Changing the formula is not the problem. Revolution is suppose to be a splinter series. It was never marketed as anything else. What the problem is they choose close range combat as the focus. Why? If this was like a RPG shooter/real time strategy game it would have been much better. 

UltimateUnknown disagree's with you.  Also see the quotes by polygon & IGN.

As a hardcore fan of the original VC, it pains me to say that I could see this coming from the first time I played through the demo of the game. They took the unique and strategic gameplay of the VC series and watered it down into some of the most bland action RPG gameplay I could imagine. How they managed this, I do not know. I had incredibly high expectations from this studio and I can only hope they go back and make a true sequel to the Chronicles series, or at the very least a full on remake of VC3 on PS4.

 

I havnt even played the demo of this, but I could tell from the videos back then, that it was too changed.

Imo you shouldnt take what people love about a game series and then just throw it out the window, thats a good way to get people angry with you.

Even god of war, haveing more "narrative" doesnt mean they throw everything else that was god of war out, they added instead of subtracting

This is stupidity for sake of whining. 

There is Mario then  Mario Kart

Pokemon then there is Pokken

There is Phantasy Star then Phantasy Star Online

Valkyria Chronicles the Valkyria Revolution.

We had a whole entire announcement article in which it was openly stated the Revolution is a spinoff/splinter series to Valkyria Chronicles and both would have no bearing on each other. If UltimateUnknown's disappointed steams from being Chronicles, which we were told, that's his problem. The point of a spin off series IS to be different from the main series. Revolution's direction sucks. It could have been an awesome series.

Use your head.
