#127921 bblues finally plays through FE Fates!

Posted by bblues on 17 August 2016 - 10:42 AM

Okay, stuff happened, couldn't keep it updated. As always.

Well, here's the reflection on it.

It was disappointing. Not bad - I'm sure it's great fun if you've never played one/played Awakening, but I just felt underwhelmed for much of the game.

The levels felt bland and straightforward, with the only occasional difficulty coming from AI shenanigans - which felt more like artificial attempts to make the game harder rather than actually bothering to make the level design better. No map felt 'epic', with most previous maps having at least one, and it never felt satisfying to play through. The weapon triangle additions/muddling and pair up system made the experience more of a clutter than it should have been, especially when adding in reusable stat debuffers like Shurikens and some of those staves (permanent halving of HP for the whole map? Really?).

I felt like it was a bad mod or beta, full of stuff that was left half done.

And the story...let's not go there. So poorly written, half asses, bland...I couldn't believe it. I might add more to this, but it's kinda depressing to think about.

I still haven't played it again, I don't think I want to play it again. I will not fork out for Birthright or Revelation, and I can't believe they thought it was justified to do it, having played this.


#127062 Which Route Are You Playing First?

Posted by bblues on 16 May 2016 - 08:36 PM

 

special edition execution is garbage

 

typical Nintendo bs amirite lol, why not just make people happy by letting them get what they want esp. when it involves spending more money

 

smh

 

moving on tho, Conquest is da best so that's a good decision

 

let me know what you think/feel free to discuss, not much srs discussion going on though then again idk, somehow it's kinda harder with the new games

Yeah, it's a bit of a joke. Still a little pissed with the dual nature of the games honestly - but it seems to be the way the video game economy is going - breaking whole games up into parts that they can nickel and dime you for.

 

Glad to hear it, I'll get round to playing both eventually though.

 

And yeah, will do :)




#127040 Which Route Are You Playing First?

Posted by bblues on 15 May 2016 - 08:42 PM

Conquest, because a friend is playing Birthright and we're super late Euros and there's no special edition on Amazon and the Nintendo one is £114 (an utter waste).

#124985 How many Facebook/social networking "friends" do you have?

Posted by bblues on 18 December 2015 - 12:14 AM

133.

 

Some are family, then it's old schoolmates, current/past uni friends, one or two from work. I do very little adding, I mostly end up with requests from said people.

#121641 3 Tales Games: The Worst to the Best?

Posted by bblues on 05 May 2015 - 10:04 AM

Graces f > Xillia > Hearts R (not played)

 

Graces f is probably the most fun to play, it's bright and cheery, flashy, and it's got a great cast of characters that keeps the game light and entertaining. I'd say the battle and title system are the best of the ones I've played. The story line is either enjoyable or tacky depending on your outlook, but it's a great game.

 

Xillia is more muted by comparison. The battle system is fun, yes, but it's a bit dull and repetitive after a while given that you find yourself going back to the same shit every time. The story split wasn't as impressive as it could've been, and on the whole the story feels weak at times. The characters are good, though, although one or two may get on people's nerves.




#121384 What Fire Emblem Games do you actually own?

Posted by bblues on 28 April 2015 - 11:56 AM

I own 7, 9, 13.

 

I sold 6, 8, and 10 at least 4-5 times for profit.




#121383 The Official "How was your day?" Topic

Posted by bblues on 28 April 2015 - 11:52 AM

I won a prize on twitter that came in this morning!

 

Otherwise, been with the GF, tried to revise (miserably), and uh, I got FFX-X/2 HD on Vita. So that's probably not going to help studying.
