FUCK THIS CHAPTERFire Emblem Thread
Dude, we can't have Fire Emblem threads anymore. It inevitably just devolves into waifus and Farmville.

Then let's talk about Warriors instead.
Echoes is the best Fire Emblem game since Path of Radiance.

Fuck that was hard.

You've never played the game have you?
>>389961959
Cool story, so what got you into Fire Emblem in the first place? what's your favorite entry and would you like it if the games dropped 3D altogether and got back to that sweet GBA sprite aesthetic?
>>389962175
>tfw no hector
>Only awakening and and fates shit
>No x no buy
Done
>>389962559
Huh? Are you playing some romhack where they teleport to you or some shit? You have about 2 turns before the enemies reach where your deployment spots are.
>>389961619
>green units show up
>think they will help me like every other game with green ally units
>they kill me instead
This chapter was bullshit.
24x and the xavier level were shittier
Celica is best girl.

Would you have preferred if #FE was like Echoes in some ways, i.e. FE style battles in dungeons where you battle monsters/demonic beasts like Deimos or Bonewalkers but the SMT equivalent?
>>389963284
came here to post this
you don't even know, OP

>>389964753
I actually liked #FE quite a bit, I'm not sure what else I wanted out of it, other than maybe some heavier mainline SMT stuff. I feel like if every battle played out like a traditional FE battle, ala Echoes, things would get pretty boring pretty quickly, because let's be honest, the maps in Gaiden/Echoes are pretty shit, especially for the dungeon battles.
>>389965196
Well I don't mean exactly like Echoes, I mean SMT style dungeon design like in SMTIVA. The battles could be more similar to DeSu if you wish.
I liked the dungeons in Echoes though, best part.
>>389964753
yes
>>389964753
I would've preferred if #FE hadn't existed.

Which was this from
>>389961619
>Fire Emblem thread
>Thracia 776 topic opener
What are you doing OP, /v/ has only played Awakening and Fates.
Is there a good Tracia 776 translation out yet? And I don't mean "they translated most of the items and the cutscenes are moonrunes so at least it's playable" I mean "I don't have to seem moonrunes while playing from start to finish".
>>389967879
>there's the old passable story translation but the menus are garbage
>there's a great menu translation that came out 6 months ago
>there's no way to combine them
Just fucking kill me, I wanna play it already.
>>389967879
No, just go play Shaya's patch already.
>>389967879
>>389968097
I recommend the menu translation over any of the attempted story translations.
>>389961619
FE5 is my favourite game, ask if you need any specific help.
Ch14 is pretty easy, you can even wall off around the start with unarmed mounts if you want to be super safe. Or better yet, use your formation to feed exp to a unit; I've loaded homer up with scrolls and capped most of his stats in this chapter alone.
>>389967557
it's an enemy only unit from FE the sacred stones. i thought it was neat it looked a lot the three headed cerberus from SMT. it shares the mane and rat tail and all.
>>389968339
Huh. I wish FE branched into monster design more, from what they've done a lot has been great.
>>389968310
>FE5 is my favourite game
good taste anon, there is some bullshit here and there for a blind run but the map design and overall mechanics are goat
>>389968428
they're pretty cool.
>>389968310
>>389961619
Here's a screenshot from the 0% growths warpless LTC run I did recently. Dean and Eda flew out of the encirclement to pillage the southwest corner; the thief and sleep staves were used to disable the boss and ballista. This formation let me level characters safely, Tina in particular got exp from surviving attacks.I guess I might as well post this again since it's a FE5 thread: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLcUnDcs3XizIW1sHgILvkkQgAXipP70Cm
I'll improve on this run someday. I could use some suggestions and feedback.
>>389962590
I honestly prefer the 3D models of Fates and Echoes. I like it when you can actually see the models react to getting attack.
>>389969456
This image stresses me out.
Oh hi, did someone say something about maps? I have a map here, I thought you all might like it.
>>389970174
>A level 1 piece of cardboard and level 1 promoted horse is force deployed in this unclefucker of a map
Why
>>389970174
>GBA desert maps
Who was it that thought these were a good idea?
Pic related isn't much better though.
>>389970174
>>389970386
>fog of war
>manaketes
>wyvern riders
>mages
>bandits from the back
>randomized items hidden in the sand
>turn limit
>>389970567
And you don't want to leave without that precious, precious guiding ring. It's criminal how few of those you're given
>>389970412
FE4 maps with lots of deserts or forests are borish cancer.
>>389970386
If she didn't have staves she would arguably be one of the worst prepromotes of all time.
>>389970174
Are desert maps ever good? At least in the newer games we can kind of get by with using mages and flying units. I was pretty annoyed at mages also getting the movement penalty in Echoes though
>>389970785
>Jamke blocks your path!
>>389971073
you know a lot of people say gen1 is the better part but this map, silesia, and the previous posted map put me to fucking sleep.
Give me a quick rundown on swamps.
>>389971874
They're icky
>>389971659
I agree, about half of the Gen 1 maps are boring as shit, especially with the music choices.
I feel like Gen 2 really picks up the pace in terms of gameplay. You don't feel as scared to put your good units in the front lines and let them tear shit apart, and things just seem to move quicker.

