They have no story, unlike the BS FE stuff. I guess if we continue the model of having repeatable skirmish maps in the main campaign, then Trial Maps would feel superfluos. Although, Engage did had Trial Maps, in a way. Just not gated to the post-game. 10 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: I used the number 25 with Roy as the only constant to allude to Melee. Because Roy truly isn't a Fire Emblem character.😝 But he'll always be our boy! Well, the manga didn't introduce that many, at least that could count as "playable", hahaha.

Armagon Posted yesterday at 03:34 AM Share Posted yesterday at 03:34 AM Bank doesn't wanna process my payment for the Versailles tickets. It might be over. To be clear, I'm trying to get the tickets that grant access to the entire estate instead of just the individual parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interdimensional Observer Posted yesterday at 04:06 AM Share Posted yesterday at 04:06 AM -Using explosives to trigger earthquakes that cause magma to rise to the surface.🤔 Who wrote this manual? More Terra Nil screenshots... Spoiler Region three is the polar landscape. That's cool to me.😃 I didn't realize that creating lava on the high ground would cause it to descend like a river to the lower ground.😮 Though I do need the lava here, considering wind turbines aren't an option and I have to rely on geothermal plants for this map. Though I can't overdo it on the hot stuff, else I excessively destroy the space needed for the biomes. Triggering the conditions for snowfall to occur (Humidity must be sufficiently high, Toxicity sufficiently low, Temperate below -5*C) really cleans up the map. The restorative powers of precipitation. (Though how does solid water cleanse the environment when in a polar climate it shouldn't always immediately wash away?) -The aurora is always pretty. (Sounds silly locking its appearance behind near-zero Toxicity though.😛) The Tundra biome tripped me up. For some reason I don't understand, it demands the higher ground.😕 On my first attempt of this map I accidentally covered the high ground with Boreal Forest, and decided to just redo the map instead of waste resources burning the Boreal Forest and then growing Tundra in its place. Jeez narwhals need it cold.🤨 (I was going to say "why does it have to be below freezing when they live in the ocean?". -But then I remembered that 0*C is the freezing point of freshwater, and the ocean is salty.) This map had me playing around with the Temperature, unlike the prior three where I just watched it go up. First, it inevitably goes up as you bring up the lava and plop down geothermal plants. -But if you want to optionally trigger glacier formation, you'll need to drop the temperature back down. Yet I had to raise it again to trigger more bonus conditions (the effects of which remain unlocked afterwards, no matter what Temperature/Humidity are changed to), some of which inevitably happened from the controlled burns I was doing. And then I had drop the temp once more reach the 12/12 happy animals requirement. Humidity also had to be controlled, getting it too high too soon for bonus conditions would prevent me from creating Tundra (not sure if there is any IRL reasoning for it). Generating solid rock from lava and then growing Lichen on them is fascinating. Yet I ended up generating too much useless rock as I didn't understand the requirements that enable irrigators to be converted into colorful lichen-growing machines. The game was too obtuse.🤨 A closeup of polar bears, moose, penguins, and some geese as it snows. This game isn't the prettiest, but it looks nice enough.😀 And it's difficult to see, but there are Kelp Forests beneath the water, can't ignore the marine world entirely.

You can play it as a kind of puzzler (running out of 🍃 points means failure), or you can pick a lower difficulty and simply relax with it. I saw the game got positive reviews when it released and kept it in mind. I know it's not exactly my norm 😅, but I've played games where I enjoy beautiful (virtual) environments, and the sci-fi fan in me likes the concept of engaging in restorative terraformation.🌱 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interdimensional Observer Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago A little more Terra Nil... Spoiler A map that actually shows prior human habitation. With power plants and lines still functional. I like this, though at the same time, I was disappointed to see this region is "Continental" for its climate. No Desert?🌵🥺 -The world map shows only four small continents, each with its own distinct climate: Temperate, Tropical, Polar, Continental. Though I can spin the globe around, which appears strangely empty on the other side. I can pray the dunes lay in distant lands that'll unlock later. Using the rusted steel of towering buildings as trellises for bamboo forests. A novel idea. I completed the map, I fulfilled all the bonus conditions -but I'm not happy. This map could've been prettier.🧐 I think it could use more Bamboo Forest, though I burnt some for a quicker Temperature increase than burning less dense vegetation. The issue is that even if you recycle the Bamboo Nursery, you can't plant another in its former spot, nor can you add new skyscrapers (obviously). So you have to designate the area around skyscrapers as Bamboo territory (detoxifying as much of the ground around them before planting the Nursery, as natural passive reproductive expansion of anything isn't a thing in this game), and put the Deciduous Forests -which can be used to spawn the Fynbos (yes this is a real word) biome- elsewhere. Thankfully, the animal species that live here mostly like grassland Greenery. Only one species really care about Bamboo Pandas!🐼 -And since the skyscrapers exist on this map, I'll presume that humanity once densely lived here, that this is a former metropolis. That somehow makes me more willing to accept a not as vibrant renewed environment. --- https://www.gematsu.com/2024/10/famitsu-sales-9-23-24-9-29-24 Looks like Trails sales in Japan are merely stable, reading the comments.

From speaking with people tho it seems that the Problem is Kuro 2, not Kai, because almost everyone agrees that if Kai was Kuro 2 it would've been peak or something, but the stalling, pacing, bloat and Kondo lying seems to be getting on everyone's nerves Also seems Gameplay is the hardest it has been since Sky, which means i won't be THAT pissed off if Arma somehow loves P3 Edited 15 hours ago by Codename Shrimp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some formerly-antagonistic bird boy you mean? -Not that I could care less who it is. I choose to be ice-cold to Trails for the sake of keeping myself away from the unceasing epic until the end has finally arrived. I didn't bother taking a look when it was recently revealed Kai's cosmetic DLC includes bunny suits for the guys.

Reminding me of how I read that Mega Man Battle Network 5 had bad sales despite being a return to form, supposedly because MMBN4 was terrible. Kondo wouldn't be the only liar in the industry. I heard something about the Tekken head dood insisting Heihachi was dead for good and wouldn't be returning in 8 ...only to make him wave 1 DLC.

While it probably still connects with Kai, it hardly actually advances the plot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
