FW’s gameplay will be go-
-ood because Theodora will S-Support exclusively blonds
>>732300787What's meant to be bad about that? The map? I disagree.
It's hilarious that this is the greatest extent of Japanese strategy games. Whites and Koreans blow them out of the water, I suppose that explains why we raped them so hard in WW2.
I'm not using the nowi thread
>>732302426>implying anyone makes good strategy games anymoreit's a cursed genre
>>732300787I still believe in dot theory.
>>732300787What are you mad about? Battalions or some shit?
>>732302216It's a bit bland, to say the least. It's also fucking huge despite seeming to be an early-game map based on the low unit count, introducing the possibility it'll be recycled later in the game.
>>732300787The inbred subhumans at Intelligent Systems should be corralled into a pen, stripped, shaven and subjected to 18-hour shifts of hard labor until they develop some actual taste and make a good Fire Emblem game.
>>732300787>grid is hiddenOP outing themself as a disgusting secondary
>>732302609Plenty do, it just lost its mass appeal, which saved the genre
>>732302915Post some good ones, hidden gems.
If we're schizoposting about the tiny amount of info in the trailer, anyone have any idea what the new Curse stat for weapons might be? Or thoughts on the new Charioteer and Ostrich Rider classes?
>>732300787Color is verboten in Fodlan, you should know this by now.
>>732303063>STOP GATEKEEPING
>>732302426Least obvious Korean nationalist post:
>>732303076Curse stat is probably some gimmick you'll only see a few times throughout the entire game. Charioteer = armor cavalier with a greater focus on Str/Def and Chicken Rider is myrmidon cavalier with a focus on Dex/Spd.
>>732300787>pls be weapon triangle pls be weapon triangle
The actual in-battle mechanics (shit like battalions, combat arts, etc.) weren't bad imo.The shit that made 3H completely unbearable to play was the graphics, piss poor map quality and almost everything else gameplay-wise outside of the actual battles. If FW has learned the lesson that nobody wants to spend 95% of their playthrough running around a gargantuan hub after every goddamn mission, and that if you want to put so much focus into unit building (I'd prefer if they just give us units with already set classes instead of that "anyone can be molded into any class!" shit.) you should actually put the slightest bit of effort into balancing classes so that you don't end up with 3-4 viable choices surrounded by a bunch of trash, it should be a pretty good game.>inb4 "u don't have to use the monestary"I'll kill you.
>>732303076>those frame drops on the 3H critImpressive how such an ugly game somehow managed to also run like ass.

