Yea xD, good luck guys just try not to die to this enemy, why I sometimes team them up if two are in range
Searc needs someone that will scold him for it, cause clearly he should have known nothing would have come from it no matter how he did. Did poorly? Desai wouldn't be surprised. Did well? Desai is angry at him for out doing neason. Yea, but probably when they see at least one person take off after him they follow, cause welp it's a thing now, neason is an idiot and searc as no regard for his personal safety/wellbeing someone needs to bring the twins in
Hmm that works, just a unless they want you sending letters tot hem don't send any, and yea he has rules he has to follow in order to not be bothered by the church
Alright, hopefully I stop feeling guilty about it, only one has tried to refried me out of all of them, so guess that also says something about the friend ship to ^^; so maybe looking at it through that lens I can be like "ight they didn't value it as much as I did, not going to worry about this anymore."
Sounds good, I'll try get replies up when I'm home from work

Sometimes I wonder what the enemy commander thinks when he sees his men keep running at opponents that can easily destroy them xD But sadly enemies aren't the only ones who can be stupid. ****ing Villagers that can die in two hits but somehow think it's a good idea to step in an enemies range. "Oh no, bandits are attacking our village and they're gonna kill us all! Please help us, we don't wanna die!!!" THEN STOP RUNNING TOWARDS THEM! Yup. Everyone can figure out that it's pointless but only few would outright say it. Like you said, if he does well then Desai hates him for outdoing Neason. And if he doesn't then Desai would probably just call him useless again and punish him. Even if he's exactly as good as Neason Desai wouldn't be happy because how dare someone as worthless as Searc try to be equal to him? Yup, at least as long as they're not too busy with some other agarthans. But even then at least one or two could run after him Maybe they send someone down there to secretly keep an eye on him. And that person has to report to the church if Jason really does go against the rules they've set for him. Unless he does something really bad, then that person would even be allowed to execute him right away It's not easy not feeling bad about it but I hope you will eventually. And interesting that one of them tried to refriend you. But yeah, says a lot that it was only one of them. Not exactly a pleasant discovery but at the same time maybe that can help you move on from this?
Edit: And finally done with my replies!

fdgerer ikr!?!? happened in engage in a side mission, villager ran right at the enemies, and then the other ones gave me flack saying 'if only we all could have made it" like naw you all just stood around and that ONE villager that ran at the enemies was dumb, if only thing you got freed of a dumb man
pretty much no matter what he did that mission, desai would still do what he does yea 1 or 2 sounds good to go after him
just gives this boy a babysitter, that gets to kill the child, but still equivalent to a babysitter
yea, and it is, cause i just keep thinking, only one of them tried to refriend me, out of the 4 of them i unfriended only 1 tried to refriend me. and its working and sides i have another friend group on discord ive talked with it about that say the same as you, that im in the right to unfriend and that its oaky to cut ties. maybe i'll give it a few months and if im still feeling guilty i'll reach out to them, but for now naw
nice, ended up choosing to play engage and do homework. hyped cause i have fire emblem echos being delivered today, so now have 2 fe games to spend time on

Yeah, game, don't blame me for someone else's stupidity! I still remember some paralogues like that. Especially the second (or third?) one in Awakening. Three villagers asking for help because they're being chased by bandits or Plegian soldiers, not sure which one in was. Anyway, all they needed to do was stand still and let us defend them. What do they do instead? Run to the left side of the map, right into a group of aggressive baddies. The very first time I played it one of the villagers was killed, both because he was too dumb to live and because I was too hesitant in my approach. Now, with some years of FE experience, I can easily protect all three of course but that paralogue still makes me super anxious xD
I think anyone who knows even a little bit about Desai could have told him that. But no one would be able to convince Searc at this point. So in a way it's good that this mission ends the way it does. Searc doesn't deserve any of it of course but at least it makes him realize that no matter what he does, Desai will never acknowledge him They still can't stop Searc from being stupid but it's the thought that counts
Yup xD But hey, as long as Jason behaves he doesn't have much to fear
Been thinking of some of the earlier missions. For one there's the Shady Bois thing next month. We said it takes place at night if I remember correctly. So I guess not only is this the first time those kids get to fight for real but it'll also be their first experience with the much hated Fog of War crap xD Sure, there's no fog but since it's nighttime it'll still be difficult to see much. And it's pretty much Ambrose's excuse for attacking the kids sometimes, right? ^^ But aside from that, do we want any other missions, sidequests or paralogues where it's difficult to see? More battles at night, actual fog, sandstorms or snowstorms... Not for the first real missions of course but maybe for the second one for one of the three houses?
Good that you have another friend group and that they also think you're in the right! And yeah, just give it some time. Cutting ties isn't easy, even when it's for a good reason. As for reaching out to them if you still feel guilty, just ask yourself if it's worth it. Actually think about it and don't just do something out of guilt. Sometimes we feel guilty about cutting ties with someone even when they were a completely crappy person. So yeah, think about it first before you reach out to them. It's your decision of course but it should be made carefully
Oh no, homework xD Can't blame you for that. Also can't blame you for playing Engage. And cool, two FE games! I remember having lots of fun with Echoes!

