Doom103 Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I wanna import it, but I wanna know how good it is. Better than, FE7, 8, 9, 10? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenG Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 It depends. Storywise, is bad. It definitely feels a bit dated, but at the same time, classic. Think about the original Final Fantasy 4. Gameplay wise, is doesn't have many of the loved features (skills, retreating movement for horsemen, help command), but it has the class swap system, keeps all the interface updates from Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn while introducing its own (skipping enemy turn, choosing weapon in the pre-battle screen, touch controls) and online. Online is like a game of its own, but if you are not into farming a team and abusing arena for money, then you may not consider this option. For me it's better than any of the three GBA games (for some reason I despise them), but inferior to the 3D ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvan Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Nothing comes close to FE 7. Personally, I'd put it above 9, maybe 8. Just because of wifi. Single player isn't that great. But the added hard modes are fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Tarrasque Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 (edited) I prefer it over the US-released FEs for its 5 Stars Hard difficulty. I freaking love it. The wifi probably gets old quickly since by the time you get into it, you'll see arena abused teams and hackers >_> Edited December 23, 2008 by Levin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamara Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Story is nothing to write home about, I bought it for the gameplay. They removed many features from previous games, but the basics couldn't have been more perfect. The class swap system encourages players to try other characters and it's fun to mess around with. Online matches aren't that interesting, since it's all very limited (it's certainly no Advance Wars) and there are already some cheaters active. If you want a challenge, you'll get it from the main game on harder difficulties. Of you could attempt a speedrun, Shadow Dragon is very suitable for speedruns.

Rodykitty Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Friend Code WiFi is the best, since both players will actually use strategy (while it's said that hackers will not), and is different enough from Advance Wars to be enjoyable. But FEDS definitely has a lot for its single player. Hard modes that make it the hardest non-Japanese FE game. Class swap can add replayability as well.

Raven Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 (edited) Hard mode is indeed hard, so it's a natural favourite of mine. Like FE7 and FE10. Edited December 23, 2008 by Raven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ike-Mike Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Definately more fun than Radiant Dawn. The gameplay itself has been stripped down to its basics, but the amount of content will keep you replaying the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
