And it ended up just being Shin Megami Tensei in Persona clothes with some weirdly deformed Fire Emblem characters? My most hope for port is Tokyo Mirage Sessions.

TheLeon Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Hmm, I was trying to avoid this game, because I don’t really need to be spending $60 on a game now, and I don’t think I’ve come close to actually finishing any of the other Fire Emblem games. There’s a good chance I end up buying this over the weekend. Shit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaku3 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Damn my local game store broke the release date. They tend to charge 10 dollars more for the privilege and I'd pay it but FE represents the last 20% Prime discount I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 Whatever you guys do, don't read Kotaku/IGN's reviews. There's reports of spoilers within those articles. Of course, Kotaku author being a total cunt and laughing about how she feels justified for it not being a spoiler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaku3 Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 God i wish nintendo had a refund policy like steam. I would have bought the game and refunded once I got my copy in. I kinda wish I could pay more for say a guaranteed before 10am delivery from amazon. I usually get my packages at like 5-6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 So I played the first battle. Felt like fire emblem. I guess the game won't introduce weapon trinity till later on? I've only played Awakening so I don't know if this will change later but I really liked the main character in that game a lot more. Using that tome and just dominating with magic spells. - Also no Avatar editor, lame! However some other aspects leave something to be desire, at least in handheld, maybe this game looks better on the TV but the aliasing looks really bad, it's like Japanese devs forgot to implement AA in their game first bloodstained and now this. The game shimmers so much it makes the pacific ocean jealous. Also, trigger warning for people who played Dead Rising but the text size is so minuscule on some menus, am I going to have to bust out a magnifying glass to read some of the text? I hope they patch this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they patch this. Haven’t tried it in handheld mode. Looks good on my TV though. The graphics are sort of meh in the school/monastery but they are serviceable. The battle animations are top notch as is the amount of depth given to pre-battle preparations. Overall I’m digging it. It has this sort of Persona feel/vibe to it. Maybe that’s just me but the social aspect is pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercury33 Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 So the story cut scenes and the battles look awesome to me. But the entire student teacher concept seems mind numbingly boring. Like how much is actually playing the game and much is walking around talking to everyone and spending time in stat and item inventories?

I would say it's actually a pretty significant chunk of the game. You can skip through a lot of it, but it's still going to make you run around and do certain missions around the monastery, and you'll be missing out on stat and relationship bonuses if you don't involve yourself with it at all. I'm not sure what I would recommend. The combat is good, but it really is just a portion of the actual game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 A lot of people are comparing this to Persona. Is Persona a lot of running around ugly 3D environments with character animations that would make a Bethesda animator cringe? It's been like 2 hours and I've only fought one battle the rest of the time was doing stupid fishing and gardening stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a lot of giving you limited free time to choose how to spend it to develop relationships. And you can spend it in a variety of ways, like watching a movie or going out to eat with them. FE is explicitly taking ideas from it and implementing them in this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser_Soze Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I feel like the school theme is the most cliched Japanese thing out there, so played by now. I mean the beginning of the game was somewhat interesting, then it kinda went downhill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that is required of you during those sections is one “main” quest, which is typically talk to a person, o get a thing, come back to the person. Otherwise the bulk of the in between missions is teaching your students aka deciding what stats to level up as they progress toward a pretty wide array of special classes, ala FF tactics.

Xbob42 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Eh, sure why not. Not much going on right now game-wise anyway. Not exactly a challenge to talk me into this one. Bad animations are really a pet peeve of mine, though. Especially if the game ALSO has good animations. I suppose I'll live. Maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The battles are fun, which is what Fire Emblem is. So power past the school stuff you'll probably, maybe, enjoy it. I fought the second battle, I'm playing hard classic and didn't loose a unit.
