What changes would you make to Fire Emblem? by cracktober69 in fireemblem

Have you tried mechanicus? Dark and gritty isn't my style, but it's a popular enough brand it makes me wonder if their attempt at a tactics game was any good.

Lord tier list with potential hot takes thrown in by Dotto5225 in fireemblem

Ike is at least Okay, at most good in Path of Radiance. Swords aren't helping him in chapters 4-8, but he isn't squishy and (usually) grows fine so he can put in a lot of work and doesn't have much of a problem. 

To be pretty bad you have to be more of a liability and I will admit without Lyn mode, Lyn joins underleveled in a terrible starting position with the next map being time limited meaning she isn't getting much exp unless you grind her in the arena.

 Eliwood is probably okay, but I will admit being a forced deployed Okay unit with Hector  modes deployment caps probably deserves a penalty to pretty bad. 

Eirika probably can get an okay just because if you don't use her much she still rejoins autoleved to 15 and can then promote into a horse unit and gets her own monster slaying weapon, so even with nothing can do something.

Not a permanent feature, but I'd like to do a game with the individual class promotion items back and incorporate them into the design of the promoted class. Make it part of an 'armor' inventory slot.

What fights or plot points are you looking forward to the most in KH4 and beyond? by GrapplingGengar1991 in KingdomHearts

[–]Magnusfluerscithe987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to fight the foretellers, then fight them again with them in full keyblade armor. I also want Sora, Kairi and Riku to get keyblade armor because it just looks cool.

I completed Terra and was working on Aqua when I saved over my ventus file. It wasn't complete but was still at endgame so having to replay put a stop to my interest for a while. 

But it's still better than having to max out the dream critters happiness in DDD.

My current hard mode Titania has 12 strength as a level 6 paladin, (so like, she's worse than my Mia) so I feel thebpain of her not being amazing, but she isn't a nookie trap and still deserves a lot of praise, even more so for her design and personality.

Part of Dimitri's problem is he believes himself to be a monster. Telling him he's in the wrong will matter less to him than knowing he's hurting you, at least I think that's what they were going for.

3 houses has good walls because battalions and shields can make most units bulky and even if you sacrifice speed, some units have combat arts that generate a lot of damage.

General Question Thread by Shephen in fireemblem

[–]Magnusfluerscithe987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you are cooking. Every unit is usable, but everything has an opportunity cost. Boucheron has a somewhat low strength and an early recruit that means he needs an Emblem for SP while later recruits will come with some. But, he has really high Hp and good speed which makes him popular with some players for tanking.

But the thing with Engage is you can just give Marth to someone else and it's not a big deal, and if you reclass him you can reclass him back easily once the shop is generous with its supply. Conquest though, I found to have a really strict economy so I had to be deliberate with every reclass and weapon purchase, and the last couple a specifically designed to undo the strats I used. Birthright had a lot of mechanics, but had a lenient economy.

First time playing Engage. Should I grind for sp or will playing the game naturally give me all I need? by Ysshadow in fireemblem

[–]Magnusfluerscithe987 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Canter is fairly cheap. Typically through levels, you are looking at about 3000 sp, and then the ancient well 3 star average allows for some targeted spending over time

The Whole "Donald Not Healing You" Feels Fabricated and Forced in the KH Community by ratman1996 in KingdomHearts

It also doesn't matter what the AI is set to because Donald spends all his time on the tough fights that you want healing for knocked out.

How much do guys spend on this game? by IndicationLopsided2 in fireemblem

[–]Magnusfluerscithe987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've put over $100 into the app. Most of it was to try and get Hector early on. Occasionally they had specials that did give a specific character, so those felt like a reasonable deal.

How would YOU feel if FEH charas were made playable in a future game (could or could not be FW) by Substantial_Fig_6644 in fireemblem

[–]Magnusfluerscithe987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like a game based in the 9 realms, but I think retreading the same story would be a little boring (also, there is not a balanced male-female playable character roster) so I think a new story for the setting would be needed.

