Like, I think it's still a fun game with a ton of content and some neat characters (a couple cameo in VC3 and I really enjoyed them there). Definitely not as strong as 1 or 3, but still worthwhile.Off Topic, but is VC2 good? the base Price is dirt cheap on the psn store
It's just not the most exciting trailer imo. Which isn't a big deal, they've shown enough rad stuff already. March is a bunch of huge releases for me... Wish the special edition for this wasn't so lackluster - would have picked it up in a heartbeat otherwise.Surprised this hasn't spread around as much as the DLC trailers. Hope the hype isn't drying up while people wait for subbed(/dubbed) trailers..
There's probably a good chance it releases in the West before E3? Late May/early June isn't a stretch since they were apparently already doing English VO when it was revealed. Depends on if they want to sync to the Switch release outside of Japan, which would push it back.I need her in my squad, NOW.
I'd be willing to double dip on this game. I own Valkyria Chronicles on PS4 and PC. I'd go PS4 x Switch if it's that good again. I have high hopes. Here's hoping we get more news at E3

yeah it's also likely, maybe a May release date? Anyways, looks to me like the kind of game Sony would completely miss the point of, and put it on their stupid preshow that no one watches but ends up being the actual part where they announce cool stuff, much like last year. I'm thinking it's a summer game, August or so.
You wish Sony would even mention it. At best it would be a blog post. PSX was great, because they give more niche games some spotlight on the big stage, but they scaled down heavily last year and used that dumb talkshow format instead.
the talk show was only because of Paris Games Week, wasn't it? Not that I didn't hate it but I can see why they did that
I'm glad they released a trailer but a few things:
Don't get worried about hype, because Valkyria threads on GAF (and now ERA) were almost always low post count. In the end the fanbase is small for forums like these. The only exceptions to this rule are platform wars or blaming Sega for something.
- Almost everything in this trailer they already showed before in clips or gameplay premieres so there's not much new to talk about. However it's a great refresher for someone who hasn't looked at information until now.
- This game is going to have a war journal for recording the story, and judging by the text, the writer will be someone on your squad. For comparison, VC1 used a journalist's memoir, VC2 used nothing, and VC3 used old film reel footage.
- Why are they still using the VC1 soundtrack? It's about two months until release and we aren't going to hear any of the new music? In the gameplay premiere they also reused VC1 music, so now I'm starting to get worried.
I would call it a "prologue trailer", personally.
There're been trailers in the past that use "stock" music to create a certain emotion and evoke feelings, but the actual thing is different.
Raita being back is pretty bad.Two out of three ain't bad from the original with Sakimoto and Raita coming back.
But Juju is probably way above videogames at this point now.
