stop with the memes, Nintendo
even Square could rip off Tactics Ogre gameplay and make a great Final Fantasy spinoff
>>376947047
the meme's are never going away because Treehouse thinks they add 'depth' to the writing. plus means they can tell NoJ they did more work so pay them more.
now go buy your DLC that costs more than the game itself like a good boy.seriously it's Treehouse just thinks they have divine right to redo anything because they are Nintendo so they don't have to 'respect' others work, even their own companies.

>>376950051
You NEED to explain why you like it to be told why you are wrong, dumb fucker.
>>376949806
Fire Emblem isn't the same genre as tactics games. Disgaea, Tactics Ogre, Final Fantasy Tactics, etc are strategy RPGs, while Fire Emblem is more a strategy game with RPG elements. It's Advance Wars with heroes... Kind of like how Warcraft 3 is an RTS that added heroes and RPG elements

Hey, thanks bro.
I've played Shining Force, Tactics Ogre, Final Fantasy Tactics + Advance games, Front Mission, Jeanne d'Arc, and a bit of Eternal Eyes. I've also played games like Rhapsody and Popolocrois, which had a similar grid-like combat system for battles but were otherwise standard JRPGs.

Fire emblem is better than virtually every SRPG on the market. Only series better than it is X-Com. Shit like FFT and Disgaea are literal garbage made for babies and the only reason they are liked are because of their plots, not gameplay.
>>376955265

Looks like someone has never played Super Robot Taisen or even Advance Wars. You do realize that Tactics Ogre, FF Tictacs, and FE aren't the only SRPGs, right? FE sin't even the special snowflake in terms of talking to NPCs mid match to recruit them. SRT does the same shit.
Next you're gonna say Live-a-Live is a board game or an FPS or something.
>>376959247
>Dispute this
Nearly every Awakening map is line the one on the bottom. Shining Force, Tactics Ogre, and Final Fantasy Tactics games all look like the one on the top.
Some other games, like Front Mission, don't look like either because some of the basic assumptions (like attack range and accuracy/damage calculation) are considerably different. Front Mission might frequently have "open" areas, but the concerns involve roads for rapid travel and height or obstructions providing additional miss chances.

>Bandits who will go raid villages
They have retarded AI and charge at your characters if in range, rather than raid the village.
Also, that "every other map" picture looks exactly like pic related, a Fire Emblem map.
>>376960443
>>Other Army - Bonus if they survive
>What bonus?
Anon seems to mean a third, AI-controlled allied group. Keep them alive and you typically get a bonus from them at the end of the map, either a new character or some new equipment.
>>376959389
>>376959924
Actually, I'm not even the Anon that they replied to. I was just posting a response to mock the "nintenbro" censor.
I have other SRPGs I prefer over Fire Emblem, although I still like the older Fire Emblem for their more strategy and less for the RPG system. Sure, the levels and randomized stat game can give playthroughs some variance, but it's the design of the older FE games (despite the flaws) which make them interesting.
>>376960443
No, this is a real FE map.

>>376960894
>>376961002
>>376961051
Considering that >>376959247 says that "every other SRPG" looks like the map at the bottom, I don't see why I can't use an Awakening map as an example for the entire Fire Emblem series. It's basically the same thing.
>>376961051
>>376961338
Yeah, some of the later chapters can be brutally difficult.
>>376961338
12, 17, 20, 24, 26 are pretty much on par or even more difficult than 10 imo. 25 and Endgame are both definitely more difficult than 10.
>>376960894
this one too fuck laguz
>>376961483
Because not all FE games are Awakening.
>>376961338
I remember that one chapter with the pots was a logistical clusterfuck. I think it was Chapter 12.
>>376947047
Uh, what? Fates had spectacular gameplay, albeit mostly in Conquest.
>decent writing
Do you even play these fucking games? If I were IS I'd fire all my writers and hire some hobos off the street because my dog could write better than the people currently writing the FE games.
>>376951917
It's only one part of the game, and even if someone plays it only for that reason; what wrong with liking a particular mechanic?
You can enjoy building a team AND enjoy playing the maps.
>The only way to make FE look bad is to compare them to classic Square masterpieces from over 20 years ago
Come on now, comparing any RPG to god-tier stuff like FFT and Ogre Battle is unfair.
>>376961051

This is where the game becomes Bolting Simulator
>>376961051
>>376960894

Don't forget me lads.

