niggergard's route is sufficiently different from the other 3
>>
>>738013136
3 houses didn't need to waste dev time making the routes unique. They just needed players to *feel* like they were getting a unique experience, since the vast majority only plays it once and will simply assume the other routes offer different experiences. Quite sneaky, really. KT even admitted in an interview that they didn't expect people to replay the game lol.

FE7 is actively held down by the existence of Lyn mode since it's boring as fuck, caused both of the main modes to be shorter than usual (slightly over 20 main chapters instead of the usual ~24/25), and completely guts all of the Lyndis Legion members' stats for the main campaign if you don't play it.

The way you're supposed to play FE7 is playing Lyn first, then Eliwood Normal being surprised it's actually a story about Eliwood, then play FE6, and then play HHM to understand that FE7 was really about Hector all along.

You are not expected to play A Glimpse in Time at any point, it's clearly not meant to be stumbled into organically.

>>
>>738014664
FE8 has a lot of bloat too with all the Valni and Lagdou Ruins maps that nobody actually plays. My point is that having to make a bunch of extra maps does indeed have a proven toll on the quality of the main campaign itself. 3H is even more egregious on this front.

Conquest was designed from the ground up to be the "gameplay first" entry of the two Fates routes with Birthright being intentionally dumbed down to compensate. The consequences of that are pretty clearly seen in the end products.

>>
>>738028547
Effie is good but not because she's a knight. In fact, her being a knight is the primary cause for players dropping her at their first convenience.
>>
Knights are good as a class, and have good characters in more games than not. Defense is fundamentally a good stat, and the moment that you reach a certain threshold in it, there's very little that enemies can do against you.
The real shitters are archers, they get to have bad stats as well as the most restricted range type while barely getting any better weapons for that range.
>>
>>738028429
Good enough to carry casuals playing the game for first time. If that doesnt tell they are good when retards get carried by them then i dont know what to tell you
>>
>>738028603
Nope her knight bases actually help her out in a few ways, her defense is mediocre otherwise and she wouldn't be able to enemy phase as efficiently
>>
>>738028771
She'd have better enemy phase in a class with workable speed because she'd be able to double. Her defense is even too high, causing some enemies to straight up ignore her on ch 10 where you want to be fighting as many at once as possible.
>>
>>738028547
You don't need a knight in fe12's prologue, it's just a bit easier and the high defense growth is beneficial for the rest of the game.
>>
>>738028771
It also helps activates her personal often since it gives her a lot of str.
>>
>>738028639
Even the ""good"" knights aren't consistently useful throughout the games they exist in. Knights are only good if the maps let them, i.e. the chapter layout and/or objectives gives them easy to reach objectives that don't need to be pushed through quickly. It has almost nothing to do with difficulty.

>>738028895
The only enemies that will realistically ignore her on 10 are the pegasus. Her high defense allows her to singlehandedly take on the 5 archers and the spear fighters on the right. She also makes 9 pretty easy with a javelin
Her enemy phase would be pretty awful on chapter 10 with worse defense, even if she's doubling it doesn't really matter if she gets 3HKO'd by the oni savages or the archers

>>738028895
>causing some enemies to straight up ignore her on ch 10 where you want to be fighting as many at once as possible
Skill issue, enemies ignoring you can both be easily circumvented (unequip def+2) or straight up be beneficial (switch the pairup lead to Effie and have her be completely safe in the middle of enemy lines)

>Her high defense allows her to singlehandedly take on the 5 archers and the spear fighters on the right

But Nyx and Odin can both solo that with nosferatu easily. Fucking Selena can take on archerkeks with a beruka pairup. The fact that yu are bragging about Effie fighting the least threatening part of the map by far is comical.

