Forums - Nintendo - Character development in Shadow Dragon (mad ending spoilers)

Having been duly warned by the title, i just wanted to voice my vague amusement at the fact that the last thirty seconds' worth of dialogue in Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon contained more character development than the preceding 26 hours of gameplay. The whole Marth/Caeda love story, being broached and resolved in that one act, showed more about Marth's internal character than the rest of the game put together. First, it gave Caeda her first speaking role since back in Chapter 1, and then showed Marth's insecurities and social graces (or lack thereof), in something that seems typical for this Japanese story

 

I don't know, it was just amusing, like they tried to shoehorn actual character development in at the very last second, before you put the game down.

Loved the final battle though, even if Medeus himself was a bit of a pushover (They definitely overpowered Falchion, moreso than Medeus was overpowered)



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

well i'm only on like chapter 11 or something probably but wow I don't get the huge hubub about fire emblem games being remade. I enjoyed FE8 a ton more than this, and enjoying 9 way more as well. Almost done with 9.


Shadow Dragon seems to have like no story going, no character talking or anything going on. Its like your castle is taken, and you just move around the world fighting people. The GC and Wii game are so much better told and makes you care about your characters versus just "oooh he looks cool or he has good stats" Maybe it gets better, but so far FE1
