  1. Oh that's interesting! I'll see if I can give it a try this week. Thank you!
  2. Despite my best efforts Fire Emblem is my favourite series. But I've always been keen on the Final Fantasy and Valkyria Chronicles series (series...es?). It's not make or break for me, but I think I like games with lots of characters but not so many I lose track of who they all are. In these games I feel like I'm going on an adventure with people. Like vanguard333 I've fallen away from Pokemon for various reasons, though I did enjoy Arceus. The Zelda series is nostalgic. Unfortunately I get bored near the end of most of them. If Link had more character I think I would get back into them? Then again I had fun with Elden Ring. Maybe I judge Zelda more harshly than I should.
  3. Sorry, I realise this thread is for impressions, but about how long does the demo take to play through? I wasn't planning on trying the demo but I'm thinking maybe I should give it a shot after all.
  4. You might not remember me but I thought you were pretty great. Please continue.

  5. I haven't, but I'll do a search! It sounds like another fun way to shake things up. I think that's most what I'm looking for. I want to enjoy replaying these games. And I don't want to steamroll my way with teams or strategies I'm used to.
  6. Thanks for digging these up. I'll have a look!
  7. All Sophia's sounds hilarious. I'm definitely putting that on the list! Thanks also for the Lunatic mode link. It looks a bit much for me right now. I'll keep it bookmarked for the future! Your point about no a shops run makes sense. Have you had the chance to try one before?
  8. I appreciate you taking the time to elaborate. With everything you mentioned FE6 does sound more lenient. I love FE7 and I want to give it a go sometime. But I think I'll use this as an excuse to return to FE6 first. Thank you!
  9. Thank you for your ideas! This is exactly what I was looking for. All of these will probably keep me going for a year and I'm excited to try them out! Thanks everyone! @ping For your XP rank challenge, is there a big concern about running out of unpromoted units? Or maybe balancing your team usage to last the run is just part of the challenge? @Eltosian Kadath I would have expected FE6 to be the hardest. What makes FE7 harder to Ironman than the others?
  10. I've gotten into low-key challenge runs with other games. I was thinking of doing some with the Fire Emblem GBA titles. Does anyone have ideas? I did an Eliwood & Marcus only run about 100 years ago. I remember some people would do no-exp runs. Is that easy to set up? I haven't put much thought into it yet, but some ideas I considered are: No-exp No promoted units No buying weapons No healing I'm not looking to punish myself; just breathe some life back into the games a little. Like a Nuzlocke I guess.

    Hey! Write back if you get this. We gotta catch up sometime.

  12. I think that's just the modern shiny anime aesthetic which is pretty common. Some of the designs aren't particularly inspired, but others are pretty unique.
  13. Why are you studying accounting? What did you enjoy about economics? Would switching to something else (economics?) close or open any doors for you? If you can't answer those, Rapier made great suggestions on how to go about some research. Personally I'd solicit thoughts from accounting and economics majors on Facebook or Reddit. Ask what they studied, what their work entails, and if they wish they'd done things differently. You'll find lots of people would jump at the chance to share their story and offer advice. You only need a few replies to get an idea of where each major might take your life and career and how those might jive with your talents. That's at least what I wish I had thought to do. My career guidance was useless, the pre-requisites seemed irrelevant, and I lacked the experience and imagination to picture what jobs I could get. In my case I switched majors when I shouldn't have, but you shouldn't bias yourself toward you original choice if you have other good options.
  14. Somehow I'm not surprised this thread is still active.
