at HQ
>hey guys here's our new squadmates, the entirety of Squad 7
>Alicia and Welkin are now somehow fighting a war on Two Fronts at once
i know that putting "non-canon" characters in your squad has always been a thing but it's so jarring just cuz of the massssive distance between squad 7's HQ and VC4's setting
i just can't help but think there must have been a better way to handle it
Post yfw.
Freesia still makes my dick hard all these years later.
Also people stil remember and glorify a dude from Star wars that literally had 5 lines in the entire trilogy.
Kind of felt flat shoving it down my throat in the last mission.
Sorry. I meant more in regards aside from Forester, hes the only Imperial scientist so far directly involved with the creation of Valkyria. This is all related to VC4's plot which like I already said did very little with his character.
Weirdly enough they seemed to want to make him the Wernher von Braun of the universe. Not related but did anyone ever translate these comics from the twitter?
Darth Maul? Or Boba Fett?
Boba fett has exactly 5 lines. Does Darth Maul even get 5? He probably has even less and people still remember him just from his design alone.
>Imperial scientist so far directly involved with the creation of Valkyria
That kinda contradicts the first game, doesn't it? I thought before Maximilian awakened Selvaria everyone thought Valkyrias were just a myth. At least in Europa.
As for Belgar's character, I'm with .
He's an evil mad scientists and I never really expected much development from his character.
>for some science dude
It's almost as if the theme of the game is
>duuuude it doesn't matter who wins as long as science faggots keep inventing nukes
The science dude fits in perfectly, he's the villain this story requires.
Well both are not just iconic in design but they have pretty cool scenes, at least for their time. Darth Maul more so since he goes full kung fu. People nowadays naturally shit on it citing how it's too flashy or not adhering to the original trilogy but they all seem to forget that Star Wars was literally a white man's Wuxia story and even The Force is literally just Lucas's take on Cultivation.
And Freesia makes my pepee very big. It's not really a difficult concept to understand.
the pacing of the story in VC4 is really bad. it's just, badly written in general (or badly localized??). There are some very funny lines and occasionally characters say stuff so bluntly honest it's refreshing, but a lot of it is just... "haha what the fuck?" tier
>there are not one, but TWO spies in your unit (Akira AND Kai)
>characters CONSTANTLY disregarding orders and running off on their own
>several troop loyalty missions involve trying to go AWOL... in the frozen north
>nobody noticed that Kai suddenly changed genders during training, even with her GIGANTIC BUBBLE BUTT sticking out
Yeah I don't get what that user was having trouble with. VC has a good range of character designs though I guess they tend to cause autists to sperg out.
With Lily Ashley.
And now you know why The Federation was getting whooped by The Empire.
user did you come here from xcom background or something? Because you're complaining about some basic animu shit. Of course animu story is animu, that's neither good nor bad, that's just what it is. I prefer for Kai to have a giant butt even if it's not realistic. I like that the ship runs on loli juice. That's how it should be.
i just want to play the damn game
why th is pirating so fucking slow
if anything it makes you wonder how fucking incompetent the empire is to keep losing to mutinous retards who never seem to have any plan except "fling ourselves blindly into oncoming fire and survive through sheer force of will"
The thing that stuck me the biggest is how nobody in the unit gave a shit about NUKING THE WHOLE CAPITAL.
They were like "FUCK YEAH MASS MURDER!"
What are you on about? It was cracked months ago
I thought artificial valkyria became a thing in 2 or 3? Though I only played 3 so I might be wrong.
Aside from the fact he does nothing? My whole point earlier was X-0 feels tacked on to Klaus's story.
no thats not what i mean, the unpacking is taking ages right now
I like how they act indignant when a dude who sold tank part to the ENEMY ARMY THAT WILL KILL HIS COMRADES USING THESE TANK PARTS is hanged for treason. I mean isn't that common sense
at that point they had no options i guess, it was "do the most ridiculous thing possible" or just crash into the capital, get captured and executed
2 is a sequel though. And I guess you're right, artificial valkyrias are also a thing. A thing in VC1 even. But again, it's all Maximilian. I guess he might have had a certain mad scientist's support form behind the scenes after all. It's not like a fucking arrogant royal boy can come up with this kind of technology by himself.
I had to buy it since literally no pirated copy of the game actually includes the japanese text, fucking EOPs and incompetent russian shitters
>he does nothing
He sank a bunch of super powered valkyria ships, he definitely did things.
