Abby_TheLastofUs Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 (edited) Game's looking a lot better now than when it was announced. Edited September 25, 2022 by Abby_TheLastofUs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raidou Kuzunoha XIV Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Most surprising thing out of the State of Play for me (other than Square Enix just pumping out even more games this year). I loved the old Valkyrie Profile games, and I was thinking to myself as the trailer was playing "is... is this some kind of new Valkyrie Profile game...? Nah, couldn't be". Was pleasantly surprised to be proven wrong. Though this definitely looks very different from the Profile games, I assume it's more in the vein of a spin-off. Still very interested regardless, and I hope they also remaster/port VP 1 and 2 to PS4/PS5 eventually as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRedMaverick Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Looks interesting but the graphics are a bit underwhelming...there's something off about it. Not sure if it's the shading or lighting in general but it almost looks like a PS3 era game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gildo1993 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Looks cool. Outdated graphics, but I don't really mind. If it's and RPG and has good and engaging gameplay, I'm in no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesmaBR Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Looks uglier than Valkyrie Profile 2 on the PS2, but I'll take it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcrunch061 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) This game looks terrible to me. The combat looks particularly putrid. The graphics are awul, even if I blur my vision and pretend that it's "stylized". Valkyrie, in particular, looks terrible. On the plus side, I'm always happy to get more tunes from Motoi Sakuraba. But honestly, who are they making this game for? As one of the few (if sales are any indication) VP fans out there, this isn't what I want to see. Do they think having loose action combat will bring in more folks? LOL. This will be born and die, just like Act Raiser did. I just don't get Square anymore. But if there is one potential bright light, maybe we'll see a remaster of VP and VP2?... ... ...yeah, I know it's wishful thinking.

mecharobot Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) The silver lining is that it's not a mainline game with this kind of low-budget effort and disrespect to the main series. Disappointing, but at least I won't be baited into playing it like with Star Ocean 5. Much easier to skip as a spin-off. Also Elysium? Is this supposed to be some kind of counter to God of War going norse, so you turn vp into hellenic route or something? Just nopes all around Edited March 10, 2022 by mecharobot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gildo1993 Posted March 10, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 10, 2022 I'll be honest. I'm simply unable to see all the ugliness everyones talking about. It sure doesn't look like Red Dead Redemption 2 or The Last of Us Part 2, but it's definitely not that bad. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 The only thing I didn't like was the battle system, looks really pretty generic hack and slash, wish they would have kept the engaging system from before but Square Enix is obsessed with this kind of battle system since Final Fantasy XV, tbh I'm more interested in the Not Final Fantasy Tactics they announced. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milanbarca82 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 (edited) I own the first two games but never got around to playing it, and I was excited for a moment watching this trailer until it showed the battle system. Another Action RPG game, really Square? Edited March 10, 2022 by milanbarca82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rozalia1 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 As many fans I'm sure will be saying. Not exactly what we want looking at it right now but... it will have to do. Hrist getting screwed for the second time but at least it seems like she will at least feature as the rival if that is her at the end of the trailer. Though I have to ask how there is this 4th Valkyrie unless this is just an amnesiac Silmeria as the previous games seemed to very put forward that there was only 3 Valkyries and beyond that Odin only ever kept 1 active at a time for whatever reason (paranoia I guess as the Valkyries seem to be prone to betray him outside the villainous Hrist). Side note but I hope they bring back the main character from the Plume game. Would be good to see him out there as a "Hel Knight". On 10/03/2022 at 5:54 PM, mecharobot said: Also Elysium?

Just nopes all around I mean maybe, but other religions/pantheons/mythologies being a thing isn't alien to Valkyrie profile. You recruit Shinto believing Samurai/Priestesses in the first game for Odin. You fight an Ancient Egyptian boss also. Having Hellenic stuff in the game would not be strange for the series as a result. Heck, even Norse stuff is done differently than the norm in VP considering Odin is a villain and Surt is actually the heroic resistance fighting against the oppressive Odin.

I suppose with PS1 and PSP games getting ported to PS4/PS5 now with the new PS+, it made this game getting ported more of a possibility. I know it's unlikely, but it'll also be nice to see Valkyrie Profile 2 ported as well (perhaps I'm getting too greedy though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
