Let's Play Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem.
Welcome to another creative project thingy that I'll probably abandon because I'm lazy.
Let's Play Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem- Heroes of Light and Shadow.
Arceus, that's a long title.
I got to Chapter 3 on my first playthrough (Japanese), but as I just now got the Translation patch to work, I'll be playing it the in a way that I can understand it.
Here's the guy I had:
First thing to note: look at the difficulty screen.
Normal is a castle.
Hard is a mountain range.
Maniac is... I can't tell, but red tinge = Bad.
Lunatic is a field of discarded swords point down in the ground.
I find this Darkly Hilarious.
I'm playing it on Casual Hard, because I've always wanted to not have to worry about my units dying permanently. And it'll make it more fun.
Anyway... with the addition of the My Unit character, Herpestidae will not be playing this game...
This is going to be fun.
Next post: Character Creation. And Getting into Character.

Tinsley, as the hero? This is going to end up poorly, or as a comedy.

Tinsley Plays Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem.
Character Creation:
SpoilerH'llo folks. Glad you're here to bear witness to my rise to greatness. We'll be havin' a wonderful time.
Now let's see here...
Bloody 'ell, only girls can be Myrmidons? Right sexist gits, the lot of you! Mercenary it is, I suppose. Least he's wearin' purple in the Battle sprite.
Hm. Let's see if I can recreate my beauteous mug...
Wouldn't mind bein' able to smile, but I suppose it's a fair trade for all the ladies that I'll get with my sexy facial scarring.
Let's see...
I guess bein' the son of a famous swordsman counts.
Gimme a minute to unzip and see for your-
I have to choose from a list, don't I?
Awfully limited selection, but that's about right, innit?
Yeah, that's definitely the best option.
SpoilerSo Here I am mindin' my own business when I'm knocked askance by this clumsy sod of a-
... Layla?
Oh, no, Layla had red hair. And she's probably never going to be that stacked.
Wouldn't you know it, she starts chatting me up immediately, askin' if I'm here for the knight training.
Chicks dig the knightly types, y'know? Anyway, greetings, Lady Katarina, I-
How... how do you know my name?
That little blue box right there. I'm kind of psychic.R Button an' all that.
The R Button? You can use that?
Yep. As well as the L, X, and Y buttons. I'm multitalented. Just call me Sir Tinsley.
Oh, you know she covets the appendage. It's the scar. Got to be.
Anyway, I'm not the only knight hopeful in the building. Er... outside the building.
Rodu? What the bloody hell kind of name is that?
Oh, that's supposed to be a y. Silly translators. Though "Rody" is pretty derpy-sounding all the same.
We follow the ambiguously gay duo to the training grounds.
I'm one of two guys with a girl at his arm, so I'm happy.
Well, fair maiden, it seems as if we're in this one together.
And... she can't fight. Well, more XP for me!
Let's have a look at my stats and...
Holy...
Dat. Speed. Hope I get some decent Strength gains though.
First guy goes down easy enough. Though I have to take a Vulnerary (it's applied, just so you know. The confusion came from a localization fiasco. Not as bad as the Agunimon incident, but yeah) in leiu of attacking so Jagen doesn't off me on the retaliate
Yes. Yes you have.
Not bad, not bad.
Katarina jumps into my arms, squealing.
I suppose it's too early for a spur-of-the-moment kiss?
Amazingly enough, she obliges. It's a kiss on the nose, but we have to start somewhere, right?

Re: Let's Play Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem.
The only thing that quieted my inner Layla cursing Tinsley out for his comment is my laughter at it.
He plays such a nice big brother role to her doesn't he XD
I can't wait to see what other comments Tinsley will make about the other Protect the Prince guys.Ravena never returned. Whoops

I will not remove this from my signature due to not wanting to erase it was there. But I will address this at the time was meant to be a joke and both me and Illven both acknowledge it shouldn't have been a joke but we simply did not know better at the time. We have both grown as people and would never make this kinda joke again.

