What did you guys think about Valkyria Chronicles? I just started playing this game and man, the gameplay is fun! It's like casual version of Jagged Alliance with anime characters. Even one of the battle themes starts with few notes that reminds me with one of JA2:s battle themes. The tactical aspect is engaging and not as unforgiving as the old classics, and you get to also enjoy choosing your own setup of soldiers.
Though the cutscenes, the plot, the main characters. It's really horrible, full of lighthearted anime cliches in a setting that contradicts them completely. Absolutely tone deaf. I haven't finished it yet, but I've heard there's a beach episode in it. Not sure if that's true, but honestly I'm not even surprised what I've seen in the first few chapters. I started to skip all cutscenes further I got into the game. It reminded me of Escaflowne, anime which I could predict pretty much everything 5min prior because it was so predictable.
Anyway, planning to finish it. Enjoying the combat system and my soldiers.

You're late, very late. See if you can play it at 120FPS.
>>341143856
Launcher says it's capped to 30fps.I don't know, it's more cinematic that way?
>>341144092
Damn. They don't even have the best shocktrooper girl in it.
I pirated it.And liked it so much I've bought it the moment I finished the story
>>341145028
>literally falling for the cinematic meme
Please tell me you were joking and aren't actually that stupid
>>341145028
>Launcher says it's capped to 30fps.I don't know, it's more cinematic that way?
No it doesn't.
>>341145549
fixed
Just disappointed you couldn't have Selvaria join you.
>>341145549
A meme reply, however the launcher did say it would be capped at 30fps. Not sure what to do with that.
>>341145784
You can unlock a Selvaria unit in VC3.
>>341145784
>mfw playing the DLC
Selvaria did nothing wrong.You killed Johann in the main campaign
Are the other Valkyria games ever going to come to PC? I don't want to get too invested if they aren't.

HOW THE FUCK DO YOU BEAT 15B
THIS SILVER HAIRED BITCH IS TOO OP
REEEEEEE
>>341147019
Probably not, but ppsspp runs them pretty well.
>>341146846
Selvaria did something wrong: falling in love, as that loce made her stupid as fuck, she did everything what the Prince nigga told her, including blowing up herself
>>341147020
I assume you mean the giant tank level. Destroy the radiators on the right side and back of the tank first so the boss ends up shielding you against Selvaria's attacks while you work on the left side.
>>341147361
Nah, I'm talking about the level where you attack the fort after the train blows up the gates. She's standing above me just hammering my guys. Not sure what to do
>>341147184
Can you really fault her for being used like that and following orders though?
>>341147598
Use the main tank and smoke her so she can't see and attack you and either do the level the way it was intended and raid up the ramps or cheese it and use a sniper and snipe her through the smoke for an easy win.
>>341147805
>cheese it and use a sniper and snipe her through the smoke for an easy win.
Good call. Thanks man

Me too, anon.

Cheese it dude. Set your soldiers up before raising the flag

I loved it already on PS3 years ago.
Been thinking of getting the PC port for dat 1080p & AA.
Shame that the sequels were PSP trash.
VC2 especially is super animu-uguu crap to the max, with tinier maps and shit.
VC3 I've played a bit with PPSSPP, and it seems much better.
>>341149243
>for dat 1080p
Just get the PS4 version if you're going to be a pleb. The PC port is for 4k 120fps and higher + mods.
>>341149243
>1080p
The game is so easy to run I've played it downscaled from 4k without any issues.
>>341143491
A bit too casual. As in real, smart tactical moves don't matter, character movement is lacking (can't change stance, can't climb over obstacles, etc.) and maps tend to be very linear and funnel you through a specific path.
I don't hate it, but the gameplay has the depth of a puddle.
>>341143491
Its a good concept ruined by the ranking system requiring you to aliciafast every map to the flagpole for A/S rank w/e it is. Also makes every other unit trivial.
Dudes in heavy ceramic and alloy plate with speartip heat charges /rpgs useless.
>snipers useless
>fucking HEAVY MBT useless
>one idiot girl with a carbine running around never shooting anyone wins the war single handedly.
>>341145028
You fucked up, check this out.
Played the sequels on PSP and just got it for my PS3 as well. Raging a fuckton with the damn Lancers and Snipers. Fucking shitty aiming!
Also, look at this fuckingCUTE PIG! LOOK AT IT!
>>341150348
You mean this?
Apart from the already mentioned scout rush I also found the story to be lacking.
Why, Faldio. Why.
>>341145028
If you're talking about the oc version, DON'T set the fps to >30.
For some retarded reason the game has hardcided idiocy linking fps to enemy reaction shooting.
>one guy with a rifle becomes a hvy. Machine gunner on 60 fps
HIT THE BEACH, MARINES
>>341151198
They already fixed that in a patch.
Riela a best.
>>341150718
Yep. That is the optimum playstyke for every fucking mission. Deploy scouts and use all your cp to power run alicia to the goal area.
>>341151595
agreed
>>341150348
Might I add that story centric characters and leader units with their CP bonuses take up almost all your squad space in every mission, so you ever have room for only a handful of the rank&file soldiers, who are actually a lot more interesting than the main cast.
>>341151803
Have another Riela, friend.
>>341151808
And then there's that. And don't forget your available roster us tandomised at the start if every game so you may NEVER see some characters and WILL never see some team combos you actually want.
>canon immigrants vyse et al never show up altogether in the same playthrough.
>>341151808
>who are actually a lot more interesting than the main cast
That's actually one of the great points about the game in my eyes. It's able to build clear personality for the extras without anything more than 3 or so paragraphs of backstory and a handful of in game dialog to the point where you can actually care about these people who would otherwise be throwaway characters.
>>341143491
On Jaegar's chapter and haven't attempted it yet because Welkin's report is kicking my ass and I want it out of the way first.Any tips for these two?
>>341152193
Is random*
Fucking phone autocorrecting words to nonsense.
>>341152193
>you may NEVER see some characters
They ones that you don't have will join as you progress the story outside of the ones that require special unlock requirements like Karl's waifu.
>>341152343
Jaegars chapter?
Smoke the camp in the middle, make Alicia take it. Summon Lancers with extra tank damage, like the fag
Marina waifu fags uniteWendy and Jane fags also welcome

What did she mean by this?
>>341156153
it's gutter talk known to sluts
>>341154537
Jane and Marina would be quite a cute Yuri couple...and imagine the erotic war crimes they could commit.
God, I love Alicia.
Why can't she be mine? Why, God? ;_;
Alicia is so beautiful and perfect and I would never compare to her, so maybe it's better she has the nature autist...
I love you, Alicia...
>>341156282
I want to bury my face in her hot delicious buns.

>>341147793
Yes, she knew he only used her, but she was so in love that she didn't care.
>>341157169
Alicia, please... ;_;
I love you...
Iwant to brush her luxurious hair and smell it in the morning as we sit and drink coffee or tea and eat a small but tasty breakfast...
I want to hold her at night and feel her soft warmth on my naked chest as we cuddle on the couch reading...
>>341157754
Different artist. We all know she's stacked.
>>341157948
Fuck, admit I confused that Reila for Alicia, the actual flat chest Valkirie and I was hoping not one replied me before I could delete it.

Kind of. Though beach episode is least of the problems when everyone in-game are absolutely ignoring the fact they kill people.
