Robert Stewart Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Shining Force's save menu is kinda cute, until you realize you have to read the girl's introduction every time you load a game. Do appreciate being cheered on when I load a save file, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I wouldn't say I get more creative at night. More like I have the "time", then I refuse to stop writing until I finish any given scene.

Benice Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 All right, I'm at chapter 15 (I think) of VW. Uh, do you guys think it'd be possible to finish VW in half an hour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interdimensional Observer Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) If you're asking how long the final battle is, which is outside FYI, it isn't too bad. Kill the named goons to weaken the boss, most of the map is surprisingly and badly nonaggressive, so proceed with safety. The final boss themselves is a doozy of a statstick, even when fully weakened, with enormous HP regeneration. Maybe doable in a half-hour if you proceed quickly and effectively?

null Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Oh, wait. I misunderstood you. I thought you meant finish it from Ch. 15 in a half hour. Idiot me. My bad. Quite possibly, given how you've been able finish maps quickly so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benice Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 What if you wanted to kill Ferdinand von Aegir, but ambush spawns said no and killed Claude? Maybe it's a sign... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codename Shrimp Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 (edited) I just remembered Sylvis has expert That means at Lvl 23 she can use both Esteban's and Christine's prf Ayyyyyy My Sylvis is lvl 20 atm, which means she will become more of a deadly machine, soon Edited October 14, 2020 by Shrimperor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acacia Sgt Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 It's always amusing to see the results of characters being all over the place in CK2. Iceland got brought into the Kingdom of Norway, whose King is an Egyptian. The island is turning culturally Egyptian! XD Pyramids in Iceland when...

Acacia Sgt Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 (edited) But seriously, it is possible to build pyramids in CK2. As part of the Great Works system. I've already built two. A Royal Palace in Toledo, and a Great Library in Cordoba. They're certainly pricey, and the price grows per each Great Work built. It's worth it, though, specially since they give tangible bonuses when converting the save to EU4. That said, Great Pyramids are very restricted in construction. Only for those of Egyptian culture, or reforming a Pagan faith to allow pyramid construction, or be a lunatic. Hmm!

All went according to plan, and Lysithea was into wrath range. Except after the second paladin canto'd away, a group of enemies spawns right there, in the middle of enemy phase, resulting in a dead Lysithea. I am fairly certain that it was a glitch, since they reinforced in the middle of the enemy phase? I dunno, but they were ambushes all the same. (A generic paladin says that the alliance will fight with the empire, to which Ladislava says something like "Oh great, Alliance peeps are here, let's get 'em!")

It has reinforcements, yeah, but even on maddening they weren't ambush spawns hmm (except the ones who appear near Ladislava) The only Alliance reinforcements that appear in VW are that mage and his squad.

I don't object to it existing, but I am not okay with it justifying ambush spawns or other unfair shenanigans. FE6's remake would not be better than FE6 if they simply added a turnwheel mechanic and left ambush spawns.

None of FE6's difficulties should have ambushes. Ambush spawns don't make a game better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FE6 only needs to up the hitrates of everything by ten, nerf throne/gate avoid to 15, remove ambush spawns and fix the good ending requirements to be a really great game. I swear, if they mess up an FE6 remake by adding Mark or something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
