2. I didn't think that someone would play Fire Emblem so conservatively. Iron weapons are readily available for cheap prices and you can keep using steel and silver weapons when the situation demands it, because by the time those would run out, you can buy steel and silver without problems. One thing I like to do on Fire Emblem replays is to forego buying any weapons/staves while still clearing the maps of all enemies. Most games have enough free weapons to make it feasible on more than just the lowest difficulty setting.

The plan was to save the stronger weapons for later when I needed them. But that never really happened.
I also may have been in need of more weapon usage than some players, because I maxed out the relationship between every character pair. And attacking with a weapon was a consistent way of doing that, so I had to buy a lot of cheap weapons. Perhaps I was lower in gold than I should have been because of that, or worried that I would be if I spent too much on stronger weapons.

I do this in a lot of games. In Final Fantasy I doubt I've ever used a Megalixir. Saving it for a rainy day that never comes.
I realize that by doing this, I miss out on the fun of using those items. That's why the sound of unbreakable versions of more weapons in the next BOTW sounds good to me.

I'm the same way. I only use Megaexilirs when fighting the final boss. I save magnum bullets for the final boss in Resident Evil. I tend not to use Str Up, Mag Up type items until the end game too.  I'm usually very stingy with consumables in general.
