I would love VC5 to be on the Empire's perspective. Maybe a platoon of Imperial soldiers going rogue as they try to save the Valkyrur test subjects. More Valkyrur unit types should be explored. A better story and character arc developments would be nice.
I have a small idea for a VC game but it’s probably a dumb suggestion. I’d suggest basing a story off the battle for Italy, I know that sounds silly but given in real life the allies had to take Italy cm by cm, you could have like a reverse where the imperials are holding up in VC’s equivalent of Italy and North Africa where a unit of Darkseins(god I hope I spelt that right) are part of the effort to retake the two places. Reason I bring that up is that during the Italy campaign there was a British unit made up of Jews(some from axis countries) who helped take Italy(I know that unit isn’t the whole story but I do like the idea of a unit of people the empire hates being the ones to kick their teeth in as they retake land that doesn’t belong to the empire). I’d also suggest as a sub-class option, being demolitions as a sub of the lancers where they’re equipped with the Lance just a smaller version but also a remote activated bomb(I think it could work as like a defensive weapon though I would suggest giving the player the option to set it off since if you think the unit can survive then no sense In wasting it).
I LOVE that idea! I actually am familiar with how hard it was for the allies to take Italy. Mostly because I'm interested in WW1 and WW2. Keep pitching ideas I'd love to discuss them with you!
@@ColinLackI was going to say prequel but I hit play where I paused and you brought it up immediately. The only other idea I have will never happen because of where these games are made(not trying to be an arse) but I’d say the pacific theatre would be interesting more because I love the cod world at war game and like the variety of maps that game offered, reason it won’t get made is(and I completely understand Japan on this) it’d hit just a little too close to home for them(and I mean that game only really ends one way and it’s not a nice reminder to the Japanese plus unless they take a lot of liberties they’d be painting themselves the baddies which I don’t blame them for not wanting to(besides the Germans of ww2 make better baddies)). There is another option…..play with history a bit, swap out its order and create a new continent to represent the USA(warning im about to kick the hornets nest, you’ve been warned). But base the new conflict off the American Civil war but have it happen at the same time as the events of the other games(thus explaining where the America’s counterparts are during the war and also avoiding the whole Japan discomfort problem). You could even have it be the empire supports one side and the federation supports the other. However I know this next statement is controversial of me so sorry but I’d suggest maybe the cause should be something like a power mad senitor wanting to rule this stand in America like a king or emperor(maybe revealing later he or she is a puppet of the empire). That’s it my brain can’t think of anymore ideas I consider passable….the only remaining idea I have that isn’t insane is do a ww3 scenario….but that idea is dumb
@@andrewobrien8325 Honestly I was thinking use VC5 as a build up for a WW3 scenario. Because this world is so rich you could do a lot. Also, I think the American Civil War idea is cool! Also, you could always have it that it takes the core gameplay of VC and transposes it to different eras. Hell, a VC game set during that world's version of The Napoleonic Wars could even be interesting and could delve more into the tactical side of the gameplay!
@@ColinLack oooo I love that napoleonic war idea, it’d probably be more unit themed but that could work. Though again it’d muck with history even more would be the Falklands war idea. Except maybe bring the Falklands closer to europa and have them be islands that the empire has occupied, the idea of retaking them is seen by some as utter madness but maybe there is talk of the empire pulling their darksein nonsense on this island(like an island where barbaric experiments are being done). And as a way to sell the game(plus the other games) have the team send there be an A-team of characters from the other games leading a new unit with new characters. I’d suggest as 3 returning characters Minerva Victor(I know she has her faults but the fourth game’s ending did seem to imply she had a good career and this would be a way to restore her honour), Largo(I like him and think maybe his experience wasn’t leaned on enough in the first game) and as the final returning character Welkin Gunther(I know he’s not keen on battle but i reckon that if he heard the empire was holding an island just to commit sick experiments on Darkseins…his love for his sister would pull him in). I honestly think Minerva and Welkin would conflict well with each other. During the game you could have a dynamic where you have to choose between Minerva’s way and Welkin’s way. Like Minerva’s methods could be more brutal while Welkin tries to keep the blood to a minimum(id suggest that as a tie breaker one of the characters from the second or third game be brought in who’s methods could either be more brutal or more in the middle). But still that’s just because I like games where your choices matter
