wait did my time machine finally work?
Am I back in 2011 when steampunk was a thing ad unoriginal indie hacks were all over it?
Oof

>steampunk
>a thing
try 2000s like arcanum and thief, but seriously I can't think of any other games centering around steampunk

i'd love a HD port of this thing on switch, 3DS couldnt handle it properly

>annoyed professor who has to deal with forbidden knowledge & bullshit on a daily basis
that closeup view of your units in Three Houses reminded me of this game, and then I see people claiming they got that from just Valkyria Chronicles
Ryan Hernandez
How are the Amiibo units in this game? Saw that my boy Ike is in and I want to use him for my playthrough.
Nathaniel Foster
Lucina is top tier
Daniel Morris
Lucina & Robin are generally good. Lucina's bow has ridiculous range & can jump to places. Robin can overwatch, stun & has range. Marth is all melee but he's the only unit that cannot get hurt by overwatch attacks. People say Ike sucks but he has uses. His Aether has great range and can push/break things, he can push people further, has the most HP and can deal melee damage up close.
Adrian Roberts
>Robin can overwatch
Is the ability to overwatch rare or something?

eat shit

>last character you get is shitty
why do games keep doing this?
Samuel Powell
Hideous game.
Jayden Carter
Only 2 of the FE characters can overwatch or basically intercept enemies within range on the enemy's turn. Robin can do it from long range while Marth can only do it with his subweapon from close range. If you don't use overwatch to stop enemies, you generally get overwhelmed by enemies on their turn. The game basically forces you to go forward and not sit there by sending reinforcements.

>wanting to buy a game with wil wheaton smudged all over it
it seems like a good game based on the demo but I'm not getting it because fuck that guy
Christian Gonzalez
isnt this the game that died because wil wheaton exists?

Rise of Legends had the best steampunk depiction of any form of media. It was also a fucking fantastic game.
Nolan Scott
I tried, user. I tried. Tactics games, cell shading, and steampunk are all my jams but I couldn't get into the gameplay.
Gabriel Hernandez
I preordered the game and loved it. But it had the worst marketing of all time

It's sad knowing there was a legit chance of one of our American presidents being in Smash, and we don't live in the universe that he did.
Christian Butler
What do you mean, Stovetop is great. Weird how you only get three members of the Wizard of Oz gang, though.
Oliver Sullivan
What made it 'punk' anyway?
Asher Butler
I can’t, consol only

some alternate crack universe where american literature characters banded under a dead US president to kill aliens or industrial metal music in an 1800s setting

I'll play your shit game just because I'm desperate for any American mythology/folktales in media.
The only other one I can think of is the Fate mobile game that made Paul Bunyan a giant Loli.
Jackson Green
>Paul Bunyan a giant Loli
I don't know how the japanese arrived to that conclusion but then I remembered that they made King Arthur into a girl
Jaxson Diaz
sometimes i wonder if this game would've sold decently if it came out on the switch with the patch, that year had everything going against it and not just style
David Powell
Did it. Loved it. Never ever a sequel to expand or online players for it. Never gets some love... and for all that... I'M STEAMING!!!
>bought for $9 brand new
Aaron Martinez
ill just drop some art
this game was dumb yet it had soul
Chase Fisher
It was DOA because of the art style.

OK, faggots: favourite loadouts.
Oz is quite relevant in the game's plot, not that plot is really relevant at all for games in general but still; there's a reason. for it.
Carter Ward
Bioshock, that indie puzzler with the elemental sprites, and there was that shitty card game with steampunk characters.
Honestly though unless it's Arcanum or Thief you're best just ignoring that shit since it basically comes down to tophats with gears, and all it makes me want is more Arcanum and more Thief, if only Arcanum wasn't owned by Acti-blizz.
Mason Moore
The enemy turn times killed CNS.
Gavin Perry
Gabriel Richardson
Fox with ninja pack, Randolph for increased crit, Henry to push and Lion as tank. Also Emerald City looks great and not as pixelated in Citra
Ethan Reed
The artstyle and the fact that your picture is using steam is the reason i didnt buy the game. Its a shame because i like the gameplay

that slow enemy turn issue is such an oversight, I dont know how they didn't catch that in testing especially when their previous game, Awakening, had it. The only explanation would be that they were pushed to release it while testing a new game engine different from Awakening/Fates/Echoes
Henry Bennett

The amount of love this game gave lovecraft stuff is incredible. Miskatonic University was one of my favorite parts of the game.

