They forgot to mention that Roy's first game was Melee instead of Sword of Seals. His inclusion in Melee was an advertisement for Sword of Seals in Japan.
Just looked it up, holy shit you're right! That's some pretty cool trivia right there Ragnell. :D
Tyrfing is better.
It was in smash bros trivia
Roy also does higher damage than Marth, which is not only impossible in FE6, but an insult as well. Roy performs better in Melee than his own game!
Hell, I can't think of a single unit in a strategy RPG I've played that underperforms quite like Roy, and I've played Disgaea.
Already covered in a different video.
Lucina's alt.colors in Super Smash Bros 4 are based off of Nowi's, Cherche's, Cordellia's, Tiki's, Lissa's, Tharja's, and Sumia's appearances in Awakening.
Marth's white color is based off of Leif from Thracia 776.
His second blue color in Brawl is based off of his SNES color pallet.
In Sm4sh Marth's second blue color is a mixture of his Melee blue color and SNES colors and his purple color is based off of his Shadow Dragon colors.
Awakening didn't sell well because it's better than the older FE games, because of Casual mode, or any of that. It sold well because it was actually marketed as if it were worth a damn.
THANK YOU! Someone who has finally realized that. You are a god/goddess!
PS. I sometimes see you in the comments section of Verses and TRG videos saying something funny xD (or sometimes serious)
+aquaslash Thanks, I try.
+tsukinoakuma That is really true, before Awakening i never see other FE being that well marketed
+tsukinoakuma Yeah, I said "because they marketed the shit out of it" while watching this video.
+tsukinoakuma those things helped it sell well, aswell as coming out duriing a period where there dry season for games, so it had all attention, th released demo whuch had casual mode in whuch helped tur more people on to the there are games have and still nit risng for intance.
If Casual mode was so controversial, then how the hell did Pheonix mode even become a thing?
sakurai flipping us all off
FE needs sales, even if it requires scum
B. Ekov Unless it's for shits & giggles yes. I can tolerate my little sister playing casual because it's the first turn-based strategy I forced her to play
IG_42 Wow. I honestly pity you for your elitist way of thinking. While I do consider Classic the best experience, your way of thinking is purely pathetic.
B. Ekov This coming from the guy who takes stuff said on the internet seriously?
We need another DYKG Fire Emblem. It's been so long. T_T
I KNOW! and hello grimahim
+ColdRamen Hello lol
+Grimahim They might do another one once FE14 has been out in the US for a while and they've had a chance to learn its secrets.
lol agreed
With fates heck yeah awakening still bai also🌚
Let's go my friends... Together, We Ride !! ^-^/
*raises his sword in agreement*
Stalwarts, unite!
I got the horses!
Hey, you're the music guy! I subscribed to you

"Having the game take place in a real-world modern setting was even suggested."
Oh come on, that would be ridicu-
*remembers SMTxFE*
...oh. OOOOHH.
This game series is soo underrated
At least the series is now getting the recognition that it deserves.
I wish everybody would stop bringing three house every time they are talking about anything

Put it on your resume
Lucky guy
For all of you complaining about casual mode, here are two things you should think about.
Number 1: It's optional! They didn't completely remove permadeath, so if you don't like the idea of permadeath being removed, just don't use it.
Number 2: Think of the context. If casual mode hadn't been included, Awakening might not have pushed enough sales for the series to be continued.
Loads of people I know (and have seen) have played Casual mode and basically have become too scared to try Classic mode, which also makes them too afraid to try another Fire Emblem game. This leads to awkward discussions where I try to talk about other Fire Emblem games and everyone just stares blankly at me.
I get that probably is frustrating. Maybe if the next Fire Emblem game comes out soon and still has casual mode you'll be able to talk with them about it more?
Myra Thompson I want to talk about Marth's games, or Roy's game, or Eirika's/Ephraim's game, or Sigurd's/Seliph's game, but none of my friends would understand. Hell, half of those names would confuse them.
Again, I understand why you're frustrated. I'm just not sure what I should tell you. If they won't try it for themselves, then honestly there isn't much you can do. I'm sure that you could find people to talk about it with online somewhere.
Myra Thompson I have found... maybe two people. Two... on the entire internet.
... TWO.
A Fire Emblem game set on Mars was actually pitched? And it got shot down?!
Why wouldn't you shoot that down it sounds ridiculous
@@rigistroni ridiculous, the demon dragons and dancers allowing their friends to move father or the guy screaming about your money problems oh and the fact that you can summon people with a gun, but the second planet thing, naaah too ridiculous.
@@ShrimpRice yeah that would have failed
I HAVE A VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT FIRE EMBLEM.
I like Ike.
+Samuel M Well, I hope Corrin can live up to his CHAINSAW SWORD AND BECOMING A DRAGON
+Jakiro TheTwinHeadedDragon here's something, he fights for his friends, Corrin fights for revenge of his mother.
Saiyan Gaming well. he fights for his FAMILY and doesnt abandon them at the end of the game
+Jakiro TheTwinHeadedDragon Depends on which run you choose, Revelation, Conquest, or Borthright, I've played all three on my Conquest game.
In all of them. He stays with what you choose as your main family
When you mentioned the FE anime I died laughing.
I still can't get over Marth/Mars scream.
The main meme that emerges from that for me is Gordin's 'But Maaaaaaarrrs!'
I used swordmaster gordin in fire emblem shadow dragon, but all he was was mediocre
@@trey7331 only mediocre?
Did you know...? Fire Emblem was a thing before Fire Emblem: Awakening.
Blue Viper Honestly, he/she is right (I have no idea why I reacted the way I did in my replay). FE was a relatively unknown franchise and suddenly BOOM! Everybody knows about it...or JUST Awakening.
Carbon61 Yeah but she (going with she cuz of Penelope) says it like Awakening was the only one to come to North America. That's not true because everyone (I mean a lot of people) knew about it. Plus, Ike
Blue Viper You completely missed the point...
Carbon61 I guess I did because I don't know what else to say
Carbon61 Awakening is the first FE game I played, but I've known about the series's existence for years dude..... anyone who gives a shit about videogames knows....
