Thats what I am using. PPf-o-Matic30 is the name. Any other avenues I might have messed up to cause this?
-
Got you psyduck. I regret scroll abusing, Shiva and Olwen (I think) destroyed him the old fashion way but I do feel as if I cheated. He was a cake walk for me w/o berserker or status ailments. The moment a new patch comes in ama replay it w/o scroll abusing.
-
atleast you can do iron man. I was to much of a bitch to go throw with it in FE6 HM when Lilina dead. Good luck.
-
Save button negates the point of the challenge tbh. Same thing with save states so yea. Idc what you do in your own spare time. Not gonna take the dildo out of your hands but lets not beat around the bush.
-
It got out of hand because I am not used to a community that is so thin skinned that would get trigger over some one saying that its rather casual if you cant handle difficulty or something I forgot my original quote. And I never said thracia was perfect but alot of the complaints are down right not an issue. And I love it when people say you need to respect others opinions. I have stated many times to lets agree to disagree so I dont get that point. Also not once did I replay to a poster saying they did not like thracia and try to convenience them to like it. It was to posters who said, thracia sucks because of x y and z and telling them x y and z arent a big deal.
-
Nah thats you and others projecting tbh. Ill be the first to say I suck at FE. My score in Thracia was god awful. And only 5 units lived the first time I played FE6 on normal. And you said that fathers and sons was challenging and that chapter was easy even on hard with no grinding. You can call me a casual thats fine. I just dont get what kind of community gets all triggered one somebody calls another a casual for playing on, casual mode. Or plays a game on easy, or complains and wants difficulty to be downgraded etc. And also not to back peddle but its been a while since I played PoR. So maybe I got gud by that time.
-
The difference is I dont care enough to point it out. And no I dont think I have't. And I dont care either but lets not beat around the bush now. If you play games on easy mode, you are a casual. And it seems to be true if people get all high and mighty when some one calls some one else a casual.
-
I mean you were being a smart ass by typing "LOL" and giving an example that is not comparable. And honestly Its not a big deal dude move on. And its also because you missed my point about the gaiden chapters in SD. It goes against FE type of game play. Iron man does not. The fact that you can skip them is ok. But What I was going on about is that how to unlock them GOES AGAINST FE. If you want to unlock them kill of your units that you dont use. Thats what I did because I was curious about the maps. And I wanted more bang for my buck. I kept 15 great units and killed the rest. In a FE game I should not be actively trying to play bad to unlock them. I know its meant to help up new players but it should not do that by rewarding bad play which goes against FE and really any game. No game should reward you for bad play. Its the idea that annoys. Not so much the maps themselves like you and 24x. Seriously is this forum just filled with a bunch of paper thin skinned vaginas? Any other community I could say, if you play games on easy you are a casual without being called an elitist. This really is new to me. If you play NM or Awaking on Casual or god forbid, phoenix mode in fates you are a casual bite me.
-
Thats the thing, the game should not reward you for that. Those characters, the pre pomotes like Nimme and yodel in FE6 exist for those reasons.
-
No I meant that, in FE you, the player, shouldt want to kill your units. You actively try to keep them alive. Only for SD to make it that, if you want to have all the content, you have to kill off units instead of beating a chapter withen x turns OR keeping a unit alive. When you Iron, you still try to keep them alive you smart ass. It does not go against FE at all since, you still care for your units instead of sending of "useless" ones out to die to unlock a chapter. You missed my point completely. That example is competently different.
-
They are skippable sure but they reword you for playing bad which is what I dont like in video games. They incentive's you to kill of your units which is odd in a FE game. In FE you WANT your units to live, you shouldt wanna to kill them off. Its not just that they are dumb, its that they go AGAINST FE principles. Also honestly it being ugly as fucking sin is a bigger reason. SNES and GBA FE games looked better. NES games looked better what happend IS? Basic difficulty is when you make things tougher yes, but if you make it tougher by artificially inflating the states to an absurd amount and add no new moves/enemy placement/reinforcement etc, then it became artificial.
-
So I followed the steps and when I use epsxe 2.05 (followed the steps you linked as well) to boot up the game, its all black. and does not play any sound or anything. Where did I goof up? And is this the place to ask these kind of questions or should I make a thread?
-
Everything you mentioned is not artificial. Artificial difficulty is a term used when describing a game thats difficulty is based around higher numbers and thats it. Ex: Normal mode has random dude with 5hp, hard mode has the dude at 50hp or something to that effect. (Ever since dark souls came out people have been using that term incorrectly I swear). Its pretty much just numbers and everything you mentioned has nothing to do with numbers other then Guaranteed hit and miss (by one) and heals can miss which, like is really not a big deal. Fatigue teaches you to resource your units as you would items, leaf having to ascape makes escape maps, actually escape maps since before and after its more of a seize the throne. Every should make it out first before the chapter ends. Warp tiles suck but are miss able/skip able so whatever. No guaranteed hit and miss sucks though but its by 1%. unless you just walk by a black cat, under stairs inside a house with an umbralla and broke a mirror, you wont be noticing that much. Honestly, maybe because I was scroll abusing Karrin, I never felt Ballistats were any more scary in FE5 then other games in which they kill instead of just damage (fuck you conquest). I find them more scary in FE6 because some of them can crit (Killer baliisatas really IS?)
