Even if it completely destroys any and all challenge the bosses could pose (on Normal, anyway, and against the bosses I've fought with her so far. Might change later, but we'll see). That's on Falcom for making her OP! She's matching her namesake, at least. XD Not that I mind, because I'm having a blast playing as her! You want cheese? This isn't even the best weapon in the game btw. Name a more iconic duo than Inti Creates games and OP movesets.

Actually, it wouldn't even be "Japanese-inspired", would it? Yeah, I suppose I explained myself poorly. It sounds very Japanese, and while it isn't bad per se, I can understand that someone could find a bit "uninspired", so to speak. Like the Hoshido music lacks its own identity because it sounds so generically Japanese. And, of course, there's also the possibility of just not liking that style. Not that I agree, personally, but I can see the argument being made here. 4 minutes ago, Armagon said: Then again, Hispanics love Speedy Gonzales and he's stereotyped as fuck so i stereotypes aren't necessarily bad.

Granted, Cold Steel 2 already derailed that train, so I expected Cold Steel 3's story to suck. I saw that trainwreck coming a mile away.

Saint Rubenio Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Well. At least her death in this route wasn't as completely idiotic as it was in Conquest.

Saint Rubenio Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Dwyer just got a perfect level up. They laughed when I said I would make Paladin Dwyer a reality. Look at him now! Among my best troops! Unironically, too. His res and his defense both are through the roof, he's quickly become my main tank lol. 2 minutes ago, Dayni said: Honestly, I despise the handling of story Xander because he's just such a contradictory dick in story versus in supports.

Interdimensional Observer Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 (edited) Looks like I didn't lose my phone after all. Found it only after hurling hundreds of invectives that aren't exactly wrong at myself. 😅 Also finished the medieval siege book, it ended abruptly without a conclusion, the last chapter being on the inhumanities of medieval siege warfare. When food starts running low but you the defender continue to persist and resist, expel the noncontributing citizens: elderly, children, the weak. Maybe the besiegers side will let them through and feed them. Or, maybe the hapless civilians will wanted by neither side and left to starve and die in the middle of the battlefield. And it turns out setting fire to a city surrounding a fortress on fire is called strategy if you have no hopes of defending said city and wish to deny it to your enemy before they start their siege. -- On the matter of traditional Japanese OSTs, I offer these: Edited August 3, 2021 by Interdimensional Observer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Rubenio Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Hans's map was another great map. Not nearly as difficult as Camilla, but it was a quick and tight one. I had to push forward without a moment's rest, lest the reinforcements overwhelmed us. Then I had Azama hex Hans just to spite the game. Turns out it wasn't even necessary - Setsuna one-rounded him at full HP. ...Yeah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooks Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 5 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: ...Nah, just messin' with ya, you do what you want. Maybe you could do a generics only run of Conquest, and finally discover the greatness of Haitaka for yourself. Seriously though, do yourself a favor and get Haitaka next time you play Conquest. If nothing else, Haitaka. He may be a bit of a pain to capture, but he's such a wonderful unit. He even has a personal, Seal Defense! Might as well be personal, since nobody else can get it other than generic spear masters and Corrin. I’ve gotten Haitaka before. But I’ll do it again, sure. I think I benched him after chapter 10 last time. 4 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Camilla please. Relax. You're giving the hard route a run for its money.

Saint Rubenio Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Pffffffffffffffffffffft... Did Iago really just get subdued by untrained Sakura? Ahahahahahahahaha... Okay, this guy's the best. This map looks a tad less interesting than the past two, but hey, I'll take it. 2 minutes ago, Sooks said: I’ve gotten Haitaka before. But I’ll do it again, sure. I think I benched him after chapter 10 last time. A lot of people seem to make that choice. I guess it's okay, but seriously, the guy's super good. Decent bulk, supreme offense, Seal Defense in a route where you could really use it and only Corrin could get it other than him, early defense rallies, Seal Speed later on which is ALSO something only he and spear master Corrin can get... He's just so fucking good. Lack of supports and a mount are really his only flaws. Even his lack of personal is overshadowed by the fact that his class's skillset is excellent and he basically gets it all to himself in this route. 5 minutes ago, Sooks said: Birthright.txt Glad you’re realizing the true greatness of Birthright instead of assuming its just the easy route and never touching it like… every other fan of Conquest… Not gonna lie, once I got past the shock of Camilla being extremely hard, I've been loving this endgame. In fact... honestly? I think I'm kinda liking it better than Conquest's. At the very least, Camilla's map was, while really tough, way less of an insufferable hodgepodge than Takumi's Fun Castle. And the boss wasn't tougher than Henning while getting two different proc skills to erase my units. That also helped. 7 minutes ago, Sooks said: So very based. Good job Ruben.