As a devoted fan of fire emblem for 10 years, I can say you're REALLY, REALLY missing out if you don't play classic. It gives the game its real meat and makes it all the more memorable, fulfilling, deep, and emotionally engaging. Seriously, it's why I hold the series so close to my heart
Preach it!
Scootaloo It's a balancing act and a decision. You either lose progress or lose a character. You're being punished for letting characters fall either way, whereas in casual mode you can just bum rush and scrape by with everyone dead. It changes how you play,
Awakening is my first bought FE game, and i went classic... on normal difficulty of course :P. So far on cgpt. 8 and I havent lost that many units excrpt for maribelle(ohko by a boss unit in chpt 7DX) and a bowman :)
LyingPrauses Yeah but Normal mode is piss easy... No offense.
Slimy Hipster Play "normal" on fire emblem radiant dawn
I'M SO GLAD THIS EXISTS!
Fire Emblem is such an underrated series, considering it took 13 games for it to sell over a million copies. I guess underrated is the wrong word; I basically just mean I wish it was more successful and well-known.
Well, there are two more characters from FE in Smash Bros. now, so hopefully that can spark a little more interest in the series.
On a side note...
Have any of the GBA Fire Emblem games been released on the Virtual Console? I really want to try them out, but I don't have anything that can play GBA games.
You can just play them on an Emulator, the GBA/DS emulator can Run on any Computer/Mobile phone nowadays.
SelectionCrescimento Good point.
I highly recommend Blazing Sword. It's magic.
Zero Wat i think sacred stones is on virtual console
If you live in Europe FE7 is on the wii u VC.
Gotta say...I think they made the right call on casual mode. I personally don't like the idea of losing characters forever if they die in a game based entirely around luck. Sure, there are some measures you can take to can take to lower the risk, but the risk is there all the same, and then if you don't want to lose them, you'll have to reset and try the chapter again. It's like a Nuzlocke, only less forgiving since there aren't hundreds of other units to replace fallen ones with...and pokemon is less up to chance. I guess the idea worked since Awakening sold really well, and I hope to see it again in future titles.
I can say with no shame that no matter the difficulty, I ALWAYS play on casual.
"in a game based entirely around luck"
Not true, but whatever
I think it's fine to include the feature, since it's not forced on you. But keep in mind, Casual mode takes all the strategy out of it. It means the only thing you need to do to win a chapter is to keep your lord from dying. You can just run through any chapter mindlessly and probably beat it, since player stats are generally higher. Fire Emblem has always been about defeating large armies with your small, elite army, so the goal is to use tactic to keep them from biting off more than they can chew. So, to me, the only justification to casual is if you're doing an insane difficulty level, or if you only care about completing the story.
GreyPikmin334 It's actually based on strategy, not luck.
ElmntNinja
Well, to be fair, there is some luck. Like when an 80% misses or a 20% hits, etc. But the game's all about calculated risk, that's what makes it fun and interesting.
The Actual Unicorn Gundam This. Most people see the random chances as a problem: I see it as one of the characteristics from the series and an element that contributes together with the mechanics to make me love the series.
Man, I love Awakening a lot. But I don't particularly love the older ones I've played since. I haven't been able to get my hands on Ike's games yet though. Hopefully Nintendo will do Gamecube Virtual Console soon...
I loved the older ones but maybe that's because I played them first and was a bit younger
PoR and Radiant Dawn are two of my favorite games of all time (yes, better than Awakening, at least story-wise.)... does that encourage you at all?
***** Well considering I've had several people agree with me on fire emblem videos, I feel like it's a general consensus.
comment chains go something like
"I feel that awakening's story isn't as good as path of radiance or radiant dawn"
"well path of radiance has the best story in the entire franchise so you wouldn't be wrong."
Nedoxu For most long time fans of the series, the low points are considered to be Radiant Dawn and Sacred Stones.
Not saying I agree with these people, but if you frequent any Fire Emblem nut populated Areas these are generally the problem games, not high points.
Path of Radiance is generally well received, but not considered a high point by any stretch of the imagination.
Aside from these mentions, the literal lowest point for the series is probably the Shadow Dragon DS title with the actual highest for most players being the the first English release, Fire Emblem.
***** Are you european? cause I read somewhere that the GBA Fire Emblem was on wii U in europe, but here in america it isn't :(
Lol. You cant find a recent Fire Emblem video without finding people who argue over Casual/Classic mode. Then theres the seemingly select few who don't care either way. Heck. Phoenix mode is coming for Fates. Your units just come back. It really shouldnt come to insults, its just skill level. Are you a good strategist? Classic Mode. Do you make mistakes and don't wish to be punished too severely? Casual Mode. Do you lack a tactical bone in your body/do you want to enjoy the story? Phoenix mode. Sure theres obvious inferiority here but theres no need to rude and point it out. Besides. Theres difficulty on top of that. Lunatic Mode is kind to no one. Someone in Phoenix mode can help develop strategies for a particularly hard map. Cooperate on these things people. We aren't Call of Duty fans xD
I wish there were more Fire Emblem fans like you, good sir/ma'am. I agree with you 100% on your opinions.
:)
+TheAj1028 'do you want to enjoy the story?' good question so allow me to list out every character who's death causes you to lose out on the main plot.
and that's every character who's death causes you to lose out on the main plot. every Fire Emblem game is made so that no character's death will cause you to lose out on the main plot, i tested this myself by allowing Sumia to die on the very chapter you recruit her in and she still slugged Chrom in the face later on.
characters who are important to the plot don't die when they are defeated in battle, sure you can't use them in battle again (at least until your next playthrough of the game which in my opinion is a better way of bringing your characters back to life than resetting all the time) but they'll still appear in cutscenes so you won't lose out on anything that has to do with the main plot. as for support conversations they can just be looked up online (and with the GBA games some characters take so long to get the many support points they need before you can access their support conversation that unless you're super patient you're better of just looking them up online. i don't care that Roy and Thani are one of my most favorite pair in the series i'm not waiting forever for them to fall in love).
if you don't want to play classic mode that's fine i'm not gonna force anyone to try it but when you give out your excuses for why you won't try the older games of the series just because they don't have a casual mode don't say you're worried about losing out on the story as your reason because it just isn't the case.
