If you like sophisticated tactical shooters with RPG elements, deep characters and a beautiful fantasy world with a great story, this real top game is for you. Pro:- The comic look graphic is really beautiful - Top implementation of a turn-based tactical shooter with exp, equipment upgrades and individual characters with various abilities. The fights are nice and crisp, but thanks to the adjustable level of difficulty they are also feasible for laymen. It is important to understand that you solve the fights as fast and therefore effectively as possible to get a maximum of Exp. and Gold. This means that very often you don't just knock down everything that isn't in 3 on the trees but proceed very tactically. - A very detailed fantasy world based on the Europe of the 30/40 and very vivid and tangible through a lot of in-game articles and information. - A great story that is classic black and white but also has one or the other storytwist ready because you don't see it coming. - Very good characters who partly have their own side quests and grow really fond of them over time. Contra:- The characters have all special skills that are only triggered or activated by certain events. But this happens only to a small random percentage which unfortunately means an unnecessary complication because some missions are only possible with top grade A if these special skills are triggered, which unfortunately often meant abort and reload. - The missions are quite different but from the middle of the game there are sometimes boring repetitive patterns. All in all, a really great game, whose characters grow quickly to your heart and which should not be missing in any collection and hats off to Sega who had the courage to create something as unconventional and unique as Valkyria Chronicles.
