Dear god.

Chapter 10 was this unbelievable onslaught where you have to defend a port from three main paths. I thought I would eventually have to defeat the boss, but was just barely clinging on to surviving the waves of reinforcements.

....and then the chapter ended. Turns out it was a survive requirement. Thank JESUS.

3-13 archer mode activated?

 

[Raziek]

3-13 archer mode activated?

The chapter actually felt ABOUT THAT HARD. Maybe a little harder.

There aren't any NPCs to help you. There are only the aforementioned ballistae+magic ballistae and your own units. And it's like 10 turns defense or something.

And the enemies don't screw around. Huge variety. Ninjas that debuff you, Lance users, Axe users, Pegs, Archers, the works. Only lacking in Sword users and magic. So freaking hard to deal with. Getting hit by a ninja will take an otherwise crazy durable unit into dangerously low levels of defense.

Haaaaah. That's probably the most refreshingly difficult Fire Emblem level I've played in a LONG long time. That was practically nirvana. I feel so satisfied. Because it was SO HARD, but not QUITE hard enough that it felt like it was just bull****. It felt like I had all the tools to deal with it, as long as I played it smart.

Guys, this is the game we've been waiting for.

Yay. Now the "hardcore" Fire Emblem fans will (hopefully) stop complaining about weebola.

Yeah, now they can complain about everything else!

That's hurtful. I don't see the need to attack older fans just because Awakening wasn't what we hoped for. I don't dislike the game by any means but it certainly wasn't what I had come to expect from Fire Emblem. There's no need to mock us, though, is there?

I was assuming "hardcore" (+quotes) meant the kind of people who complain at every little thing that's different from their perspective of the "perfect" Fire Emblem game and think that all the casuals from Awakening are ruining the franchise. Basically, I was referring to the caricature.

 

[Kenith]

Hmm...between the game actually having variety and a werewolf girl I am sold on Nohr.

Someone explain this 3-13 archer thing to me. I'm aware it comes from the last Daein chapter in part 3 of Radiant Dawn but otherwise idgi

TL;DR:

He goes in on a number of the enemy units that spawn during the chapter.

(Read: Kills a number of them).

Sshh I'm on Part 3 Chapter 10 don't say squat to me.

The irony of this statement is that your title is NO SYMPATHY ALLOWED.

Thus, [title] between fan bases.

If there's one thing the fandom can be universally behind on the NoA localization changes, it's that support.

And that's one more than the first one had :x It's not the final roster though, there's more to come, so there's still hope

It's more like Assist trophies, they can be used once a battle, but you can use them every battle, so

LOL, don't buy it just for them. They don't serve a big place in the plot, and they're really only there because fans were super angry/disappointed they weren't in the first

 

[Kotor]

I concur.

Soleil and Femui's supports are nothing like Mamui's. Besides flirting with other girls she finds cute, Soleil has issues with her dancing. So, if none of her other supports focus on her dancing, give it to Mamui.

I would have taken anyone over Natsu or any of the new SCV characters though. Why not, like, Mitsurugi or Ivy or something?
Game doesn't interest me anyway, though. I just wish Namco cared enough to Soulcalibur to represent it well.

If it follows the scheme of the first one, every pair of fighters had a solo unit to pair up with that was considered "canon" minus Ryu and Ken. Since Natsu is in it more than likely confirms a Soulcalibur pair of fighter to go with Natsu. Unless they for some reason change it this game, which I doubt

Am I the only one that doesn't have a problem with the supposedly controversial Soleil support?

I haven't read the text directly but I've heard about it and it doesn't sound awful.

[collapse=About the support]
I mean if she [Soleil] consents to take this drug that makes all the guys seem like girls, you can't call Kamui a Date Rapist. :|

I still want to give Kamui the benefit of the doubt (i.e. that's he's not a date rapist) although

She didn't know about it until it's effects were on her already. Even if she liked it later(and I'll admit, I chuckled at her wanting to see the other guys as girls. Who wouldn't?), doesn't exactly mean that it was right of him to slip it in without her knowing, even if it was for good intentions. If he directly went to her and got her to try it out, it might have been a different story.

How did this not make the cut for a potential yuri s-support, this was really cute--

Oh well :^(

With all the controversy I'm seeing in other parts of the internet, I think it would better to just stop discussing the supports here. There are more important manners to discuss...

I was under the impression that specific solo units were tied to each character team and that some of them were tied to unrelated characters (like Natsu).

Yeah pretty much.

While Kamui is just trying to help, the way he goes about it is very sketchy.

What kind of game store (and witchcraft) is this?

 

[Milo AKA Papa]

Nah. Kind of like assist trophies again, solo units can be places with any character pair. She's shown with Strider and Hotsuma in the trailer, but inbetween battles you could easily put her with Ryu and Ken, Phoenix Wright and Maya, X and Zero, etc

 

[Zensor]

Blasphemy, am I right!? They've just done an entire re-stock of the older waves in GAME stores in the UK. There were other rare ones such as Little Mac, Marth, Ike and Charizard but I don't have enough, even though they were normal price.
