Rinoa Plays: FE8


Recommended Posts

OK...

This run have any special rules, it's "pick a units", or something?

It's my first difficult run (but i know it isnt too hard) so I'll just limit myself to no Seth at the moment.

So post that. It would be also nice to know which route you will chose. And that's on hard mode, right?

And don't be afraid. Most of screenshot runs on this forum don't have anything with ltc, and don't present any amazing tactic. So no one will pay attention if you when you will do something not as effective as possible.

[spoiler=wow prologue so tough]

Sacred Stones is probably my favorite GBA game. That easy save is my brother's, but I won't delete it so...

yuzJ5al.png

hard modo

Also, I won't bother to put too much story because I don't have time to shot every little piece of dialogue.

tgAeBRF.png

I'm sure you know this story, but there was an evil demon guy, and he was defeated.

The End.

what, no the end?

VFdKZEk.png

Wow, I'm stunned.

aJF0YCG.png

Renais, Frelia, Grado, Jehanna, Rausten, and Carcino.

They are all things, but :Kappa:

tMPWq9v.png

We don't need him, we have Seth! who's on the bench

nupNJtv.png

Yes. Seth. He's a uber tier unit.

6aF50U4.png

Take Eirika and run. now get off my daughter

86P5RgO.png

Eirika runs. She's also a dog apparently.

I KNOW THE IMPLICATIONS OF THAT

KKiadPy.png

FIGHTS

lNww3GK.png

Eirika takes the two pawns and moves to face this guy.

WjQYm1H.png

She can't take this guy apparently.

GfieqhK.png

HEAL ALL THE WOUNDS

LuRC3zW.png

EIRIKA IS A GRACEFUL SWAN

I have no idea why that one is cut off but w/e.

e8KQqKd.png

blahblah defeat

4H1LsaQ.png

GAIN ALL THE STRENGTH

Zs3BfoK.png

Strength matters, but not as much as Speed. Thwomps can go die. just not gilliam

NteeB4t.png

Where have I seen this before?

A country starts a war for no apparent reason? I think this is a new topic for Fire Emblem.

WuW2bGy.png

yes, because i'm going eirika route

Not because I'm chicken, but because I've never played her's before.

Chapter 1 - franz is tasty

Tune in next time - AKA Wednesday - for more FE8.

Tell me how to improve my commentary because I'd very much appreciate it. :0

I thought the topic title was at first "Rinoa plays FF8".

That'd be a staggering length lol. also i just started a run about 2 days ago so i'd rather not reset

Tana is the princess of Frelia and a bit of a damsel in distress. Her problem IMO is that her portrait does not fit, like, any moment in this chapter or any chapter.

like lilina or lugh

Sk5y15Q.pngNusfz5X.png8YyrlpQ.png

This saint of a man does not break down Mulan's front door or lance his face.

no stop i am not a citizen of zozo

4PmOABB.png

nMGcSbR.png

One of the few lines I cared enough to catalog ended up messed up. Way to teach me to not care about dialogue game >_>.

PLDKHAM.png

is country a euphemism for body

rjmqbUL.png yes it is

Also Tana's portrait is still derp. Even when she's set to be Gheb'd by Brequet. >_<

rXXU7y2.png

i have never seen mulan

help me

c6S9uMe.png

Eirika is sickened by his suggestion that she strips Seth.

LEgIw8M.png

TUTORIAL

xnRveIJ.png5AmfL56.pngSHeTHIi.png

I took a lot of pics of this guy for whatever reason.

niyAKlE.png

i am not rewarded

28YMBNf.png

Franz and Gilliam join but I missed their conversation.

Franz is the drafting god, but he's good in regular runs too. Gilliam is TOO THWOMP

cpB4fDM.png

no seriously, it's a white image

9vQcbub.pngrnQVXy1.png

Eirika, Gilliam, and Franz mop up

TmkTZr7.pnghQz3h8u.png

while Seth runs from the re-inforcements.

now i cant stop listening to ffxiii music

now i want to play ffxiii

They chat it up

MJxZj5S.png

AND FRANZ BECOMES MORE THWOMP

NkJtWVa.png

NOT ENOUGH THWOMP

ymRV7b4.png

oATxEgz.png

4h2fCt0.png

He takes a lot to take down. >_>

zJFAZgz.png

Can he do it?

no he cant

CYgAgxU.png

0VPHDRt.png

wow

very hp

wow

g5DdghS.png

tana don't give no

PUiLjEc.pngLiKJ8Jl.pngOu8oSJs.png

Ephraim brother-blocks Eirika even from far away lands.

