The dark mages incorporate hexes and curses and the like as passive debuffs to enemies around them.

I imagine in future entries you might see them adapt more active debuffing magic as a magic-based counterpart to the knives/shurikens(magic shuriken aside), what with bows' extreme buff and magic's simplified diversification.

It was surprisingly decent, unlike fates' child DLC that got split into 7 parts and still manages to not be as enjoyable as FP. Though that's not helped by the kids being nothing more than cash grab additions compared to Awakening's kids which were actually plot relevant

because she was just the right amount of fun adn normal in a girl to be appealing. Her only drawback was not having a no pig-tails option, hair down lissa a best.

No idea, id like to see them try console again but at the same time i dont want to buy one, plus unless they suddenly bring their A game in terms of writing(not saying much but PoR/RD were pretty okay in terms of scope) it could be good.

But more than likely itll stick to handheld, its worked better for them in the long run. PoR/RD sold for shit compared to their other titles, all i can hope for is that theyll either stop with the red/blue shit they did with fates or make them truly 2 seperate games, not this 2 sides of the saem story bullshit that left both feeling half-assed cause "muh true end dlc"

mostly the same, i used a few just because they were well above their parents in terms of growth/start stats.

Level scaling/offspring seals were a fantastic idea that i wish had been awakening

There's really no point to distinct typing when everybody can use any type, and the statistical difference is trivial(and restricting it by element is retarded anyway).

It also ties into the better rebalancing that comes about as a result of eliminating weapon usage. Things that perform effective damage have to be restricted in some way.

Honestly, the only real issue is just the same thing that plagued mages in PoR/RD. Mages just don't grow that well compared to other specialized units, bows are buffed much better, and the wholesale utility of magic isn't too hot. Not to mention the addition of much more physical weapons that can attack at 1-2 range like the hidden weapons and many bows.

Honestly, all mages would really need is better magic stat growth across the board, and maybe some skill and speed to at least keep up with other midrange classes like paladin or hero, and they'll fit their niches properly.

Or if they don't do a whole faction-wide class splitting, the diviner/mage line could just be raw magic nuking with a line of more powerful tomes on top of access to staves and better magic growth/caps, while dark mages would be focused on magic-based debuffing and have moderately better survivability.

>>344894798
That's if they dont just delete dark mages altogether, as is theyve been less and less of a class since 6/7. Technically awakening brought them back, but they were just mage+1 in that and standalone mages were shit if memory serves.

>>344894993
Lunatic birthright level ups were fixed, so if a character had a 20% stat growth, every 5 levels would net a +1 i nthat stat. It made shitty growth units REALLY shit, i.e. Rinkah with her SHIT STR/SKL/SPD

I really think some of thier devs left after the PoR/RD time period. Nothings quite lived up to those 2 in overall scope since. Which reminds me, i really wish theyd reimplement the point cost on skills, fates did well to make them less broken, but theyre still bonkers if you put in the work/gold

Possibly, though people would likely want some skills for a class. Another thing they could do is make a personal and a class skill that is locked to that class, then use your idea for the rest

RD was broken by a select few chars with the right skills set, and only at/near end-game, which is just about the norm for any FE game post 5.
Fates can be broken at any point through buying skills/grinding and by any character though use of skill combos. Awakening was worse than both obviously.

RD's biggest imbalance was that non-royals were garbage

Not really. There were a lot of useless/bad characters throughout the game that had at least some uses because of the way availability worked.

Strange she had no problems capping speed early for me, str is very give or take, and her damage output pales in comparison to Hana, but she doesn't get one-rounded by fucking everybody, especially in the chapter where she gets the +10/10 damage taken skill.

my 1st 2 runs with her had her SPd just up to par with being able to double slow classes, and not be doubled by the speedier classes, while her STR just sat around average. Ill give you her def/res/skl are solid, ive never had any issus with those so shes a solid attacker when it comes to receiving damage, Sol helps too obviously. But compared to other merc/heroes in the past she is just sad, specially given her "perfectionist" history youd think shed be all around great

>>344902369
No its perfectly normal to dislike awakening, fates is better in the mechanics department but if you disliked awakening for plot/chars, fates wont help that much. Try 8/9 or 4/5 if you want some older style games.

Before I played Awakening, I thought Tharja was this boring, sexy, flirty sorceress, just going by what I'd seen of her on image boards and porn.

Then I actually played the game and OH GOD MUH DIIIIIIIICK!

