Desert Encounter from Valkyria Chronicles Remastered - Gameplay

Oh yeah, just so anyone knows, there is a Scooter-lookalike (Scooter of Borderlands) in the game. ;D

I am currently playing the computer version. The game's a flawed gem.

For one, the overarching story and storyboard is epic and romantic - I feel so good simply reading the synopsis. But the scene-by-scene play-out? It's campy-ass shit, and the English adaptation is atrocious. For example, very early on in the game, the English voice-over for Alicia makes a bad-cop remark about her being the "one holding the gun" when she met Welkin for the first time, even though the Japanese voice-overs do not have that remark.

The gameplay is very sophisticated, for what started out as a PS3 2008 game. Unfortunately, the game has a crapload of balance issues that was never solved, even half a decade later. For example, the player's tanks are next to worthless for A-rank/S-rank performances because they cost too many CPs to use and they are just not mobile enough.

I'd buy it if I hadn't recently picked up a copy on Steam. I think it's cool this is getting another shot at exposure

Now that UC4 is coming out on May, this will be totally crushed and forgotten in the infinite space of hell. I'm very sad.
