Give me one good reason why I can't select this from the get-go
because the devs force you to play eliwood mode first, dummy
Eliwood is the main character. Hector mode was added so you can have some changes for replays.
cuz developers don't want to hear normies complain the game is too hard. they know hardcore players are already conditioned to not expect hard mode by default.
you can just download saves to unlock hard mode nowadays fortunately. even for new games.
It's too strong for you, traveler
>implying a first time players would have a chance of clearing this on HHM
>Eliwood is the main character
>yet the story is most complete in Hector mode
hmmm
ISIS, listen to me, I want only your strongest gameplay.
You can't handle my strongest gameplay. You better go find a company that sells weaker gameplay.
>You better go find a company that sells weaker gameplay.
So modern IS?
That's a bad thing
If you are completely fucking braindead you can't
>implying FE7 isn't some of the weakest gameplay in the series, worse than fateswakening
Why?
They don't have to play on hard mode first. That makes zero sense
Because Eilwood mode is shit like the entire game?
If the game is shit then why would you want to play a more tedious mode?
Because HHM offers the only "challenge" the game has and you can only get the full shit story by playing it.
Have to beat the game twice just to play Hector Hard Mode
Thanks ISIS
Because you're too stupid to play it on an emulator and grab a completed save beforehand.
Oh hey, a Fire Emblem thread with an OP specifically focused on FE7 and not a waifu. Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained...
There's nothing challenging about HHM when it feeds you such ridiculously powerful units with the enemy stat buffs like Raven, Legault, and Harken. The only difficulty exists early on and just comes down to how effectively you can use Marcus. The limited amount of deployed units just makes for a less fun, not more difficult, time.
But does he know why kids hate Marmite?
Watch out for ambush spawns, this is one of the few chapters in FE7 that have them
>game design only becomes good years after and not on its original device
Great game. Truly ISIS is king
The only reason I've ever reset on that chapter on HHM is because Jafar can get himself killed before a Paladin or other mounted unit can get down there. That's just poor design.
Speaking of waifus
I usually call them "same-turn reinforcements". And I've always liked them for some reason, since it means I don't have to fight them on forts.
Except lower deployment doesn't make it tedious as it's all about juggernauting
Does FE7 have an anti-piracy thing or something? I'm getting 1 stat up per level here.
It's called progression you fucking ADD manlet
Eliwood, she looks no different than most other anime waifus. What the heck does being born to not-Mongols have to do with anything?
>Speaking of waifus
Do not tempt me, this is a good and healthy FE thread.
You're just getting RNG screwed.
Did you seriously ask that
What progession? The game is terrible all the way through.
So stop playing you fucking retard.
So little fanart of this pairing. Then again, there's little fanart of Eliwood in general.
No, that's just Fire Emblem being Fire Emblem.
Nope, would've been hilarious if you downloaded a 0%growths mod by mistake though
Oh hey meme base.
Haha, alright. I thought maybe I needed a patched rom or my phone emulator was just that deprecated
I'm not sure how common it was on GBA, but there are older games with anti-piracy measures to fuck with players. Earthbound being one.
Been there, don't that.
I am playing FE7 for the first time as my first FE
I'm honestly having a lot of fun, but man this map looks like nightmare
No. Maybe they should have made a better game and not lock the only worthwhile mode you braindead cocksucker. FEfags are beyond delusional
This just in: luxury carpets found to be the new fetish among floor tile enthusiasts
>Fire Emblem 6 with Roy early promotion mod is the best GBA fire emblem
Is this disputable ?
It's not so bad. A lot of the enemies won't move towards you if you take the long way around, and you get to recruit a great unit on that map.
Stick to the objective
Also visit all the red house very important find here
As a complete neurotic who can't bear to let any opportunities slip, I disagree.
It's the best by default because it's not a shit game like 7 or 8
You can puss out and take the top route and most of the enemies won't attack you, but you'll miss out on all the goodies and exp from the middle.
Rival bandits staking the same turf
I don't have the time to explain to a brainlet why it's a good game.
