I've set my expectations high because of VC1. While VC4 is still a great game overall with many appreciated gameplay improvements. but i feel the story lacks a proper punch compared to VC1 (mainly the plot). Now, comparing VC1 and VC4 : Since I've had 100% both of them, VC1 wins on the campaign story telling. It has more details in cutscenes, animations such as emotions, more cohesion, etc. VC4 has better graphics, better level design, and refined gameplay, and so many new class options to offer in one roof. I'd like to think VC4 as a spin-off, reboot, or alt timeline because of the massive difference in tech and atmosphere. I really love the new-game+ implementation in this game, way better than VC1 and is more forgiving. even after ending the main story, and i really wish they could've continued adding features. I did some light digging and came to the conclusion that SEGA didn't like how VC has become, and it appears they're giving "skies of arcadia" treatment 😢 while the developers/studio has moved onto mobile games nowadays.. There are several layers of new potential VC world building that could lead a new game that is at least not focused on the EW2.. (come on sega,) ========================== (- my nitpicks) I have trouble liking the MC (just not logical/realistic) Several characters has underbaked story and are copy paste from the first game with switched backgrounds and stereotypes (Its not horribly done, but its obvious how VC4 is trying to imitate VC1 while trying to be its own thing) My least favorite would be jascha and that other mortar guy, being so annoying with no actual lore behind their behaviors Smoke shells is an after thought with very little room for gameplay, the only time i used it once or twice for strategic purpose against bad RNG (boss camping on my characters) Lancers is the least played during my whole playthrough (not that i don't like them, they just made the class obsolete by adding several vehicles weak spots out of reach for them) low-key deployed them waiting for them to shine only to be dusted on camp. VC1 DLC Characters has different VA's that somehow messed up the original characters lore (excluding Alicia, Rosie, and Selvaria) to the point that its noticeably off

Gave it a try and was blown away how awesome it is. Wished ive known it back then. The music, style, characters, even the turnbased combat is done real well. I found it really challenging so far sometimes. The missions really increase quick in difficulty. So much side stuff and getting to know the characters. And you see how the devs really knew about military strategy, weapons and stuff to some agree and not just some no-knowers pulling stuff out their behinds. Just a beautiful game i will probably have many more hours to come and will return to it when finished quite a lot. Feels like a playable high quality OG anime at times