LyNxb3s.pnglz8Rw9J.png

everyone wants a piece of dat blue hair

I6dOMZD.pngGWmN731.png

Eirika is exhilarated

AFkZI5T.pngDGcMJX8.pngbBs96eG.png

x9uzDKT.png

I only screened, like, half of their conversation.

xr6zzEt.pngkfIq850.pngukrvOtv.png

AXJGBoG.png

With Moulder and Gilliam here, Eirika can continue her Harem of Old Men, Knights, and Old Men Knights

no one cares about vanessa

gkhw69l.png

PHAT LUTE

n81sWfP.png6vKw1jD.png

Emperors and Kings suddenly turning against their allies in FE is as common as crystals in Final Fantasy. :P

Doesn't necessarily have to have a special "gimmick" called out. Each person's playthroughs tend to have something unique to them, wether it be in the choice of their characters, support-combinations (since affinities vary) and some editions like "LP"-like stuff.

I was just surprised. That's all.

[spoiler=Chapter 2]

vvmT4HK.png

*insert immature joke here*

Anyway, the plot maybe be a little out of order, but it works. I got a lot of talking this time.

ZrfucHa.pngCL4FnEY.pngJBD88SJ.pngJBD88SJ.png

obligatory expostion

Yx2RCxl.pngbAnTrSN.pngc7nRTLS.pngawFJgOq.png

Vanessa has bad memories of bowmen or something. They also talk behind her back.

HnSuo3K.pngJbz4zQH.png3OmsFvl.png

Obligatory Bandit Chapter is probably the best way to describe this chapter >_>

WRDF8sQ.pngxiBjG5a.png

Father and Son. Garcia and Ross. Fighter and Fighter-lite.

I'll get into them later.

Anyway, the bandits ransack their village, which means they're homeless.

yaaaaayyyyyy

i5M4Z3J.png9Oqg4Pb.png

Ross is hurt.

zpYvs0x.pnginxUFrT.png4rfs7wy.png

Vanessa has shown more expression so far than Mr. Mustache or Lady Tealhead. That's fine by my book.

of course I probably just have a lot of pics of her blinking but still

Anyway, Eirika wants to help these poor unfortunate souls, so she gets da boulder on healing Ross.

KHmjI3e.pngV8gFoWk.png

Moulder is a terrible healer who makes an okay Dark Bishop. Not really that noteworthy, as a better healer comes in, like, 3 chapters.

Vanessa is probably the best character in the game, but I don't feel like using her.

i know im going to try with marisa

I also know I should have pics of the starting positions, but oh well.

Villages:

D5X00B3.pngIKvAU9x.png

Elixir.

Village 2:

OaMYS8B.pngyMr02zZ.png9zvEXkK.png

Sure it is. And I'm using Moulder. Obviously. :P

BKoUrD6.png

yay scream time

ofCv9C0.pngphv34xF.png06CzxxL.png

She gives us a waxing philosophical and a Red Gem.

PJjhfPS.png

2Ze3BNh.png

Our goal is to rescue Father and Son here, but Son has 5 HP left, so Moulder needs to staff him.

Garcia can hold his own though.

vOpxlPM.pngMhFchov.pngN7GwmK1.png5KTXt0B.png

Pictured: Recruiting Son

Wv1StKZ.png

Son has a name, and it's Ross. He's interesting as one of 3 trainees. He gets 10 extrea levels.

The problem is, he barely ever is better than his old man, so he's not worth training.

9EiOfjr.png

Moulder da Boulder heals him anyway.

Vanessa then totes Garcia around to Ross and he's recruited.

awzlxTS.png

Meh. He's the best fighter in the GBA games though. Bartre in FE6 is a close second.

Better than Ross/10

h3iw2a8.pngGkQ42i5.pngbeoBsFc.png

People die. Okayish levels are attained.

k5w3487.png

whoa omg

who are you and what have you done with eirika

sOjU1b6.png

There is an armory. I bought a Iron Lance and Sword.

hk6vKi3.png

Oops. Lost the village AND almost had to reset.

abmwCO3.png

Seems good.

wgRRLeI.pngbAcz0Q6.pngri1TLa1.png

Franz gets STRONK-er.

Prepare for words. And lots of them.

72eNz96.pngzfUDaoP.png76yiWpm.png

Seth, being the great benchwarmer that he is, knows a lot. Eirika scoffs at nerdy ness.

VWLlB4E.pngwalbfpC.pngBf1BgDf.png

I have nothing witty to say.

hOuXhoI.png

No, you're a journeyman.

NCD8r5D.pngdGcEuGi.pngSpyGVTj.png

no

rvqUfeE.png

Boom. Instant Garcia.

uCeEiMK.png

eUqpjQk.png

Eirika has flashbacks to a time where everything is beige.

VWWnrhg.png94qaQ14.png

Bluepants McPickpocket strikes again.

zccxaAk.png

Actually, do worry.

They never get it back the end end of story

Pm3I8Uz.png

What not the end?

Wow, that took forever.

I'm sorry, but I can't continue this run. I don't have the time to delagate to updating this, and I really wanted to play through FE8 at a brisker pace.

I'll just post the end results after I finish the game. I figure that'd be fine.
