SilverHairedFreak25 Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 Also wow, so many people going with Shiori. After the "stealth mission" chapter, people obviously wanna see what other kinds of unique chapters you can dish out. Also, I find Shiori to be a more interesting character than Faratrass. And hotter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCProductions Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 (edited) Yeah, when variety is a selling point, I typically jump on the bandwagon for that. Granted, I didn't like the level of variety in RD, and I feel 7's is just right in terms of variation. However, I feel varied objective variety is MS's main selling point, so I'm going to take the more varied route for that reason. That, and status effects can go DIAF Edited July 15, 2015 by MCProductions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Kamon Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 (edited) Interesting!Anyway, meet a new enemy concept: It's a promoted class. An ultimate glass cannon, capable of dealing serious damage to anyone in your party, double slower units, or even 1RKO some of your weaker ones. Phantoms also are ridiculously resistant to magic, so it's not a good idea to use it against them. Their weakness is their low HP, combined with very low Def (they have low bases, growths, and even low caps: 40 HP and 15 Def). So it's usually best to avoid them and attack them as soon as they're in range with some accurate and powerful weapons. Especially accurate, considered their class skill. Phantom's skill: Ghost Trick (can traverse any tile, even those occupied by walls or enemies, without any terrain penalty. +10 Avo against physical weapons) Some battle calculations: [spoiler=Against Phantoms] Whelp! Even a promoted unit like Cristoph can't do much with magic against these guys... ...It's a whole different matter with physical weapons, though! Unpromoted Valpurga gets a x2 with the Agile Hasta, but even with her 16 Def she'd get a lot of damage in return in case she missed. Shiori's Judelight can't judge them hard enough!

B.Mage Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 So, Summoners are going to be a thing? Or will this be Fa's special ability for when she evolves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 CRISTOPH CAN USE LIGHT MAGIC?! Ahem. . . I don't like status effects, so Shiori's route it is! Also, because I'm fond of Judgelight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.Mage Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) Question for the routes. Are we going to have any characters who are only available on one route until they connect?

X-Naut Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 ... Are those 30/30/30 offensive caps? Oh dear... good thing most physical attacks can floor them, or they would be devastating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Protagonist Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Geez, those things look terrifying. I hope they'll only ever be used sparingly, not in groups, or else I'm dead lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nintales Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Why isn't there an option for both of them? I'd really like to go both. :D I think I'll test Shiori's one first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tragonight Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Why isn't there an option for both of them? I'd really like to go both. :D I think I'll test Shiori's one first.

You know how there's a chapter called "Interlude"? Because it saves there, you can reset the game, then copy that file to another slot, so you have two interludes. Then you can do both routes.

Yeah... Shiori's route looks way more fun, but I just can't stand Shiori as a character... something about her just really grates on me. ;>_> Edited August 6, 2015 by The Magus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayward Winds Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I don't know, Shiori kindof annoyed me a bit to start with. But the way I see it, given what happened in Ch. 8 and the Interlude, she's got more of a character arc to come for the immediate future. After all... [spoiler=Concerning plot twists covered in the Interlude...] At this point, Faratrass has already grown as a person quite a bit; apart from possibly learning what's happened to her country and her foster mother now that the DK's hordes have wandered in and are munching their way through the populace, there's not a lot I can see happening to her for the immediate future. Of course, I could be wrong; Hellios' betrayal may be hurting her deeper than she showed in the Interlude. Shiori on the other hand, has the revelation that she's another Hoikade princess, and we have no idea how she not only ended up the Saint of Pylum, or how the DK got her eyes. Is there some shady deal with the devil in her backstory perhaps, one that gave her his malice-sense? She's yet to come to terms with these facts, and if I recall she's been shoved down a few notches from her previously confident, occaisionally trollish self, to a constant state of uncertainty. Away from Fa, she's got several chapters to go through some development... ...So as much as like Fa, Shiori is currently more intriguing to me. I'll reserve proper judgement of Shiori's personality until I see how things play out (and I know no more than the next person about where the plot's going from here).

CrazyMage Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 What im probably going to do is play them bouth at the same time and pick the one with better stats unless alfred makes alot of changes if you pick fa/shiori after chapter 16? Bad english sorry if i made a mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jariu Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Honestly the game is very good as far as we have available and both routes have their own share of plot points that make them attractive, not to mention gameplay diferences, so picking which to play first is rather hard and I have to wonder how much the late part of the game will change depending on the selected route, considering some of the stuff Alfred has shown to be planning I find it hard to pick only one as both of them have good gameplay and history hooks that push you to play them. Good stuff man, good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good stuff man, good stuff. Thank you very much! :D Yeah, you got pretty much what I wanted to do with the route splits. Request. Can any of you do spell animation scripts? I'd need a hand with some of them. If you're good at them, send me a PM! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the cool guy Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 From chapter 16, the chapters will be the same, just like in Vanilla FE8. FE8 has some major dialogue differences and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thovo Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 I registered an account just want to say thank to you and your team for all of your hard effort. This is about 3 years ago for the last time I played FE and now your hack just brought me back with these interesting memories. I hope you will continue it until the end and I am waiting for the next release. While waiting your next patch, I will probably replay the 7 endings of Chapter 2 :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