You're so stupid that even if I explained it you couldn't possibly understand. With your primitive brain you need constant boom and action, you suffer from a low-brain tempo that it's physically impossible for you to understand the enjoyment of a slow burn and progression. Stick to shooty shooty bang bang games and marvel films.
>he says when the best unit in the group is a thief
It's not a good game. It's a piece of shit and not even a tactical one. Get a life Echoescuck.
Thieves is plural
And plot twist.
Yeah, for now I got a black mage and a badass axe
The challenge is not much to reach that Capitan but reaching it with all the goodies taken
Also that boss that appears in the 2nd-3rd turn always wreks me
>gets exposed as a retard
>resorts to anime faces
low tempo brain
It's not hard at all.
I went resetting six times for a fucking 65% chance to hit on the first turn because I wanted the other bandit to suicide on Guy. What is wrong with me...
Exposed? Bro we know who you are. You aren't even trying to hide. Why are you so upset anyway? 7 is a bad game. Especially compared go 6. Get a life Echoescuck
You see what I mean?
Have marcus deal with him, He should survive even if he gets crit, then you can deal with the boss on player phase.
>Especially compared go 6
If you don't get angry about video games you don't belong here retard
Oh hey, strength. That's rare.
You need to fuck off. You are the cancer that killed Yea Forums thinking being a autistic retard is why we used to be 24/7
Yes especially compared to 6. 7 is a objectively bad game in a bubble. But compared to 6? Its one of the worst games ever made
Okay, Marcus. Just steal the kill I intended for Hector. Why not.
Hah. Not only did the fucker suicide, but Guy managed to actually finish him this turn.
>hey guys can we tone down the swearing, it's really problematic ok? You should sanitize your posting for my tastes. Jeez can I get a moderator in here? This thread is really toxic
Kill yourself r*ddit sub-human
AH SHIT I FORGOT ABOUT THIS GUY
God, she looks like such shit in Heroes compared to this.
Hah. Wouldn't have killed her anyway, but it still helps
>tfw even a perfect level couldn't save rebecca from the bench in my playthrough.
I just wish her bases weren't so low
>lel rage machine
I hate when children find this board. They don't know anything about it. FE threads are literally entering a Reddit sub. So pathetic. Even funnier is this fefag won't ever stop replaying. Get a life echoescuck
Pretty much all the bow users in FE7 suck. Shame, especially when compared to how good Sue and Shin were in 6.
At least Louise is saved by making her amazing husband even better right out of the gate.
>criticizes blind hatred and shitposting
>still using reddit as a slur
why is 7 so hated? i liked it
Guy getting addicted to helpful crits
Rath is okay, he joins a bit late but he has good stats and a good class. Louise is also decent.
>criticizes blind hatred and shitposting
You don't understand. I'm criticizing when redditors and kids do it because they think it's real. They are, the invention of post-ironic since 2008
And here I thought Guy was supposed to suck.
It's shit and brain dead easy

Muh Lyn
Muh no Kaga

>post-ironic was 2008
lol, 2012 was when Yea Forums was spamming reddit ironically. Exposed retard
serenesforest.net
Friendly reminder that Tharcia 776 is getting a new translation and it's almost complete
I'll believe that when I actually see it.
>worse than fateswakening
Let's not say anything we can't take back, it's certainly not FE8 or Echoes
Just get a save file from gamefaqs that has all characters and difficulties ready to go.
No it wasn't and that doesn't have to do with anything
>RPG game
>"hard isn't challenging, it only changes stats"
Wew
>I only hate shitposting when people I don't like do it
It isn't, Yea Forums just loves shitposting too much. Hell, most FE threads don't even get to discuss the games this much in favor of more shitposting and waifu image dumps.
You can litterally download the incomplete patch and play it yourself
Reminder that Roy got to suck Rebecca's tits
Usually when you use an ingame screenshot from one of the pre-13 games, it tends not to derail.
I know FEfags are dumb but christ
No one cares
Bandits just lining up to get killed by Marcus.
