Noone can seriously call Valkyria Chronicles more than a niche favourite of some hardcore SRPG lovers.
Make a personal favourites thread, because it most definitely does not belong here. |
Just because it's an SRPG doesn't mean it's a niche title. It is half FPS half SRPG with BEAUTIFUL watercolor graphics and an original story setting. How can you deny that this has the potential to be a holiday blockbuster title?

Either we have completely seperate notions of the level of sales required for something to be considered a "blockbuster" or you are flat-out kidding yourself.
|
How am I kidding myself? I'm not saying it's going to sell three million copies. What I am trying to say is that it has the potential to be a great game, if not AAA. Maybe I have a different idea of what blockbusters are than you. When I think of a blockbuster I think of quality and not quantity.

When I think great game I think quality. When I think blockbuster (and I made this quite clear in the OP), I think sales, critical reception and popular opinion. VK wont get the sales. And even if it gets the critical reception, not enough people have heard of it for it to get the popular opinion even if EVERYONE that had heard of it loved it.

If you consider Red Alert 3 a holidy blockbuster, then you must consider Valkyria Chronicles one as well. Valkyria Chronicles WILL sell more copies than Red Alert 3. I think that you're seriously underestimating this game.