Actually I feel thats half the reason they being happy about the idea of nuking the Capital
>A bloo bloo, imperials are so bad killing civilians
>GONNA NUKE THE CAPITAL! FUCK CIVILIANS WOOOOOOOOO
Yeah it's kinda funny how they seemed to care more about reactor-chan than the millions of people in the imperial capital.
the worst part of how they gloss over kai replacing the original dude is their plan to shoot troops and have her fire at them at the same time to trick the instructor on her skill. how does that even begin to make the slightest bit of sense
literally cheating repeatedly to get someone unqualified into your important military squad and just being lucky enough that she 'got good' at sniping as they went
I also like how after they invade an imperial city they have a tank battle over bread and bacon in the historic city centre. Right after complaining that the civvies don't treat them very well in the city. Yeah I wonder why
and you get very familiar with how stupid that mission is since it's a prime grinding mission
No, the "joke" was that she was always very good at sniping but in that mission her scope was badly adjusted and as soon as that was corrected she started hitting insane shots.
This was apparently because she learned to snipe with unscoped rifles so she had no idea how to properly adjust her scope.
I mean that's just power of friendship stuff. They believed that Kai made the right choice and went along with his plan. That's just animu
It's not like they had a choice. Kai just vanished and sent a replacement one day. They just had to make it work somehow.
Is even more retarded when she goes "Oh the sights werent calibrated correctly and I am actually super sniper"
Like, wont you notice that BEFORE?
What do people grind for? I felt overpowered for the entire game. What do you get after grinding?
user my point was everyone in the VC world is stupid. Did you not pick that up in VC1 when Welkins manages to outsmart everyone through very simple means?
It's like how in the One Piece world it's basically a given that everyone is cartoony and acts like came out of a Saturday morning cartoon. It's not meant to be realistic, it's meant to be consistent within the world that they are in.
In VC, you have this very anime and very cartoony aesthetic art style called CANVAS, and even the most gritty looking tank has a glow in the dark backpack and there's a flying pig following the main cast. You're not supposed to expect the characters to be as smart as real humans, just like you wouldn't expect Rita Repulsa would be anything but a bumbling witch as she jobs to the Power Rangers every week.
You can argue it's not good writing all you want, but it was never that kind of story to begin with. VC is a lighthearted anime take on trench warfare, and anyone who tells you otherwise is full of shit. Yeah there are some moments like named characters dying and such, but if you compare their melodrama to say, an actual war story that doesn't paint everything with rainbows and sunshine, then it's no longer all that. After all, in a real war story, chances are a babe like Selvaria who gets captured would be raped before she gets killed, and everyone who dies in the battlefield would likely not have a whole body but be splattered into chunks.
You have to see where the consistency is, not just go "oh this isn't how I'd do it" cause that don't matter. That's just like you saying "If I were the Joker, I'd have done such and such and would have defeated The Justice League by now". Yeah no, it doesn't work like that.
You can only make show a character to be as smart as you are, so naturally any good writer would limit their characters to be dumber than they are because otherwise it gets really tiresome to write a bunch of characters just as smart as you, the writer.
She was sniping without a scope back in militia, and didn't even know about them apparently. Maybe they weren't invented yet? lol
user it's just a silly joke mission don't be so anal. Maybe she wanted them to run around like idiots so she didn't say anything, there's your headcanon
grinding easy 1 Turn missions just ensures you can afford new Orders as they become available, and the less often your troops die, the less often you have to save/reload during every mission
Post-game upgrades are VERY expensive and you'll probably have to grind for them.
You sure wrote a whole lot to say "suspension of disbelief".
>no fanart
>no artbook art
i tried buying it but it then doesnt work on my machine, everything is falling apart right now and i dont know why, fuck steam and fuck denuvo AND FUCK THESE SHITTY CRACKERS FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
So is the dog NOT playable at all? After all that talk about it being a K9 member of the squad? That would've been a pretty nice addition to the series.
That wasn't him personally though. Hes just off screen fucking ragnite crystals or something.
If anything the first one Nikola and Chiara pushing Crymaria over the edge. While the second is Forseti's plan, So I guess if you want to give to Belgar credit for those fair enough.
He is the medic
he has RNG chance of replacing the medic
Does he transform into Karen
The mock squad battle? How's it an easy grinding mission? IIRC you need to capture multiple camps, and enemies are everywhere. There are much easier missions and skirmishes to grind.
Zoomers don't even know what that means anymore, and worse yet they won't even look it up. They'll just gloss over it and argue back.
lol what? the mission with minerva? you can run up along one side on the right, get the base, and then run through the middle base, past minerva and to the flag
I mean he assembled the whole squad and created some of its members, so I'd say credit is due
i'm sad that they never did anything like Vyse/Aika again.
>that one guy who is a literal furfag
They try to cover it up in localisation but he's a literal furfag isn't he
>That wasn't him personally though.
He INVENTED all that shit X-0 uses.
It's like saying about dropping nukes "but it wasn't them who split the atoms personally".
>4 entries later the first one is still the best
Why are those yellow niggers always like this?
Literally Majima clone
4 is better than 1 in every way. Better missions, more shit you can use, looks better, in my opinion better characters and better story. Only people who think 1 has a better story are lorefags who wanted 4 to focus more on worldbuilding.
