User Name 21 Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I finally finished Fire Emblem Awakening after almost two months. My lazy review: Characters: Likable archetypes. Treehouse did a nice job with the dialogue. Plot: Standard magical-medieval political melodrama with an amnesiac as the main character. Presentation: Really nice. The cutscenes look fantastic. Maps: Rudimentary. They're almost all open areas, and the victory conditions are always either kill all the enemy troops or kill the enemy boss. Character Customization: Good. There're a lot of classes and skills but it's all pretty straight-forward so you can concentrate on strategy instead of trying to glean cryptic equations. Balance and Challenge: The normal difficulty is really easy even with permadeath turned on, and there are some pretty obvious things you can exploit the hell out of to make it a cakewalk (that have nothing to do with grinding), but I haven't played the higher difficulties so they may be a godsend if you play them. Dunno. Overall: Decent but basic. I'd give it a B/8. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Golem Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Finished Mirror of Fate. Trevor Belmont easily has the weakest act. It's annoying, because it's coming off the back of how awesome Alucard's was. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just did the elevator puzzle. yeah I think you have about 1-2 hours left. Have you enjoyed it so far?yeah!!! It's a great game!!! I hate some of the characters though and the story has been meh. However, the core gameplay, level design, and atmosphere are top notch! Edited March 24, 2013 by -GD- Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It did score in the 90s however and is my 2012 GOTY. ;) Edited March 24, 2013 by -CM- Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Golem Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I don't think I even have a GOTY 2012. I missed out on so many games that won the accolades. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't play many games in 2012, but i don't think you'd be disappointed with any of those 3 games + Hotline Miami. I still need to play Faster Than Light, give Mass Effect 3 another shot and maybe play Lone Survivor. Also X-Com was really good, though it eventually got old for me due to the repetitive nature of its missions. Great mechanics though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
