Anyone else feel bad for Valkyria Chronicles 4? :/ looking like a flop

Yeah, seems to have failed to really find a foothold on any platform.  Honestly, feels like a combination of letting the brand atrophy, failing to adequately promote the release globally, and having it release in such a busy, noisy month.

 

Also, I think they made a mistake going with Playstation as sort of their primary promotional platform.  I get Sony has a big global presence but they also had other priorities this year and in this period.  Nintendo likely would have given them more prominence given the chance.

Yeah ... don't get why AA titles would focus advertising on Playstation ... at this point, that market is too crowded advertising wise. Game could have sold a lot on Switch if it had more focused advertising on that platform, for me at least as someone who didn't play a VC game before I considered it one of the biggest/most important third parties for it (partially because it wasn't a big downgrade from PS4 so it fit naturally). It is saddenjng, if it ends up not selling then I worry for the series. I'll buy the port of 1.