i usually pair someone with the villagers and have them protect them, cause lord knows these villagers wont protect themselves
yea, cause its the final straw for him to stop trying to reach a goal he will never get, and lives for himself an works towards things he truly cares about, so the ending very needed for him yea, still sucks it takes it to go this far for him to finally learn that desai is a piece fo shit that will never acknowledge him as his son the one thing he can have in common with neason, both do stupid things
that would be cool to have more missions like that, whether main/side/paralogue as it will also help students who gets a boost when in such environments, and yep the fog is the sole reason he can use to attack the students, namely the mutt, but shhhh he doesnt have a favorite
yea, glad i have them for this there, if i didnt have another friend group on discord i probably would have caved and thrown myself back to the other group by now. if anything, and thats a big if, i might only refriend the one person that tried to do so with me, if i truly truly want to associate with them. and yea thats why im waiting a few months to see if the guilt will go away and its only sitting around rn cause everything still relatively fresh rn

Yeah, that usually works but sometimes it's difficult to even get to them. Not so bad if it's in a game where one of your units can learn Rescue of course. But if it isn't an option? Time to move across the map as fast as possible and hope I didn't overlook any dangerous enemy that has a weapon that's effective against on of my units xD
True, but at least Desai will get what he deserves. And while Searc already tries to figure out what he wants to do with his live and becomes his own person sometime after the Garland Moon mission maybe Desai getting executed is what finally makes him feel truly free from him? Let's just hope the others aren't as stupid xD Sure, Tahvo starts out trying to look like an idiot but stops at some point. So once we have all those battles with the agarthans he'll be one of the smarter Deer. Not sure about Callan though, he'll still be an idiot if he thinks he has to protect others. But by then he'll be a Malig Knight and his wyvern will try to keep him out of trouble xD Zephyr just outright disobeying if he thinks this idiot is going to get himself killed if he lets him run off
Alright, Fog of War it is! Nighttime for the Shady Bois quest (and maybe even newmoon so it's even harder) and a few missions with other stuff that limits vision. As for the first real mission with that sort of thing, it's probably different for each house. As for paralogues, maybe one that's set in Albinea could have a snowstorm. And one in Sreng could have a sandstorm. But yeah, Ambrose claiming he couldn't tell friend from foe in the dark, even though the kids were still able to only attack the shady boys xD Bonus points for mainly going after wolfboy despite there being no beastkin among the bad guys Also, sucks to be Elara. Having to go on a minor mission before the real first one starts xD Then again most in the group are strong enough to deal with the shady boys so if she's not ready for this yet they won't mind if she remains in the background for now
Yeah, if you do wanna refriend someone you should probably only give the one who also tried to refriend you a chance at first. And glad that you're going to wait for now! If you don't feel guilty anymore then, cool. But even if you still do, don't let that be the only reason to go back to them. Take it from someone who kept crawling back to some very shitty friends way too often despite knowing exactly how crappy they were. It's been a little over ten years and I still feel slightly bad for cutting them out of my life. So yeah, guilt isn't always a good indicator on what you should do in these kinds of situations, even if it's after you had some time to think about it