>>732302826A chessboard doesn't have doors, bridges, corridors or special tiles, or hurdles or obstacles in-between paths. Rather a chessboard is open, and the strategy comes from the pieces opposing the other pieces. In theory you could re-balance chess by dismissing half the army of one of the players and replacing it with a tactical field advantage. But this isn't better or worse. It's different.
>>732303375Sorry anon but Fire Emblem is an inclusive sRPG series. Any character can be any class, and they're all ready, willing and able to suck your dick, be it real or metaphorical. To that end, we NEED half the game to consist of inane bullshit in a gigantic hub area that no one asked for.
>>732303375they really just need to impement a second unlockable new game plus mode that streamlines everything a bit.Sure Three Houses was a pain in the ass to replay but most people didn't replay it, and they wouldn't have liked the game as much if it wasn't for the life sim stuff between battles
They should make another game with an intended sequel to come out a year latet. I suppose in today's age it would just be a big DLC. 3H could have done it if the Academy phase was longer and had less Persona bloat.
>>732303076I think Curse will just be a reduction of your max blaze points or whatever they're called
>>732303076As much as Engage gets shit on, it really did excellent work with the actual action animations (especially compared to the other games).
>>732303739The majority of the fanbase asked for it, actually.
>>732303874That filth should stick with life simulators and Persona-esque shit.
>>732303076The curse stat shares a symbol with blaze arts, so my assumption is that you either have to use weaker cursed weapons to balance the Blaze meter in order to use stronger blaze arts, or you use stronger cursed weapons at the expense of not being able to use blaze arts.
>>732303140Nobody believes your ridiculous premise though. You’re not gatekeeping, just pretending to. The best non-FE is RC: Bakery and that’s almost 2 years old now. Nothing else in the SRPG genre that’s fun has been released in the 2020s.
>>732303874No one asked for it. The GODLESS HEATHENS at Intelligent Systems saw P5 pop off and thought 'hey our game has supports, those are kind of like social links right?' and everything went downhill from there.Death to hub areas.Death to self-insert protagonists.Death to player-sexual characters and supports.Make Fire Emblem Great Again.
>>732303969The blaze meter is an interesting-looking mechanic, because from what little we saw of it, using Blaze Skills requires the meter to be at a certain level, but skills actually increase the meter rather than spending it? So there's an element of managing the meter and not maxing it out. Alternatively since the game's JP title is Thousand Reds Ten-Thousand Purples, and the blaze meter is red and purple, you have to manage two types of blaze.
I genuinely hate reclassing in modern FE. Characters should remain limited to their plot relevant roles. Maybe have some younger characters with options (similar to super recruits) but theyre locked in once you decide.
>>732304135That was KT.
>>732303809>Three Houses was a pain in the ass to replay but most people didn't replay itiirc the game's director said that the game wasn't designed for multiple playthroughs and good lord can you feel that.I assume all the people who have nothing but fond memories of 3H are the casuals who just did one Black Eagles run and then never touched the game again. Because fuck me, 3H goes from a "This is a fine game." to "I hate this shit." real quick on that second playthrough, especially when it hits you that things like Act 1 never changes and Act 2 barely changes for most routes.Really didn't help that my first playthrough was Verdant Wind and my second was Silver Snow.
>>732304380It was co-developed with KT, you snarky little lemming.And answer me this, shitheel.Does Engage have a hub? Does it have a piece of shit self-insert protagonist?Does it have a cast of characters who are all deranged sycophants? The answer to all these questions is 'Yes', by the by. Intelligent Systems sacrificed Fire Emblem upon the at the Altar of the Eternal Otaku.
>>732304568I'll was floored ona replay. I did Lions first, so when I went and did Eagles second Inwas shocked to see the story missions don't change and Act 1 is just coincidentally heavily focused on Lions adjacent characters.
>>732304378Just don't do it
Looking back at old screenshots, the compilation showing all the units has this guy in Cai and Leda's armies, but you can very briefly see he's also deployed under Dietrich's control too in the trailer. Can you imagine if this is our avatar?
>>732305208Maybe once you select your Lord, you can recruit gladiators to fight for you, which would explain seeing some of these guys fighting in different armies
>>732305363It's not multiple guys, though. This gladiator's the only unit seen as a blue unit on more than one army.
>>732305208>spoilerThe meltdown on this board would be spectacular.I highly doubt it though because he looks too gruff, if there's an avatar it's going to be the usual wide-eyed, clean face, nice boy/girl that Japs like so much. Male Byleth was supposed to be a lifelong merc, and he still looked more like a K-Pop boy band member.
>>732305553I eagerly await for the gay porn of this guy
I served up a thread on a platter for Nowifag and he never even showed up. What a flake.
>>732303668I think I will...to Marianne...
>>732301209she kinda looks like a fem belzebub from granblue
>>732302868Isn't it a slider for visibility in recent FE games? Besides, that's from the trailer, there hasn't been anything else since November.

Bets on what class/mechanic is going to bend the game to its knees even on the hardest difficulty this time?
>>732310854Cai's chicken jockey class
>>732310854Blaze Arts. But we haven't seen many of them so there's no way to say what this game's Stride/Bonded Shield/Horse Spirit will be. Leda's songs have some scary names.
>>732311076What's so "flying" about it?
>>732311295Probably has some sort of gimmick where he can switch between being a grounded unit and a flying unit.
>>732310854Probably blaze arts, summoning and warping is always busted. If stride is still in, then that alone will break the game.

