Different audience. The kind of people that have the patience for tactical strategy games would probably deal with durability mechanics easier I would imagine.

Isnt there a mode in the more recent ones that disables weapon degredation? Not that it matters too much because SRPG where you can just buy new weapons and dont typically burn through entire weapons (and save good weapon hits for bosses) in a battle is very different from zelda where it shits up bad combat.

The most recent one didn't have weapon degradation at all but otherwise you can't turn it off. They are bringing it back in the new one though.

In Dead Rising I got two pairs of mini chainsaws and the three books that make them last forever and that sorted me for the entire game, weapon degradation is fine if I can completely loving ignore it lol

I always deliberately lose to them in unlock battles so I don't have to look at them in my roster.

I don't know if it's being a higher level, or this competition going on, but every single game of Tetris 99 I play now I just get absolutely hosed instantly, in the first two minutes. Holy loving poo poo, just "oh hey my entire screen fills with garbage instantly and I die" over and over.

Select attackers when you’re getting targeted hard like that and send that poo poo back. You’ll get some easy KOs then.

Shield incinerators wander around on legs for your convenience (some stay in place, so make note of those). Just watch for the handy laser pointers.

Digital only since I don't want to clog up my house with more plastic crap.

Big fan of the gravity vortex weapon that pairs well with other elementals. But my very favorite is the fire ram. You just smash into your enemies till they die. It's super fun.

When I played fire emblem they didn’t break very quickly and didn’t really happen mid fight that much.

I get it for super powerful weapons but regular weapons breaking in fire emblem just seem like busy work.

This is a thread where people claim to not recognize Scarlett Johansson and Chris Evans, people who've been in dozens of the biggest movies of the last decade, after all. Like, forget "doesn't follow pop culture". These people don't even look around themselves in public. They don't look at commercials on TV. Or billboards. Or magazines at the checkout line. Or TVs at restaurants or waiting rooms. Or visit any news or culture sites. They can't tell actual people apart, I'm not surprised they can't tell anime characters apart either.

I would probably recognize Chris Evans but I definitely would not have been able to connect his face to his name before looking it up

If you can't tell apart 10 anime characters in goth armor from video games you've never played you should probably be executed for the good of humanity.

I mean just go to any public place in America and ask any random stranger "hey, who is Chrom?" and I guarantee you 10 out of 10 people will get it right.

My dude, you're throwing a tantrum because someone doesn't recognize an anime character from a 7th tier handheld video game franchise and thinking that's absolutely impossible in this day and age.

Take a deep breath and think about how, despite your bad analogies, 99% of people don't care about your dumb anime.

Stop being disingenuous, Hodor. Everyone in America knows Chrom. Chrom is every bit as ubiquitous in pop culture as McDonald's and The Avengers. Saying otherwise is dumb.

Have you met many Nintendo fans/switch owners irl? Cartoon wife/army academy simulator is not on anyone's radar unless you're a giant anime nerd.

It's kind of like how online everyone seems to be passionate about metroid/f zero but in real life nobody cares because of how extremely niche it is

Don't let the forums paint your worldview too much
