Game: Fire Emblem Warriors
System: Nintendo Switch - Ігри
For anyone who is still having trouble with the Villager Escort missions, make sure you use the Heal Blessing. This will not only heal your characters, but I noticed that it will also heal the villagers. After I started using it, I've never had a villager go below 40%, maybe even 50%.
Thanks for the tip
great review! I love how in depth you go, while still making your points clear
Please talk about the Strategist mode blessing. It's so horribly designed I'd be entertained to hear your thoughts on it.
I tried it myself. A complete time waster and you do almost nothing, but hey at least it costs 1 bronze mat and 1 gold.
I haven't used it, what does it do? Or what is it supposed to do rather
The goal is to make your unit deal 0 damage, so you order your units on the battlefield to feel like an original FE game.
The result is you awkwardly standing still in your allied base while your units take too long to do anything.
DavidKyokushin Yeah uhhhhh... that's just really dumb like you said. Like I actually want to play the game, not have the A.I. Play it for me. My God this DLC pack....
Yeah. There's arr no mechanics in the game that support it. There needs to be more that makes the system active. Like the battle continuing in real time when the map is up and actions your controlled character can do to support units near them.
Yay i have been waiting for this
I hope they added more DLC. I enjoyed it so much.
I overall loved the new pack since the positives outweighed the negatives for me. I love the 3 characters they chose even if two of them are clones and I mostly had fun finishing the rest of the History Mode maps. Sure the escort missions were bullshit, but I was able to think up strategies for each mission (i.e. having a Pegasus rider with a staff that is fine-tuned with a weapon that has effectiveness against most of the enemies with a partner that can deal with enemies that can take a while to kill. It becomes a game of management that way where you constantly have to fly around managing the different corners. Sure, it wasn’t fun and I’m sure as hell not playing them again, but at least I was able to complete all of them in a reasonable amount of time and move on to the missions I actually want to do.
tbh, I think the escort missions are probably the most fun I had with this game. Most other missions I can pretty easily get through using similar strategies, but the escort missions are so stressful that it makes me play a lot better and adjust my teams to adequately finishing those maps. Yes, they were tough as hell, but they never seemed impossible to me. I guess this is just a side effect to how I laugh a lot of this kind of frustrating things off because I've given into the existential dread. But I honestly didn't like the other mission type where you have to basically recruit the villagers. The villagers transform into units there, and I don't think their kills contribute to your overall total kill count, so this means that it's harder to get an S rank when they've killed a lot of the enemies.
When I got the DLC for Awakening, I only got Owain, Tharja, Olivia, and some history maps.... I didn't get any broken armor or weapon things like what it said on the website............
I wasn't a fan of the villager protection missions either, but once I equipped Lone Wolf, Potent Potion, and/or Live to Serve, and made sure I had at least one mounted unit on the field for getting to far away casters and enemy support units quickly, they went ok. I didn't find them particularly soul crushing.
Anyone else having a problem where I download the dlc, but the game isn't registering it as downloaded? Edit: sorry I didn't know you had to re-download the dlc.
No way, I thought this review would never come.
Yeah it's very hard like it's not even fair anymore I've barely played the pack but at least owain is in and I live him even if he's a clone
I think DLC should be another game other than this 3 gamd and these guy can be in a base game.
Lyn and Celica should be DLC and Ike, Roy, Eirika and more should be DLC too.
Water Breaker how bout we just get all in one game instead of paying extra for bullshit dlc
Why do you want to spend more money on Celica and Lyn? But I do want Eirika and Ephraim
I have not picked up the game since day one of this DLC
People tend to miss point, Yes there are clones. However how those characters play in terms of skills and authenticity is centred around the players focus on skill tree and weapon building also functionality of builds- example if I built Xander with say amped> Fury builder> Pair up plus, inclusion of say Minerva skill to take no effective damage and aegis and pavis in tandem onto strategic positioning, Xander would play differently towards let's say Frederick.
Exact formula goes with Ryoma and Owain. You can change how characters perform and improve on uniqueness of character through skills.