>>732302856I mean we just had engage

>>732312134Spin it to win it
>>732312327Now that I think about it, how are you supposed to beat this map aside from taking the n00b route?If I remember right, all the pirates have silver/killer weapons and move all at once when you're in their range.Are you supposed to just hope they miss?
my HEROES
>>732313109Yeah. However, 20-range Astra Storm.
>>732313337Mogged by anyone with a strength stat there too kek. Alcryst is so shit
>>732313337Alcryst isn't even the best lyn user
>>732312327Lowen TANKED thatBless his good HP and ok defense growth (40% is pretty good by GBA standards)
>>732313448People aren't ready for the conversation about him mogging the christmas cavs without Lyn mode.
Enjoy doing no damage lowen shit.
>>732313390>>732313436Ok to be fair I only use him for the covert bonus to aggro bosses from across the map, which I find more useful than Timerra blowing everything up. But now you've got me wondering if she can activate sandstorm on every Astra Storm hit.
I like lower because he looks cool same with alcryst
>>732313665>But now you've got me wondering if she can activate sandstorm on every Astra Storm hit.Who cares her range is shit. I'm saying any high-strength character reclassed to sniper will also get the increased range on astra storm and consistently deal more damage with it than he does.
>>732313151Ah yes, Fire Emblem Engage. The game where you, the Lord Divine Dragon and Greatest Thing Since Sliced Bread command a bunch of Tales of rejects with the collective depth of a slice of deli ham in a """"classic"""" quest to defeat the ancient evil dwagon and save the world, featuring all 12 Emblemvengers.
>>732313747hell yeah that shit was so cash
>>732313747Yes, in all sincerity I really do like engage the most of all fe game. Its pretty much close to a perfect game to me
>>732313837Kino
>>732313747Yes
>>732313745I mean yeah, but it's still a fun idea to explode something 5 times with sandstorm from 10-range, if it works>>732313747Hell yeah
>>732313837fucking kino
>>732313837>>732313840>>732313912>>732313972I fucking hate you people.
>>732313837Am I the crazy one? This put such a smile on my face but seems like most of the general population hated this
>>732313972>I mean yeah, but it's still a fun idea to explode something 5 times with sandstorm from 10-range, if it worksIt doesn't work for the same reason it doesn't work with Luna. The damage reduction is made AFTER the proc skills' damage boosts, so it doesn't make a big difference even if you get some procs.
>>732314059Some people just don't have a sense of humor, it's very sad
>>732314053Why? You won, you got your 3h sequel and fire emblem will be 3h forever now. You should be happy
>>732313912UUUUNNNNNGGGGGG, SILQUE SEEEEEEEEEEEEX
>>732313304>Trigger the pirates from the bottom first for an easier time, the top formation is easier to chokepoint once they start advancing>Chokepoint a lot, the enemies are actually strong enough so that you're the one who needs to gang up on them>Use Marcus a shitton, he can actually take on the enemies to some extent>Promoted Oswin is also good, but watch out for that one hammer fucker >A strong enough cav/paladin can also act as a second Marcus>Maintain WTA, tanking the enemy's hit is a viable strat except against the mages and the archer>Don't let the Killer weapons guys attack anyone they can kill with a crit. Preferably, jump them before they get a chance to attack>1-2 range is very useful for ganging up on enemies, take advantage of it>Do hit and runs with rescues>Supports can make this shit easy, especially the good ones like Eliwood/Hector and Marcus/LowenThat's my general advice. Basically, always fight the enemies on your terms.
>>732313837I clappedI also said wooo
>>732313336
>>732313747Tales has better designs and writting than your dogshit franchise you fag.

>>732313837Lucina doesn't seem like she should be the tallest female "lord." She strikes me as a womanlet.
>>732314295Cry about it.
>>732312327Usually, he spawns either too early or too late to ambush you, you just mooncalved on the exact turn he spawns. Also, he's one of the few bosses that's way weaker on Hector mode, as his threathening Killing Edge is replaced for a weakass Steel Sword and Steel Lance, further lowering the threat of the ambush there.
Guys will see this and just say "hell yeah".
>>732314347Stop with the tallflat erasure
>>732314381No but id say hell yeah to this
for me, its veyle
kys Ivyshit you lost
All I'm understanding from this is that Engage is cool as fuck.
>>732314515Oh I dont care about ivy, never even used her. i meant male alear
>>732314059>but seems like most of the general population hated thisThe general population doesn't know who half of those characters even are and have maybe played 1 FE game (probably 3H).
So cool that you will return to fodshart again.
Why are the Conquest daughters so goated?
>>732314665Stinky bitch
>>732314656DAMN that looks like SHIT.
>>732314656holy shit. its going to be like that tposing charge all over again
>>732314656I hate this shit so much man, im trying to be optimistic about fw but I dunno
>>732314624More like it's the current trend of x-verse this and that, that people are tired of and it stinks of it even if unintentional and done in an honest way.
>>732313837I think Byleth is canonically 5'9 so it could be possible to estimate other heights off of that info. I wonder if anyone has.
>>732314665
>>732314656God damn, does she only employ manlets into her army, or is Theodora just that tall?
>>732314798???
>>732314916She's a big girl.
>>732300787This looks like dogshit
>>732314916Anon, those are like 80%+ women, but some of the guys do look a little small, except that giga nigga in the back (might be a perspective thing though). She probably is a huge bitch though, by Japanese standards anyway. Expect 5'9.

