      >Gameplay is good which is all that matters

      I see this a lot, and I think it’s a misguided opinion.

      The vast majority of people do not play Fire Emblem for “pure” gameplay. If that’s all the audience cared about, they’d just play chess. FE’s standout appeal has always been its characters. Fans become genuinely invested in using/preserving their favorite units because of the aesthetics/writing (which became more developed as the series grew into maturity). The character/relationship writing has synergy with the strategy gameplay, but make no mistake— it is an essential component. Without it, players wouldn’t care about losing units and would sacrifice pieces in service of optimal strategy.

      While all the more recent entries (including Engage, by the way) have definitely leaned further into fan service territory, the core appeal is the characters themselves. The quality of the writing (supports, story, etc.) makes a huge impact on the overall experience.

      I’m not defending past entries as having perfect writing. But if Engage represents a step down from Three Houses in this regard, it is a legitimate disappointment.

        Honestly I disagree with this. If given the option I ALWAYS skip the cutscenes in FE6 and FE7. I honest to god have no idea what happens in both of those games, but I've gone back to them many many times because FE at it's most simple (Linear, without the option to go to grind maps) is a fun time.

        morons its not the characters themselves its the characters unique skills. adding skill inheritance is another layer to what FE fans enjoy about fire emblem. previously inheritance was locked behind the eugenics and different classes where now it is just jerking off with the right wiener ring for a map or two before getting the skill you want.
        Xcom would be great if they had more skills and skill inheritance shit in them. Also frick the RNG in all Xcom games. I want to play Xcom now.

          I don't have anything on me, but the text for all the supports has leaked. Basically, the game ends with you giving a magic ring to a special person, which isn't explicitly a marriage proposal but has strong romantic undertones. Most of the Japanese responses treat it like a proposal. NoA chose to translate many of them as platonic, taking about how the characters are now "allies" or "friends" rather than lovers or partners, which would be more direct translations.

          It seems like NoA got squeamish at the thought that some of these romances involve minors. None of the characters have canonical ages, but there are inaccessible files in the game that list ages for each of them—the ones that got changed almost all correspond to girls who are supposed to be 16 or 17. Boys mostly got away free because they're a couple years older than the girls on average.

          It's all a little silly, though, because the ages clearly aren't supposed to be taken literally (the old lady character is 35, the greybeard old man is 45), and Alear him/herself is listed as 17

    I am not the biggest FE fan, and I've played only a handful of the GBA games, Awakening, 3H, Fates, and now this and unless the ones I didn't play are literal Yokai Watch for children tier, I don't understand how a game that diverges so wildly from the tone and settings of the other games is getting a free pass.

                Don't bother trying to use simple logic with 3 Houses fanboys. They can't comprehend it. Skipping it kneecaps your student's class progression so fricking hard that the game becomes even more of a slog.

                If the developers were willing to admit the calendar was a slog then clearly they did something wrong.

                The problem with the Monastery is you still go there in Part 2. That should not have happened. It's great in Part 1. It becomes a slog in Part 2. Part 2 should be "normal" Fire Emlblem where your team travels the world (not goes far into enemy land then goes all the way home to do nothing for a month lol)

                Part 2 should ditch the monastery and just have a small camp for the basics. Tutoring, flowers, cooking,etc all in a close knit area.

                I swear I remember part of Edelgard's story doing just that.

                Play a real tactics game and you'll see that you don't have to have Babby Story Hour to have good gameplay. Jagged Alliance 2 is pretty cheap these days, or maybe try Xcom, or Devil Survivor.
                I mean, you only care about PURE gameplay, right?

                Having played all of those, including having a boxed copy of Xcom before it went swimming in 2005, I, for one, also enjoy FE's gameplay.

                In the last chapter before part 2 begins, Edelgard takes you and everyone in the black eagles to a war camp in preparation to invade the monastery. That’s the only time it happens. Part 2 is back to the monastery since you conquered it before the timeskip, and everyone in Fodlan can’t fight a war without Byleth.

      Awakening's story isn't the most ambitious or serious but it's enjoyable enough and at least has some semblance of a serious plot. It's weird that it's put under such heavy scrutiny where there are way more paint-by-number stories across the entire franchise before it. Hell, Chrom never has to go on the run from his homeland or liberate it and is almost always on the offensive, and the evil dragon doesn't even really become something to focus on until the last act.

      Meanwhile Engage is just Revelations but coherent.

          Give it up IntSys. You don't have the talent to be more ambitious. Fates and 3H were both ruined because you bit off more than you could chew by trying to give them so many routes. You don't have the talent to do 2 routes properly, let alone more than that. "Ambition" is a poison to mediocre writers like you, you need to build your foundations better before you try that again.

          No, moron. There's Jade in Chapter 9 that you would have to be moronic to miss
          then there is Jean and Anna, both in side missions
          if you're going to be moronic and say "well hurr durr you can not talk to them and then you missed them so I'm right XD XD" then frick off

    I think this may be a Miyamoto-influenced line of thought, but why do so many Nintendogays excuse bad stories if gameplay is decent? Especially in JRPGs. It's like they believe these things are mutually exclusive when they aren't.

                XCOM has fungible units in that you can always recruit another randomly-generated unit with essentially the same stats and combat role. This is not true in Fire Emblem. If Vander dies, for instance, you cannot create another unit with the same growths, personal skill, etc. In that sense Fire Emblem units are non-fungible. Classic/Casual has nothing to do with it

    What's the point of those shitty bond rings without skills other than to have filler before you get more Emblem rings? I don't see why you'd ever want to spend points on the gacha system instead of raising bonds for example.

