ChinaFE aka The Will of Good and Evil is a patch for FE8 for the GBA that makes the game significantly harder while adding a bunch of awesome stuff like third classes and characters from past fire emblems, hardcore fans of the series should definitely look into it (though it is all in chinese xD) | ||

Out of curiosity, does anyone know some characters to sacrifice to continue the Gaiden plot in Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon? I'm at a complete loss on who to sacrifice. The mages are so good and for some reason characters that I want to sacrifice have had beastly level ups  | ||

It's not a huge deal if you're not playing on H5 mode. I played on H5 mode and couldn't beat the final boss XD It's so crushing haha. | ||

I'm still trying to beat this on the hardmode. I'm stuck on Ch.19. One little misstep and I have to start the whole thing over again. Hard difficulty is no fucking joke. On normal you can send in one guy to kill every enemy. On hard he will quickly be killed if you try that. You won't have much appreciation for FE if you only play it on normal (I didn't). Edit: I also like the story. No redemption. People make choices, and sometimes they are irreversible. Sounds like real life to me. | ||

If you don't have 100% chance to hit you may as well scratch off 20 or 30 points of your hit chance. | ||

Is it possible? There are definitely GCN/Wii emulators out there (Dolphin comes to mind), but I haven't tried them, so I can't say if they work or not... Anyway, this is just a fantastic series of games, anyone who's even remotely interested in strategy games should give them a shot. I'm partial to Radiant Dawn, but that's probably because it's among the more challenging of the series, and it's pretty good in terms of length. Would you guys recommend playing through 1-5 at all? It seems like it would be a bit of a hassle to find emulators/translations for them, but if they're good games I'd definitely be interested. | ||

I'm at a complete loss on who to sacrifice. The mages are so good and for some reason characters that I want to sacrifice have had beastly level ups I can't give you the best advice on that because I only played through it once, but basically look at the reclasses of all of them. I have heard people say Wolf is the best character in the game, but I think they reclassed him to hero or something. BTW Marth is amazing in Shadow Dragon and brawl lol. He pwns Ike in Brawl. like badly Speaking of OP units, but in Path of Radiance, has anybody done this: In the first mission with the base, forgot which that is, just BEXP the crap out of Boyd until he classes up? You can wreck that mission if you get him anywhere close to warrior. Same thing with Haar in Radiant Dawn btw. For a while he is absolutely unstoppable. and edward. I have never not had him max all stats besides 1-2. I have played that one like 5 times at least LOL @ Eliwood btw hahaha | ||

The fantasy world, strategy, unique character development and interaction, soundtrack and underlying philosophical and libertarian tones make it a very memorable and impactful experience. | ||

I loved the hell out of the game boy series but thats about it, the ds ones were not as good IMHO. Anyone play the japanese ones? Yes, I can't completely recall for FE's 1-3, but 4 and 5, barring a few glitches can be played through fan translations.

Also, if anyone understands Japanese, or are familiar enough with Fire Emblem mechanics, you also can try FE7if and Super Thracia, probably two of the more sadistic Fire Emblem hacks I've ever tried. Though FE7if has a heck of a music collection, it's insane. Note: I take no responsibility over any form of mental trauma suffered from playing those hacks. Though I'd recommend completing FE7HHM, FE5, FE10 HM and FE11 H5 [Maybe also FE12 Lunatic reverse] before going on to it. Definitely try out the older Fire Emblem games,like FE4 and FE5, (FE11 and 12 are basically remakes of FE1 and 3 respectively, with slight modifications to gameplay and updated graphics) are very good games for their time and still provide a decent challenge, especially FE5 and the sheer sadistic madness it can inflict on its players. + Show Spoiler + I'm looking at you, Cyas and your 10 leadership stars. You + Reinhardt gave me nightmares for a while. FE4 however, is very much easier if you know what you're doing and easily breakable with understanding of the game mechanics. One thing though, the maps are ridiculously long for Fire Emblem standards. | ||
