If you want to thank Twitch for the Pokémon streams, why are you posting it on some obscure forum?
Perhaps you have a point...

I just love my tadpole buddy
My account is fairly old at this point. That is a fact. But it's also a fact that I don't claim the me that I was back then. I believe that a year has changed me, in many ways better, but in some personal ways for the worse. I know some people might remember me, but I'd rather be treated as someone completely new. I don't see myself coming around very often, but I did just want to make some type of change.

It really is the best thing, it's gotten me way too much happiness

I'm developing an 11 player NOC game, but idk what the etiquette would be with the queue and even if people would sign up?
I'm just starting, so someone tell me if it's a bad idea. It would probably start in August at the very least.
Edit: lol actually i can already tell it would be a bad idea so i'm not sure if i should just trash the concepts i have written or not

my discord is solrocknroll #8723, sometimes I forget to check the site because I'm an idiot, but I'm always available there!

I finish like one game every few months. I collect games I guess lol. I just spread things too thin

Why does it matter if it's FE6. Staff rank is important in every game.
Luck is 100% throwaway. Stefan is the best Swordmaster in PoR and he starts with like 1 luck.
-
Natasha has a lower staff rank, which is the main thing that matters. Maybe Moulder has less luck, but who cares. Luck is basically a throwaway stat to begin with. GBA crits are ridiculously unlikely, and if your healer is getting hit by something you didn't intend for them to, much less crit, you need a better strategy

Ike is gay
Ike is an awful character who is ridiculously unlikable.
Tharja wasn't made to be traditionally "likable"
2RN is good and cool
Ests are awful 95% of the time
-
I prefer 2RN because it's easier to plan around. And also easier in general lol

Alright, I wrote a little thing once.
ike and soren adopt two branded children. one little boy and one little girl. the boy is a mage, and he's very kind, but also a bit of a "crybaby." the little girl is a myrmidon, and she's tough and strong and wants to be strong enough to protect her family. the four of them explore the worlds outside of tellius, and meet lots of interesting new people to share experiences. ike and soren are soft dads who are kind and nuturing parents, and they aren't tough, because they know their kids have been through a lot

I'd be perfectly fine with this. Even the best of generals in reality, those that get idealized, make mistakes somewhere along the line.
Cao Cao is made out as a badass in Dynasty Warriors, but he always has Chibi/Red Cliffs hanging over his head. Frederick II "the Great" of Prussia nearly lost it all on several occasions. Napoleon has Austerlitz, but it's counterbalanced by the Russia invasion. Peter the Great alternated between terrible losses and excellent victories. Washington lost more battles than he won (but he won the war). Grant is well known for his crude arithmetic and willingness to accept heavy losses to win battles. The Allied landing in WWII after D Day's success got bogged down for a time.
It probably would have done Ephraim's character much better if he had suffered terrible losses at Renvall. It would have been a loss owing to his brashness, the same brashness which later gets the Renais Sacred Stone smashed. His route would then gain something from him trying to control his bad behavior having experienced the trauma of Renvall. Seth would be a bit more vocal and critical of Ephraim's choice of actions.
Rigwald would become him not wanting to besiege the invincible fortress because that'd be too slow, but at the same time trying to be cautious in his attack on it. Bethroen would be him wanting to save his mentor, but trying to at the same time trying to keep his forces from being chewed up in the rush to Duessel (I can't see Seth wholly disapproving of the rescue though- the potential of a defection by a Gemstone General would be invaluable for the war effort). Seth could recommend a land approach to southern Grado instead of going by sea given stories of the Phantom Ship, and the actual fight would be a kind of "told you so". Fluorspar's Oath could be a mini lesson for Ephraim of how it feels when others do things without concern for others (because he feels bad when Myrrh suddenly leaves his side). And then we get to Scorched Sands, where Ephraim must put saving his sister ahead of going after Valter- the man responsible for the Renvall slaughter.
Sounds to me like you don't want the main character to succeed ever.
There's a difference between making a few mistakes, like Marth, Roy, or Seliph do, and literally making nothing but mistakes likes you're suggesting.
People love Thracia even though Leif's journey never amounts to anything. It's basically just an endless cycle of him failing. How could anyone really find that interesting?

