  1. Not yet, though I now realized I should've done it when I pre-ordered Persona 5. Fail on my part.
  2. Been considering playing it, but with SoV coming, I likely won't try the original version until a much later date, and solely for comparisons to the updated version.
  3. I highly doubt this. Shadows of Valentia is so unlike the previous two titles that I figure nobody expects it to do exceptionally well. More than likely, it's just a side project to see if there might be a small market for potential remakes of older games.
  4. Wasn't problematic for me, considering it meant a healer was on hand if needed.
  5. Exactly how familiar are you with Fire Emblem as a whole?
  6. You're talking about a physical tank on horseback, who has a high Mt weapon with 1-2 range, hits pretty hard, and who's only real weaknesses are his Speed and vulnerability to magic. Yeah, he's definitely top tier, especially if you fix his Speed deficiency with a Charlotte pair up and/or the Lodestar class.
  7. That doesn't surprise me in the least. I also expect topics to pop up about people complaining that there's no Avatar, or "Why can't I make Alm/Celica marry this guy/this girl?"
  8. Elibe's Sages were good too, especially the females.
  9. Same here. I don't mind them, but they're starting to take the spotlight, and that should not be for a strategy game like FE.
  10. Maybe Faye will be more like Catria instead of Cordelia. If that ends up being the case, then she won't be so bad.
  11. Even if it isn't, that won't stop some from complaining. Have you ever seen people moan and groan about the way Exp. Share now works in Pokémon?
  12. I like Fates well enough overall. In terms of gameplay, it reigns supreme for me. The re-balanced Pair-Up system, lowered stat inflation, better maps (in Conquest's case); it makes playing the games a treat. However, Birthright is too easy, Conquest has a royally bad story, and Revelation is so gimmicky it hurts, not to mention it has some scenes that outright piss me off. Additionally, Corrin is bad, and the whole children aspect is done so, so poorly. Saying that Fates is failed potential really does encapsulate my feelings well.
  13. I just want paired endings. I don't see a need to shoehorn immediate marriages in, because it makes the relationship move way too fast. Keeping marriages to character endings allows for more natural support chains.
  14. Nice. Very nice. I do wonder about your definition of ambush spawns, though. If the game warns you they're coming, can't really call it an ambush.
  15. This game has some really great writing. It's the kind of quality that makes one happily point out the game and say, "Hey, this is an awesome Fire Emblem game. It may not be an official one, but it's damn close!" Honestly, this is far better written than most FE games tend to be.
  16. I disappear from the Forest for like half a year, only to come back to the sad news of this LP being Moniker's last. You were one of my favorite LPers Moniker, and I'll miss your commentary when you're gone. For now, though, I'll just enjoy what's left.
  17. Andrei, that was a dick move. I probably would've hit him for that too.
  18. If you just like fucking with people, carry on. Anyway, I'm loving your analysis on the game. I'm excited to see what you have to say about the games I'm familiar with.
  19. Only read the first page so far, but I needed to say one thing before it slips my mind. I hate seeing the word irregardless. That double negative really screws with me.
  20. eShop isn't taxed in California. That said, as a user above mentioned, having a debit or credit card will allow you to add just what you need to purchase the game. Love that function.
  21. Hmm, looks interesting. Guess I'll hang around and check this out. Maybe play along.
  22. Is staff hit rate still calculated like it is in other games with status staves?
  23. I remember first going into Paralogue 2 somewhere around Chapter 21 and seeing the ridiculous strength of the enemies compared to my own, which had me worried. As expected, I had to reset twice on that one, and my successful run had me facing a near constant stream of reinforcements. By the time I was done, the level 5+ promoted folks I had were now somewhere around level 11. Totally wasn't expecting such an influx of experience.
  24. If you'd like. I'm replaying Birthright on Hard right now, so the chapters are fairly fresh in my mind. Currently doing Chapter 16. The boss now moving caught me quite off guard.
