antster1983 Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 So... I never got round to pre-ordering the game. Too many things got in the way. Plus my GameCube died So it'll have to wait until I get another GameCube. Here's a question to anyone who has this game: is Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance worth getting?
Guest Ray Falling Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 So... I never got round to pre-ordering the game. Too many things got in the way. Plus my GameCube died So it'll have to wait until I get another GameCube. Here's a question to anyone who has this game: is Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance worth getting? Yes it is...but then again theres a chance you may not like it. I'm really enjoying it still. I'm on my second play through and I'm getting alot faster too, its great fun and I actually think I'll try to get al them secret characters even if it means finishing the game 15 times n_n. I think I can manage in under 15 hours now 0_0.
antster1983 Posted November 8, 2005 Posted November 8, 2005 Hey I like Fire Emblem! I'm still playing the first GBA game - I'm on chapter 26x, trying not to get anyone killed - and failing miserably every time! Doesn't stop me trying though
Guest Ray Falling Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 n_n then yes you will love this one
diddy Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 I've always wondered how they got all those different names for all of the games! I mean there just so many people, but then again i do guess there are heaps of names across all languages. Whats the name of the blue-haired main character in the Path of Radiance. I forgot already.
Sprout Posted November 11, 2005 Author Posted November 11, 2005 Whats the name of the blue-haired main character in the Path of Radiance. I forgot already. The main man of Path of Radience is called Ike.
Sooj Posted November 12, 2005 Posted November 12, 2005 I'm now just over 24 hours into the game. Chapter 26 I believe. So far, I have lots of charcters and up until now none of them have died. The storyline is one of the best part of the game and to be honest it kind of surprised me. Nintendo being Nintendo rely more on Gameplay that storyline, Nintendo games usually have weak storys but this time, Path of Radience I believe has a really strong one plus great gameplay. A great game, you must get it now - everyone!
ThePigMarcher Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Damn you people , ordered this well over a week ago from CDWOW and the muppets haven't even dispatched it yet. Getting desperate to play this thing , so it looks like back to Gameplay for me.
Sprout Posted November 19, 2005 Author Posted November 19, 2005 Yes, both Fire Emblems have been out since the 4th of November.
ThePigMarcher Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 I was trying to be clever/greedy* and earn extra cashback on my Egg card by using cdwow , that will teach me. * delete as applicable
Domstercool Posted November 19, 2005 Posted November 19, 2005 Hit Chapter 19 today, also gone past 15 hours on the clock and still enjoying the game to bits. Boyd and Mia really kick arse once you get them to level 21 and their class change. GO Swordmaster and Warrior!
ThePigMarcher Posted November 23, 2005 Posted November 23, 2005 Finally arrived yesterday (thank you to the ever reliable gameplay) , and have put a couple of hours into it - just starting chapter 3 - and I think I will enjoy this game immensly. Obviously , a little slow to start with , but the proposed depth on offer has me eager to explore this game a lot more. A worthwhile purchase. Incidently , a word of warning to you all , avoid CDWOW at all costs , not only did they botch up my order for this game , they have also buggered my order for the new SOAD album , avoid them like the plague.
Domstercool Posted November 24, 2005 Posted November 24, 2005 Just completed it about 5 mins ago. Top quality strategy RPG game. I took me past 26 hours of gaming to finish it. Last battle I lost a couple of my guys but because it was the last it didn't really matter, I just wanted to finish it and see the ending. Now what do I play?
Kotey Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 Now that you've finished it you need to play all over again!! That's what you do to a game that's so addictive. I thoroughly enjoyed Fire Emblem 7 and 8 (though I don't own them) and I have spent a few hours on 4 and 5 but didn't get so far because of the language barrier. Finally, this weekend, my sis is gonna drop down from the US with my very own copy of FE: Path of Radiance!!! I can't wait!! It's been a long wait (the trouble with living in Africa) but it's been worth it. Think (Gladius x 2.5 x teH MEGATON!!11) = FE:PoR!!!!
thomaschung Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 I got mine from CDWOW by Nectar Points redemption. They are quite slow, though I found out the game shipped from Hong Kong, so that is why it takes so long. Can't complain too much I guess for not paying for it. The game is brilliant, I've rarely been so hooked on a game. I literally play the game for 3 or 4 hours a time, because some of the battles require quite a bit of strategy and planning. I'm on Chapter 20 and played for nearly 40 hours already. And that doesn't include the 5 or 6 times i messed up and restarted chapters. Must buy for sure. Miles better than Advance Wars.
ThePigMarcher Posted December 8, 2005 Posted December 8, 2005 How the hell are you people managing to beat it in around 26-28 hours. I finally got through it yesterday (bloody fantastic game) , and it took me 43 hours on Normal difficulty. Surely I don't suck that bad at games or maybe I do. Now intend to go through it on Hard mode.
thomaschung Posted December 8, 2005 Posted December 8, 2005 looks like i'm way behind you. 40+ hours and still counting.
sumal Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 Dont waste your time training mia she sucks. She has very low defence and a low attak, at least in my game. I beat the game like 3 days ago . Have fun playing it.
The-Ironflame Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 Erm.. my Mia has 21 Str and Speed 30 so she's practically dodges everything.
Fierce_LiNk Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 I think this thread has run its course, and it shall now be de-stickified.
darksnowman Posted January 4, 2006 Posted January 4, 2006 I began my quest along the Pth of Radiance this afternoon... Ive only done the first chapter and have it saved to restart the second. Im on easy and the Tutorials are a little tedious but I know that they are probably best seen out as itll be better in the long run to know what Im doing. Its my first Fire Emblem game, my impressions are that its a medievel version of Advance Wars, and thats far from being a bad thing! My GameCubes got so much life left in it this year, who said it was dying out?!
Sprout Posted February 2, 2006 Author Posted February 2, 2006 Sorry for reviving a (very) old topic, but for my Birthday, I finally got Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. I just thought I'd give my opinion is all. It's bloody brilliant. So far, I'm up to chapter 15, and I'm loving every second of it. So far, my Soren, Boyd and Oscar have been given class upgrades, and most of the units are close to upgrading. Not Marcia and Jill though. Flying units are such a pain to raise... The storyline is as great as you'd expect from a Fire Emblem game. Certain support conversations can be hilarious, and the cutscenes you get are absolutely amazing. You've done it again Intelligent Systems. Keep making the awesome games. Now, chapter 15 awaits me. To battle! Hiyaaaaa!
darkrifts Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Just completed it about 5 mins ago. Top quality strategy RPG game. I took me past 26 hours of gaming to finish it. Last battle I lost a couple of my guys but because it was the last it didn't really matter, I just wanted to finish it and see the ending. Now what do I play? you can unlock seceret people if you keep playing the game. i think you can get the black knight if you beat the game 15 times so keep tring. you get other charicters as you go along. i think you get one after your 7th win as well, or you can connect it to your GBA fire emblem 7 and 8 (the one with lyn, eliwood and hector is number 7 aint it?). either way i hope i have helped
thomaschung Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Finally completed the game for 2nd time, this time on hard difficulty. definitely worth 2nd play through to get all the characters on your side you missed the 1st time. brilliant spent way over 100 hours on this game.