Are you really shaming someone for putting effort into their post?
anime specials
Post pics of the twin crazy sluts I need to get my dick hard
No, I'm just saying he could've saved the time he spent typing out the entire post.
Which game has better semen demons (on your team preferably), VC1 or VC4?
Yes.
4 for me. Kai's butt and Minerva's tiddies can't be beaten.
>only 1 cgset
>0 doujins
>0 fanart
Meanwhile pic related made the internet explode.
But Selvaria has bigger tits than Minerva when you compare game models.
4, though 1'sroster is nothing to scoff at.
>Selvaria
Compare her to Crymaria then
Around the same size, bigger than Minerva but it's hard to tell comparing with Selvaria since their clothes are different so their breast shape is also different.
1
>game uses a 10 year old engine
>still is one of the best looking JRPGs this decade
Impressive
>Selvaria
>0 doujins
>0 fanart
>my hilariously skimpy stereotypical anime art is better.
Ahh, so this is what it means to be a FGONigger.
So is there any chance that VC is still alive at this point? Or is this it
Honestly the giant tank wasn't so bad, it was Selvaria who fucked my shit. Peak haha get fucked was chapter 14, goddamn those respawning southeast troops.
It has some solid gameplay improvements and dials back on the mid-mission fuckery from 1 (though it's still plenty there), whether the story/characters are as good is highly debatable.
Why are you chimping out at me? I'm probably the biggest fan of that Selvaria costume in this thread. I'm just not retarded like you and get triggered when facts are stated. You can like something without making excuses or trying to act like your own shit taste is "objectively" superior to other people you know?
It's over. Sega tried an experimental title and it flopped. Sega then tried to do something more in-tune with the first game and that flopped too. I'd love to see a VC3 remake, but that will never happen now.
Art style isn't a meme
>whether the story/characters are as good is highly debatable.
Come on now, we call all agree that the characters are at least as good.
>game uses a 10 year old engine
The duct tape helps.
You're acting surprised that a kumbrain game produced a ton of fanart for a skimpy .jpg while a normal jrpg-type game with a skimpy costume produced less. Especially since Selvaria is over a decade old.
It's not like Sega know what the fuck to do with VC other than just remake the same game with new maps over and over again. Maybe it's time for it to die
>meme
what the fuck do you mean?
>You're acting surprised that a kumbrain game produced a ton of fanart
No, and fuck off back to twitter.
>while a normal jrpg-type game with a skimpy costume produced less.
No, outside of Lime you won't even find any decent artist drawing that costume, that's what I'm surprised about. It's not about less, it's that there's virtually none despite the similarity between the two. The sex appeal factor should be similar when thought about logically, and Nightingale was most definitely not that popular before that picture came out, at the very least she was less popular than Selvaria.
>Especially since Selvaria is over a decade old.
And this means something?
>Maybe it's time for it to die
please no... they just need to get a little bit creative.. there is no other series like it
goddamn ultra qt sniper grill, oh my heart
more pics of twins please
u realize that every swimsuit costume besides riley has more fanart than selvaria right
Great game, hope you like it.
VC3
4 is a runner up
its almsot like VC1 but with minor improvements,but since VC1 is good that means this is good as well
Your hypocrisy is glowing so bright even the CIA would be envious.
>You're really not helping the idea
You are so fucking clueless with your retarded argument. Do you even realize Selvaria's old swimsuit still gets fan art and even merchandise to this day while her VC4 swimsuit gets none?
>It means her fanbase is much smaller
Did you not see me post Tifa?
Why do I get the feeling that for all your denial of being a twitterfag you act exactly like they do, where you don't actually read what I post, you don't comprehend it in your brain, you just gloss over and then repeat some NPC lines because you're not actually open to discussion but you just want to win an argument. You clearly show a case of not knowing the information I present to you beforehand, and you clearly make very immature goalpost moving quips that rely on emotion instead of rationality.
Tell me, how are you not a twitterfag?
Does she ever get more than two paragraphs entry in Personal tab? She's Corporal already and her bio contains half of the page.
The same with this Darcsen guy that idolizes Raz (forgot his name) - half a page and that's it.
It triggers my autism, since these two are the only ones without full characteristics.
Randos have their bio locked behind their rank. Gonna promote her. i.e.: use her in battle
VC4 artbook when
RAITA = God
damn
I love the series. The gameplay is a unique mashup of turn based stragety and 3rd person shooter which is basically only occupied by this series.
where's the vc3 retranslation
never
Squad profiles are locked behind rank (I can't remember what the highest rank a squad member can get but it's when you can assign them to a leader I think), as well squad story (requires you to recruit all 3 characters for the story) and beating the game.
unfortunate
surprised a VC thread lived that long
today is a good day