true, but usually thats why if i have a horse person or a flyiing class i send them that way just cause they are faster then an on foot person, and it sjust mainly gives me piece of mind to do other aspects of the fight, because ehhh theres at least one person there to protect them, if they die, they die
yep, only with the death would searc truly be free, cause sure he can become his own person, but desai will still be looming over him to some degree when he returns neason is less stupid/irresponsible and actually starts being competent, ciarra who knows
yesss, no moon to help guide them to further have him be like 'i didnt know it was you guys : ( " and yea just 'oh they must have a mutt to, wierd" never mind the facthe hears tahvos voice, just must be hearing things, and yea elara might hide in the back and offer all healing to everyone if anything,, and only attack an opponent if he has no choice
yep yep, had an irl friend group that was toxic been free from that since freshman year of high school, so i know when i need to cut ties and when i need to try mend them with groups. glad you got free from your own experience : )

My problem is that I would only send a horse person or a flying class if I was absolutely sure that they'd be fine on their own for a while. Because I am not sacrificing them to save some villager from their own idiocy xD So I take a slighty slower approach and still somehow manage to get there in time. I still want to get the reward for protecting every villager after all so while I'm more averse to taking certain risks I still manage to save those idiots!
The Deer will throw Searc a party for this. No one will think it's inappropriate because everyone knows how much of a jerk Desai was. The Golden Deer just celebrate and the other two houses run into town and sing 'ding dong the witch is dead' Well, less stupid for the most part. He still runs off to confront Akakios once he figures out what he's planning. Sure, he only does so to protect his brother but he should have known that Searc wouldn't let him do that
Yeah, those shady boys must have a mutt too and he just happens to sound exactly like Tahvo xD No one's buying it of course but they'll just have to put up with this. As for Elara, neither of my two Shady Bois would have a problem with that and would even understand in some way. Tahvo isn't a fan of fighting so he's not gonna blame her for trying to not participate too much. And Larissa would sympathize even more. She's not gonna say anything about it and won't ask her why she wants to hide in the back, she'll just wordlessly accept it and if someone wants to force her fight anyway she'll make a joke at their expense
Thanks. And good to know you also managed to get free from that irl friend group back then! Kinda wish neither of us would have had to deal with that but at least those experiences were helpful in some way. It's so important to know whether one needs to cut ties or should try to mend things with them

Oh I don't even pay attention to if they would survive or not, I just throw them at the villager and hope for the best as I use others to take out enemies
Fully supported celebration of death, and not the usual type, this type is celebrating cause they are happy he's dead not to mourn at all True he's less stupid, still stupid enough to run off alone to confront an enemy
That's good, Ambrose might complain about elara not fighting, and helping the students, namely tahvo, cause she's just making his work so much harder, and yea XD no excuse that he kept attacking them and only them would ever be a convincing one cause he should have recognized the voices
Yea same, but like you said it taught us lessons and gave experience. And yea really is, cause you have to take into account so many things like your own happiness and such , and decide if it would truly be a loss to lose someone or not

Almost makes me regret always picking classic mode, it just makes me too paranoid about everything xD "I could send my pegasus knight to protect that villager from those mages. But there's an archer over there. At the other end of the map. I could easily take him out before he reaches my pegasus knight so it's almost impossible for him to kill my flier. It's almost impossible for this to go wrong... Nah, too risky!"
Oh, it'll be more than just a happy celebration! They'll turn his death into a national holiday! He may be a competent leader then but he will keep some of his stupidity ^^
Oh good, so Larissa gets to make fun of him even more! It's no longer just because he's mean to Tahvo, now she'll also have to defend Elara because no one gets to complain about her being afraid of fighting on her watch xD And yeah, no excuses for Ambrose attacking the kids. "But those shady boys sounded exactly like you kids! They're good at imitating other people's voices!"
Also need to figure out now how good or bad everyone deals with any kind of fog of war. Tahvo should do well enough, he can still figure out where his opponents are by sound and/or smell. And he's not bothered by snowstorms and darkness too much. Can't see well in fog and sandstorms though. Callan and Julius will probably struggle with those missions, they just have to advance slowly and stick close to their allies. Agnar has his personal skill. While in a normal fight it boosts his accuracy and crit chance if he initiates combat, he doesn't get that if there's fog or anything else that makes it harder to see. Instead it just gives him a better field of vision than most. Larissa doesn't see much under such circumstances but thanks to her training she can still figure out from which direction an enemy might attack. Konstantin doesn't see super well in fog of war either but he has experience and knows how to approach such missions My Eagles don't have any of the advantages Tahvo, Agnar, Lara and Konstantin have, so they'll probably be more like Julius and Callan, only more confident in their own abilities. So they'll just stick close to the group and advance slowly. Same goes for Jasmine but she's more likely to just rush ahead anyway. Néo too, he's even more likely to do that xD But at least he can rely on sounds and can tell where the enemy is. Doesn't stop him from blindly running towards them, they're just humans after all and he thinks he can easily take them down
Yup! Sure, not a fun way to learn that but an effective one. Being able to make judgements like that is a good skill to have and it's sad that too many people think that their happiness isn't important enough or that they are allowed to cut ties with someone who only makes them feel like shit

