    What killed the fun for me where the many invisible walls and the very oldschool level design in general. Why can't soldier jump over a 2 foot fence or even a tank not pass it. Hey but try yourself, there is a free demo available!

    I loved Valkyria Chronicles. One of my favourite games ever and I love SRPG's, one of my favourite genres. But what the hell were they thinking?

    So it starts with a character, he might be called Raz, or something similar. He is an annoying little **** with pathetic voice acting and even worse dialogue. I actually checked to see if my girlfriend was watching me play as I felt embarrassed.    I loved Valkyria Chronicles. One of my favourite games ever and I love SRPG's, one of my favourite genres.

    So it starts with a character, he might be called Raz, or something similar. He is an annoying little **** with pathetic voice acting and even worse dialogue. I actually checked to see if my girlfriend was watching me play as I felt embarrassed. I mean, I can play Atelier with cartoon tiddies swinging all over the place and be far less embarrassed.

    I was cringing and reading as fast as I could to escape listening to the audio. If I can't kill this guy off very fast, then I will not be playing this game.

    Who thought a character like that is a good idea? Who thinks a character like that would be a military fighter? If the guy was real, he would be a bullying victim, not front line in the army. What a **** of a character. What dick head game content manager allowed that character?

    If I can kill this guy before my soul is destroyed, then I will come back and alter my review.    … Expand

    It is more of the same for Valkyria Chronicles 4 - and that's no bad thing. Going back to what SEGA did best with this series following the awful Revolution was really all that was necessary, even if it might feel too familiar if coming off of playing the first game recently. Comic book visuals, a story based on World War II, appealing anime-like characters, a mix of overhead and third-person strategic and real-time gameplay - there are so many crazy ideas melded together, and yet it all comes off so well. There still isn't a series much like it.

    Not expecting to like Valkyria Chronicles 4, I came away loving it. The turned-based tactical gameplay is constantly engaging, and the water colour visuals look a real treat.

    Valkyria Chronicles 4, ten years after the release, still a marvelous strategy / RPG game. It has a rich gameplay, a great scenario, an amazing amount content, and a brilliant OST.
