Hello!

 

I've known about this forum for a very long time but I never frequented it and I never made an account until now.

 

My story with Fire Emblem started in 2010 when I gave Shadow Dragon a try. I thought it was ok but it didn't keep my interest for long.

 

It wasn't until early 2014 when I gave Blazing Sword a try that I really got into the series but I have yet to actually finish Blazing Sword since I started playing a bunch of games around that time and eventually got a huge backlog as a result. I have however finished Sacred Stones, Path of Radiance, Radiant Dawn and Awakening. Radiant Dawn is my favorite installment. I also have a copy of Conquest that I bought on a whim two months ago but I haven't really been playing it lately.

 

I don't think I'll be that active on this forum but I will probably check it out sometimes.

 

I actually forgot that this site existed until a certain someone told me about it last year. You know who you are.

All I've got to say is "Phi!".  The Zero Escape fanboy in me demands that I keep gushing how happy I am that someone else loves that game.

I'm currently playing Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 (PS2 Version) both of which I went back to recently after having them on hold for forever. I might play Blazing Sword again after I'm done with those two but that will take ages.

 

Yeah, it was pretty random. This site came to mind yesterday, so I made an account because why not.

 

A Serenes Forest member by the name of Euklyd made a group Smash chat on Skype in 2014. That's where I met you. We really only talked once or twice and played a few matches at first and didn't start talking to each other much until late 2015/early 2016, if I recall correctly.

Yeah, I like Zero Escape. Zero Time Dilemma was...ok at best, but 999 and Virtue's Last Reward are prettty good! I played all three of them last year.

Zero Time Dilemma was exhausting at times for sure.  I'm just glad it exists at all given that I've been on this ride since the start and there was a 4 year gap where we were told that there was no funding for a sequel to Virtue's Last Reward.

 

I'll take all the good that came out of the game and throw away the fact that the game kind of ended poorly...it's the sequel I gave up hope on ever seeing.  Whether or not it was good at points or has any replay value is pretty irrelevant for me as I finally got to see it through.

ahhh your memory is scary, I thought it might have been that but I really didn't want to delve into the details, especially when my memory was fuzzy and not scarily detailed like yours, lol

 

I'm still kind of curious why we started talking though, oh well

I like that attitude/I feel and respect that haha, like a recent example would be, I gave up home on ever seeing a decent Fire Emblem game ever again, so even though Echoes is "weird" (different) and certainly has various flaws and weakpoints, I didn't really care that much and don't feel like criticizing it because it's decent and made me happy to play FE again, so that would have been kind of a crappy, ungrateful attitude to have IMO when the series could have just kept being trash in my mind and never had a good (imo) FE game again, lol

 

(that being said I 99% expect the new Switch FE to be bad since it's almost certainly not a remake and thus has more potential for terribleness IMO, lol)

I'm kind of glad that I didn't play Virtue's Last Reward until last year because that ending would have annoyed me if I saw it at a time when there was no sequel in sight.
 
The cinematic style and panning camera they went with made sitting through Zero Time Dilemma pretty boring at times. The character animations aren't that great due to the visibly low budget which leads to the characters not moving much, so I wonder why they went with this when they could have gone visual novel like the first two games. I'm guessing they wanted to appeal to the American fans since Zero Escape is liked more in America than in Japan.
 
I don't remember all the things I had a problem with in the story because it has been a long time. Two things I recall not liking are Junpei's and Akane's characterization. Junpei's

Spoiler

 

As for Akane. I disliked her flanderization and

The game's ending was unsatisfying and disappointing. I can see myself replaying 999 and Virtue's Last Reward but not Zero Time Dilemma.

My memory isn't really as good as you think. Yours must be very bad.

hey, I readily admit my memory isn't that great, but I'm still offended by that, it's not that bad

 

and it's definitely a little odd to remember random stuff like that in detail

 

I mean idk, I meet so many people, I can't remember where or how I've met all of them, lolol
