Really ? The top of the article shows 12/15/2008, but the bottom of the article shows


It will be frigging awesome if it comes out so soon as an US release !

I am gonna get this. although it doesnt look as good as the ps version, I am still gonna get it anyway.

anyone got the ps1 us version valkyrie profile for sale?

why dun get the psp version? should be a lot cheaper.

but psp version based on japanese ps1 version, less spectacular need to play that game to raise my interest on this one

This game is HARD. The game punishes you mercilessly if you do poorly in a mission or if you choose the easy way out. Unless you're a masochist for extremely difficult games, I suggest you sit this one out. Difficulty spikes are great though not impossible and if you don't like turning off your DS and reloading (no soft reset) your saved file A LOT, you'll get frustrated real quick.

Ugh, I remember the first VP. Somewhat non-linear in where you wanna go.. Suddenly stumbled upon this boss, fella cast some magic, movie come out, then 9999dmg x 9 on all characters

Now THAT's bullying I was like, how the hell you wanna win?

But you gotta love Enix game voice-overs, they're the 'best'!

rumor is that the localization to english will be done but game to be renamed to Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume... release on March 17th 2009...

it was no1 game in japan right now..
i meant the sales no

ign gave this game a good score

But this game is hard to comprehend, i means its english, what the hell, what century does this english comes from ??

And yeah, it is as hard as Valkyrie Profile 1, but VP2 is still my favourite !

I tot the english is like any other vp's english...sort of classical mideval style...

The characters look alike in fantasy fantasy tactics.
its looks good tho ~

Just started on Chapter 1, wow, it's harder than I thought.

The battle system is a tad bit turn-off though, it's too slow! I missed the awesome POW factor in VP2 battles.

Does anyone has problem with the Sin Points?

Please, do not Plume a single soul in your first run of the game~!

It's not a requirement! If I can, so can you!

Well I haven't plume-ed anyone yet, was a little worry what it'll do to my game.

U're not required to do it? Darn...i was worried on doing that to my first ally..n she is such a nice girl. So u're sure it's not a requirement?

To get the endings you want; (which is important if you want to tackle Seraphic Gate later)

There are 3 Endings in this installment.

Best - NEVER use the feather. (except the first one which is a story requirement on Ancel)
Good - Use the feather at least once.
Bad - Use the feather at least twice.

Using the feather & picking which destination at the end of every chapter will unlock different chapters. There are necessary chapters to be unlocked if you want to be able to unlock Seraphic Gate.

You need to have 3 different save files. Each with one of the required chapter unlocked.
1. (Parting from Hades) You get it by not using any feather between Chapter 2 and 5
2. Chapter 5 MUST be either (The one who cannot go back) OR (Lamentations of a lost child) AND use the feather 1-4 times to unlock (One's fate for straying)
3. (Compensation for one's sin)

thanks for the faqs...i'll keep it in mind

Beware of which town to choose at the begining of chapter 2, each location has different recruits and difficulty!

i'm still at the beginning...just met with the girl's father who wants to join my party. aiyoh..forgot that archer girl's name

what i find great about the battle system at the beginning is that if done correctly we can hv endless move on the enemy.

Archer girl = Cheripha

Yeah provided that you choose your sequence and move properly. Enemy can do the same too XD

ah yes..sharifah aini

Btw the battle, always try to do Grand Cross seige XD it almost always guarantee item drops

i just finished the game.

My final boss is Ailyth.

I got the ending where Wylfred returns to his hometown, fixed the musicbox, meet tilte and told her the truth(not really the truth), and his mother is sane again.

Ohhh.

I am in Chapter 3, in the middle of recruiting Ushio. Gosh I hate Rosea.

Wonder which ending is that one...

i'm in a middle of chapter 2 rite now...God...battles are long in this game

Which town did you pick?

the middle one where i hv to fight the guy with the lembing (sorry..i hv trouble memorizing )..n now going to the upper one where there's beast/monster like creature.

Camille? You get the rouge girl and the lancer blonde guy right?

yes2!! i chose the lancer guy to be with me in battle. The archer girl left after that.

Ohhh I choose Hroethe Walk, so I got Darius and Gwendal instead.

My sister choose the same path as you She was complaining the rouge girl isn't nice to use.

btw, when can our character obtain the finishing move? rite now the only one who can do it is the lancer guy...we hv to purchase the move is it?

LOL it comes with the weapon, look for the Soul Crush enabled line when you are buying weapons. You should have gotten the Viking Sword for Wyl from your first Sin enabled battle if you hit hard enough (It's a loot from one of the enemies), Viking Sword has Soul Crush enabled.

You'll get the others a little later

Always check the towns after the storyline battles. They usually have weapon upgrades.

ohh..i hv the viking sword but didn't use it after i found a more stronger blade at the shop..

will try n use it tonite

Can PM me how to defeat the final boss Ailyth?

this game is brutally hard. i think i will have to use plume now or else i cant advance the storyline at all.

Is this game as fun as VP1/VP2? Many people complaining the difficulty here and I'm a bit worried

haha, not as hard as you tot. it can be hellishly hard or unexpectedly easy depending on the actions you take. but i guess it shud be ok to plume certain persons since we need to go for all endings if we wanna unlock something

Battle is as fun as always.
