I think the Frozen Not-London Bridge stage is going to be the first non-boss level in KatFL that I don't try to get all the Waddle Dees on before moving to the next stage. The no-damage double Wild Frosty challenge (which prevents me from seeing the last one I missed) is too easy to fail. It makes me wish the menu let me reload from the last checkpoint instead of having to exit the stage entirely and redo all three mini-bosses beforehand. I'll come back when I've upgraded the copy abilities more. And speaking of, Meta Knight Sword and Dragon Fire have started putting some real oomph into this upgrade system. The firebird fireball midair dash hasn't been a thing since Fire-Fire in Kirby 64, I enjoy seeing it again.🔥

It could be some maps don't differ too much outside certain seasons or even specific periods within seasons, like an area that generally has a cold snap early in spring could have snow you don't expect it to if you didn't have the knowledge, or stormy periods that makes your fliers useless as you said (they could also alter projectile ranges, making them more effective going downwind and losing range if you shoot upwind). Rain could affect bow users because their strings are wet, forcing them to limit their shots or continually deal with cooldown and wait for a raincloud to pass. Harsh sun could make armours easier to knock out due to dehydration or give increased accuracy at further ranges as the field in the distance is clear (or if there's humidity lose that boost due to light mist). Not to mention anima magics could take advantage of all these to boost their power. Course, there's more fun with this if the battlefield is not uniformally affected by these things and you could have to get your units into particular areas to defend a gate or have to move from place to place for your armours to take shade in a sunny stage or avoid rain and heavy winds.

Thank you for more ideas!🤓

I hadn't even thought of magic interactions, as basic as that should be. If we're going to play with nature at its fullest, we'd probably want to go so far as to add "geomancy" in some way. Map manipulation via magic. Probably a little more flexible and interactive than Dragon Veins were, but let's not make it so you can convert an intricately designed jungle map to an empty rectangle with a dozen casts of "Wildfire".

Physical units would feel left out if did that though. We could perhaps assign "season/element affinities" that strengthen or weaken characters somewhat based on the season, but I didn't like the horoscopes of Final Fantasy Tactics, so I'm cautious on doing that, even if FE used to have support-related Affinities. Alternatively, Valkyria Chronicles does often gave characters little boosts or penalties based on the terrain- some people are bothered by sand, others love being near plants. TearRing Saga did have "*Insert Map Terrain Type Here* Fighter" skills, which were a pretty bland and generic, +1 Move and some Hit & Evade, but they did exist.

As you mention armor units, you could also tie seasonal strengths and weaknesses into the classes themselves instead of or in addition to the characters. Armors would probably be at their strongest in temperate spring and autumn campaigns, while weakest in the summer. To make Pegasi and Wyverns different, I would consider making Pegasi anti-Summer pro-Winter and Wyverns anti-Winter pro-Summer, aligning with Jugdrali geography of their species (although Tellius would suggest the opposite). If bow cavalry were to go the Central Eurasian aesthetic again, I would consider making them the hardiest of classes, not particularly strong in any season or weather, but not weak in any either. From what I once heard, the Mongols had no problems invading Russia, unlike 19th and 20th century attempts, in part (Russia was also very very disunited at the time) because winter meant frozen rivers their fast-moving cavalry army could dash across.

The question would be- which classes are weak in spring and autumn? I feel like you would have to invent excuses here. Although IRL, spring was traditionally a season of agricultural hyperactivity after the long period doing nothing during the winter. So maybe spring can stay the optimal warring season, but be balanced by the fact that you've a lot of agrarian work to do, so balancing your time between the plough and the sword is tricky? Or as you do mention cold snaps, while summer and winter are almost consistently hot and cold (unless we're the ice lands or sand lands, then you want to war in the summer/winter when it's temperate there), perhaps the risk of spring and autumn is that it could unexpectedly lean a bad season ahead or behind?

And all these weather effects can mess with morale! Which of course could be a new system- Wait, I'm not giving any submissions for that one thank you, I'd like [you] to figure that one for me.

There is already so much to think through!😆

There are too many good ideas I can whip up that could make Farm Emblem a Nature-Integrated™️ strategy game of combat and cabbages. I feel like I'd have to assemble a development team, spend a few months coding in a plethora of concepts and a few basic campaigns to run them through. Then we have the hard discussion of which ideas can stay, and which ideas get chopped like trees or pruned like branches and vines. And having narrowed it down after experimentation and debate, then we move into bringing those concepts to maturity (without adding complexity to them that brings the scrapped ideas back in that we agreed couldn't be included, rules and limits are absolutely necessary), and creating a full-fledged farming sim SRPG.

It's too much effort for me.😵

You weren't gonna skip it cause naked Lanz was right there anyways haha.

