yes, the trailer succeded on it, but by that logic it should have the same level of success than the likes of despicable me 2 or the lego movie, which it doesnt. once the initial hype is over, there must be an explanation regarding the quality of the work so that people keep coming back for so long other than pure marketing strategies. staying at the peak of the box office during four months is something most commercial films cant claim to have achieved.

the first link included my opinion, lol edit: films dont stay in theater for that long if they dont sell, so you got the "7 months of prime time theater" the other way around since it is not the reason why it sold, but rather the consequence of being popular :V the trailer sucked, xD there are other films with a good soundtrack that dont achieve the same level of success, mind you Did Elsa become repaired completely once she sang Let it Go? Does suddenly the part where she breaks down again when Anna tells her that Arendelle is Frozen disappear and falls into despair? Which flaws? Other than some animation mistakes, I dont see narrative flaws. I am not lowering my standards for kids movies, xD.

Congrats, dondon. The effort you put in your playthroughs is surely an inspiration for a lot of players (including me). I cant wait to see your next playthrough. -

Doing my first Girls only run
Xator Nova replied to Marston's topic in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
you really should have focused on vanessa edit: for reference, this was my vanessa in chapter 9 on my girls only run -
ilia is easier go to sacae if you like enemies with 40%-50% avo and 18-22 AS

I was talking to a friend of mine about who the hardest bosses in the series might be, in order to make a Top 10 list or something. Here are some nominees we thought up. - Medeus (FE12 H4) - Hardin (FE12 H4) - Gomer (FE11 H5) - Reynard (FE11 H5) - Canis (FE5) - Reinhardt (FE5) - Henning (FE6 HM) though maybe we need more ideas? anyways, what do you think? who are the hardest bosses you've faced?

more conveyance to know what to do at some points. I mean, stuff like leaving people behind in escape chapters not being available to the player is rather weird. I'm not sure if Awakening support system would work as well in FE5. In fact, the metagame would be very different from the original Thracia 776.

Should FE do more with gods/goddesses?
Xator Nova replied to Dragoncat's topic in General Fire Emblem
religion building could be interesting, as long as it isn't the integral part of the narrative a.k.a. the entire narrative lies on lore rather than actual characterization or development no useable demigods since it breaks the balance from a gameplay perspective. -
The Joker (Batman).

Video FE6 HM 0% growths, with commentary (complete)
Xator Nova replied to dondon151's topic in Fire Emblem: Binding Blade
I think that enemies appearing in the cutscenes affect the RNG, since it's the only thing I've observed that alters the result of the maps when starting from Chapter 1. Not sure if it's true, though. -
The Babadook is the most recent example of a great horror film.
-
well, look at the positive side at least you are now under my proposed turncount
-
I actually took what I assume is LTC and multiplied it x2. So, 2 turns for chapter 25. Thanks, didnt notice. 174 turns total. The proposed Lunatic turncount is ridiculously high, I am aware of that. It is just that it is difficult to look in the perspective of a casual playthrough when one is used to play fast. The funny thing is... that when I posted these turncounts in the Wars of Dragons forums, people there thought it was too fast!

FE4: Has anyone done an all-substitute-characters playthrough?
Xator Nova replied to Luninareph's topic in NES and SNES Era
then there is ridiculous stuff like seliph with perfect inheritance yeah... is it even harder than a normal playthrough? I think that the only difference is the absence of forseti, but otherwise it does not sound different. I mean, the best units are already the fixed ones (seliph, leif, ares). -
this is what I would estimate could be a standard in casual playthroughs... in lunatic prólog: 10 cap. 1: 10 cap. 2: 14 cap. 3: 10 cap. 4: 10 cap. 5: 12 cap. 6: 8 cap. 7: 6 cap. 8: 12 cap. 9: 8 cap. 10: 4 cap. 11: 6 cap. 12: 8 cap. 13: 2 cap. 14: 4 cap. 15: 8 cap. 16: 2 cap. 17: 2 cap. 18: 2 cap. 19: 2 cap. 20: 2 cap. 21: 4 cap. 22: 2 cap. 23: 14 cap. 24: 6 final: 4 Total: 172 turns (before factorizing paralogues) yeah... your turncount in normal is higher than that. o.o edit: you lose way too many turns after chapter 15

Some general tips for Radiant Dawn?
Xator Nova replied to IceBrand's topic in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
isnt the main idea to put all your favoritism onto jill and then watch her stomp stuff? -
where would you rank him on an hypothetical tier list? He is definitely endgame viable, but not optimal.