I have really been using this thing liberally...
It involves anime titties. Somebody's gonna care one way or another.
Bad character anime titties so no
After finishing blazing blade should I play our boy's game or should I continue with the sequels?
Eliwood watching Guy from across the map
>Yea Forums hates FE7 now
What happened?
I'd recommend going to roy's game, if only to see why everybody gives him shit
Decent level
Yea Forums hates EVERYTHING. Where the fuck have you been.
It's nearly summer, tbqh
The translation ends at chapter 15 at the moment if i'm not mistaken! Plowing through this on my snes mini at the moment!
but stupid players could arrogantly pick hard first, get their ass kicked, and not recommend the game to their friends. therefore you remove this possibility with hard not unlocked by default.
No, it doesn't.
>he falls for the summer meme
Cringe
>worse gameplay than fucking snes games
Kek
Dorcas taking too many lumps
That's from Chapter 14.
You can apply this to any game ever made with difficulty modes. Besides all FE after it lets you pick the difficulty and sold better. Not a argument retard
I agree, FE4 is peak FE.
>implying 7 isn't inferior to 6
>There's nothing challenging about HHM when it feeds you such ridiculously powerful units with the enemy stat buffs like Raven, Legault, and Harken.
For the vast majority of it yeah. Cog of Destiny still deserves a mention though for being a legitimate challenge. They actually throw units with a speed stat at you. The Valkyries in particular in that chapter have 20+ speed and many units cannot double them with some even risking being doubled, they also throw tons of status staves at you. The chapter definitely highlights the major problem with FE7 though and it's difficulty. Enemy quality is generally just plain garbage and the only units that ever risk being double for 99% of the game are very slow units like Oswin, Dorcas, and Bartre who you shouldn't bother with anyone besides Oswin who acts as a mini jagen but falls off later due to low speed and movement.
It's just disappointing because that map shows they could still make a challenging map but chose not to for most of the game. They really didn't need to hold back on hard mode either it was locked behind finishing the game and called fucking hard mode there was no reason to make it as easy as it is.
I'm surprised someone on Yea Forums shares the same opinion as me. Thracia did some things better than 4
uhh yeah I know it's from chapter 14...I took the picture...
backlash from being a generally overhyped game.
Not talking about that shit """""game"""""
It's mid-Chapter 14. You said it stops at 15.
Marcus softening a myrm while bodyblocking Hector
You get another one
In chapter 30 :^)
How is the game jewish, user?
>22 posters
This is always so pathetic
uhh yeah my current progress is 14x I just wanted to show off the translation. The ...nevermind.
It's not. It's just shit
because this game was the first legally playable FE in the west
Not taking offense. Just being ridiculously nerdy.
I want Roy's game but without same turn reinforcements.
I also forgot to recruit Zeiss in my first playthrough and didn't get to see the true ending
>Thread about niche games attracts fewer posters than general shitposting.
Who'd a thunk it?
Ambush spawns wouldn't be such bullshit if they were foreshadowed more often.
I can't force myself to keep playing after this mission, feels like a chore, which is kinda weird since i had a lot of fun trying to take down the wyvern bitch
Why don't they just generals a chariot?
Really good levelup from Lowen. Still not gonna be using him once Sain and Kent show back up.
No these types of threads are always like it
I have a similar problem with the desert chapter. The Fog in HHM along with the Exp requirement for the sidequest frustrates me.
Do I just have ADD or is FE7 (and 8 for that matter) just so unbearably slow?
Really wish these threads could be less hostile one day...
>replays.
hahahaha he thinks people replay games
even when people replay, they replay them years later so they've forgot shit, and they replay only the games they loved
difficulty modes being locked are not the way to add replay value, the vast majority of people will play on the hardest difficulty available from the start and finish that and be satisfied, they're not gonna play again on a new unlocked one
I am a GREAT tactician.
Anyone got that image where it is in a battle scene that has a quote like "Ah, it's one of the professional motherfuckers" ?
