E.v.o.l.

I try to get as many Trophies/Achievments as possible, but I'm not some gaming master and most games tend to have 'that one trophy' that requires a really hard mode completion or something so I'm usually the quitter. I've only done a Platinum on MGS:3 Snake Eater HD and that one is ridiculously easy to do as it is completed fastest all on Very Easy with a slight bit of save-scumming. Oh and Festival of Blood, but that's even easier. Only game that I've tried to complete everything on without the online-profile-adornments incentive is Smash Bros. Melee. All dem trophies you can catch and then pose 'n' stuff. Still ain't close to done with that yet.

Started with Smash Bros. and a short while after that was when I found a copy of FE7 (and figured I should still get it even though there was no Roy or Marth to be seen). Near the end of my second playthrough I decided to 'trade' it for a copy of Sacred Stones with a dude in my class, but I ended up with 0 FE games at the end of that day's shuffle (It turned out that we were both planning to end up with both games at the end of the day and I guess he won. Dunno how he did it to this day...) Game theft (participating and ending up a victim of it) was a large part of my childhood tbh. Missed the PoR train, but bought RD and felt sorta lukewarm about it. Shadow Dragon was cool at launch. Awakening is the best that I've played since that GBA game though.

My first file logs 100+ hours and my second probably won't be much different because I'm an obsessive nut who doesn't know when to quit leveling a character and move the heck on.

Lucina's look is pretty good and classic. I liked Flavia's red armor and hairstyle, rar! Tiki isn't bad. Cherche wasn't sore on the eyes, her Wyvern headgear and pink hair gave her a look that was quite reminiscent of an anime robot girl. Dude-wise? Chrom, Lon'qu, Gerome, and I dug Walhart's giant hulking Conqueror look. That's just off the top of my head.

Hello to the site that kept me sane with it's class guides and stat charts! I just wanna say that my nick is the name of a new song from a singer I like (Marina and the Diamonds), but I'm cool with being called Alex as well. I kinda picked this nick on the spot since I decided I didn't want to fly my usual banner in new territory, but eh whatever. I'm 19, M, an avid gamer, my music tastes are all over the place (I'll listen to most anything at least once), kinda grumpy-ish, but friendly enough. My other hugely loved games are Metal Gear (Snake Eater) and Final Fantasy (VI & XIII). I'm currently on a second Normal/Classic run of Awakening and I have played FF7, a bit of Radiant Dawn and maybe half of Shadow Dragon. Awakening is pretty great, but the fact that I'm drawn to unnecessary grinding like a moth to a flame often makes my games turn rather unbalanced by the halfway mark. I really should play Hard mode, but I haven't yet. Tried Lunatic though and was horrified, traumatized, and other things that end in -ied. Never again. Oy, I never said I was good at games! I just own a ton and play them a fairish bit. I think I'll mostly be here speaking on opinion topics about the characters and general chatting rather than helping with great strategies and such. Thanks for having me!