Bold: Natasha's considered bad? That's news to me.
Natasha is awful. She starts at level 1 three chapters after Moulder arrives and leveling healers in FE8 is incredibly difficult.
also if you seriously say she's better than moulder because of her higher luck then
-
Tharja. I love her character a lot when she isn't being weirdly abusive.
Sothe, Charlotte, Fiona, Wendy, Marisa, and Natasha are all semi-bad units who I really like. I love their designs and personalities.

I'll join this, sure.

It's sexist because you worded it as if it was objective fact. It's fine to prefer femininity on a personal level, but it's sexist to say that it's inherently better on a more objective level. Neither are inherently better than the other.
This is also speaking as a woman who leans very heavily towards things and aspects society considers masculine.
Anyway on topic, I guess I don't have much new to say, but everything listed in the OP is for subjective things and harmless stuff. I do feel you occasionally get a bit too excited and become (perhaps unintentionally) pushy about your opinions, which is what people tend to get annoyed about than actually liking things they don't like. But liking things that aren't popular by itself? No problem. We are people and people are different and we have different tastes. Imagine if everyone had the same tastes? That would be boring.
That wasn't my intention @ forcing it on other people. I forgot to add me saying that was how i feel, because i agree that it isn't an objective fact or anything.

1. WRONG. So very wrong. FE6 is the only one I'm not interested in. I'm DEFINITELY interested in FE4 and 5, and hell I even mentioned that in this thread earlier! Also, PoR and RD count as "older titles" in this case since they came out TEN YEARS AGO.
2. Yes, plenty of people expected Ike to be cut for Chrom because of what happened to Roy in Brawl. I saw plenty of speculative rosters and posts being posted everywhere that included Chrom, but not Ike. Even on SF some people thought Ike wasn't a guarantee at all. There weren't as many people saying Marth would be cut for Lucina, but I definitely saw a few, mainly on Miiverse.
...and...WHAT? Masculine things are always worse than feminine things? What a fucking sexist and messed up thing to say. I'm into a few feminine things like unicorns and stuff, but I like a lot of masculine things too and so do others here, so what you're saying is offensive. And I thought I had to watch what I said. Wow.
EDIT: You know what? This is a good time now to do that walking away thing.
I won't cover the other stuff right now, but how is that sexist? I'm a dude, and i generally think that feminine things are superior 9 times out of 10. Feminine personality traits are overall more appealing to me as a person. I myself consider myself more femme-aligned in the first place.

Um, if you're going to tell other Ike fans that their headcanons and interpretations of him are wrong though, maybe it isn't exactly HIM that you like, but only your own fantasy of him?
What the fuck, I never said or implied this anywhere? I dislike Awakening for the plot holes, the main characters, and the lacking gameplay. NOTHING to do with anyone's opinions on Ike or RD. Get that out of here, please.
I was pointing out your fallacy. Nothing more, nothing less. you can't just say that someone's a "true fan" like that regardless if what you're saying has merit.
Also, I see what you mean, but that isn't the cast @ Chrom and Lucina. You stated that you were annoyed that their fans were trying to get Marth and Ike cut for them first and foremost, and you're then saying that you were annoyed they pretended the older games don't matter.
1. You don't seem to care to play FE6 or the Kaga games, so you technically fall under the definition of "not caring about the older games."
2. No one actually thought that Ike or Marth was getting cut, yet you seem to be caught up on it. I mean, Pokémon fans constantly argue about Pokémon that should be cut, but Jigglypuff fans aren't blaming Greninja fans because Greninja fans would rather have Greninja. That's not how it works.
I personally despise Ike, but it's definitely not due to anything you said. What you say about Ike definitely doesn't help, but masculine things are always worse than femme things. That's why Micaiah, Leif, and Celica are my favorite Lords.
Project Exile patch has very weird results?
in NES and SNES Era
Posted
I applied the patch, and the end result was such that the game is in English, but
- upon clicking New Game, it displays a “k” where the Chapter title should go in the save slot
- the opening narration is broken, with it displaying endless amounts of SSSSSSSSSSS that break the text bar
- the game immediately freezes upon Chapter 1 player phase beginning
can’t find a good result as to why this is happening
