    (text lifted from FEU post)

    Introduction

    Hello all! We are excited to announce FEE3 2021, the 11th year of FEE3. FEE3 is a romhacking and fangame event where we will show off what we've been building over the course of the calendar year. It's an exciting time to share progress with your fellow creators and FE romhack enthusiasts.

    Overview

    This year, we have 80 projects to show over 20 days, starting on 23-Oct at 12 AM Eastern Time ending on 11-Nov at 6 PM Eastern Time. Like last year, we will be releasing videos every 6 hours, starting at midnight (12 AM) Eastern Time on Day 1. They will be available on the FEUniverse channel and collated into a playlist throughout the event's 3 week duration. Each video will still be viewable after they are shared, so don't worry if you miss it when they first drop! You can always catch up after the event.

    Charity

    As a Fire Emblem hacking and fangame community, it's exciting to see so many of us rally around the event and show off what they've been working on. It is a rare, special thing, and I look forward to learning from and enjoying each of the projects that will be shown this year.

    We know that the past year has been a challenge for all of us with COVID-19. For this year's charity, we've chosen Direct Relief, an organization that supports those impacted by the effects of COVID-19.

    Donations are not required, but we'd like to make a difference where we can.

    Why 1v1 duels in Fire Emblem don't work

    Posted: 23 Oct 2021 02:46 PM PDT

    FE is a series that is obviously very inspired by the manga and anime that' popular at the time the games are being made, which is why you get things like anime high school simulator in 3H. Most of the inspirations are relatively harmless and even charming (swordmasters crit animation being essentially "Nothing personell kid"), but one of the tropes FE takes that simply doesn't work for a strategy game like FE are the 1v1 duels. Now, I don't mean something like the game pushing the lords as they are the only ones that can kill the final boss, I mean something like Ike vs The Black Knight, both locked in a room, away from others and just duking it out.

    You know the ones. Two rivals who have been built up through the story must face off in a duel where one of them dies and the rivalry is put to an end. It's a very famous trope that you can see in almost anything, but the problem is that FE games also sometimes try to integrate it as well and it never works. This is mainly because a 1v1 duel is made for a fighting game or a character action game, but not a strategy game. FE is moresoe about finding a way to get past seemingly overwhelming odds at first where the enemy has the major advantage and you need to use strategy in order to achieve victory. A honorable duel is the opposite of this as it relies heavely on fairness and as such there isn't a proper way to make it work in an FE map. However, some games have decided to include them, so let's look at some rival battles in FE.

    Ike vs Black Knight 1

    This is probably the worst one. It's a real shame too as the story really builds up this rivalry, but the execution is so bad. Ike is very reliant on his gorwths so he can end up without good enough stats to fight the BK well, at least ocassionally. Another bad part is that the BK has huge stats, making him both really bulky and he also hits like a truck. As if that weren't enough you also get enemy reinforcements if you take too long which are an added annoyance. You do luckely have Mist, but I hope you trained her up as she won't be able to do much at base and will likely just die. As if all of that wasn't enough, the BK also has access to Luna which has a 30% chance to half Ike's defense, which will put him in critical condition or just end his life. And as if all of that wasn't bad enough there is still the other issue of even a trained Ike not being able to kill the BK in the short turn limit you are given, so you need to bank on skills such as Aether and Wrath to score the kill. Don't you just love how the ultimate test of skill between two warriors is entirely based on luck?

    And all of this would be somewhat forgivable if Ike dying in this fight didn't mean you didn't need to restart the entire chapter. Yes you heared me right. Not the fight itself, but the entire chapter that takes place before the fight. Just why? At least you're given the option to run away, but it feels so akward that you're just deciding to skip this awful fight. Anyway, the BK in PoR is probably the worst boss in the entire franchise, so let's not talk about i+him any more and move on to... The Black Knight again. OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

    Ike vs Black Knight 2

    OK, this one is much better. Ike is much stronger in this game, so it's unlikely Ike is gonna be helpless against the BK. There are tiles that boost your defense, there's also other things to do this map as you can also choose to fight other enemies and an optional bos to get the wishblade. Oh, and you don't need to play an entire seperate chapter if Ike dies.

    However, the fight itself is kind of a joke as Ike can just one round The Burger King with a hammer and even without it the fight isn't very interesting as you can outlast the BK fairly easely with defense tiles and some physic staff support.. It's fine overall and a clear improvement over Por, but still nothing very notable and honestly the fight on the other side of the wall is the more interesting one.

    Corrin vs Xander

    This entire chapter is just kind of a joke. Corrin is likely gonna vastly outclipse Xander's stats by this point and even if they don't it's so easy to get in the room where Xander and Corrin are locked that it's almost comical. Yes, the reason why Xander sucks is because he is essentially giving up on life, but that doesn't mean the entire chapter also needs to showcase Fates devs giving up and letting the interns put something together in an hour.

