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. |
Maybe I didn't word my comment correctly, but I have no issue with them making a spin off Valkyria series. In fact I was happy to try out an action RPG from that team as I'm all for developers trying out new things and getting their creative juices flowing. But the problem here is that the gameplay is just straight up bland and boring, as I mentioned before.
This is only compounded by the fact that it's been over 6 years (even more if you consider only the west where VC3 wasn't localised) that a mainline VC game came out. So a lot of people will naturally criticise the new game even more as the resource put behind it could have gone into a VC sequel. Again, this could have been circumvented had VR been a good game, but since it's not, the studio's going to receive a ton of criticism (and rightfully so) for creating a bad spinoff when they could have given a lot of their fans what they wanted.
