Kinda tough to learn but Im enjoyin it now that I got the basics pretty much figured out. Got my ass handed to me at that Dorter City fight though last time I tried it, but this time I managed to figure out how to get guys classed with this jobs thing. 2 knights, an archer, and a wizard roughly around level 5-6 made a huge difference I like Fire Emblem better though. The mechanics are less clunky IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mechanics are less clunky IMHO Fair warning then, when you reach certain parts (for example right before For Zeakdon, after you completed the fight you are put in a position where you can go anywhere to level/buy things, so prepare before hand!) Those would be... Zeakdon, Lionel (ch 2), Orbonne Monestary, (ch 2) Riovanes castle, (ch3) past this point is ch4 battles: Limberry castle, Igros castle, Murond Holy place, and finally Orbonne again Pretty sure I got em all in proper order.

Lightchao42 Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 33 minutes ago, Sooks said: I already knew you considered CSI and II to be the weakest games I always thought of you as a Crossbell elitist just because you kept telling me to play it, but you have been gushing about Cold Steel III a lot so it balances out. The real problem is that you didn't put Sky 3rd in the highest tier. 33 minutes ago, Sooks said: What is the central conflict of Cold Steel 1? The central conflict of Cold Steel I was "setting up the central conflict of Cold Steel II", duh. It's the Trails formula! My writeup didn't take the two later games into account because I haven't played them yet. 33 minutes ago, Sooks said: I mean, according to the lore yeah, but if you just look at the named nobles who actually appear, we have Laura, Angelica, Olivert, Jusis and Patrick through the power of character development, kind of Rufus, and “good” nobles who just don’t really bring up the entire conflict, like Rean’s entire family. All of them compared to… Dukes Cayenne and Albarea? You're right among the nobles who actually appear, but Viscount Arseid and Baron Schwarzer are framed as the exceptions to the usual mold. The closest the game comes to showing the usual noble is Bareahard having a few noble NPCs who are generally unpleasant, like the guy who eats a rock in one sidequest. The imperial family is good too, the problem is that the emperor trusts anime Otto von Bismarck too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote but you have been gushing about Cold Steel III a lot so it balances out. Huh, have I really been gushing? But yeah, if Cold Steel 3 keeps this up and doesn’t do anything really horrendous it will be, in my opinion, MUCH better than the first 2 Cold Steels and a very solid game. Quote The real problem is that you didn't put Sky 3rd in the highest tier. Honestly, I’ve kinda been feeling like I need a replay of Sky 3rd. I didn’t really know that the point of it was that the doors and such bridged it to the rest of the series for the next few arcs, and I didn’t like the dungeon crawler-esque thing as opposed to the normal Trails formula. But now that I know where everything was going and understand it better I feel like the game is retroactively a lot better. Plus it has Kevin as MC. And who doesn’t love Kevin? Quote You're right among the nobles who actually appear, but Viscount Arseid and Baron Schwarzer are framed as the exceptions to the usual mold. I thought that was normal for games with “good nobles” though. Since this was only being brought up in comparison to FE, I think.

Armagon Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 @Saint Rubenio look what showed up in my recs 1 hour ago, Lightchao42 said: The tension between the nobility and commoners is more or less the cause of the main conflict. It's also handled very poorly. 1 hour ago, Lightchao42 said: Now that I think about it, the only media I can think of that has a message about the modern political system are the Star Wars prequels And even then, it was less the Prequels and more of.....well literally all of the side material. The Prequels themselves don't do really do a good job at the politics but Clone Wars oh yeah baby. 1 hour ago, Imperator Squilla said: I wish i had no idea, too, and completely gave up at CS2.

Acacia Sgt Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) So, today I found out that in Great Mazinger, the Emperor of Darkness is actually never fought. Now I understand why in SRW R it's also never fought, despite the Emperor himself rarely showing up in SRW as it is. Actually, that might be why he rarely showed up in SRW to begin with.

GuardianSing Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Little word of advice if you have allergies to flowers of any kind, never cater for weddings It was hell today for me. 6 hours ago, Lightchao42 said: Now that I think about it, the only media I can think of that has a message about the modern political system are the Star Wars prequels. Fire Emblem just has royal main characters out of tradition, not that it has any political messages in the first place. It's unrealistic for sure, but I do really wish Fire Emblem would get more political with it's messaging outside of just how the world is built. Three Houses was certainly close but not enough for it to be satisfying. 6 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: Thank you for reminding me of three of my favorite pieces of official Zelda artwork. The Old & Bad, the Awkward & Epic, and the Pantsless & Chill. Would it be inappropriate to say that Link has some thick thighs? 4 hours ago, Armagon said: @Saint Rubenio look what showed up in my recs Subscribe to the man, he deserves it.

joevar Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) 20 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Can I make a confession? I think I've been coming around on Alear. Like, coming around hard. There's a reason I always picked the white outfit whenever I played as Marth in Smash. Full white attires are awesome, and Alear's... is actually pretty good. They pull it off. Female Alear does the funky hair better, while male Alear doesn't have a miniskirt, so it's not like either of them's perfect, but... I think I actually might kinda like them, in the context of this more fantastical game at least. no you cant. im not romantically available as your S support, nor am i your local priest/WRYS. so dont confess to me like i said, at a glance my mind can filter their outfit to be okay-looking. but when i do stare at them, theres always something glaringly wrong/weird about it. like male Alear strap from his kneepad (kneeboots?) to his half- jacket. if its separate kneepad, attaching strap to jacket will just make it move away from your knee when moving frantically. if its part of the boots, even more weird, boots dont need strap keep it pulled up. also moving your leg to one side too strong (kicking for example) will pull the jacket.... sometimes i hate myself for noticing unnecessary details like that. 20 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: Whenever they reveal a design I don't like (so far Celine, mostly), I take solace in the fact that alternate outfits will be a thing. I believe there's a decent chance that, out of all of them, there'll be at least one for every character that will please most folks. ...What worries me more is that all the women look like children with the same face due to the artstyle. That's not something you can change. But, eh. At this point I'll live with it if they give me good gameplay. Honestly, I'll live with anything if they give me good gameplay. God knows I already did with Fates. i usually skip alternate outfit, this time im glad its part of main feature. hopefully casual clothes will actually be casual.

Sidereal Wraith Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) Dear Emperor, the character design in this game. She looks so goofy fighting in that dress. And yes before anyone else points it out it was also ridiculous with Lissa’s design as well.