+TheAj1028 the reason for all the criticism towards casual mode has nothing to with that mode, rather it has to do with the mindset that many fans, especially newcomers, develop after playing that mode.
sometimes it seems that nearly the entire fan base has this mindset that 'Fire Emblem without casual mode isn't worth playing'. i've played the older games of the series and many of them are very good, despite the lack of casual mode they are well worth playing. i take it as an insult towards something i'm very passionate about that so many people have this mindset.
i'm not saying that veteran fans who act like snobby elitists and go around being hostile towards newcomers are in the right (honestly i find those kinds of people irritating) but i don't think newcomer fans are any better when think that the older games of this series aren't worth playing just because they don't have an option to remove all semblance of a challenge.
+Fidens Libertas The fact that you don't lose any plot besides support conversations in Awakening is actually why I made my second playthrough casual. I liked the idea of perma-death. It adds weight to the story and adds a lot more potential head-cannon (which is an important part of Waifu Simulator: Awakening). When I found Severa, I didn't know who her mother was until I remembered she had died a while back in a dumb move that almost cost both the mother's and the father's life. The father, who barley survived, I never used again. I thought it was really sad that even in the past, Severa still had a dead mother. Until I recruited her and her mother magically came back in a text scene establishing Severa was from the future, only to leave again. Kind of killed the mood.
I kind of do wish classic mode was a bit more punishing. It adds replayability if you don't cheat and reset all the time.
+Potius Mori if you want classic mode to be more punishing check out Mystery of the Emblem. as far as playable characters go Marth is the only one needed for the main plot, some other characters do have some roles in the main plot but it is so minor that the main plot can still be told with Marth alone. still if you want the entire main plot the characters you need to keep alive are Julian, Minerva, Sirius, Sheeda and Marrich. also, to get the good ending in Mystery of the Emblem you need to get the 5 jewels of the Shield of Seals.
also, the thing about not resetting all the time is that you'll finish the game faster.
"Casual mode sucks, FE needs permadeath"
"omg this one random dude died, better softreset"
*****
Wich is something special
+Gideon van Steenbergen Yeah I know there like FUCK CASUAL.....btw im softreseting if someone dies. Hypocrites lol
+Gideon van Steenbergen Not that it isn't hypocritical, but I personally just consider it a game over. Restarting the chapter is more of a punishment than just losing the unit for the rest of the chapter, and FE can get so hard in some games that one death can ruin your play-through anyway. Major props to anyone who does though ( +Fidens Libertas ).
CobalionRider: Squall Agreed I was just saying that for people who dismiss casual like its the worst thing to happen to Fire Emblem and hate on people who use it, like its just an option and people take things so serious about it XD. I agree with you though 100%
at least classic takes skill
"Lyn's story, is mandatory"
well that surprisingly rhyme...
Actually Marth's name is pronounce as "Marth" because it's an intentional corruption of the name Mars. While Marth is a great warrior and eventually conquers an entire continent, he is actually very kind, desires peace and hates fighting, and his name is supposed to signify this. It was pronounced as "Mars" in the dub of the anime because of a simple error. In Japanese there is no "th" sound, instead there's an "s" sound, and that's why his Japanese name, Marusu, is pronounced as such. Marth is the correct and intentional pronunciation.
Yes I'm a nerd. I don't need anybody else to tell me that.
Ex. Aerith to Aeris
Or maybe they intended his name to be Mars all along and somewhere in the way they decided Marth sounded better for western audiences...
Nah
Good because I guess Sailor Marth would be weird.
Fire emblem: *exists*
Smash bros fans: you weren't supposed to do that
lol the controversy over casual mode is nothing compared to phoenix mode =p
True the game will be so FFFFUUUUCCCCKKKKED now.
+GamingTranceSeer Really? I don't even hear people talking about phoenix mode.
Oh yeah... I forgot it existed. Do people actually use it?
Classic is best mode. Fact.
I haven't heard an uproar about Phoenix mode. I guess any reasonable fan of the series would just ignore it and play classic mode.
Its only used in Conquest, have you even played Hard/Classic in it?
You know what's awkward? I met people who despise the series now since it got so much love in the new Smash Bros.
But actually, you know what? The series deserves it.
It deserves the hate or the love from Smash Bros?
JellybellyWaffles Deserves to get love in Smash. (Well except for awakening.)

I'd love to see a Wii U Fire Emblem. Hell, even a Fire Emblem Warriors would be awesome. I mean Hyrule Warriors was very dedicated to the original source's characters, settings, items, etc.
I so want this to happen.
They are doing that FireEmblemX Shimi Gami Tensei
Daouda Diop
*Shin Megami Tensei
yea that game is funn
I wouldn't. Only because I don't want to buy a Wii U
I still can’t believe they haven’t made a second vid on Fire Emblem
Fire emblem is hands down one of my favorite series' ever, and seeing this in my sub box was like christmas.
I love Fire Emblem but I find it so difficult!
So much so that I thought Lyn's story WAS the main story...
it wasnt
you can skip all of them and play awakening and catch up, the references are so many, it gives you the basic past of the story line of why things are happening. and it somewhat has the same plot as the first game.
***** I finished Awakening last year and loved it!
That's what made me want to go back and play the earlier titles :)
I have been finding FE7 and Shadow Dragon tricky but I hope to finish them soon.
***** -sobs profusely- lynnnn
*****
Well...it's unclear :p. But yeah, basically everyone from FE7 got fucked over in some way in FE6. They're either dead, dying, missing, or just fucked up with very few exceptions.
I will admit. This series is one of my favorites of all times. Even the least popular ones kept me playing them over and over. My first one would have to be Sacred Stones, which stays at my favorite to this day.
More of these!! There's definitely a huge amount of facts for 3H alone, plus everything thats come out since this vid premiered
I'm happy awakening includes casual mode because that was my first fire emblem game and casual mode got me used to the game. I don't use it when I replay the game but it was very helpful for my first time playing.
yeah it helps the game reach a wider audience without alienating the longtime fan base
When I played Three Houses, I did Casual Mode too to get used to the game. I still use Casual Mode since I don’t want to get punished harshly
Fire Emblem 7 is easily my favorite game of all time. The story and character development was just fantastic.
