So, what skills should I focus on.

So we're doing this "but feelings" thing? Banning guns doesn't decrease violence with guns. And guns aren't dangerous. Live grenades are, though. It seems ridiculous to ban guns just because crazy people keep killing people. Outlawing rape is ridiculous because most people don't rape. There's no reason to control guns. In fact, government controlling guns is unconstitutional. It's our right, you know? Change that, and only good suffer. Rapist, thieves, murderers do it cause why not or just because. They don't care about rules.

Is that a fact? I was pretty sure Fire Emblem was fun because story and gameplay. It can be argued that superheroes are killing machines.

Funny how it was decreasing way before 96. The gun ban can't take responsibility for homicide. Which means guns aren't the problem.

Sadism Is bad? In fiction? I keep forgetting Japan runs on "the power of friendship" en masse. And enjoying hurting people? There's worse crimes than murder, I hear.

What do you mean? Am I not correct?

And? Is killing in Saint's Row not fun, especially in 4? Is running people over with a cement mixer not entertaining? Is killing a player character in Overwatch not a good time? I'd say that's one helluva good time. It's just a game, do they actively disobey the players commands? No? No biggie, then.

That is an interesting character. Why do they kill? I really don't care, but I'd take Peri or Tharja over more...boring characters.

That won't stop all the gun violence crimed, though. Tell me something. If a person had a gun, and pointed it at you, and you had a gun, would you want to fire it? I mean, it's a person, another human being. Not the same as shooting a dog. Sure, shooting a dog would be a sad day, but that isn't a human life. Not the same. So, would you pull the trigger, and kill him?

Talk about odd. You weren't kidding. No biggie. I loved XIII, as well. Especially Lightning. I started with VII, however. But VII, as well as X, isn't even in my top 5. VI IX IV XIV XIII I'd say VII is at 8th and X is 9th. I'd say fight me, but that might be seen as rude. I'd be playing XIV right now if not for a permaban for me. People are so quick to jump to conclusion, I tell you. But that is neither here nor there. Their product, their rules, so no hard feelings, right? No use getting worked up over a justified ban. Heh, Maria has an interesting...design, to say the least. I've talked to people who dislike her design, as in the dress. I don't have a problem with it, but people will be people. Again, no worries. Taste is subjective, after all.

Never nerf Gilgamesh. All jokes aside, however, I'd have to say Fei Fong Wong from Xenogears or Musashi from Brave Fencer Musashi.

There's a case to be made on "bad characters". I don't know much about Fates. Just Nohr and Hoshido are at war and Corrin is from both. Kindly explain what makes Tharja and Peri, please?

Main series? To be honest, VI or IX. I hate II. We don't talk about FF2. Even IF Firion is a cool guy. We just don't. Why VI? My favorite plot. Bad Guy actually does achieve his goal, unlike a certain silver haired man. Why IX? Magicite was Materia but worse...So make Magicite but good. I believe Tactics did it first, learning skills from equipment, and I love that. Intead of Skill Points, SKYRIM, it takes hundreds of AP to master a single ability so you can't quickly get abilities. Plus the OST has more hits, imo. Nothing tops the Opera Scene theme or Terra's theme, but IX has more than 4 amazing tracks. imo, of course. Too bad it has Tetra Master. Still don't understand that...barely playable mess. Triple Triad is better. But there's Hot & Cold, so I overlook that. Spin-offs? Errr...Counting sequels and prequels, it's a 2 way tie. Crisis Core and Tactics. I like Genesis (the character), sure he's Gackt but I'm not even remotely bothered by that. The original VII has MAAAANNNNNYYYYY plot holes. imo, again. At least we got the puppy that is Zack outta it, and that is 1000000000 reasons enough for me. And that ending...It's surely powerful. I nearly cried. You-Know-Who has you-know-what happen and I never felt bad about it. Zack? I actually cared about him. Tactics is just...My third favorite video game ever. I can't do it justice to explain it. It wouldn't be right, y'know? It's one games ever, period. I'll die on a hill in defense of my opinion on this. @eclipse, was it? I'd love to hear your lists. It'd be interesting, no doubt. I'm just glad you didn't ask my favorite and least favorite FF characters. I'd have to go into powerpoint pie charts and everything on you.

I dunno why it makes me feel funny, but it does. But in a strangely good way. No idea what that means, but I'm gonna do all I can to help anyone, if only to recreate the weird feeling. Call it selfish, but I don't care. I like the feeling.

I have Lucina with Luna, the speed attack one (Ryoma's skill), Paragon, Str+10 and HP+50. Lucina is my main, so I'm 100% her before focusing on anyone else. For P.Falchion, would First Class, Power Up, Fury Builder, Mountslayer, Lancebreaker and perhaps antitriangle (dunno what to put on her last slot tbh) be a good idea? Or is there better skills? No Anna, Celica, Lyn/Lyndis and/or any DLC yet (going to purchase season pass as it's the best value, I believe), so I'm only working with base game, albeit with 150 Lv cap and the most current update.

