cheetah7071 posted:I just booted up my japanese copy and Delthea (23-3 speed from a shield) attacking with fire (3 weight) against an enemy with 9 speed doubles it. If she attacks with Ragnarok (14 weight), she gets doubled. It seems to be a straight speed modification. Since you don't equip spells in Echoes like you would equip items, and thus don't see the speed cut on the status menu, do you just have to keep track of Spd - Wt with brain? Which spell does a Mage counter with (and suffer the Speed penalty for) when attacked, the one last used?

In a fantastically painful and unfun Cleric-less Alm playthrough, can Silque be recruited by Celica much in the same way as Kliff/Faye can?

StringOfLetters posted:Maybe you can. But instead of doing that challenge run, why not just skip the 3DS, find a real-life brick, and hurt yourself with it until the urge passes? Yeah it was just a passing absurd thought. Even if you made the Ram Village boys into Sages that could technically heal, it doesn't excuse ignoring one of the most needed classes in Alm's army.

FYI the game saves you from attempting this extremely bad idea by not letting Silque/Forsyth/Python be recruitable by Celica. You just get a different conversation, according to reference

Pureauthor posted:Ok also as long as we're discussing presentation, how did they manage to drop the ball SO HARD when it comes to Critical Hits? Regarding the cut-in portraits, it may have been possible that the actual yelling faces that many characters already have just couldn't be implemented as higher resolution versions needed for that closeup, for development reasons. After playing the Japanese version of this game and then this one, it looks like a lot of the critical hit voice quotes that went with them read a lot more like direct translations rather than localizations--the adjacent afterbattle ally comments after critical hits/double whiffs sound much more natural in English. It's like "  i've had it" vs. "  Where'd you learn that one?" or "  You're having a bad day."also i felt like in the japanese script silque tries to talk to faye less randomly, because it seems she's trying to hit on her Sidesaddle Cavalry fucked around with this message at 19:33 on May 25, 2017 |

Tired Moritz posted:Are there items that increase growth rates? I haven't touched Faye/Slique/Alm/Lukas while I let the myrm crew just sweep everything. I hope you like DLC E: I mean Star Shards from Astral Temple or Inner Sanctum, to be clear. You can also talk to the right NPC at the beginning of that DLC to put all 12 of them together with a Black Pearl to form a Star Jacinth, if you hate flaws.

The next Mila's Bounty (whenever it's released) will give one and the last one after that will give another one. 3 total including the one you have already.

Finally found the time to beat Echoes today! I definitely missed how quick and easy it was to jump into Fire Emblem and smash reds, since my last FE game I beat was Awakening. After experimenting a little bit with Act 1, I ended up making my main run a Blitzkrieg and Fire Emblem run, so Hard Classic. There are a number of places where things got pretty frustrating if I wasn't prepared enough to put up a fight at the right time. If I had a criticism about (Hard mode) gameplay and I guess FE Gaiden, it's the huge difference between units with double-digit Res stats and units that don't. I felt like Alm's route had the best balance because of how fights devolved less into alpha-striking with huge spells while avoiding "gotcha" moments from enemy spellcasters, especially ones that had RNG-reliant Mire/Death/Medusa. Enemy Dread Fighters mixed things up a bit later in the story, but were more like man-shaped missiles to defuse rather than troopers who were there to trade blows. Hidari's art is nice and it's great that the original game was reimagined into something immersive, but the biggest surprise for me was the absolutely fantastic full voice work. We've kind of accepted character stills/artwork for granted in RPGs for a long time now, so I wasn't expecting much in terms of characterization on first sight. Instead, some of the ways the actors hammed up their roles really brought them to life for me. A few months ago I was ready to also play a separate file of Echoes hacked to be an un-dub out of crippling weeb elitism  I'm sure it's that I've just been out of touch for a long time in terms of localized JRPGs and haven't played a lot of recent ones with voice work to know any better.

Endorph posted:There's a lot of recent JRPGs with really great dubs, and a few that are actually better than the original voices. Like Cold Steel. Cold Steel's dub is way, way better than the original JP, and the original JP performances aren't even bad. I just read that the upcoming PC version is announced to have 50% more voiced dialogue. you will probably see me a lot in the Falcom thread this fall

RareAcumen posted:I can't believe how cheap Dagon Filets are for how tough those fuckers are. If only the sub-quest that lets you trade one for the 3-gold Exotic Spice could be repeatable, that would have been great. Berkut and Fernand were voiced so well that even if the plot were to write them into eloping together out of Valencia and making gay furry babies I would enjoy their characters.

I don't think I would have been able to stomach Fernand's whole story without it. You know, the whole thing where he drops the only pragmatic situation he has left (working with peasants who he bears a mortal grudge against) to roll the dice with pretty much anyone who would just as easily end him without ceremony or care for his ideals. Ray Chase made Fernand's obsession with his past much more constant and clear to me, what with the attitude he put in those lines. E: even Slayde was great, which I suppose makes sense since he's got to make a good first impression for the game, but he's a one-dimensional jobber, of all things.
