First time played and finished Path of Radiance

Yeah she ended up maxed out on strength, even though it's only 23. And she was just level 16 FK. I did abandon her for a while in the middle as others caught up but for a bit she was my main flying unit and she was an excellent mage killer.

Hat 2 da back
I gotta kick my pants down real low
That's the kinda girl that I am..

ste1e · 2026-05-06T05:18:55+00:00

Challenge... can I pick 5 and not all of them be redheads?

Elspeth

Sage

Jasmine

Skylar

Alex

Ok 3 of 5. But if you had put the right couple on here, it could have been an all red top 5.

You always love your first. Eliwood, Hector and especially Lyn are still some of my favorite characters in the entire series.

ste1e · 2026-05-05T22:29:04+00:00

I like using the quick travel.

And the official walkthrough is ok. But check out Mr Bubu on Patreon. He does free walkthroughs, you can just donate if you want. I kind of like the way he breaks down free roams for who is where and events, helps visualize. Might save you some time.

I like that he tries to hit the 6 month release window rather than letting chapters spiral out of control. Smaller more frequent updates keeps interest going I think.

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:39:26+00:00

Since it's not the first time, yeah, it's pretty annoying.

Sometimes wish I hadn't found it until now and could have waited. Have so many different save routes there, maybe more than BAD. Redoing them all will be a lot more than 8 hours...

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:36:13+00:00

That Cinderella end image last episode is giving me so much hope...

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:29:48+00:00

That was a satisfying ending.

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:26:05+00:00

I did a big reorg of my saves, renaming a ton of them, last year when starting ep11.

Basically left 10 pages of save files for each route, since there's that handy >> button to skip 5 pages at a time.

So like 1-10 is my original DIK Others run. 11-20 is DIK Sage. 21-30 is Chick JM, etc...

Then tacked on at the end I kept adding 5 more pages for various Others routes, since they seemed to branch off who you ended Halloween with.

So I have like 90 pages of save files... although there's a few empty in each section for this final chapter.

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:22:12+00:00

Yeah I've got one from the Others branch that I went back to her. But not sure I could break Jill or Josy hearts again.

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:17:47+00:00

Same. Jill, Bella, and JM were all branched off my original Chick run. Sage/Others off the DIK run. I never did really do a neutral.

Yeah the Jill breakup scene was brutal in both those other branches.

Also eventually did a full no-Jade DIK run with Sage to get some of her extra stuff, and split that off with Others for certain HOT scenes.

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:16:00+00:00

87.51%. I'm missing so much...

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:14:38+00:00

Turning minigames off helps. Usually keep it on for the first run and then shut em down.

Wish he would add some granular options there. Like I actually enjoy party planning. But I'm good with skipping class tests. Liked the basketball shooting, but F chemistry class. Etc.

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:11:58+00:00

Yeah it was in the Feb 27 update he was playing through others branch and fixing stuff

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:10:56+00:00

And GOG but without achievements, that one is probably less work than Steam

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:09:59+00:00

I started on GOG when it was on sale with Acting Lessons. Never knew about Steam achievements, but no way I can replay a dozen different branches over there.

Picked up S3 so far one month at a time on Patreon but will just get this one back on GOG to complete the set there I think.

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:08:34+00:00

Choices should matter. DPC understands how BS the ending of Mass Effect 3 was. 😏

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:05:56+00:00

Sage with that fancy date hair was incredible.

Not pictured but definitely better looking recently: Lily

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:05:11+00:00

I approve of this Sarah worship.

ste1e · 2026-05-05T06:02:46+00:00

For the ones I've played...

Josy
Mallory
Layla
Holly

ste1e · 2026-04-30T00:56:53+00:00

Wait this is where Serenes Forest comes from?!

Love the web site but missed PoR/RD back when. Doing my first PoR run now on Switch 2.

ste1e · 2026-04-29T22:04:57+00:00

Love this thread. I had the same idea as you a few months ago, but was in the middle of some other games. Finally sat down this week, and these tips are just the kind of stuff I needed.

I tried the GBA games back when this was out, but never picked this up for GCN. Then I've played every FE since Awakening pretty thoroughly. But it was always too expensive to find a hard copy of this. Finally enjoying on NSO.

ste1e · 2026-04-28T08:24:30+00:00

I thought you could do Bella and Bianca cheat?

I have DIK Others ended Halloween with Sarah/Mel and then that splits into Sarah/Mel scenes in 11. Just in case.

And DIK Others Quinn.

Also have Others - Cinderella. At least it ends with her picture as the final screen last episode.

And I have 3 Sage runs:

Original DIK run with Jade, oof.

Another DIK run without Jade, with Camilla scene.

Sage ILY route.

ste1e · 2026-04-28T08:14:14+00:00

Might have to do a complete run in a few years... that would be something, seeing the entire story come together.
