Favorite Fire Emblem Characters - VGF

Ike · 06-15-2005, 06:13 PM

Yeah, so, because there is no FE forum (that would be awesome), I am posting this self-explanitory topic here. Characters are not limited to good guys.

My favorite FE characters are:

From Fire Emblem:
1) Rebbecca
2) Raven
3) Priscilla
4) Lloyd
5) Legault

From FE: Sacred Stones:
1) L'Arachel
2) Marisa
3) Gerik
4) Amelia
5) Neimi

Hm, I don't really have a set order in my mind, but a few of them jump out at me:

FE7:
Lyn
Sain
Erk
Guy
Raven

FE8:
Ephraim
Joshua
Lute
Caellach
Saleh
Ross

I'm afraid I've never played a Fire Emblem game. I know I prefer Roy to Marth in SSBM [img]tongue.gif[/img]

ahuambachano · 06-15-2005, 08:01 PM

Marth belongs to the very first Fire Emblem (and think the second, too). Roy belongs to the sixth FE (Japan only). We only began having Fire Emblem from the seventh and on.

Ike · 06-15-2005, 08:12 PM

Unfortunately. The FE series is awesome. They should've brought them over sooner.

Swordmaster Link · 06-15-2005, 08:37 PM

It's a shame they won't bring 6 over, it's far more difficult than 7 and 8.

Ike · 06-15-2005, 08:44 PM

Not to mention it continues the story that started in 7. Or, if you want to be technical, 7 is the prequel, and 6 is the original.

StarryPeach · 06-15-2005, 09:40 PM

In no particular order:

Blazing Sword:
Lyn, Hector, Pent, Eliwood, Erk, Ursula, Pent, Lucius, Raven.

Sacred Stones:
L'Arachel, Lute, Tana, Ephraim, Artur, Amelia, Franz, Ross.

Where are these lemmings going? The Super Nintendo Super Shire! Hop in line and follow them there!

Sim Kid · 06-24-2005, 08:50 PM

Nino and Denning without a doubt. Then Lyn, Canas, Raven, Sain, Guy, and Farina.

Serial Miller · 06-24-2005, 10:30 PM

Once again. Turn based strategy = my boredom.

Link the Adept · 06-24-2005, 10:49 PM

Actually, I'm pretty sure Marth's from 1 and 3.

Swordmaster Link · 06-24-2005, 11:44 PM

^ Yeah.

^^ omg stop flaming the topic

Mr.Hammermap · 06-25-2005, 11:01 PM

FE7:
Erk
Matthew
Hector
Nergal
Denning
FE Sacred Stones:
Colm, Gerik
Amelia, Ross, Ewan
Lute, Artur
Ephraim

My overall least favorite character would have to be Lyon. Anyone who's beaten Sacred Stones agree Lyon is a horrible main enemy? He had no chance with his "Goal", and Ephraim was too nice to him. Nergal would've had a chance to work out his dragon quintessance stealing. The dragon looked cooler too, even though the Demon King didn't have a creepy screech.

Swordmaster Link · 06-25-2005, 11:28 PM

I didn't like how they tried to make it seem like killing Lyon would be a tragedy. I felt no connection to his character whatsoever.

Mr.Hammermap · 06-26-2005, 08:13 AM

And they said "In ten days I will sacrifice myself. The only way to stop me is to kill me."
Either way you release the Demon King. And Ephraim was saying how he'll always be Lyon's freind, even though Lyon lied to him, sent monsters at him, tried to kill him, said the Demon King never possessed him, and caused a war out of his stupidity. He had no goal or morale. He was a wimp who couldn't live without his father, yet Ephraim and Eirika did fine. Of anything, he pretty much was an awful character. Nergal, he had a shot. He could've achived his goal, especially because he actually had one. He was also strong enough to do it. Lyon was too easy to beat.

Swordmaster Link · 06-27-2005, 10:00 AM

By the time you get to that point in the game (especially now with this "training outside of actual chapters" thing), your characters are already way too strong for Lyon to pose any sort of challenge...somewhat similar to how things ended in Super Metroid. Same goes for Nergal...wasn't much of a challenge there if you knew what you were doing. King Zephiel was a much better developed villain than either of those two. FE6's plotline is just better in every way.

Ike · 07-07-2005, 01:41 PM

Damn those people for not bringing FE6 over here.

Sim Kid · 07-07-2005, 10:33 PM

Nergal was indeed pretty easy if you knew what you were doing. One thing I noticed though was that if I did specific actions (Like moved characters to specific spots and had them kill specific characters) then up until Nergal, everything seemed pre-programmed. Rath always went after Matthew if I moved him at a specific spot, he would always dodge, then he would always have criticals on the exact same enemies as he did last time. It may be that my copy has some bugs in it that aren't in my friend's version.

**Prince Toad** · 07-07-2005, 10:44 PM

^No, it's because the formulas they use are stupid and not really random. A lot of stuff in the games is stupid, like the constant-save things (play the same hour-long level SCORES OF TIMES), but despite that, I still like them.

FE7: (Blazing Sword?)
Lowen-- the man. Support him to anyone.
Rebecca-- ridiculously good, plus her Lowen support was funny.
Guy-- swordmasters are cool.
Matthew-- thieves are pretty cool, too.
Legault-- cool thieves are even cooler.
Rath-- cool. Not to mention crazily good.
Dart-- he's a pirate.

Sacred Stones:

Ross-- badass. Headband and leather jacket.
Ewan-- so strong, it's retarded. He could tear anyone else apart. I could have probably let him rip through entire levels by himself. (I made him a Summoner, if you're wondering.)
Myrrh-- she's a ****ing dragon...ess... thing.
Joshua-- swordmasters are still cool. And his hat is gaudy. Gaudy, I say.
Forde-- cool guy.
Colm-- makes Neimi cry. And he's pretty cool, being a thief and all.