>>732313837I hate how they made Emblem Camilla shorter, she's supposed to be as tall or taller than Corrin, otherwise how else is Corrin supposed to bump into her breasts in that one cutscene.
>>732315373I mean you can adjust corrins height
i could recruit this guy if i deployed his untrained lookalike (probably siblings of some kind) but the army is as full as it is, and he drops his weapon. not worth the hassle.
>>732315373Garon crippled Corrin's legs to make his escape more difficult. He's unable to stand up fully.
>>732315514also what the fuck are these the kana paralogue swordmaster boss stats? i have several unpromoted units faster than this. even if it wasn't an issue he wouldn't be worth recruiting anyways.

>>732315931she joins anyways but answer correctly (frog) and you also get free money
>>732313304Just put your unit one tile below retard anon's Lowen and you'll trigger the pirates and be out of range of all enemies including reinforcements.Damian won't move from his spot and you can drag most pirates into the corridors.
>>732300787Wow. 3H and its legion of brain dead immature spazzing fanatic losers really did a number on this franchise.
>>732300787>FW’s gameplay will be go-3h players do not care about gameplay, hell most fire emblem fans dont. Most awakening fans just like shipping. Then you have the "dignity" guys that just like PoR and Echoes because its super serious story. Ect.

>>732317853>He doesn't know
>>732317164>>732317445I mean you're supposed to account for enemy skills when placing units for enemy phase. Like the only lunge enemies in 25 are the puppets, you have things you can use to stop them like the freeze staff or entrap.
Engage romhack when? You can pretty much make custom characters already and you can edit their body to a pretty insane degree
>>732318025BOOBA
>>732317956Nah im a bit of a purist every one stays their class, unless im trying things out even then im not gonna have more than 1 or 2 flyers
>>732318025There was one in progress, think it was called ev:Create or something like that. But also I heard discord tranny modders are withholding the tools to actually open up Engage modding more, dunno if that's still true.
>>732318025Can you even make new maps with Engage? I don't even know much Awakening/Fates mods that even add new maps.
>>732317445>boss gets bored and starts moving on his ownthe ahsnard AI.
>>732318145Im pretty sure I saw someone doing something like that> I don't even know much Awakening/Fates mods that even add new maps.Didn't someone remake fe1 in fates?
>>732318157I wish my PC was strong enough to run Engage at a consistent pace. I have an idea to make a Seliph Emblem yet I cannot do anything about this problem
Modern IS is weird, because when you look at their output of the past decade and you find a stinker, it's always explainable.>Awakeningintentionally dumbed down for casuals in a Hail Mary bid to save the series from cancellation; literally dumbed down for Nami Komuro>Birthrightimitative of Awakening; IS timid about putting out just a dick-snapper like Conquest (this proved to be frivolous in hindsight, but their fear is understandable)>Revelationbit off more than they could chew, wasn't originally planned; literally got greedy>SoVfaithful Gaiden remake>3HoutsourcedWhen they fucking try to make Fire Emblem, it seems like they're capable on the gameplay end. There's no reason why Engage had to be a fun game. It wasn't marketed as anything hardcore. I think they just made a game they wanted to make with no bullshit and it ended up being fun.So the question really is...is FW that type of game - another Conquest, Engage (gameplay-wise)? Or is there yet more fuckery & shenanigans afoot?
>>732318341>bit off more than they could chew, wasn't originally planned; literally got greedyIf they just fixed the level some units joined at it would be fine desu
>>732318157>Owain but boring
I'm at the end of chapter 3 in geneology. since I have all of the first generation characters now I think should I just mash end turn like 30 times to make sure everyone is fucking the right person so I can ignore it for the rest of the game or should I just go to the next chapter already?
>>732318603Owain but boobing
>>732318341You just a retard who never played fire emblem gamesLiterally first line about awakening was wrong>intentionally dumbed down for casuals1. Awakening was "dumbed down" because it their first game on engine with 3d models, they couldn't even fucking do feet, do you really think it was intentional for "casuals" too? Same with maps and a lot of other things, that were fixed in fates(including birthright)2. Defending Tiki map was famous back in the day for making tellius kids to ragequit, because they considered the fact that enemies could ignore your units and go straight for Tiki to be "unfair". Was it "dumbing down for casuals" too, in your small teen brain?You opinions about other games are equally retarded
>>732318341With Conquest it's easily explained that because they had Birthright releasing right alongside it as the casual option, they could make a proper experience for hardcore fans. But with Engage, they explicitly said they wanted to target kids and new fans. So I'm less sure how that turned out as it did, maybe it has to do with it being an anniversary title?
>>732318626You stop earning love points after turn 50 so unless you're under that don't bother.
>>732318675Anon, go read interviews, his statement is literally what happened. They used Nami Komuro and her inexperience with the series as a testing ground and said they changed things according to what she couldn't get or understand.