Basically, she's my ideal woman and her 'Normal Training' is one of the funniest things in the game.

I'd like to get into the FE series, but it seems so weird that practically none of the games are connected, storywise.
My brother got Awakening on his 3DS, so he told me to try it, and I did like it. Both the tactical battle gameplay, and the character/waifu bonds and story you can build.
Should I just get over my inhibitions?

>>344903925
Forgot to add you could give fats a try too, since it has all the systems of awakening but more fine tuned, as for which one to get, Birthright is most like awakenings style and is the easier of the 3, while Conquest is similar to older FE style in terms of map design and classes. Can choose based on that, with your dick, or get both, and go from there.

Your supports were basically the both of you trolling the shit out if each other because you didn't really understand what to do with your feelings.

Anons like me can certainly relate.

Youd have to lose a lot of characters to make late game impossible, and most of them would have to be your good characters. As for dialogue, theres some line differences but nothing changes directly in plot if a character dies

why is a lack of story connections weird? Why do they all have to be linked up in one convoluted timeline that only serves to complicate things and ruin characters, like every other decades-spanning story-based series.

Instead, you get pairs of games that are related, some more closely than others - 6 and 7, 9 and 10, Awakening and Fates, etc.

>>344904426
The game's balanced around you losing people to some degree and everyone is usable, but you're definitely going to feel it if you lose certain characters like Effie or Silas in Conquest.
Characters that have story relevance "retreat" instead of die. They're functionally dead but will still show up in cutscenes.

I'm gonna give FE7 a try
Is there an avatar to represent "you" the player or is that more of an awakening thing?

She appeals to the same audience that Elise does, being the "cute younger girl who is just super cute and childish!" Only difference is that Lissa is a bit more aware of it.
>>
>>344904836
But that's not her stock character type at all. She's even further removed in Japanese, where she's just a toned down female Owain.
>>
>>344904695
It's Lucina.
>>
>>344904836
Sakura is the same shit, except Elise IS a better unit
>>
>>344904736
Awakening and Fates have the custom character, the other games just star Chrom-likes as the MC.

They have supports, but they're much more limited - usually restricted to 5 supports per character (that means getting to A with one character, then to B with another). No marriage or children, not a single support turns outright romantic.

There are many characters better written and more engaging than the schlock found in Awakening.
>>
>>344904736
There's an avatar but he doesn't do anything. It's just there so the characters can talk to you.
>>
>>344904602
I don't even know why it's bothering me, really.
Like, it's the same reason I haven't really played any Final Fantasy games, despite the fact that everyone dickrides FF7 as one of the best games of all time. I do want to try it but it still feels weird for some reason.
The fact that it bothers me with these games, actually bothers me further because I've played through the souls games and I like them.
>>
>>344904736
there is a tactician you "play" as, but its nothing more than the game talking to you here and there, you have no direct influence on plot. There is no bonding shit, there is supports, and you can only have 5 supports per character, some will have paried endings, some wont.

>>344904751
Then id say try classic/hard first and see how you do, though it largely depends what route you take, hard birthright is a joke for example.

>>344904781
Because its CASUAL lunatic, and if hes doing birthright that's almost he same as hard/conquest, lunatic sucks when its classic, but its doable as casual, where losing a unit doesnt decimate you the entire rest of the game. Sides i said hard OR lunatic
>>
>>344905153
I'd say it's just some mild strain of autism. Games are best when they aren't held down by a need to adhere to/advance some meta-storyline, just free to be their own thing. the Zelda Timeline was a mistake.

In FE7? Eh, debatable honestly. FE7 actually has one of the weaker casts. Yeah you have some gems like Hector, Matthew and Legault but most aren't really any better except that they trade being less gimmicky for more boring/generic.

Not him but on the whole the supports of FE7 give the characters more depth/likability than the awakening chars.

What hurt FE wasn't waifufags, it was shipperfags. There's no reason absolutely everybody needs to romance everybody else. Just give them all a half-dozen GOOD SUPPORTS, with men or women, some of them romantic sure, and call it a day.

I do prefer it to being blue-balled out of seeing much of anything like in the old games, though.

>>344905725
I don't think FE7's supports really gave them more depth, it's just that Awakening had far more supports. It's easy to feel that way when you aren't over-saturated with a higher volume of shitty ones.