    Corrin vs Ryoma

    This one is probably the best one overall, even if that's not saying much. There's a neat debuffing and healing aura in the room which makes it easyer for even a bad Corrin to last as long as you aren't doing something like sniper Corrin, the Ryoma will wait patiently for his revenge is silly, but is a nice time limit. The real meat of the chapter is actually getting to the door and confronting Ryoma with other character as this chapter is well known for being absolute BS. Like, you haven't truly experienced fear unless you've had to face inevitable end ninjas. Trying to find a way to reach the other side of the map reliably is actually the most fun part f the chapter, because otherwise it's really lame. You can reclass Corrin before the chapter into something that's good against Ryoma and sit with Corrin near the wall and buff them with Rallyman or some other units and bank on a dragon fang crit to finish the map quickly, as it can honestly be kind of a chore.

    Conclusion

    Despite the admirable attempts to make it work, they are all quite flawed in the end. This is mostly because the condition is alway kill the boss and it's too easy to exploit. With something like the final chapter of FE2 or 3, despite only Marth and Alm being able to kill the final boss, the maps are still maps and you more than likely have anough ways to make the final fight doable, the final fight is usually just the victory lap and not the center piece. However, it's the opposite for rival battles as it's all about the fight itself, while the maps which feature said fight are meant to be secondary.

    However, there may be a way to fix this. Let's imagine for a second that Corrin in the Ryoma chapter is a green unit and that they aren't equipped to deal with Ryoma. Now, it suddenlly turns into a rush to save Corrin before Ryoma dines on dragon soup. As such, the bestt way to make a rival chapter is to not make the rivals playable characters, as it gives a chapter more strategic value and challenge besides, oh I hope you have good enough stats and get lucky with skill procs. Maybe even have the green unit be arrgant to that point, but after they realise they would've died without helo they become humbled and join the army as a blue unit. However, this is obviously never gonna happen in FE as IS is insistent on these battles between rivals including the main playable character as the center piece for better or worse (mostly for worse) and as such I can't really find a way to make these maps work. However, if you have any ideas feel free to write them in the comments.

    Alm is very well written

    Posted: 23 Oct 2021 10:09 AM PDT

    I discussed with my friends on my podcast PSI Gaming about the best Main characters in video games and I had to say Alm. Alm is very humanized and relatable in Fire Emblem Echoes Shadows of Valentia. His dedication to Celica and his leadership is not always perfect but he works hard at both of them. I really respect Alm and he's my favorite Fire Emblem lord! Anyone else really like Alm?

    Zihark! Can never decide between using him or Mia in PoR, so I always use both.

    Who's the lord that you dislike the most and like the most gameplay wise?

    Posted: 23 Oct 2021 07:42 PM PDT

    For me, it was definitely FE11 Marth, his stats were mediocre, his lack of promotion made him a lame duck and he would die all the time. He died way too often for everything! I found him so worthless that I consistently used anyone else to kill medeus, namely Tiki or Abel with Gravidus. He felt like a HUUUUGE drag on every single one of my playthroughs, he made Roy look like a Master Lord (yes, bad joke intended)

    I'm not a fan of Ike but in FE9, he was easily my most reliable unit. I can put him in the middle of a battlefield and he would actively dodge and double everyone. It came to the point where if I wanted him to die. I had unselect everyone and hope he dies, but he's so fast and powerful that he plows through everyone! I wanted to kill ashnard with tibarn so I wanted to soften him with Ike, well 2 withers later, ashnard dies.

    I could technically say Chrom "was the best lord" , but every unit in awakening was basically a super-unit with their monstrous growths so I just used him "just cause", but I could have easily won the game without him.

    (FE3H) Should I recruit Sylvain for Black Eagles?

    Posted: 23 Oct 2021 05:56 PM PDT

    Planning to go Crimson Flower on my 3rd run and my first time playing as female byleth. I heard you get Sylvain as an easy free recruit through playing as f-byleth, but he will likely be playing a duplicate role either way(Hubert as DK and Ferdinand as Paladin or GK if I want to invest in the latter)

    Is Sylvain worth recruiting for Lance Of Ruin alone?

    How to build a Fire Emblem world?

    Posted: 23 Oct 2021 07:46 PM PDT

    So I ran into a unique problem recently. My friends and I thought it'd be cool to run a D&D campaign based off of the Fire Emblem universe. I agreed to DM, so I sat down and began brainstorming. Almost immediately, I hit a wall. I wanted the world to be unique, to give them a story that is completely different from other games in the franchise (since a good portion of them played most), yet retain that Fire Emblem identity.

    So, my question to y'all—what makes a Fire Emblem world? What are the fundamentals of each world that gives Fire Emblem its identity despite its drastically different setting every other game?

    What if the Fire Emblem games came to the West in the 90s?

    Just a thought on my mind recently and I would like to hear what other people would think what would've happened if it did.

    Were there any moments where Fire Emblem got real? If so, can you name one? (Spoiler Warning)

    Posted: 23 Oct 2021 06:18 PM PDT

    So what exactly is the fire emblem?

    Posted: 23 Oct 2021 07:59 PM PDT

    It seems to be a very loose concept, applying to many different objects of power throughout the series, but are there any specifics on what it is and what all the fire emblems have in common? I know that not all fire emblem games take place within the same universe so they don't explicitly need to be related but it's just odd to me that the namesake of the whole series is only ever really mentioned in passing outside of a few games.

    Like in FE7 it's as far as we know, just a rock/crest/something. Literally its only confirmed value is a social one.
