Which is good advice when the Jeigan is well balanced (all three times that happened). The playerbase took that to mean "reset the map 10 times if you must, NEVER EVER let the Jeigan see combat."

Saint Rubenio Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 It's actually funny because Requiem was made back when that mindset was still thriving somewhat, and yet on the second map it hands you the funniest prepromotes ever on a map designed to have them eat up half the enemy population.

Sooks Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 32x was quick and easy. Onto endgame. These are all the survivors going into endgame, except Matthew, who will survive because I’m not deploying him. Don’t be fooled by the fact that Guy and Bartre are promoted, they both suck. Jesus Christ, my Lyn is cracked. She’s probably the MVP of this play through after Heath and Oswin (RIP), the non-swordslayer axe users last chapter had 0 hit against her. And she doubled Kishuna. But capped strength Lyn without RNG abuse or stat boosters is insane, I just started getting really lucky with strength levels halfway into the game or so. This is gonna turn me into one of those Lyn simps who are convinced she’s the best unit in all of Fire Emblem. 58 minutes ago, Eltosian Kadath said: Congrats on getting Karla, although I remember her stats being kind of underwhelming for how late she arrives. Oh yeah, she’s mediocre.

Fear of reinforcements and not wanting to play a long, drawn out map will do that to you.

I thought he was like, 11 years old in Kingdom Hearts 1. Well either way, I'm gonna miss KH1 Sora's voice a bit, there's an odd charm to it, like Tails' voice in the Sonic Adventure games. Haley Joel Osment was also 14 when Kingdom Hearts 1 released, so Sora was aged up as he got older. Tails used to be voiced by young boys as well, but now he gets female voice actors because they must've gotten tired of recasting him after every game. Sonic Adventure's voice acting was actually pretty decent, when you consider that even the voice director was barely given any context. 1 hour ago, Sooks said: Although I did like three and nine… maybe I will play Reverie… I can't believe it, Reverie marks the return of D O O R S but it took Not-Rex and Sleepy Girl to sell you on it. 5 minutes ago, Sooks said: This is gonna turn me into one of those Lyn simps who are convinced she’s the best unit in all of Fire Emblem. Sooks no, don't be someone who says "actually Lyn doesn't have enough alts in Heroes". Lyn was pretty useful in my playthrough, but I never actually finished it so I'm probably misinformed.

Sooks Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) Endgame was pretty easy, like always, except for Lloyd being terrifying (but I had swordslayer Hector for that). Now that I had Athos, two pretty good lords, and an insanely cracked Lyn, I started playing pretty recklessly because I didn’t really care who died. Harken died to a crit that I don’t remember the odds of, then I got Karla killed putting her in range of a Druid without bothering to check the damage, because again, recklessness. Athos got a Luna crit against Ursula, which felt like a nice payback for Heath, who probably watched over the rest of the run. When the door to Nergal opened, Renault got berserked so I made a mad dash to Nergal before Renault did anything crazy. In the process I got a Druid down to exactly enough health that Dart (who is base level btw) could kill him a with a hand axe hit that had a 58% chance of happening, which I naturally went for because it would be funny (I probably don’t need to say that this late game Druid could easily OHKO base level Dart). He, uh, didn’t hit that attack… also berserked Renault killed Guy. Then I killed Nergal without incident. I threw everything I had at the Fire Dragon because I thought I might maybe be able to kill it in one turn and didn’t feel like checking the math, but I couldn’t. The Fire Dragon could’ve given me a game over but instead it prioritized killing Athos for some reason, so Athos died and I meant to give the kill to Hector, but Lyn got a crit softening the boss up and got the kill instead. Insane. Anyway, that’s fe7 ironman* and my first ironman* complete. The survivors were Lyn, Eliwood, Hector, Nils, Renault, Matthew, and… fucking Bartre?? (So the non game over units are Nils, Renault, Matthew, and fucking Bartre. So four units.) I’m not good at this game… The tactician ending I got said something about my tactics being incomprehensible to historians. Clearly this means I was so utterly brilliant that no one could see my strategies coming. …The vaguely cheery credits music doesn’t really fit when all the character endings just talk about how everyone is dead. *terms and conditions may apply 1 hour ago, Shrimpy -Limited Edition- said: wtf She's better than my PoR Ike lmoaaaaaaaaaaaa yeah but it’s PoR so it doesn’t matter use Sothe Anyway yeah, she has more strength than Hector. And Eliwood. 1 hour ago, Capt. Fargus said: You got Oswin killed?? 🧐 Stupid luna, I didn’t bother to check enemy weapons before sending him in. He can tank every other normal enemy spell… 1 hour ago, Capt. Fargus said: You should be ashamed of yourself Lol On the bright side, he’s one of those characters who doesn’t die when he is killed. So that’s neat. 1 hour ago, Capt. Fargus said: Pretty kickin stats on Lyn there. Did you give her that Afa’s drops? Nope, those went to my fantastic Heath (rest in peace) 1 hour ago, Eltosian Kadath said: Lol, did you also make it to endgame with exactly 13 units alive so Matthew can stay on the bench? No, I don’t care that much about Matthew. The only unit still alive who I would show any sort of favoritism to is Karla, because she’s cool, has a pretty design, feels kinda mysterious because she has those qualities but is barely utilized by the game at all, and Fir is awesome (cute and cool). But Karla could actually contribute a little, so I brought her and with the one unit I could bench I was like “eeeeeh Matthew”. But it was between him and Dart for completely useless units I didn’t need. I could’ve not deployed them both, but I thought the extra sacrifice just in case might be handy… 1 hour ago, Eltosian Kadath said: Damn. Lyn being the surprise carry on this run is rather funny though, feels like one of those weird ironman quirks that makes them so memorable. Yeah, but my Heath was a hard carry too.

He goes “EW NOBLESSSS!!!!!1!1!1!11!” and is just a general prick and overly hostile to him every time they’re in the same room together, just in case you couldn’t understand that there’s class divisions and tension between noble and commoner. This changes in their 2nd field study, where Rean Harem Schwarzer uses his Harem Schwarzer energy to make them reconcile by having a late night chat with Jusis about how he and Rean are so similar and really just good guys once you get to know ‘em, which Dudley happens to be awake for and eavesdropping on. They settle their differences by fighting a JRPG boss together and, since this is Cold Steel, they never speak to anyone other than Rean ever again. The End. oh shit wrong one 1 hour ago, Lightchao42 said: I can't believe it, Reverie marks the return of D O O R S but it took Not-Rex and Sleepy Girl to sell you on it.