Well said. Never too late to learn anything, either.

SMT is dark. There's a ton of demons and angels. Persona isn't SMT, it's a spinoff, like Tactics is to FINAL FANTASY. It's an important distinction to make, albeit Persona being more popular in the west than SMT. Some SMT's have you straight up kill God. The games are choice heavy. Certain dialogue choices sway how the world to seeing you in a different way. Go all "God is great" and you become more LAWful. Go "strong eat eat" and you go CHAOS. The choices dictate what ending you get. The points are...invisible. No way to check. In IV, for instance, the alignments go from + to - 100. Neutral is...8 to - 8. I got that first time without even knowing. One ending has you kill the big angels, another has you off the big demons and the neutral route has you going "screw you two" and axing both so humans are able to live in peace. Choice is a big question asked in each SMT. Do I kill this demon, despite being my mom? Yes? Gain LAW points. It's a philosophy thing. Do we have freedom? Or are we controlled by something bigger? I'd say more but playing is the only way to find out. Watching isn't the same as playing. The series will end you. A lot. As in low level enemies have instakill abilities. But those are fun. You literally have to earn your victory. But mess up, like miss, and you die. Regardless of your HP max. I love it. I really love it. Oh, and unless you're playing SMT IV, if your MC dies, it's automatic game over. Which means you lost 5 hours of gameplay. Even in Persona. So save often, as losing hours of progress sucks. Even in TMS#FE. Oh and bring buffs and debuffs. Don't and game over unless you're way over the levels of your foes. Still got flashbacks to Matador in Nocturne. Didn't use buffs until he killed Demi-fiend 14 times in a row. I'm not even exaggerating or kiddin' about the IMPORTANCE of buffs in SMT, Persona and TMS.

Virion, the Awakening archer who flirts all the time. I saw him then benched him immediately. If someone is the team flirt, it's gonna be me!

He was 95. The body is like a live explosive. Who knows when it'll explode. Spiderman is my favorite superhero. He's so cool! Comics aren't gonna be the same. Dude...Hope he's happy, wherever he is. Seriously, you earned it Mr. Lee...Rest in Peace and one helluva story we saw!

Controlling guns won't stop...uhhh...mentally unsound people from doing bad things, so only the law abiding citizenry will suffer. Seems like more guns equals less gun violence, strangely enough. Australian lawmakers banned guns, iirc, but gun crime didn't change compared to before the gun ban. Really though, the shooter, just like the anti-Semite who tragically took lives recently, needs/needed a psychological evaluation. S/He needed some serious help. It's unfortunate that this even happened. I'm so used to hearing "school shooting" that I stopped being surprised. That's terrifying. We live in a country where no one gets help and then they take lives, be it others or their own. That's unacceptable. These otherwise decent lads and lasses do horrible things because I dunno. It shouldn't happen in the first place. I'm against super "how're you feeling" weekly, but in cases, like this, it is entirely justified to necessitate these kinda tactics. I was bullied as a kid, it sucks...but so was everyone. All the people I grew up with turned out fine. Just saying there's a very fine line between bullying and pushing someone into doing bad things. Clearly, and unfortunately, this person resorted to such extreme measures.

I see. I forgot to manhandle (womanhandle?) mooks. As I added, I'm on Switch. Kinda makes the game slightly harder. Also, the AI sucks at defending against shadows. Shadow Elimination is pretty tough, despite everyone being Lv40+.

Finally can reply! Wooooot. Not a fan of Genesis. Just isn't for me. Anyway, my thanks for the welcomes. 'ppreciate it. Same back at you all!

It's the Time Restricted one. I use Lucina and just solo murder hobo everything. Most kills I get, on average, is around 1100. I can't seem to get more than 1500 kills. Truly! I am quite stuck. Pair Up doesn't seem to work, even with Sakura attached to my hip. Any help and/or advice would be deeply appreciated. EDIT: @Baron the Shining Blade I'm on Switch. The site won't let me reply yet.

Call me Stix! Pleasure to meecha. I've only played Awakening, Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE and Warriors, but I wanna play more. A bit about me? Very well. Huge FF fan, been playing that since '97. I have a flair for the dramatic, so of course I naturally adore and gravitate towards theater/theatre. I have a dark sense of humor/humour and am almost always happy. I live in America, but I don't mind so long as we can communicate what kinda English you are prone to using. Here's a fun fact: Huge vocabulary results in knowing some...Rather interesting words. I also use ...'s often, same with "you know?/y'know?". And with that, i hope we can somewhat get along reasonably well.