loving echoes so far from what i played, i love how alm uses 'grandpapa' that i took a picture of it and sent it to one of my friends that i jokingly call grandpa/grandpapa
meanwhile i just throw the closest party member at the mage cause you are able to do 23 damage of its 45 health have at it young knight, knight misses
naw we cant give desai that much, we dont want them crooked people turning it into some of kind of celebration like actually mourning him, maybe just a national holiday among the students he will never truly be free from the stupidity
yea same, i'll have to think on it for mine, i know juris would probably do great in a snowstorm with his skill, and i think one of my other characters do better in the dark, ill need to go look back
def not, just recently dmed the one that tried to refriend and just explained the situation and my feelings over everyhting, and she apologized and said that she loves my characters, and that they are just slow character builders when it comes to getting to know them, and its just that my style of characters doesnt match with the other persons, and says that she also apologizes that she never gave much effort to rp with me in past rps and that the focus always got put on hers and another persons that it caused mine to get overshadowed. and then just ended her end off that she hopes she can still talk with me and stuff. so amybe if anything im only going to remain friends with her
but that is a BIG if, im still giving myself time to figure things out, i only dmed cause she sent another dm asking how i was doing, and i just thought it wouldnt hurt to just try talk. but havent responded since all the messages she sent that i mentioned above. dont plan to, giving myself probs till may before i come to a decision cause college is my priority rn, not this shit

It's probably my favorite of the 3DS FE games. And yeah, Alm calling Mycen 'grandpapa' is adorable xD Oh, and be sure to always look around whenever you're in a new area. Not just because in some places you might find some stuff but also because of what the two main lords have to say. They both adore cats, Alm makes some bad puns about some things and if I remember correctly Celica giggles at the words "pirate booty" when you look at some stolen stuff at some place so she's not the most mature person either xD
I mean, it's always worth a shot I guess xD Meanwhile I refuse to attack when I see that the enemy has a crit chance of 1. Then, after running out of options, I check again and see that even if he crits he still wouldn't deal too much damage. Hooray, I was freaking out over nothing xD
True I guess but then again it would be a great way to judge someone's character. Do they celebrate Desai's death or do they mourn him? If it's the latter they're bad people and need to be avoided at all cost!
Not surprised at Juris doing well in snowstorms ^^ Oh, and do we wanna change things up a little for some mission? I mean, so far it seems like the kids just need to beat the enemy group for the most part. Or take out their leader. Do we want some different objectives for some battles, like escaping, defending some area and stuff like that?
Hm. Interesting. Sounds like you might be able to remain friends with her but yeah, like you said, give yourself time first! It'll be a long wait for her but that's just how it is, you need the time to make a good decision about this after all. If you end up remaining friends with her, cool. And if not, that's fine too. You're not obligated to keep in contact with her. So yeah, take all the time you need to come to a decision!

