    Yeah, the first Parasite Eve was a gem. Same for Xenogears, this one is my favourite. Vagrant story is excellent also, Valkyrie profile 2 fights were really fun, with some kind of rage bar that you had to fulfill when you made combos with your characters, I loved how they screamed when they attacked. Chrono cross is coming back on PS4 and Switch, it was amazing too (in my opinion Time’s scar is the best song on a game I’ve ever heard). Shadow hearts from another company was one of the best PS2 rpgs.

    yeah, back then you got a huge 3 disc game like ff7 every year, now they split the game into 3 or 4 parts and you have to wait 5-10 years between parts, and most people actually praise this... so of course after ff7 remake is such a huge success, they'll milk every popular game they have in a multi part remake. most people may get to play 3 of these remakes in their lifetime, if that. the way games take longer and longer to release as time goes on, it may take 20 years to get part 3 of ff9 remake, or whatever they're making 20 or 30 years from now.

    Valkyrie Profile is a story close to my heart. It saddens me so much that the series will just fade away into brainless phone games with zero plot. VP 2 should have ended better so that we weren't left with so many unanswered questions. I hate that Lenneth wasn't able to return to Lucian in her own timeline. Why destroy such a beautiful romantic story with some stupid reset button ending :(

    The game does have a plot, and more so, spending money in it increases the chances of a new Valkyrie Profile game being made, please do not post on an any forum without having first hand or reliable knowledge of what you are talking about.

    You're forgetting one small point, Yamagishi abandoned both the Star Ocean and Valkyrie Profile series after Star Ocean 4. This forced tri-Ace to work on new IP's with different publishers such as Resonance Of Fate, Beyond The Labyrinth and Fronteir Gate. Resonance of Fate being the last game tri-Ace would ever release overseas for 6 years. Seems all the games flopped in sales, tri-Ace were in a downward spiral with their games which led them to become liquidated into nepro japan, possibly due to the fact that they were broke. If you ask me, the biggest mistake tri-Ace made was working with Konami as Konami didn't want to localize any of them which meant that tri-Ace weren't going to generate as many sales. It came to the point of desperation when they started working for Square-Enix on their Final Fantasy games, with no Producer willing to stand in on tri-Ace's behalf, tri-Ace had nothing left, they put all of their chips on Yamagishi and with him gone, tri-Ace could no longer operate in the same way and the other publishers didn't really do them many favors either. Then Kobayashi came in, recognizing the state tri-Ace was in, he decided to take on the reigns as producer in order to bring back Star Ocean, hence Star Ocean 5's existence. He also intended on bringing back Valkyrie Profile as well... but since Star Ocean 5 was poorly received by the masses (even though I enjoyed it a lot), the chances of that happening now are -1%. So the reason Valkyrie Profile died? Yamagishi... that is all. Yamagishi killed Valkyrie Profile by abandoning tri-Ace... it's funny how he came back for Anatomia but didn't let tri-Ace play any part in it. He eventually left, mocking Kobayashi for his futile attempts to bring back the series. But Yamagishi isn't the only thing to blame, tri-Ace's liquidation definitely didn't help things, they lost a lot of money, even after Yamagishi was gone, one of their projects, Judas Code was a colossal failure which was a massive money loss. And the final reason is that Valkyrie Profile has always been a niché franchise. While the first game has a sizable cult following, the sequal and spin off are pretty obscure by comparison. As such, Square-Enix don't want to risk it. As for Star Ocean 5's flop? That's simple, tri-Ace were already in a bad shape financially beforehand and now that they are owned by a mobile company, it's not very likely that they will be adequately funded as Nepro wouldn't want to invest their own money into projects that have barely anything to do with mobile gaming and Square-Enix definitely wouldn't offer enough money to fund it. As such what we were left with was an under-budget game that was clearly trying to be a big budget game... I personally believe that tri-Ace were personally funding the development of their games, especially Valkyrie Profile 2 which was so well funded that Square-Enix decided to pump extra money into marketing giving it a live action trailer. Despite this, the sales numbers didn't bring a return on that investment, hence the fact why many tri-Ace games after Valkyrie Profile 2 were poorly received by the masses.

