Lex passes on paragon though. He's at least an okay father to literally everyone.

i like how when you give holsety to arthur the game literally breaks and enemies will just refuse to attack him because he has too much evade

I do think the games would be better with more limited S pairings. Not just from a writing standpoint but from a gameplay one. With the way inheritance worked in Fates I literally had to write massive spreadsheets to gain even the most basic understand of what kids would look like with certain pairings. Awakening was just about manageable but when you have class conditionals as well as stat conditionals trying to understand the system gets crazy.

Though the luck stat is highly random so maybe if he rolls well it'll push them to zero hit.

Magic kid -> Give magic mom Physical kid -> Give physical mom Alternatively pair up whoever you think looks cute together because the game is not difficult enough that you need to minmax. Pureauthor fucked around with this message at 05:41 on Nov 7, 2016 |

Carefully optimized eugenics is its own reward. Or it was in Awakening, anyway. In Fates, for lack of anything like Apotheosis to throw a team of optimized uberkids at I couldn't even be assed to finish setting them all up or to care all that much when I accidentally wiped that file.

I very much enjoyed planning things while waiting for NoE to be done with with the FIGS translation my country wouldn't use anywayhandhelds don't use video formats anyway what the gently caress does Australia still count as PAL for, but as far as actually executing it in-game beyond just "yeah, these are the pairings I'm going for"? Ehhh.

In Fates, for lack of anything like Apotheosis to throw a team of optimized uberkids at I couldn't even be assed to finish setting them all up or to care all that much when I accidentally wiped that file. I think the online is also a negative factor here. Being able to buy the skills you want means that they're much less interesting from a pairing standpoint. Why reclass and deal with E rank hell when you could just pick up the skill from some other schmuck? Hurts enthusiasm at the start when you're theorycrafting, and with no ultra maps (and with Fates's DLC design philosophy meaning any challenge maps would probably give you preset units anyway), it's hard to give a poo poo, even beyond the way the kids are obviously tacked on. It's a shame. The game has a lot of potentially neat systems in play with reclassing and skills, but there's no real reason to engage with them outside of multi, where hacking ruins the tiny bit of potential left that the bad idea had in the first place.

Endorph posted:uh, lol Lunatic Classic conquest no grinding no royals plus whatever other rules I'd add on as I got more and more bored. In retrospect, I probably shouldn't have put so many restrictions on myself. Also from a perception perspective, most growth rates will hover between around 40 and 60% or so. The issue I find is that I perceive those to be similar enough to be indifferent most of the time, whereas in FE they matter a lot. Also, I like spreadsheets. Manatee Cannon posted:you could have just used the inheritance planner instead you know I never found one that showed me everything that I wanted. At best there were sheets that showed endgame stats and abilities but I couldn't find anything that showed all of those and growths.

TIL Fates doesn't save your chapter action by action. This was probably a thing since awakening or something and silly me forgot. But i still owned myself leaving the battery to die instead of finishing the last turn of the chapter I've been on for two days.

Tired Moritz posted:I unironically really love lost in thoughts all alone and I want Matthew Mercer to serenade me I like it okay (End of All Land is excellent, I'll admit that one for free.) but holy Hell it was overused. Like, half the tracks in the game pulled from it, it's one of Azura's vocal bits, she sings it in combat... Even a really good track gets old with that treatment, especially if it has vocals.

Battle Saves were cool in the DS games since they were limited and took an action to use.

Rage quitting from a crit killing someone in the GBA game was the best because if you picked up your GBA later and forgot what you were doing you would immediately get reminded as the game replays the battle. I actually liked it a lot functionally. Not as exploitable as Battle Saves but still let you turn off your GBA whenever since Sleep Mode wasn't really a thing yet.

Oh, yeah. I was considering mentioning it, but I figured everyone who uses it already has the link directly. Also because of all the missing images I have to watch git choke on for a while one day.  E: To be clear, because the URL isn't, that's the mod I did that rudimentarily includes the gayhack pairings. AlphaKretin fucked around with this message at 15:08 on Nov 8, 2016 |
