Masamune_Wielder Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 (edited) I just started playing Fire Emblem Gaiden today & I think that it is greatly under-appreciated. I admit some of the features of the game are (odd) but I personally think that just adds a challenge. Post any comment you have on the game (good or bad).

cheetah7071 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Grinding sucks. Therefore FE2 sucks. In all seriousness, I'd probably appreciate it more if it didn't have the clunky NES interface which really just isn't good enough for a game like Fire Emblem where you need to juggle 10 different numbers at any given time and have quick access to all of them.

Allan's Aokage Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 FE2Advance kthnx Joking aside, it would solve the interface problem. Except it's... yeah. ;3 It's all right. Not bad, not brilliant. Never bothered to finish it, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I hate the way the numbers show up in it too, that's why I'm hoping for a DS remake, If it has Shadow Dragon's difficulty (maybe a bit harder) & the map feature it could be a huge hit (in my opinion).

Squidorsky Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I'd say the coolest thing, one that could and should be reused, was the ability to walk around in places like towns and castles and see other people. If that was redone, maybe in a better wa, it could make for an interesting spin on fire emblem as it could give more insight to places and even characters.

BEST TRYNDAMERE PLAYER Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Honestly lack of a decent translation patch kept me from trying this. I'm going to try it sometime today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mousefire Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Well, I've only played a few chapters, but it's great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paperblade Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 (edited) The problem with FE2, is that 30% is considered balling out of control and 50% unheard of, yet enemies have 100% HP growth, 0% Luck, and then 50% in everything else. So it's kind of like every enemy is FE6 Karel if he were a Level 1 Myrmidon. Also, Archers have like 2-5 range, which is hilarious. I like the non-grindy difficulty, but honestly if I wanted to play a grinding SRPG I'd just go play Disgaea, since at least Disgaea is fucking awesome.

Masamune_Wielder Posted November 18, 2009 Author Share Posted November 18, 2009 (edited) no, for what I remember you had to fight few bandits in a stupidly large map each time in fe2 In FE2 you fight thieves for the first 5 battles & in FE4 you fight bandits for the first two incredibly large chapters, FE2 chapters are not even close in size to FE4. FE4 is also the one where you have to capture multiple castles a map & FE2 you just have to kill all the enemies (most of the time).

Junkhead Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 It's goood at some point, but you need a little patience I think, the game gets a little boring, and many of your characters aren't worth it or suck, Alm/Arum is the only one eary game who can double attack and hit hard normally, I guess Cliff is good too.

Most people have to grind a lot for a good file, I just finished grinding today & I now have my Silk as a Level 1 Saint promoted from Level 20 Priest & all my villagers have an assortment of jobs (Mage Mercenary Etc...) you donèt have to grind too much in Ch.1 though unless your trying to get Dozehs Dragonshield. if you level up your units a little bit they can double pretty easily but ill admit the game is a little boring but a DS remake would be awesome (in my opinion).

He doesn't mean China FE4 he's trying to use China's size as an analogy for the map size in FE4. Anyways I've gotten past chapter 1 so far and I have to say, it's not too bad. And you don't HAVE to grind. (I plan on beating this game without having to abuse those temples not counting bandit's den where I did bandit's den twice to get Cliff to level 3 to become a Mage since he couldn't promote until 3) Edited November 18, 2009 by Joey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
