Sentacotus Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 (edited) So I think its safe to say that most people like Fire Emblem Awakening (myself included its my second favorite FE) some even call it the best Fire Emblem out there but knowing that every game has its flaws if there was one thing you could change about the game or improve what would it be? If I could choose one thing it would be to add varied mission goals (i.e defend until x amount of turns, capture/seize, rescue, keep so and so alive). Edit: I know there's the Tiki paralogue where you keep her safe but still the goal is to eliminate the enemy commander/enemy Edited December 6, 2014 by TacoMan42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookofholsety Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 if i absolutely positively had to choose only one thing, it'd be to change nowi's outfit so she isn't just shitty lolicon-bait. sure, that'd still leave the atrocious writing, mediocre characters, broken gameplay, bland and flat maps, completely and utterly undeveloped world, dangerously skewed "chrom/avatar is always right even when they're obviously wrong by any reasonable standard" morality, and all the other terrible female character designs, but hey, at least fe13 wouldn't have "abject, blatant paedophilia" as one of its sins anymore!

I would kinda hope that by having varied mission goals that would force more varied maps. For example a defend map would have either more natural chokepoints or perhaps weak areas the enemy could attack to flank you etc. As far as the world yeah there's alot of gaps I suppose but that leaves more to the imagination lol. The Chrom/avatar always being right I wish the choices you made other than the ending one actually had an impact in the game like branching paths with different chapters that could be interesting and I would like to see IS consider doing that.

Draco Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Everything. I don't care if you said "1" thing. All of it. the atrocious writing, mediocre characters, broken gameplay, bland and flat maps, completely and utterly undeveloped world, dangerously skewed "chrom/avatar is always right even when they're obviously wrong by any reasonable standard" morality, and all the other terrible female character designs Also, more completion goals.

Alastor15243 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 (edited) This isn't a thread for people to harp on about how much they hate awakening, please stop hijacking it for this purpose. Personally? I'd pick making male characters have children like the female ones. A lot of male characters would've made interesting non-generic parents, in particular Donnel, Kellam, Vaike and Gaius.

I can agree with that I can imagine Lon'qu and Inigo having funny conversations the father a gynophobe the son a philanderer (how in the hell does that happen) if he and Olivia marry.

Moira Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 (edited) I probably would change the characters/supports to give them a little more depth or development Edited December 6, 2014 by Moiraine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czar_Yoshi Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Although BookofHolsety's is a very close second, I'd give the story a shred of self-awareness. All it would take is one little scene- nay, even a single line could do it if placed well- acknowledging that Chrom and Avatar aren't righteous in everything including their abandonment of conquered Plegia and Valm and Cht.14 to completely change the context of the story, making it read less like a bad fanfiction. Oh, and if I got to pick a third, I'd ask for better names for the locations. So far, Ylisse is the only country that has even one named city, and the two that it does have are completely uninspired. I want my Lefcandith and Araphen back, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irysa Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Promoted classes get base weapon ranks like the DS games. Really REALLY annoying how you start with E no matter what, makes it considerably less flexible than it should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagon Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Guess this isn't really part of the game but I don't like some of the DLC that brings certain characters back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could change one thing, and you'd use that change to cut existing maps with no replacement? Well, OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 (edited) Replace battle panties with pants It'd be an easy change too, texture swap go I'd like to not be forced to look at my Avatar's ass whenever I use her in my favorite classes and inb4 "turn off the animations" I do except animations are forced for the Grima fite Edited December 6, 2014 by Thor Odinson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irysa Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 (edited) Yeah I could get behind that too. I'm okay with skirts, but the pants thing bothers me a lot more than I thought it would. It seems prevelant for mounted classes which is particularly confusing (chafe much?) especially when the one class line (Pegasus) that historically has done the whole zettai ryouiki thing in the series is one of the few mounted classes to NOT go that far. I guess technically falco does but it's way harder to notice since it's still basically a skirt with long leggings, as opposed to something like a Paladin or Wyvern where they're just...in their undies.

Thor Odinson Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Paladin and Falco bother me even more because the other classes are at least shameless about it. Paladin and Falco are like "here are some pants but im gonna cut a hole right down the middle" and it feels like a goddamn ripoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irysa Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 (edited) Eh, Falco's at least still have some semblance of a basic tunic/skirt in the design, and there isn't all that much armor prevelant on the outfit in the first place. The falco design basically reminds me of the 2010 updated Whitewing designs which I'm okay with (although tbh I'd prefer if the skirts went all the way around) Paladin is far more jarring for me since they're wearing proper armor elsewhere, then cut into undies for some reason. Contrasting that, I'm not opposed to Dark Mages and Sorcs surprisingly. I don't really mind the design there that much for the characters who start in those classes/enemies, although it's incredibly awkward (much like the fighter or berserker classes) for some other characters in a reclass.

Chloe Neo Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I would change the story of awakening, where emmeryn didn't fall of a giant bone to get death , gangrel will instead . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magical Glace Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Everything can change, eh Chrom? Very well, Everything is my answer too. But in all seriousness, replacing Avatar with a character with a set in stone appearance, name, class set, etc. would make me like them 9 times more. And cut their support everybody nature. In other words, make them a regular unit with nothing special besides being a lord. I hate avatars in FE. It. Doesn't. Work. Get. That. Through. Your. Thick. Skulls. IS.

MisterIceTeaPeach Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 (edited) Everything is my answer too. However my biggest request is to add more mission types than all these boring rout and defeat boss missions. Where the hell are the classic defend / surviving missions? The "pseudo"-defend missions in chapter 6 and in Tiki's paralogue don't count. Edited December 6, 2014 by The Taninator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perfect Infinitive Exitus Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 The Animations would be 32-bit like the GBA ones :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, those are annoying. Grima's the worst though since Avatar gets off her mount for the final shot and then it's an eyeful of ass in my face. Well then.
