I just want a whole game's worth of Lissa trashing on the Fates siblings. Except Elise, she was cool, they can team up.

Playing Sacred Stones for the first time. I've heard the game was on the easier side so I've been playing on hard mode and haven't used the tower or skirmishes at all. It's been pretty smooth sailing so far - up until the ghost ship chapter, anyway. What a vicious level lol. Been trying it for a week and I haven't managed to get a consistent strategy yet. (I almost beat it once through a series of lucky crits but lost a character afterwards, painfully.) It's a really cool concept for a map, though, probably one of the most memorable stages in the first eight games (which are about all I've played). I have to say I'm enjoying the game more than FE7 (less than 6 though), but probably only because FE7's default mode was too relaxed (and because I'm ignoring chunks of the game to keep what balance it has from being thrown off). Really looking forward to playing Path of Radiance after this on.

Also, if you aren't using Duessel or Seth because of EXP stealing or whatever, they help a ton.

Yeah, I'm actually using both Seth and Duessel, and Moulder is liberally using the torch staff when he doesn't need to heal people. Still rough though. My current strategy is to try to push ahead into the second ship, getting everyone off the first ship as quickly as possible, while using my flying units to take out the mogalls before they descend on my main team and inevitably kill someone. The big problems are the boss squad (I can kill them if I leave Duessel and Seth on the first ship but I need them on the second to clear it) and the gargoyles who show up later in the chapter (they dick over the flying units). I think I could probably actually beat the chapter by only deplying Ephraim, Seth, and Duessel (and loading them up with healing items) lol. I want to avoid compromising like that though.

Listening to the soundtrack of Warriors, and dynasty-warrior-buttrock Alight is pretty great. I think... I think Fates was worth it, just for this one song.

Manatee Cannon posted:odin and ophelia are good if you want magic berserkers Well when you phrase it that way... Zoran posted:ODIN DARK Aw shucks, and I thought we were special snowflakes for going straight left on chapter 8 too. I posted a bragpost about doing exactly that earlier in the thread.  That's... a lot of investment into Odin/Ophelia. What I hadn't gotten a good sense of is how many seals (on average) you can afford to spend on a character. Like I wanted to make some convoluted plan to get four rallies onto flying utilitybot Shigure but that'd require burning like 5 seals on a single build, but I don't know how feasible that is or if it's worth the investment (not to mention lack of weapon skill in off-classes). That was one of my complaints for FE7 as well. With weapon durability and going in blind, I actually don't know (1) when the next time I'd be able to buy a replacement weapon would be, and (2) when/how much my next burst of cash would be, so I'd never know how much cash to burn at the shops. I end up having to play with a wiki open at all times.

I would say for your first run, just keep people in their default classes if possible because money is really tight in Conquest. Having and forging Iron weapons +1 is possibly the best things outside of the legendary custom weapons, because you have Steel weapons without the debuffs or lesser accuracy. There are also powerful weapons later on in the shop that are expensive as hell. Watch out for Hunter's Knife and Beastkiller, since they affect all beasts which include cavs and sky knights. Here's a thing I always do: Give the Levin Sword to Corrin.

I end up having to play with a wiki open at all times. More than that, its not like the shops upgrade constantly as you go on and you're expected to stop using iron/steel after a certain point. The only place in the game where you're actually able to buy high end weapons is preparations, and they give you like 40k gold at the start of that map. And again, you wind up with way more iron weapons than you'll ever need, so winding up unable to actually fight isnt a concern at all.

I started playing the new fix/translation of Fire Emblem Girls (the Sacred Stones romhack that uses all the female GBA characters) and uh... it's real good. Guinivere is awesome, and I think Karla may be a better myrmidon than any in the real games with the possible exception of HM Rutger, especially relative to the game's weapon/stat rebalances. E: Thief Mages are rad as gently caress too.

You know on the one hand it's hilarious how Owain is obviously being held back for DLC on the other it creates this hilarious sense that every cutscene involving him feels like it has characters forgetting he's even there The scene spoiler for a years old plot twist where he and Lucina reveal who they are just has him step up and people look at him like "I forgot you were still here."

they've gotten a lot better at 3d models since por so I'm sure their next game will look good well ok it'll look good so long as they don't uck up the visual style again like they did with shadow dragon. can't imagine they'd do that tho after how that went down

I really hope they keep the amiibo support where you get Ike/Marth/Lucina/Robin/Corrin as units when you use their amiibos And that you can also summon Chrom, Tiki, Alm, and Celica with their amiibos They'd all looked fantastic in the new game, I bet

Fire Emblem 15 is Shadows of Valentia, right? They aren't seriously ranking the Switch game or anything? I'm surprised TMS is up there. I heard it was divisive.

like that pastebin says fe10 also had a lot of minor complaints in jp that made it noticeably worse like 80% of their complaints are fixed in the na version, so i imagine it'd be in the ambivalent section if they had our version

This is still true 16. I'm not sure if the enemy/ally phases are any longer/shorter in english 17. Was actually fixed. So actually, it seems like they fixed 1% of the problems that wiki lists, and 99% of the game is still the same. I mean none of their complaints are about how the DB don't have unique weapons (added in english) or the missing promotion via levels system from FE9 (Added in english)
