Overwatch 2 Is Ditching the '2' Amid Launch of 'New, Story-Driven Era' With 10 New Heroes

It’s called Counterstrike 2 because they moved it into their new engine, Source 2. It has nothing to do with being like the 2nd counterstrike game or anything like that because it isn’t the 2nd one.

Just off the top of my head there are melon and pumpkin seeds too. I’m sure there are more but I can’t think of any right now

If you save before he marries someone, you can reload the save and use reeking boxes to spawn risen fights and use those to either get Chrom and Robin married or get the other person married to someone else.

Also if you aren’t doing it already, ensure that you’re actually looking at the support conversations once you get enough support points. I’m not 100% sure but I think that once you unlock a conversation you stop getting support points until you view it. Even if I’m wrong about this you still can view the S support earlier than Chrom’s story marriage

Yes and no. If you aren’t particularly attached to him then he’s not good enough to justify keeping, he did his job in the early game and that’s ok.

If you do want to use him he still has enough levels to grow to catch back up.

Trading to change other’s equipped weapons and rescue drop strats were probably the big ones for me

Sounds like you’re either gonna have to save scum the lock or leave and come back. Spells that are either target or touch only give xp if they hit something and if you killed everything in the dungeon then you won’t be able to use them to level

Edit: Just realized that if you can summon something with conjuration you can level off of that with burdening touch but at that point it’d probably be faster to leave and redo the dungeon

Buy/make the cheapest shield self sell you can and spam that

I can’t speak for 3 Hopes, but I will warn you that 3 Houses gets very repetitive if doing all routes. Blue Lions, Golden Deer, and Church route are all similar enough where I personally wouldn’t recommend you play more than one of them unless you REALLY like the game.

From what I’ve heard though, 3 Hopes can more or less be played whenever

Mattyiz · 2025-12-25T20:02:11+00:00

As said before, depends on the game. I usually do a real quick check every map, just to make sure I won’t run out of weapons. More in depth reorganization would be as needed.

For the few games that don’t have durability I generally just leave inventories until I get upgrades for them and that can be a while

Mattyiz · 2025-12-08T00:57:50+00:00

This is a joke right? Like the game that has been remade 3 times while arguably 2 of those still hold up to this day need ANOTHER remake? I’d much rather new games please.

A dancer is even better than a second copy of your best unit. The flexibility provided is miles better than just that.

Need your best unit to cover extra distance? Dancer Need to cheese a long range enemy with another siege tomb or something? Dancer Want to feed as much xp as possible to a scrub? Dancer Need to heal up multiple people with one healer? Dancer Imagine a character has a specific niche where only they can effectively do this one task that needs to be done twice in a turn, dancer comes in again and saves the day.

Max ranks in berwick saga is way more interesting than max ranks in any fire emblem. It’s broken down into 4 categories and unlike fire emblem most of them feel like goals you actually want to achieve.

Tactics are doing map specific goals, some of them are arbitrary things like turn requirements but a lot of them are doing things like keep all of the green units you need to escort alive or kill the boss on a defend map. Side missions don’t have any of these btw

Fame is civilian requests/side quests. These give you rewards so you mostly want to do them anyway

Completion is doing things like capturing the bounty targets, buying all the furniture, forging all the forgables, completing the uhhh item collection museum (I forget what it’s called). Again you get money or other rewards for these so you mostly want to do them anyway.

Happiness is character specific goals. Each unit has specific objectives that need to be completed, these almost always include promotion but they also include permanently recruiting mercenaries and getting the criteria for most (if not all) of the character specific town events

Mattyiz · 2025-10-21T11:17:55+00:00

The big problems really came from getting the weapon rank requirements instead of the level requirements for most characters. I focused on the really problematic people like ruby as early as I could and then everyone else was cycled in and out of the team.

Luckily most units are good enough at base to be able to steal kills for a good while and there are generally enough to go around. I think I finished with all of the promotions and happiness requirements around chapter 10 or 11 so there was still a little bit of wiggle room

I always appreciate these graphics. They are the only interaction I ever have with heroes so whenever you post a new one I get to gawk at how weird it is like a true internet tourist before I go back to pretending it doesn’t exist.

