no sequel in the works?
Is that why they are releasing new content?

Well I mean... it's a battle about a war... so...

 

Any sequel would be in the vein of Fire Emblem where it's set either before or after the war...

and unlike most games today this game was good and actually made it's ending conclusive and self contained rather then the BS "Hey lets leave room open for a sequel even though this is a new IP... in fact lets not give a clear ending."

So if they did make a sequel it would take the storyline creators time to think up things...

What would it be about?

Set in the future with futuristic weapons? Set in other parts of this world? If so where? And what are they doing? Revolution in one country? Set it in the past? Use our weapons for Melee too? Or maybe that great war?

Gotta keep the dev team working during it. Doubt it will get a sequel though which is sad.

 

While I doubt that a sequal is in the making due to the game's lack of commercial success, Valkyria Chronicle's game world has HUGE scope for sequals simply due to the fact that what we've witness is a very minor confrontation in a ongoing struggle between 2 much much bigger super power. The antagonist of VC was merely a prince, the Empire is far from crippled and the Federation is definitely not the 'good guys' if their action in the game is anything to go by.

The possibility for a starting point in the next game could be endless. Empire, Federation or even the mysterious Valkryie, there are so many avenue that could be explored in VC's game universe.


But there in lies the problem.

The Federation aren't the good guys.

Unlike say Ogre battle where you can place each sequel in a new outside territory gearing up for your empire to be stronger then the evil one...

This doesn't happen in VC because both sides are evil dicks... so you basically end up with a scenario that's identical to the first game.

Nuetral country gets attacked.  This time by the federation to change it up probably... and we're back to square one basically.

If there was a sequel there is a lot that would have to be discussed on how the game would progress what the next story would be.... etc.

So why not keep the team busy till then.