yea i noticed that, when i was outside the houe and i just picked up random things, cue me taking my time to the gate to explore what i could of the town to find stuff, lukas and kliff look fine
oh if it can crit me, thats when i send two at it, to where it slike one do some damage get killed, then the other can finish the job.
maybe only like the real shitty nobles would mourn him, meanwhile theres a giant party going on at the cherith house, everyone is welcomed inside for the celebration and get treated equally
yea, i think any of the kids from albinea would to some degree do fine in snowstorms to some extent, some better then others, but to some degree they thrive jsut cause home territory advantage ooo yes!! i was thinking with elara's paralogue it might be a win for them to get her out to safety/defeat her brother conditions
so convo continued and it went like so well, like im surprised how good it did. and she was very understanding about my feelings and everything, while i told her i wont return to the group/server, id be up for still talking to her, but that i still need time to get my head straight and that if i ever do convos would be short and sweettype things. but ea really giving myself till may before i accept the friend request or if i just leave her unfriended by still be talking to her? but enough sadness
cause looking at your responses and seeing nora's and my first thought was 'nora common sense isnt even something in neason's vocabulary" this boy lives and breathes the chaotic lifestyle
but another note, dm for the dnd campign recently sent out a little opening to the next session, sadly we havent had any cause her work is short handed and with her having a management position it just has been stressful for her, but its fine cause i get it with how my own work can get when its short handed. but the opener has us with this 3ft giant cat, and my first reaction was 'im getting this cat no matter what' give my pyromanic druid an alligator shark and a 3ft cat. nevermind that the other party member is a mouse hybrid we wont worry abotu that,cause giant cat

Oh, since you mentioned Kliff, have you recruited him and Faye? They don't join you automatically, you have to talk to them at the Ram Village Entrance. There are also two characters who will join you if you talk to them at the Deliverance Hideout Entrance. I think that's all for Act 1. Or there are some more recruited this way, not sure. Oh well, just be sure to talk to everyone. All the other Acts also have some characters who won't join automatically and have to be talked to. Just something to keep in mind ^^
Don't make me jealous of you being able to sacrifice your pawns! xD I always make sure everyone lives and sometimes it's a real hassle. But these things are what makes both casual and classic mode so much fun
Ooooh, party at the Cherith house! All the commoners on his territory will attend, that's for sure! Same goes for the Golden Deer. Tahvo will even travel all the way from Albinea for this xD
Yup, neither of my albinean kids will be bothered too much by snowstorms. I guess the same can be said for anyone who lives in a desert, only that they do relatively well with sandstorms instead? Sounds fun! So is it either escape or defeat him or do the kids have to do both? Because two objectives sounds cool, and it would be fair since it's well into the year when we do that paralogue. Aaand now I have to think about whether I want some escape, defense or seize mission for one of my characters. I know Agnar and Tahvo's paralogues will be about defeating all enemies for the former and defeating the boss for the latter. But I'm thinking of making Nora's paralogue a defense mission. As for any other paralogues, I don't know yet. Also have to think about my characters' main missions
That's good to hear! Looks like things are working out for you in that regard. And yeah, still good that you wanna take time to properly decide. Cool that she understands. I'm happy for you ^^
Haha, yeah! But I'm sure she'll figure that out soon enough, probably when she hears that he is going to use magic at the mock battle and on missions xD
Cool, I was wondering about that! Hope you all will have some time for it eventually! And hell yeah, go get that giant kitty! Sucks to be the mouse hybrid though. Oh well, too bad, the group needs the giant kitty!