>>732318675I've played every game in the series. You should stop seeing red for a moment and inform yourself. IS has admitted to dumbing down Awakening for Nami Komuro - a casual. This is literally record and not a matter of debate. It's also just plainly obvious let's be real.You're also misremebering facts. IS were more than capable of doing feet, which is why they did it in Fates. They just didn't know if the 3DS engine could handle it. They weren't a bunch of rank amateurs, they knew what they were doing and they crafted a game designed to sell.>actually defending Awakening on the basis of the Tiki mapoh, so you're just a bootyblasted Awakeningbab, that's what this is about
>>732318812She better have gotten a physical body at some point so Byleth wasn't stuck with schizo handjobs for his entire life.
>>732318820L O N D O NONDON
>>732318675>because it their first game on engine with 3d modelsThat has almost nothing to do with the gameplay, you think the character modelers are setting the map lay outs and dictating where enemy's are placed, how reinforcements show up and how mechanics like pair up work? >Defending Tiki map was famous back in the dayWas it really? I played it in middle school the whole game was easy to me
>Awakening was dumbed down for casuals>even though it was notoriously harder than all the ones before itI don’t really get why GBA and Tellius tards even attempt to say their paper thin games have any difficulty
>>732318901>Reason why we didn't got feet in aawakening was because of casual gamers and Nami KomuroOpinion discardedHoly shit, newfags are deludedI personally blame mobile game that brought retards like that into series

>>732319075Reminder that majority of Ike fags never even played tellius games...
>>732318675Awakening was a shit ton of people's first FE so I'm willing to bet a lot of those posts about Tiki's map being hard were from them. It makes sense, it's the only map in Awakening that actually asks you to do something beyond having enemies rush into your pair up death traps and gives you something to defend. Awakeningbabs weren't used to thinking about positioning.
I have been replaying Awakening and I'd argue Lunatic is harder than most previous games in the series, with only the DS remakes being harder, but with Awakening Lunatic it's not necessarily in a fair or good way. Most of your units early in the game can only take like 2 hits and your healing sources sometimes aren't strong enough to bring you back enough HP to survive one hit. The maps are too open to reliably allow your units not named Frederick to go on the offensive without having to worry about enemy attacks on EP. You pretty much have to use Frederick. And then the game has same turn acting reinforcements you have to worry about.Meanwhile hard mode is piss easy, it's like comparable to something like Sacred Stones or Path of Radiance. The game can be broken by nosferatu tanking and pair up is a rng mess of a mechanic.I think with regards Awakening its difficulty modes are poorly balanced.
>>732319093Are you shit posting or can you just not read,
>>732300787I had a dream the other day they revealed the mus for this game and they were a green haired loli/shota and everyone was having a melty over it
>>732319221Awakening Lunatic is only "hard" if you don't know what to do. In reality the first couple chapters are kinda slightly tough, and then the rest of the game is a Sacred Stones tier stomp.Awakeningfags have not been taking this fact gracefully for the past 15 years. It really gets in their ass and triggers quite a bit of trauma, as you can see right now.
>>732319221Lunatic is just a dice roll until your units are strong enough to destroy everything as per usual. I guess technically thats challenging but its not interesting
>>732317548Even though it's one of the more boring Solm maps, that one is still a decent map by design because it has some side objectives in the villagers - who can be suicidal at times, and it's a deceptively easy map that has some pretty rough enemies on it like the 21 AS Levin Sword swordmaster, and the 22 AS wolves with 48 avoid and 25 crit with the stiletto. If you're dumb enough to get caught in the sand traps, you're really not going to have a good time. It remains to be seen if FW will pull off stuff like this on its maps. I'll give it a shot, but I'm skeptical.
>>732319253>loli/shota avatarI would kneel so hard and also enjoy reading all the reddit/twitter seethe about it the whole day.
>>732319204>I swear, it weren't tellius fags who complained back in the day? how could it be? I never played series but heard that before awakening fire emblem games were suepr hardcore and threads never were about waifuslol>having enemies rush into your pair up death trapsYou are aware, that positioning units right, made both rd and blazing blade braindead? With you just watching enemy units killing themselves...Actually, before awakening, enemies weren't even scripted to always attack unit against whom they had highest chance to kill/damage. Which was another complain about awakening back in the day and how "ai forces you to restart map by killing units, instead of attackign the closest one"
>>732319371same I miss being able to pick a different body type at the very least like in fates and awakening

