I see a lot of 'fire emblem n00bs' posting in this thread, so here's a helpful reference guide, from me, ArmorSlayer616. Official Fire Emblem Tier Ranking DO NOT STEAL The Best Ones FE7 (Fire Emblem): Super charming writing, wonderful animations, good level design. Some of the mechanics feel a little clunky in light of later games (supports being the worst offender), but the game still holds up extremely well. FE9 (Path of Radiance): My personal favorite. Almost flawless. Recommended FE4 (聖戦の系譜, 'Genealogy of the Holy War'): Older and clunkier than FE7, which hurts it, but the most distinctive-feeling FE I've played. The only FE I'd really recommend avoiding 'spoilers' for, since the plot does a very cool thing. FE10 (Radiant Dawn): The longest Fire Emblem game... and a little too long for its own good. Still a super memorable experience. (Please do not play this without playing Path of Radiance first.) Fire Emblem: Fates: Conquest: The most mechanically perfect FE I've played. The map designers hit it completely out of the park; pity the writers were on holiday! OK FE8 (Sacred Seals): Like FE7, but a little worse, and with optional grinding. Try the reverse recruitment hack! FE13 (Awakening): OK writing, OK maps, grinding. Core mechanics are two steps forward, one step back. Also, grinding. Birthright: I haven't actually played this one, but from what I've seen, it's basically on par with Awakening. Maybe a little easier. Revelations Do not play Fire Emblem: Revelations.

Valentia looks like it's going to be a lot like Awakening/Birthright, but I'll probably buy it anyway.

In Training posted:It seems like it's more removed even from this, because of its focus on dungeon crawling and party development. Like apparently your party is always small and a lot of the units start in like a villager style equivalent and you can grow it how you want from there. Which sounds cool. I'll be starting it tomorrow and providing some hot takes Yeah, I guess I just meant it was similar to Awakening/etc in terms of the grinding and anime shipping and so on. Agreed its gameplay does sound pretty unique. In Training posted:Also I actually like Revelations more than Birthright. I think Birthright might be the worst FE I've played Just because it was too simple/boring, or...?

dragon enthusiast posted:where is thracia 776 on your tier list never played it, sorry  01011001 posted:also hit is limited to 1 - 99% but the rng is totally hosed up so you can get hit like 4 times in a row at 1% Plutonis posted:It's got a classic fe feel in which that I got hosed out of several attacks that were supposed to be 80% accuracy and got really mad you might have known this, but in most FE games, the displayed accuracy % is a lie. the game actually rolls twice and takes the average of the rolls when calculating hit chance, which means that an 80% hit chance is actually a (1 - 0.2^2 = ) 96% hit chance, and a 1% hit chance is actually a 0.01% hit chance. this is because human intuition is really bad about probability. anyway, sounds like this game doesn't do that? what a weird thing to take out
