Its ridiculous that there are so few Valkyria and Valkyria like games outthere. I love the combat, its basically Wizardy 8 turn based combat. Heavily underrated combat system, and both series are also heavily underrated to my dismay...

I really do hope they will make a remaster version of this together with Valkyria 2 on PC..

Honestly. I love this game so much. Especially the ending. Sooo freaking good.

Fun fact: the spanish fan translation is, surprisingly, more complete in terms of content, despite its flaws. I really love this game, it's shame that we didn't have it officially.

I remember playing this back in the day and it was the first time I really got invested in characters in a video game. Now, I'm starting my playthrough of VC 4 and just seeing the graphics made me nostalgic enough to sift through a few videos of VC 3 and, man, was it such a good game.

What surprised me, our enthusiasts even translated the game into Russian) Now I'm playing, the game is just gorgeous

saw this video and i subscribed to this channel :3 i loved VC3 really it's a nice game.

Not a fan of remakes and remasters, but I'd love to see this game remade on modern systems. I love this game and the series.

I still have my PSP and this game up to this day.

I hope we get this one day

This game franchise it's a blend of several series alike Metal Gear Solid, Phantasy Star Portable, Shining Hearts, Monster Hunter, Final Fantasy Tactics, Deadly Dozen, Front Mission, Dynasty Warriors... So far sitting up everyones ideas mixing the Real-world historical reference's WWII with one "touch" Japanese otaku subculture! VERY GOOD SEGA. I SIMPLY LOVE THEIR INSPIRATION AND INNOVATION INTO YOUR GAMES... I'M AWAITS AND READY A DEVELOPED NEW GENERATION CONSOLE CAME FOR US. THANKS! (Greetings from Brazil).

I love this game easily the best VC game :)

Yo! Where did that acoustic remix come from?! THAT JOINT IS 🔥🔥🔥!!!

great review I played 344 hours in vc2 on the ps vita, I bought it for 19 dollars on ps store it was before I liberated the ps vita , I developed almost everything just the tank left in level 24 but it was really annoying to get the materials, and I recently started the vc3 with more than 70 hours I'm starting september

Just finished playing vc4, gotta say Vc3 is still my favorite game in the series, next to vc1

VC 3 is EASILY the best VC games and my absolute fav. It offers the best characters, best squad mates which actually involved in the story and have their own unique personality, and best story in the franchise. Some counter argument for your criticism albeit still with my own opinion and bias: 1. I think the game purposely to be unfair is good, it offers challenge which other VC game lacks while you can still counter them, heavy armour unit is easier to deal than their VC 2 counterparts (artificial valkyria unit), use repeating sniper and shoot them in the head or shoot them with your tank on their head, tanks are great since in this game they shoot accurately unlike in VC 1&4, your fault for charging them head on. The game overall is hard because you have busted tools which is special powers. Imca's special skill is extremely good to kill lots of enemies even tanks in a single turn while Riela's skill makes capture game a *lot* easier, use valkyria -> became invincible and kill camp guardian -> capture camp -> deploy shocktrooper/fencer/lancer to kill surrouding enemies/tanks -> repeat. Kurt skill sucks. 2. While yes maps are smaller, what makes it great is that you can immediately deploy and use the characters in battle, you can capture a base, retreat that character and deploy a new fresh one, it encourage you to use all the characters unlike in other VC games, i know i did which make me unlock all the character fragments and i love all the characters. I agree about the repetitiveness of the map, most of the map is reused from VC2 which is dissapointing but i personally fine with it. Good video overall, more people need to play VC 3, especially people who only play VC 1/4.

Im ok with reusing the maps because it makes strategizing easier. Youre gallian soldiers so you should already know the terrain Also the master table looks intimidatig but its honeslty the easiest thing to use. You just have to *read* Each giant piece represents the class and it has 3 potentials which is obtained by rising in class rank. The place where 2 classes meet represents a super potential and in order to get it you have to obtain the 2 previous potentials that led to it. The 2 preceding potentials are of two separate classes Honeslty its the easiest thing to use since youll be ignoring mist of the table

It seems like even after all this time, 2 and 3 shall be relegated to the old consoles while the first and 4th games are available and even ported to modern consoles. It would be nice if we got a HD version of the 2nd and 3rd game but, I suppose sega does not want to lose money unless they are sure it will sell well.

You can play as 3 Valkyria in this game... that is all.

I'm kind of surprise that Valkyria Chronicles hasn't been represented in a SEGA All Stars game considering it's a big series for SEGA so imagine Welkin and Alicia riding a tank in SEGA All Stars Racing 3 (not counting Team Sonic Racing).

Valkyrie chronicles 2 was so fun. I love the mix of slice of life and war jrpg. So fun. The story of 3 sounds bad ass.

Used to emulate VC3 a lot on my phone (sure, controls are awkward). It''s such a huge shame to me that I couldn't get it finished and at that time I unpurposely deleted PPSSPP alongside my saved game files (was around 72% completion rate) 😭

I have a copy of this games but it's in Japanese, does anyone here have the English version?

