In VC4 Shocktroopers are actually better for rushing A rank due how lenient the rankings are. Its way less punishing to fuck up rushing and beyond enough AP with things like the APC and direct command (so you refresh their AP)

I lost interest when you succeed in your mission to nuke the enemy and some bullshit declaration of peace happens seconds before your press the button and the whole team pusses out. Then some other random bullshit starts happening fucking the entire story in the ass.

I do think it's a bit of a hidden gem. Fixes most of the problems I had with VC1, namely making vehicles and slow classes actually worth using, and not immediately losing if an enemy lancerCHAD lands a hit on your tank waifu's fat ass from the other side of the map through a tiny gap in the geometry with 0.5% hit chance. The main gripe is playing VC1 after this feels like ass. The thing I liked the most was being able to promote a few of your favorite non-story squadmates and all of them having small side stories of their own. Something to make you actually care about them and getting a nice boost as a reward too.

I found it kinda goes to shit in the late game where your best strategy is to savescum because yolo'ing into danger is the only way you'll stay ahead of the reinforcement spam and you're on such strict time limits against large numbers of enemies you basically have to take out one enemy per turn or you're falling behind. So any time you get RNG'd out of a kill, you might want to reload. Especially if you accidentally hit a story trigger and you went from "my troops are scattered, but I'm near victory" to "too bad, boss tank just spawned in the middle of your squishy troops that will never survive the interception fire, and your tank is dead on the next round." Reload, this time don't push forward on this turn now you know.
Also they seem to have given up on the testing for the boss enemies. The tank with the radiator on the top that I forget then name of, Vulkan? Well, the hitbox for that is either miniscule or it's blocked by an invisible collision box because it seems obvious they intended it to be an anti-armor grenadier target, but they can basically NEVER hit it. And even if a lancer bullseye's it it doesn't count unless they are at a certain height level. Same thing for the final boss tank. Those radiators are damn near impossible to hit from point blank with a lancer. It's like they extended the railing collision too high and so you have to aim at a 4x4 pixel square.
And don't get me started on the 99.9% evasion, 359.9ยฐ to the horizon interception lolis. Using 10 moves to land a single hit on them does not make me want to play it legit. And special mention for the city mission where the enemy moves first, takes out both tanks and half your infantry before you get a turn and there's nothing you can do about it. IF YOU MEAN THAT, WRITE IT INTO THE STORY, otherwise I'll assume you just didn't think it through and shipped it regardless.

That was actually a rare moment of realistic writing. The point of nukes isn't to use them, it's to force the enemy to come to the negotiating table. Until the ship with the death bomb gets to the capital, the Empire can still think they've got a chance to win. Once it's there, it's over. they either negotiate or lose their capital city. Turning the capital into a radioactive ruin does no one any favors. The fact that the "good guys" were all "death to the imperials!" while being the goodest most goody two shoes soldiers the rest of the time was a bit shonky in the writing. I get Minerva cracking, she was obviously hanging by a thread since the rout, but the rest being so gung-ho about genocide just because it was their mission (that they knew nothing of until the last minute) was iffy.

When you get rare moments of clustered enemies they are way overpowered. normally you can only kill 1 enemy per turn, but they can get 2 or 3 at once, and mostly ignoring cover.
What you'll grow to hate is the enemy grenadiers who are always hiding in the hardest to reach spots and have insane accuracy on interception fire. Whereas your grenadiers can't hit a shock trooper running in a straight line. Doing the hard mode skirmishes devolves to
1) sacrific as many troops as you like to find out where the grenadiers are
2) reload and target them first
Failing to do so means certain death.

Won't happen; 4 sold hilariously bad even for the franchise. This licence shot itself in the head always treading the exact same war just so that they can shove Selvaria in once again and Sega completely mishandling it.