That's the hunky Indoline, right? Hmm...😊

He already caught my interest, for reasons not related to eros. We can agree that compared to XCX, XC2 was a step back on some of the world building. We might not have ever visited the home planets of the various Xenos, but I sure as heck know more about them than I do the Gormotti, Urayans, and the Tantalese (speaking of, if memory serves, Zeke's father visually screams "We adopted our boy", they look absolutely nothing alike). I consider XCX and XC2 proof that visiting the homeland of a non-human intelligent species is no assurance that that intelligent species will be properly fleshed out, and that not doing so is certain to make them underdeveloped. The Indoline (thats the adjective they used for the tea pouch item at least) are by far the worst treated in XC2, since beyond being blue and living really long lives, we know nothing about them. And don't see them beyond Amalthus and like two insignificant others in Torna.

So, I would like it if XC3 fixed this massive lacunae on the Indoline. Judging from what you've said so far of XC3 quests, I wouldn't be surprised if you've seen improvement. With the caveat that I realize the idea of fixed national homelands enduring after thousands of years after XC2 (not to mention how that game ends geographically), and the inevitability of culture change over that period of time, means that whatever XC3 might say about the Indoline, could very well not have been true of their nonexistent XC2 ancestors. Doesn't truly matter though, I'll take anything on them (and the Urayans and the rest, including the already better-developed XC1 fantasy races).

This is the 2004 GBA port of a 1992 Sega Genesis/Mega Drive game- Shining Force. The swimsuit is NG+ only.

You'd probably have to put hard limits on the geomancy, like you could use Earthen Wall twice in a map to generate choke points, but the unit could be unable to do much themselves either because they have to maintain the effect or because it took a lot out of them to force these world altering effects.

Or it could be that those who are making these alterations need their physical allies to keep them from turning into a red and bone paste. That's too simple an answer though. Physical units could be strong and quick enough to climb up heights or lift heavy objects, sufficiently armoured or devil may care units could just waltz through very dangerous and poisonous thorny bushes, a very skilled unit could be better at throwing up grappling lines for your army to climb shorter walls, the most charming could be able to distract foes and have them walk into ambushes set by their allies or convince the less willing to stand down, that kind of thing.

I'll admit I don't have too much to say on class affinities tied to seasons. There's definitely the option of making seasons randomly better or worse for you in any one playthrough, granted I've not been thinking too much on that side of this and how it'd affect the management of your fort and the consequences for your army. The question is do you have regional differences in the world map? Do you want a situation where you have some poor years leading to your opponents having an innate advantage?

Bahamut Lagoon did something like this. Where you could alter slightly a battlefield through magic.

Water on the map? Ice spells could froze it over and infantry could walk over. Then you could use fire spells on the ice to melt it back. River has bridges? Thunder spells could destroy the bridges. And yes, you could set forest tiles on fire and use ice to put out the fire or just let it burn out. Or swamp tiles you could use a Poison ability on them and they'd, well, get poisoned and inflict damage like in SoV. And so on.

The feeling when you realize that Xander had been walking on a straight line towards Garon the entire scene is magical. His T-Posingness was clearly within his field of view the entire time, and the good princeling only reacted when Leo pointed him out. And then the camera does a ridiculous zoom out from Garon, because Fates is amazing.

This scene is the gift that keeps on giving. You could dissect it five times and find as many dumb details tucked away in corners that you hadn't noticed. It's wonderful, wonderful! Peak Fates, as far as I'm concerned.

I think I'm actually going to die while playing this game. Eventually I'm going to laugh so hard I'll just start coughing up blood.

I completed it once, which I think is enough. Even Fire Emblem of the era is more appealing than SF1 (never played any other Shining game). Shining Force is archaic at this point.

GBA's addition of Mawlock was cool. Very versatile, if a bit tricky to figure out how to best utilize with so many cards (which you also have to find in the first place).

You'd be limiting your scope tbh. A bunch of the classes seem to be like hybrid sorts, while others do specialize in the, well, role. I've swapped around the roles of the characters multiple times and the versatility of the classes makes each investment worth it most of the time. 

Like even Lanz can make a good healer. Even Eunie makes a good Tank.

Anyways there actually is an Indoline Hero you can get through an optional sidequest. Can't play as him obviously but he does grant you access to his class which is this neat Healer-Attacker hybrid and his Chain Attack bonuses are pretty sweet too.

So that makes Garon a metaphor for the top 1% of elites and/or politicians with the wealth and power to truly help the world, but don’t, and tweet such obviously racist stuff that Xander keeps defending until he can’t anymore and makes Elise even more suicidal at the state of her nation and those in power.