Interesting

12,2020 still waiting for remaster for PC even it is impossible i still waiting

Loved the introduction of the series in VC1, thought the innovations weren't perfect in VC2 but at least kept the series interesting, VC3 was a great balance I felt and was sad for how long it was lost to the west. And then VC4 comes out and it feels almost like all the innovations of VC2-3 are completely lost and its just VC1 again with grenadiers and a less interesting plot/characters.

I enjoyed this video I am a considered of this being one of the best games in the series the game made me play a lot more underhandedly which helped my tactical depth quite a lot 4 had this tactical depth but I feel it lost a lot of it when the 2nd half and all the snow set in (your not a commander your a guy with a 1000 guns to your head and want to survive so you don't fight fair you let the enemies come to you and end their unknowing lives) in the rest of the series feel like scouts were always overpowered by the headshot multiplier which lead to the scout-rush is the game perfect.....no none of the games are perfect in this series and that's fine but I think this was the 1st time they struck a solid balance(compared to vc1s rough edges and vc2s extreme easiness)

Just started, way different than 2

I wish they could remaster this for the PS4 -_-

I gave up 40-50 hours in. I tried to do everything and eventually it burned me out. I ll probably get into it again in the near future. Just started the 4th one and I can already tell the 3rd one had better story.

I was wondering where VC2 and VC3 are

2:20 and Amy, who is there just because she got tricked 4:20 alternatively you could also be a edy detachment character 11:46 to be fair, they did in vc2 as well, and in a more intense way, if i am not wrong vc3 has more maps than vc2 also about enemies having some broken stuff for them, i absolutely hate those maps (which granted, are mostly postgame or dlc maps) where they give the enemy mortar bombardment over everywhere

I mean. I know WHY I should play it. I just don't know HOW

Hmm, this is the only mainline VC game I haven't played. I'm playing through 2 on my Vita at the moment and.... Yeah the story isn't great and Avan is just such an idiot, I'm still enjoying it. Can you tell me how I could go about getting this? Is it an emulation thing?

Ive watched the anime version of senjou no valkyria not knowing its based from a game valkyria Chronicles series ... I tried to played the game once ive noticed it at the time of lockdown and got hooked to it and result me to play the whole series .. In my opinion the best vc game is vc 3 i love the characters and the new pickable waifus you get XD along with the nearly perfected game formula from its previous game vc 1 and 2 .. i also love its soundtrack that i still play to this day, specially the ending ost that always makes me cry.

theres a fan dubbed vergen that makes the game playable on psp or a psp emulater.

I am literally on the last chapter now, the game had some crazy difficulty spike (Why the heck is Gallia army tougher than Imperial army when facing Nameless LOL) and the potential system I really dislike it, for tactical RPG there is too much "Roll the dice" moment (Or maybe I didn't understand the mechanics well enough?????). I like how they kind of kept their promise of "unrecorded chronicles" in the last chapter, but the decision sounded too hasty for Kurt, I wish they could have a clearer trigger to rationalize Kurt decision, for.... doing what he did. (I am trying my best not to spoil it....QAQ) I also wish that there is an obvious distinction between retreat and annihilate. Maybe when the. character/tank/container, whatever, is just retreating, do not make their sprite disappear before showing the mission complete screen. I think it would enhance the experience. (Last few chapter, you guys know what I am talking about xDDDDDD) With all the complaint, I played it for 80++ hours, dang I like the story and I am obsessed with the system despite hating some of the element (that tells you a lot jajajajaja) My biggest regret though, is playing VC1 before playing this! I think the story would hit in a whole different level! Anyone which consider playing, I think you should play VC1 first!!!!!!!

I love this game. First is classic. Second ... not so good. Fourth really good, but i still prefer the third game. Maybe because of the story, or i don't know. It has its flaws, but imagine, if they give it same attention as first game.

I haven't played it yet but one thing that made me wary was that I heard it was brain-dead easy where you could beat half the maps in 1 turn. Is that not true?

Is there any way to get it onto the psvita at all?

I wish come to switch all 4 of them why 2 because it part of 3

Where did you guys found the english version of vc3? pls share :(((

Let me tell you how to break vc 1 Order+Alicia All games have some kind of game breaking thing

Needs a pc port bad. My psp has been long dead.

Imo anime portraits and cutscenes are better in this series.

Vc 2 or vc 3??

The game needs an English Release first; otherwise I would have played it already.

"No one in their right mind would chose this kind of life?" What are you babling about? USA: CIA SAD/SOG, Delta force, Navy SEALS Soviet union/Russia: Spetsnaz, GRU, FSB (KGB) UK: MI6, SAS Israel: Mossad

Bad at game wont go for headshot for the arm mch

Instead of stating the obvious, you could explain HOW people can play this game in English (how to do it for real, not just saying you did something).... of course people should play this but are not able to do so.