      Anonymous

      They're for when I do my no Emblem run but still want stat sticks for my units. They really should have limited you to like 2 Emblem Rings per map. Enough to give you a lot of space with experimentation, not enough to steamroll the map. Unless they do on Maddening, I haven't played that yet.

    • 1 year ago
      Anonymous

      There's no point in raising bonds unless you're going to be using the ring anyways, want to reclass the unit or are at endgame and thus have enough skill points for exactly one actually good skill to inherit. Also you can only earn skill points if you have a ring of any sort equipped, so at least early on you definitely want at least a handful, if only to make sure the slot is filled and the unit is getting points. Some of the S rank skills are alright and some of the very endgame maps have deployment limits over 12 so you're gonna have to use a couple anyways unless you use the dlc stuff I guess.

    This is the premier example of why all games should have a NO STORY mode

    This game would jump from a 7/10 to a 10/10 if you had a mode that just cut out all the annoying voice acting, character interactions, painful cutscenes, and everything story related and was pure mechanical gameplay. Even skipping and fast forwarding stuff is immersion breaking and having to listen to these screeching English or Japanese voice actors

    I hated the designs and artstyle at first and the writing isn't particularly great, but I find myself somehow really enjoying this, I like every character so far. Maybe it's just the fact that it's internally consistent, it's honest about what it's trying to be and does a decent job at it. Meanwhile Fates for example had a lot of cool looking characters with absolute dogshit joke personalities and you'd feel cheated every time.

    Game runs good for me on Ryujinx but for some reason the game will crash to desktop almost consistently when I go back to base. But only if I'm playing on 2k which doesn't seem to tax my PC all that much to begin with, playing on 1k it's fine.

    Anyone else have that problem?

    I went in pretty hyped, but it's managed to surprise me in the first few chapters. They managed to endear me to Lumera a lot more than I expected for her brief story presence, and the voice actress on Alear is killing it, really brings her to life as someone confused and uncertain about the role they've been put in. She's still... an eyesore, but I'm genuinely liking her. The gameplay is fun and well presented and the Somniel is a perfect balance of brevity and things to do.

      And I thought I was a strategy brainlet... Chapter 4 was manageable for me but also very fun, the game will present you with very obvious chokepoints and give you a fat armored dude to park on them, it also wants you to abuse Celine's teleport. There's not many variables to juggle yet, keep trying.

    The character design is so hit and miss.
    The initial 3 guys (Jeigan, staff girl, mage boy) you get are so painfully generic which makes me feel hypocritical because the old games had Red guy and Green guy but somehow they had more personality.
    Etie is my favorite character so far but when she joins with Alfred who is just the same design as Dimitri from 3H it really brings it down.
    His sister isn't too bad because at least her outfit is goofy.

    I've played the GBA games, the Ike games, Awakening and Three Houses. I own Conquest and Echoes on 3DS but never got around to playing them.

    Out of Conquest, Echoes and Engage, are any of them worth playing? Which one should I play next?

      Play conquest, both are equally bad but it's at least more memorable and you will get the jokes.

      Conquest has some of the best gameplay in the series, but otherwise hit-or-miss, for me it easily keeps me coming back due to how replayable and fun it is. Echoes is a very soulful remake of Gaiden with many genuine improvements, but also genuine problems that carry over from original game. It has fantastic presentation, great characters, and decent story.
      Both are great in different ways.

      Really depends on what you're looking for in a Fire Emblem.

        I've heard this a few times which is why I bought it originally. But it has that pair up mechanic from Awakening, right? I really didn't like that very much.

          It has pair up mechanics, but they got fine-tuned to work differently from Awakening. It's not mindless like it was in the previous title, but instead can be either a helpful or debilitating option.

            To expand on this, stat bonuses are entirely dependent on a unit’s class and support rank. Putting two units together will grant the stat bonus and one free guard every 5 or so attacks the unit deals or receives instead of the random chance it was in awakening. Units paired up that way cannot attack together.
            Units that enter combat with another unit adjacent to them will receive bonuses to in combat stats only (hit, avoid, crit, dodge). The adjacent unit will follow up the attacking unit with their own attack that deals half the damage of if they were to initiate combat. The follow up attack is also immune to any post combat penalties a weapon may inflict, so it can be beneficial to set up good weapons with bad drawbacks to use in the follow up attacks.
            Enemies also utilize both in maps so that’s a step up from awakening.

              Not just can, enemies will use and abuse it. I fricking hate those reinforcement flying bow c**ts on C14.

      Conquest and Echoes are pretty much polar opposites. Conquest has good maps but everything else is shit. Echoes has shit maps but everything else is good.

      Echoes has the best presentation in the series by far, but the developers made the weird decision not to redo some of the maps which are considered some of the worse in the entire franchise so take that as you will.

        It is weird how so many maps were not remade when originally they were bad not due to intentional design, but instead FE2 pushing the hardware and filesize to the utter limit and thus things had to be sacrificed.

      It's honestly just pick your poison. Do you want an overall more solid package or do you want packages with higher highs ,

      It's actually sad. And the meme that this is a return to form to TRUE fire emblem is hilarious.

      Corrected it for you anon, considering how FE was overshadowed by both of those until Awakening saved the series.

    the only good part of engage is that they included Edelgard.
