Until this days, I can't find any game with such well executed and dynamic special attacks. This thing was the cherry of the cake of the Valkyrie Profile games.
@@diegoaguirre5305 I've been playing both Tales and Valkyrie Profile since the 90s, I'm talking SNES and PS1-era all the way through 2010s. Tales have nothing on VP man. As an adult in my 30s now, Tales seem like they're written for cringy tweens. VP is a bit more refined and mature, aging much better with the player
Can you imagine a HD remake of this? Especially with that 60FPS Blinding Blaze? Plus in all these years I don't think I've ever seen Phantom Destruction.
Yeah you need to beat the boss at the bottom of the Seraphic gate, and get their wand to use Phantom Destruction. Only problem is Mages in VP2 are really bad late game due to how elemental damage is calculated and they get out classed by Archers and almost any other class that deals magical damage. They are however the strongest class early game and will carry you all the way till the end of chapter 4 when they start becoming more like supports than damage dealers.
@@megakazuya123 Nah, he's right. FFXV was a lackluster and convoluted mess. If you thought it was any better, than any previous JRPGS we got in the past, then you're put of your mind lmao
Valkyrie Profile soul crushes have a certain force and dynamicity to them I cannot find in any other RPG special attack. Each one has a profound sense of movement and every hit feels powerful and satisfying.
So disappointing that I never find anybody (even among those who play JRPGs) that played this or even know what it is. Still have my copy and love it. Arngrim's SC is my favourite by far.
When I fist saw Narberal Gamma casting Chain Dragon Lightning I immediately had a nostalgia for Valkyrie Profile. "No mercy for the damned! Thou hast no escape from the grasp of catastrophe! Meteor Swarm!"
The only game I've played besides Dragon's Dogma that actually made magic seem powerful. I never get tired of those incantations. Lezard is the reason nearly all of my created RPG characters are mages.
6:21 Until this day may favorite Meteor Storm attack in any RPG game. Until this day one of my favorite games ever. Just watching the special attacks wants me to play it again... well i will do that anyway
So. Good. I. Can't. Even. Just the sheer power and attention to detail to make the most dynamic finishers is chef's kiss. How I wish they would come back to this format in future games as well :)
I cannot believe that they made a Valkyrie Profile game that was a bad joke over just make this one in modern graphics. The feeling of just doing those Soul Crush was everything in that game battle. And it is kinda funny how later on I learn who was Lezard Voice Actor... while watching Critical Role and now it is weird not seeing hear him and think: That's Vax/Caleb/Orym.
You missed three Soul Crushes from the gods/divine beings. "Desperate Horror" from the dude with a bow, "Grim Malice" from the guy with cards, and "Spiritual Lancer" from Odin if that is his name. Other than that, it's really nice to see these Soul Crushes again in HD
O triste do Silmeria que eles cagaram para a profundidade dos Einhenjar, até os Soul Crushs deles são tudo iguais. Sorte que o Valkyrie Anatomia está fazendo bonito como o Lenneth fez nessa questão.
This game went up against FFXII though in terms of release times closest to one another. Both had special attacks and VP Silmeria takes the cake easy. VP Silmeria was unfortunately the last JRPG that had memorable Special Attack cinematics on this level. Actually I think it probably ranks as #1 And yeah imo FF gameplay in general is glorified more than it should.
Congratulations, you're going to lose it. There is now Valkyrie Elysium, which...does not look very much like a Valkyrie Profile game. It kind of looks like Valkyrie May Cry with really weird teeth and no recurring characters that we're used to. Maybe a reboot or something. 超悲しい。
Right now I can only play native (it has issues otherwise) but I'm still happy this runs on my emulator. I use to play this nonstop on my old ps2 before it died and to this day VP2S battlesystem and finishers are amazing.
I cant believe how well this looks on your system 😲 When I tried it two years ago, it felt a bit unbearable. Maybe I should test it again on my new system.
Las mecanicas de este juego no las volví a ver nunca más y era muy ingenioso además de tener tanto catalogo de personajes la verdad que tendrían q hacer secuelas exlente juego de estrategia
Freya, the only character besides Kuja to pull a Kuja: Kuja: Time to die!!! (Casts Ultima to one shot the party) Freya: Time to finish this (Uses Ether Strike to one shot the party)
I havent played this game, only played PS1, quick question why there are multiple Nibelung valesti version? Even the their voices is different 0,0 Edit: the voice actors are top notch during this soul crush OMG!!
I know this is late but I will answer anyway there is 3 version of nibelung valesti in VP 1 1. Lenneth (sword) 2. Lenneth (bow) 3. Hrist. Meanwhile in VP2 trio Valkyrie are playable+ Alicia (our main character) has her own nibelung valesti, I don't want to spoiler you why she has it but she alone has 3 version of nibelung valesti and finally true Valkyrie which is fused version of trio Valkyrie. That is why a lot of nibelung valesti in this hame
I don't like what I see. Not developed by Tri-Ace(even if taking into account employee changes). Different Valkyries, not one of the original 3, and only the 3 exists from the og tri-ace lore. Unique 4 character control battle system and unlimited special attack chances was taken out, and VP already pretty much feels like an action game. And I question the thoughts that went into the creation of that Hrist-wannabe character at the end of the trailer, feels very full of western sensibilities. SE brand gave us FFVII Remake/multiple FF remasters but we can't have a Valkyrie Profile game with one of the og Valkyries as main characters. That's probably why the "Profile" was dropped out of the name and Tri-Ace not involved(at the least in some manner) somehow.
It's incredible to see how 2D Valkyrie Profile's special attacks were far more epic and stood the test of time, unlike Silmeria. Even it's laughably bad voice acting somehow it's more authentic than any voice acting that came after! Goes to show, if you devote yourself to make a good game, then you're good to go. A message that got kind of lost after 2010.
Gonna be honest seeing this i was reminded of Tales of Mystic Artes and i gotta say their recent MA have been a bit weak wish their mages Ma would be more grandiose like this
@@hristvalkyrie2063 Milady! Truly sad to see that SE has changed your skin tone in order to pander to the "muh minority status" crowd! in Valkyrie Elysium! 😡🤬 Will never accept the new character as Lady Hrist's Legacy.