>First VC does pretty bad in japan but very good in the west (one of the rare jrpgs of the early PS3 that was a million seller) with people liking the cast and villains
>Make an anime and time it to release around the same time as VC2 on PSP, a platform that did bad in the west
>Sells way worse than VC1 since the sales in Japan did barely better while the western ones tanked
>Sega deduces that it sold bad because people wanted more Selvaria and the same setting as 1
>Make VC3 once again on PSP with the same setting as VC1 (that most japs didn't play), don't even bother to release it in the west
>Even worse sales, the franchise is put in the freezer
>2 years later Sega of Europe begs japan to let them port the first game to PC
>They do, game is a massive success on Steam, interest of Sega in the franchise is rekindled
>Proceed to release one of the most terrible JRPG of the decade by giving it the Valkyria moniker despite having little to do with it and making Steam newcomers think that VC1 was a fluke and it's a garbage franchise
>Sega didn't get the memo that they ruined the franchise reputation with that garbage and decides to make a VC4 which ONCE AGAIN, happens in the same time frame and war as VC1 & 3 so you already know the biggest plot points of it if you're interested in the franchise, so newcomers think it's gonna be shit because of Valkyria Revolution and fans of the franchise have enough of getting the same war for the 3rd time

Looking up gameplay, it looks like one of those social base building games like clash of clans but the card system does seem to resemble a gacha.
You buy booster packs and get copies of cards to upgrade other cards with many of them having different rarities and Selvaria unsurprisingly being one of the rare ones.

It was an exceptionally bad idea since VC was such a niche thing to begin with.
For example, Final Fantasy having a tactics spin-off didn't do any harm since there's so many similar RPGs out there already.
But VC was one of the few anime WW2 works out there and no other game has gameplay like it either.
Them turning it into a subpar JRPG just felt like an insult to the fans, unlike VC2&3 which at least retained some of what makes it good on top of being legitimate attempts at sequels in spite of being made on the PSP.

Thereโ€™s no Japan analogue in these games (in fact the Not-WWIIโ„ข setting is intriguing because the setup actually seems more similar to โ€œCold War gone hotโ€ with 1940s tech and the NATO side not actually having the USA), besides just one character. Instead the Jap nuke trauma manifests itself in trying to make you feel sorry for the Nazi faction.

And you touch on something Iโ€™ve actually been thinking about with the appeal problems of this series. The market (at least from what I can tell online) for a WWII game with anime girls seems to be mainly made up of weird nerds (like me), and these people tend to ideologically align more towards the political extremes like Natsocs and Commies. VC however, just like all the WWII games of the time, focuses on Western Allies instead. Nobody actually gives a fuck about the Western Allies besides boomers, they were the lamest faction of the war, and they are especially unpopular in the gameโ€™s home region of Japan. But you canโ€™t actually go full Naziwank because then you would have media controversy. A real damned if you do damned if you donโ€™t moment.

Thatโ€™s who I was referring to. In this game the Pacific theater doesnโ€™t exist, and the USโ€™s involvement in the war mirrors its IRL pre-1941 self, ie ideological alignment, weapons and economic aid, private citizens enlisting for the Federation on their own initiative etc. I guess the Pacific showdown between this gameโ€™s Japan and USA was meant to be VC5, but we all know how that turned out.

Imagine being sega
Gup is popular, girls frontline exists, people like turn based games, people love anime girls and unique characters in games, tacticool or war themed anime girls shit isn't something strange and it never was
Persona and fire emblem exist

Make a tactics war themed game where characters go through rough shit but manage to forge a bond, relationships, social circles
Every character has a unique trait or two meaning you need to think about them as people
Social systems and romance is popular
Gacha games sell anime girls like it's nothing and these fucks couldn't think of putting a social/romance system in the game?
Same goes for the Sakura wars reboot thing, instead of focusing on character building and character socials and with a romance system they made a shitty action game wannabe with dating sim elements

Fix the scoring or remove it entirely
No more turn based speed scores but take into account units killed, objectives completed, sode objectives on maps, damage taken and dealth, units lost with the turn count pretty much unimportant for the scoring system

I mean, you're not wrongโ€”but "moves the timeline forward" feels pretty irrelevant when the game itself is a Saturday morning anime set in the most bootleg version of a military academy imaginable. VC2 tonally feels like a weird fever dream after the OG, even if it technically follows it chronologically. You go from trench warfare and character death to punk-ass kids driving tanks to homeroom. Don't get me wrong, I still played the hell out of it on my PSP, but let's not pretend timeline placement saves it from being the black sheep.

I got this game when I got my switch because I wanted my games and it was really cheap for some reason.
I actually enjoyed it a lot. Unfortunately I'm too retarded and get too anxious when playing strategy games once the maps and stakes get larger.
As soon as it stopped being small-scale maps with a few units and comfy squad gameplay with cute girls and got to bigger 30+ minute maps where mistakes were very costly I started getting filtered. I never ended up beating it.
