I like that he's not perfect while others are the same reused archtypes. Elibe best continent.

Yeah, I liken him to the king in chess. I feel like him being weak adds to a lot of chapters, and then by the endgame, he gets a sword that makes him bullshit OP anyways, so...

He gets stuck at level 20 like ten chapters before he promotes, and then sucks up XP from other units since I always have to use him for SOMETHING to help them out

Binding Blade has some iffy gameplay. I hope the rumors of a remake are true because it could really use some tweaks. I guess Roy's alright.

He's way too weak for a lord. He doesn't have the utility or support that lords like Leif or Micaiah give, but isn't as strong as lords like Eliwood, Chrom, or Kamui who can all at least hold their own. His Rapier is also bugged. All Roy needs to be fixed is a simple change and that's letting promote at chapter 16.

>>basically competing with Leif for worst lord, with a quarter of Leif's utility in spite of their horrendous growths
The only people who consider Leif a shit lord never played FE5. The only reason he's considered bad is because his growths are low but the thing is FE5 has low stat caps so it balances out. He just isn't useful in the way someone used to an overpowered lord would expect out of him. The likes of Lyn, Eliwood, and Micaiah are much worse than him. They either have noodle arms or in the case of Micaiah is fucked by the game's shitty unit balance and hatred towards mages.

>entire fanbase is just Smashfag secondaries

This. I have someone I know constantly telling how good Roy is with his fiery hair and sword in Smash Bros. When in actuality, he's just a worse version of Marth in every possible way in all games they appear in. At least Leif shows some sort of growth in both FE5 and FE4.

>while others are the same reused archtypes
He's literally 'red marth but worse' in every game in which he appears until Fire Emblem Heroes, and even then he just became what his father should've been the whole time.
Roy gets a little more shit than he deserves but that's a pretty garbage defense.

He's not even similar to Marth. What is this meme? Are you a Smashfag who didn't even play FE6?

bump?

promotes to late

Nobody cares about Roy and following the previous threads we were supposed to have a Leo thread

Will this do?

Oh true. Maybe we can have a Binding mini thread at least? What's your favourite map?

I never played it

No, go fuck yourself. If you want a FE thread try putting "fire emblem" and a discussion-starter in the OP instead of a shitpost.

agreed.

Leif can carry hard even with mediocre stats, and is the best candidate for most statboosters as he's the only character playable in every map and fatigue immune. He provides supports, has the amazing light brand, and overall will carry ass harder than most lords if needed, despite his lame promotion and slow start.

Roy will never be able to effectively fight the million lance bosses in his game, and his rapier breaks easily.

We just had four Fire Emblem threads in a row with the same OP that led to decent discussion...

Smashfags have roused my contempt for Roy and by extension BB. Anyone who says "Our Boy" both ironically or unironically should be mauled.

And I don't even get why he even has a fanbase to begin with from Smash since he's so irredeemably shit. It's not like Pichufags or Young Linkfags were a thing ever, why is there Royfags?

Pichu and Young Link are lame, Roy has cool fire sword

Oh. Well you should! Its really fun despite some flaws like same turn reinforcements or very bland characters. Map structure is generally stellar despite all of them being seize, though it does make mutiple playthroughs simliar since even the branching path are seize.

pichu was a joke, toon link replaced young link

Roy is at least a seperate person from Marth, and actually stars in a game.

>map structure is generally stellar
yeah if you skip sacae like a good man should.

I always told myself I'd play it once I finish FE7, the problem is everytime I've started playing FE7 I ended up dropping it because of one reason or another unrelated to the game itself

>This will be the time I won't consult a guide or the wiki on my playthrough!
>Inevitably checks it when I feel paranoid about missing out something important or raising a shitty character

This has happened for two FE games so far. Not realizing I had to do the gaiden chapters to get the true ending for Binding Blade fucked me up bruh

It's not like anyone in the west knew that until years later though.

Elibefags roused my contempt for Roy and by extension BB and FE7. They're only matched by Conquestfags in terms of obnoxious behavior.

Yeah sacae maps aren't really fun to play. That's why I said generally. I take the forest and castle of Ilian then go through nomad hell ever again.

Well user I hope you finish it some day Blazing is my second favourite and I replay it a lot. I think 7 is one of the best in the series desu.

And before some faggot started making threads with a shitpost OP there were plenty of FE threads with decent discussion. The issue is that discussion threads have now been merged with shitpost threads, while they were formerly kept separate.

Try again some other time.

fire emblem is garbage. there's your flaw.

Just one? Should it be about how horrible an excuse of a lord he is, about how much of a bland boy hero he is or about how most of his popularity doesn't even come from his franchise?

Try Shadow Dragon. It's perfect for not looking things up and doing an ironman, because some maps only unlock if you have a low amount of characters. If you play well and recruit everyone and don't die, you don't get access to the map but you don't need them anyway, and if you mess up and miss characters/have characters die, then you get extra maps to fill out your missing slots.

The OP's are just joke posts. Its just a silly way of making a thread mainly for Fates.

No they weren't, don't lie to yourself.

This is my wife, Sakura. Do you mind if a blogpost about her?

His asshole isnt on my erect cock

Playing Awakening. Should I keep Nowi as a Manakete?

No. It's her least optimal class. Make her a mage.

Undeniably the worst Lord in the franchise gameplay-wise. Doesn't even provide supportive values like Micaiah either.

His game has garbage unit balance and bullshit progression requirements making it unfun to play as.

Inferior to Eliwood personality-wise and gameplay-wise in every way.

Gary Stu generic shounen harem protagonist who doesn't deserve anyone.

Obnoxious Smashbabbies fanbase.

I'd say Chrom is the most well-balanced Lord in the series. His growths are consistent and his bases are fine, but he's never OP. Eirika's Route!Eirika is a close second though her bases are a bit more iffy.

I prefer balanced Lords like him or supportive Lords like Micaiah instead of juggernauts like Ephraim or Hector.

weak as hell. Hate dragging him around. Made FE6 even more of a slog
