So far Valkyria is racking up terrific reviews and horrible sales, which is shame because it's really something new, both in terms of gameplay and graphical presentation --it goes past cell-shading into "hey, Studio Ghibli animated this game".

What's even more unfortunate, because VC ultimately ends up being more evidence that game designers/publishers shouldn't take risks. Just churn out more sequels in established genres.