>>376960443
>>New units/Enemy you can recruitDoesn't matter, the main characters are so stupidly overpowered that they can solo the game.
T. Easy-Difficulty Player
>>376962005
What about me?
>>376962267
It varies by game. Fates was a case of really shitting the bed in lore and worldbuilding while some of the older games did a fantastic job with it like Path of Radiance and even Genealogy of the Holy War to an extent.
>>376962267
It's really not great. There are some interesting stories usually involving ancient heroes that previously saved the world, but for the most part the lore is pretty average; lots of stupid-evil villains, dragons, ancient evil, etc.
>>376959247
Fact: the addition of more and more """complexity""" to FE is actually merely the addition of more layers of RNG.
This is a big reason why it took Awakening and waifus in order for the series to not die, it's only good as a grid-based collectathon and for jacking off to Lucina porn.
>>376953797

>>376962592
t. pussy
Look up "risk management". Gambling is fun.
>>376962592
>"""complexity"""
Do you mean skills and class changes? Even if you dislike those mechanics they don't really add more rng fuckery.
And what's wrong with a game having a level of complexity? Does it hurt you anon? Is thinking difficult or frustrating?
Nintendo is at least smart enough to keep making these games in small doses. SE in the other hand takes decades for single title.
>>376962713
>>376962689
look at his posted picture. you got b8ed, but whenevr. you are bored and lonely and are basically just talking to yourself
>>376962713
And neurotypicals realize that gambling on 30 minute chapters isn't fun. No amound of "turtling hard enough will turn that 89% into a 90%" will change that fact.
>>376962496
Having just started Fates, was Fates the first game in the series to make the main character a Dragon?
>>376962920
No that would be FE6 since Eliwood/Ninian is canon. :^)
>>376962920
Pretty much, yeah. It doesn't even mean much in the grand scheme either, so it feels like they did it just to make Corrin look super extra special compared to other FE main characters.
>>376962713
>Gambling is fun.
But not interesting.
Perhaps it isn't surprising the Fire Emblem Heroes is so popular around here, with that attitude.
>>376962592
I'd say the bigger problem with the "complexity" is that it ended up wrecking some important design balance, which made the game less strategic. Berserkers used to wreck Knights due to their high damage and high crit chance, but could barely deal with sword users due to their low accuracy. That didn't matter against Knights (since they were still fast enough to double, and got an accuracy buff vs. spears) but was devastating when a Myrmidon is hitting you. Now, Berserkers just have a bit more HP and maybe more strength than other units, and axes have just turned into a flavor rather than a high STR/high CRIT weapon. There isn't a strategic advantage of putting out a Berserker over a Myrmidon or any other unit outside the enemies being weak to the Axe element.

>>376962414
DELETE THIS RIGHT NOW
>>376963862
The combat of heroes is so watered down it's insulting to compare it to a mainline fire emblem game. FE maps often take into account things like what level your characters are, what classes you have access to, and what items you have to craft a challenge but all of that goes out the window when you can just buy 5*s and grind your way to victory.
I'm not saying there aren't FE games that don't also allow for that with Awakening/Fate's DLC and oldschool arena abusing but it wasn't actually encouraged the way it is in Heroes.
>>376963862
Heroes doesn't have an evil dragon plot, so it's not a real Fire Emblem like #FE is.
>>376964530
By your logic FE5, 8, 9, and 10 aren't real FE games.

I loved the str/mag hybrid classes they introduced in awakening so you can build a wallbreaker, a unit with extra utility, or a straight up magic weapon user. Owain as a trickster, war cleric, or demon hunter(might have the class name wrong, from the awakening DLC) was fun as fuck.
