Thief wearing exactly one pant is kinda funny but yeah the designs look closer to something someone might actually wear in general

I bet there's a Heroes cameo like Echoes got a Cipher cameo. The cross-promotion has already started, anybody who links Three Houses to their nintendo account gets a Byleth for free in Heroes.

I always hear reports of people spending 100 hours on RPGs that are normal length and just assume that any reports of overly long games are just slow players most of the time e: plus yeah like 50% of FE is watching animations if you never skip them and I will be skipping a lot of animations

beating the hardest difficulties from the DS era onward has basically required you to understand the enemy AI decision making anyways, so it's nice not to have to figure it out myself

I've played most FEs a ton of times. I think FE1 is the only one I haven't played multiple times, and most are at at least three. But I usually space them out. Playing Conquest->Birthright->Revelation in Japanese in a row then doing it again in English a few months later contributed a ton to my disdain of Fates because the flaws get exposed mor easily with scrutiny

It's Mount Emblem because every Fire Emblem is Mount Emblem and canto exists in this one. I find it very unlikely that cavalier and pegasus knight will have low enough stats to make up for high movement and canto.

The way they phrase that I suspect they mean Birthright. That said, we have already in trailers seen more interesting scenes than contained in the entirety of Birthright so

# ¿ Jul 17, 2019 21:32 |

That was my reason for thinking that they only played birthright. They could also just be a person who doesn't think too hard about the story and just appreciates the spectacle

Conquest map design is mostly a series of tricky enemy formations, repeated ad nauseum. You almost never have to think more than a turn or two into the future. A few maps with that design would be a nice novelty but not every map. I also dislike most of the combat innovations--heavy focus on skills so you have to check every enemy, every weapon having an effect you have to remember, debuffs existing, etc.
|
# ¿ Jul 17, 2019 22:10 |
|
The Fates innovations work a lot better in Heroes just because maps are much smaller. Functionally, each map of Heroes is kinda like a single enemy formation in Conquest. Its just that you don't have to do ten of them back to back to get the win e: debuffs are still poo poo though

They occupy multiple squares and have multiple health bars. I think their attacks are also AoEs

I don't remember if this has been posted in this thread or just the megathread, but with 3H looming I figured I'd post a link to the goon FE discord. It's primarily a Heroes discord (that was how it started) but we talk about all things FE, and have a dedicated channel for Three Houses if that's all you care about. https://discord.gg/szMUmDU

It's weird that the japanese VAs were revealed along with the characters but the english ones were forbidden from doing so. Like I get that's it's a pretty different industry, it's just weird and dumb

d3lness posted:Are there any spoiler free must have tips for Three Houses? I'm still fairly new to the series (Awakening, Conquest, Shadows of Valentia). I've been told to level the base classes to 20 before upgrading and ignore the free advanced class in your party early on, but I'm wondering if there is anything else newbies should keep an eye out for. Ironically those pieces of advice are both not relevant to three houses and not particularly good advice in most other games either

eonwe posted:Haven't played in a while, why shouldn't you ignore the early advanced class? In the ones I played they were just a huge XP sink Your goal is not to maximize the amount of experience you gain. Your goal is to clear maps. Your earlygame promoted units help you do that easier. You can also think of it this way: from Eliwood's point of view, Marcus getting a kill and Dorcas getting a kill is the exact same--either way, Eliwood doesn't gain experience. So replacing a low-level unit with a high-level unit in your deployment doesn't reduce the amount of experience your other characters gain unless you like, solo the map with them or something. Marcus won't be gaining very many stats but he has such a head start on anyone else that he doesn't fall behind until like the last few chapters of the game, and the rest of the units you deploy gain just as much experience as they would if you made the game harder on yourself by deploying somebody other than Marcus.

I think Fates is the only game with the traditional promotion system where you really want to promote at level 20, because average endgame level is like 37-45 and the endgame enemies actually count on you having units of that level as an addendum to my post above, it's not like FE is so structured that playing it "wrong" will be all that big a deal. If you don't want to use the wrinkly old horse man you don't have to, outside of the hardest difficulties. Using him will make the game easier though.

Fire Emblem's system doesn't really lend itself to randomized battles the way other SRPG systems can. They'll never be better than okay. Though maybe since there's a finite number of weekends the skirmishes are actually static?