>>732302426I do find it interesting how strategy games seem to be a predominantly White genre. Then you have Koreans playing shit like Dota and LoL or whatever. Meanwhile in Japan all they play are “mash A” simulators like Pokemon that basically play themselves. Frankly, I’m amazed Fire Emblem has survived as long as it has

I'm an Awakeningbaby but I did consider getting into the series on GBA (Sacred Stones). I was so charmed by the armor knight sprite and the pegasus, that I wanted to try Fire Emblem on that basis alone.But what dissuaded me is that I didn't understand what the permadeath meant. I got it in my head that the characters were disposable and faceless (armor sprite didn't help with this), which didn't seem appealing to me.Can't remember what I ended up getting instead. Probably something bad.
I'm like a bigger version of an awakeningbaby, when it comes to my first FE game, because I didn't even first found out about FE through Awakening, it was through Smash Bros which later got me to look at Awakening.
>>732319334>Awakening Lunatic is only "hard" if you don't know what to doYou got this part right. I feel like people get lost in the sauce of both how hard the early game slaps and how some of the numbers get quite high, that they forget that it's still just the same simple numbers game FE always is, and they give you some of the best growth units of all time with sky scraping stat caps. Even in Lunatic+, the only skills that really significantly impact the flow of the maps are Pass and Counter. The rest of them either just affect the damage calculation (luna, pavise, aegis), or is the same thing as FE12 H4 in vantage. Hawkeye's impact is debatable, but I feel you should always be playing as if all enemy hits will land anyway.
>>732321279It's funny how people are still considering awakeningbabies newfags even though it released 14 years ago
>>732321393It still feels new to me in my mind. I don't consider myself a newfag though, I've played more games than most oldfags. But it still feels nu-FE to me, I can't ever shake it. Awakening is Fire Emblem's Akira nuke moment after which everything changed.
>>732321393Once a newfag, always a newfag.Although it is funny seeing Awakeningbabies get a taste on their own medicine when 3H blew up FE in popularity even further, so now even they have a group to call newfags.
>>732320956>I've spent the past 12-13 years going through the rest of the franchiseI don't consider people who did this 'awakeningbabies,' to me those are people who started there and have only played new products since. Even in the GBA days there were the 'blazing blade/sacred stones' only types who never bothered exploring the earlier stuff. Similarly, I wouldn't fault anyone who started with 3H and decided to explore the rest.
>tfw first game was FEHI suppose it did its job because I worked backwards from there.
>>732321682I've said it before and I'll say it again3Hbabies has done far more damage to the franchise than awakeningbabies ever didAt least awakeningfags eventually cross-pollinated to other FE games, the majority of 3Hfags' discourse is either talking only about 3H or hating engage. The other 90% of the series doesn't exist to them