No it wasn't
Thank you for doing one on such an awesome and underrated series!
Am I the only one who recognizes the existence of Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon for the DS??
I absolutely love it :P
Had it since it came out. Hated it because all I could do was compare it to Sacred Stones, my first Fire Emblem game, and think about all the things it did worse.
Want it can't find it would play since no nes or emulator so no FE 1
+C.A.T The Exalt You could always buy it off of the E-Shop on the Wii U...
Vahe Asatryan Worst game in the series, alongside revelations.
Finally, FE7 was my shit in school, I've been playing it religiously every year and I'm grateful it introduced me to the series.
There's also the two brothers in Fire Emblem named Cain and Abel. Cain has a higher crit chance but lower speed. Abel has higher Movement but lower constitution. Now who here can think of two brothers, one who has displayed higher physical strength, including toward his younger brother, and one who moves faster but doesn't make it far enough to be considered important? That's right. Mario and Luigi.
+Alex Leonardi Cain and Able are not brothers. stat wise Cain has higher speed while Able has higher strength, movement is the same for these 2 as they are the same class (unless you're counting Able being pre-promoted in Mystery of the Emblem which isn't a fair way to compare their movement stats) and finally constitution is never featured in any of the games that these 2 appear in unless by constitution you meant weapon level (a stat that was removed in the 4th game of the series and never returned) then you're wrong there as well since whether Able is better or not is different between book 1 and book 2 (and it's not really a stat that matters too much).
***** Just looked it up. You are correct. I got it mixed up by accident. Turns out though they are two similarly-named characters that were brothers.
XD yeah mario and luigi
+Morafo Regnos not bros
+Fidens Libertas You got Cain and Abel are switched btw.
OMG Yes! Fire Emblem
I've been waiting for a Fire emblem one, thank you!
God, what a stomach-churning feeling it was when you played your first Fire Emblem and realized death was permanent...
I remember my first Fire Emblem death. It was in Path of Radiance, I lost Boyd early on and had to listen to his heartbroken little brother talk about how he never came back from battle. :(
When I was younger, the game over screen in FE7 was one of the most terrifying and depressing things I had ever seen :(.
Kai Crowley Ah fun times seeing kids die without knowing where they were and then beat the game learning they died and never played again... (I MISS YOU TINNY!!!)
Those people who use causal mode: FOOLS. My units will survive!
Look I used casual mode because I was new to it
Fun fact here that they didnt mention: Fire Emblem was Adolf Hitler and is Barack Obamas favourite game
........ *grabs knife* im done with life
Holy crap that is very interesting! Thanks for the fact!
Wake up America
bullshit
Fire Emblem wasn't released, even only in Japan, until 1990. Adolf Hitler died at the end of WWII, around the mid 1940's. he couldn't have played it ~45 years before it was made
tubefan90000 Shut up you neck beard
fire emblem is one of my favourite series THANKS FOR MAKING THIS!
This series is AWSOME!!!
I've played through a good number of fire emblem games, but personally i think the best of them all would be path of radiance (and radiant dawn as a close second), it was the first one i played and I'm glad it was. It really sucks that it and radiant dawn are so expensive, so a lot of people won't get to experience these masterpieces :(. What are your guys' favorite FE games?
Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem ~Heroes of Light and Shadow~ (or FE12), with Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War (FE4) following very closely behind.
I really want to play Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn, but I'll need to sell of my kidneys just to buy them.
Ocsttiac It's good to hear that New Mystery of the Emblem is that good, but it always seemed kinda odd to me since half of it is a remake of remake, and then with the previous entry Shadow Dragon for DS being a 2nd remake of that first half so it's almost like a 3rd remake and now my head hurts.
MrPiGuy It's a remake of half of a game which the first half was a remake... yeah, it's confusing.
But it's really good, because it took what was wrong with Shadow Dragon and fixed a lot of it. It even breathed life and personality into what were very boring and lifeless characters. Oh, and the Avatar in that game was much more fun to use.
Oh, and Katarina. I love Katarina.
Ocsttiac Oh i thought awakening was the first to use the avatar. I'm playing through the original shadow dragon on famicom right now, so i'll have to play that one next to see how much better it is haha.
Path of Radiance as well.
We need another one of the Fire Emblem DYKG. Because we love Fier Ermblrm, is me favourte srries evarsz!!1!11!!!
Ysssz! pLox111!0n3
*fiya emburem
Hope you guys are working on the part 2 of this DYNG about FIRE EMBLEM.
Great video.
I've been looking forward to this for SO LONG! Fire Emblem Awakening is my favorite game of all time.
"Oh crap, this might not sell... let's just throw in EVERYTHING and hope for the best."
"...Oh god, we broke records O_O;;."
absolutely love this series, path of radiance and radiant dawn are my favorites (PoR was my first fire emblem game) however sacred stones comes in at a strong second with awakening as my third, anyway I just love this series and hope it continues for a very long time
+Sephiran Greil (Duke of Persis) Awakening is in my top three favorite Fire Emblems, along with Radiant Dawn and Genealogy of the Holy War. :;D
There's Been a New Sonic DYKG Video every year since DYKG first started. Please keep it up. If there's one Next Week, it could Celebrate the Premiere of Sonic Boom
Great video. I didn't know Awakening was meant to finalize the series. Glad it surpassed sales expectations!
There should be a Did You Know video on the each arc of the Fire Emblem series, starting with Archanea. There should also be a Did You Know Fire Emblem Mythology video.
why does Nintendo think us westerners cant handle hardcore game play in the Japanese version of the game
Well they add causal mode on Awakening for example so that's a good reason why they would think we can't handle "there" games. There is a lot of sucky players out there LOL
right but no doubt there are sucky players in Japan who cant handle some of the games
thegingergamer it's just the demographic. Casual includes more casual players who are able to buy and play the game, while the "better" players get normal. As for difficulty, I've been told that the harder difficulties are "sneeze and you die, permanently"..that's just no fun.
That's why you import.
I feel its a matter of taste.
