>>342354363
Shinon is actually better if you count RD.

Rolf is actually mediocre as a unit in PoR but he gets a great weapon unique to him and has more time to grow than Shinon in a game where you can't get rng-screwed (bexp).

So even though Shinon is shit in PoR l, since hes he best archer in RD, he's more worth it to invest on than Rolf in PoR.

That being said archers range from being terrible to mediocre units and Shinon is good even without the PoR bonus in RD so why even bother?

Gameplay-wise conquest.

The story is bad though on all three fronts even though it had a lot of potential and an interesting concept.

Birthright is only a slightly better Awakening.

Revelations is like a birthright with better map design, Conquest still has much better.

Fates is shit, conquest is the only good part of it.

If you allow it, I need to rant about this new guide line for Fire Emblem.

I love V, Thracia, 7, Sacred Stones, the GC/Wii ones, but i cant swallow these new ones. Awakening have somewhat good mechanics (pairing is intersting), but map design and character development isnt for my taste. I even didnt bother with fates or the wii u one after playing Awakening.

I just wanted V remake with high res sprites. ;-;

no it's not bad, just ignore the fact that IS hired a famous writer for the sole purpose of making the story for this game good, and dropping all of it, because it would be too controversial.

What are peoples opinion on FE6? After being one of those guys who got into the series with 7 and Advance wars, I decided naturally to play the earlier GBA title.

They hired a pretty well known writer to help them with the story. The outline he did for Birthright was about 500 pages or something. It's why Birthright is the only one with a somewhat passable story, even though a lot of things got dropped or changed. I don't know what the deal was with conquest though.
Revelations was written by the guy who wrote PLxAA.

Not at all, he's pretty much worthless. The best archers are Briggid, Jamka, Shinon, Cliff (if you make him an archer), and Niles.

Ike is the strongest lord by natural fighting abilities. Strongest/best swordsman in all of Tellius and his fighting prowess and sword skills were wanked to hell and back in 3 games with Awakening calling him a "Unparalleled Warrior". No other lord was wanked on that much and Ike was proven capable of fighting without blessing and a regular sword. Ashera was just overpowered in lore.

By far.

Ike has superior abilities and swordmanship, but Roy is smarted and more stategic. (He would give Robin a run for his money as a tactician)

I do agree greatly that Ike would beat Roy if he doesnt have the Sword of Seals with extreme ease.

But one strike from Roy's SoS will kill Ike.

That's what I was getting at. Ike is the strongest by natural strength and skills of all the lords. Roy is the strongest overall with his special toothpick compensating for power and skill.

>I do agree greatly that Ike would beat Roy if he doesnt have the Sword of Seals with extreme ease.

>But one strike from Roy's SoS will kill Ike.

Correct. Ike isn't the brightest and only fighting is his main thing seeing as how he's getting more fightsexual with his later appearances.

I was excluding anything that's not part of them like Yune's blessing and SoS. If I included them Roy would win in power by a long shot compared to other lords unless Ike kept all of Yune's power somehow.

Lorewise, the Elibe holy weapons are the strongest given that they fucked up the world by merely being swung around, Roy's army has all 9 of them.

Though it's kinda hard to actually take it given that in practice this means nukes with incredibly limited uses on units that are so so at best, but if we go by lore, it's them.

I don't see why Noncanon!Awakening and Tellius would be stronger than Gen 2 FE4. You have a bunch of madmen swinging around holy weapons in a continuity where continuous inbreeding makes one man armies instead of retards.
>>
>>342376887
>Tellius Army
I think it's like previous post from Ikefag

They're just raw power with Laguz kings/royals and war veterans from Mad King's war from 3 years prior. The only power they received is at the end of RD is just blessed weapons by Yune to fight Ashera's buffed up bosses, they're not blessed themselves like BK's armor to be invincible.

Other continent's OP weapons stumped them.

>>342376372
>I was thinking Noncanon!Awakening (Grima, Two Exalted Falchions, Ragnell)
How is that stronger than Book of Naga, Forseti, Tyrfing, Mistletainn, Yewfelle and a multiple use revival staff?

You also need to take in consideration that the blessing from Ragnell seems to have weakened after millennia and that Robin killing Grima means he can't ever tap into that power potential.

Mostly because they have Two Exalted Falchions, Grima and a weakened Ragnell aside of Tiki.

But if Tellius and Notcanon!Awakening are not in the list, would you put Gen2 FE4 as 2?

Alright, then.

Gen2 FE4

Might as well keep going later when you're up for it again. The maps get really intense towards the end. Chapter 17 can lick a dick though.

Is Robin actually strong fighter without counting Future Robin/Grima?

All I can see is that he's just some tactician who appears to be an insane genius compared to others.

Did he lose a fight/spar to another person in a support?

Drop that shitty "non canon Awakening". That's just being used for Grima. Fuck off. What they have is Tiki, two Exalted Falchions (which seems to just be as strong as the regular Marth Falchion) and a falling apart Ragnell.

Magvel would probably come after Gen2 FE4 due to the high number of holy weaponry and the strength of their manakete.

