I could be down for that. Very curious about the Gaiden remake myself. But does that mean we need to create a new thread for Gaiden? | ||

Metroid would sell in Japan like hotcakes if it had more of that anime, waifu-bait tropes like Fire Emblem did since Awakening; nothing wrong with that per se but kinda wish Nintendo would look into developing games based on popular demand by Western audiences. Unfortunately, the anime waifu tropes are what made Fire Emblem popular in the west since Awakening as well. I suppose I don't mind since the gameplay is still good. I can just cringe through the story portions and click fast on the support convos. | ||

I have been trying to never group up my dudes so that they all level equally. However, it seems basically impossible to make it through levels 17+ without at least someone dying. This is playing on normal. If people can beat stuff on hard, I am clearly playing this very wrong. Am I supposed to be actively grouping and ungrouping my dudes? I can't believe some people can beat levels on difficulties higher than I am playing, but clearly it is true. I must be doing things very wrong. | ||

The game kind of naturally favors having less units with more concentrated strength. From an efficiency standpoint, half your roster getting one or two levels doesn't really make your army stronger, while having 5 or 6 characters with 4 or 5 more levels does. In this sense, having half your roster not getting experience and being pair up fodder for most of the game actually helps you in the long run. Of course, everything needs to be balanced within reason. You'll want to have your pair up fodder reach at least level 10 so they can promote, and you'll eventually reach a point where your strongest characters don't gain much exp per kill while your weaker characters will get a lot of exp for killing the same unit. | ||

Deployment limits cap out in the range of 13-15. Of those, 3-4 of those will generally be non-combat utility units (staff users, dancer, etc.). Another 2-4 are spots that end up being "reserved" for late recruits that will generally recruit on-level or over-leveled (the princes, children, Birthright Shura, etc.), so you don't really need to raise a unit in their place till they get there. This gets you down to a number around 5-7 units left that you need to raise to fill out your lategame team. Leveling any more than that ends up "wasting" experience since you only need a team as large as the actual deployment limit. Units you raise beyond that early game end up spending a lot of time on the bench. Note that this doesn't mean you use those 5-7 units exclusively early game. Small amounts of early-midgame XP is pretty inconsequential, so using other units to help speed things along is very much advisable. But actively trying to level people evenly is not particularly useful. Try to maintain a "core team" that you focus most of your resources on, which you slowly add to with later recruits. | ||

I always leveled up around 10 units evenly without any problems. I don't think Fire Emblem is a game where you need to follow one strict way to beat the game, that's what is so beautiful about it | ||

But yeah, going for 'female only', 'flyer only', 'laguz only', 'only-take-the-characters-who-are-the-lowest-level' etc. runs is what makes FE so replayable. Drafts are great too. I remember the days of Gamefaqs "draft competitions" where 4-5 ppl would draft a team and then aim for the lowest turn count. | ||