From what I heard (Not assuming this is the same for every single person) Japanese gamers like precision, do everything right or you lose kind of games where westerners more so like 'get such and such done then you'll find out what happens next'
So a lot of Japanese players would enjoy having extremely punishing games where a lot of westerners would want to finish the story and if they couldn't get past chapter two they'd more than likely drop the game and never pick it back up again.
FINALY! I have been waiting for this episode! ^^ Thank you!
I never knew that Fire Emblem might have ended, that would brake my hart. :(
Got to love Fire Emblem
I dont get why people keep complaining about casual mode like they were forced to play it, cmon lets choose classic and stop bitchin about, believe me its not so hard to do
+Fidens Libertas me I just wanna enjoy a game without breaking down so I play casual cause I can't think strategy
+Fidens Libertas me I just wanna enjoy a game without breaking down so I play casual cause I can't think strategy
+Kira Smith first off let me make it clear i'm not very good at communication, in fact i struggle with it. my social life is such a confusing mess for me that i don't even know what it is or if i even have one.
with my poor communication skills i may not have used the best of words in that old comment of mine but in the months that have passed since then i've managed to think about it and i think i've got a grasp on what words to use to better get across what i'm trying to say, also my opinion concerning casual mode has changed a bit since then. so here goes.
i don't care if people play casual mode. i do think classic mode is better and gives a far richer gameplay experience but i won't force anyone into it. there are a few things however that bother me concerning this whole casual vs classic mode thing.
first, some people seem to say that classic mode isn't worth playing (again i have poor communication skills so i may be misunderstanding what people are saying) or at the very least they seem to be saying stuff that implies that they think that casual mode is by default better than classic mode and that in no way whatsoever can classic mode ever be better than casual mode. some people prefer classic mode and some people prefer casual mode, neither of them are better than the other because it all comes down to personal preference. i enjoy Fire Emblem for the gameplay so naturally i prefer classic mode.
the second reason this bothers me is that most, not all but most, of those introduced to this series through casual mode refuse to try out the older games of the series and their reason is of course lack of casual mode. the reason this bothers me is that a lot of these people seems to call themselves huge Fire Emblem fans even though they've only played Awakening and never played any of the previous games in the series (bet they can't even tell me which was the first game in the series to feature the weapon triangle, that feature hasn't been around since the first game). another reason why this bothers me is that i don't see how a lack of hand holding makes the older games of the series not worth playing, not that all those older games are good but even with the lack of casual mode many of them are great and well worth playing. not only are most of those older games great but in my opinion some of them are even better than Awakening (Awakening's many flaws is a different topic so i won't go into them here).
the third reason why this bothers me is that going off what i said about how many who are introduced to the series through casual mode never try out the older games of the series, well this leads to another problem where a lot of people say that Awakening is the best game in the series and while which is best is a matter of personal preference they shouldn't say it's the best unless they've played most, not all, but most of the games in the series.
the forth and final reason why this bothers me is that i've heard plenty of arguments justifying not playing the older games of the series just because they don't have casual mode and they're very stupid arguments that i have counterarguments for. let me give you all of them (please note that i'm not considering Awakening and Fates with these counterarguments).
stupid argument: if my characters die then i won't be able to enjoy the story.
my counterargument: characters who are important to the main plot don't die when defeated in battle. you won't be able to use them in battle again but they'll still appear in cutscenes.
stupid argument: if my characters die then i won't be able to enjoy their support conversations.
my counterargument: only Binding Blade, Blazing Sword, Sacred Stones and Path of Radiance features support conversations, that's less than half the games in the series and every support conversations can be looked up online. i don't know about Path of Radiance but for those other 3 games while some support conversations can be acquired rather quickly some take so ridiculously long to get that they're not really worth getting during gameplay and you're better off just looking them up online.
stupid argument: resetting all the time sucks and makes it take forever to beat these game.
my counterargument: then don't reset, it's less of a pain to bring your characters back to life by finishing the game and starting a new one. not to mention there's no requirement to finish the game with every characters alive. you can even look up every possible endings of every characters online and it is canon that every characters survive. if
you're seriously making that big a deal out of trying to keep every characters alive then you're clearly taking these games more seriously than you should.
stupid argument: the older games of the series cost too much so i can't play them.
my counterargument: that is a good argument but only for Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn. Shadow Dragon was never too popular so i doubt it would cost much. Blazing Sword and Sacred Stones cost less than 10$ each on the virtual console and the other games of the series weren't localized and regardless of your views on emulation for games that were never localized i think that's a worthy exception for emulating an English rom patch of these games because i don't see how a language barrier is a good reason to not be able to play great games.
Uh I'm not great socially either so I think there was a misunderstanding somewhere .....I just wanted to join the conversation....but uh dang your thorough so uh I 2 would play the older games but I have none of the systems I can't find them and barely know how to work a computer but then I would be sobbing mess of a human bean if I did get them cause the failure would be great but the reward would also be great so yeah
+Kira Smith here's 5 strategies to minimize the deaths of Fire Emblem characters.
1. Attrition: this strategy is to play defensively and fight with counterattacks. this works best with enemies that don't move like most bosses. if the boss can kill you in 2 hits but can't double then instead of attacking only to get counterattacked then killed on the enemy's turn you can simply wait next to the boss, then on the enemy's turn the boss will attack followed by your counterattack and you'll live to see your next turn, if your second attack will kill the boss then go for it, if not then either heal or make your character fall back while another moves up to counter the boss's next attack, keep this up until the boss is weak enough that you can kill him with your next attack. a battle of attrition works well with enemies that don't move but for enemies who do move we have to resort to the following strategy.
2. Luring: this strategy works similarly to Attrition but now we take the enemy's movement into consideration. put your characters within the attack range of a few enemies but make sure your characters doesn't take too many hits so they'll survive. once the enemy has been lured in it's time for our next strategy.
3. Swarming: once the enemies have closed in on you you swarm them with your characters. of course we want to swarm effectively so we'll use our next strategy.
4. Weakening: you attack enemies while taking their capabilities for counterattacking into consideration. you chip away at the enemies' HP with Archers, Mages and characters with high enough defense that they won't take too much damage from counterattacks (in fact, not being worried about your characters taking non-lethal damage is somewhat necessary for all these strategies to work). for our final strategy we'll combine Attrition with Weakening.
