Acacia Sgt Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Can't say I remember for sure. I only know Blazing Sword was my first FE... and that's about it for my first time with FE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't say I did. I started with FE7 (an actually good game i haven't played Shadow Dragon all the way through) and read about some basic strategies before getting very into the game. Sounds like you had one heck of a time though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consider also that Shadow Dragon is a remake of the very first game that does very little to update the chapter design (or so I'm told), so the maps were designed by people who effectively had no experience. Mystery of the Emblem is a remake of the third game, and two previous games is a monumental increase in experience with map design as compared to zero previous games.

I really didn't mind SD's lack of graphical insight, nor its kinda dull colours. For me it was the barebones game that came with it. It started out strong and turned into a recipe for disaster. Like at some point, I didn't even care about my units dying as other than the single line they've probably had, there is zero character development that came with them and nothing for me to get attached to or reset the game for.

Ah, my mistake. I meant to say the way the things on the maps had been placed. Enemies, terrain, you know, "level design" but with the chapters. But yeah, the character element presumably got better by then too? I haven't played New Mystery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acacia Sgt Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Personally, I don't mind SD still remained a bit bare-bones. Sure, could've been done more than just an almost straight remake, but having tried SD, I can't say I had a bad experience with it. Then again, these days I'm not overly critical with a lot of things... except perhaps SRW, my passion for it will never diminish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 (edited) It's sad that not everyone can have such a good taste in Fire Emblem games as I do :^) Edited June 20, 2018 by Nobody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it depends on what sort of job I get into once I do. Once classes are done with, there's still a sort of closure period where I have to do like about 600 hours of a work of my choice, related to my career at least. It's basically the school helping us with a transitional period as well. Not that it has to match, or it's a guarantee the place you choose to work at will hire you once you properly graduate, but eh, it's still something... Problem is, I still have no clear idea on what I want to work at/with once I graduate... you'd think after 10 years I'd have chosen something...