Every Kris that isn't a knight has a moderate chance of bricking your run in the prologue if they don't get good level ups. Knight is the closest thing to being rng proof though not entirely

I think you can tolerate bad levels, the risk is more about getting a 2% crit at the wrong time
>>
>>738029579
No Kris build can brick you in the prologue, it just can make it harder later on. Knight is good but there's classes like fighter and cav that can clear it just as well. It's really just the extra def growth that makes it the most useful long term.
>>
>>738029843
Nope. If you use tonics, there is a 0% chance of Odin dying with nosferatu on the right.
>>
>>738029856
No it can definitely brick you. Of course if you don't care about reliability you can just reset over and over until you get every hit you need, which is what anti-knight LTC fags do anyway.

>>738029746
Out of the four native dark mages in Conquest, only Nyx performs poorly with it. The actual "problem" with the spell is that it falls off badly unless you dump all of your spirit dusts into one super mage. Likely a blessed Odin or Ophelia.
>>
>>738029928
If you don't use tonics it's probably like 5% with an average Odin and suboptimal pairup. If you have a wyvern Elise pairup I think it's back down to near 0% even without tonics.
>>
>>738029915
It literally can't, what are you talking about? At most it makes some of the prologue maps more difficult if you pick a really shitty class like archer. This is all besides the point anyway, which is that Knight is not mandatory for the prologue at all.

I let Odin and Nyx/Elise handle the left. Silas/Selena fuck up the right and everyone else handles the bottom. Works like a charm every single time.

>>
>>738030081
The safe option is to use tonics. I also use tonics on Effie so that's a given.
>>738030072
Elise isn't doing anything too important as a troubador so it's more about building their supports and giving Odin guard stance. Anyone works, really.
>>

Sounds like a pretty bad class to me. Fighter and cav beat prologue just as well and arguably better btw, and they don't fall off a cliff immediately once you can actually change to other classes. You armorfags should learn to take whatever small wins you can get instead of trying to turn into some grand cope that they are actually le good. Armor knight is a bad class in FE12.

>>738030565
It's best to reclass out of knight after the prologue but general is useful in several maps.
Killer lances in chapter 6? Kris tanks that. Also a bunch of ridersbanes in early chapters.
In the midgame you might reclass someone into general during the dragon arc.
And Arran should reclass to general if he can.

Cav is good. Figher sucks.

>>
>>738030741
Homecoming, she's your second armor who you recruit just right before the midpoint of the game. Usable, has rare support with the dark mage you get at the same chapter, ready to instapromote and will hit enemies hard, but you probably already benched your first one, maps tend to hurry you up, she has 2 base speed (even with meme 90% growth) and the mages here are especially glass cannon-y so they will murder her often. if this is a joke about her race it appears pretty much every time Homecoming is discussed you aren't original

>>738031975
The essential character trait of the chronic player phaser is "punished." Rather than learn how to overcome a dastardly enemy phase, they shrink away from all enemy phases based on negative experiences, opting for the safe comfort of the slow, deliberate hoard instead.

Split paths in the middle of the game is better than the completely separate routes like they did with fates and three houses as we can see that 2/3rds of fates routes were complete garbage and all of three houses had mediocre maps.
Branching paths at least doesn't overextend the team and allows them to fine tune the stages
>>
>>738032324
I mean, yeah, really this is the answer. I'm always surprised by the number of anons that swear by total avoidance of significant EP combat, though. EP action implies player phase action, but player phase action doesn't imply EP action. It's a weird hill to die on - missing out on a majority of combat opportunities as "the way."
>>
>>738010562
It can be, yeah. Like Three Houses. Most of the routes are largely reused, so when you go into other routes to see the story changes and new supports and all that you mostly have to play through what's basically the same game. It's to a point where I'd say it's a detrimental factor for Three Houses, it's hard to say "just don't play the other routes" when you need to play multiple routes to actually see the full story. Three Hopes was better about that since the routes actually felt unique, so hopefully Fortunes Weave is less samey (assuming it has routes).

/v/'s favorite game conquest forces you to enemy phase. in fact when the map design does favor player phasing /v/ complains that it's bad.

player phasing with low def units that can't survive enemy phase is far more tactical than just throwing units that you know can't die at the enemy.

Enemy phase being really good started with FE7 and ended with FE13. All the games in between are javelin/hand axe fiestas and they all suck.
Player phase based games are infinitely superior, which is why FE6 is the best GBA FE.