my favorite was chapter 6, meeting all those children of the fallen heroes for the first time. Lakche in particular was love at the first sight.
>>389972460
>Paired up Ayra with Lex in Gen 1
>Lakche/Larcei and Ulster both get Elite
>They're able to solo entire maps completely by themselves
Fuck, I love it when you get super fucking human characters in FE.
>>389972460
shut up johan. i kill both you and your brother.
>>389971073
you're a big map
>>389972887
for MU
Reminder that you still need to play TRS
>>389971874
Got a nice swamp for you right here
>>389974171
Worst map in TRSit offers a lot of experience for Sun with the Demon Slayer skill though
What was the third plan
>>389971068
pic related. The other desert maps were either too much of a breeze or too much of a slog. Running into these wyverns blind was a real wake up call. I'm not sure if I enjoyed the green wyverns in FE5 or these 1-2 range 12 movement wyverns more.
>>389961619
i actually had no problem with this chapter, other than sending that dragon guy down there to get his item. i did have arena trained swordswomen/men all over the place though...
>>389969016
My favorite is the Mogalls. I know they're just flying eye enemies with tentacles, but they looks damn good in the new art.
>>389971068
Any map that inhibits movement by lowering the stat is automatically trash.
>>389962590
This is Tethys. Here's 5 facts about her:
She is cute!
She's a dancer!
She's the cutest dancer in the FE series!
I love her!
CUTE!
Are there any games like Fire Emblem I can play on my pee cee?
Is emulating some older Fire Emblem the way to go?
I played Expeditions Conquistador and Eador Masters of the Broken World and they have this turn based hex grid combat where you move the guys you made and upgraded around strategically, it's autistic chess basically
Maybe I should just play HoMM, but I'm thirsting for more of this "chess" type of video game so I'm also interested in Fire Emblem and whatnot
>>389962590
I just want Mercenaries to go back to being smug motherfuckers.
>>389977368
just emulate.
Every Fire Emblem pre-Awakening is easily emulated in a translated, playable form, aside from FE5/Thracia 776 which has either a menu translation or a story translation, choose your poison.
Depending on what you've already played here's what I recommend (in order):
FE7
FE6
FE8
FE9 & 10
FE4
FE5
>>389977686
Thanks Anon!
I was wondering which I should start with since there are so many
>>389977368
Play HoMMfive
No problem. FE7 and FE8 are both great starting points. The only reason I included FE6 in between them is because technically FE 7 is a prequel to FE6, but it's not that important that stories are followed, aside from 9 and 10.
>>389977782
While i strongly advise against starting the series with FE 5, it's a great entry and personally my favorite.
If you feel like a game is a slog due to large empty route maps, give it a try.
>>389977928
Yeah I would probably go with that one or get III on GoG
>>389978239
I get that, there's a few series where I feel like my favorite entry is definitely not the one you should start with myself
When I get the time to Fire Emblem and take a liking to the series I will make sure to play 5 later on and not skip over it
>>389978556
if you're lucky, maybe there will be an actually complete translation of the game by then.
>>389962590
I played Advance Wars. I liked Advance Wars. I playedFates. I liked the characters interactions and the relationships aspect.
I hate the implementation of children in Fates.
>>389978657
I doubt that unless it takes him like 5 years to play through every FE game.
bookofholsety was going to do FE5 after finishing 4 but he's been MIA since like February to my knowledge.
>>389971073
Fuck this chapter and fuck the forest.
Why is thracia 776 the only good Fe game?
