Valkyria Chronicles
I just noticed that Lindz had the game in the "Now Playing" section of their signature, and wondered if anyone else had a take on the game.
I personally haven't gotten very far in the campaign yet, and after getting stuck on a level, it's been shelved for a little while. But besides my frustration with that -one- level, I'm enjoying it so far. The animation style is perfect, and for the first time in a while, I'm actually enjoying the story along with the game. The only gripe I have with the battle system is that the computer controlled enemies -always- know whether or not they're in range of your teams' gunfire. Very rarely do I get those nice little free shots at enemy players because as soon as they move into range, they end their turn before my people can aim at them. Meanwhile, they get -tons- of little crock shots off as I'm running around trying to position myself correctly. Finally, it's a very small feature, but it makes me smile, and gives me hope. Two (or possibly all three, I'm not sure.) Skies of Arcadia characters are in the game and ready to be recruited! It's random whether or not you can recruit them after each chapter, but from what I've read everyone eventually has a chance to have them on their squad. I got lucky and picked them up the very first chapter I was able to recruit members. : ) I hope Sega isn't just teasing me, because I have been waiting for a Skies of Arcadia sequel for a loooong time. It's overdue! |

Well even though I still didn't buy the full game (waiting for the price to drop to at least $35 >>) I think it looks really nice and I really like the gameplay from the demo.

Ya I made it to Chapter 11 early into december but had to basically drop the game since I got really busy in other areas. Now that I've come back to it, it feels even harder then before! But I still love and will still luck/faq my way through to the end (I'm terrible at "strategy"). The game is just reeeeaallllyyy fun and lovable. I hope the anime version starting this spring is good but I have my doubts on that!
