Wasn't formation tied to the order you selected units? I mean, sure, that's still harder than changing the positions on the map itself, but it's not like you couldn't do it at all.

BrightBow Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 But yeah. I reset like that all the time. Experimenting wouldn't be very fun if resetting wasn't so easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should've specified I was talking about battle stuff. 6 minutes ago, BrightBow said: As for battle, if you were to skip enemy movement, you would likely have to spend more time figuring out the enemy's moves after the fact. Maybe, but having the option is still nice. It's there in FE and it works! And what about combat animations? Is it really such a terrible loss to let me skip Adel swinging his spear for the 5th time? The worst part is, you can skip scripted battles in cutscenes by pressing enter, but not actual battles. It's not a horrible flaw, but it is a bit annoying.

And even so, if the issue is that I need to like, trade an item off of an inactive unit, I'm shit outta luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst part is, you can skip scripted battles in cutscenes by pressing enter, but not actual battles. It's not a horrible flaw, but it is a bit annoying. But you can always chose whether you want to view the animations during battle preview. Well, technically it doesn't work if you trigger an ambush or using a non-attacking orb. That just does whatever the default settings are. It IS unfortunate for healers since their animations are very nice. But ambushes are relatively rare.

No, I can choose to view regular animations and map animations. I cannot skip anything. There's a difference. Map animations are fast enough, admittedly, but there's always room for it to be faster. Don't get me wrong, I personally don't mind that the option doesn't exist, but it's undeniably better in modern FE, where you can skip literally everything if you want to. The truth is, Kaga is plain worse than FE at QoL in every single one of his games except Berwick Saga. And even then, for every feature that Berwick has that FE doesn't, it lacks something that FE does offer. You can't really argue "Kaga good" in this aspect, I'm afraid. Just now, Acacia Sgt said: Well, the important thing is that SRW did it before either of them. SRW also did 1 hour straight of unskippable text before Kaga Well, in any case, break time's over.

And even then, the implementation was always much worse. Edited May 11, 2021 by BrightBow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, good to know, I guess. I've been uncharacteristically bashing Kaga. Allow me to do the opposite now: Every day I miss Berwick/TearRing Saga's flags. Seriously, I know I can mark enemy range, but with stuff like the boulder, I have to memorize the enemy range without the boulder, because the marked range is affected by it. In a Kaga game, I'd just mark it up with a flag and forget about it. Really handy feature, and there's little reason that it has to be mutually exclusive with marking enemy ranges.

I feel like i wouldn't have missed that if there were. Ohhhhhh wait, you're talking about the Save Staff. Yeah no, that doesn't count. Imagine making saves a limited resource. Couldn't be me. 6 minutes ago, BrightBow said: And even then, the implementation was always much worse. Nah, i ain't waiting five turns to make a save. Five-turn saves are better than nothing but i'd much rather just save every turn. Saves time. Unless you're referring to Save Staffs, in which i do agree is worse. 6 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Allow me to do the opposite now: Every day I miss Berwick/TearRing Saga's flags.
