Topic: Fire Emblem Warriors

@Meowpheel I've noticed different, at least regarding Azura but I have the Switch version so maybe it's a New 3DS issue?

@Meowpheel you don't kill your soldiers...they are just sleeping. pokes with shoe ok, so coma then...

@Grumblevolcano yeah must be a 3ds thing. Not complaining though.

@Ryu_Niiyama good thing those swords, axes and lances don't actually cut or else this would be a very different game!

In other news, I'm really glad the lancers aren't clones. And also Azura is awesome, love the fact her special has different versions and her clothes change with them. The songs could end less abruptly though.

I'm just glad to finally have Lance-users that aren't deathly allergic to arrows.

I'm currently loving Azura right now! I didn't think I'd enjoy her as much as I have, but now she is in my top 4 characters to play as. I guess being a lance unit that doesn't make me feel like I'm trying to control a wild bull helps...Oboro is nice, but for me she doesn't compare to Azura's destructive move set. Niles is just the FOURTH archer clone so...not gonna lie. He's not my favorite.

I can appreciate Nile's "male Camilla" vibe, but yeah Azura is awesome.

And yeah, I am enjoying the pegasus riders a lot less than I anticipated. It's like I'm hitting thin air all the time.

Fire Emblem Warriors - Oboro Trailer (Nintendo Switch)

A bit of a random trailer.

Anyway. I beat the main story, collected all the normal Anna mementos in that mode, and started the first history map.

I've been trying to spread out the experience across all the characters. Since I ended up with a few strong ones and many many ignored ones after the main story.

Completing all the badge thingies will take quite a while, it was far easier to upgrade the characters in Hyrule Warriors.

So, after many days waiting, I finally received the game. I haven't had much time to play it, but my initial impresssion of the 3DS version is good. The story is completely ridiculous though.

@Meowpheel You were right about the difficulty, the game feels just right on normal. The character progression is making me enjoy the game even more and I'm pleased with the performance on N3DS.
I would trade the number of enemies for improved visuals though. Instead of 50-100 spawning and getting killed I would be fine with 10-20 and smaller maps. I do get that the special thing about musou games is the feelling of killing hundreds in seconds but I would still feel powerful with that change. The game doesn't look bad and some effects look quite nice, but now that I can compare it with Senran Kagura 2 I feel that the reviews were much more strict with that game, wich had amazing models and fluid gameplay with many combos and special attacks. The strategic aspect, party change and side missions definitely help it feel less repetitive.

Can't say I mind the graphics, but I do find it quite commendable how they managed to display more enemies on screen while making them look normal. Compared to HWL.

As much as I love that game, the mooks really took a hit in terms of quality, to the point where it was hard to tell they weren't 2D sprites.

It's kinda sad that they removed the dynamic battle intros and victory screens though. I guess they didn't want to bother making higher quality versions of the character models like in HWL.

@Meowpheel It definitely a considerable improvement over Hyrule Warriors Legends from what I've seen. I got all of the Master Seals in the missions I played and I was able to promote every character I main, which are Xander, Ryoma, Camilla and Rowan and they have been unstoppable. Who's your main team?

My top four at the moment are: Lianna, Lissa, Azura and Sakura.

Before I got Azura my designated lancer was Hinoka, but I don't really like the pegasus moveset that much. Sometimes I trade Sakura for Niles, and Lissa for Frederick.

I've been trying to use all the characters though, but those are so far ahead that I end up using them a lot. As much as I'd love to use Tiki more, she's in a permanent bench warming position until I manage to max her Awakening and Special badges.

Lissa in particular is a beast. Probably my favorite character so far.

@Meowpheel Lissa and Sakura are my best supports, and Sakura is awesome to farm a lot of materials if you give abilities for her bow. It could also work for Takumi and Niles but... I loved Sakura in Fates so I prefer her (shhh... I plan trading Rowan for her after I finish the story). Lissa hits hard and more importantly: heals when it's necessary so as much as I like Frederick she's more valuable.

I would like to use Tiki too, but yeah, she arrived so late that other characters are far ahead of her. I haven't even seen how good does the dragon look on 3DS. I haven't even unlocked Azura, Oroboro and Niles...

I've to admit that the big reason I keep Lianna around is because she happens to be my highest leveled character because I started the story as her.

I may switch her for Owain once he comes out if his style is good. Just because Owain is Owain.

@Meowpheel While fighting Owain I noticed that he was a clone of Ryouma, and considering Niles, I think he'll remain a clone. But yeah, Owain is going to be an instant main of mine because he is Owain.

Oh well... I guess a clone of previously unique character... Is... More ok?

Ryoma Is supposedly super good anyway.

Now that you mention it, I did notice he had thunder effects during a mission where he was an ally. I didn't question it.

Yup, Ryoma is really strong and the most fun to use to me, so Owain being a clone of him is not that bad.

what's the difference between US special edition and EU limited edition ?
