More like tumblrgroove.

>how do we revive it?
If it were to revive, it would be coomer waifu mobile gacha shit.
Just let it lie.

Yes and its ok but the campaign just isn't that great, and I generally don't play multiplayer too much in these games

My fave CO, even in AW2 when she was only mediocre.

From my experience, AW-type games devolve into horrible stalemates on on any non-gimmick maps, and also take up too much time per game which conflicts with the casual appeal they're going for. Either go full on 2hour deep strategy or do something quicker and less involving like Into the Breach in terms of game length.

Art-wise it's definitely tumblr, story and writing are non cancerous though. Played through it and didn't find stuff that made me retch. Frankenstein valkyrie was really likeable actually.

people like seeing numbers go up, even though they largely diminish the strategy aspect

Just finished that mission and was fun, one eagle bomber won the game for me. Fuck the cannons on this map

they really need to give it the fire emblem treatment to make it economically viable in today's climate. make every unit unique, and add some kind of vn or support system between units

Zig Forums would seethe so fucking much but it would sell ten times as much as the previous games

True, and that was one reason why competitive AW was so terrible along with FTA and elitist tier-fagging (fuck you, I'll use Colin if I like). Most games just devolved into same-y mirror matches with Infantry, Artillery, and maybe a tank here or there.

What rank?

The expendable nature of your grunts stands in direct philosophical opposition to the tender loving care and nurturing and raising you do with your troops in thriving franchises like Fire Emblem. It is a cold experience, where Fire Emblem is warm.

Zoomers and Coomers ruined it all.

Pay Hiroshi Kajiyama enough to convince him to come back and design a new team for a back-to-basics Shining Force game and market it modestly on the Switch. Literally all it would take.

How much would that be?

>make every unit unique, and add some kind of vn or support system between units
so literally just a reskinned fire emblem? fuck off

guess which franchise is still alive and which isn't

also, i always liked the modern day setting with tanks and stuff more than swords and magic, so a waifufest strategy game set in the modern world is kind of a dream of mine

Zig Forums would seethe because it wouldn't be even remotely the same game. AW in essence is a coldblooded war game wrapped in a sunny outlook. Your units are just pawns and the only things that matter are strategy and money

well turning a failing franchise into a completely different game to boost sales worked with re4, why not AW?

The AW IP itself doesn't matter, the gameplay does. Ripping out its guts to appeal to faggot weebs is pointless.

It probably would work, but why the fuck would we want it? Wanting advance wars back is about the gameplay style, not the franchise itself.

the gameplay itself was resurrected by wargroove which is as soulless as it could get, i would much rather see them turning AW into valkyria chronicles or something like that

i'm not talking about what is optimal for us, i'm talking about what is actually financially viable. releasing a game catered to a bunch of old autists like us would doom it on arrival and the franchise would just go back to being dead

idk more than he’d make designing big tiddy animu figurines

Well we weren't talking about what's financially viable, so I don't know why you're bringing it up.
