Valkyria Chronicles 1 is one of my favorite games ever, but I'll honest: 3 was a big disappointment to me. The story concept is great - a suicide squad of convicts sent on secret missions to aide the frontline effort - but the execution is flaccid.
Replay Value: 3/5. This has improved a LOT in terms of story and characters. Kurt is by far the most developed as well as many others and being that its story focuses on dark matters, it works well. There are also a bunch of new classes that 4 should have honestly brought back.

Thematically, one of the strongest points in the first game was its focus on a rag-tag militia made up of characters spread across all ages and walks of life. The second game stumbled a bit as the focus was a group of high school students–aka Japan's most cliché setting. The third game comes back strong in the character department by once again inc...
The first Valkyria Chronicles took place mostly in the north half of the neutral country of Gallia as it was invaded by the Empire (read: Nazis) in their world's version of World War II. Valkyria 3 takes place during the same time period but follows the Nameless as they are trapped behind enemy lines in southern Gallia. In many way, the Nameless ar...
Like most great strategy games, the mission goals in Valkyria Chronicles 3 are very rarely "kill ‘em all and let god sort ‘em out." Rather this game dishes out experience points based on how fast you win, forcing you to make each move count even as the objectives shift mid-battle. With the addition of the main characters' special attacks, such as t...
Make no mistake, Valkyria Chronicles 3 is a long beast of a game. In doing the story, free, and character-specific missions–pretty much only what is needed to beat VC3–the game still took me 110 hours to complete. And even then there was still a ton of things left to do. Beating the game allows you to go back and play the different story branches, ...
While not as egregious as it was in the second Valkyria Chronicles, there is more than a little repetition in the maps of VC3. What's worse, some are just re-skins of maps from the first and second games. Of course, the connecting maps, as well as enemy and allied spawn points, change each time you encounter the map; but nonetheless it grows boring...
Valkyria Chronicles 3 is the greatest game in a series of great games. It's got a wonderfully diverse cast and a thematically complex story. It has excellent gameplay, refined over the course of three games into one of the pinnacles of the strategy genre. And to top it all off, Valkyria Chronicles 3 will get you more bang-for-your- buck than the va...
Nov 9, 2012 · The uninitiated would be better off playing the original game or watching its own 26-episode anime adaptation. However, fans of Valkyria Chronicles 3 —or fans of the first two games who don't...
VC2 and VC3 are definitely worth playing. Imo 3 is the best game in the entire series and is absolutely worth buying a PSP to play if you don't own one. The translation patch is easy enough to apply. 2 is a very good game but not as good as 1/3/4.
Playing this game on a whim was a fantastic decision. I only wish it had more attention, but alas the video game deities did not deign to give this game an o...