    I forget the old source but it mentions it on the Wikipedia page for Star Ocean 4: starocean.wikia.com/wiki/Star_Ocean:_The_Last_Hope It says that "he did what he set out to do with the series". As for Konami, the only accusation I gave them was that they didn't localize any of the tri-Ace games they published (fronteir gate and beyond the labyrinth) which meant that there wasn't any opportunity for western sales which could have been done had they localized it.

    Resonance of Fate, which has a lot of mixed reviews, is still an interesting concept at heart. Gun-Fu, armed with ordinance with enough scopes, barrels and magazines to create scary Frankensteins of death, while performing Matrix-level acrobatics, is a fun design choice. Too bad you have to grind yourself stupid to get anywhere..

    That's all about having great titles/series but awful internal relationship management. A lot of great publishers have this same problem. - Capcom = Resident Evil, Mega Man, Onimusha, Dino Crisis; - Konami = Metal Gear, Castlevania, Silent Hill; - Square-Enix = Valkyrie Profile, "Ivalice world" games (such as FF12, FFTactics and Vagrant Story).

    Valkyrie Profile had some of the most beautiful sprite artwork in terms of FLUIDITY IN MOTION. When they leap in to do their attacks, and leap back out into position, the way their hair and clothes moves are some of the most delicately drawn spritework I've ever seen.

    Shame this franchise doesn't get as much attention as Star Ocean, for me it's far superior to the Star Ocean franchise (except Star Ocean 2 this one is really awesome) I really wish for a VP3 and/or a Valkyrie Profile 2 Remaster. The difficulty of VP2 wasn't actually coming from grinding it was coming from the fact that the most efficient strat were risky in that had you running with a single character at low health with some statut effect on it and knowing the type of your ennemies to equip the good ability to increase the damage against them so no room for error sure you could play normally but then the fights were far longer, the 50 Crystals difficulty add to that by making the ennemies very durable so you have no room and you're facing ennemies that can tank you for a long time and so you have not only to deal damage but also know how to attack, when to attack and for some have to break some specific part of them for an early kill and/or to skip some phases where they gain access to some troublesome ability plus the ennemy are so strong that there is no other that using these risky strat.

Like what happened to Brhams and Silmeria after Lenneth recreated the world, and what happened to the Gods after Loki's defeat, the importance of the Dragon Orb, etc. It also allowed us to see how the Valkyrie's souls work when they are "sleeping" inside Midgardians, which I always found interesting.

VP2 was good, but not near as good as 1. It sucks that most returning chars had different voice actors, which I know some cant be helped. Plus Jeremy Blaustein didn't translate VP2. We need a VP3!!!!!

    Theres a Valkyrie Profile collab that happened for a game called Final Fantasy Brave Exvius in japan which is coming to the global server soon so its possible that if it gets the same popularity as the NiEr banner it will make Square consider. Even a Valkyie Profile 1 remake with modern graphics would be massive doesnt have to be VP3 Hrist and they can also add more to the unsolved mysteries within the game such as Lady Beliza, who prove useful for a future villain/side villain for Hrist if she ever gets her game

    It's interesting now to consider that Tri-Ace is self-publishing the remaster of Resonance of Fate (one of their best games imo) as it indicates a desire to get out from under the thumb of Square Enix, and resurrect some of their old franchises. They probably chose Resonance as its likely the easiest and cheapest to port, but if that release does well for them, i really fucking hope it does, then maybe, just maybe, there is hope for them resurrecting Valkyrie Profile too. I would suspect after Star Ocean 5 bombed the studio is having a hard time. I would implore all JRPG fans to pick up the resonance of fate re-master. Not only is a great, unique game, but its success could mean SO much more

    Sadly it isn't, problem is it's already extremely easy to generate energy in this game (heck without a full team you generate 100 Energy) so there is no need for an Archer for that so at the end of the day it all comes down to Damage and here the game is weird ^^ comparing Archer Lenneth with Ultimate Bow with Sword Lenneth with Ultimate Sword (not Angel Slayer) the damage of normal attacks are pretty much even (a very slight advantage to sword) despite the ultimate sword having 5000 more attack power than the ultimate bow BUT the difference lie in Purify Weird Soul which are your main source of damage and for whatever reasonthe Nibelung Valesti with Sword is 2 times more powerfull (testing with the same ennemy and with Might Reinforce and Sap Guard apply) than the bow one and sadly that alone makes Sword Lenneth better than Archer Lenneth in Seraphic Gate.