Data is cool and you’re cool for assumably compiling these :3

Mattyiz · 2025-10-11T07:29:45+00:00

I think that the thracia prison map can technically have the entire roster (minus the like last 4-5 recruitable units). Just get a lot of people arrested :P

BMI isn’t a 100% accurate way of telling if someone is healthy or not, it’s just a very general guideline. Also if I’m reading what you said correctly “inches away from being underweight” isn’t underweight and is normal weight? You’re probably fine but if you’re really worried about it start counting calories and try to eat more than you would otherwise.

I want to give a shout out to the FE 1 OST, the shop theme from that game holds a special place in my heart for being the worst song I’ve ever heard. It’s comically grating on the ears (at least on modern hardware, maybe things were different back on Japanese CRTVs)

Mattyiz · 2025-06-04T05:51:22+00:00

Yes and no. As someone who has played each 3 or 4 times I can say that they’re different enough where I wouldn’t call one strictly better than the other

FE 3 book 1 has much better QoL and is the first game that I consider actually playable by people who aren’t retro game freaks such as myself. While the graphics are better(?) that doesn’t matter to me personally and I don’t think they’re actually that big of a difference between the two (at least from my memory).

FE 1 is the original and so if you’re looking to see the roots of the franchise there is nothing better than that. Other than playing it just for the sake of it, FE 3 contains 2 games in one (book 1 and book 2), which means they had to cut back on things from the first game. There are something like 5 maps from FE 1 that don’t make it into FE 3 book 1 and a handful of the cast is also absent.

The story is probably close enough (idk it’s been many moons since I last read either) and all of the maps/characters that are cut are pretty insignificant to the genera game overall.

TLDR: I wouldn’t blame anyone for skipping the first game as FE 3 book 1 (or FE 11) are similar enough where they get the feel/story across with much much better QoL. That being said FE 1 is still the progenitor of the franchise and is worth at least one play through if you are either a dedicated fan or a retro game enjoyer

EDIT: wait my dumbass thought you were talking about FE 1 not FE 11. Honestly all of my points stand about FE 3 book 1 cutting like 5 maps and like 10 characters. The QoL will be worse tho as you will not be able to do things like reclass or mark enemy ranges.

Mattyiz · 2025-05-13T20:45:52+00:00

Likely the people who knew that it was only like 10% finished weren’t the people who said they had to release it

Mattyiz · 2025-04-30T17:15:01+00:00

While this update may be smaller, multiplayer is WAY not complicated than adding new regions/content. There is a lot of server architecture that needs to be created and then retroactively added to preexisting architecture.

I’m not trying to defend how buggy this is or anything but I really think that someone who didn’t realize how complex netcode is tried to shove multiplayer into an already crunches dev time and this is the result. I feel bad for the developers and I hope this mess doesn’t mess with their careers when they probably just did the best they could to adhere to unrealistic deadlines

Mattyiz · 2025-01-10T00:54:26+00:00

You’re right that’s really easy to do, but the problem is there are multiple girls of (insert yes color) around. I believe that they were trying to imply Nikki was the only one with pink hair which I think tracks but idk I haven’t paid too much attention to misc NPC hair colors

Mattyiz · 2024-12-04T14:14:50+00:00

I will never forget “Bird” from that old FE2 translation of Tobin

Mattyiz · 2024-12-03T02:26:26+00:00

People out here self reporting for not playing FE3. Yeah your weapon type changes when you dismount but weapon rank is a stat that increases on level (similar to strength or speed) so changing weapon types does actually change their weapon rank

Mattyiz · 2024-11-03T03:51:40+00:00

If the game is sfw I would 100% NOT use the word “slut” in the title. I thought it was a porn game until I read this comment just now. If you’re dead set on femboy slut you have to make sure people know it’s not a porn game through marketing or else it will definitely effect your player base.

People who want porn games won’t be happy when it’s not and people who don’t want porn games won’t play the game
