TheEmblem Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 (edited) So I finally got the money to buy it and already did super excited for it. However since its been out for a few weeks I have one simple question, to those who have already played and beaten it. Is it a legit faithful remake, or did I just purchase another "Shadow dragon".

It is a very faithful remake. A bit too faithful if you ask me, I like Fe11 and Fe12 better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armagon Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 It's very faithful but i wouldn't say it's another Shadow Dragon. There's enough things in Echoes to where it actually feels like a new game. And unlike Shadow Dragon, this game actually has Support Convos, so you can actually care about the characters. The game's artwork is also gorgeous.

Slumber Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 It's a faithful remake in the ways that matter, and expands in areas that needed the most improvement. When I type that out, it more or less is the opposite of SD, which improved in ways that didn't need to be improved, and neglected the areas that absolutely should have been modernized.

Pikappa93 Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 I completely agree with Slumber, very faithful to Gaiden but not a Shadow Dragon at all. It's personally one of the best FE I ever played. Full voice acting also is gorgeous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SavageVolug Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I have finished the game, and I have played a little of Gaiden. Now of what I've played in Gaiden Echoes does stay pretty true to Gaiden which I'm glad of. However there have still been some changes. For example (only game mechanic examples here not story) the range of the warp spell has been nerfed and when archers are first introduced you can kill him within a single round of the player phase. Whereas in Gaiden this took a few turns to just reach the darn archer not to mention killing him. I think it's a good remake and I think you'll have a blast playing it.
