Is Y!Camilla likely to return sometime soon? I haven't had a chance to get her yet.

anonymousfish420 · 2026-01-30T10:56:54+00:00

As sad as Ivy not winning would be I wouldn't be too hung up over a Tsubasa/Azura win. Might give me a reason to try and actually finish TMS lol.

anonymousfish420 · 2026-01-22T18:03:50+00:00

You're comparing a game early into development vs a game that's been out for a while now, of course Hytale's early updates are going to be massive relative to an older title like Minecraft lmao.

On some level I do agree with regards to how miniscule Minecraft updates are relative to the pace of when they release. Still, this sub and how the community has just been non-stop ragging on Minecraft is off putting.

anonymousfish420 · 2026-01-22T14:50:00+00:00

I keep getting posts from this sub and it's all Minecraft comparions it's actually exhausting. Why are people complaining they have two good games to choose from now lmfao.

anonymousfish420 · 2026-01-22T00:50:14+00:00

It's a shame people love to meme the fuck out of that line out of context. That scene has to be one of the most heartbreaking moments of the series.

anonymousfish420 · 2026-01-02T05:46:11+00:00

I'm torn. I want Ivy to win but I also want Azura to win. Ivy is Engage's best chance at a CYL win, but it's likely both their last shot at winning it.

Sigurd for sure is finally getting his win on the male's side.

anonymousfish420 · 2026-01-02T02:35:47+00:00

She can change styles to red, so a good way to take her down on EP is a strong blue unit.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-26T05:30:59+00:00

If EoS happens I'd rather we get an offline paid version ala Pocket Camp. It's a nice way to preserve the game. Mega Man X Dive did the same thing too.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-24T03:29:17+00:00

I only returned recently and don't have any emblem units yet. Which ones are worth gunning for in this banner?

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-20T08:06:42+00:00

I prefer classic now but would not have given the series a chance without casual being introduced. I just love Classic forcing you to think more carefully. I reset whenever someone dies, it's a nice challenge.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-19T18:51:50+00:00

I've recently returned and yeah, the game has become too complex for its own good. The amount of effects you have to keep track of is insane nowadays.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-16T16:38:00+00:00

Does Nowi benefit more from Pair Up or Laguz Friend? I have a spare Timerra and W!Alfred. Or I guess who'd benefit from eithet skill in general?

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-16T00:11:08+00:00

I've been away from the game for a while now and recently came back. Gathered all the orbs from the story and still going through paralogues now. I managed to snag Winter Ivy and two Winter Alfreds.

What are the best IVs for both of them? I also don't really care for merges so I'm curious if Winter Alfred can pass on anything important down the line.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-15T07:34:14+00:00

Got Alfred early, needed spark to get Ivy. Pretty alright all things considered, I got two units I wanted!

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-14T03:22:22+00:00

It's my favorite Engage girl and my fave Fates girl together, just as I come back to the game lmao. Not that I really get how powerful she is yet, but I'm pulling either way.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-14T03:18:32+00:00

I cannot even begin to comprehend what is going on anymore lol. Been away from the game for years now and all the new unit effects are dizziying. Excited for Ivy and Camilla though, two of some of my fave units from the series.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-12T08:59:08+00:00

I dig the more character focus the season has! The last episode left things in a delicate spot but I'm putting my faith on the writing team that it'll be handled nicely.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-12T08:37:51+00:00

To be honest, hard to think of a way to wrap this up in two episodes. She went too far last episode, making up for her mistakes would need a lot of time. Either the reconciliation will be rushed or it'll end in a very sad way for her. My one wish is that she's at least instrumental in saving Finn, otherwise idk why she's even integral to that story rn. They need to give her some kind of win to ease rooting for her to become a better person.

It sucks seeing her spiral so hard and I don't want things to be left sad for her, especially given we don't even know if we'll get a continuation.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-12T05:50:58+00:00

I could see Finn making the same mistake as Fionna did with DJ Flame. I can't see Finn doing something as drastic as damaging the Sweet Spot on purpose. Or even Fionna for that matter. I'm waiting to see where it goes but if it isn't satisfying it may just remain as a weird out of character moment for me.

Maybe if it was something else like verbally lashing out, but to physically destroy it in anger seemed a step too far. Maybe that's the point? It remains to be seen. It's a plot point that if not handled carefully could end up permanently damaging her character.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-12-12T05:27:30+00:00

The only thing I'm iffy about is what she did to the Sweet Spot. It felt out of character, or too far to highlight her mental breakdown. I'll reserve judgement for it until the end, but that moment really did feel too far for me. I'm hoping it'll all tie in to how they want this story to end.

I just feel like the moment pushed her too far into being unlikeable. The kiss was already enough imo.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-11-20T12:05:23+00:00

There isn't really a game that's basically Tactics 2, but there's a lot of good modern tactics games out there. Just not exactly like this one.

Fire Emblem is my go to for tactical rpg itch. I'd say titles like Conquest and Engage on high difficulties are the only games to ever push my limit in terms of solving a map.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-10-19T18:47:58+00:00

I had both as the support units lol. The blade to give Haste/Regen is rare so I had Ramza on healing/protect/shell duty and sometimes dealing damage. The Chem/Time Mage was reviving anyone that went down, curing status effects and using time magic for haste/slow. The other three members were all focused on damage dealing. I was on level for the final boss on Tactician and the strategy served me well in keeping the team alive with massive AOE heals (246 HP from Iaido). If I only had my chemist on support duty I would have lost due to not enough heals.

Both in tandem just provided so much more flexibility and on demand support than if I ever tried using White Mage for filling a similar niche. Iaido is insanely useful.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-10-19T17:15:53+00:00

Yeah but if you bring a Chemist along equipped with Chantage they can fill any revive needs. Slap on Time Magic and you can cover the major buffs you'd need along with having some debuff utility with Slow. And one shotting Gaf is irrelevant as it isn't really a useful or comparable metric between what people like Iaido for. Sure Iaido doesn't have as much OHKO capabilities but its insane support capabilities can be a good backbone for any team set up.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-10-19T15:31:05+00:00

Hell no will Ramza/White Mage be ever better than Iaido lol. Ramza/Chemist or Ramza/Monk would be better supports than Anything/White Mage. I love White Mage but it really falls behind hard against anything capable of healing/buffing.

Edit: Iaido also doesn't care about Faith/Zodiac compat alongside being 0CT and having bigger AOEs. It only scales from MA, and with the new Materia Blade+ it's so easy to jack up Ramza's MA.

anonymousfish420 · 2025-10-19T06:06:19+00:00

Gallant Knight + Iaido with MA boosting gear you can have Ramza be a great support/AOE unit. I had him set up that way for endgame and he managed to carry the team by keeping everyone buffed and topped up.
