    Was this guide helpful? In my experience, Valkyrie Profile can be hard to get into because it plays so differently. Let me know in the comments and post any suggestions you may have!

      I think it was immensely informative. I'm all ready to give this a shot now. Last thing I'd like to figure out is which version to play. Would you recommend the Original or the Lenneth port?

    • @smallspritetv
      @smallspritetv  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi! Thanks for watching! To answer your question, I would suggest the Lenneth port on the ps4/ps5. Mainly because of its quality of life features. The main difference between the port and ps1 version is that the ps1 version has an anime opening and ending while the port has FMVs for its intro, ending, and throughout other scenes in the game. Hope this helps!

    About requirements. You can actually go to the first dungeon again and talk to the fairy and read them and then load back to prevent period loss

    What a great video. I’m playing this game through emulation on my steam deck and I was really lost about how to proceed even though I was staring to understand something 😂. This video makes everything much more clear. Thanks a thousand times. Great game btw, I’m loving the soundtrack as well

    Great video. Just wanted to say thanks. I had this video open for my entire playthrough and followed it religiously to make sure I got the A ending. Kicking myself for how long I put off playing this game, hands down the most unique and addictive battle system I've ever seen in an RPG. Never would have guessed it had that kind of system. Add in the incredible story and somber tones and this is now one of my favorite game of all time. Looking forward to any vids you might do on VP2, I'm going to be starting it soon.

Thanks again!

    Man, I remember playing this game at least 3 times when I was in highschool. Afterwards, I never found a game of the sort that I like as much as this one. Also, I completely forgot how difficult it was 😅. The story is amazing, tho' and I've always kept in my heart the hope of it getting a remake... Maybe it won't be as good as the original, but it would be nice to see. I was also hoping for a Nintendo Switch release 😢

    This is great. I shelved this game not long after first trying it when it hit PS4 because it got confusing as to how to proceed at a certain point. Not sure why though, as I can't recall now what happened exactly.
    But! This video is exactly what I needed to go back and dig in properly. Thank you for putting this together. I've checked back now and then to try and find a good platinum walkthrough but I haven't ever seen one. Yours is the first video about this game that has been of any actual use to me. Subbed.

    Great guide. Although im on Chapter 6 now and basically understand how the game works.
    I just cant stop praising this game! Insane mechanics and everything flows so beautifully.
    Ive tried Octopath before but this shorter story telling of each character in VP + being a shorter game makes it much more memorable.
    Every cutscene in this game is so engaging and thrilling. Specially when Lenneth starts learning about the truth

    • @smallspritetv
      @smallspritetv  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The way the story is unlocked through player curiosity and determination is one of the things that really pulled me in. U can play the game many times without seeing the A ending route cutscenes, but when you finally do, it's such a surprising and satisfying revelation. Love this game to pieces.

    • @grisgotjunk8992

      I might have a little question. Where do you suggest to go after Artolian Mountain Ruins? I went to solde catacombs and im having a hard time with the monkey and those two wizard / mage ( i didnt lv up any car for now exept lenneth) should I ? And should I back track go somewhere else?

    • @smallspritetv
      @smallspritetv  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you're playing on normal, the forest of woes should be available, and the enemies are a bit easier. If you're in hard mode, then only the solde catacombs is available. Either way. Those mages are in the back row, and you should have Llewellyn in your party who's an archer. Archers and mages can attack back row enemies. You can also use divine item to purchase a bow for Lenneth. Make sure you're using cp points to get skills. I think u can get the first aid skill now, which is great for the opening chapters. It has a chance to heal some hp at the beginning of your turn. And level up your party too. Even though this is the beginning of the game, you don't have the gear to compensate for low levels yet. Doesn't have be to many levels, just enough to get a good skill or 2. Hope this helps!

    • @grisgotjunk8992
      @grisgotjunk8992 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes thanks a lot !so spiritual consentration(I think) until forest of woe appear? Cause i only did 2 and only the solde cata was avalaible. (Im on normal difficulty).