not yet, not that far in sadly cause when i started it my ds decided that it wasnt going to be fully charged, so im aty the part where you go tell grandpapa that you are going in his place with lukas, but can i say i love the opening movie though got me really invested right away. and good to know i'll make sure i do : )
it hurts me to sacrifice them, but if it works to make sure i can win, yea i will willingly throw someone to their death, for the better good
yep, neason invited everyone on the territory, the best food is served for everyone to partake in, maybe they light a wood statue of desai on fire to head the celebration
yea, just cause its weather they are used to, sure they could still struggle in them so they arent fully op compared to other students, cause i mean being in the midwest where we get a lot of snow, and get really cold temps, there are some days where even i saw XD, but yea just them having a bit more of like..a resistance or something to it? same gonna add that to my list to think on,
thank you!
"he's going to use a tome right? right" meanwhile searc is just preparing for every worst case scenario possible that stems from neason not using a tome
we are aiming for the weekend, and if it happens you sure as hell know ill share, but heres some things that happened the last time we managed to do it, and yea literally said, sorry to silva but im getting the giant cat for my boy -we went to forest of trees that screamed and talked -zack set it on fire which made them scream more -we got whisked to another dimension -we annoyed the cultists there that took us prisoner by constantly taking soemthing they said out of context, and demanding drugs -silva and a few of the npc party members got high -zack, failed to get high every single time i tried to, to the point it was basically a running joke during the session that hes immune to being high -zack threw a high silva, so perfectly that it sobered her up, and promptly getting her stuck in the eye socket of this ancient god, who was not amused by zack throwing silva -we meet up with our info broker, who gave zack a whole bottle of whiskey, that he drank the whole bottle of, and after doing a roll for a tolerance check he got a 5, so he is black out drunk -we ended off with silva and three npc party members high and zack black out drunk
and the next session is going to be a parody of sorts of the hangover movie, where we have to piece together what happened in our intoxicated/high states

Aw, that's a shame ^^ But yeah, I know what you mean. Made me even more excited about the game when I first played it!
Good thing they don't grow to resent you for it xD Imagine that, chatting with everyone while exploring and doing stuff and when you talk to someone you sacrificed last mission they will chew you out for it or be super sad about it. Yup, probably good that's not a thing xD
Sounds good! And they better make that wooden statue as ugly as Desai's personality!
Yes, they're not completely immune to it but like you said, have some kind of a resistance to it. And wow, you guys get a lot of snow? We don't get much and if we do it doesn't last long. Except that one time two years ago, it got so bad that we all had to leave work early because there just was nothing to do. The whole warehouse was filled with boxes that couldn't get delivered that day because there was so much snow that trucks weren't allowed to drive. So I guess it's a good thing we usually don't get much snow xD
yw ^^
Yeah, Searc just knows it's gonna be a disaster. Both Neason and Julius casting spells without tomes and while no one knows what will happen it's best to be prepared for anything. Even just one of them would be bad enough but both? Yup, the Deer may not stand a chance but Nora is right to think that the Eagles have to be prepared if Neason doesn't use a tome xD
Alright, looking forward to it, whether or not you guys get to do it next weekend! And yikes xD Zack setting the screaming trees on fire, the party annoying the cultists and demanding drugs, poor Zack not getting high... and it gets even weirder from here xD Wow. Just wow. Looks like you're of to a great start next time!

yea after i finish up with homework, ima play some more, or play engage which ever one i feel like after homework
yeaa, im glad they dont retain memories like that, id be getting so many characters yelling at my unit for sacrificing them
omg yes, just a very crudely done statue, probably put together the day of so it was rushed, but there was still effort put into it, just so you can tell its desai
yea, we've had snow in every month but july. we get a lot of blizzards though here, and there was one period of time where we had temps colder than Antarctica XD and thankfully my college moved classes to be online/cancelled. thats horrible, i always feel bad for places that dont get snow just cause it can be pretty when it falls, but also get jealous of places that dont get snow cause those usually are the places that get the closest thunderstorms
Searc: buckets of water? Rekka: Check. Searc: Other spells? Estelle: Check. Searc: Alibi? Callan: Chec- wiat what? Searc: we need a shared story to tell dad the professor to avoid getting in toruble because of those two *points at Neason and Julius who currently are setting their tomes on fire*
yea we are XD, i do so much stuff that when the dm tells it to other people they dont believe her that they happened, so in one vc i had to confirm to one of her roommates that yes in fat i did throw a high mouse into an ancient gods eye socket

