Well, are they good enough for it to be worth it? If not, would buying them separately be better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the Dusk trilogy, I cannot say, since I haven't played them, but the Arland trilogy (Atelier Rorona, Atelier Totori, and Atelier Meruru) I'd say is worth it. The only one I didn't like from those three is Atelier Totori, since it's really strict with its time limit mechanic. The other two are really good, though!

Lightcosmo Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 And I'll get the fourth one as well. Making that 120$ or so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the answer to your question is: yes, definitely! And you just said one of the triple packs, and there are two, so I didn't know which one you meant! My bad! 1 minute ago, lightcosmo said: Looking forward to playing them! Although that has to wait.

Armagon Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 1 hour ago, Benice said: Yeah, FE6 is designed with ironmanning in mind. Aside from Ambush spawns, that is. I mean, that's all Fire Emblem games pre-16. 50 minutes ago, DodgeDusk said: WRT Roy and boosters: it's perfectly viable to, like... not really use Roy much? Promoting at the end of 21 (or 21x if you get the Gaiden) means he has so many opportunies to get experience via simply chipping and the occassional kill. Once he gets the Binding Blade, he becomes a monster when using it regardless of how much he (hasn't) grown. By the time he promotes, he's usually already Lv.20 for me. Which, you know, people say to not promote until Lv.20 anyway. Roy's really not as bad as people claim he is tbh. 33 minutes ago, twilitfalchion said: It's too bad that one of the only ways to get physical Atelier in English is by way of a $90 multipack from Play Asia, if that's the one you're talking about. Atelier rarely gets physical rereleases. The triple packs in particular don't have actual English releases. Anyways, @lightcosmo I wouldn't recommend getting the triple packs unless you are certain you'll like all three games in it. Oh I'm too late.

Oh I'm too late. I haven't actually played yet, I was just goofing. So I pay 40$ for two. Wouldnt it be worth paying the extra 10 for a whole game? Right now I'm sitting at 114$ on my account with alot of gold points saved as well. Just gotta add 20$ more. Edit: payed you moron, not played!

You do spend less by getting the triple pack but like, in my experience, both the Arland trilogy and the Dusk trilogy have one game I wasn't a fan of.

Well the Arland tier list is Lulua > Rorona > Meruru >>>>>>>> Totori. Atelier Totori is by far the worst game in the series that I've played.

Which, you know, people say to not promote until Lv.20 anyway. Roy's really not as bad as people claim he is tbh. Same. Promoting at level 20 is eh when it comes to games prior to Awakening (growths are more important in FE13 onwards); the immediate buffs from promotions are too good to delay, and the chances of a unit going 20/20 is incredibly rare. Roy is as bad people claim him to be. You've said you haven't played Hard Mode, and I think it's the hardest difficulties that really show how good or bad a unit is. Roy's perfectly viable in Normal Mode, but so are a lot of other units in FE6. It's like Donnel from Awakening: he's a great unit in Awakening's Hard Mode once he's reclassed into Fighter/Mercenary (even during a no pair-up run), but on Lunatic his awful start makes him unsalvageable outside of DLC grinding.