@@andrewobrien8325 I also like games where choices matter! Also, I can't believe I didn't think of The Falklands War as a potential point! I'm not sure what music you're into but I love metal and the band Sabaton have a song about The Falklands War called Back in Control give that a listen! Also, the reliance on units was what made me think of the Napoleonic Wars. They could even have a continent representing The Americas and adapt The War of 1812 between Canada and the US. Which, let's be real neither side won that one. Though some do consider it as just another theatre to the Napoleonic Wars. But it's also the reason the White House is white. Because a bunch of British soldiers and Native Canadians sacked Washington.
To be fair, if Sega dont want to experiment much, it seems remake of 2&3 to PC and home console gonna be welcome addition. Also maybe try to have spin offs in maybe an RTS setting. And I could imagine Valkyria lore and mechanic couls be implemented with gameplay of Company of Heroes slightly realistic but arcadey type, since Sega also own the title
Valkyria chronicles 5 definitely needs the spy class, maybe like close quarters combat with knife and pistol could its forte plus high evasion and low hp It can also be a sub class to scouts since they have higher AP so maybee
Don't quite get all your gripes with VC4, but multiplayer functionality and showing off more of the Empire would be great ideas. Moving forward in time a bit could be interesting too, but I feel like introducing too much higher tech equipment could really hurt the balance and technical depth of the game if handled poorly, so moving fürther back in time to EW1 would definitely be the safer option... Since VC's EW2 is kind of like a mix of WW1 and 2 (with a tad bit of Cold War sprinkled in) I imagine EW1 would have been something between WW1 and Napoleonic warfare which could be really cool to see - they could give us huge cannons, man-o-wars, fortress sieges and cavalry lancers (although ig the regular infantry might end up being a lot less mobile with just single shot frontloaders or at best early bolt action rifles)
I’m doing a video on my gripes with 4. I don’t hate the game it just disappoints me. :) I would love to see some Napoleonic style warfare in EW1 :) if they go further down the timeline like VC2 did I feel like the Cold War would be the best option. I definitely feel like we need a game from the Empires perspective though!
I really want that too! How do you think the tech and gameplay would be in the first Europa War? Since I imagine it'd have more in common with the First World War than WW2.
If the campaign could be co-op with one person taking one front and another player taking a second one it could be fun. (Plus if the game was set in the empire who usually has more troops in the battles it could make sense) Vs would be fun as well tho.
my first wish would be to move the timeline beyond VC2 but have the war be United States of Vinland vs Far Eastern nation(Japan) that both Asuka from VC4 & Shin from VC3 are from since we know from VC4 that tensions have been rising between the two nations and my second wish is for online mode like you said but also add a map maker mode for players to share their maps with each other in the same way people share levels in super mario maker.
That would interesting considering there could be clear references to the supposed hypocrisy of Vinland supposedly fighting for freedom while being a deeply unequal society racially speaking Ala segregated units, racial discrimination rampant in the command structures and such and have soldiers start integrating more mirroring the irl course of the military, have Vinland have its own discriminated against minorities akin to the indigenous or black communities in America
@@ColinLack you should checkout the film we were solder’s starring Mel Gibson I’ve been told it’s fairly accurate to the actual war and it would probably give you an idea of what a Valkyria chronicles game based on it would be like
I'll just go play Unconventional Warfare. At least that isn't a figment of somebodies imagination, I.e. it actually exists (even if it is version 0.8 or something atm).
in VC4 there is a dog in many cutscenes... but it's not playable ?! So strange. I guess they cut it from initial plans. It would be cool to have it in the next one. we also needs boats, bigger maps, possibly planes "commands, to drop bombs or else. Digging trenches would be awesome too. Also in the story of 4 they briefly mention the USA and the Eastern front... I'd love to travel there to see some news landscapes.
I'd forgotten they had mentioned the eastern front also I like those ideas though I would like more small maps personally as I found 4s maps were too large and empty a lot of times.
@@ColinLack I also prefer small maps right now... because big maps have not a lot of options for players. which could be improved with more transportation methods and constructions for engineers

Yeah pretty much. We need something more than a Gallian perspective

Yes! I agree! Or a game set during Europa’s version of the Napoleonic Wars
Give me something modern, so that we can see some progression to this interesting world

Unfortunately she died :(

Yeah I don’t understand why Bubsy returned!
I really think they should re release 2 and 3 on modern consoles. I am all for 5 put would love to play 2 and 3.
Same here! I loved the first game played 2 and was loving it. Never played 3. Liked 4 but had issues with it
Don't even care what VC covers just give me 2 or 5 or both!
I would love that!
Perhaps they should move on to the next war they eluded at the end of vc2
Honestly, I'd love that!