My first game was fire emblem awakening and I played on normal casual my first run
>>732300787Why does the new game look so much uglier than engage?
I started with Awakening when it was brand new and it was awesome.>>732321762Interesting. What made you interested in FEH? Also what was the first mainline FE game that you played?
What are the odds Fortune Weave is a fair amount of people's fire FE games, like with Awakening and 3Hs?
>>732322568Fuck I meant first FE game
>>732322675I feel like rev should be pushed down to you didn't start here
i got into the series by watching my mom play sacred stones when i was little
Engage mods even got boob physics now, neat
>>732300787FE's gameplay has never been good.
>>732322558>What made you interested in FEH?I think I might have seen some talk of it on /v/ or elsewhere around its release and it piqued my interest. Before that I only knew FE as the games that the warrior guys from Smash were from, and I also vividly remember watching the Fates trailer in some E3 and thinking it looked cool. Figured there would be no harm in giving it a shot.>Also what was the first mainline FE game that you played?Sacred Stones.

>>732318309I want honest thoughts on this theorycraft idea for Seliph actually and how it his Emblem would affect Engage's gameplay. I love this guy and would make a mod for him if I could.
>>732322675TMS was almost my first because it was the first FE game I bought. But Awakening was on sale around the same time, and I decided to try that first so that I might learn who anyone in TMS was.

I learned of fire emblem from smash but I never really though about it as a franchise despite maining roy. My brother randomly got me sacred stones I didn't even really understand what kind of game it was at the time. I got to the end of the game waiting to get phoenix downs or some sort of equivalent
>>732324068Anon...
we need to go back to maids and a harem for side characters like in fates
>>732324101What?
>>732323795You can still play it plus there's a billion gba rom hacks for you to play
>Capture enemies>Sell them for moneyGood or bad?
I don't care about the Persona busy work or that sim aspects, but I did really like how 3 Houses had actual world building and relatively deep characters.Hopefully this new one can get somewhere close to that bar, even without the Koei Tecmo involvement.
>>732324394>and relatively deep charactersI found most of them dreadful or annoying being "deep" doesn't fix that
>>732324297>what if the good guys engaged in slaveryreally nigga
>>732324297Good idea. You should also be able to steal skills from them through interrogation. There would be some enemy exclusive skills you could only get this way.
>>732303375>I'd prefer if they just give us units with already set classes instead of that "anyone can be molded into any class!" shit.You have to go incredibly far out of your way to actually pull of >le wyvern memes in 3H. The ability to do it is predicated on abusing as many of those monestary mechanics as possible in order to maximize teaching, and then to savescum class advancements on top of that. 3H effectively molds every unit into a line of intended classes already, it just gives you the option to waste 20 hours of your time if you want to instead make dedue and raphael into bishops and put catherine on a flying lizard.

>>7323218713Hfags have had exactly one mediocre game to skip, its like going back to 09 /v/ and seeing the people complaining about telliusfags for not taking a liking to shadow dragon. The real issue are fatesfags who have spent a decade rejecting the entire series for not being fates and still want future fire emblems to just be conquest again forever.
>>732325769A mechanic that scares off casuals because they dont want to intentionally invite bad thing, while being completely abused by people aware of how to mitigate the minimal consequences while maximizing the advantages to turn the entire game trivial?

did you know that in fates if you lunge a flying enemy on flier terrain and kill them when they are paired up with a non flying unit, the lunge will still happen which is the only way to give a non flier unit access to flier terrain.they wont be able to move tho.

>>732301209I'm no longer racist
I've played the sacred stones as a kid, and remember really liking it (probably because it was one of the few games I had).I got older and asking my parents for newer consoles and games was kind of shameful so I couldn't play newer titles.So I've practically had to wait until I was old enough to work to purchase my own stuff, since before then 3DS emulation still wasn't good and stable enough.Both awakening and fates were decent, but I didn't really feel as excited as when I was a kid.Then I tried Three Houses, it was the same. Same with Engage. I've had more fun with Unicorn Overlord than them.The fact is that I've also played room hacks, and they were fun.I think I'm just an uncle now.
Shadow Dragon was the last good FE game.
>>732300787I have absolutely 0 interest for this shit. That map screams awakeningshit map design
>>732316967I got cancer just from looking at this tier list
>>732340968>Gaiden was the last good FE game.fixed that bait for you, thank me later
>>732340405>Actual best strat in NMIts actually berserker, at least on Lunatic anyway, except for a few chapters where general defense helps>3HActually the best strategy is to dump the massive amount of stat boosters you receive all on Byleth because stat caps are both massive and well beyond what the game is balanced for. Then you use a Retribution gambit, warp Byleth into the center of the map, and watch as he kills everything, including siege tome users, because Retribution is retarded.
will mewgenics be as fun as fire emblem?
>>732341187>BerserkerYou are right that it's the best class to reclass to after stacking defense, I'll fully concede here>on BylethIf you're playing AM, it's better to dump your resources on Dimitri instead since he gets Batallion Wrath, Vantage and Atrocity. That's why I generalized to "strongest unit", since it's not guaranteed to be Byleth.And yeah, retribution is utterly retarded, trivializing maps further.
>>732341621Oh yeah AM is the exception, Dimitri is stronger than Byleth in general too. 3H might have been poorly balanced (dlc was kinda ok though) but it did make for a fun sandbox for broken shit.
>>732339720I mogged the shit out of 2 on Lunatic after a single reset at the beginning. Sure it's * but imagine the hardest chappy in the game taking one 5 min reset before getting bent over by Fred's armored horsecock, just to change positions slightly on one turn. And you still call it hard.

