*gasp* My other half! Was beginning to wonder if you'd ever return.

Shout-outs again to @Pikachewy99 for the amazing art.

Aw, that's so cute! @Pikachewy99 did an amazing work indeed!
Pikachewy is the best Ringabel ever.
I love Ringabel.

 

[Wintropy]

I don't think we'll even know the results of the ballot on October 3rd.

We're gonna have to wait.

It's gonna be interesting.

Oy vey.

 

[Mr. Johan]

Part 1 of RD's done, yay. Spent time grinding Tormod since he won't be available to much later and I love routing 4-4 with him, so now he's an Arch Sage. Then I spend the endgame raising Ilyana up, and she's now a Level 16 Thunder Sage. And she capped Strength and Defense again, obvs.

Currently in Part 2, Chapter 4. No one's hitting the Royal Knights and its hilarious.

Spoiler: KIU spoilers

Turns out I'm the only one who doesn't like Viridi very much.
I mean as far as video game characters goes, she's fine, but this KIU where everyone is a well written character so she's comparatively not that good.
My biggest gripe about her is that she really doesn't grow as a character. She appears bringing some big questions about humanity (why should humans be allowed to harm nature without repercussion? What makes fighting humans so different from killing monsters ect.) but those are answered so weakly that it's just sad. Not only that but her arrogance and willful ignorance is so frustrating. She refuses to accept that she is, even in the smallest of way, responsible for some of the terrible things that are happening to her world. I want to reiterate that I don't hate Viridi, in fact she amazing when she's being used properly (i.e as a foil to Palutena) the whole Chaos Kin arc was made infinitely better because she was there and Palutena's Guidance is more hilarious with her around but to be honest I mostly remember her for the serious moral dilemmas she tried and failed miserably to get me to understand

 

[Mr. Johan]

KIU was intentionally written to resemble Saturday Morning cartoons. The attempts at character development and cohesive plot were gonna be **** anyway.

 

[Nah]

I can already imagine the possible absolute rages the announcement of the ballot character will bring....

This drove me crazy.

Sucks that I gave up on this game at the chapter right before he finally gets promoted.

Was just playing Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones for the first time, and lost the girl with dark magic. Gods, her death quote hit me in the feels:

"I... don't want to die..."

So simple, but so effective. In Awakening, Libra's special death quote got me too.

No-! Oh Gods. Finish what I have started... Save... her..."

Robin's does too, especially in crucial moments like the final stage. Anyone else remember some notable death-quotes? A lot of them are genuinly sad from the looks of it

Sacred Stones is the most grim of the pre-Awakening games, I'd say. I actually stopped playing it in the middle during my first time because everything in the game was so dark and gloomy.

Well, it's one of FE most interesting trait, imo.
In most tactical games in which perma death is a thing, you won't care if you lose some units because it's easy to replace them, considering the only units you can actually lose in these games are generic ones.
In FE not only it's difficult to replace units in general, you also get to know each character rather well in the supports. It makes them unique (the fact that everyone gets a unique portrait helps too), which makes seeing them die because of bad planning painful. These units aren't expendable like in most games.

Either way, the death that got me the most was Neimi's.

“You were right, Colm... I am a klutz. Sorry...”

How do you even grind in Radiant Dawn?

edit: oh hey i claimed a page lol

By doing a bunch of 'tricks'.
You gain exp by hitting stuff, so you can for example pick an unit that can't one hit KO another and let enemy's priests heal. Needs some planning though.
I remember that I grinded Fiona via a statue trick on one of the last maps.
There's a bunch of maps in which the enemy has a lot of reinforcements. Careful planning on who gets the hits/kills can help on that.

A lot of those need careful planning, a bunch of weapons and time, though.
I remember I spend more than 100 turns to grind Fiona gg.

Fiona

why

 

[Elezir]

why

Don't ask.
Curiosity killed the cat.

There's a reason I stopped giving late newcomers a chance after this fiasco.

Honestly, she wasn't terrible by endgame, but nothing that excused the pain I went through to make her useful.

Fiona and Meg were the only two units pre-Awakening that capped all of their stats for me. All of them.

Don't underestimate the loads. :V

Death quotes have to be like this. They should make you restart even the harder of the chapters just to save an unit.
“After all... the only true prediction I made was this one. I'm sorry, Marcia... I was...a poor...brother...”
—Makalov's death quote in Path of Radiance.
“I knew this would be how...the dice would fall... Forgive me, Marcia... I'm...such a bad...brother...”
—Makalov's death quote in Radiant Dawn.
“Ike, I am sorry. I can fight no more. To Gallia... Must return...”
—Mordecai's death quote in Path of Radiance.
“The world... It grows... so...dark...”
—Nephenee's death quote in Path of Radiance.
“...It's darker than a prairie night... Why can't I...see...anything...?
—Nephenee's death quote in Radiant Dawn.
These hurt my poor little heart...

Today I reveal what is in this chest.

No sacred relic or treasure. Nothing of a day long ago. No riches, no coin.

Rather, within this chest is something else... @Weeman's innocence. Forseeing the corruption of @Weeman in prophecy, I have seen to securing @Weeman's innocence in its most purest form. To open this chest would envelop the world in a blinding light, most beautiful and pure... luminescence beyond your wildest dreams.

I will see that this is planted in a sacred grove, uncontaminated by sin. Over time, it will grow. Grow into a tree that will reach the highest heavens and pierce the pall of shadow that will one day swallow this world whole. There is no hope for @Weeman now. Every time he is sent to the shadow realm he only returns, stronger than what we could have ever imagined. If I cannot see to today, I can see to tomorrow... And should I fall, ThunderSageNun will see my mission's success.

 

[Devil May Plop]

The play is in a few hours and I'm terrified...
Someone help plz...

 

[FalKoopa]

why

I remember she was so weak the enemies in the chapter she debuted in could kill her. Yeah no, lol.

 

[Nah]

It's kinda sad how bad Fiona is really. Dawn Brigade desperately needs good units (or good units that don't require a lot of time and effort to be good anyway) and then they just drop this awful unit on you somewhat late in Part 1....
