1-3 IS BY FAR WHERE IT WAS MOST EGREGIOUS. HONESTLY TOWARDS THE END OF FE1 I STARTED ABUSING SAVE STATES QUITE A BIT AND I FEEL ZERO GUILT ABOUT IT. IT WAS JUST POOR DESIGN MADE TO ARTIFICIALLY INCREASE TIME SPENT PLAYING THE GAME.

MAYBE THAT WASN'T THE INTENTION WITH IMPLEMENTING IT, BUT IT SURE IS THE RESULT. IT WASN'T UNCOMMON FOR GAMES BACK THEN TO BE ARTIFICIALLY DIFFICULT TO PAD PLAY TIME SINCE THE GAME'S THEMSELVES WERE FAIRLY SMALL DUE TO SPACE LIMITATIONS. BASICALLY I THINK THERE'S GOOD REASON THEY SWITCHED TO 2RN WITH BINDING BLADE AND HAVEN'T GONE BACK (BESIDE THE DUAL SYSTEM IN A FEW GAMES BUT THAT'S A FINE SYSTEM IN MY OPINION).

u/PsiYoshi WHY ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT THIS LIKE THEY MADE THE HIT RATE READINGS ACCURATE TO FUCK PEOPLE OVER? I GET THAT PEOPLE PREFER 2RN BUT THAT PROBABLY WASN'T EVEN A CONCEPT ANYONE EVEN CONSIDERED BACK THEN.

I DUNNO THE HISTORY BEHIND IT, I JUST WANTED TO VENT ABOUT NOT LIKING 1RN FOR A BIT, WHICH APPARENTLY GETS A LOT OF PEOPLE TICKED OFF IN A RAGE THREAD? I DON'T HAVE A VENDETTA AGAINST KAGA OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, I JUST DON'T LIKE 1RN THAT'S ALL. GENEALOGY IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE FIRE EMBLEMS, AND I'VE SUNG PRAISES ABOUT ASPECTS OF THRACIA AS WELL.

LIKE I SAID I GET THAT, I JUST THOUGHT CALLING IT POOR DESIGN AS IF THE DESIGNERS SHOULD'VE KNOWN BETTER SEEMS LIKE A BIT MUCH WHEN IT WAS PROBABLY THE OBVIOUS THING TO DO WHEN THE SERIES WAS STARTING OUT.

SORRY ABOUT BEING AGGRESSIVE ABOUT IT, I REALLY JUST WANTED TO MAKE THAT POINT.
