Video Games

[Psychotime]

Because i cant afford to buy a 3ds i´m replaying the old Game boy advance Fire Emblem games on my phone. And guys, those are some really awesome games.
Because there is something worse than dying in a videogame, and that is to see how your soldiers, your comrades die because of you. So i dont mind to replay a mission 3 times if the reward is to make those good soldiers come back alive.

That's the best (and most frustrating) part about Fire Emblem. Each of your soldiers are unique individuals with a bit of personality given to each of them, and if you mess up on a mission and they end up dying, they STAY dead. And it'll force you to make a decision: start the mission over or move on for the rest of the game without that solider.

And it's also really cool how you can develop your character's stats in certain directions by having them interact with other characters, making their personalities develop even more, and making you MORE invested in the soldiers as individuals. Your soldiers may fit under classes, but they are more than just "Mage" and "Knight". They're "Sain, the wannabe lady's man" or "Canas, the overenthusiastic scholar".

As a tactical rpg, it's already good, but the character element makes the game go even further.
