What do you do with your grand heroes?
WyvernSurfer replied to Prince Endriu's topic in Fire Emblem Heroes
You should definitely look into Arvis. He's a great support unit (heals and debuffs) and his offensive potential is good, if not quite as great as Tharja's or Celica's. His fantastic resistance helps in both regards. As for your question, I always keep at least one of each around and fodder off spares, even Berkut and Navarre. Sometimes I like a unit so much that I'll keep their copies around and merge them (Arvis, BK). -
What's this in my in- oh. Ooooh. And two of them? You've done pretty great with the material you're given. I especially liked how Zola and Izana were portrayed, compared to their game counterparts. On the other hand, kind of sad that Reina is getting the Orochi treatment (even though I saw that coming for months). On a side note, now that I remember it, the "Valla" plot device was poorly thought-out in Revelations. Was there anything to stop Corrin and Azura from simply using codewords or making up a story to Ryoma and Xander?

I've been playing since launch. The number is 37; most recently Leo, BLyn and BIke. Exactly 10 of them were promoted with Nino being the first, and 3 have been granted for free, including BIke. (I swear, my heart was pounding on that colorless summon for Lyn) To quote a certain pair of boots, I got nothin' to complain about. I'm just saving orbs for SS and Jugdral (and unique unit types like Reina).

Fair enough. The old portraits and designs do belong in the trash.

I wouldn't mind some racial diversity but I'm not too sure about changing established designs. In any case, this isn't that much of a change. Valentia seems to have Greco-Latin flavor (Celica's music and Greek vase designs, for example) so it's no surprise that there are dark, "Mediterranean-looking" characters. On a similar topic, given how well Hoshidan aesthetics/classes were handled in Fates, I'd love if they'd experiment more with other cultures. Like "Hussar" from a polish-inspired culture or "Eagle Knight" from an Aztec-inspired one.

So glad I stumbled across this. I'm doubly impressed how you managed to integrate the salvaged story with DLC. I look forward to the next update.

Saddest part of the game.
WyvernSurfer replied to 249019835431097531's topic in Fire Emblem: Awakening
I thought fighting Mustafa was pretty sad since I liked the guy. The supports of the child characters also count. The Future Past DLC takes it up to eleven. -
Since JRPG is a broad genre, Dark Souls. Caution, planning and tenacity are heavily rewarded. It's how difficulty should be handled. The MegaTen/Persona series is a good turned-based line of games with unconventional plots.

Tonight you go to bed with... (Awakening Version)
WyvernSurfer replied to Slugger57's topic in Forum Games
Jack Frost needs a new pair of shoes! Inigo. Freakin' classy. -
I want to make him mine... forever.

I got back from a year hiatus in League. Now I have to work hard to be a moderately-less terrible player again. I'm aiming for Varus with my IP but after trying Akali and getting frustrated, I'm determined.

Roland initiative. IZ GREGOR TIME! -
I think you'd do just fine without grinding if you plan on just beating the game, even on Lunatic. Since I'm playing on Lunatic and plan on using everyone in my team for endgame, I grind to bring my benched units up to speed. Risen hordes on Hard and EXP growth on Lunatic. Just do what you want to do. I'd recommend not grinding for your already-able units.

I kind of wish the MU didn't exist...
WyvernSurfer replied to Skynstein's topic in Fire Emblem: Awakening
I like that s/he has a fixed personality. It's just that I really wish the Avatar was more fleshed out of a character with actual depth. It felt like the devs were stuck in the middle of a fixed, story character and a blank slate. Basically "One size fits all". But going the self-insert route, it would be pretty sweet if they had pulled a Commander Shepard where you select one line of dialogue and the next few lines of dialogue follow its tone. Well, there's me and my impractical ideas again... -
How do you think of your Avatar?
WyvernSurfer replied to Topaz Light's topic in Fire Emblem: Awakening
A self-insert Mary Sue who can plan, kill or bed just about anything. Though, I sometimes see him as a typical grunt in my army. -
Welcome to the Forest. Nice to meet you. So, uh, have you worked out your "demons"?

Why do you like/dislike certain characters?
WyvernSurfer replied to Anacybele's topic in Fire Emblem: Awakening
What is it meant by like or dislike? Because they're terribly-written characters or because they would make for terrible human beings? I would abhor The Joker for being a complete monster but he serves the story well and is an interesting character on his own. -
I pronounce it "Mer-mid-din". Not correct but it stuck.

What new Lord features would you like to see?
WyvernSurfer replied to Coreyographed's topic in General Fire Emblem
I haven't played Radiant Dawn but the idea of lords warring with each other due to their differing ideologies would be pretty sweet. The Lord you choose can persuade the other two+ lords to join his/her cause depending on choices earlier in the game, otherwise, he/she'd have to kill them. I would love to legitimately invade other regions and unite them under one banner as a conqueror and not a white knight. This would make distributing the character roster a tad bit confusing, though.- 137 replies

WyvernSurfer replied to Coreyographed's topic in General Fire Emblem
I'd like to bring up plot important decisions which was mentioned a page or two ago. 'Twould be nice. The guy who rescues lasses and saves foreign villages from their own barbarous lords? The bastard!- 137 replies

I'll be "That guy". There would be more complaints of Tharja being a creepy stalker.

I think she's interesting and somewhat relatable. Broadening it a bit, she goes out of her way perfect herself to get something she wants in the form of love. I guess you could say they hit her shtick home a mallet but that's a problem with Awakening's cast in general. It's kind of painful how missed of an opportunity story-wise there was for being the only survivor of a slaughtered team.

The Outrealms is one big Deus EX Machina.
WyvernSurfer replied to IceBrand's topic in Fire Emblem: Awakening
IIRC None of the characters in the main story canonically even mention, let alone use, the Outrealms so that's a moot point. -
What's your favourite piece of music from this game?
WyvernSurfer replied to DodgeDusk's topic in Fire Emblem: Awakening
Destiny. -
Definitely not my favorite FE but it's still a great game. It's a mixed bag in regards to story and characters and has some balance issues but it's still challenging and interesting enough. Hope it wins handheld.
