Well, if semantics are being brought up, then Jehanna is not a place on Earth... or even real, so every argument is moot anyway.

Heh, yeah, that's the real conclusion to these talks. Honestly while a Fire Emblem that does it's research and gets everything on point would be a dream come true for me, at the end of day these are just for fun and a bit of exercise for my worldly passions. It's a fiction and not something to take seriously unless it's genuinely racist.

Hmm, this video shows that disabling Chain Attack BGM may not be as simple as it looks. The modder does it here but the issue is dynamic music. Monolith would have to delete the "enemy is almost down" music otherwise you get that rather annoying loop.

Modding is hardly ever straight forward. Xd

Just about knocked out ch 13 of Binding Blade

Had a Brendan Fraiser moment from one of the mummy movies  once I picked up Percival. Soon as it my turn again all them damn wyvern riders charged me. Oh shit... time to turn and burn. Lol ..

Hauled ass back across the upper bridge just in time to face a horde of cavaliers and paladins comin from the other way and the wyvern riders went south toward the lower bridge where my two nomad troopers made quick work of them. 😎

Clarine as a lev 9 Valkyrie is a right tough customer with a fire spell. She took out a few of them mounted bastards pretty quick cuz there was just no way the axe guys could handle em all

Are you playing on Normal Mode, or Hard Mode? If it is Hard Mode, you might want to reset here, as you can also recruit him in a latter chapter, where he gets massive Hard Mode Bonus stats, which make him much better. If this is normal, good job, he is harder to recruit this chapter as you really need to rush.

But I've seen people repeatedly arguing it fits because she is from the desert, even though that just makes it worse.

I mean, where to even start? High heels on sand? Or maybe keeping easily heated metal close to your unprotected crotch?

thats borderline stereotyping on wrong info. those people really need to go outside their home. or better, go to other countries for vacation just to see what people actually/realistically wear

i mean...

two cultures of Hindu and Arabs are mistaken as one

this. happens a lot. maybe because they had relatively darker skin than their neighbor, their culture somehow get transferred in people mind to somewhere else?

Belly dancing is an ancient tradition from the middle east dating back to the early Ottoman Empire. The Greeks referred to it as "The dance of the quivering thighs", however belly dancing as we know it today (And the one that is most present in Fire Emblem) originated in Egypt from the mid to late 19th century, and features the iconic dress shown here.

thats quite a lore dump. you really like belly dancing i guess. 

about the red dot on forehead, personally i dont mind such fine details. i would rather FE countries are made up of some mixed culture (thats similar in some capacity, or bordering on each other) than trying to recreate a single, specific, perfect, authentic culture. i dont trust them to do that unless they involve actual historians in their developer credits.

any chance they add that feature on future update? but i already expected that dynamic music cant function properly with chain attack due to how chain attack feels detached from actual fighting (what with enemy just stood dumbfounded entire time, and timed buff/debuff/DoT become weird)

I don’t really know who this Kain fellow is, but I like him already!

So I found a class better suited for the psychopomp name. Mainly because I wanted to name it Charon or something like that, and then found out that Charon is, in fact, a psychopomp.

So now I'm back to having nothing for male valkyries. Great.

It's all interesting, really.

Due to how dangerous the Neleras Peak path is, and the Hamill Canyon connection being remote, it wouldn't be surprising that Rausten mainly contacts the other countries by sea. We know Eirika's original plan was to take a ship to Rausten at Carcino to the Melkaen Coast. As such, Rausten ships go west across the northern coast to Carcino and Frelia, and south across the eastern coast to Jehanna and Grado.

As such, it's not surprising Carcino is where it is. As the mid-point between Rausten and Frelia, merchants saw it a good point to be intermediaries of Frelian-Rausten trade, thus allowing the merchant republic to flourish.

 

Not bad, Sacred Stones. Not bad.

Ah...how classic. A moment comes when I pick and choose so frequently that in a rush to heal Eirika, I accidently heal Lute instead.

But surely this little mistake wont be detrimental to the Princess, will it?

Oh...

How I hate when that happens.

To be fair, FE's shtick is that the bandits are Hispanic.

Which means Ortega of Yggdra Union would totally not be out of place in Fire Emblem.

Out of place? Completely in-place, from what I'm seeing.

Indeed. Step-sided pyramids were how the first pyramids were made. Egypt eventually switched to smooth-sided, although...

Took a while to get it perfect.

Hahahahahaha... Oh, that's great. The unglamorous side to Egypt.

Totally unrelated but, random fact:

My first FE editing anything was making a palette swap of Carlyle, all the way back in 2009.

Palette swaps are pretty much like how everyone starts.

Because if you try to be more ambitious, your first thing ends up being a horror show like this.

Dew it. Join the club. The club of having sold Three Houses for better games. Do try not to join the club of selling Three Houses for another game you arguably ended up liking less, though.

Three Houses seems to be in high demand. The place where I sold it had it up for a whopping 80 bucks. Not sure who's going to buy that, but it works for me.

Maybe i should leave it on eBay for a few days first xD

Doing some fast search there seems to be some kinda shortage? But you can get it for much less than 80€

Yeah ~50€ new easy

Not available on Amazon tho interesting

And Charos being a word derived from it but not being Charon was why I suggested it. Ho hum.

According to their website they have it new

[Saint Rubenio]

That moment when you run into the "too many character I want to use, too little deployment slots", but it's your own hack.

I can't just throw myself ten thousand deployment slots so I can use all of my pretties, though.

...F for Albertus, I think. The way I've designed him, he's just a budget Duessel that isn't promoted and has a rad palette.

But then, it is a rather rad palette, if I do say so myself... Dang it, I can't run into this problem, I'm supposed to be playtesting, not playing normally.

The two armies getting together is gonna be fun.

Of course, I was just messing around. I know very little of that game, so anything's possible.