I love Hyrule Warriors, but combos are already there and only complexity I find is changing of weapons- abstractive though process could and should invoke reconciliation.
This mindset made me see Warrior games differently, as I like the tensive giant boss fights in Pirate warriors 4 more so than nightmare mode in 3, because though it's a challenge. All you have to do is Kazuna mode four dudes and stage done.
So dlcs values are dependent on what that dlc does for me in terms of gameplay and depth of my cast.
so you're in fire emblem mode now and all, but did you know? there's an nes demake of hyrule warriors. i just saw it in a cygnus destroyer video
The only battle I haven't done is for Lucina's opus and I can't be bothered grinding levels to be able to complete it
I can't get lissa opus and It's so frustrating
Tavo_ Zelda aww no I remember hating that one as well ;( I just... struggle to even put on the game after that pack
4:13 like the Zant/Argorok history mission in HW. Reeealy tedious
I didn't find the villager rescue missions to be any trouble at all. Bring 2 units with high luck, lethality, and a staff. Rush down captains as soon as they spawn.
I just use camilla or minerva's slam attack
This. I hated the Villager defense maps. Especially since I was going for Lissa's Axe. It downright infuriated me, and made me take a massive break from it. I still got it though, and it looks beautiful but it was so annoying to actually get the weapon, scroll, and the opus
Ehhh I didn't have that bad of a time with the "escort" missions.(THey are really defend the tower missions) though I did get irritated that they require you to take along someone who can heal. It's rough when a single game type mode kills an experience for you in these games. I know they were a few that made me groan in hyrule warriors.
Those missions where I have to save villagers with only a 2 character team were difficult at first. I managed to complete them with S rank by using Ryoma and Niles, or Caeda and Owain. Basically, the 2 fastest characters(faster than Lyn) in the game that can also heal, and the 2 characters that can insta kill with their combo 4.
Hello Gamesbrained,
I feel sorry for you that these missions ruined the game for you. But actually I didn't find it so crazy that you get some pretty hard missions at the end of the game. At this point everyone should have very overpowered generals.
Even tough the missions are hard, I was able to do almost all of them first try:
Two pegasus knights, two healer, Opus weapon, Minervas skill, other good skills, level ~80-100.
Everyone hates these missions! But they didn't make me hate the game. They made me feel awesome as I was able to show my 300h of experience.
With that said. Still a fan of your content! :)
They didn't make me hate the game either. That was the point of the delicious apple metaphor
GamesBrained
I know what you mean. I have the same trouble with the sword trails DLC in Zelda BotW. I did almost anything else. But I just can't do it.
Maybe all I have to do is, say yeah, it'll be rocky but there must be a strategy. It shouldn't be to crazy, I did all the rest already!
Still I just don't want to die there again. xD
That's a bummer, but you have to review the whole game, so your frustration is reasonable. I haven't played FE: Warriors yet, so I don't know if the escort missions are required, but if they are, it does make sense that they reduce the overall quality of the game. If it was optional you could go "this is horrid, but you can ignore it". That's how I feel about My Fairy at times in Hyrule Warriors, but it's optional, so when I get frustrated, I can just stop and come back later. If I was forced to do it as the core experience, I'd be harsher with the game.
That said, if you would to take your favorite qualities of Hyrule Warriors and FE: Warriors into a new game, what would you choose? From your videos, and my play of Hyrule Warriors, I find FE has cleaner mechanics, but HW has a much better cast. I wouldn't mind seeing a Kiseki Warriors or a Ys/Legend of Heroes matchup.
From what I remember there is at least one required mission.
Just a question, am I allowed to wash the metaphorical apple? Also, after watching this, I am craving fruit
You can, but that flavor has sunk in permanently.
GamesBrained aww poo apples 😡
I dealt with the problems anyway. I completed fire emblem warriors and it’s dlc. I agree about the villager missions. In a warriors game should not be in a warriors games. We want to hack and slash a bunch of enemies/defend bases while defeating enemies. But the villagers is a big no no. Escort mission or defend a villager mission. Should not be in a Musou game. But now in 2022. There’s a fire emblem warriors three hopes releasing this year on June 24.