-
False just false. The one thing you might have to look up is what do scrolls do since, translation error but other then that not really. Yea there are some bullshit maps that everyone says are a bit bullshiti but every FE games has a bad map or two. We aught to look at the game as a whole, the sum of its parts. And yea the capture mechanic needs to come back and is one of the many reasons why I loved Thracia. Like, I cant wait until it gets a new/better translation because I wanna mug people again. Hopefully in the remake, since EVERYONE loves Rienheart because of the gacha game, they make him recruitable if you capture him or something, like Shiva. And have some crazy elaborate way to make him join like Michilies in NM.
-
And actually I did try hard 5 in SD when I first played it and I thought it was weird that my units got doubled so early in the game so that led me to assume it was like awakenings lunatic/+
-
Ghost ship is the only map in FE8 hard mode that gave me any trouble and I recently played/beaten Ephraim hard mode. I have not beaten FE9 on hard, and I dont think I can say anything on FE9 hard mode since I did not finish yet, but on Normal SS Erikia's route (only normal I played) none of the maps, really stuck me as hard) But as for father and son, really? I thought that was a really easy map. Like I said even with no grinding, on hard mode only Ghost ship gave me any troubles on Ephraims on hard. Everything else was a cake walk. The map to defend in PoR and getting the hungry mage was harder then that for me and that was still easy. And I thought Lunatic of NM was like Lunatic/+ of awakening so I just tried on hard. Ill try it one day. Still need to finish TRS, and Hard mode FE9 and Hector hard mode. in that order first. And yea sorry It was't clear if you were talking about difficulty or being better. But I find it a bit unfair to compare the two in terms of difficulty since, thracia only has one standard difficulty and NM has 3 or 4 I forgot and SD has 5. Unless you count elite mode but thats for pussys.
-
I praised PoR for its mechanics and its not the easiest game in the series, that goes to SS. If I had to I would say it had a decent challenge level. Shadow dragon is not underrated its rather meh. With it being ugly as sin and the requirements for gaiden chapters being so ass backwards. Its underwhelming in my eyes. And yea H5 and Lunatic NM is hard but rather artificial with inflated states. Reminded me of Lunatic + of awakening. But that is neither here no there. And no I dont disregard everything new. I praised Conquests maps did I not? But yea I started with awakening and found older games much better. I would go out and say awakening might be the weakest. what does that have to do with anything (Top 4 would be FE4,5,6 and 9) Also New mystery, better then Thracia? You kidding me dude? MU trivializes the game unless you are playing and also steals alot of the spotlight from marth. It begin the cancer that is MU, removed weapon weight. Other then the gaiden maps, which were really really small, every map was just seized. Or are you talking about the difficulty? In that case which one? Hard I think it was is what most people considered the best way to play it that was still very easy.
-
I never dismissed people who say they like easy games though and maybe if you read the thread instead of just jumping on a bandwaging you would have seen I have said, many times lets agree to disagree. And yea I dont like easy games and I find them pointless I dont see how this is a bad thing? And I never acted like my opinion meant more then some one elses because I play/like harder games though? Its probably the game with one of the best map designs in FE. Lots of incentives to hurry you up, challenge, and very memorable. My favorite is the one where Leif fucked up and disobeyed augustest orders, leaving his army decimated and he has to run back, and the map right after where he has to defense his town. Both amazing maps.
-
Wow I forgot about those hit rates. If they were to remake Thracia, echoes style I think that would need to be fixed. I know what the devs were trying to go for, that nothing is ever guaranteed. Like how in Xcom you can miss at 100%, but that is bullshit. The fatiuge system should let you know how much or many more actions you will be until you get fatigue. Kinda Like how they did in echoes. Being un able to do chapter 24x because of Sara being fatigue was lame. Atleast I could easily escape out of there. How the fuck am I an elitist? In all my years of talking about video games online never have I been called an elitist. Is this a serenes forest kinda of thing?
-
Pretty sure I said I did not choose the path that had 16b before and I skipped 24x becuase The girl that was needed to heal Ethyln with the Kia staff (Sara) was fatigued so I just ran away. And dismounting hurting units is a bs arguments since, you can easily train them to git gud with swords. It was never an issue for me. I dont like it but saying it hurts good units is a bit much if the fix is easy. (HELLO ELITE SWORD) And I did say healing being able to miss sucks but if you get your staff users to have a skill of just 10, which is easy, its a non issue. And I rather have a game with maps with nothing going on SOMETIMES then a game with maps that are just a 21x28 grind with a jpeg of roots.
-
I never said I did not accept nor respect that? Many times I said lets agree to disagree? And I did say I understand peoples isues with FE4 maps. Its the issues with healing staves and skipable maps that I find silly. Well I did not just ONLY say git gud. I also mentioned how it was meant to be an incentive.
-
It was from a bug in the original and the team thought it was funny that they added it in as a feature. I thought it was funny too since there was no need to loop around since dread fighters and Milla's turn wheel made the game a cake walk
-
And THIS statement stinks of casual. Two can play at this game, but its a very boring game and adds nothing. Am honestly trying to think of an easy game that I enjoyed by myself and the closest thing was SoV for the writing and music but thats it. And SNES SMT for the atmosphere and world building.
-
This statement is fucking cringy as hell but hey if you like easy games that dont challenge you in away way shape or form and you can just breeze right on through it then w.e dude.

I just want a villain that is less Saturday mourning and more Funny valentine/Arvis. A man with goals more then to be evil for the sake of evil.
