Tanner Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Currently, I'm attempting Lunatic-Classic along with Hard-Classic. Compared to the casual-plays I did when I started FE:A for the first time, It appears like it takes longer. Either because: 1. I'm overreacting because I worry too much about my units. 2. I'm only (was, now I started a new game) on Chapter 5. Normal-Classic appeared too easy, then it was Hard-Classic. It could be me, but the keeping-the-units-alive difficulty just jumped from low to a good decent highness of difficulty. Personally, which one do you think you can blow through faster? Classic or Casual? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PM ME MARIANNE ART Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Casual- You don't have to worry about units dying while in classic you have to strategize. I play on lunatic/casual, just for the saving anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Casual I don't even bother to count how many time I need to reset in last minute because Sully failed to dodge that 45% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Casual's faster, but classic is for men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanner Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 Casual's faster, but classic is for men. ... Which is why I play it. The thing is, it's too much pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HK Motendra Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Definitely Casual. I don't like the though of losing any characters unless I can live without him, or it can't be helped (In my classic run, Libra decided to charge at the enemy before I could recruit him and ended up dying. Not my fault there, sorry you had to waste your life).Furthermore, I'm still stuck at CH 11 due to having to protect Olivia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkhead Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Casual's faster, but classic is for men. No. Classic is for normal people, Casual is for wussies and/or begginers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquakat Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 No. Classic is for normal people, Casual is for wussies and/or begginers. Or for people with stressful lives that want to not chuck their expensive 3ds across the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Wright Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 If anyone can blow through classic faster than casual they're playing casual wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carter Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Definitely Casual. You never have to worry about losing units, since they'll never "die." And if they do happen to die in the chapter, they'll come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomichael Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Or for people with stressful lives that want to not chuck their expensive 3ds across the room. That means me. I love playing on classic, but I hate when my units go.. And when, they do, I get extremely mad. xP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PM ME MARIANNE ART Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Whenever someone dies for me, classic or casual, I reset. That's why lunatic/casual is still hard for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerker Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Casual is faster. Why is this even a poll. The answer to this question is so blisteringly obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I guess if you were ONE HUNDRED PERCENT TACTICIAN PRIME you could vote "they're about the same" just to look like a smug douche? (fun fact: the only time i played classic fe13 was for a draft once) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airship Canon Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) If you're just exploiting dirty tricks to blow thru the game at maximum speed Classic or Casual doesn't matter. (This entails mostly MU solo. Which means game over if your unit dies) If you're on Normal, aren't doing Apo or fighting streetpasses, Classic or Casual doesn't matter (unless you're... pretty damn bad, TBQH). (Normal is too easy. If you're having units die, well, something's wrong) Otherwise, Casual is faster, if only slightly.

Florete Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Casual is slower if you use battle saves but never make a mistake. By all accounts, they really should be the same speed unless you lose enough good units to make a Classic run take longer, or if you reset.

By all accounts, they really should be the same speed unless you lose enough good units to make a Classic run take longer, or if you reset. I'd figure the person playing slowly and using battle saves to avoid making any mistakes would, if forced to play Classic, ...also play slowly and probably reset for the mistakes he prevented by playing Casual. On the other hand, the person who blazed Classic and just #YOLOd it up would probably ...also blaze Casual and #YOLO it up. In other words, a wash sometimes and weighted in favor of the casual in others. Yeah, I guess I could see how "about the same" could be a fair choice.

Thor Odinson Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Depends on how you play. If you don't want to lose units but is reckless in your playstyle, casual is definitely faster. If you're anal like me and will reset upon unit loss because if I lose anyone then the strategy is awful (this is a non-LTC context), or plays planned and carefully, then it honestly doesn't matter at all.

Slinky Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Casual is obviously faster, but i always play on classic because well... It doesn't feel right at all playing casual for me, not having to carefully think out stuff. Lots of people i know play Casual just so they can save, i guess they're at less mercy of the RNG.

Loki Laufeyson Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 No. Classic is for normal people, Casual is for wussies and/or begginers. Or for people who enjoy a more relaxed playstyle and like to have fun. I dont like resetting. Especially after getting an amazing level up on someone like Libra and then someone gets owned with that 24% hit rate from an enemy. (or a Counter unit has Miracle...) Or for people with stressful lives that want to not chuck their expensive 3ds across the room. Theres also this. I like my 3DS. As for the topic at hand, yeah, Casual is faster due to less worries.

PrinceLeaf Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 (edited) I have never played casual and can tell you that its faster to play than Classic. My brother played FE Awakening on casual and would tell me every time Sumia had died. Then he would say, "its ok, she comes back next chapter, then she will hit the pavement again". I am a perfectionist, and I play classic. If anyone of my units die, I always reset. Edited July 29, 2013 by PrinceLeaf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faye Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I wonder if OP is serious with their question. No. Classic is for normal people, Casual is for wussies and/or begginers. Or for people who enjoy a more relaxed playstyle and like to have fun. I dont like resetting. Especially after getting an amazing level up on someone like Libra and then someone gets owned with that 24% hit rate from an enemy. (or a Counter unit has Miracle...) This. God forbid people have fun with their games. :/ I'm a long-time FE fan, and I jumped to Casual right away. I'd never have touched the stupid nightmare that was Lunatic if it weren't for Casual mode. You get a fun challenge without the frustration. That's a big bonus in my eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Casual Mode was great, since I could throw anyone I wanted to into the battle. And besides, I don't have ALL DAY to waste my time twiddling my thumbs on some 3DS! I need to waste time with my friends and be elsewhere! But yeah, I think Casual is more calm, and easier/faster to complete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