This is extremely naive. The very example you gave of a "player phase based game" is extremely EP heavy. Enemy phase has been of enormous importance since FE1, without exception. No GBA or Kaga game is "player phase based" in any meaningful sense.

You can enemy phase the early chapters with Marcus I guess if you're going for 0% growths, but the map you posted is really fucking hard with prepromotes.
To get Alan and Lance to the point where they can enemy phase that amount of enemies requires a lot of deliberate XP feeding, and guess what phase that happens on if you don't want a counter attack?

>>738033715
FE1 is genuinely enemy phase heavy, I will give you that, but FE3 Book 2 and FE4 have enemies that hit like fucking trucks, especially early on. Once you get Forseti, just enemy phase the whole game, but a significant portion of the game before that point throws dark mages with Hel and other absolute nword enemies that will chunk your units for like 1/3 if not 1/2 of their HP.

Beat the right side and then open the door from the bottom and kite them around the map to separate the faceless from the stoneborn. Honestly not sure how they intended for you to do it.
>>
>>738034437
you are looking at it completely reversed. the number 1 rule for playing fire emblem any way is to not hit end turn when the enemy can kill someone. if you are using an enemy phase strategy that just means only attacking with units that mathematically can't die. it doesn't matter if all of the enemies die or not because you are completely safe, and they will probably kill themselves while attacking into you anyway. if you are player phasing you have to commit to wiping the most of not all of the enemy formation because you have to move vulnerable characters in to attack, and the only way to ensure they survive is by killing everything that threatens them before you hit end turn. this requires far more planning than enemy phasing which only requires simple math.
>>
>>738034574
the map is fun because it's one of the most open conquest maps and has no gimmicks aside from ballistas. that's all it takes to be good when the alternatives are ninja hallways and wind bullshit.
>>
>>738035532
The only reason you'd be able to avoid enemy phase altogether is if the enemy is never pressuring you in any way, and therefore you can just turtle your way up the map slowly.

no, you avoid enemy phasing by killing as many enemies as possible during your player phase, which you can't do when you spend half of your deployment limit on backpacks and benchwarmers that you never allowed to get exp.

They also have seal defense and poison strike/savage blow. I think the massive rock stoneborn have like 51 attack so you'd need 57 effective defense to survive.

Not him, but if you have a speed pairup or Azura dance he doesn't get doubled and can just one-shot after tanking a hit.

why does benny just not get classes through friendship. he only has two cq friendship supports and neither of them provide him with a new class. even in rev they gave him diviner through hayato. what the hell?
>>
>>738040290
he's an ugly male armor so he's low priority
>>
>>738040290
I don't think they actually planned out the friendships in terms of class offerings. Jakob is another example of someone whose only friendship options give the one class change he already has. Some characters got randomly blessed, and some got randomly screwed.

>>
>>738040290
Obligatory armor humiliation ritual. See: Arden.
>>738040469
I think they did consider classes as well as characterization. A lot of characters get exactly what they need, like Rinkah getting Diviner and Orochi geting Oni Chieftain from Rinkah - perfect symbiosis.
Another example is Charlotte getting Wyvern from Beruka and Cavalier from Peri, which are both things she wants. But in general, with such a heavy focus on retainer dynamics and a lot of classes just not being very good, some characters are bound to draw the short stick.

I think they focused entirely on character writing and completely ignored class-changing because I don't know how you end up with multiple characters who get literally nothing otherwise. Some of the ones just happened to be good since there aren't as many classes to choose from as one might imagine.