Anybody know what the requirements are to get s ranks
It depends on the mission type. During the battle pause the game and look for the time, at this point you should see the conditions regarding s rank based on time and kos.
Most of the time it's 2000 KOs with varying times. I finished most missions under 10 minutes so it wasn't much of an issue. Also avoiding damage just boils down to spamming the dodge button in a lot of cases.
Thanks as I'm getting the game on my birthday which is on August 15th
2000 enemy kills with the group and winning under 20:00
Holy shit
Once you have finished remastering the Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition weapons, can you please analyse the enemies of Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition. This could include their moves and which ones to look out for if you know what I mean
I haven’t made it to the villager maps yet, now I don’t really want to play them.
WhiteInk47 Lone Wolf and Potent Potion/Live to Serve are your friends. And also Slayer skills that cover your units' weaknesses of course.
The Heal Blessing can be a huge help here. Not only will it heal your characters over time, but I noticed that it affects the villagers, too. After I started using it, I've never had a villager go any lower than 40%.
I'm sorry you had to eat the shit. Thank you for your commitment.
Im a hardcore zelda fan so this hurt alot is it better than zelda
I play Paladins...and I HATE escorting.
Never thought I'd see a mission more boring and time consuming then the escort bombchu missions in Hyrule. But it seems I was wrong.
Olivias moveset is awesome but I can’t stand her voice in either English or Japanese ugh
Also does anyone know how many of these villager missions you have to do to beat the main “story” of the three Awakening maps?
OH MY GOD SAME FUCK PROTECTING VILLAGERS I NEVER WANNA DO IT AGAIN I also basically abused the specials to try and waste time honestly fuck these missions
>Wears almost no clothing
>"EEE DONT LOOKAT MEEEEeeee"
Olivia is beyond grating, so poorly designed and written.
NRool
Warriors Olivia is so fucking shit she’s much better in awakening especially when she’s called out on her bullshit
It’s sad because this is like the best representation of Tharja
I unfortunately only ever skipped through her Support dialogues in Awakening because I found her really jarring, I find a lot of generic anime tropes Awakening relies on annoying though, characters like Henry, Tharja, Olivia just really irk me, Tharja especially so, like, she physically and mentally tortures her daughter and experiments on her, yet she's somehow a good person we are supposed to like?
Not trying to just bash Awakening, but it's characters are just, very hit and miss.
NRool Exactly all the other characters atleast justify their actions but not Tharja she just fucking abuses Noire for no reason although i disagree with your opinion on Olivia Henry youre right about Tharja
Hey GB, I don’t know you personally and I had no hand in developing the game, but I would like to apologize that you had such a problem with Villager Defense Mode. I had the same issue and it took me much longer to beat the DLC than I expected, and I also haven’t touched FEW since. In any case, I appreciate the review, and I encourage you to play a good, enjoyable, less frustrating game. You deserve a break.
In summary, the devs utterly despise 3DS players who aren't rich enough to have a Switch. It's the only explanation for them animating Lyn and Camilla's boob flapping over the MANY capes and loose cloth items in the game all of which are far more notable than the character's chests along with pre-rendering every single character's battle intro and victory cinematic so absolutely no costumes besides the different gender options and Masked Lucina get shown and removing even the OPTION of a taunt button all on top of having missions that can only possibly be completed fairly in multiplayer mode, which I'm fairly certain doesn't exist in the 3DS version, and even if does, I'm screwed because I'm the only one in my family with any interest or skill in Warriors games.
Wow unlisted
Geez, stop overreacting.
Yes, those escort missions are shit, but not to the point that your soul gets shattered.
Thank you for teaching me how to feel about stuff. Just don't because nothing great comment!
it's not really an overreaction, either.
(ikr)
Sure, those missions are crap, I get ya. Hell, I HATE THEM too.
But by the sound of it, those missions destroyed your moral, which IS kind of an overreaction.
ChiefMedicPururu I think he was implying that they were so stressful that completing them wasn't rewarding at all. And he felt so angry and stressed that he didn't want to play the game. (I can relate to that last part)