5. Choking: find a gap about 1-2 spaces long and block it with characters that have high defense. use Attrition with incoming enemies and have range attackers like Archers and Mages help with killing the enemies.
for these strategies to be as effective as possible there are 2 things that are needed, patience and precision. since you're mostly playing defensively you must be patient yet every move you make must be precise in order to achieve the desired results.
you also need to learn the math behind these games but it's simple enough that a third grader could figure it out. damage is calculated by ATK - DEF or RES (weapon triangle adds and removes a few points, how it does so differs between games) then you have to compare at the AS (attack speed) stat to see if your character will double attack finally you have to look at the CRIT stat, high LUCK characters have less chance of taking a critical hit though it's usually better to just snipe such an enemy from a safe distance.
i recommend practicing these strategies on the SNES version of Mystery of the Emblem since it doesn't feature the weapon triangle making other aspects of Fire Emblem strategies more significant.
This is such a fantastic and underrated series. I still have yet to play the 5th game, one day........one day........
ALSO I WAS SUPER SPOOKED!!!
If you want to play the 5th game... Prepare for rage... Lots and lots of rage.
I enjoy the rage. Helps me sleep at night haha
The Game Bois So you played yet? Also you got a nice sleep
Thinking we need a 2nd one of these :)
PLEASE do a part 2! I'm BEGGING you!
fire emblem 7 was the best
+Nycro personally i think Fire Emblem 7 is the second best. i think Fire Emblem 4 is the best.
while Fire Emblem 7 was great having a really good story and flawless gameplay other than this it didn't really do anything to wow me.
with Fire Emblem 4 while there were a few, easily forgivable flaws, it overall had a much better story and unlike Fire Emblem 7 i feel it went the extra length to really leave an impression.
although it's difficult to say whether Fire Emblem 4 should be compared to any other game in the series due to the many ways it is unique and different from the rest of the series.
Wanted to like but had 7 likes
+Nycro So true I loved the Black Fang so much! And Lady Lyndis
I like casual mode, its the only reason i bought the game, i dont like perma death
Well then, that locks you out of the majority of the series.
I play classic cuz it ups the difficulty, but I don't understand why so many fans get mad at people for liking casual mode. Everyone has different tastes after all. :) And at the end of the day we al love the same game! ^w^
Jacob Kusmenko I can tell you why I don't like it: All my friends who got into Fire Emblem through Awakening played Casual mode, and now they're all too scared to play another Fire Emblem game, and it really makes me sad that Awakening is their only FE experience.
And I've found this to be a trend with many other people.
If you actually plan your moves, you don't need to be reckless and play on casual mode.
kind of sad if you ignore all those games because of that. easy mode is in the series for a reason. casual mode changes the way you play the game because units become necessary sacrifices to quick. most awesome moments i had with the series were characters near death that dogded 5 attacks with around 75% Acc and lived plus other characters come in and save them.
still proud Mia could pull something like that and Nephenie tanked and saved the game for me more then once.
at some point you should lose those training wheels. believe me the games become even more engaging this way. at least give it a try.
i've been waiting for this one for so long. THANK YOU!!!
Finally, I've been wanting this one for a long time.
yay, wallid :D
Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn is still my top favorite FE game of all time. Sacred Stones comes damn close, but the story and characters for Radiant Dawn were so good that I'm not sure that any other Fire Emblem game is ever going to quite measure up the same way for me.
crzymn246 To be honest I think Radiant Dawn was the weakest. In my opinion of course, I am not disregarding yours.
The way how they constantly switched armies never got you attached to their growths. Plus how the enemies grew a lot and were constantly stronger than you kept forcing you to use the "EXP sponges" as I like to call them. Sothe, Black Knight, Nailia, Volug, etc. The units that were supposed to get stronger but are weaker at first hardly have time to raise themselves so your stuck with just mediocre units at the end of it.
***** The story was my favorite part. I thought the switching armies was great, because it made the game not so cut-and-dry "we're good they're bad" like most of the FE games tend to be. I felt it added real tension to the game because the stats carried over and you had to carefully position your units so that when your army fought the "bad guys," your current characters didn't get killed. And because I liked the characters, I also felt conflicted about fighting them. First time I've ever felt that way about an enemy army that is usually, in most FE games, just made out of expendable cannon fodder with the exception of that level's boss.
And the EXP sponges are only sponges if you use them all the time. Sure there are many of them, Micaiah, Sothe, and Ike just to name a few. But I see so many playthroughs that used Soren, but I literally did not use him except when the mission forced me to. For me the obvious sponges were Ike, Micaiah, Tibarn (lol Tibarn could kill an entire army on his own, archers or no archers) and Shinon. My EXP sponges changed every game because I changed the characters and support options every playthrough. One game my strongest non-main character was Jill, of all people. The next, it was Fiona. The characters that are weakest in the beginning DO have stronger stat growth if you put the time into getting them kills. It takes a lot of extra time when plotting your moves, but it's worth it.
Not saying the game is perfect, or that it's even the best, but that's the reason I like it so much. It was thematically like most FE game, but it broke out of the standard formula without sacrificing the thematic elements that make FE games so enjoyable. (And the reason I hate FE Fates. The main storyline is terrible and I don't like how they switched away from a western high-fantasy setting.)
+crzymn246 lolol noobs my favorite is fire emblem fates git rekt m9 you can't even debate it lolz!
+crzymn246 Sacred Stones was terrible. Radiant Dawn was good, but PoR > RD.
+fangiscool1 It wasn't terrible. That's your opinion but I will respect it. But I never played PoR all the way through so I can't say I liked it as much.
hell yes my favorite series is finally getting one of these
been waiting for you to do this one for years DYKG :D
About Fire Emblem 64: Shozo Kaga mentioned in an interview in January, 1999 that after Seisen No Keifu, he intended to make a third title in the Akaneia saga:
"After Genealogy of the Holy War was completed, the theme of the next game was considered immediately. In fact, we had originally wanted to return to Archanea, the stage of Mystery of the Emblem. However, although we intended on this direction from the very beginning, during the preliminary preparations, we realized it was too ambitious and difficult to do with the Super Famicom [SNES] hardware... If possible, we'd like to do it for new hardware." - Shozo Kaga, Fire Emblem Treasure, Jan. 1999
Due to technical problems, he abandoned such plans in favor of another Super Famicom release, Fire Emblem: Thracia 776. In addition, while Miyamoto has worked on Intelligent Systems games before, he has never been involved in the development of a Fire Emblem game, which makes his statement about its development odd. It's likely he learned this while working on Super Mario RPG 2, which later turned into Paper Mario, the game which he was a prodcuer for.
