Fire Emblem series

I'm actually in the progress of watching all the Mangs and Mekkah lets plays again and this is just bang on the money right.
The two did bounce off of each other and Mekkah wasn't exactly boring, just the straight man.
Just finished their FE11 playthrough and am now starting the FE9 one, its really good background noise.

Just wait until you get to FE10, its the perfect blend of their chemistry along with Radiant Dawn supplying its own nonsense with things like its cutscenes and certain chapters. Its still my favorite LP on the channel.

I've watched them before when they were first posted but it's been long enough for it to essentially be a "new" experience.
In the FE11 videos the two of them made a few jokes about Mekkah eventually making a "Mangs Exposed" video, so maybe on some level they knew this would not last. Truly prophetic.

Currently I am playing FE11 myself as I was always a fan of it, I was a big fan of the H5 difficulty but it's difficulty was incredibly frontloaded.
And I have found a solution for this problem and that is the full content patch found here.

This patch enables you to play the prologue on every difficulty and it's just amazing in my eyes.
Those few prologue chapters allow you to level Marth up sufficiently where he can actually be a valuable unit I found.
Instead of a level 1 shit guy you will have a level 5-7 Lord with acceptable stats who may also double attack the incredibly tanky enemies.

This experience, playing H5 with a prologue, it made me think that maybe H5 was designed with the prologue exp in mind because in this playthrough I was actually able to fight the enemies on somewhat even footing.

If you have the urge to play FE11 again on a high difficulty I strongly suggest you use this patch.

This patch also does a few other things which are optional, I have enabled all of them.
You can enable gaiden chapters to be automatically accessible so you have even more exp and some rarely used characters to play around with.
Furthermore you can enable FE12 reclass options, meaning you can have Female Cavaliers and Generals (though no mixed sets for males).

I'll post a few of my noteworthy units, I am on Chapter 11.
First is a Unit I always wanted to use but she never made the cut

Athena 2.PNGAthena.PNG
I gave her an Angelic Robe and she is reasonably tanky because of it but other than that she doesn't really do much for the army. I forged her Wo Dao to have a ton of crit and it took most of my money.

Wrys 2.PNGWrys.PNG
This motherfucker just kept levelling speed and magic so I decided to keep him around, he is surprisingly solid as a chipper and I might bring him all the way.

Cord.PNG
Cord...I really wanted to use him as a mage this time since I liked his speed but even while in Dark Mage he kept levelling strength instead of magic. I had to forge him a tome in order for him to keep up.
Maybe I should've just kept him in a physical class. At least he wont be weighed down by any tome.

Barst.PNG
Barst is an absolute beast, I reclassed him to Mercenary so he could level strength some more and to build sword rank for his Hero Promotion. All he needs was a forged Iron Sword and he is almost onerounding H5 enemies.

Noorne.PNG
Thanks to the patch you also always recruit Norne and I was pleasantly surprised.
Archers are still very valuable and she got strength and speed blessed for me.
I forged her a Longbow so her 5 mov is less of a hindrance, very solid and fun unit.

Shiida.PNG

Shiida as per usual is always amazing, her being able to reclass to Cavalier helps her tremendously, she still capped her speed and gained a bunch of def to boot.
I do abstain from just cheesing the game with her Win Spear too much though.

Abel.PNG
Holy fuck, that's all I have to say.
This guy is a fucking monster and can take on an entire enemy phase on his own, he is hard carrying me.

Marth.PNG

And finally Marth, he has been incredibly solid as you can see. His Rapier is almost broken and his crit rate with the Killing Edge is really good too.
All Marth needed to function on H5 was the prologue, a true shame

Furthermore I am of course using Jagen, Wendel and Lena but everyone already knows what they're like since their stats barely matter.
I am also not using Sedgar or Wolf since they kind of trivialize the game and aren't really that fun to use.
I tried to use Hardin too but he died and I wasn't gonna restart for him

Neat, I'll keep this in mind!
Last time I played FE11 it was on H3 I think and already the first few bosses were so strong that even Jagen took multiple turns to beat them, yet the lategame bosses got shredded by any of my units because their stats stayed around that level. The difficulty curve is super strange.
Unlocking Athena without having to genocide your own army sounds fun.

Does anyone else remember a browser-based (unofficial) Fire Emblem game that existed back in the early-to-mid 2000s? From what I can remember, you had a limited amount of energy to take turns with, and had to wait for it to recover.

there was an FE style thing similar to AWBW iirc.

Yes! Holy shit, looking into it, I'm 90% sure that this is the same guy who made it. It looks like the amarriner.com website used to have another game called Fire Emblem By Web, and "amarriner" sounds really familiar.

Looks like it's gone though. Not popular enough, or something. Unfortunate, but I was already expecting it to be dead. Just wanted to sate my curiosity. Thanks.
 
I don’t know if I ever said my racist views on this directly, and I know you all intrinsically care, but my instincts are objectively honed and not to be doubted.

Discovered some cretinous Dorothea-hater elsewhere in the fandom is, as my profile of such people predicted, a midget goblin from Bolivia.

Being a white girl who would never date a Squatemalan she is the object of much shallow, low trust (ie brown) hatred. The obvious sexually desirable aspect of her character also brings out incel hatred but it’s largely a browncel phenom. I guess white incels can tell that there’s nothing too ideologically threatening from a girl who chooses marriage to a good-natured and status-appropriate man over girlbossing until she’s old, or finding cads exciting, or choosing penury for no reason. I think these defamations cover all the cliches.

Edit: Actually this pattern has held true here too if we rush to conclusions from Spanish-language usernames.

I think it's a bit different. Mangs made Mekkah more fun. He could me more crass and edgey because the law of the land hadn't been set in stone yet. Symbolically, the 2020 incident represents the gay polarization of FE YouTube. By making FE youtube's biggest personality persona non grata, you essentially bury whatever attitudes you can associate with him. And Mekkah followed suit essentially burying what little personality he had.

FE Youtube really died as a whole once the 2020 incident went down. Say what you want but it's hard to deny that at the time Mangs was much more entertaining the many of the other youtubers and his content output was way ahead of pretty much everyone else. He brought out the best from his co-hosts with his personality and everyone benefited.

Now it just seems barren. I personally don't find Mangs as enjoyable to watch and the rest of FE Youtube is just troons and other stupid gay bullshit nonsense.

I like how I can be gone for months, come back, and Berrakh will still randomly bring up some kind of waifufaggotry sperging completely unprompted.

I love this place sometimes.

Well, it's not like anything else is happening. The only new game that I saw, this morning wasn't even worth sharing, here

Oh now I get it. Dude had a spat with a beaner about a character in a 5 year old game.

He then talks about the fictional character being made only for the BWC and rejecting browncel cock when those concepts do not exist in game.

I feel the need to point out that Cyril is a Rhea simp but Rhea will only put out for Byleth.
