Draco Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 And New Mystery I think. I picked SoS though, it's the one that's the best aged, I think. It's also my second favorite overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerosabers Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Thracia because it's a huge asshole and I find it funny. Why two topics though instead of just one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintessence Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) Holy shit quad posts, there's an edit and multi quote button fyi. My favorite is FE4. Good story, interesting characters, its mechanics suck arse but they can be improved. And omg its music is goddamn great.

Florete Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I'd never really thought about this before. Interesting. Genealogy would be my favorite of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Mir Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) Mystery would be my favorite of these, in large part because I don't think it has any glaring weaknesses. Being two games in one helps too. Edited October 14, 2015 by Levant Colthearts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leif Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) I love Thracia 776. I adore the graphics, the gameplay, and the maps! There were so many diverse classes too. This was hard because I enjoyed Genealogy as well. However, I very much disliked the huge maps since I would waste so many turns traveling to one castle, then having to track ALL the way back to home base, like the Silesia map in Chapter 4. Thracia felt more like the Fire Emblem we know now (small maps and all). My biggest complaint with Thracia 776 is the music, I loathe the enemy battle theme (you know when a generic attacks you on their turn). Aside form a few tracks here and there, it really wasn't as epic or awesome as FE4's. Staffs having a chance to miss and permanent status effects are a bit of a pain; the fog of war could have been a tad better too; I wish I could see where I was going! There were also unused portions of data that I wish were fully implemented... :( Other than that, it was really challenging, introduced awesome gameplay mechanics and had kickass defend objective maps (Tahra chapter anyone?)! I liked the fatigue system since it promoted the use of other units instead of benching them forever. Why all the Binding Blade love? I felt that when compared to FE4-5, it was very weak! No skills? No capturing? No defend maps? No Fire, Thunder, or Wind Magic triangle? Strength/magic split? I'm not invalidating your opinions, I am merely surprised since I believe FE4-5 are much stronger than FE6.

Naglfar94 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Genealogy of the Holy War all the way however there are 2 more favorites in the JP series that I enjoy I liked Mystery of the Emblem a lot and Gaiden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverCrusader Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Binding Blade was ok the missions were pretty boring though with all the sieze objectives and the sucky acc probs, its not something i'd play for fun myself Thracia is a pretty hard game but I can see how people could like it, I played it a good bit and had a lot of fun with it . Ive gotta pick Genealogy of the Holy War with its 2 gen system, the huge maps,skills,and lots of other stuff this game is really #1 imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magical Glace Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Technically, that's all of them Binding Blade, for having my favorite maps in the series, and hitting just the right amount of simple without having no mechanics. And Wolt. Wolt is a very important factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterIceTeaPeach Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Thracia 776, because it introduced so many (new) game mechanics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soledai Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 My answer is simple enough. Genealogy of the Holy War. Story's good, characters too, and holy blood is always cool. Additionally, large maps aren't and will never be a problem for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gradivus. Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) FE12, but FE6 comes to a pretty close second, it's my 2nd fav in the series too. EDIT: Why all the Binding Blade love? I felt that when compared to FE4-5, it was very weak! No defend maps? Defend maps are pretty boring imo and if they're done well, we're sort of talking about exceptions. I wouldn't be surprised if FE5 C14 is good considering what I hear about FE5 maps, but I don't think Defend maps are important. FE4 doesn't have any either, FE8 has only one in each playthrough (which one depends on the route split), DSFEs and Awakening have none. Heck, FE4 is seize-only aswell, except the multiple thrones per map gimmick is only present in one map of FE6. No skills? I never cared much about skills personally, I barely used any when playing through the tellius games so they don't make or break a game imo. I read they're more important in the Jugdral games, but that's a matter of gameplay focus where preferences tend to be pretty subjective. No capturing? Can't exactly comment on this, I definitely need to play thracia (and the other pre-FE6 FEs too), but most other FE games don't have them either so it's more like an FE5-exclusive feature. (It still is a point in its favor, but I don't think it can be held against FE6 in particular) No Fire, Wind and Thunder triangle? Why would it matter? As is, WTA/WTD with tomes rarely matters towards anything besides accuracy either, and most good magic users are fairly accurate anyway. Strength/Magic split? Given the GBAFE weapons, a str/mag split wouldn't have added much, given that weight is determined by con anyway. The only difference it would've made is towards Light Brand and the guaranteed 10 dmg can be handier depending on the situation anyway so it's very minor and I don't mind it at all. I mainly like FE6 because I think HM is done pretty well, it's quite fun to play (and replay) considering the enemy stats never are too huge or too low and it doesn't get boring either for me since I like to play at a somewhat quick, but not necessarily bumrush pace. Some stuff I like to use are status staves which fit well into the game design, long-range warp and buyable boots. It's more simplistic, but it's still pretty solid and has good aspects that aren't there in the jugdral games, much like they have some features that FE6 lacks. Edited October 14, 2015 by Gradivus.

SSbardock84 Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 The only two I've played here and have beaten are New Mystery of the Emblem and Binding Blade. Binding Blade I preferred better so that ones my favorite. I wish I could've played New Mystery in english though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
