[3DS] Fire Emblem Awakening

[Shadow5YA]

Unlike previous FE games where the minimum EXP gain per kill was 1, units get a minimum of 8 EXP per kill in this game (which can still be multiplied by the Avatar's veteran). It does take a while, but if the goal is only to clear the main game and not the DLC postgame then you don't need to grind as much because a perfect skill build with capped stats in every parameter isn't necessary.

Even then, Champions of Yore 1 is still enough to give you a supply of rare weapons and gold to power through the game with high Mt.

[Sides]

Just got the DLC packs that were released today, in europe, and have to say they completely break the game.
Basically you get infinite gold supply from the the golden gaffe and master seals from harvest scramble maps.
I only got them because I thought they give you more DLC characters.. |Well at least you get some funny dialogues.

[Destined_Fate]

Of course they do that as the DLCs are mainly there to prepare you for the DLC stuff, none of it is ever needed for the base game - not even Lunatic/+.

NA fans rejoice in that we got Bonds now!

Well, it's the easiest way if anyone is having too much trouble. Though with pair ups and Rallies it isn't too hard anyway.

Finally bought it alongside the 3ds.

I'm at chapter 13, I just let out some manly tear when "Marth" says everything to Crom.

that was beautifuuuuuuuuuul

[Westlo]

Chapter 10 is the best chapter in the game, that battle, dat music.

Also lol @ this.



So many things wrong with this, it's a T rated game like you know dat ass Cammy in SFIV, it makes it more suggestive, the censor the swimsuit yet leave some of dat ass alone etc.

Nintendo Censors can't handle dat Tharja.

[Kyero Fox]

O-o where is that in the game...

Really lame that they would censor something as simple as a rear bikini shot. That's Nintendo of America for you.

[JohnNiles]

Tharja will put a curse on you if you censor her.

...

I kinda still want that DLC. >.>

Hello guys and gals.

I have this strong intention of buying the game, but I would want to ask a few questions first.

1. Is the game long/does it have a lot of hours of game-play?
2. Post in a Spoiler Tag! Does the game have a content to play on after the main ending? (Like Pokemon's PokeLeague for example)
3. How much chat is there between the characters through the game, how much combat and how much walking around?
4. Are the graphics good and the 3D effect?
5. Overall, would you recommend me the game?

Thank-you very much in front.

[Alchemist007]

Funny thing is, the curtain makes it sexier. I automatically assumed it was a very thin thong that was being hidden. Way to fail Nintendo, never leave sexy content to a professional's imagination

[Xefi]

^ agreed. i think it makes it even more sexier as well...almost
like she's not even wearing any pantsu!

1. Mostly in the form of DLC, but the maps are fun. The main game is about as long as Shadow Dragon, maybe a bit shorter depending on how methodical you are on the maps. I'd say a conservative estimate is at least 40-60 hours, possibly more if you take your time.

2.

Spoiler:

It reverts you to right before the final map, but you can continue playing from there for DLC and the like.

3. It's not a standard RPG, so no walking. You go between areas on an overmap. Chat is done based on cutscenes and bond strength, which increase based on being next to characters in battle. I'd say 90%+ of the game is combat in this regard.

4. I don't use the 3D so won't comment on that, but the graphics are good. Not PS3 level or anything, but you can check the demo or youtube videos for examples of the graphics.

5. If you like strategy games or any previous Fire Emblem, definitely.

but why are the sparkles censored ?

1. I'm almost at 40 hours and I haven't finished the story so a lot of hours and more if you play in hard mode without resurrection. It also depends on your way of playing. If you play with resurrection mode, you will spend less hours because you won't start again some battles and you will take less time in your strategy since you don't care about deaths.
3. Each chapter is a battle and there's some chat before and after each chapter. Also affinity system provides a lot of (optional) dialogues.
There're enough battles with the main story, paralogues, spotpass, DLC,...
There's no walking around.
4. Fight animations are really nice. 3D effect is pleasant but not impressive.
5. Yes! I knew some guys who didn't like much T-RPG but they were sold on this game.

[Haiprbim]

Thank-you both, GDB and kyouray, helps a lot, I appreciate it.

Considering I hardly have enough proficiency in jp, decided to cave in with the EU FE bundle.
I'm sort of disappointed by the translation though, and I'm not talking about the censorship. Whereas they did a good job keeping a fitting speech style for most characters (such like Frederick and Vaike), some lines are dubious at best and I guess it is generalized.

The primary example I found was in chapter 6 cut-scene:

Spoiler for Chapter 6:

After Chrom realized Lucina's gender, the latter says:
"And quite the actress too. Honestly, I'm surprised you didn't figure it out until now."

However, the original jp line is:
"ばれてしまった以上男性の演技を続ける必要はありませんね"
Which can be translated as:
"I guess there is no need to keep acting like a man after being exposed."

Frankly, that radically changes the tone/intent Lucina had towards Chrom. EN version implies Lucina is astonished that Chrom failed to notice her farce, whereas the JP version implies she has to deal with it.
It basically makes me think that Lucina is playing the haughty girl in EN, while she had to shrug it off in JP. Erm what?

I assume a sizable amount of the original script was altered. And whereas censorship is to be expected (kinda), mistranslations like this one are... silly at best.
I don't like to be entitled whatsoever, and I'm quite happy they added dual audio etc. But if they can't really translate at least correctly things like that, it is a fail mark on such aspect, period.

[Destined_Fate]

I loved MU x Cordelia's convo if they're married. If anyone has any doubts about Cordelia moving on from Chrom than they should view this.

Hell, viewing Cordelia(She must be unmarried) x Chrom convo before this also makes sense as well.

Cordelia doesn't disappoint, marrying her was a very awesome decision even if it's very poor or optimization due to Severa being awesome already.

Also, this hilarious image from Summer Scramble between Sumia and Miriel!

Spoiler:

It's from those from Serenes Forest.

[Shadow5YA]

The funny part about the poorly made censor on Tharja's bottom is that with a text box, she looks like she's wearing nothing at all down there. Isn't this even worse?

[GDB]

Or like the Merchant walked in on her and the Avatar in the middle of some fun.

[Kyero Fox]

Is there any other art work of the other girls? or just her.. gonna be pissed if there isnt.