Tinsley Plays Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem.
History of the game:
Spoiler
Bo-ring
Spoiler
Do we share quarters?
Tinsley! Behave yourself!She gives me a playful box on the ear. Besides, it's not just the two of us.
Luke steps up to take the spot, and I'm personally glad of the option. But... Katarina...
What, me? No!
Did... did she just... insinuate something?
Uh, thanks for the vote of er... confidence, but I'm honestly not fit to lead a horse to water.
Plus, he can use the R-Button! Of course he's the best option.
It's really not that...
I'm not sure how I responded, but judging from...
that... I'm betting someone's mother got insulted. Of course, I'm stuck with the archer. Whassisname, again?
Oi! Bowan! You're plum outta luck, it looks like. Go park y'self on a fort 'n hope he doesn't gank you.
It's Ryan
Luke guns straight for me, but I'm too fast for the blighter and take him down a few pegs.
Cool. Oi, Bowan, we're flanking. Use your sneak attack!
Oh, come on, that ain't fair.
Oi! you've no business talkin' to Bowan like that y' wanker!
My name is Ry-
Shut up, Bowan!
Serves y'right, you bully.
Of course, Rody ain't movin' from his spot, so we've got to take the fight to him.
Y'mother's already seen me ability. And it wasn't just her hands.
What'd you just-
Just a bit o' pre-battle banter. Think nothing of it. I'm sure your mother is chaste as a nun.
He comes after me again, and I knock him down enough that Bowan can finish him off.
[color="Indigo]No! Wait, I- [/color]
... we're all dead.
Y'know what you need? A nickname to strike fear into the hearts of our enemies
At least he's got his priorities in order.
... You're not very bright are you?

Re: Let's Play Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem.
He's got Katarina to smack him around some. Though if this:
is anything to go by, chances are he'll end up corrupting her. Seriously, I had no idea I'd screenshotted her mid-blink until I was chopping off the bottom half of the screen. Also, I just spent my night looking for Hacking Tools to change Ryan to "Bowan" permanently, But alas, there are none.

I will say that even though I don't know the history of the character, you've done a pretty good job of us not neeeding to know (I guess). I'm enjoying it regardless.

Tinsley Plays Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem. And Herpestidae Spazzes.
O_O
I... wow. I feel like I'm in the presence of royalty. The LP Goddess herself has graced this thread with her presence. I just... what...
I think he's trying to say "Thanks for the Compliment."
Anyway... On with the show!
Spoiler
Yes Sah! We're still gonna die
Hey, he kind of looks like Icarus. We have a whole Mock battle here, and we're fighting...
Huh. Woulda sworn her name was Shiida. And how's she a princess if she hasn't married... Ooooh.
What are the kids saying these days? is it 'Get all up in that?'
Here's our map...
And I'm off!
What, that's my critical hit, a cheap lens flare effect? Where's the ?
I suppose is more appropriate, and even that's sufficiently physics-defying.
Can't a bloke at least get an unnecessary weapon twirl?
But that? That I can't argue with.
Cor Blimey, Jolly good show, Bowan!
My name is... aw, forget it!
On the enemy turn, the Mercenary comes for me, and I give twice as good as I get. But then again, I always do.
And Caeda proves herself a coward. Very unbecoming of our future queen.
Bowan puts his hunting skills to good use and knocks Caeda around a bit, then Rody finishes her off.
And then...
That's the second time in as many days that a woman has said something vaguely suggestive with their eyes closed. The facial scarring is too powerful.
Is that... allowed?
Are you offering? There's an opening on my group for a Meat Shield.
No.
Jeez, what's it take to make this guy crack?

Tinsley Plays Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem.
Spoiler
What's eatin' ya, o great Dawn Paladin?
One: That's never going to catch on. Two: When I get the gold, I'll send for my friend Lizzie so she can wipe that fantasy out of your head permanently. All the same, I'll see about gettin' us a healer anyways.
When I recover from a rather impressive laughing fit, it turns out that training's started again.
There's the map:
What... How the ruddy hell-?
What kind of axeman is this?
Oh, right, Hard mode. Carry on.
Thankfully, the Random Number Goddess has graciously accepted my burnt offerings.
Luke's the only one who gets an attack in this turn, because keeping everyone out of the Sniper's range is far more important than getting XP right now.
That smarts.
But I bet that smarted a bit more.
And now we've got a Sniper to Trap.
Rody handles one of the Mercenaries...
I take out the Archer...
And Stage 1 of Operation: Box-In is complete!
For the record, the sniper hits me for 11 damage.
Stage 2 has proven just as effective
Now... either Bowan or Luke can get the kill... Let's do a bit o' future Gazin' shall we?
Equal stat gains... Eh, I've known Bowan for longer.
Pause for dramatic effect....
Awesome! Also: That's what she said.
Then she said that!
And that was... my... response?
The innuendo chain continues unbroken. I just have no comment.
Later:
I'm lost in the castle, and happen upon...
Huh. I thought she'd died in the previous game.
Why hasn't Marth given your tiara back?
He wears it during Melee tournaments. It's why his hitboxes are so broken.
Ah. Well, nice seein' Ya!
Same.
See about gettin' me one o' them tiaras yeah?
No.
Bummer.

