IIRC FESS wasnt my first FE forum either, but simply the first one Iwas active at. After it went down the tubes I actually moved over to FEU with the spriting community, but sort of got out of that because...frankly the FEU spriting community got really snobby and elitest and the friendly voices got drowned out by the condescending, snarky ones. My own forums were getting extremely active at the time and merged with Crystal Shards' Mercury Forums (which I also own now but is pretty dead), so, yeah, just sort of drifted away.
I agree about the wholesale dumping of FE conventions in the newer games, ftr. I havent gotten to play but I've read and watched videos and such, and the entire franchise feels very different. Mechanics aside, even the aesthetic feels more...I dunno, is anime the right word? Feels, more anime? t the risk of sounding obnoxiously hipster I think it feels very mainstream and not very unique anymore.
But anyway, yeah, things are slow, but that'a just how it is. Thanks for the hellos.
