Distant_Rainbow 12/18/18 1:15:26 AM #158:	Tyranthraxus posted... The stamina system isn't the same penalty as Ogre Battle has. It's complete different paradigm in penalties that affects class changes. Who you can recruit and what areas you can access. You need to use some characters to fight others in order to recruit them however if you overuse those characters your reputation and charisma tank meaning you miss out on secret areas and can't upgrade to high class units. But if you underuse the units they run a very real risk of dying when you're trying to recruit whoever you're fighting. Again, it's not bad design. It's good design that was removed to appeal to a casual crowd of modern gamers. Apart from whatever that charisma and reputation stuff is, sounds similar enough. You can't expect Fire Emblem to approach that concept the exact same way as a different series. And in any case, in your example there's actually a reputation and charisma system that the game surely reminds the player to keep high and how to keep it high, or else bad things happen. Not the same thing as Shadow Dragon at all. It does it well? It did nothing, besides set up content behind weird and novel unlock conditions with no indication thereof whatsoever. How the hell is something so counterintuitive and obscure 'good design'? Or do you think the intuitive thing to think when you encounter an ally with bad stats in Fire Emblem is to go *'sure, let's go invest my limited deployment slots to send this guy out to the battlefield just so I can kill him off for shits and giggles'*? That's not intuitive. That's borderline sociopathic. The only thing it won was creativity points. Nobody praised that feature at all. Experts panned it, and beginners didn't even notice it for the most part or panned it as well if they did notice. Small wonder it's the ONLY mechanic that didn't make a return in the Japan-only sequel which utilized the exact same game engine. Everyone realized it was bad.

Darmik 12/18/18 1:30:07 AM #182:	Classic Resident Evil (and 7) games give you less saves to work with on harder difficulties. They also give you limited resources. Are you guys saying it's cheating if players reload to one of their limited saves if they feel like they've wasted too many healing items or ammo? It makes no sense to me. Saves are often part of the design. There's a clear difference between how Classic and Casual Fire Emblem difficulties handle save states just like those games. Because all of them are easier if you can save more often. The permadeath for units is an extra layer on top of that. It's not the only one. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:914316162] in Hardcore F...

Edit: To use an analogy from gaming, even when you have control of every frame in a tool assisted run, that doesn't make you capable of doing anything in a game, because there are still limitations based off the characters, controls, etc. Let's forget about whether or not I can beat Mayweather given Unlimited attempts and instead focus on exiting groundhog day. Let's say that I have only two exits, one is to beat Mayweather and the other is to fight him, get defeated, and give up, continuing on with the rest of my life known as the guy with no experience who got OHKO by Mayweather. If I accept defeat and move on, I'm no longer within the boundaries of the analogous argument to reset "every time a unit dies" Which is playing classic mode as is intended, for you to accept your mistakes or bad luck and continue on with the defeated unit. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv <cite>Tyranthraxus posted [p:914317596] in Hardcore F...

PhazonReborn 12/18/18 2:24:18 AM #197:	I didn't read all of this topic because fuck that, but are the people that are arguing against Casual mode admitting that if they lose a unit, they "live with the consequences" and keep playing? Don't give me that shit because nobody does that. "Classic" in these games is just a save scum restart fest if you make a bad mistake. I hate the series but Casual mode is fine. --- The Phazon you know and trust since 2004 <cite>PhazonReborn posted [p:914317658] in Hardcore F...

GiftedACIII 12/18/18 2:51:27 AM #200:	Why is there 200 posts in this topic? Anyway all I saw was something about save scumming and I'll just bring up that the IS devs themselves have said they save scum when playing the game, sometimes just save scumming for better level ups. --- </topic> <cite>GiftedACIII posted [p:914318338] in Hardcore F...

A Novel Idea 12/18/18 6:12:19 AM #201:	The devs used an auto-saving feature for Fire Emblem 4. In that game you can save at the start of a turn and reload an unlimited amount of times without losing the save. Slot 1 would automatically update with a save from the start of the current turn. --- "God I really want you to keep posting." "People don't matter to you.
