"Valkyria Chronicles 4" has been a massive disappointment so far. I'm heading only into the third chapter, so hopefully it will pick up-- because to this point the game has been ninety percent tutorial prompts, and cut-scenes. Then when I do get to play, the difficulty is so low that it borders on absurd!
The game's structure and mechanics also feel really dated, and not in a good way: poor animation transitions, character running animations going while snagged on geometry, and even the menus smack of 2006. There is nothing present mechanically or technologically which couldn't have probably been done on the Gamecube.
That, and the series' writers are still hung up on pushing so-called "social justice" messages with the character designs. Thankfully, you can relegate those toxic deviants to the bench and so never have to use them again-- which was the very first thing I did, mercilessly banishing the ugly bald "feminist", and the creepy cross dresser with the baritone voice.
