Not sure, I've got the latest one Awakening on the 3DS. Don't know if there's been one released since then
Right, I've played Radiant Dawn and Path of Radiance on Dolphin. I'm very fond of this type of game ever since Vandal Hearts and FF Tactics, but the plot is just egregious and infantile, and reminds me exactly why I shouldn't be playing games at my age.
You probably do, but just in case you don't know, Awakening has as Casual Mode that you can use where deaths aren't permanent and return for the next battle.
Yeah I saw that, but I chose to have them properly die because I had a feeling the game would be a but too easy otherwise. I'd probably just try to steamroll forward and either win or get destroyed and irritate myself as well as waste time. Figured having a bit of caution would be the best thing.
Yeah it's probably the best way to play it really.
I'm interested mainly cause I haven't picked up my switch in months and this looks like it could be good, but I'm not massively into tactical RPG's and supposedly these games are very difficult, and I have little time for games where I die a lot.
Already pre-ordered it.
This will be my first Fire Emblem game but from what I understand it has the usual perma death system but it also has a casual mode.
This one also has a turn rewind feature. So for a limited amount of times per level you can rewind back a few turns to do things differently. Also, while hard, Fire Emblem is usually not hard in an unfair way. It's just quite appealing to overextend sometimes, resulting in a unit being overwhelmed. If you're careful and plan ahead, you shouldn't have too much trouble.
Ignatz is awesome as a Bow Knight!
Hilda and Rafael are awesome tanks for the GD, also Lorenz is an awesome dark knight, Dimitri is very strong for BL too.
Was wondering if Hilda became a good tank. Is Rafael better with gauntlets or axes? Will take your advice on Lorenz, what is Leonie worth turning into??
I used him with gauntlets, honestly I feel like gauntlets are a bit OP.
Yeah I changed axes to gauntlets for Casper with BE and it was pretty game changing for him.
BE are okay, and they can definitely be a lot weaker depending on your decisions, which makes them the hardest route, GD possibly has the strongest roster, Lysithea is the best Mage imo and she was a constant in all my playthroughs, Marianne is a solid healer, and Lorenze as I said dark knight he can walk through mages and not get hurt while also having the ability to use magic on enemies with heavy armor and lances on other enemies, then there's the two tanks and Claude! Easily best archer in the game, they are definitely easiest route, and possibly best route to learn about the whole story.
I used her as a dancer and also Mortal Savant, she is an incredible unit.
Well I’m feeling pretty good about myself about beating a BE story arc then, absolutely adore using Edelgard. I can already tell that Lysithea is going to be ace and am hoping to turn Marianne into a mobile healer.BE are okay, and they can definitely be a lot weaker depending on your decisions, which makes them the hardest route, GD possibly has the strongest roster, Lysithea is the best Mage imo and she was a constant in all my playthroughs, Marianne is a solid healer, and Lorenze as I said dark knight he can walk through mages and not get hurt while also having the ability to use magic on enemies with heavy armor and lances on other enemies, then there's the two tanks and Claude!

Which ones did you play? Or rather which one is left?
I think the one you did was the shortest route
, pretty tough final battle though.Damn, I'm definitely switching to Hard on my next playthrough then because the game was incredibly easy for me with BEBE are okay, and they can definitely be a lot weaker depending on your decisions, which makes them the hardest route, GD possibly has the strongest roster, Lysithea is the best Mage imo and she was a constant in all my playthroughs, Marianne is a solid healer, and Lorenze as I said dark knight he can walk through mages and not get hurt while also having the ability to use magic on enemies with heavy armor and lances on other enemies, then there's the two tanks and Claude!

Edelgard, Petra, Casper are all insane melee and Bernie is a great archer. Dorothea is also a mint dancer/mage and Hubert was great as a dark bishop. Also my main was stupidly overpowered at the end, I think the biggest problem is how strong they make him/her because he always seems a level above the other characters and you can smash through entire battlefields with him.It was pretty short, but couldn’t pick the other route. But yeah that last mission was pretty tough.I think the one you did was the shortest route
I think the house leaders and their second in commands are pretty good but most of the other characters are very one dimensional. Still, when you have to write 30+ characters it's sort of understandable.
Yeah fair enough, and I play it for the combat anyway. The little talks just add a bit of flavor.
Damn, I'm definitely switching to Hard on my next playthrough then because the game was incredibly easy for me with BE
