[sweats] yeah ahaha

Are you sure you aren't just annoyed about the character and got them killed on purpose?

I didn't bring him into the mission just to kill him, he was only a baby! Fresh outta the cradle, he still had the new baby smell and everything! Oh no, I'm a murderer! A MURDERER! I need to build a prison in my town and then place myself into it!

[sweats] yeah ahaha

Don't tell me you're into such disgusting things like hand holding, SB. Surely not!

So what's the deal with the multiple versions?  Is it blatant cash grab fuckery or something actually meaningful?

[Twinwolf]

It's not Pokémon. Each version is a different story, with different characters and different maps. They're different games, pretty much, that share some characters and underlying mechanics.

[Willfor]

Marketing didn't do a very good job of emphasizing that they are two different games that just so happen to meet up to become a third entirely different game if you buy the third route, with all of the content for each of them taking up so much room that there's not really enough of it on the carts to put them together in the first place. I have a bad feeling that the "Ugh, cashgrab" assumption is going to kill a few of their sales.

In other news, despite being a fire emblem fan for years, I am currently unable to pick up a copy, and will probably be very behind the curb.

Also according to an Iwata asks, they put too much stuff into My Castle, so its more like 3+ games total if thats actually the case.

[JoshuaFH]

Aw yeah, I'm so pumped up! Conquest ch10 classic hard mode, first try, no deaths. That had me sweating like a pig there for a while, that was some intense strategizing right there, goddamn. I was so tensed up, it was such a close fight, feeling really proud of myself here.

It's almost as if you're complaining about a non-critical gameplay element.

It's almost as if I'm a shitposter, and shitposting is what I do. Oh wait, I am a shitposter -- the only thing I use the internet for is to complain about video games (and look at pictures of cats.)

So as it turns out the medium-size town I live near has some kind of insatiable appetite for Fire Emblem, as the GameStop there was sold out of both games by 1 PM.

Luckily, I managed to snag download codes. After picking up a 16-gig SD card, since there was no way in hell my 8-gig would cut it, I think I'm ready to roll. I'll just pick up both games tomorrow morning when downloading them won't eat my bandwidth. Which one do you guys think I should play first?

I've accepted the ultimate shame of FE fans everywhere: having a character die and then not reloading the save, just letting them die.

I did that with Aran in Radiant Dawn. Rolf shot him in the face on 3-13, but I was like "hell with that" because I'd been sitting there for an hour and a half watching Nolan and Zihark mow down armies of nameless, faceless cats and birds and Aran was still like level 9, unpromoted

Birthright first, since it's easier so that you can get used to the changed weapon triangle, and the conquest.

[Aklyon]

Play both first, of course

what did they do to my precious weapon triangle

Or are you referring to the removal of weapon uses?
