10 Most Underrated Video Games Of The Generation
10. Valkyria Chronicles 4 (Or Remastered)
We begin this list with a trip back to that well-worn ground of World War II. Now before you bemoan how so many other video games have used one of humanity's greatest downfalls as a means of delivering morbid entertainment, Valkyria Chronicles is very, very different.
For a start, it's not explicitly set in our reality and more of a "legally distinct" timeline where the forces of Europa team up to fight off an encroaching evil. For seconds, it's an anime.
Yep. It's World War Two from the perspective of an anime, complete with dolt-headed side characters, busty lasses who kick asses, and of course an adorable central cast who have an even cuter dog WHO RESCUES YOU IF YOU FALL IN BATTLE.
This is XCOM meets Eternal Sonata, with each movement costing you a chunk of your action gauge and where you actually get to aim down sights in order to pick off enemies. It's surprisingly tough and shockingly quite moving, and if you haven't caught up on the latest (and arguably greatest) installment, you can pick up the remastered original which is stellar through and through.
