Refa Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) Chances are that the topic title means little more to you than "I Joined Serenes Forest", but I just wanted to have my (user)name in the thread topic. I dunno, makes it more personal, I guess. So obviously I like Fire Emblem, and seeing how this is a forum about the series, I thought I'd just talk about my personal history with Fire Emblem. The first Strategy RPG I played was Shining Force (on Sega Smash Pack 2 for the PC), which is what I'd say is the spiritual sequel to Fire Emblem Gaiden. I loved it at the time because I really sucked at pretty much every other game I played (except Jazz Jackrabbit 2, funnily enough). So I'm sure I would've been interested in Fire Emblem 7 when it came over here, but I didn't own a Game Boy Advance. However, I did watch friends play it at school and heard about the series (Me: " Oh, so it's kind of like Shining Force. That's pretty boss." Friend (obviously confused): "Shining what?"). While I didn't get the Game Boy Advance, I did manage to pick up an original DS in 2006, while they were still selling new GBA games, and the first game I got for my DS was Fire Emblem Sacred Stones. While I look back on it fondly, it obviously wasn't the greatest Fire Emblem game. Still, what better to start off the series than with the easiest game in the series? I still had quite a bit of trouble with the game, but I managed to beat it multiple times, and I loved it. Later on, I found a used copy of FE7, which I played and loved even more. Something about how it was the right combination of challenge and addictive gameplay. So even though the Wii was going to come out in 2007, I had to get a GameCube to play Fire Emblem Path Of Radiance, which I was super hyped up about. Ever since then, I've been in love with the series. As far as games I've played, here's a quick rundown; Fire Emblem Dark Dragon & Sword Of Light- After reading one of the greatest LPs of this game on the SA forums, I tried it out and found up that it's aged rather well for an SRPG on the NES. Still pretty dated, but not as bad as one would think. Fire Emblem Gaiden- I played this a long time ago before the fan translation was available, and didn't get very far. Fire Emblem Genealogy Of The Holy War- I love this game so so much, but I can't seem to get very far at all (Chapter...3, I think) because of just little issues that really bother me. I WANT everyone to double attack! I WANT people to trade items! I WANT a remake of this so badly, because it'd probably be the greatest thing ever (I'm interested in that FE4 GBA fan remake, but I'm talking about big budget remake by Nintendo). Fire Emblem Thracia 776- Putting for the sake of completeness, I never really made a real attempt to play this game. Fire Emblem Sealed Sword- I haven't gotten very far in this one at all. Only a few chapters really, still would like to finish it sometime in the future. Fire Emblem Blazing Sword- Have completed many times over (but never on HHM, wierdly enough) and am well versed in it. Fire Emblem Sacred Stones- Played a lot when I was younger, but after I traded it (which was dumb of me, but at least I got Phoenix Wright III and EOII in return, one of which I love and the other is a dungeon crawler), I've become less knowledgable about this game. Fire Emblem Path Of Radiance- I love this game (may be my favorite, 4 doesn't count because I haven't beaten it and I just put it as my favorite because I'm pretentious, and it's in competition with 7) and my lifelong goal is to complete this game 100%. Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn- I put this here despite never playing it because I own a sealed copy of the game, really really really want to play it, and my Wii is broken. Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon- I actually enjoyed this one quite a bit, although I can see why other people don't like it as much. Fire Emblem New Mystery Of The Emblem- I would've played it if NoA localized it. Edited September 17, 2011 by Refa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rapier Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) Hi, and welcome to the forums dude. I hope you have a good time here. Fire Emblem Genealogy Of The Holy War- [...] I WANT a remake of this so badly, because it'd probably be the greatest thing ever (I'm interested in that FE4 GBA fan remake, but I'm talking about big budget remake by Nintendo). That would be the best thing ever, I'm also waiting for it (patiently) although the chances are a bit small (but they exist nevertheless!), let's just hope that dream comes true. =) Edited September 16, 2011 by Lorddomu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Refa Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 Hey, welcome to SF. I suggest you go joina draft! I'm interested in doing an SS draft, just because it's so easy and I have some experience with the game. It'll be fun to revisit it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eclipse Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Yo, if you want to attempt a SS draft, I suggest going to a previous one, grabbing a team, and going nuts. Do remember to follow the draft rules~! