Evil Fluffy posted:Having just read through the Path of Radiance LP before seeing this thread the difference story quality so far is sure something. Keep in mind that this is the prologue to three different stories. They had to cram a bunch of stuff into a few short chapters to give you some reason for siding with each side. Once you pick a side, the stories get a lot better.

Camel Pimp posted:I forget if you mentioned this, but in Fates enemies that have weapons that are effective against the unit you're moving have a red exclamation point above their heads. It's really, really nice and I miss this feature playing other Fire Emblem games. It's in FE Heroes, and in that, if you have an effective weapon, a green exclamation point is above the enemies that are weak to it.

ohmygorgon posted:Out of curiosity, does anyone know what they are referred to as in Heroes? I know there are still both daggers and shurikens in that game, but is the weapon type referred to in anything like a unit stats screen or something similar? They are called Hidden Weapons in that game too. I think it is in one of the tutorials.

CptWedgie posted:Sheesh, I know Azura's useful, but don't you guys think she's a bit overused by this point? I've been primarily voting to bench drastically underlevelled, overlevelled, or BAD characters thus far, and I'm pretty sure you guys have literally deployed Azura on EVERY MAP THUS FAR (thus making her overlevelled). How about spreading the experience a bit, maybe keep a few more characters viable for later instead of locking Tae into one specific team? She is a dancer, and gains EXP when she dances. She isn't stealing chances for EXP from other characters.

Cattail Prophet posted:Honestly, both versions of the scene are pretty dumb, but at least the one where Kaze dies has something vaguely resembling world building and backstory in it, and god knows Fates as a whole is starved for those. Granted, it's not particularly good world building or backstory, but you take what you can get. Yeah, about that... The stuff he says is covered in his supports with Corrin. He just had more time when he had the A support to see the crystal, since he already told Corrin that stuff.

Ugh, the deeprealms. Awakening had children characters, so this game decided to have them too. Of course, the children of Awakening were connected to the time travel plot that was integral to the story of awakening, but these children really have no point in being here.

Lord Koth posted:If said someone had just managed to get Lucina, I'd have an easier time believing you. At least Lucina joins during the story, and someone could had just somehow not gotten Chrom a single support point with any of his marriage options (resulting in village girl) so no nodes would appear on the map. And then never managed to get a single S rank with anyone else either. Incredulous perhaps, but at least I could see that. I'm pretty sure the person married a female Robin with Chrom. Maybe they never got S-ranks with anyone else, and never figured out what caused Morgan to exist? This might make more sense if they didn't get Chrom and Robin to an S-rank and they just married because they had the highest support level.

How Rude posted:it always struck me that the main motivation for joining Nohr was because you liked the siblings there more than the hoshido siblings, Garon not being the main factor in the slightest No, the main reason for joining Nohr was because it was advertised as giving an experience closer to older games instead of Awakening, with limited resources and EXP. I loved Awakening, but I wanted more of a challenge than it provided.

Stephen9001 posted:It was based on a popularity poll (possibly a Japan only one?) if I recall. For the Second Gen, Severa, Inigo and Owain (and Lucina I think, but they couldn't bring her here because... she's too plot important? I don't really know) were at the top. For the First Gen, it was Gaius, Cordelia and Tharja. It was the poll that decided which characters would have extra scenes in Awakening for the Hot-Springs Scramble and Summer Scramble DLC. Chrom was the fourth character from the first gen, so like Lucina, he also wasn't put in this game.

McGwee posted:I hope I can word this right, but I actually liked the scene where Inigo and Peri jump in. It sorta shows why they're the Crown Prince's retainers and not just soldiers of the army. Ryoma's didn't really come across that way... I think. Birthright sorta blurred for me. I played Conquest before Birthright so... Ryoma's two retainers each both showed up at the end of a chapter (different chapters, though), with one of them having been kidnapped until just then, to try to explain why they never mentioned her before. In fact, they get more focus during Conquest than Birthright. BlazeEmblem fucked around with this message at 03:30 on Apr 30, 2017 |

AradoBalanga posted:Also, why not use Azura's magical orb in front of the Nohrian siblings to reveal Garon is a goop monster? Why did Azura not do this when she first joined? Why does the orb only have one use before it breaks? Explain yourself, game! From what Azura was saying, it might be that the image of Garon as a slime monster can only be seen by people who have high magical power or Corrine. So Leo might see the slime, but the other siblings would only see the crystal. Maybe.

LEGO Genetics posted:Is it even possible to support grind Odin and Elise enough in chapters 8/9? I mean his only other marriage options would Felicia if you had M!Avatar and Nyx/Azura, both in chapter 9. You can use DLC maps and fight on other players' maps. You don't get experience (except for the grinding map) from them on Conquest, but you do get the points towards supports. Also, at least Odin has been to Ophelia's Deeprealm enough for her to both copy his quirks and not have obvious abandonment issues, and for him to be fully aware of his daughter's personality, which makes him one of the better fathers. Many of the other fathers have no idea what their kids act like at the time we meet them.

MightyPretenders posted:So, a 1 to 1 trade. Not quite, as it turns out. Going along with Garon led to the death of the Rainbow Sage, who - dumb tests aside - knows a lot about the world that our protagonists had no other way to find out. About this specific point, it's implied that the Rainbow sage is going to die in Birthright, just not in front of us, like in Conquest. As for attacking Hoshido, remember that Corrine avoids killing people, compared to Birthright, where she isn't avoiding deaths. If anything, more people ultimately die in Birthright than in Conquest.
