Awesome game! At first I couldn't get into it; I kept failing missions and I found the game to be a little bit slow/clunky at times. I also felt a bit overwhelmed by all the classes, upgrades, tank stat numbers... A couple of years later I came back to try again, but to my surprise I found it's actually a pretty simple, compact game, and it also isn't that difficult at all! And that's what I really like about it: It has some classes and upgrades, but you can't cheese yourself through by just upgrading; good strategy remains the foundation. Getting A ranks on missions also seems a lot more daunting at first than it actually is, especially considering you can save and load after every turn. You can do a lot more in one turn than you initially might expect. Also very nice artstyle -certainly unique-, solid soundtrack, decent enough story and some fun (very anime) side-stories. Just a charming game overall. Looking forward to playing 4!

One of my favorite games from the PS3 era, completely intact in all its glory. If you enjoy turn-based strategy games, this one is a treat. On Steam Deck: runs perfectly. On the first time launch, select the framerate to match the refresh rate so you get more than 30fps. This game is very lightweight and didn't even hear the fan kick in once during gameplay, battery life for this title is great. Also I had exactly one crash after recruiting and upgrading and had to do it all over again, it's best to save often just in case.

Great game. I don't really understand the negative reviews complaining about the lack of strategy/the need to complete levels quickly. The game does not require you to get an A rank on every level. Getting an A rank in every level might mean that you choose to do a couple fewer skirmishes, but, then again, it might not. Getting an A rank just isn't necessary at all. You're not punished for being slow and methodical. You can play the game in whatever way that makes it the most fun for you.

A great game, the series comes the closest to feeling like Fire Emblem without actually being it. It's aged very well and the port is decent. Story is basic but charming, and gameplay is very fun. Its basically an easier version of XCOM mixed in with some Fire Emblem. Some notes about the port: - SAVE OFTEN: I had one crash that happened twice right after the first mission, the first time it happened I didn't save and lost 30 mins progress. The second time I saved and it was fine. Have not had issues since but just make sure you save after every mission as there are no auto saves. - This is a port, not a remaster. cutscenes are stuck at 1920 x 1080, and some textures look bad, especially at higher resolution but its fine as long as you go in knowing that. In terms of QOL Mods there aren't many, just one that will skip the intro and load the game faster. There are some rebalance and graphics mods but they don't seem worth it.

Any individual who would join a military (of any nationality. They are all, ultimately, all roughly the same in this regard,) should first turn to history as their primary teacher and advisor. History teaches us: -Exceptionalism is a threat to those above you in the hierarchy and it must be punished. -Success will earn you increasingly impossible tasks. -Political recognition is a temporary shield from a jealous structure that wants you dead simply for doing the job you were hired for. I'm not being funny; this was my experience while I was in, and this game does an excellent job of emulating that reality. In the event you don't believe this to be an endorsement: -The cast is very endearing. -The gameplay is extremely fun, once you understand the unique take on turn-based combat. -It's a slow burn, but it ramps significantly in intensity the whole way through. -Hitoshi Sakimoto has a divine gift for music. He can reach straight into your heart and pull a love for a country you've never visited (and technically doesn't exist. Alternate history and such,) straight out of your soul. -I hold the epilogue of this game as being among my all-time favorites. It's extremely wholesome, and grants an incredible sense of closure. Furthermore, "Senjou no Valkyria" (the anime) exists for anyone without the patience to play through the game.
