Armagon Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Ah, i'm remembering why i constantly looked at Link's Awakening guides when i was young: because the game doesn't tell you shit. Admittedly, i am better at it but i just ran into "btw i hope you were doing the trading sequence nobody tells you about". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrightBow Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, Acacia Sgt said: Andy, Max, and Sami are our Eliwood, Hector, and Lyn remake. Amusingly, it's actually the other way around, considering Blazing Blade took quite a few cues from Advance Wars. Yet somehow it was worse with just about everything. Like how unlike in Advance Wars, you can't replay the tutorials levels without starting all over from the very start. But when it comes to having entirely arbitrary requirements to unlock missions or characters that are impossible to figure out without looking it up... FE7 copied that perfectly. Woho! 36 minutes ago, Acacia Sgt said: Hello there, not!Selphina ? Just because she has blue hair and a horse? Although official art always portrays her with bows, despite her being terrible with them. Very much a crossbow specialist. Though having the option to combine Aim with 2 range attacks can be handy for sure. 41 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Izerna can be a bit tricky to keep safe. Dean's really powerful, but he's only one man. It gets easier once you realize that the ones following Dean and Izerna turn red when attacked. So Dean can force their attention on him. The ones carrying money also aren't going to attack but are merely trying to leave the map. Edited February 10, 2023 by BrightBow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntSys be like "we may have made an excellent game that delivers everything he wants from FE, but we WILL find a way to annoy Ruben." Indeed, IntSys is out to get me specifically. There is probably a designated "Annoy Ruben" department. How else do you explain this? 14 minutes ago, BrightBow said: It gets easier once you realize that the ones following Dean and Izerna turn red when attacked. So Dean can force their attention on him.

Yeah, the key is to send Izerna north on her own while Dean attracts the enemy's attention, and have someone from Reese's group ride through the crossbowman. Trying to keep Dean and Izerna close only leads to trouble, because bodyblocking in Berwick is very hard due to hexagons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OH THATS WHY HE LEFT THE MAP!? now i cant help but replay the map huh.. oh boi. one turn feels like forever now i had to do it from turn one again. 12 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Yeah, the key is to send Izerna north on her own while Dean attracts the enemy's attention, and have someone from Reese's group ride through the crossbowman. i know thats the intended path. but she keeps dying from that crossbowman because i realized to move the cavalrymen a bit too late. a lot of mistake since chapter 1.. this really gives me deja vu of playing dark soul from the first time again.

Really Kaga, did he really want player to not like him so much or what. let me learn the rope first Kaga goes hard from the start. The map does a good job of being a solid introduction to the core mechanics without feeling overly tutorialy. It is a "real" map that someone could reasonably call their favorite map, unlike the first maps of games like 7, 8, Fates or even Engage. Don't worry though, sidequests, or at least the earlier ones, are simpler than the main maps. The chapter 1 sidequests in particular are pretty chill. Even the one with fog, because Berwick Saga fixed fog of war. Imagine that! Edited February 10, 2023 by Saint Rubenio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, it would've been cool if Hopes had given these side characters more time to shine. But no, instead it focuses on the students again, even though they already had a game. It's a shame because there are some really interesting looking characters on the sidelines that just don't get much attention. 7 hours ago, Eltosian Kadath said: Plus they didn't want people to complain about never seeing the generic bosses Edelgard has on the other routes, when you side with Edelgard. They should have just made them playable, to replace the Church members that are only available on the other routes... Already I think my review of this game is going to be the longest one I'll write so far for any of these games as there is just so much I want to talk about, including this.
