One of the top Melee players in the state goes to his first PM tournament since 3.5 came out and actually seems to be taking interest in it.

Holy ****, why did that take so long.

My Smash scene is weird :/

 

[Lizalfos]

idk about you but your streamer could suck significantly less by deinterlacing the game video.

I'm subbed to a guy on YouTube that makes PM vids and I explain how to de interlace on every one of them.

 

[Bleck]

buncha weebs tryna pretend like it's not that the only reason they play fire emblem games is to make their waifus marry people

Seriously, though, changing/removing weapon durability doesn't really matter at all.

 

[Helsong]

I missed two pages or something. I'm just gonna assume it was talking about vidya games, FE's new casualification, waifus, ******** about not being able to say swear words, and anime.

So: What is up with this new mode in FE? Revived next turn? I'm seriously hoping they balance the game around playing the game as standard permadeath, and not around the Phoenix mode, cuz otherwise it's going to be a pretty irritating game to play.
Removing weapon usage limits is ok, so long as they explicitly balance around it, which I expect them to. Lessening micromanagement can actually be a good thing, although I never at any point found weapon durability to be a hard mechanic to deal with. I could see them limiting the amount of weapons you get, making buying new weapons prohibitively expensive, etc.
Also, I have no idea why one would do anything but Nohr(save story purposes), given that we've heard that the Nohr path will have more varied goals for each chapter and more interesting battles overall. Hoshido is supposed to be the easier and simpler one plus grinding too, right? I'm being incredibly elitist here, but I feel like story should be the reward for progressing and incentive for going further, not something handed to the player easily. Why bother playing a game at that point? Why not read the thousands of books that have far better writing?
I'm a bit more concerned about how these new changes to appeal more to the casual audience will affect the series going forward, though, hopefully they retain options that will appeal more to FE vets.

probably not overall, no. it kinda removes the resource management aspect from the harder difficulties though.

the obvious answer is that technology has improved at making better weapons.

 

[MechWarriorNY]

Did somebody say cookies?!

Re: weapon durability salt - Who says it won't stay there for Lunatic mode/etc? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

buncha weebs tryna pretend like it's not that the only reason they play fire emblem games is to make their waifus marry people

Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course.

 

[MLGF]

You're an idiot if you think that item management isn't important.

It's the tool that makes iron's and steels hold utility. It adds depth to preparing for games, and it adds extreme utility to infinite weapons due to how much of an advantage those tools add (Chrom's early game iron sword where most units used bronze is amazing, as is Lucina's silver). Making a whole game off these weapons ruins how amazing irons and steels are. Their high usage and low price vs silver's non high usage absolutely made them viable in the late game. It's a balance that even non grind runs of Awakening hold rather well, and to remove that while keeping the classic weapon system ruins a lot.

The other issue is that the legendary weapons / braves that give you bonus stats and have insane utility are balanced by usage. You only need to play FE4 and witness its repair system once to realize how horrible legendary weapons are. Characters who can use them are exponentially the best characters in the game, and pairings are based around how to get broken weapon no. 2 in the run the quickest. Thanks to the repair system, it's never a worry. Seriously, look at great weapons in FE4. Sigurd's Silver Sword is part of the reason he solo's, and there's no reason to not use brave weapons over other weapons in FE4, Ares immediately becomes the best character in Gen 2 because of his sword, and Ike getting the only 1~2 range sword halfway through part 3 in FE10 ends up putting him so ahead of the curve. The weapons make characters easy to use and manage in game, which lets them grow better, which makes them easier to use and it just ends up a freaking loop of insanely unbalanced units.

Look on the other hand. FE5 has tons of insane weapons that are character locked, but the utility of them is limited, even if Brave Lance has 60 uses and comes in chapter 1, it's still limited. It stops players from becoming reliant on tools and forces them to better manage items. You see this with the Pugi, the Brave Weapons, Dragon Lance, Light Sword. Their utility is amazing, but it forces you to think carefully about when they're most needed. And that game had extensive uses on exclusive weapons, like 60 or something.