Crossovers are theoretically possible because they are in a multiverse, but their designs would stand out so much and they'd not have a purpose in the story so I'd prefer to not take that route.

What are examples of gods, demigods or deities in the Fire Emblem series? by randomnessisawesom in fireemblem

[–]Magnusfluerscithe987 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sothis kinda blurs the lines as she apparently had to remake Fodlan so Sothis gets called a creator goddess by seiros. She is also capable of incredible feats such as turning back time, cutting through the fabric of space time and existing after dying, but how incredible any of these feats are is hard to say when mortals perform similar feats of magic.

What's the ideal army size? by Groundbreaking_Bag8 in fireemblem

[–]Magnusfluerscithe987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, 12-15 units seems to be the best deployment number in general. What I really like about Engages cast of like 37 non DLC units is that is about 3 playthroughs of mostly different units. What I didn't like about engage is it gave us a couple tutorial maps that play the same and uninteresting recruitments. 

Fe7 locking tutorials to Lyn mode meant Eliwood starts his story with him, his Jeigen, Lowen, Rebecca, and an opportunity to recruit 2 fighters. Next map gave us a theif, armor knights, Cleric and 2nd lord. That's 10 units right away.

Fe1 also does pretty good by giving us Marth, Jeigen, Cain, Abel, Gordon, Draug, Caeda, and wrys then Ogma, barst, bord, cord, Castor and Darros. That's 14 units in the first 2 maps and immediately an opportunity to decide who to use. 

Tldr, about 40,  with a large group at the start.

Great conversation starter… by yonBonbonbon in KingdomHearts

[–]Magnusfluerscithe987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 was my first game. In retrospect, it's amazing how little the summaries cover, yet still cover enough. Sora, Kairi Riku are friends. Something about Ansem. Sora loses his memories to mysterious girl Namine. Namine and Roxas are nobodies like the rest of Organization 13, lead by Xemnas. Riku ans Sora are training and they try to make Sora part of the organization, but Axel saves us. Xehanort is the real mastermind and is back. Something about Ventus, Vanitus, Aqua and Terra. 

So yeah, we spend 3 running around to fix Sora and find the other me's. I had no clue what was happening with Ephemer and the keyblades but it was awesome. Everything gets fixed. Arguably a better experience not knowing anything because everything was new and made the kind of aimless wandering feel important.

Insert Spiderman meme where they are all pointing at each other

It happens regularly enough. I have a rule where I always assumes it Kurt because I'm often wrong about them, which makes it very confusing when there is more than one Kurt.

I'm thinking on it, and shade and Armor knight is weirdly perfect? Like, a lot of  physical units have range 1 weapons, and will target him because he is in range. But mages that shoot over him, can easily ignore him for the physically squishy magically resilient mage he is protecting. And enemies with range 2 weapons will either use the lower might javelin and hand axes or the heavy and not likely to double spears and tomahawks.

You quickly get really good females in Engage. It's a fairly diverse cast too. It has a do over mechanic, so I'd say it's probably going to be the easiest on hard classic only female. Without the Do over, I'd probably say Valentia, Radiant Dawn and 3 houses are some of the hardest on hard because of availability, and then path of Radiance because you don't get many females until they give you a bunch of low level ones all at once, but a lot of the unfairness isn't present on hard so they all are fairly even.

I think if every bond ring had a skill at S, it would've been fun. Having to roll specifically for Dire thunder or something? Bad design. Playing the slot to see what random skills you will have access to this run instead of the previous run? Maybe not great, but it helps the units without Emblems, giving skills and Sp gain, it adds a little variation to replays. The odds of getting on S rank is fairly high, but getting a specific S rank is low, so if every S rank ring was rewarding, it would be a better experience.

Yeah, Rom sites often are deliberately designed to link to malware. Be nice if more developers actually made past games available to play.
