    Game: Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria

    Official site, with Japanese release date.

    Ever since it was announced I've been looking forward to this title. The first one is still the most melancholic and genuinely sad ( in a good way ) game I've ever played. It offered an extremely unique experience and evoked plenty of feelings within me and thus is a title which I deeply treasure.

    It was simply put a very special RPG and I know a lot of people share that sentiment, hence the thread.

    So do post away all information, screens, videos, theories and whatnot you have of this sequel.

    Oh, and watch the new trailer here. Lezard is back and far too damn sexy for his own good.

    I LOVE YOU!

    Ever since I saw the first screenshots of this I've been longing. THE TRAILER!
    Goddamn, game of the year already.

    How great the first one was can never be expressed enough times.

    Lezard making a comeback is awesome news too, hopefully we'll see more returning characters - such as my homeboy Kashell (though that's not likely since he wasn't very popular..)

    Great trailer for a great game.
    Although I wonder... is Lezard immortal or something? I really don't remember... because this game is supposed to be a prequel (about several hundred years).

    Watching previous pictures and videos I always though it was just a look-alike for Lezard... but I guess not.

    Silmeria was the previous Valkyrie before Lenneth came into the picture...

    So I guess we won't see Kashell Terra.

    Oh yeah. I never really thought about that it would be a prequel, I just figured "hay maybe Silmeria broke free :O!"

    In that case, yeah, what the hell is up with Lezard?

    Time will tell!

    Edit: Time for me to go super fanboy mode:

    - Hrist will be in it! (I'm pretty sure that's her)
    - Rufus looks like a younger Jack Sparrow. I approve!
    - I CANNOT EVEN BEGIN TO EXPRESS HOW HAPPY I AM THAT THEY DECIDED TO KEEP THE SAME SYSTEM. Despite the game's gorgeous graphics, the platform elements are still there, and look better than ever. I can just picture it now, walking across those beautiful landscapes, once again starting battles and be greeted by a similar system, indeed, they even kept that LOVABLE fighting system and that also looks amazing beyond words.
    - Trailer music = orgasm

    GIVE ME THIS GAME NOW

    Yeah, I also at first believed that Silmeria had broken out of Brahm's prison. This however makes it a bit more interesting if you ask me. Silmeria was one of the more mysterious aspects of the first game and I'm glad it's getting fully explored.

    Seeing how Arngrim is supposedly in I believe there's a good chance we'll see other characters such as Kashell or Janus ( <3 ) make a reappearance. Reincarnation is not a new theme, remember Hrist and her Einherjer? As for Lezard... well, my bet is that he put that time machine of his to use.

    I've been looking forward to this game since it was announced, not cause I played the origional which I didn't but because throughout Star Ocean 3 they planted the seed about her being a great hero or something like that. And then in Radiatta Stories she was the final secret playable character. She was pretty bad ass in RS just wish I could've used her during the normal game.

    Since I had luck getting an unopened FF7 from my local EB Games I thougt I'd try the same with Valkerye Profile but no such luck. They didn't even have any used copies and my mall has 2 EB stores in it . Guess I'll download it from Torrentspy but the version there seems to be giving people trouble.

    Or wait for the re-release on PSP -> Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth.

    A friend gave me his copy, since he didn't like the game.
    Before that I tried to buy it on ebay but... the cheapest used copy was at 100 dlls... yes... 100 fricking dlls.

    It's easily worth $100. One of the best games ever made. Oh and when it came out, the graphics weren't really bad... I particularly like the visual effects (like when you attack and stuff). I wish I had an original copy...

    The person who gave away his VP should DIE. I wish him eternal virginity and suffering in general.

    I think this is a new promotional video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-_ibTRsp9A, I stil can't get over how cool the battle system looks. Every time I see that guy Rufus I think it is shoot his arrow in battle I get the urge to say "I am the bone of my sword"

    Yeah, it's new.

    High resolution: http://www.square-enix.co.jp/vp/vp2/movie/vp2_pv2.wmv
    Low resolution: http://www.square-enix.co.jp/vp/vp2/movie/vp2_pv2s.wmv

    Poor Balbarossa. Will be fun fighting Hrist, however.

    For some reason I can't get Valkyrie Profile 1 to play past the part where Arngrim says I should've killed the naive. I've downloaded the version from emuparadise as well as torrentspy . Darn Enix and their 73,000 copies printed. The 1 battle I had was pretty cool. Would the files play better if I burned them to dvd and then ran on emulator?

    I burned the images on 2 CDs and then played it with my PSX.

    Seeing as emulators should work fine, I suggest you do the same, yeah.
    So burn, insert, load.
