Thank you! Things'll be slowing down after this week, so I'll be more on top of updates in future months.

Welcome to the forest! We hope that you'll have a great day and that you'll enjoy your stay. Also, pro tip: Don't lose your thief on the first map of the game if you ironman FE7, it'll make the game a bit easier.

So true.

'morning!

I have nothing else to add to this thread right now, but I will someday, once I play Engage! ...Which will happen after I finish Trails FC

Banned because I reckon it's time I change my pfp again.

Welcome to the forest! Lots of people here are buzzing about Engage, so I hope you'll find the discussion you're looking for. Slay.

Posted above someone else who made the same mistake I would've with French.

Banned because get tent!

Banned because get rent!

We are glad that you now exist! We hope that you'll have a great day and that you'll enjoy your stay. Welcome to the forest! We hope that you'll find the resources and discussions you're looking for. This is a decent place for that! If you're plan to use FEBuilder to make a fangame in the GBA games' engine, FEUniverse is also a good place to be. If you'd rather go the route of SRPG Studio, the community discord is probably the best bet. Still, there's also plenty here!

I personally find FE7's story to be so bad it's good, but that may be mostly because I spent an entire year's worth of a screenshot LP trying to make fun of it. Still, I fill like my opinion's not entirely unsupported by textual evidence. I can't fully judge either CQ or Rev, but what I have seen of them is glorious. Lastly, I... Well, I hope I don't get excommunicated for this, but I found myself laughing at a lot of TH's story beats. I only played Verdant Wind, which is apparently the weakest route, but dear lord was it ever funny. At times pointless, at times nonsensical, and at times lacking in budget or time to finish scenes, VW was probably the most I've laughed at for an FE story. Until I realized I spent 100$ on it and the joke was on me.

Banned because hooray! I'm glad you enjoyed the game.

Got it! I'm super tired right now so I won't update the OP for a day or two, but I would request that someone kindly ping me at some point tomorrow and the day after, before I forget.

Of course! You can't really go wrong, unless you do Y3 or OG1; the rest are all good options. And so is Engage, from what I've heard! Banned because I'm really excited for Ishin, but I don't know if I'll be able to play it any time soon. I'm glad they kept Watase, though!

Banned because I really hope you enjoy them as well! K1 is a really fun game with a bunch of improvements over 0's combat system and is pretty good, which is impressive considering the source material of OG Yakuza 1-. K2 is the second Dragon Engine game, and... Well, they were still figuring things out with it, but it's pretty fun, and I love ragdolls. K2 is kind of the opposite of K1 in a lot of ways, with its biggest strengths being the story and side-stories. It also has an absolutely masterful side campaign! K2 is tied with 0, LAD, and Lost Judgment as my favorite games in the series. As a side note, you may want to hold off on the Kiwamis if they go on sale soon! The remake/localizations of Ishin! is coming out in three weeks, and by all accounts, Ishin is one of the best games in the series- Famitsu gave Yakuza 0 a 36/40, and the original Ishin got a 38/40. It's also a nice one to play in between 0 and K1 since it uses a similar combat system (In fact, Ishin! was the game to introduce the multi-style system), but the styles are radically different from Kiryu's throughout the main series. The music is on-point, the setting is really cool, and the original was a visual marvel considering that it was a launch PS4 game, so I'd expect the same here. Lastly, there is more Kuze in Ishin, so it's easily the GOTY. The only thing with it is that characters throughout the series play historical figures, so if you want to be fully blind going into the rest of the series and want to save it for last so that you can go , then that's valid too! And you can't forget that Judgment is a great game that can be played at any time in the Yakuza timeline, since it only uses the same setting. There's also LAD, which can technically be played out of order at the cost of ruining Yakuza 5, but I'd argue that Y5's story is kinda sussy to begin with

Hello, Ruben. I wanna watch it but I can't because I haven't played Engage yet

Banned because Two Dragons is truly kino. And thank you for playing Yakuza 0! I'm really glad you enjoyed it.

Welcome to the forest! We hope that you'll have a great day and that you'll enjoy your stay. And no need to worry about writing lots or lurking! Everybody works at their own pace; I tend to write massive walls of text myself.

Congrats to @SoulWeaver for winning this round! Once you are ready, please send us our prompt for the next round.

SLAY Hope you enjoy the final chapter! The music in the finale is fantastic IMO, so I hope you enjoy it. minor substory spoilers: Banned for sharing my opinions on Yakuza 0.