    • @smallspritetv
      @smallspritetv  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Correct! When pursuing the normal B ending, do spirit concentration at the beginning of every chapter until Lenneth doesn't find anything. If lenneth doesn't find anything during spirit concentration, it means u found everything and periods won't be used if nothing is found during spirit concentration.

    for those who don't know, there is a short manga of this...though it is a different story but the ending is same but too short...the main heroes in the manga are: Lenneth, Arngrim, Jelanda, Belenus, Mystina...and they showed how Lawfer died which was not shown in the game...in the Game He just died with a vague explanation..especially with the conversation he made with Aelia saying like "you can't do it on your own" or "you can't beat it"... not the exact phrase or sentence but that's the implication...

And this video is again,very helpfull. Unfortunately by accident ,I left the tower of lezard valteh when i first entred it. But i did finished it in one run... Its the only thing i did wrong and when i recrute new car, My seal value seem to stay the same. So i was wondering if i sould still try ending A or i screw up (and should keep lucian since I cant get ending A anymore. Anyway THX again for this video very usefull to this day !

    i need this guide. really helpful. do you have a guide on how or where to level up? thanks.

    • @smallspritetv
      @smallspritetv  ปีที่แล้ว

      Outside of hard mode and the seraphic gate, the best way to level up is to grind through the dungeons when you have spare time. If you have good equipment, the cave of oblivion (while random) can sometimes spawn stong monsters for a good grind. Remember to equip the coin of fortune and the ring of learning for extra exp points. And don't forget that the emerald necklace also gives you extra 100 cp points per level up. On hard mode, I grinded through the Arianrod Labyrinth in chapter 8. The monsters there gave me a lot of exp. Keep in mind that while grinding is helpful, it isn't fully necessary. VP is more item focused. In other words, equipment makes you very strong. I usually farmed a couple of levels per chapter, just to be safe.

    finally valkyrie profile lover. i wanna ask if i play this game on emulator, how to bypass the disc change?

    • @smallspritetv
      @smallspritetv  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm not really an expert on emulation. But I have used duckstation which imo, is a really good ps1 emulator. I don't think there's a way to bypass disc changing. But it's easy to use the disc change function. If emulation is your thing, then I highly suggest youtube tutorials on how to use them. It's pretty easy and most retro games from the ps1 era and before run on almost any pc. Lastly, emulators are still being updated to this day and have become even more user-friendly than they used to be. I think it's worth the time to learn the basics.

    Great guide! 1 question- when you “scan” the map at the start of a chapter and the dots appear on the map- how do you know if the dot is a recruitable character or a dungeon?

    • @smallspritetv
      @smallspritetv  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Unfortunately, there's no on-screen indication that differentiates the two, lol. Most recruitable characters are in towns, so your best bet is to read the location's description to see if they're a town or a dungeon.

    • @smallspritetv
      @smallspritetv  ปีที่แล้ว

      Sure! When you go into the in-game menu, go to Use Item, hit X, and scroll to the right. All the artifacts will be listed there. If I'm not mistaken, if they're equippable or usable, they'll also appear in the equipment menu and use item. Remember that equippables will only appear on a character's menu if it applies to them. Hope this helps!

      The robe of brytain is good mage armor, and so is the sylphan robe. Elven boots are also good. Icicle guards and glare guards can also be equipped by mages.
      Supreme garland is also a good headpiece. That's what I remember off the top head at the moment. Hope this helps, and if anything else comes to my mind, I'll let u know.

      Ok, so I'll tell u a little pointer about dragons. They can be killed in one turn using a dragon slayer sword. The sword is breakable, but if u beat the dragon in one turn (which is easy to do with the dragon slayer), the sword won't break. The same logic applies to the mage slayer weapon for some mage bosses, raven slayer for some flying bosses, beast slayer for chimeras and other beasts, etc.

  • @malbeclfc
    @malbeclfc ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi man! Just a correction. Your tip partially breaks the game. Have you ever tried transmuting orihalcon with the jewel of creation? This completely breaks the game if done 1x early, but if done 3x it makes it look like hacker mode or pre-seraphic gate. To do this, simply sell the broken weapons after transmuting to farm 100k 3x. With the save anywhere function, it makes it easier to drop broken weapons. Spoiler: it starts with "G". And yes, I was crazy enough to do that, and in the Japanese version on hard mode.

    • @smallspritetv
      @smallspritetv  ปีที่แล้ว
