Acacia Sgt Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Yeah, I was making a joke about the whole Internal Data numbering of the games and how fans number the games. But it's true that SoV is FE16 in its internal data. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like how IntSys hasn't forgotten Archanea Saga even though everyone else did. ...Not me, though, but I tend to forget it was a separate game from FE12, since that's where I got to experience it. Still, difficult to forget the game where I get to kill myself. Edited April 15, 2021 by Saint Rubenio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acacia Sgt Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Just now, Benice said: Was BSFE FE5, then? It has no number in the data, best I know. According to the article, they might count it as the 6th game. Internally, the numbering jumps from 12 to 14, since the cancelled Wii game is what would've been FE13. PoR is also FE8 since development began before Sacred Stone's did, but that one is also FE8 in the data, likely since it was the one that was going to get released first.

Man spent three years working his ass off on the translation, with only a programmer and a handful of playtesters to help him, in exchange for absolutely nothing. We really cannot thank him enough.

BrightBow Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 BS Fire Emblem... Binding Blade... Obviously the actual FE6 is Tear Ring Saga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooks Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 (edited) We could just number them by my objectively correct opinions, so fe1 is Three Houses for being the best and fe16 is Gaiden. Obviously the best answer. Edited April 15, 2021 by Sooks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrightBow Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Blazing Blade is basically just a bad remake of Tear Ring Saga anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose FE6 just so happens to be the game where they started lying about the numbers. You know, even before I knew the game was lying about hit rates, I could still feel that a 20% hit from a Sleep Staff had much higher odds then a 20% hit from a Steel Lance or whatever.

Sooks Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 I mean does Mimikyu really count? It’s not an electric type, it’s not yellow, it’s (potentially) not a rodent... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's aesthetic is that it's jealous of Pikachu and is hoping others will notice it when it takes to looking like Pikachu and hiding it's true form. Which must make everyone wonder how there's a whole species of Pokemon that do it, but considering it's popularity it worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. That’s unique. Besides, we who actually like Mimikyu and don’t think Incineroar really deserves a spot in Smash should stick together. 23 minutes ago, Dayni said: Which must make everyone wonder how there's a whole species of Pokemon that do it, but considering it's popularity it worked.

Interdimensional Observer Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 (edited) Without Multiheal, 70+ damage per turn to everyone is too much to survive and fight back. With Multiheal, and Oomph and Sap letting me deal ~150 damage each with the Hero and my Martial Artist, Baramos was roasted like the evil turkey it is. I don't think I over-grinded, it's more the boss difficulty is an on/off switch. Neat "twist" for the era. Now if only the game gave me a map of the new place, it's why I came up for a breather. I'll do the dungeons tomorrow or something. 30 minutes ago, Dayni said: It's aesthetic is that it's jealous of Pikachu and is hoping others will notice it when it takes to looking like Pikachu and hiding it's true form.

Jealousy as genetic aspect is peculiar, although general mimicry of appearance, is a thing IRL. See the coral snake, there are species of snake that look fairly similar to it, but aren't visually identical. These copycats are hypothesized to look like the species they try to pretend to be, because those other species are dangerous and avoided by would-be predators, while the imitators are less able to defend themselves from predators who would eat them. 2 hours ago, Acacia Sgt said: Internally, the numbering jumps from 12 to 14, since the cancelled Wii game is what would've been FE13.

This is true, but Mimikyu is bizarre in that it builds it's artificial disguise on it's own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
