Fire Emblem Series!

[Hydrohs]

The guy spends his time talking to crows and has a sometimes strained understanding of the contemporary language, so it's understandable why he'd find humor in his mild understanding of the language, as exhibited by his puns.

I understand it as a unique character trait, much like how Lon'qu is gynophobic, Sumia is clumsy, Kellam is almost invisible to everyone, etc.

But where did the crows come from? He just shows up. No explanation at all.

Starting to promote units to second tier. So far I've made Kellam a General, Lissa a War Cleric, Tharja a Sorcerer, and Virion a Bow Knight. Did I screw up bad or am I okay? Also, any recommendations for future units?

You went the same route as me with Kellam and Lissa, I didn't use Tharja and I'd made my Virion into a Sniper, I prefer them to Bow Knights. He was quite good as a Sniper.

Don't know where Henry exactly came from, but Tharja mentions in supports that Henry had traveled with a ton of crows all the time before he joined Chrom.

The reason Henry hangs out with animals so much is he is one of those people that is good with animals, like Sumia. Henry also really wants to be able to fly, which he mentions in Sumias supports and some of his event tile quotes. "If I collect crow feathers, maybe I'll be able to fly if I get enough!" "I saw a guy transform into a raven once, maybe with enough practice..."

(Not the exact wording, but you get the idea.)

And his obsession with puns was added in the localization, I don't think he did that in the japanese version. Unless the fan translators didn't catch it, Henry wasn't really a comedian.

A grave omission from the Sound Test is the credits music. How could they forget that? :/ But then again, I'm thankful they included it at all.

It's something a certain other developer should do....*cough* Game Freak *cough cough*

The credits music was just a collection of other music from the game.

Oh dear lord, I'm back to playing as Micaiah's intrepid group of weaklings.

I better abuse the hell out of the legendary weapons just for the sake of making them useful...

There's enough in her group that are good that you should make it through without issue.

[ParaChomp]

What? Henry's hilarious! Like the dialogue when Cherche's wyvern bites his arm, it's hilarious. The only thing about him that annoys me is that he's voice by Bryce Papenbrook who played the lead in the dub of Eiken. Papenbrook fits Henry well just I can't get Eiken out of my head.

Good thing I gave Micaiah a Seraph Robe. She REALLY needs it.

I don't see how that negates my complaint >_>

Yeah, that always helps. Once she gets her Speed up she'll become incredibly useful.

I don't see how that negates my complaint >_>

But... the credits music is there, because technically there is no credits music, they've just replayed previous tracks.

I ended up liking Henry way more than I thought, liking him more than Ricken, who I thought would end up being my favorite. His puns don't get on my nerves so much, either, and his battle dialogue is nice too. I personally find myself very impressed by the English dub. I won't say it's better than the Japanese audio, since I've not used it much, but I'm definitely impressed.

Hard Mode, though? Wow, it only got more ridiculous as the game went on. Most of the endgame bosses ended up being one-shot by a crit, which was a surprise, but the final chapter? Oh god...Ricken basically defied all probable statistics by dodging over 10 fatal blows(dealing 21 HP at worst) in a row with at least a 50% hit rate.

    Spoiler:- Final Boss Spoilers:

Giving Grima the Ignis and Pavise skills only added to how ridiculous it all was.

Henry was hilarious! What CAWSed you guys to dislike him?!

That.

I hate puns. As a comedian, I cringe everytime I hear one. While some are good, 99.5% of them make me cringe. Henry does have an interesting personality though.

[Tennis_kid]

I find cringe-worthy puns the best; maybe that's why I love him XD
I'm also a fairly serious person most of the time so I know absolutely nothing about comedy, to be honest.

[Icay4321]

Reeking Boxes are the best things to happen since sliced bread (maybe the best thing to happen TO [old] sliced bread?). Seriously, they make for easy grinding in levels and support, and they never seem to re-pay themselves in bullions, as well.

So, you're losing money when you use them?

[Icay4321]

I. Hmm, yeah, no, I have that wrong, I think I meant to say, "...never seem to fail to re-pay..." My bad. The intent is that I don't suffer a loss of gold from doing as such.

Says the one whose username is a pun. Speaking of bad puns, there's an entire thread dedicated to them.

You never fail to seem to repay as the enemies keep dropping items that you can sell which usually makes you a profit when compared to the Reeking Box's cost. The true downside is the constant possibly of losing a man but the more common reason is the decreasing amount uses that your weapons have. Long story short, there are ups are downs; is the sacrifice you make to level up worth it?

Actually, mine's a nickname for a well-known character. Ever hear of Sho Minamimoto? If you haven't then you're so zetta slow.

Also, anyone start to play around with skills a little? I'm thinking about reclassing Lon'qu to a Griffon Rider eventually and grab that Lancebreaker skill, and the Wyvern Rider's Strength +2 is also quite appealing, though I need to get Astra on him first. With Galeforce and Astra, Severa's gonna be one happy merc

Also, any word on triangle attacks?

I made Lissa a sage to get that nice skill of Mag+5 when equipped with a Tome, then I turned her into a Valkyrie after maxing her out as a sage. She now can use fortify to heal the entire map and every to full health.