After it, I'd say the Marth's army, you have Tiki, Nagi, the Binding Shield, Falchion and the other regalia (Parthia, Mercurius and Gradivus. However, those three aren't holy weapons per see, so it ends up being a question: which one is stronger between two Holy Dragons, an usable Binding Shield and Falchion and three lesser holy weapons against two swords blessed by a goddess and a bunch of laguz royals?
>>
>>342378067
Sorry, forgot Hauteclare. Also do Excalibur, Aura and Starlight count as regalia? I mean, you can get multiple copies of those.

The impression I got was that he was mediocre in swordplay but excelled in magic, which balanced him out.
The fact that he also uses his brain probably puts him at above average.

Sold PoR and RD for some mad dosh on amazon.

Have FE7 and Sacred Stones. Which should I play?
>>
Still waiting for that remake.

Come on IS, it should be obvious that FE7 remake comes out next, they don't have to make much effort to create a new world or story, and the tactician self insert is already there to be revamped to current mechanic.

Even though genealogy should be remade first since it already has better child mechanic and story than Fates, Sigurd NTR and incest theme would make Nintendo go banal and censor it to oblivion.

>Inb4 FE4 remake tactician gets roasted along with Sigurd and you have to play your child no matter how shit he is

I've tried multiple times but I can only really get into the GBA games. each of them has their strengths and something about them that lets me go back to them again and again.

the console games (4/5/9/10) have More Features but all those features feel poorly implemented or needless complications to the strrategy stuff. also the chapters take way too fucking long (due to being huge in the snes games and due to enemy turns taking forever even with animation off in 9/10)

the DS games are kinda flat because they're weird remixies of NES games and the 3DS games don't really feel like fire emblem to me, they're so full of RPG elements that they feel more like a weird jank version of final fantasy tactics

GBA games have great art, combat that's a bit more pure and strategy based (how to move units, when to use what items and what units to pick) instead of tactics based (spend tons of time setting up item/skill builds for characters and then watching them kill everyone), map design that's not needlessly huge (but still intricate enough for the most part) and they have enough story depth to keep things interesting without going overboard like later games.

call me a pleb if you must, I just can't get into other parts of the series
>>
Why is Ragnell and Alondite revered so much? They're at most good crafted swords blessed to be invincible. At most they gained the ability to shoot shockwaves, but that's it.

They were only a means of fighting other things that were blessed to be invincible like BK armor and mantle. They're not that impressive to consider.

That's a good thing for an MC. Not an overpowered garystu who strong as fuck. I hope we don't get another person like Ike who strong as fuck or Roy with an OP weapon. Just some average guy who gets put into a war and tries to match up with absolute powerhouses.

Also, not a little bitch like Corrin
>>
>>342378629
Both.
SS is a bit on the easier side but it's still really good.
>>
>>342378961
One thing that annoys me about Corrin is how the Yato chose him. He's the chosen one special snowflake from the very beginning. Look at the other lords, usually they had to fight and earn their good stuff.

I mean, Lyn also got her special weapon early, but it was just a zero worth Rapier, it wasn't a holy weapon capable of incredible things. Didn't even grant any stats.

Robin was a self-insert too but he wasn't even that good outside of strategies/tactics. Only special snowflake points he gets is Grima's blood and that doesn't even do him any good and only serves as a means to kill off Grima.

I hope we get a game where the Self-insert isn't special or not even the central figure in the story, just some guy who helps out the Lord like FE12(without dicksucking).
>>
>>342355770
Conquest is mechanically the best game

>>342365185
I didn't get the good ending on my playthrough, but I found myself underwhelmed with the game. One thing it did do, though, was make me like Wyvern knights. Only for that game, though. Although there's always Haar. You can't not like Haar.

Why? You, the player, are the one leading the army. Self inserts should never have gotten a playable role.

I meant fight in as I contribute to the cause, not exactly one of the people who lead the army or a high position, just one of the officers/soldiers.

>Self inserts should never have gotten a playable role.
I'm fine with no self-inserts. I'm just putting out that if there is going to be self-insert, atleast don't make it all special like you're the chosen one.

Haven't seen it.
Honestly, the writing is not ALL terrible. Plenty of the support conversations and even some of the mainstory dialogue is okay, as far as jrpgs go. But at least half of it is absolutely awful.

when are they gonna mix up the lord formula?

I want an old grizzled veteran lord

>>342370987
I'll never understand how people get so into this shit.
I consider myself a fan of the series, having completed every english release on normal or hard. But I can't imagine actually focusing so much on the castle stuff. Maybe my autism has not reached that level yet.
>>
>>342383050
that will literally never happen

awakening/fates sold well by pandering to japan and in japan a grizzled old dude protagonist simply doesn't sell (see ff12 and mgs2 for examples)

it also doesn't really work gameplay wise because a grizzled old dude wouldn't start at level 1

Possibly yes.

That Medeus is a "threat to the planet".

That is just a quote, not an actual feat, tho.

Itsuki would be the weak if it turns out that Medeus can only bust Tokyo.

But, hey.
Him singing until reaching the clouds is subsonic, making him kinda fast.

Sorry for the delay, i was drawing Lyn.
