I hope Int Sys decides to retain some of the cool stuff from Echoes for the as of yet unnamed Switch game. I'll always be fond of the way magic works in gaiden, at least.

I keep twitching every time I promote a unit before it's capped. Why is it good to do that, exactly? I haven't looked at the mechanics too deeply. I went in pretty cautiously optimistic and ended up pretty surprised. Overall, it's up there as one of my favorite Fire Emblem games. The map design is awful and Alm/Cecila are kind of boring generic 'main character' types, but with the strange choice of not having a minimap (that I could find) simpler maps might have been for the best, and Alm/Cecila aren't bad characters by any means. Overall the characters are pretty fun which came as a surprise. I expected them to mostly be cop outs because "eh, just a remake". Single slot inventory is something I haven't decided if I like or not. Honestly my biggest complaint other than the aforementioned map design might well be that it's pretty short. PS: Are growth rates just low in this game? I've gotten so many 1 stat level ups and apparently Mila's turnwheel won't let you re-roll stats on those. Except Faye and Mae. Their level ups are nearly perfect. My lovely girls.  RME posted:the doubling threshold is 1, so a few stat points difference can really be it there Is it 1 for spells too? My Kliff (man he's an okay character but that's a dumb name) has 10 speed and was hitting dudes with 9 speed but not doubling. Cuntellectual fucked around with this message at 01:17 on May 25, 2017 |

Out of curiosity will characters kill themselves casting spells if you try to make them?The Iron Rose posted:Spells, like items, have weight to them that will make the difference between doubling and not. I was editing my post to clarify, I don't think they're bad characters or anything! Definitely a thousand times better than Corrin. people posted:Spells have weight. Huh. I guess I didn't realize that because they're not items this time around.

I think one of the other things I don't like is that dating sim Emblem isn't a thing. Faye is perfect for you Alm, Celica's nice but Faye is the oooneeee.Zore posted:The other exception is if you want to do the post-game without buying the hilarious rip-off DLC. You some kind of poor, boy?

What's the name of the theme that plays on the player turn for Celica? Also can you recruit Palla and Catria as Alm if you don't do so as Celica? Debating if I should do so on a second playthrough.

So it is! I didn't even recognize it, huh.Endorph posted:the complexity of love and how it can be warped, unrequited, or rendered meaningless is this game's entire theme. literally every character in the game up to and including slayde is motivated by love - familial, paternal, platonic, romantic, internal, external. it's the entire reason the whitewings are in this game. being able to play matchmaker would literally destroy the theme that gaiden had this entire time. im not saying it's an especially deep theme or that gaiden or echoes does a lot with it, but i'd rather a game have a theme that it actually sticks to, even if it's underdeveloped, than sacrifice it on the altar of shipping. That's a fair position. I've just gotten used to Fire Emblem Shipping Simulator 20XX. I also found I liked Celica more when she was off doing her own thing.

Reflecting on it I think the problem I had with Alm/Celica being OTP is that I just feel bad for Faye, this game's Cordelia.  SweaterGear posted:I just got Saber/Jesse's A support...I really hope that they get a paired ending where they start Outer Heaven. Sadly, there's no paired endings.

Zore posted:This game also has Clair, Palla, Catria, Leon and Grey as this game's Cordelia Well, in Faye's case, she's (optionally) a Pegasus Knight who has a traumatic experience, and an unrequited love with a main character she never gets over. Poor Faye.

I wonder why they felt the need to include the plot revelation they did in the bonus dungeon, because it's kind of  .

Bruceski posted:Man, some of those endings. "Genny ha a husband but won't tell her friends who he is." "Faye has a happy family life but abandons them for months at a time to go creep on Alm." I feel like someone at IntSys had a bad breakup around the time of FE1's release and still hasn't gotten over it.

SyntheticPolygon posted:Clive is always shown to be the charismatic leader guy so he becomes the charismatic leader guy, and his wife who is more skilled than him and better at murdering becomes the secret force acting behind the scenes. Like the ending would probably make more sense if Mathilda was treated as being skilled in politics or something other than just being the strongest and the best warrior, but I don't think it comes off as completely out of place. Dude, he was making a joke.
