GuardianSing Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Severa is in this game? Monica from Three Houses too?! We need more side moments where the regular soldiers just chat. Increasing Lyon's of discomfort. I'm gonna be honest with y'all. I really really dislike long ranged mages. It's even worse because the GBA doesn't telegraph if they'll stay still or not so I actually have to do the math out to figure where is safe and where isn't. And in mid-battle, Colm becomes our first unit that I promoted. Mostly because I ran out of lockpicks and wanted to get the extra treasure in this chapter. I love when Fire Emblem characters talk about their mounts in an admiring way. There are so many times where a mount is pretty much just a prop character wise, especially in class changes where a horse or pegasus will just spawn out of nowhere for the character to rise, so it's great to see characters that an actual bond with their mount. And hey, lore relating to non-story relevant things in this world are great to see. Even if that lore makes no goddamn sense. If this is what actually what pegasus means, I take back everything I've ever said bad about Intelligent Systems. See now that Moulder is dead I'm going to unironically defend L'Arachel with my life because she is the only healer left on this team Inbreeding? Hooray for more creepy moments in Fire Emblem. Seriously, this gave me chills. The fact that they never show what she looks like combined with how she is referred to is terrifying. Damn, they must have really eaten up that Renais propaganda. @BrightBow Good quote choice.

Saint Rubenio Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 In other news, I've noticed I have exactly two character slots left - exactly enough for the bald man and the other character that's going to be mutually exclusive with the bald man. That's right, there'll be two Arran/Samsons. Why? Because why not, I have the power. ...Problem is, that leaves me with no Gotoh. Oh wait, in the middle of the playable character list - specifically, slot 1B, right between Dozla and Rennac - there's an unused, entirely unimplemented enemy named "enemy". Hah, well, that's incredibly weird, but it works for me. Still undecided on who's going to be the Gotoh. Obvious answer is Mansel, a bishop would be perfect for Gotoh duties in this game and he's close enough that he could plausibly take a little time off from ruling duties to go smite a couple demons. But then, that's the obvious answer, and I've tried to avoid those where I've been able... 1 minute ago, Armagon said: Strongly implied since bootlegged Z has his own rings.

I still remember how in FE12, having completely ran out of ideas for characterization when they got to Beck, they decided to make his horse his entire character, up to and including lamenting the fact that his horse dies with him in his death quote. Except the pony might not even be with him when he kicks the bucket. Amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can get behind them flying because of magic, it's just that the animations of pegasi in all Fire Emblem games directly contradicts this conversation, and I think that's just funny.

Saint Rubenio Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Ah yes, I had almost forgotten. Ewan in Eirika's route shows up, guides you to the filler monster map where Dozla and L'Arachel exist even though they explicitly went the completely opposite way back at Port Kiris (three guesses as to where they end up in the hack, with the route split gone and all), and then he just... sort of doesn't join the team so he can be a little more bad of a unit by missing out on the filler monster map where he can be trained. ...Then again, the map has fog. But fog isn't a thing in Ruben Stones. So I'm giving him another chapter to exist. Hurray. 8 minutes ago, Edelguardiansing said: It reminds me of how in the 3DS titles everybody's outfits are unique in their base class but as soon as you promote them or class change them they wear the same getup everyone else in that class wears.

To this day, one of my favorite villains in the entire series. Incredible how effective he manages to be with his like, three scenes. Though to be fair, he does also have like six battle convos.