Have fun ^^ But man, why do these games have to be so addicting?! And crap, now I kinda wanna pick up Echoes again xD
Yeah, if they did that I'd just feel super guilty about it xD Or get defensive if the only reason they got their ass kicked was them missing with their attacks way too many times
Yes, they put it together last minute but still resembles Desai enough. Because he's just not worth the effort of long time preperation!
Oh wow, yup, that's a lot of snow you guys get xD And yeah, kinda jealous because it does look pretty. As for thunderstorms, we do get quite a few. Not too many but still enough. I just love the sound of heavy rainfall and thunder at night!
Yeah, pretty much xD They need to come up with something so they won't get in trouble for this. I mean, how are they gonna explain the burning pond or brook? And the tree that got its branches blown up? "Uh... mother nature is scary as ****" doesn't cut it xD

i shall XD though having the direct playing in the background and wave 2 hits later todayu, and rn my brain is like lets do engage cause wave 2, but i might go to echoes to get progression there, i also need to get around to getting relevation dlc for the fates games before the shop closes
same XD, i will have at least 2 scolding me after every battle, yea like if it was there fault i might not feel bad cause if you just hit your attack you wouldnt have died
i love that, listening to the rain and thunder is like the best parts
they just have a whole book of lies to tell, cause they cant say the same thing every time

Hm. Tough choice xD But yeah, Wave 2 is a good enough reason to pick Engage
Yeah, I really don't wanna hear it from someone who had a chance of 90 to land a hit and missed but kept getting hit by an enemy with a hit rate of 30 or something. Like, if you fail to dodge so many times you deserve everything and don't get to blame me xD
Yeah. Best sounds to relax or fall asleep to!
They better hope no one outside the Deer finds that book xD And even when the idiots actually master some of their spells they'll still try to use new ones they haven't even practised yet so the chaos never ends

Oooo I've seen some posts on Twitter about the new game :0 It looks really pretty! But I figured I'd save for the new BOTW game, and I haven't played enough of the old Fire Emblem games to truly appreciate the new one akdjfakjakjf

It's a lot of fun! I see lots of people hating on the story but praising the gameplay. And sure, the story really ain't nothing special but I don't actually mind. I'm having fun playing this game and that's all that matters to me. And many of the characters are completely deranged, at least in their support conversations! xD I haven't played the old FE games either (except for two GBA titles, so I somewhat know Ephraim, Eirika, Lyn and Hector) and only started with the 3DS titles but it doesn't bother me too much, I still enjoy the new game a lot ^^

AKsjflkj sometimes a subpar story is fine if the game is pretty enough. I feel that way about a couple games and a couple anime lmaooo Totally agree that as long as you're having fun it makes buying it worth it! I played FEH for a little while, and I've played one or two other games, but I figured if I wanna play Engage I might want to at least become more familiar with the characters I'd be interacting with :] I'm glad you're having fun! Let me know when you're done with it and what your thoughts are :0

Yeah, while I do appreciate a good story I can also enjoy something with a subpar one if I enjoy other things. Sometimes I love the characters so much that they make up for it, other times I just love the gameplay... sure, it's great if a game has good characters, a good story and a fun gameplay but sometimes just one of these things is enough. And if the game looks pretty too? Definitely a bonus! And I won't say no to a good soundtrack either. I think you don't necessarily need to know much about the characters from the old games but I guess it does make it more enjoyable if you do. For example, I've never played a game with Marth as the main lord and I think I'd appreciate him more if I had played one of those games. On the other hand I have played Echoes so I am familiar with Celica and was excited when I got her emblem ring. So yeah, fair point ^^ And sure, I'll let you know what I think! Will take a while though, I'm taking my time with this game xD Ember is probably much closer to finishing it and can tell you more. Still gonna share my thoughts when I'm done though ^^

I hate this semester, have two papers to write this week, kinda need a draft done by Friday and a proposal written by Friday. *faceplants*
And yea I love engage lots of fun, even though I never played the games some of the emblems are from I was able to appreciate them as I got them in heroes, but yea if I played the actual games I'm sure I would have been more ecstatic about them.
I'm at like chapter 16, took a break from main line to do the divine paralogues. Sadly switched to Normal mode as of today, as tikis was such a bitch on hard and I need to do hers to get the others. But I'm planning to do more runs through cause lots of peeps I want to marry, so I'll probably do another hard mode

Yikes, that's a lot. Not surprising but still, that sounds like plenty of work. They really want to see you guys suffer, huh
I don't play Heroes so I know them even less xD Sure, I've heard about most of them and have a little bit of knowledge about those guys but there are definitely some I know next to nothing about. Doesn't make this game any less fun though! Yeah, I heard bad things about Tiki's paralogue and thanks to that I'm a little terrified of it xD But I should probably do it now rather than later because the later you do the divine paralogues the harder they get. Sucks that you're stuck on Normal now though. I hate that they don't allow you to change the difficulty to hard again. But yeah, since you're going to do more runs you get another chance!
Oh, and I've been wondering about something. How would Desai react if someone insulted or mocked him? Would he just take his anger out on Searc or would he actually retaliate?