Benny's problem is that Fighter is just a super common talent among physical, non-royal, first-gen males in Conquest.
His only other potential A+ support partners are Laslow, Odin, and Niles. Odin gives him a bunch of magic shit and I guess Heartseeker, total meme. Niles would give him...Movement +1? Laslow would give him...Merc skills, cool.
There's nothing you can do for him, really. He just has a shit class set and bad stats.
>>

Oh, and I guess Jakob and Kaze could have supported him. Eh, knife classes.
>>
>>738041291
by not understanding inference and implication in english
>>
>>738041303
It's not about whether it'd make him good or not. It clearly wouldn't. It's just that they didn't even bother giving him anything.
>>
>>738040469
What’s wrong? I thought /vfeg/ liked unit identity?
>>
the child personals are too conditional in fates, like nina's +2 dmg when 2 male units are adjacent and paired up is not something that's going to be relevant
>>
>>738041303
Hero Benny from Laslow would be pretty cool as an A+ option. High DEF + Sol.
>>
>>738041380
Anon, what is there to give him though? Maybe Silas would have been the best? Elbow Room...everyone likes that. Again, a lot of overlap with what he already has though.
Maybe the issue is his heart seal option. They should have given him Wyvern or something I guess. He'd be terrible at it, but it's a cope option.
>>738041442
He has Sol already.
>>
>>738041386
Getting shit-all for friendship doesn't increase unit identity. A unit like Jakob especially would be a lot cooler if he had actual male friendships to take advantage of due to the quirks of his internal level.
>>
>>738041394
yeah they really half-assed the child unit's abilities

That Benny, Jakob, etc don't get good identities because the dev team rightly assumed no one would care about them. If they published unit frequencies like 3H did then they'd be at the bottom like Hanneman and Cyril.

Anon, you being an incorrigible gooner does not mean Jakob lacks a distinct unit identity. He has the coveted earlygame class Cavalier, a different stat profile from Felicia, and a kid tied to him. Choosing FCorrin is the only way to pass on skills like Replicate to Dwyer.

Why lie like this? There are women (biowomen) who play the game. Plus not everyone is a self-insertfag. To me the choice between Fcorrin and Mcorrin is a choice between which girl I want to start with, Felicia or Corrin. And also a gameplay choice.

Fates was too ambitious for its own good. It's similar to Three Houses, though the reuse in that game is significantly more egregious. Revelations in particular reuses a ton of maps from Conquest and Birthright, and it has terrible balancing too. I actually don't hate Birthright, it's just inferior to Conquest.
>>
>>738045225
The previous game had a mixed reception: popular among casuals, unpopular among old FE fans. To avoid losing either audience they split Fates into multiple routes with different design philosophies. Birthright is a better version of Awakening while Conquest is the game that old FE fans dreamed of.
The third route is ok.

I've never played Revelations. What about the balancing is bad? Too hard or too easy?

The units are given seemingly at random. So like you're doing a map where all enemies are level 15, but you get Nyx as her base class at like level 4. And they didn't boost her stats. And in some cases, they lower them.
Also, the maps that aren't recycled are all awful gimmick maps. Like waiting on elevators or shoveling snow.

Another thing about Fates is that it has the first 6 chapters as shared between all routes. Excluding Paralogues that means each route has like 23 of its own chapters, shorter than a lot of other FE games, so reusing chapters in what is already a short game is even more unfortunate. You just can't help but think about what if Fates only had two routes with the third route's development time dedicated to them. We could have had like 5 more CQ chapters.

DLC shouldn't be required or even encouraged in a golden route. just stop giving the player under-leveled shitters and let people enjoy their pay-to-play experience.

I'm 100% positive the DLC campaign was designed from the ground floor with the assumption that the vast majority of players who shelled for a third version of the game were already balls deep in the other DLC.

Only matters if you have Forseti. It's really not a big deal.

No, it was designed to make completionists want to buy more DLC. They started that with Awakening.

They fucked up implementing this. One of the reasons I like Arthur with Forseti more is because his lower speed means his avoid is actually low enough for enemies to still attack him. You can just put Seliph in leadership range and it will bring their hit rates to below zero, yet they'll still attack.