Also, on Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance linking with the Fuuin No Tsurugi: While it is not possible to link the two in the western release, it is possible to link Fire Emblem and/or Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, which unlocks special trial maps in Path of Radiance, depending on which version you decide to link up.
Other than that (and the slightly shortened quote regarding Advance Wars' influence in localizing Fire Emblem), this is somewhat accurate. I covered this in the past, along with more of the series history in the Fire Emblem: Western Retrospective two years ago.
Um... Actually, the anime was based on fire emblem ONE. Neither of the two episodes contained any elements of FE3's new story. FE3 just starts off with a remake of fire emblem 1.
Well, it was technically made to promote FE3, so his statement is kinda true.
Pretty sure the anime's subtitle in Japanese was "Mystery of the Emblem," which was the title of the third game. It only got scrapped two episodes in anyway, so they were probably going to go through Mystery's abridged retelling of the original game before adapting the sequel.
It's more based on FE3's first book than FE1, mainly because it actually contains music from FE3's second book and it omits the same characters FE3 omitted from FE1, such as Wrys and Darros.
+Ocsttiac Still, it is a remake of Shadow Dragon and the blade of light. So not Mystery of the Emblem.
Acsilverfish360 It still is. Half of Mystery of the Emblem is still technically Dark Dragon and Blade of Light.
Finally you guys did Fire Emblem! Now please do the Tales series!
Everytime I hear the Fire Emblem theme I get goosebumps.
I had no idea that fire emblem was struggling before awakening was released maybe that is why radiant dawn is worth $60 at GameStop
60$? I wish I could get it that cheap! Every time I recommend somebody the FE games for the GC or Wii, I only find very expensive ones...
radiant dawn for $60....sounds like a dream
A wii game at 60$ is cheap?
1)Thats the default price for when game where still realeased.
20 60$ is NOT cheap.
Justin Briand It is cheap when it comes to games like this that aren't sold in stores anymore and somewhat rare in general. And I was just making fun of the high prices by calling 60$ for this cheap.
Raidoton Ok. It's been a long time since I bough a game at ''full'' price. Or even just a console game in general.
GOD DAMN, A MODERN DAY FIRE EMBLEM, I DONT CARE ALIENATED IT MAY BE; BUT I WOULD LIKE A FUTURISTIC FIRE EMBLEM.
Ok, well--- not completely, maybe, like, a mixed future between technology and magic, maybe two kingdoms who constantly fight because one upholds technology and science and the other living with magic.
--- would be cool.
There are a lot of other games that take the strategy of FE and retheme it. XCOM for example I've found is similar because you use unique characters and they die permanently.
Did Tokyo Mirage Sessions do this? I wouldn't know, I don't closely follow either series (but I have been wanting to get Fates since release).
No, not really, it's more of Shin Megami Tensei with fire emblem characters, not modern day Fire Emblem. Like, with guns and tanks.
SOLAr UniVERSE Gotcha.
Have you played FE3Hs? There's a level/organization with this theme to it.
Now here's an episode I've been waiting for.
fire emblem is a series that is great and needs a lot more love
out of all of this, I got: MARIO RPG 2 WAS GOING TO BE A THING!?!?!?!?!
The Lazy Eyebrow Reviewer today we call it paper Mario
Geneology of Holy Wars is my personal fav though
I love this, advance wars and fire emblem are close to my heart, thank you
*sniff*
I started up this game again about three days ago, when I had nothing else to play. It's so fun, I forgot how much I love the gameplay! :D
I'm not that much of a Fire Emblem fan, so maybe I shouldn't be saying this, but I really don't understand the controversy with the easier modes. If people don't like it, they can just play on Classic! I don't see the problem. Plus, more casual gamers get to play FE too.
i don't care if people play casual or classic mode nor do i care if people like Awakening or not but it infuriates me when people say that Awakening is better than older games of the series just because those older games don't have casual mode.
which Fire Emblem game is better is a matter of every Fire Emblem fan's personal preferences so i have no problem with people liking Awakening more than older games of the series but people shouldn't really be saying it's better just cause it has casual mode especially when you consider the flaws that Awakening has like bland map designs (not that they're all bad but most of them are) and poorly executed game mechanics (and there are plenty of other flaws but i don't want this comment to be too long. if you want to know about the bigger flaws in Awakening check out a video by Mangz called 'What Awakening Did Wrong').
also i generally dislike casual loving Awakening fanboys because they're complete assholes. even though i don't chastise anyone for playing casually or liking Awakening some of them have come up at me and called me an elitist anyway just cause i prefer classic mode and don't like Awakening and it's not just me i've seen this happen to others as well.
i don't have any issues with casual mode itself but i find it deplorable to see what the fan base has become because of it.
It's probably because us whom played fire emblem from the start had to learn the hard way to play the game effectively, and some of us like to bitch that you guys got a choice for your first game and we didn't. Kind of like when people complain about how one task got easier over time for someone else than when we did. It is not anger that you got an easier mode, it is fustration that we didn't.
Because now that there's no difficulty barrier, the fanbase has been usurped by weeaboos who literally don't care about gameplay and treat it like a dating sim.
I never liked Fire Emblem, but now I hate it because it brought a ton of weebs into the greater Nintendo fanbase, leading to shit like getting a bunch of obvious waifu characters into Smash Bros.
CaptainTinTyrant preach it brother preach it!
awakening was the first fire emblem game i ever played and i tried classic mode to get a taste of what fire emblem was really like. i soon found out i was terrible at thinking ahead and tried again on casual mode, learning from every defeat (miscalculation, enemy/ally neglect, poor luck etc.). i want to play classic mode now, but the completionist in me wants to get every support conversation unlocked and the DLC maps cleared, something that could be seriously hampered by classic mode
Why does no one talk about FE8? I only just got into Fire Emblem and this game is amazing and in my crazily honest opinion looks better than even the Awakening and Fates games. I can't believe how beautiful the GBA games are for this series, the animations, the character designs, the visuals. Also the combat and crits look cooler.
