I instinctively hate Estival Versus because I'm brokebrained and it has effectively held my Vita hostage because all I need to do to Platinum it is clear like 5-6 character stories but Senran Kagura is so bland and average that I know if I ever take the cartridge out I will never put it back into the Vita so every few days I try to play the Vita again to do a story only to find I ran out of battery life and the cycle begins anew. Curse you, Estival Versus.

It has more characters :v:

Aside of that, since is a PS4 downgrade it actually runs slightly worse than SV did.

Better get Valkyrie Drive.

I had that problem in mgs5 where I only need to do like 2 things for platinum (s rank some missions and find all the animals) but they're so tedious that I just cannot be bothered

Some of the VD trophies are insanely grindy in a way that none of the SK ones really were.

Also, how's valkyria chronicles 2?

Fun and nice to look at for a while, fumbles the pass when you reach higher difficulties and unlocking classes becomes important because class upgrades are RNG dependent. It becomes a genuinely unpleasant experience. I can think of worse ways to spend $10 but I couldn't get more than 15-20 hours of fun out of it.

Valkyria chronicles 2 was a PSP game released during peak Monster Hunterfication. Every Japanese portable game needed some sort of grinding for upgrade mats mechanic.

Also the sentence "Prepare to experience 999 as it was intended" is a bit odd considering important plot elements and game mechanics were designed around having two screens, but, whatever. Im sure theyll figure something out.

They'll use PiP.

I can't imagine how the game will play with no dual screen, I think it'll require some kind of a clever redesign.

And although it's hardly important, I dislike the marketing tagline, DS' dual screens were perfect for the game and expertly utilized, there's no way it wasn't the original vision.

And lol at the new SAO's framerate

That's awesome. Never got 999 and didn't play the others because everyone's said that you should start there.

Oh, absolutely, but I do hope they'll find another gimmick, no dual screen really does make a difference, and the touch puzzles in VLR I found really gimmicky and unwieldy.

Oh cool I will finally play 999, Its sort of insane that the first game in such a story based series was physical only for so long in this day and age.

Imagine how much more sad and lonely we would be if not for the hard work of lowtax. Here's $12.95 to his aid.
Trails of Cold Steel: CH6 done: That was it for the terrorist trio? That was extremely drastic but I don't mind it like that at all, I really appreciate the show of how vulnerable people are, if they actually are dead and gone forever. Holy poo poo. Showing that we're just a batch of somebodies, not pieces on the overall chessboard is also something I love to see, gets tiresome being The One out to save everybody in a world where nobody lifts a finger. I just know it's setting me up for the sequel and that is perfectly fine, holy poo poo Sharon what a mystery you are. I'll enter ToCS 2 when I'm done with FF15, or RE7, or P5. (The way it was explained how time afterwards was spent was okay in my book. It's not the jump in the four-episode OAV series of Sakura Wars)

28 minutes to finish the boss fight and I didn't mind it, loved every moment and felt balanced and fair, my fave turn-based combat system by far. RPG and JRPG fans need to watch some nonspoilery youtube videos and get it.

e: and I'm starting to feel these voiceactors have none of what the Japanese do in bringing power to their various pitches of voices. Not everybody can be Yü Kobayashi, sometimes I'd rather have british stage actors again than what we usually get for the west. Cheap quick project I suppose? Would love behind the scenesy knowledge on how it works from start to finish in arranging localized voices for projects like this.