There's no way this could possibly backfire.
This was a brilliant idea.
The worst is Murdock's chapter where just crossing arbitrary lines spawns a shitton of wyvern lords and paladins right on top of you. I'll take turn based ambushes over that shit any day
At least I managed to damage this mage.
Goddammit Dorcas for once in your life just dodge
Shouldn't you promote him at this point
Stats seems to suck
Rad. Thanks user.
>Eliwood is the main character. Hector mode was added so you can have some changes for replays.
What does that have to do with anything? Hector mode isn't harder because the changes to the missions and characters, it's harder because enemies have higher stats across the board.
The question is: why didn't the developers allow you to play on hardmode from the start?
Thankfully, they realized their mistake with the next game, Sacred Stones.
And Guy is completely out of range to help them.
Playing FE6 right now and Wolt is just as shit. Just got Sue and they have pretty much the same stats while Wolt is 4 levels above Sue. And no one uses Dorothy either.
Through some feat of divine retardation, I managed to get myself out of this mess.
Don't ask, but it involved a whole bunch of really lucky Hand Axe attacks.
>Myrmidon
>Ever sucking
Only if you're unlucky. As long as they get some stats besides skl and spd, you're good. Tfw Guy once had 12 str at level 20/5.
And this is the level I get for it. Look at all those 10s.
I'll say how I beat that chapter
Send Marcus to the village, free kills, you have one side less to care about and free 5000$ once you visit the village
Enemies can come from 4 directions now, use your axemans around the bridges and archers/mages behind them
Do that for 7 turns and you win
Lyn > Hector > a hamburger found in the trash > Eliwood
Myrmidons are a terrible class
>Promote
>Roy
Choose one.
Southeast dealt with, and Dorcas is doing what I expected Marcus had to do by securing the village.
Oh...
It's going to be painful, isn't it?
OH FUCK THAT WAS ALMOST A GAME OVER
That's understandable, but I'm nuts and prioritize getting as many kills and XP as possible, so I pretty much have to advance past Merlinus's island.
Eliwood
Elly wood
Eli wood
Which one?
Anyway, he survived, and managed to get this from killing a nomad the next turn.
Eli as in helicopter
Too bad SS is so piss easy that even hard mode feels like easy mode
In my time, trolling meant something
And Serra got this for healing him.
And that's game, set and match.
Its called HECTOR HARD MODE for a reason chum
It's called objective truth. And your time is 2013
That's a pointless statement
This place doesn't look remotely like an island.
And that's about it for me. Hopefully people cared about me posting this stuff.
>36 posters
Gg man
You're a pointless statement.
No I'm a human. Unlike you.
I miss that guy who trolled reddit and youtube as berta lovejoy in every frontpage thread. He had a few different characters he played and his posts were always amazing. I think he went to prison though.
AND WHAT IS A MAN?!
A MISERABLE LITTLE PILE OF SECRETS
No u.
Engarde!

Kill yourself
?
Why does this make me want to mercilessly mating press Cath until I pass out?
FE6 on normal was too easy, I'm going for hard after all. What can I expect?
Some maps have more reinforcements atop of the higher overall stats. The Fighters in the early chapters can be quite annoying to deal with if you don't chip them with Wolt.
It's called having good taste. Imagine brutally mating pressing Cath while she moans la la la in your ear.
Expect 13 strength brigands ch1 and never doubling ever
Awesome
ANyone able to translate this
not if you post a thumbnail
FUck, saved the image wrong.
Here, this should be better
can't properly translate because I'm missing context. basically the guy with purple hair is hitting on the girl and the other gury tells him she's supposed to be with the guy on the picture. then the girl gets mad

Ephraim: I have plans hooking her up with this guy called Saleh
In white: Looks like this
Lyon: Eh
Eirika: You demon king! Now you posessed the body of my brother? I'm gonna pass judgement on you along with my brother
Ephraim: Hey, what are you saying? The demon king is inside Lyon

Eirika: Go to heaven, brother!
