I've never noticed their stubby little feet until now. Shouldn't have played the demo because I want this right now.

I'm really digging the variety of attack animations in this one. Every time I see a new one I think it's going to be a critical since the GBA one's have been engrained on me.

Fire Emblem:Awakening - What is wrong with their feet?

I really like how you can pair up your crutch character with your healer for more defense.

My Sully started really mediocre but she's slowly getting in gear and holy poo poo those three villagers are so loving brain dead. I had a rescue staff from the dlc and managed to pull one to safety only for him to run right into enemy lines again :downs:.

My Lon'qu has turned into an axe magnet which is really annoying given his speed. Later on he ate a %2 critical from a dark mage :negative:. I hope the other myrmidon is better because god drat.

I...I can't do it. I can't break the habit! I can't promote people before they hit 20! No!

...coincidentally, Sully just hit 20. :getin: I'm thinking Great Knight simply because Luna > Aegis.

I'm doing the same thing since it just doesn't feel right to promote someone lower than 20 for me.

Oh wow, Chapter 10.

Something as simple as not having a ~Fire~ version of the track completely nailed what they were going for. Wow.

They really nailed it in the music department in this game. Kinda sucks that the XL speakers sound so low without headphones.

On stat discussion - holy poo poo is my Chrom a monster. Level 8 and he has like 14 speed and 12 defense, as well as 12 strength and skill. He doubles everything!

The guy can pretty much solo everything once I promoted him.

I'm at a point where fliers are pretty worthless thanks to archers and rexcaliburs ahoy :sigh:. On the other hand a sorcerer with nosferatu and anyone that can pair up with them to give them 5 speed and magic is broken as gently caress. I had Tharja and Maribelle solo the entirety of chapter 20 except for the boss.

God drat I hate chapter 21 so much. Managed to beat it by deploying my best three units and having Jaffar steal poo poo since any healers are just going to die.

I restarted with a female MU this time and I can't wait to see how that plays out. I'm sorely disappointed that the eye patch is exclusive to the child character though.

I've noticed my reset count going sky high ever since I decided to actually use Chrom for fighting instead of back line supporting. He's such a lovely front line Lord.

In my first playthrough he was quite the opposite what with aethering all the time and destroying everyone. Then came Tharja and we all know how broken vengeance+nosferatu can be.

Underdog is pretty drat good when I got it. I had Donny run right into a mob and he evaded every single attack. I got him up to level 5 hero for sol and he's indestructible now.

That actually sounds like a really good idea, but Kellam is basically the only reliable tank I have right now, and there's no way I'm trusting my dodge tanks to not get hit more than twice on a consistent basis. Decisions, decisions...

You can get some boots later on and throw it his way if you want.

Beat the game tonight and the final battle was pretty cool even though I had to send in my 3 god units in the end. My healers kept getting swarmed with people throwing poo poo at them so I just said gently caress it. Henry can be insanely broken and I wouldn't want it any other way :allears:.

There's another one in that stage if you have Miriel fight Lilina. She senses a lot of magic potential from her and mentions that she would have fun dissecting her, to which Lilia protests that she's not a frog. And then Miriel finishes with "Oh I know, I'm not interested in frogs. But come at me then and let's see if you croak." I'm curious if there are any other conversations like that.

Lissa has one with Alm saying "I ate a bear once, you know. With my teeth!". Kellam and Virion also have a line with someone and I think every character does if the first and second dlc is anything to go by.

I've been thinking about what skills to give Henry. Is it worth reclassing into barbarian>berserker for gamble and wrath?

Very much so. I had a 95% crit chance on a poor berserker and with vengeance it's pretty much extreme overkill.

Haha, I just stepped on a sparkly tile with Henry:

"I want to die a horrible, bloody death that's completely painless. ...I don't like ouchies."

You're so insane, Henry.

"Hey Robin, do you think my eyeballs will melt if I stare into the sun?"

That came out of nowhere in the barracks and made me laugh. Everything Henry says is gold.

Noire and Laurent's A support is the greatest thing. I was disappointed at the lack of BLOOD AND THUNDER in the majority of her supports but that made up for it in spades.

I've generally been keeping on top of things, but I suppose I'll ask:

Does anybody think there's something missing from the OP, or that there's anything that should be changed?

Always have a rescue staff on hand just in case some suicidal dumbass needs saving.

Red Metal posted:

w.r.t support conversations, the number in this game is truly ludicrous. The first generation proper, not counting Anna, Tiki, and any storyline recruits after Henry, has a total of 175 support conversations, 24 of which are your Avatar (this isn't counting variations based on the Avatar's gender. I have no idea how many more that would add). Adding in the previously excluded characters adds another 10 supports, including Tiki's supports with Lucina and Nah. Five of those are Avatar (still discounting gender variations).

For the second generation, counting both male and female Morgan's conversations separately, you have 14 supports with their constant parent (one for each child), and 65 supports among each other. Adding in a non-parent Avatar gives another 12 supports, for 91 supports with the second generation, not counting their father (or mother in Lucina's and FMorgan's case), or Tiki's support with Lucina and Nah (they were counted above).

Adding in the supports with the other parent, that adds a total of 175 support conversations (which, if you note, is how many there were in the first generation :v:), 29 of which are Morgan's (not counting Morgan with a Spotpass Paralogue parent).

Adding in the Paralogues, you get another 12 supports, one with your Avatar and one with Morgan for each character.

This makes a total of 463 support conversations (not counting differences between different gendered Avatars. A naive count would add another 48, but I'm not sure how many are different enough to really be counted separately). Which, frankly, is a completely ridiculous amount.

Now, if you include the Bonds DLC :suicide:

This is why I don't blame them for not giving spotpass characters any supports.