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knife Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Hey, welcome to SF. I suggest you go joina draft! Quit Waha Advertising to add more crew members to your pirate boy team. Dear Hippy, Meow, I am Waha Kitty. You may only refer to me as Waha Kitty. If you call me anything but Waha Kitty, you will be seriously punished. I mean seriously. This is not an empty threat. Also, don't quote me without changing the title of the quote to Waha Kitty. Waha Kitty. You better not leave or I will haunt you IRL. Seriously, not kidding. Anyway, enjoy your stay. You better... With these tough economic times, you might want to consider using a Knife for protection instead of a Gun. You can conceal Knives easier and they are more lethal at close range. Unless you got a Gun to someone's head. Why am I capitalizing Gun and Knife? Just cuz. Is this paragraph relevant to the introduction? Shut up, you ask too many questions. There are many dicks on this forum. Not the kinds that would be appealing to females or homosexual men. Many were weeded out by the travel back in time. Oh yeah, the forum is actually 3 months older than it appears. That's cuz of a bug that caused the site to have amnesia. I think. The forums reopened up in early January 2008, although it was open like 2 months before that. Somebody had server payment issues. Call me Waha Kitty. I know I said this already, but people still seem to call me by my screen name. Only people on my list can call me Knitty. My list is in the "about me" section of my profile. You can still apply to be on the list, but remember to call me Waha Kitty. Man, roommates suck. Me and my roommate always fight about bills, video games, and other friends. He uses up more electricity than me, but I have to pay 50% regardless? He wants to hook up his 360 so I have to take down my Wii? He brings over his friends when I'm having a nice private dinner? Trust me, don't ever get roommates. Don't sell your soul for 50% off rent and utilities... If you do, you will be Waha Punished™. Don't mess with Texas. That's right, I am from Texas. In Texas, you can be killed for a crime you didn't commit. In Texas, you can go the a farm and dance with the cows. In Texas, I saw a guy get shot by an officer for littering. Everything is bigger in Texas. Including my ****. I've never copied & pasted. Never. I like to take my time writing out all my messages to make more of an impression. I am Waha Ashamed of everyone who uses copy & paste. How can I tell? I just do. I don't know why the computer geeks added in a copy & paste feature, but I think that was the worst move ever. I've been here longer than 3 years (with a bunch of breaks in between), so respect mah senioritay. I never really did much. Oh yeah, I helped kick start a Fire Emblem fangame based on users on this site. I disappeared for 2 months and people assumed I was dead. I helped a lot of users get banned. Hell, I don't know why they still keep me here. Don't be a Waha Idiot either. I know some guys in the intro threads that seem to be following me around trying to piss me of. If you become a Waha Idiot and annoy me too much, you will be Waha Punished™. Oh yeah, don't break the forum rules or you will be Waha Punished™. What the mods will do to you is nothing compared to what I will do to you... Why don't I change my display name to Waha Kitty? Why don't you shut up? What? You never asked me? Bullshit, I can read your mind. I know your deepest fears. Like I said, if you go inactive, I will come for you IRL. Only I can do that. How come? Again, you ask too many questions (even though you didn't ask them). Now I must end this rant, because you probably stopped caring about whatever I said. What was the point of writing this message? To test you. If you skipped everything, you can go fuck yourself. But if you took the time to read this, maybe we can be friends and maybe you could call me Knitty. But whatever you do, don't get on my bad side or you will receive Waha Punishment™. What is Waha Punishment™? You don't want to find out. The last guy who received Waha Punishment™ didn't post for an entire day. A week later, he got banned. Surely you do not want to suffer the same fate (or do you?)... Hey, no Waha Weed in the forest. Smoke that shit Far from Far from the Forest, which most people don't even know about. Signed, Waha Kitty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
