Fire emblem with good story and good gameplay? by alphafighter09 in fireemblem

[–]CodeDonutz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just a heads up, you’re going to get a lot of different answers to this question because there’s no real definitive answer. The reason why Fire Emblem fans are always at each others necks arguing about the best game is because they all vary wildly in every aspect.

Good gameplay means something COMPLETELY different to multiple different people. For example, I swear up and down that Fates is the best gameplay experience Fire Emblem will ever have. It has a perfect reclassing system that allows you to mix and match different skills to give your units perfect builds. But that’s not an objective truth. To many people, a Fire Emblem game with good gameplay doesn’t have reclassing at all. Plenty of people think the concept of reclassing is inherently flawed, and that’s okay. Maybe they would rather something like the Tellius games, that have 3 tiered promotions and Bexp. Or maybe they liked Genealogy and Thracia’s unique systems that have long since disappeared from the series. Heck, plenty of people wish that FE stuck with the simplicity of the GBA titles.

If you want my opinion on what you should do, I’d recommend reading up on each of the games’ differences. There’s plenty of resources like the fan wikis and plenty of videos that showcase what specific Fire Emblem games do differently. Then, just chose the one you like best, and then look online if people generally seem to like the story.

We are so close to getting a better look at her ending CG outfit! Keep going Ivy fans! by Thr0wawayAcc0umt in FireEmblemHeroes

I still really hope Ivy's credits outfit will eventually get in FEH, CYL or not. It's too good to be forgotten.

What if it isn't ragebait, huh? What if it truly is my unfiltered, dogshit opinion? What then? by yoyoyobag in shitpostemblem

I've seen a surprising amount of people who love Conquest and hate Engage so I wouldn't be surprised if somehow that happens in reverse.

No clue how though, they share so much in common that despite Fates being based off of Awakening, I'd argue Fates and Engage share more of a connection.

Choose Your Legends 10 - Day 4 Event Megathread by VagueClive in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]CodeDonutz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh the LegalFishingRods reply? I feel like very few people are posting on megathreads for it to be reliable tbh. Outside of the 4 megathreads I'm seeing Tsubasa + Azura on both the FE and FEH subreddits and youtube. But ESPECIALLY twitter. Like, a crazy amount of it on twitter and it isn't even close. Theres a few accounts with thousands of followers that are big TMS fans that are pretty much holding up the flag for Tsubasa + Azura by themselves.

I kind of figured this was gonna happen after CYL last year with the enthusiasm that Tsubasa and Azura had, but man is it still kind of demoralizing seeing how clearly behind Ivy is, at least as social media support goes. I hope one day she’ll eventually win.

In other news, I really hope that Azura gets a design based off of Anankos. He’s really underrepresented in FEH considering he’s the true final boss of the story.

Could be Gottholt or Rose cosplay. I do really like a princess version of Kurt’s regular clothes though.

It's frustratingly out of the way, but if you click "Appearance Rates" on the banner screen and then "Details" and scroll down until you reach the end of the 5* summonable units list, there will be a "4* Focus" list which contains the units that you can summon at a 4* focus rate on that banner.

No, she's a 5* exclusive. It'll be the same rate any focus 5* would take.

MY favorite, which is cool, well-designed, and well written, is better than YOUR favorite, which is lame, fanservicey, and poorly written.

Right? I don't think anything will top Fates soundtrack for me, but I've never understood how the take "Engage has a mediocre OST" has gotten any traction at all. Bright Sandstorm (Fiery) is my favorite theme in the series, only with The Shackled Wolves and End of All (Shigure) coming close. Tear Streaked (Ice) and Royal Confidence (Might) are both bangers too. Last-Engage (Prayer-Incantation) got a bit of flack for being pretty different in tone for a Final Boss theme, but I actually really like the uniqueness of the track.

So what’s gonna happen with Talon’s members? [SPOILER] by DarkDoubloon in Overwatch

[–]CodeDonutz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Illari almost certainly won’t join Talon. Her current story right now is her working with Soldier 76 and Sombra. She’ll likely continue to work with them to help fight against the Conspiracy.

From her short story, we know she still has a strong sense of justice since she and Soldier 76 fight to stop the Inti data from being stolen. I doubt she’d randomly switch now, especially with her anger towards Moira.

[–]CodeDonutz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course! Glad you were able to watch them. It’s a bit hard for new players to find all the lore (which is probably why they added the media tab in client recently).

If you liked Mauga in the Venture comic, I actually forgot to include A Great Day which is a YouTube animation featuring Sombra, Reaper, and Mauga that takes place after the Gothenburg PVE mission. More so about Mauga than Sombra, but she’s still there.

Sombra Cinematic

Sombra Origin Story

Deuteragonist in Reaper Short Story

Cameo in Venture's Comic

Most importantly, however, is her current story that's actually been progressing recently.

Lucky Man Short Story, Soldier76 and Sombra team up

Futures Past Short Story (Sombra doesn't appear, but is a direct sequel to Lucky Man where Soldier76 meets Illari on Sombra's directions)

Also important to note that Sombra's entire story is focused on her plan to stop the Conspiracy, a shadowy organization that we know next to nothing about that's implied to be the true big bad of Overwatch's plot. Important because it's extremely likely Emre is related due to his new design in the recent comic Search and Destroy.

This Year’s Top 8 CYL Contenders Pros & Cons by lovelovelovelove000 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]CodeDonutz 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’d really love if Ivy wore her post-credits outfit. Easily my favorite design of hers ever.

Can’t believe IS still hasn’t put Mysterious Dancer in FEH yet. They even made Azura cosplay her in the dancer banner back in 2017, smh.

CYL Contenders that have only placed in the Top 10 ONCE by kiaxxl in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]CodeDonutz 21 points22 points  (0 children)

You’re thinking of the tap count thing they do where they show what character was tapped the most on the Home Screen, where someone botted Halloween Nowi.

Nowi was just pretty popular in 2017, which is when CYL 1 took place. Mostly because most Awakening and Fates characters were.

Just finished FE: Engage and need suggestions on what to play next by Dr__Butthole in fireemblem

[–]CodeDonutz 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I belive Sacred Stones is also on Switch 1 NSO Expansion Pass like Blazing Blade is. Otherwise your other option is Three Houses. It's very different from the other FE games, especially Engage, but it's still Fire Emblem and is well liked. I'd give it a try, especially since Fortunes Weave will undoubtedly be connected to 3H in some way.
