So, like...I can't say what thread to post in, man. Maybe it's this one, maybe its the one in concepts, it's whatever dude, you gotta as Von or Joshii or som'in, because, like, my answer is just an illusion man. People have asked for their character to have, like, certain names and classes and reclasses and personalities and stuff. I think it'd be far out to go with the name and personality that you are most known for on the forum, my dude, 'cause, like, the whole thing is kinda like one big in-joke, man. You could even ask to be a boss if you wanted 'cause like good and evil are both needed for a story dude, it's like in the Lord of Rings where Boromir throws the GandalfΒ into Mount Doom.

Hawkwing Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Played it thrice. Had fun with it. I know it's a demo and is more to show off features than to represent the final product, and I treated it as such. Having to pick out characters as early as the first map was encouragement to try out different combinations. Everyone seems to be overpowered, but again, I expect balancing to occur in the final version. To provide some general observations/first impressions: - I personally preferred the NES styled keyboard controls to the mouse. Maybe it's because I'm playing on a laptop and thus it was pretty easy for the cursor toΒ swipe awayΒ of what I was aiming at, but the Z, X, and arrow keys felt more natural to me. - While I did get used to them, IΒ mixed up my own units with the enemy early on. This did lead to the someΒ hilarious situations of me moving my units forward, only to realize some of them weren't mine. - Some animations felt pretty stiff, such asΒ knights, Eclipse, and dragon riders. Others moved more smoothly, such as the magic users, shapeshifters, and archers. - The great lance looked a little too huge to the point that I chuckled at how appropriate the name was. The slim lance was also larger than I thought it should be. - The banhammer got a chuckle out of me as well. - The handaxe animation is something I'm expecting to be improved in the final version of the game. - I like the class designs in this game. They look fitting. - I liked how the weapon used in battle changed depending on what was equipped. - I'm expecting a few more dodge and critical animations in the full version of the game. The shamans dodge animation was cool, while others were nonexistent. - I like how the transformations are like FE3's, where you have to use an item to transform, but while in dragon/cat form, nothing else is used up. It was encouragement to time transforming just right and to get the most out of the unitΒ each turn, which is type of mechanic I greatly enjoy. - ItΒ took a while to get used to Rezzy being a strong combat unit. I'm not used to healers being front line fighters early on. - Acacia died because I underestimated Pengauis's stupid killer bow. Seriously, f*ck that boss. Anyway, I noted that he didn't have a death quote, which honestly felt anticlimactic. - Kat felt a little to inaccurate for my liking. Granted, that's a complaint I have with most axe users in Fire Emblem, but it still applied here. The only use I saw for her was getting to the east village early. - Ana also felt like she took a considerable amount of damage, but that might just be my defense-focused playstyle speaking rather than a fault of the game itself. - A way of telling what kind of bonuses the shapeshifters would gain from transforming would be nice to see. As well as knowing how much longer they have before transforming back. - Showing current EXPΒ on the map would also be nice. - As well as showing debuffs, since I really didn't notice anyΒ affects. - The tone is given off right from the start, and I had fun with the writing provided thus far. I wouldn't mind if the rest of the game is this goofy, with some jokes about typical Fire Emblem mechanics thrown in. All in all, I had a fun time with this. Some of the criticisms/suggestions are things I'm expecting to be ironed out in the final product anyway, so I'd say you're off to a great start!

Upon defeat, Pengaius should say, "I'm melting! MELTING!" Are you sure you didn't skip it on accident? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