>it doesn't need more chapters.
it does though. your top units hit 20/20 like a map or two before endgame, but if there were 5 more chapters you could get eternal seals and have more fun with reclassing, child units, and the non-royals
>>
>>738046212
Absolutely.
>>
>>738046184
Yeah even Forseti Arthur is pretty borderline on matching enemy hit with his avoid so he still gets targetted a lot. It's literally just Forseti Lewyn/Ced that struggle with not getting targetted.
>>
>>738046184
Doesn't make much of a difference unless you're doing ranked runs, I'll kill these 30 Wyverns in 30 turns. Just send Sety in and let them surround him.

not what I said. and conquest is neither long nor cognitively demanding. conquest takes like 12 hours to clear tops.
>>
>>738046265
That is actually one of the issues of Revelation, yeah.
Its selling point is that you get everyone (but Scarlet), but you basically can't use anyone but the royals due to the balancing.

>>738046086
This is why they gave FE5 a hit rate minimum of 1

>>738046284
It's a huge, intense game, like objectively. Stop being a faggot and enjoy it.
>>
>>738046116
more like Rev was rushed and that's why units like Nyx appear at their default level (or just woefully under-leveled in general) despite it being chapter fucking 15

>>738046220
There's like 45 chapters in conquest if you do all the optional stuff. If you do the main story only, it's 28. That's more than enough 'bonus' maps.
>>
>>738046323
it's by no means huge. other games in the genre have way, way longer campaigns. i do enjoy conquest but i'd enjoy it more if i had a little more time to engage with reclassing because the way it works is that you want to get the last skill from 3 different classes, you need to reclass at 11, get skills at 12/13/14/15, reclass, get skills at 16/17/18/19, then reclass and get a final skill at 20. it's extremely tight to make a default/friendship/partner build work.

Maybe you weren't intended to get the last skill from 3 different classes?

>>738046478
Conquest is a solid 20+ hour game on replays if you do even a few child paralogues and interesting builds. Where does this asinine notion come from that longer games = better? One of the problems with Engage and 3H is that they're TOO FUCKING LONG. Just completely padded out with total bullshit.

>>
>>738045807
I don't think the length is a problem, especially since most Conquest paralogues are pretty much full chapters by themselves. By the time you finish the game you're ready to be done. It's not like FE8 where you finish the game with unpromoted healers and half your party at level 4.

why not use an extra seal to get the lvl5 skill early?

>Where does this asinine notion come from that longer games = better?
retarded zoomers unironically think like this
>>
>>738046928
If you're going to end in the class that you started in then you can Seal at level 5 promoted, stay in that class until level 15, go to another class for 4 levels, and then end in your final class at 20 and it doesn't cost you any extra Seals to do so.

It's a non issue. The localizers likely never did that for that one random guy

>>738046959

>>
>>738046994
isn't that the same number of skills though? you need to use an extra seal if you want to pick up an extra skill although resealing earlier does make the timeframe less restrictive until the final 5. i would reseal at 11 because generally the original class is better for units like camilla
>>
>>738047023
Longer game = better game is definitely a newer paradigm, but it doesn't map perfectly on to zoomers exclusively. I've gotten to the point where the prospect of an extremely long game gives me douche chills. They're always padded to fuck with useless fetch quests, cinematic focus, and side content, rather than having a strong core gameplay loop.
Unironically roguelikes and roguelites have the right idea here.
>>
>>738046928
You'll get lvl15 skills at 15, 16, and 17.
If the lvl1/10/5 skills of the class are beneficial it's probably worth reclassing for early benefits.
>>
>>738047184
The usual FE length of ~23-25 chapters hits the perfect spot for me. All the games that are longer/shorter than that just feel off.
>>
>>738047010

Very long(short) games that have good content good.
Very long(short) games padded by shit are bad.
>>
>>738047152
It gets you three level 15 skills without an Eternal Seal. If you need to Heart Seal from and back into your base class then it does not cost you an extra Heart Seal. You would have done all that anyway if you wanted skills from another two classes. Either way you spend 3 Seals. 1 into 1st new class, 1 into 2nd new class, 1 into old class. And sure, you can do it at 11 too.
>>
>>738047314
Once again, very small detail on one specific character. And in battle the camera is swinging around above and behind the characters so you'll never get a good frontal view unless you specifically look for it.
It *shouldn't* have been changed from Harold, but it was. And it's not a problem.
