NeilHOST
I feel like you started with Banjo Kazooie and then you were just like I
GordonHOST
kind of joked and said oh the new Hyrule Warriors you know no Yeah, so there's this new Shadows of Valentia game that came out.
GordonHOST
Shadows of
NeilHOST
Valentia,
GordonHOST
Echoes of Wisdom, Fortune's Weave of the
NeilHOST
Fires.
NeilHOST
It does take quite a lot from Shadows of Valentia.
GordonHOST
That's good.
JohnHOST
One of my favorite things about Fire Emblem, and, like, uh, you know, my, my history with the franchise is kind of off and on.
JohnHOST
There have been Fire Emblem games I haven't really enjoyed, like Shadows of Valentia.
JohnHOST
There have been Fire Emblem games that I absolutely love, like Fire Emblem Awakening.
JohnHOST
Um-
6 MINS LATER
JoshHOST
You know, the weaker weapons...
JoshHOST
They do, but they don't.
JoshHOST
So there was no durability in the game you hated, Shadows of Valentia, but that's because weapons were really more like accessories just for learning like special moves.
JoshHOST
It was different.
David LloydHOST
Yeah, that's true.
David LloydHOST
The worst one was we had an RPG club for Shadows of Valentia, And we had scheduled the date.
David LloydHOST
Oh,
BrianGUEST
that game is so good.
TL FosterHOST
... which we got as a remake.
TL FosterHOST
It sh- Fire Em- Fire Emblem, Shadows of Valentia, which was the last 3DS game.
TL FosterHOST
And I posit is one of the best Fire Emblem games that doesn't feel like a Fire Emblem.
TL FosterHOST
Like, it doesn't, because it's like the second game-
Chris AntistaHOST
And it, it did...
Chris AntistaHOST
Were you at all worried about Fire Emblem when it, the portable scene kind of went away?
TL FosterHOST
So yeah, after Shadows of Valentia, I just didn't know where we were gonna go, uh-
Chris AntistaHOST
Mm-hmm
Alex CulafiHOST
Valentia.
Casey GibsonHOST
But Shadows of Valentia was cool because you would run and you would engage and then you would go into like a mini tactical fight where this is like you go into a fight and I just spam A or I just skip it.
Alex CulafiHOST
Yeah, it's fine.
Alex CulafiHOST
I don't know.
Bobby PeaseHOST
That's it as far as Fire Emblems that I have completed.
Bobby PeaseHOST
I have probably spent the most time, uh, outside of Three Houses in Shadows of Valentia followed by Awakening, and then that's kinda it for me, and now I'm playing Fortune's Weave.
Bobby PeaseHOST
So I'm not nearly as far as Chase has.
Bobby PeaseHOST
I've been trying to wrap up, uh, Dawn Walker and w- getting preparated-
15 MINS LATER
Chase KoenekeHOST
so they better look good.
Bobby PeaseHOST
Yeah, they gotta look good.
Chase KoenekeHOST
Um, like this, this, to me it still doesn't look anywhere near as good as Shadows of Valentia on, on the 3DS.
Chase KoenekeHOST
I still think that kind of-
Eric Van AllenHOST
It's a lot of you can do stuff in town or you can leave town, you can go farm resources, you can go train, you can have meals with people to build rapport.
Eric Van AllenHOST
Uh, you can go in dungeons, uh, which are basically the dungeons from Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia where it turns into-
Jenni LadaGUEST
I was gonna ask if that was the case
Eric Van AllenHOST
...
Eric Van AllenHOST
I think a lot of people might be coming to it from Fire Emblem: Three Houses where everybody has supports with everybody and there's just, like, tons of supports available all the time.
Eric Van AllenHOST
This one, I think in a lot of ways, it, it was interesting.
Eric Van AllenHOST
There w- I think it was a Polygon article actually that, that called attention to how many mechanics in Fortune's Weave hail from, like, Fire Emblem Gaiden and Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia.
Eric Van AllenHOST
And I think as much as there's stuff here that definitely plays off of Three Houses, it's also interesting seeing how much they pulled from older Fire Emblems for, for story and structure and the way that they handle-
NBZHOST
There's
DevinGUEST
also Shadows now as well, everyone's favorite Fire Emblem game.
NBZHOST
Oh, fuck, you're right.
NBZHOST
There's a second one that's really bad that no one played that was, like, among us.
NBZHOST
So the modern era of Fire Emblem, I mean, I would argue it starts with Awakening, right? That's kind of the revival of the series.
NBZHOST
That's when it comes back.
NBZHOST
You get Fates on 3DS, then you roll into the remake of 2 with Shadows of Valentia, and then we get into this kind of real modern era with Three Houses, right? I think Three Houses is a game that brings tons of people into the franchise.
NBZHOST
I think it turns off a lot of people as well.
Eric Van AllenPANELIST
It will eat up time, much like Metaphor: ReFantazio.
Eric Van AllenPANELIST
Uh, and you can go into dungeons, which are a mechanic from Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, uh, the 3DS remake.
Eric Van AllenPANELIST
And, uh-
Kyle HilliardPANELIST
Fire Emblem 2, right?
Perry BurkumHOST
I literally just mean I did it.
Perry BurkumHOST
I tried this on Shadows of Valentia.
Perry BurkumHOST
And I did not like it.
Perry BurkumHOST
And I was like, this isn't fun.
Casey GibsonHOST
But it's not such a focal point, which I like.
Casey GibsonHOST
Well,
Perry BurkumHOST
dude, and also, remember Shadows of Valentia had that, but it was actual gameplay dungeon crawling?
Casey GibsonHOST
That was really cool, dude.
