I agree that I also am planning on buying some orbs one time, not due to the value proposition in game but because I want to support this game and the FE franchise more generally. As a longtime fan and now real person with a job, Fire Emblem games are actually the only games I still let myself play and no other titles gives me anything close to the same level of satisfaction. Hearing the backstory behind Awakening being the "final fantasy" of FE, I want to do what I can to help ensure there are more games in the future. That being said, it looks lately like the FE title release schedule has become really rapid and it may be, unfortunately, affecting the quality (petting house anyone?). Not that I care about one bad title, but like I'm sure everyone who is on this site, I'm cheering hard for their success for the sake of the titles yet to come.