try radiata stories
Still agree!
The developers who made this game did an ABSOLUTE JOB in being ambitious in making valkyrie profile 2. This will always be a timeless classic ps2 game
Can you imagine a HD remake of this? Especially with that 60FPS Blinding Blaze?
Plus in all these years I don't think I've ever seen Phantom Destruction.
I think it's possible with the power of AI in the future
me either?!! I didn't recognize it (Phantom Destruction) at all!

Had to come here after the recent announcement of the latest Valkyrie game, and shed a tear for bygone days.
When a PS2 game has better special attacks than most of any recent JRPG including FFXV that speaks volumes
"Including FFXV"
*...Let's calm down there, fanboy.*
So true. Most magic or special attacks seem very generic with no spice. Give us some epic attacks with good incantations, choreography and badassery.
@@megakazuya123 Nah, he's right. FFXV was a lackluster and convoluted mess. If you thought it was any better, than any previous JRPGS we got in the past, then you're put of your mind lmao
@@GilgaMax305 I mean the Eidolon Summons were god dam cinematic but yeah not much is better than Valkyrie profile soul crushes.
@@megakazuya123 except he was right.
Valkyrie Profile soul crushes have a certain force and dynamicity to them I cannot find in any other RPG special attack. Each one has a profound sense of movement and every hit feels powerful and satisfying.
Well yeah, every hit counts considering you have to make the meter reach 100 xd
It's no 3D but try playing Mana khemia...
I personally like their style too for their strongest specials~
Im playing this right now, for the first time... What a blast!
The good old rpgs 👌
just bought my first copy yesterday!
I am joining the late hype train.
Where are you guys unearthing those from? I'm jelly.
First game will always be my favorite but 2 was good. If they did a good remake of 1 I could die happy
I'll try to play it soon, no clue if my laptop would be able to handle it...
Nibelung Valesti!!!! Ahh the nostalgia
You never forgot it and you never will, because...
...it shall be engraved upon your soul!
I can't believe it took me so many years to realize that Alicia pulls out Silmeria's sword in her second Soul Crush... wow.
Good catch!
This one definitely was a gem ahead of it's time, which I proudly still hold on to.👍👍👍
Missed playing this game back in the day. I enjoyed it every much.
I wish they'd make this available on ps4 store. REMAKE PLEASE!!!!!
HD remaster is enough for me, come on at least we got something
This game....this...game....THIS....GAAAAMEEEE ❤️❤️❤️😭
I'm still salty my favorite character end up being the main villain
So disappointing that I never find anybody (even among those who play JRPGs) that played this or even know what it is. Still have my copy and love it. Arngrim's SC is my favourite by far.
Same problem is by the time you get him his SC IS USELESS FOR THE VALCANO REGION
I still play VP2 on my original PS2 to this day. Love it
The lighting effects in the SC done by there still looks amazing by today standard. What a masterpiece!
Those animations are amazing, such a great work that looks good nowadays
The dynamic camera movements and angles in this is everything.
Looks better than some PS4 games lmao
Couldn't agree more, this game came from era where gameplay are more important than graphic and developer still care to innovate
Surely better than PS4 games when enhanced by the emulator.
I want to see Valkyrie Profile Lenneth gets a remake like this quality. And see Celia as bonus character (Kashell's friend)
When I fist saw Narberal Gamma casting Chain Dragon Lightning I immediately had a nostalgia for Valkyrie Profile. "No mercy for the damned! Thou hast no escape from the grasp of catastrophe! Meteor Swarm!"
The only game I've played besides Dragon's Dogma that actually made magic seem powerful. I never get tired of those incantations. Lezard is the reason nearly all of my created RPG characters are mages.
aaahhhhh must play this again. such masterpiece and such smooth graphic for ps2
6:21 Until this day may favorite Meteor Storm attack in any RPG game.
Until this day one of my favorite games ever.
Just watching the special attacks wants me to play it again... well i will do that anyway
It’s a shame Valkyrie Elysium just pales in comparison to this gem of a game! Had to come back and see these crushes!
I miss the first one where the non main characters had unique finishing strikes
So. Good. I. Can't. Even.
Just the sheer power and attention to detail to make the most dynamic finishers is chef's kiss. How I wish they would come back to this format in future games as well :)
Never get tired of this. I'm ready for Elysium!

*NOSTALGIA ❤*
yea this game was a gem for sure
Lezard Valeth is the perfect anti-hero! Props to his writer! He's like Hisoka of HxH!
Isn't he the main villain in VP2?
De los mejores Ultimates Attacks que han creado a nivel de video juegos.
I personally think, this game is much better than FF-X. I mean the gameplay.

6:55 😂😂😂😂
Silmeria sounds like she is ordering a Nibalung Valesti burger, not engraving it upon their souls :(
Lmaooo that was hysterical
Alice Valkyrie ficou muito TOP.
It sounds like they mixed up Alicia's SC activation quotes. "Gather, crushing ice!" makes sense for v1 but not at all for v2.
Its just a quote she says when she does her soul crush its not mixed up its just one of the random lines she says when she does her SC.
They should've let Alicia use her first Soul Crush after Silmeria has been seperated from her. It's so cool
music in this game is awesome
