[Which characters were popular but aren‘t anymore?]

Ignatz's relatability is simple to understand. Almost everyone has felt at one time or another like they're being pressured into doing something they don't want to do just because they think it's "right", pushing their real passions aside to make it happen. This pressure especially can come from family which is where Ignatz's hangups also arise.

[What would you add to an additional difficulty mode?]

I would love more of a necessity for defense and healing. I remember that being a big part of the first FEW and wish they could capture that magical balance again that some of the best maps in that game had.

[What character is your main?]

My main team has generally been: 
Lianna
Frederick
Cordelia
Takumi

The Takumi slot is sorta flex. I have a lot of trouble using archers well since they seem to get walled off and take a long time to finish things off, but maybe that'll change as he levels up/gets upgraded. I've been considering a mage, but I'm not really a fan of any of the mage characters. Mostly I just clear maps out by swapping between Lianna, Frederick, and Cordelia who I find all of to be massively entertaining to play as. 

I'm also sorta considering swapping out Lianna for Xander, since I value getting around the battlefield quickly and his moveset is great fun as well, but I gotta admit to liking footsoldier swordfighters and I do like Lianna's character. 

[SB plays THE WORST FIRE EMBLEM GAME]

Is this still continuing? I understand if you don't want to play anymore, but I'm interested in seeing this game since I'll never bother to play it myself. :V