Re: Let's Play Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem.
...Maybe she is a zombie.
You know...All things considered, Shadow Dragon really almost encouraged you to just let people die left and right. That means that almost every character who was in Shadow Dragon could have died....
What if they're all zombies?
(I had this problem with Radiant Dawn, too, but at least Path of Radiance doesn't offer you additional chapters for your senseless killing of your own followers.)Last edited by Deme; 2012-11-25 at 08:12 PM.

Re: Let's Play Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem.
It was more a joke about me not actually finishing Shadow Dragon because I stopped caring.
Also, This is the kind of silliness Marth's hitboxes do in Melee.

Tinsley Plays Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem.
Spoiler
Sure is.
Hehe...
See, Luc's usually the one who goes about traipsin' through forests. Usually in an overly angsty manner but... yeah, I'm a city kid. Not used to all this... foliage.
Note that I'm not the one who elected me leader...
What? What happened?
Not anymore. Bowan, you and the horsemen take he north. Other Bowan, you're with me. Caeda... er... don't get Shot, I guess.
CHARGE!
Too slow.
The Thief (Why is that the only dark-skinned battle sprite?) goes after Bowan, and Luke gets hit for half damage, but takes out the Bandit anyhow.
Still, we're in a bad way what with all these archers, but then my favorite melody starts playing.
Oi! No time for recruitment conversations, just start killin' stuff, yeah?
As it turns out, his intervention was largely unnecessary.
In the end, we're too late to save the village, but I'll take these odds anyday.
Funny. I was gonna say the same thing to you.
In-Training.
Erm... So are we?
One Cliche "We're Lost" Montage Later:
I have an inquiry as to the perks of being a member of the Royal Guard...
And Judging from the look on your face, answering it would stress my brain. Good day.
Aw, I wanted to see 'im fluster.
Later:
No. No, I'm good.
I... couldn't help but notice how you acted today. You took charge and led us to victory. I knew I made the right choice for commander.
Oh... stop it, it was nothing.
No, it wasn't. I... I saw the look in your eye, it was one of righteous fury, heroic resolve, the drive to achieve your goal! That's the making of a true knight!
Oh, come off it, "righteous fury." I was just a bit hungry, is all. Guys are always hungry.
I know a hint when I see one. I've got a date! And a hot one at that!

Spoiler
And she couldn't tell he was a guy?
Layla was a bit... thick at times. Not stupid, just... it was hard for her to see the obvious. And for the record, it took me about... a week? to figure it out myself.
Watched "her" walk away?
No Comment
Oh, dear, look at the time! I totally forgot!
We've got, like an hour before training starts. What are you up to?
So we're recruitin'. Make sure you don't offer her too much. If she wants to stay, we're probably her only choice, and she knows it.
Since when were you this shrewd?
You've got a lot to learn about me.
Really, now?
I'll... keep that in mind.
... I expected an Armor Knight.
Oi! That'd be me, luv.
None for Merric, I see.
There's the map...
Plan is basically "Fall back and don't Provoke Ogma.
And It worked!
Wrys manages to level up from healin' us so often...
Just about what I expected.
I land a critical on Ogma so Luke can take him out.
And from there, it's all of us against an archer. Guess what happens.
Or Savestates.
What?
Nothing.
Later:
Well, obviously my last job guardin' a prince didn't work out so well... I'm not sure. Maybe it'll work out in the end?
Yeah, we make a good team, don't we?
Yeah, but... What if we were more than a team?
I'd have to be thicker than a tree stump to not get her meaning, even without the blush she's sporting.
Y'mean... like... with me with me?
She nods.
Look, Kat... Katarina. Don't take this the wrong way, you're a sweet girl, but I... I've got a lot going on right now and... this is a lot to think about.
No, wait, just a-
Oh, bugger it all.

Re: Let's Play Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem.
Nope, that's Mt. There doesn't seem to be a weight system in this game. So we have less crit, but more general damage. The real nerf is in the durability, but since this is the kind of thing you save for bosses...
LPs that I like to think I will get back to some day.
