    Yet another Fates opinion

    Posted: 10 Feb 2021 02:55 PM PST

    I've been playing Birthright recently as a bit of a nostalgia trip (it was the first FE I ever beat) and it's become a game I really like, but can't justify why. I don't think it's maps are as bad as some people say, but it's mission design is horribly lacking in variety and its cast is very unmemorable. Its story, while not terrible like Conquest and Revelations, still only reaches the level of "acceptable". It really is the most basic of FE plots (besides the very first game).

    I think it's this level of mediocrity in most things, however, that ironically makes me enjoy it so much. Because there's nothing noticeably bad about it, there's nothing to distract me from the elements I really do love. For example, I love the refinements it made to Awakening's pair up system, and the My Castle is strangely addictive to me. I also love the traditional Japanese theming the Hoshidan side has compared to the Medieval European stylings of Nohr. I also think that it does the best job out of all three routes of capitalizing on the tragedy of Corrin having to choose between two families (although it still doesn't reach the highest potential of that idea, their are some parts I like, like the confrontation with Leo or Xander accidentally killing Elise, but having him be so far gone in his drive to fight for Nohr that even that doesn't stop him from attacking Corrin. I think some people don't like that Elise's death doesn't wake Xander from his mistakes, but I always thought it was to show just how far gone he is in believing he has to fulfill his duty to Nohr).

    Revelation Redux Tier List Round 3: Subaki, Kaze, Rinkah and Hayato. Plus Gunter Tie Breaker

    Posted: 10 Feb 2021 12:46 PM PST

    Welcome to Round 3: Subaki, Kaze, Rinkah and Hayato. Plus Gunter Tie Breaker

    Each round will last about 24 hours in between each other. Rate the units in each tier, and give clear explanations on why. Feel free to comment on each other and discuss why you agree or disagree. Be polite, and remember, this is all in good fun. After the 24 hours, I will review all the answers and understand what the consensus reached has been, posting the result in the next round. If there is no clear majority, a tally will be made. If a tie ensues, well the round will be extended until a tiebreaker comment appears. At the very end, a hub finalized tier list will be created, with links to each and every one of these rounds, providing full analyses for Revelation units as well as a good solid tier list for the community.

    Preliminary Round

    The results from the last round are Mozu E, Sakura B and Hana E. Gunter got a tie with 4 votes in A and B tier so today we will be voting for Gunter again in either A or B tier for the tie breaker. So vote for either A or B for Gunter along with the rest of the units in todays round.

    We will also be tiering Scarlet since the results from yesterdays round came in with more yes votes.

    The Major Four Rules of Thumb When Judging a Unit:

    • How does the unit start, whether considering base value or join map?

    • To what extent will the unit need training or investment to meet a return?

    • To what extent does the return profit, meet at equilibrium, or fall below input?

    • What does a unit contribute? As in, what niches or value do they hold?

    Without Further Ado, let's begin

    Tiers Being Used:

    Fantastic Performance: S Almost always very useful, with very few to no flaws. Makes significant contributions that can't really be ignored. They may also provide a valuable niche, or just perform what they do the best.

    Includes: Corrin, Azura

    Great Performance: A Very useful alotta the time, with a couple minor detriments that don't really hold them back. They may fill a good niche or perform what they do splendidly.

    Includes: Jakob 1

    Good Performance: B Pretty useful, with some minor detriments that hold them back somewhat. They may fill a niche, but someone might do it better, and they can perform well if given the opportunity.

    Includes: Sakura

    AOK Performance: C Can be useful, with detriments that hold them back. They might fill a niche, even if its not useful, and they can perform decently if given the investment.

    Includes: Felicia 1

    Iffy Performance: D Not all that useful, with possible major detriments holding them back. They do not fill any required niches and take more investing than most to perform adequately or not all that solidly.

    At this point, units are no longer recommended by the list.

    Lame Performance: E They absolutely suck. Do to how Revelation works literally anyone is workable. They do not fill any required niches and take far more investing than most to perform adequately or not all that solidly, or just piss poor.

    Includes: Mozu, Hana

    Meme Performance: F Rank *Hahahaha... man. These guys don't perform worth a damn. They offer nothing that others can't do better, and getting them to the point where they can start contributing requires a mountain of time, resources, and luck. Bottom of the barrel.

    What's the longest you've spent on a single map?

    Posted: 10 Feb 2021 09:04 AM PST

    For me I just did the final map in SoV echos, which took exactly 3 hours. A close second would be the final map of crimson flower on maddening, which took me 2 hours and 45 minutes.

    "What If?" Wednesday, Chapter 27: Shot Through the Heart, and Takumi's to Blame

    Posted: 10 Feb 2021 12:50 PM PST

    Chapter 26

    It's February, and love is in the air. Well, amidst the snow, rain, and all sorts of wind. Honestly, I can't even commit to this bit - it's beautiful outside where I am. In any case, welcome back to "What If?" Wednesday! While I regret missing last week's offering (I just plum forgot!), I thought this week could capitalize off of an impending holiday. That's right, the one that reminds me of my own incapacity to establish meaningful emotional connections with others - Valentine's Day! We all know that Vamlumtime's is serious times - but how to connect it to the world of Fire Emblem? Well...

    Fire Emblem is a series about warfare, politics, and the connections forged therein. So naturally, love is a part of the equation, as comrades-in-arms become closer still. While some games feature canon pairings (ie. Alm and Celica in Gaiden, Marth and Caeda in every game where they coexist), others allow you to create your own pairings, through a love or support system. It can be painstaking work, making sure that certain units pair up preferentially, or stand next to each other for long enough, in order to warm enough to grow further in their relationship. In the worst cases (that is, 90% of the GBA supports), you're implicitly encouraged to mash "end turn" before finishing out a given map, or else you forsake achieving the coveted A/S tier.

    But what if that were not the case? What if it were possible to use an item that, in a moment, maximizes the support level between a pair of units? Let's call it "Cupid's Arrow" (not to be confused with Fates' own "Cupid's Bow"), and suppose that you get one at the start of the game (consumed upon use). A unit can "Use" it, selecting an ally two spaces away (it is, after all, an arrow), and instantly achieve the highest possible support with that unit. Note that this item would not be able to facilitate relationships that aren't already possible in the main game - sorry, Scarlet and Ryoma, you still can't get together! On the flip side, despite its suggestive origins, it need not be limited to romantic pairings - Cupid's Arrow can work for platonic supports, or even antagonistic ones (thanks, Matthew x Jaffar). How would you use such an item? Would you like to see something like Cupid's Arrow make an appearance; or, do you prefer the tasks be left to weaker items like the Seed of Trust; or, would you prefer supports be built without the aid of items? Am I not giving due consideration to the moral dilemma posed by making someone fall in love with you through shooting them? Let me know in the comments!