Item Management is mad important in FE, to take it away means to rework the entire ****ing system to improve balance. If they don't, the whole thing is gonna end up a bigger braindead farce then Lolwakening.

I don't hate change.
I hate bad design. FE's weapon system does not compliment infinite use. I could take it if it was a thing exclusive to casual mode, but infinite uses and FE have never complimented the games balance.

FE4 proves my point.

You're an idiot if you think that

stopped reading here and so should everybody else

[Comeback Kid]

So nobody mentions what is so cool about the new Fire Emblem:

Royal characters will be able to use the “Dragon Pulse” to make various changes on the battlefield. Whether its raising a bridge, causing an earthquake, or flattening mountains, there are various changes you can make to the map.

Which is actually really fun and adds variety, but instead people get pissed about system changes sight unseen.

Nerfed Pair Up already makes this a better game.

[Saito]

God damn I love sound effects
It never fails that I just don't have as much interest in a game when its sounds are off.

That being said, I'm in a situation where I can't have sound on this computer. I do have music playing on some speakers, and while the music is good, without the sounds it's just not nearly as fun or compelling.

Well, at least I won't feel bad spamming the jaegan's silver lance in the new game's lunatic mode :333

 

[mimgrim]

I'm still excited for IF and its obviously doing some stuff right/fixing the stuff from Awakening (Nohr in general, the changes to Pair Up, and a few other things).

But I'm not convinced the change to weapon durability is going to a step in the right direction unless there is a major re-haul to the current system. In the curren system, however, there is a lot that could go wrong with infinite durability.

He's not wrong.

As if you are being any more mature.

 

[MechWarriorNY]

You're darn right I'm not acting serious, being an adult is wack anyway.

This is all I'm gathering from the FE discussion. You simply cannot make solid judgement without knowing what other things they are changing. "Item management is gonna be garbo now!" Maybe they'll add another thing that forces you to consider strategy like unit morale or bring back that weird wavey thing from RD and make it work. They might even just make weapon forging weaker and give less opportunities for stronger weapons or make them more expensive.

I can agree that renown was a big ol' poop and Pair Up needed a nerf. I'm also excited for CO Powers from Advance Wars being in, though. Hopefully it'll increase the amount of terrain awareness you'll need.

there's no reason to assume that they're not going to change things to fit the other changes they're going to make beyond having a reason to complain about nothing

if you go back and make your weapons have infinite durability in the old games, it'd be pretty unbalanced - and that doesn't matter, 'cause this new game isn't one of the old games

also yeah everything @ GigasOverlord said

Have you met yourself?

hey actually yeah as long as you're confronting me about this I'd like to apologize about the way I acted towards you way back when you first ignored me, I was being judgmental and quarrelsome for no reason and it was dumb

Until it's confirmed that there's some massive overhaul on how powerful weapons are/what the costs to get them are/the difference in power from one to another, I'm only going to assume the worst. And while that may or may not be what they have planned, it's still bad in theory. And it doesn't seem impossible that they would do it either, considering Arms Thrift was 2x Luck stat and luck stat could usually be near or above 50 caps on the characters that mattered-- because we all know we're grinding for everything, right? I have hopes that it doesn't end up being stupid, but I also have my doubts.

[Helsong]

Ur all big poopyheads.

But @ GigasOverlord has a good point, we don't know how these changes will all work together, we're only seeing them in a vacuum at this point, which isn't very enlightening. But, this does seem to indicate a trend towards an easier game overall, or at the very least one where certain complexities are removed. It's less They Changed It, Now It Sucks and more that these changes are indicative of a trend in FE that might go somewhere that a lot of the fanbase doesn't want it to go. Simply saying that those who are complaining are doing so for the sake of complaining or that they're lashing out against change doesn't do justice a lot of the insecurities and misgivings of a large portion of the FE fandom.