Think of it this way. Pick the five best supports for each Awakening/Fates character and remove all of the others. Like I said, FE7 had some gems but after having gone back and played it early this year it came to me that a large portion of the cast really isn't that special. Sacred Stones and Tellius were much better there.

>>344906179
That's what i mean by oversaturation, theres just too many worthless supports in awakening/fates that depending on what you get, the character can be downright awful or otherwise boring, when that same char could have some actually pretty decent ones elsewhere. But maybe you're right and im just being a nostalgiafag or FE7, i havent read those supports in yrs, but i know for sure most of them were better than a good chunk of awakenings/fates.

Well again, it's not so much a question of being 'dumped down' as it is of volume. Looking at Awakening's and Fates' supports, it's obvious that some had more effort put into them than others. Just look at Cherche's supports for example. I get the idea that a lot of supports were just written to fill the quota.

Of course that's talking about the characters and supports. No denying that Awakening and Fates fucked up on the story front, though granted Awakening wasn't the first.

>>344907503
Thats still in a way dumbing it down, in that its now bloated with more badly, hastily written supports, that cover up the ones that are actually good. And honestly, awakenings plot wasnt even "terrible" by FE standards, it was just rushed towards the middle in my opinion, fates is what dropped the bar to a new low to me, both in plot and in adding extra content just because via the childern.

Its just sloppy writing for the sake of getting more sales, and thats always a slippery slope. Now granted, the kids were better implemented mechanically compared to awakenings, they still had no reason to exist at all.

>>344907758
Genealogy is the best in the series imo. It actually did the child mechanic right.

>>344906884

>>344907758
4 is jarring if youve only played post 7 FE. It's a very slow game, maps are huge, while movement is small, even mounted units take awhile to get where thy need to. But otherwise its a pretty solid game and is a good example on how you do child mechanics

6 is rough around the edges and has more characters than you know what to do with (though a good few of them are quite uninteresting).
7 is well-rounded and a pleasant experience throughout, with only a handful of shitty maps like the retarded pirate gaiden.
8 is my personal favorite, though I can understand why people dislike it. It's got the best story/characters of the three and some stellar fucking moments and levels. Even if balance is a bit janky compared to its predecessor it's not nearly as bad as people say (assuming you don't grind, which you shouldn't in any FE game).

Is there a game where this doesn't happen?

7's characters had more unique backstories, although Heath, Renault, and Vaida were interesting there were also nothing characters like Erk, whereas with 8 even Neimi and Amelia had backstories, also the supports acted like the other supports had already happened like Amelia asking Duessel to help her beat Franz, don't get me wrong, I like 7 more but that's part of why people like 8

He intervened in the Plegian ambush(and also sent Panne to stop Emmeryn's assassination attempt) and joined Chrom's army because he wanted ensure that the war would continue and he'd be able to find more stuff to fight.

The other half of it is that on one side you have the wealthy, religious fanatic Plegians and the totally-not-theirs army of the undead, and on the other hand, you have Chrom's Shepherds, a small volunteer force that basically serves as self-defense and law enforcement for a country that otherwise has no army. And that Henry frequently talks about finding a bloody end, so siding with the smaller group against the larger force would fit that goal.

Just out of curiosity, where are you playing it?

Because shes of a small batch of characters on all 3 routes known as MC-sexuals, some might get 1-2 other supports but MC is all they can fuck

What solid supports were there in SS? I honestly don't remember, it's been a long time since I've played that game. The only one I can remember being interesting was Ephraim/Dussel.

The characters weren't really bad per se, but I liked finding out the various relations in 7. The supports were the way of giving a story to the characters, and you ended up getting their personalities as well.

Plot was generic for a JRPG but admittedly different for Fire Emblem (fighting monsters instead of humans, not having a dragon as the last boss).

Naw, She looks terrible. Only waifufags can love that face. The shadows coming from her bangs, bags under eyes, creepy expression and facial features. She's not that high up in the face department in Awakening(despite sameface of other chars). That's suppose to fit in with her obsessive behavior with Robin. Only her body is good.

I think she'll look better when she's taking Gaius' THICK dagger

Kind of weird that he couldn't. I guess he was just there to shill how she is the most beautiful woman in the world so the player would fall in love with her.

Thank you for the picture.

>Because she seriously hopes you don't marry anyone but her

I don't understand. Why would anyone want to marry someone else? Even a gay couldn't be that gay.

Well Tiki, Cherche and Aversa are all more attractive so there's that. But you wouldn't know that, Tharjafag.
