Checking Out Valhalla Knights 2, A Grind-Fan’s Dream?

6:20AM Leigh Alexander | Publisher XSeed admits that the first Valhalla Knights was just a wee bit of a hardcore grind, targeted squarely at that sector of the Japanese audience – and the non-Japanese fans who share their tastes. So will Valhalla Knights 2 change things up a bit? Make things a little bit easier, more accessible? Add some simple modes, some auto-leveling, some easy outs? Not so much. “This one’s actually a little bit harder”, the Xseed rep told me when I went to go see Valhalla Knights 2 today. And, I’m told, that’s exactly how the core JRPG fanbase wants things. In fact, the entire game’s been built to accommodate the fanbase’s feedback, and is shaping up to be a veritable wishlist of JRPG elements that could conceivably blow some minds when it hits PSP, likely in September.