>>732300787>Engage is praised for its gameplay improvementsI'm going to die of laughter if they revert back. They'd be retarded if they revert back to Three Houses gameplay when Engage had such a huge improvement on the gameplay aspect. Fingers crossed the enemies we fight isn't bandits 24/7.
>>732341974>*Aka you would've also failed at the relays. Awakening confirmed hard once again
What if the devs fell for the open world meme?
>>7323425922 is the only "hard" chapter. 5 can be rough if you don't prepare for it. I also inherited a scuffed 5 save in an earlier run and lost Sumia on it. Overall Awakening is easy to trivialize, but in a relay context with differing skill/familiarity levels, you can't expect good results for the expected reasons.
>>732342907>5 can be rough if you don't prepare for itSo not only is there a chapter hard enough to force resets, but there's also some that require you to plan for them? Thanks for confirming that Awakening is harder than most FE games
>>732342809They already did
>>732342907Actually I think it was Ricken I lost or something. Another anon lost Sumia on the next chapter.>>732343137I get that you're shitposting at this point but I don't think "train Robin a little" or "reset once in the entire run if you position too aggressively" count as "hard." If we could get past the earlygame with Robin alive, Awakening would be shown to be quite easy, but that's a big ask in a relay.
>>732343276Those two chapters alone already make Awakening harder than most FE games, as they provably will fuck you up if you don't lock in>B-but I don't struggle with them!Keep coping, *

>>732350078>bringing up storyContain your autism. It's a map design discussion, we're talking about the reasons Fire Emblem games fail as video games - SoV was too faithful to Gaiden's game design. Read posts fully before you reply to them in anger.
>>732349951no shit. charmlets are shit tier by default because they get hit by them and the enemy ai will prioritize it. and since you can't counter it kills enemy phase momentum. it also incentivizes the awful tea party grind that's the worst part of playing lunatic.
>>732350084https://serenesforest.net/three-houses/miscellaneous/battalions/The highest single stat boost is a +10 to physical damage that you can get once per playthrough on a single route (Dimitri's), whereas in Awakening/Fates you can get +9 Str on an S support with a Berserker pair up. Stat-wise, batallions only affect damage or damage reduction, whereas Pair Ups affect all stats (which influences skill proc chances AND bonus damage from skill procs). In addition, Batallions do not give Speed, which is one of the most useful reasons to pair up (Berserker Charlotte as a Xander backpack and Adventurer Nyx as a Leo backpack are both meta picks that give an insane amount of their primary attack stat AND speed). So, no, the stat boosts are not higher than Pair Up.
>>732350248Conveniently ignoring the other mechanics I brought up, I see
>>732350541>charmlets are shit tier by default because they get hit by them and the enemy ai will prioritize it.Either don't put them in range, or do put them in range and keep other units out of the AoE range. Use strategy in a strategy game, nigga
>>732350691disingenuous retard.
>>732350939>no argumentConcession accepted
>>732350571>+10 to physical damageThat also gives +5 defense, +5 hit and +15 crit (plus charm), which you've conveniently ignored. Way to sidestep the whole Gambit issue, btw.>B-but it's just Dimitri's batallion that's bustedThe Gautier Knights, which you can easily get on any route, give +7 atk, +20 avd and +5 def (plus charm), and it even gives Stride.
