- a translation of an interview by Dengeki with Takeshi Ozawa (director) and Yoichi Shimosato (chief producer) reveals some details about Valkyria: Azure Revolution
On the subject of losing a character:
Ozawa: “This is something that we’ve discussed a lot, but since death is a theme this time around, if we don’t have such deaths then the feeling of fear that comes with it won’t reach the player, so we’ve decided to go with it.”
Shimosato: “We’ve readied events and other story elements for sub-characters in order to further motivate players to not get people killed.”
Are there events that don’t occur if you lose a character?
Ozawa: “The main story will carry on, but the said character’s events will be cut out. However, like other Valkyria Chronicles titles, you’ll be able to redo things, and we’re planning on having players get to experience everything just by doing so.”
About how difficult is the game?
Ozawa: “I believe that there are definitely some obstacles there, and with that said, [the difficulty] is not that low. We plan on adding an easy mode and such for the matter.”
I hope this game doesn't have auto-save. :(
