Well we've been playing the history mode maps so when we did the one she does feature in I asked what he thought about her. I don't think he cares about her being in the game.

Though her having Marth's moveset doesn't mean much when almost everyone in the game shares their moveset with someone else. Its pretty lame coming from Hyrule Warriors where everyone had unique moves and most characters even had multiple weapons.

VVV That is a very good Echoes

Looking at prebuilt rigs for a system running a 1080ti is there really a big difference between an i5 8400 and a stock i7 8700? Going for the 8700 would be around $250 more but I’m not sure if that would really be worth it.

its fine mechanically but everything besides the base mechanics is very bad and theres a bunch of warriors games with fine mechanics that dont also only have 9 movesets or charge you money for clones

Did you know that if you beat a boss without taking a single hit you get a unique item with special abilities for each one?

Yeah, I remembered that from watching it during a GDQ some time ago. I got all the boss items except for the one you get from the boxer and archer team. Just failed too many times and decided to barrel through rather than stop progressing.

The 3 or 4 days I played the FE mobile game was making me want to try out the older ones because it was only giving me heroes from games I hadn't played and some of them seemed cool like Draug (Who I remembered from Tokyo Mirage Sessions)/Gwendolyn/I think there was there a Mathilda? Leon? idk I already uninstalled it

I haven't played any pre-GBA FE

It would be good if they could make a game with the character variety of Hyrule Warriors with the more strategic elements of Fire Emblem Warriors, but at this point I'm not holding out much hope.

Also weapon and item systems that aren't annoying to work with.

Wii U had better exclusives during its lifespan than the bone or the PS4, and is therefore the superior console.

This is such a bummer. I loved DW8 so I was really looking forward to 9 but it looks like half of what I enjoy about the series has been stripped out. But hey now you can shoot a tiger in the head ten times while it stands there.

To clarify

I'm glad the FE/SMT Idol Nonsense Game was good. I'm glad people who are into that stuff are happy.

I'm personally sour about it because the things I love most about FE is the medieval magic dragon weirdness and the things I love most about SMT are the post-apocalyptic setting and philosophical questions, and combining those two would've been cool, like SMTIV but done better.

Also they already did a crossover in this vein with the Majin Tensei series and like.

What could've been was so cool and interesting and instead I got... not that. At all.

Yeah, the voice acting definitely made that character. Cunningham's great in a very different way, but having him in the narration role for a second time in a row on an entirely different character felt a bit weird. Not that I'd have any problem listening to him narrate every game ever if it came down to it.

Royce's acting is so weird, it's like he's always talking to you over the phone rather than from across the room. That's not a bad thing, mind.

It's a fairly faithful remake gameplay wise with some minor improvements and worse (or at least less charming) graphics and a pretty bad but fortunately optional remixed soundtrack. Apparently the pc version is pretty buggy but I haven't had many problems on PS4.
If you're a fan of the original the graphics and wether you hate the new companion AI are the biggest deal breakers.