Thankfully proposal is easy as I just need to bring papers of sources I'll use and say what my topic is going to be, and the draft is easy all I have to do is write summaries of the articles I'm using for evidence and like a few other things, and it's just I'd rather play games then do that XD
Yea I'd get close but then either run out of turns or alear dies. I raged at one point because I got both sigils and just had to fight her and alear decided, while being at full health, that he was going to kiss both attacks and get hit and then miss in his defense so he dies by the enemy. But yea when I saw that I got so angry cause I saved after tikis paralogue after I beat her, only for my bed to say "you can't change from normal"
Depends. If it's a young kid, he'd take it out on the parents should they be on his territory. If it's one of the deer, he'd take it out on searc cause how dare you lie about me you useless pile of trash, if it's an adult he'd take it out on them

Okay, so it could be worse then ^^ Still doesn't sound like the most enjoyable week
Ugh, I hate having a turn limit! Unless it's a defense/survival map but that's a different thing entirely. But clearing the objective in a set amount of turns? Hate it xD Oh well, one more reason to just get it over with, then I have that annoying paralogue out of the way. And wow, that sounds frustrating. Definitely don't blame you for switching to normal. Makes me glad that I'm playing on normal in the first place. As for only being allowed to lower the difficulty, I hope they finally change that for whatever the next title will be. Don't really expect it though
Aw, that's too bad xD Because I can think of at least two characters (one being wolfboy) who would do that. But definitely not if it just gets Searc in trouble with him. I guess Desai would still do that even if they are just making such remarks when he's directly being rude to them? But yeah, no Deer will talk back when they're on his territory for the Garland Moon mission. But what about his visit to Garreg Mach at the Lantern Festival? Searc isn't going to be anywhere near him anyway and it's after his and Neason's birthday. You said their father is sending them a letter for that, mainly addressed to Neason but also telling Searc to not come back home. So since he's pretty much disowned Searc most students and professors will not let him anywhere near the kid. "Yeah no, you can't punish him for this, he's no longer your son according to your last letter"

Yea XD
Yea, and then Sorens paralogue limits your staff and dance usage, but his is pretty easy though, but again could be the facts it's on normal, so it's hard to judge their difficulties. And same I hate turn limit battles unless it's like you said a defense/survival one, but clearing it in the turn limit and beating the objective is just ahhhh
On his own territory he would behave how I said. But at garreg mach? Man well just put up with it cause he wouldn't dare do anything that might reflect poorly on his "perfect image" and yea no one will allow for him to get anywhere near searc, and searc wouldn't even want anything to do with desai after the Garland Moon anyways. And yea XD man you disowned your son why you wanting to seek him out

Oooh, interesting. Sounds like it could be fun or annoying. But if he's pretty easy, like you said, it won't be too much of a problem. And yeah, defense and survival maps are fun! Sure, they can be stressful and as much as I love Chapter 10 in Fates: Conquest it's also a map I dread but it's also what makes them so exciting. There's also a defense map in Echoes and I loved it. Not part of the main story but a dlc one. And there also was a survival chapter in Sacred Stones that I enjoyed a lot. So yeah, defending an area or simply surviving for a set amount of turns is definitely one of my favorite objectives
So they're free to bully him at the festival xD I mean, no one likes him but I guess most will just ignore him or act polite, especially the nobles because it would also reflect poorly on them if they just insulted him. As for Garland Moon, Tahvo would only be sassy to him after Desai has punished Searc and only when the group is ready to head back so that asshole can't do even more shit. And even then he'd only say something if Desai made some more remarks about beastkin being inferior to humans. But yeah, whether someone insults Desai or not, that guy better stay away from Searc after the Garland Moon because it's probably not only the Deer who will stop him. Go stand with your wife and Rossi and be unpopular together xD
