I still just have one

You also have the Mew

I have only pulled the 👑 Mewtwo, which was back in November

I also got a video with <10 views recommended to me

Fire Emblem is pretty much dead to me. I will probably just keep replaying the older, better ones. They would have to do another remake to get me interested.

Sorry. Like a lot of people, I have not played Engage. I did not like Awakening or Fates besides the gameplay of Conquest.

Best I've played is Path of Radiance, but all from Thracia to Radiant Dawn are great imo.

Like what you want, but the things I dislike the most in FE games are a lack of game balance and heavily encouraged grinding first, ambush spawns second, and bad story third.

I dislike grinding and long chapters in Fire Emblem but I do like using a ton of units. Thracia 776 has the best balance for this imo. There are some archaic chapters in the game, but there are also some of the best ones in the series. There are so many mechanics only present in Thracia that I really like, especially Fatigue and capturing.

I said I haven't played Engage so I wouldn't know...

I am not talking about Engage. Just from the games I've played

Every game except the ones I haven't played, which are the NES games, TMS, and Engage

I'm just saying that these three things are present in some combination in many games that I don't like. Not saying that I dislike all the games. Like Sacred Stones, Awakening, and Echoes have those respawning enemies in the map that you're supposed to use to grind. And you can do unlimited grinding in those games and Birthright.

Awakening also has the dual strike and dual guard that are obscured from the player. Fates does it much better

There are two of them so I didn't want to list both

I have played the other spinoffs in some capacity

It's crazy that SoV is still a 'recent' game

I really disliked FE4 so I hope they make some slight changes to fix it.

The chapters are mostly spent moving instead of engaging with opponents

Thracia 776, Blazing Blade, Path of Radiance, Radiant Dawn for sure

Probably also Binding Blade and Fates Conquest

Sacred Stones and SoV to a lesser extent

Then some Akaneia games

Awakening and Three Houses probably at the bottom. Oh and Heroes I guess.

Path of Radiance is probably a template for a good game to me. Not perfect of course.

Most of the old FE games were very easy, balanced by low stat caps and the assumption you wouldn't restart the game upon losing characters (or that you would replace older characters with new ones). Also there was no class changing, so you had to make do with what you were given. With things like optional grinding and class changing and turn wheel, it is much harder for the devs to make a chapter that is truly challenging. So they didn't bother actually making the chapters fun or challenging, or at least that's what I got from Three Houses. Furthermore, I really didn't like the life sim aspect to the game. I play Fire Emblem solely for the turn-based tactics at this point.

The reason why SoV maps don't have 'map rot' is just because they are mostly unchanged. The original didn't have turnwheel.

SoV maps are really only similar to the Akaneia games, but that means if you haven't played them you should.

No, The Last Promise is peak

The Last Promise was the first completed, full-length Fire Emblem fan game and is notorious for Kelik Zenair, Siegfried, Anakin, and General Holton Cabal

Play Bells of Byelen

This is where we differ then

Even Athos?

Maybe Pokémon Day will be Fire Emblem Day in disguise

Fire Emblem Echoes 2 available for preorder now

The preorder bonus will be like an artbook and soundtrack, but then both it and the game will inevitably be canceled like FE64

I really need to update this

I mean, if you don't like it, compete yourself and win. These people...

It was funny that they were oblivious to that at the time

I haven't watched it so hopefully they explained things fully later

No I mean like that the commentators go on to explain why Wolfe was celebrating

That's pretty sad. The commentator who said that Dyl was one step closer to winning is a clown then lol

It's their job to understand what's going on and help people to understand, though they can also be entertaining by being wrong on purpose if it's done in the right way

I do kind of expect that. The best commentators for the finals are the people who helped build and test the finalist's team.

But it never happens

Maybe that's a little too much to say but that commentator should have understood that Farigiraf can't damage Incineroar and Incineroar beats Miraidon

I also didn't know there was a gallade full art. Also, the only themed collection I'm missing is the one that requires the full art spiritomb

Got two new cards from the gift packs. Very glad I didn't use my packs points yet.

Not a lot of information about Pokemon Champions, but I think you will be able to recruit Pokemon through some kind of story or campaign mode. These Pokemon will come pre-built. Hopefully you'll be able to customize your Pokemon's build, but if that's possible, there's very little point to using the transfer feature.
