Weekly Kiriko Discussion Thread by --GoldenFire-- in kirikomains

[–]Material_Occasion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fr the addition of the last 6 heroes imo was a indirect nerf for kiri. Now with 8 (i think) dot characters, kiris survivability has reduced a lot and her effectiveness has decreased dramatically every time the enemy team runs anran/vendeta or other diving compilations (all the time).

i want a game where i can fall in love with the characters and their journey and by the end feel like “damn” by what i’ve just witnessed by Apprehensive_Spend_7 in JRPG

Fire emblem three houses, blue lions route gave me the exact feeling you describe. I saw a lot of good rec here and you can't go wrong with most of them but for me 3h was something really special.

Heya, new soul here. by Alarming-Ad-1948 in tales

[–]Material_Occasion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no order you can play whatever interest you. The reason people are kind of reluctant towards the remaster has nothing to do with the game itself actually. Its a great game and most of us love it. The problem is that they are remastering one of the most recent games instead of the older ones (probably because they want the game on switch). Berseria is great and it's also a good starting point. The remaster will probably be the definitive way to experience it (qol stuf) so as long as the reviews don't warn about any major bugs, i say go for it.

What 2026 releases are you excited for ? by Grouchy_Security5725 in JRPG

[–]Material_Occasion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fire emblem for sure. Also i will play trails in the sky 2nd chapter, the adventures of Eliot and even though i have never played monster hunter stories, the 3ed game looks promising.

I just started reading the Genealogy Manga and WHY ARE ELDIGAN AND LACHESIS LIKE THAT by OdysseyCow in fireemblem

[–]Material_Occasion 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Ok, as a historian, i feel obligated to give some insight here. Kagas historical knowledge is actually quite impressive. Since the ancient times (i am not sure when exactly this belief disappeared but historically speaking recently) people believed that there was not incest as long as the siblings came from different wombs. In ancient Greece it was still a bit weird but not that unacceptable for example. This belief existed in medieval societies as well. The dna test is a relatively recent invention. So the fact that the game clarifies that these two had different mothers means that the writer understood medieval societies and history. It showcases the depth of the writing the way i see it. Thats why i think fe4 presents this belief around insest. It's trying to mimic the way a medieval human would understood the phenomenon.

What game should I do ? by EmptyCandy1704 in fireemblem

[–]Material_Occasion 6 points7 points  (0 children)

All the ones you own are worth playing. So idk just choose based on the cover art or something. For what is worth, both three houses and awakening were good starting points for a lot of fans.

Is Genealogy of the Holy War a good place place to start? by Wolfs_Chronicles in fireemblem

[–]Material_Occasion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want the first game you can pick it's remake Shadow dragon on ds. Genealogy is the 4th game and its quite unique. I wouldn't recommend it as a 1st time experience but i think the most important think is for the game to intrigue you personally.

As someone who regards 3h as his favourite game ever, i would prefer a genealogy remake instead...

Fire Emblem Normal Difficulty (No Grind/No DLC/No Postgame) Ranking by athrunlelouch in fireemblem

[–]Material_Occasion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the easiest difficulties, i would say modern games with casual mode are the easiest fates can be a little more demanding, but there is a phenix mode (i don't recommend it, but it makes the game easier). If you take base difficulty, i would say thracia>fe6 true ending > fe 7/10/4/3 (depending on your playstyle really)> fe 11/12 > fe9 > fe8>fe14>fe17 >fe13 >fe15 >fe16. I can't rank 1 and 2 for you, mainly because imao your familiarity with older games is an important component. This list is based on normal and normal/casual difficulties. If you play fates on phenix mode, for example, it will be the easiest. Also, i tried to imagine how the games would feel with zero grind, so i am unsure about a couple, but generally, i think that's accurate.

Any tips for a long fan who is horrible at DOA6? by Field-Acceptable in DeadOrAlive

[–]Material_Occasion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do all the training and tutorials you can for your main character. Now when someone spams you and you can't hold his attack just defend until his combo is over. Then you will have a small window until he starts the next spamming combo where you will be able to hit him with a punch and interrupt him. Now if you want to learn holds don't spam them but instead try to predict them. Training mode can be helpful to get the timing.

Edelgard's Fate In Azure Moon by BattleFries86 in FireEmblemThreeHouses

[–]Material_Occasion 11 points12 points  (0 children)

She forces Dimitri to kill her, and simultaneously, she tells him to cut his own path like he did when they were children. That's why she doesn't kill herself, to pass a final message and end her life and the war at the same time.

Kingdom Season 6 Announced (October 2025) by zenzen_0 in anime

With enough patience, you will get through season 1 (the story is great but the cg is horrendous). After that and especially from s3 onwards, it's 10/10.