>tfw they never release full versions of Robin and Lucina's victory themes
Easton Walker
a damn shame it apparently didn't do too well. it was a fantastic game.
Jeremiah Sullivan
I was thinking maybe they'd give full remixes of their victory themes in Smash but nope. Also was hoping Robin's Final Smash would be changed to this one which showed Grima but its just Chrom (and Chrom's was just him with Robin iirc).
John Young
King arthur kind of works since one of the most important parts of his legend is that his wife was unsatisfied in their marriage. of course it falls apart when you remember he had a son with morgan.
Paul Bunyon is literally a joke servant from a gag manga.
Asher Barnes
Same. I'd also prefered it if they did treated Robin as an antagonist rep for FE(with the hoody up alt.) and made Grima his/her final smash. But I guess that's too spoilerish for Sakurai.
Mason Collins
>this is Jack the Ripper
oh japan
Hudson Barnes
but not for the devs themselves
isn't Smash Ultimate covered in spoilers anyway, in the form of spirits etc? Like Fiora from Xenoblade and I know Sakurai loves Xenoblade
Brayden Thomas
Michael Williams
I believe they did in the WiiU version. Maybe Sakurai didn't want to change Robin so much in Ult. due to time restraints or something.
Grayson Brown
Benjamin King
>time restraints
I kinda see it as lazy or they were more concerned with making sure Smash Ult was absolutely bug free and stable online with those new modes & adding 3rd party
Luke Ramirez
Jace Bell
I preordered it just for the majora's mask pin
Juan Young
oh yeah, that was a thing was it
Ryan Thompson
yeah and it sucks, because it's a nice pin, but it's a safety pin back rather than just a spike, so I can't wear it on my tie to work
Alexander Lewis
you'd probably save yourself the trouble not wearing it, it might be valuable in a couple of years as long as you don't lose it (theres also a preorder for Three Houses pins but not sure if the quality will be good)
Oliver Sanders
Sebastian Perry
I hate the artstyle
Joshua Wright
>Abominations are meant to be the same thing as the Dunwich horror
god I hate that we'll never get a sequel to this
Ayden Cox
I kinda wish the enemies looked more serious or less goofy. Also, I forget if this is supposed to be a reference to a Great Old One or something else
Connor Hughes
Robin is very good. Without boilers(because they’re all mediocre at best when things like Lincoln boilers are considered) I believe I recall him being almost as strong as Califia but obtained “earlier”, in addition to being cheaper to fire(3 steam va 4, it’s fucking huge). The big thing is it can overwatch which makes him great. Levin is a stun mortar but can bypass walls which means it’s just ok. Tactician is absolute shit, of the group only Marth can utilize it and it’s half as strong as carter’s version(I believe I recall it being 20 vs 10 %) for no reason, in addition to them not stacking.
Lucina actually has one of the strongest per steam weapons in the game with nidhogg but it’s honesty kinda unruly to wield because it has three angles it can shoot at and the closer ones can and will get blocked by scenery often. I’d even call her useless on the mansion map for example. Falchion is just lion’s primary out right, but unlike lion she doesn’t have a regen boiler and 10% less def to go around terrorizing the map single handedly. That’s not to say it’s bad, it’s still good mobility and she has dorothy’s special to abuse with it for some easy map clears, I just don’t like it as much as I do on lion. Her passive is nice but basically gently asks you don’t use lion or queequeg since they don’t stack. She just offers a 10% attack def boost. Simple but effective.
Marth is pretty bad. He’s a melee character with 6 fucking steam regen. You’ll want someone with shove or tinman so he can actually get something done, otherwise you’re waiting so long you’ll either get overrun or you’ll lose the time bonus. Rapier is extremely strong if it hits weakpoints(4x crit bonus) but shit other wise which is when you whack them with the falchion. His special let’s him heal people near him once(with an occasional cameo from wrys) which is a part of why merciless fire emblem runs are as impossible as they are.
Xavier Richardson

Generally Marth is pretty fine early on, especially since everything has easily accessible weakpoints, but eventually his only purpose will be to distract nettlers and waste enemy overwatch
Ike is just a taxi for Marth, clean and simple. Ragnell costs 4 steam but will often deal sub 20 damage and send team mates and enemies flying into areas you don’t want them to be because of how unruly it is. Urvan is a 3 steam melee weapon with ok damage but he lacks Marth’s Ability to close in to use it and the one use weakish heal Marth has means you can’t just face tank shit to use it. I’d without hesitation call Ike the worst character in the game. At least Dorothy has her special and toto on overwatch can fuck berserkers, I can’t think of a single nice thing to say about Ike besides his ability to shove.
Carter and Scarecrow are the funnest characters for me. Then with John end up being my core comp for pretty much every chapter, exception typically being ones with devastators or whatever the giant fucks are called. I also love how carter is literally just fucking rusty venture.
Cameron Ward
I mean, if you play the game the grima part isn't really you anyway
Andrew Garcia
Why is the gameplay so... unfun? I tried to like it but I just can't. It's like Valkyria Chronicles but a lot more restrictive.
Hudson Sanchez
How far did you get? I find that the start is pretty hard(as in annoying/boring) but once you actually start unlocking options to chose from it’s phenomenal
Austin Ward
the first few parts are like a tutorial for basics but its pretty punishing compared to VC
Colton Hernandez
I wish the game did better, I was imagining hearing their VAs in a Fire Emblem game. It probably soured future opportunities of Nintendo wanting to use union actors. Then again its probably a good opportunity for other new VAs to get their foot in the door & cheaper.