+Greg Allan Most fe fans now have only played awakening and fates lol. Just give them some time.
Honestly I prefer FE7, but sacred stones wasn't bad either
+Greg Allan Couldn't agree more. Then again, Sacred Stones was the first one I played, so I've definitely got some bias. The combat definitely looks a lot better though. I respect that they're trying to update the graphics, but it's really not leaving much room for crazy animations, like the whirling top of death that was a warrior crit.
+Greg Allan I completely agree. My very first game was FE7, and it still remains my die-hard favorite of the entire series. That being said, I love ALL Fire Emblem's.
I particularly LOATHE how Generals went from looking like badass behemoths, to fat masses of round armor. Where's the intimidation?
I KNOW. The Generals in Awakening drive me crazy because of how annoying they look. And I miss the crazy crits.
+Greg Allan Been a fan since the GBA days myself. Fav game was the DS game Shadow Dragon which was mainly because I was so hype for it do to Marth being the entire reason I got into Fire Emblem in the first place. I did watch the anime and I wanted to play that game. It was amazing to play a remake.
Lyndis was my first "Hero" class in the whole FE franchise and will forever be special to me. :)
FINALLY!!!!!!! Took them long enough... I've been asking for this episode for how long...
>I'm such I diehard fire emblem fan
>only played awakening
+PK Nuke you have no idea how depressing it is that what you just said accurately describes more than half of the Fire Emblem fan base.
+Squidward Tentacles You are going have a hard time to find a copy of Radiant Dawn since that game is rare and expensive.
Gatekeeping in comment form.
Facts lmao
Replace that with three houses or the horrible thing that is heroes and you describe 75% of the modern fanbase.
You 100% can skip Lyn’s story, as well as deactivate tutorial mode. You just have to beat the game once. Same with unlocking hard modes/alt levels.
I suspect a lot more episodes on Fire Emblem. There are SO many nice tidbits in the series that are pretty fun to learn about.
Kind of funny how I just beat FE7 for the 8th time two days ago after a year of not playing FE and then DYKG releases this video. It was a pleasant surprise to say the least.
Man, these are some constructive comments right here.
Your majesty, Ganon and his minions have seized the island of Koridai.
mah boi, these peace is what all true warriors strive for.
I'm so hungry, I could eat an octorock.
Enough! My ship sails in the morning. Hmm I wonder what's for dinner?
Man, these are some constructive replies right here.
I'm glad there was a casual mode. I'm getting sick of companies forcing how they want you to play their games down players throats. It's why I never finished XCom, because "save scumming" isn't allowed. I play games to enjoy them, not be frustrated by them.
I like the addition of casual more as well, so more people can enjoy this great game. But your reasoning is kinda stupid.
... Huh? "So more people can enjoy the game", but you don't understand my reasoning behind enjoying games I play and not being frustrated by them?
SaviorSixtySix I don't understand your reasoning that "companies forcing how they want you to play their games". I mean you are forced anyway to play it in a specific way. You are forced to kill. You are forced to do the mission in a specific order. You are forced to play it round based. I really don't understand what you mean by that.
See, now you're being picky. Playing something within certain restrictions is by definition, a game. Putting arbitrary systems in place that effect the game in ways beyond its gameplay is how developers force you.
SaviorSixtySix People enjoy a challenge. That's all I'm gonna say.
So glad they finally did this! I absolutely *love* the Fire Emblem series.
Maybe they could do Golden Sun next? Golden Sun 1 and 2 are some of my favorite games of all time.
YAY! finally a Fire Emblem DYK
Fates thanks Awakening-senpai for allowing its existence
If you ever decide to do another video on Fire Emblem, might I suggest asking Mangs to narrate it? He's pretty well-known in the community and he could provide a few facts himself
Nah, anyone but him, his an asshole with his fans, even ridiculing them when they don't agree with him.
That just means he knows how to stand by his own opinion and doesn't need his fans to suck off from and speak his mind.
Regardless of what you think, he's one of the only users on this site that has done spotlights from characters in the Fire Emblem series and has played more than just the 3DS titles. I feel he has some weight to his words because of the lack of xenophobia he has when it comes to hacks or new ways of playing different titles.
I don't mind him defending himself, I do mind the way he does it, however.
Cuizonix you're missing ghast also
Yes my man Mangs! He would be perfect for a narration of Fire Emblem Part 2 DYKG!
I played FE:8 when I was a kid and it was one of my favorites. I am glad to see it has became such a big phenomenon.
Lets get a Fire Emblem Part 2 - Did You Know Gaming?
Speaking of Advance Wars, why the fuck doesn't that franchise have a playable character in Smash Bros yet.
It's a small series. And who would you take anyway?
the newest Smash Bros has them as an Assist Trophy
Raidoton I wouldn't call it small, there's 10+ games in the Wars franchise, we probably haven't seen a character yet as the franchise doesn't really appeal to a Japanese audience, but then again we have Little Mac which has even less appeal to a Japanese audience. When the next Smash comes around or they decide to rep a new franchise as DLC, Wars should be at the top of the list in my opinion, and Andy or Sami should be the one who's included.
I'm no Advance Wars expert (I've only played Days of Ruin) but I think the series definitely is big enough to warrant a SSB character. It's just really not obvious how one would fight. The main characters are just commanders who don't fight themselves (that I know of), but fighting as a generic soldier would be boring. Also, I think their use of guns makes Nintendo a little iffy around them. They could do it, since Snake got in, but it's not helping their case. It sounds like Sakurai made assist trophies specifically to provide representation for unique series like Advanced Wars, but hopefully some day AW can make the jump to a full character.
Hear hear
AW >>>> FE
I hate how fans get angry over casual mode. Look people, some of us have never played a strategy game or are really bad at them. So let us play the freaking difficulty we want to play and you play the version you want, the developers can stay afloat, and we get more Fire Emblem games.
Such an underrated series!
Been waiting for this for a while
