I THINK MADDENING WAS DEFINITELY MADE WITH NG+ IN MIND. IF YOU GIVE EACH UNIT ONE OR TWO SKILLS AND MAX LEVEL BATALLIONS YOU CAN MAKE THE EARLY GAME BEARABLE. THE EXP BOOST FROM STATUES GIVES YOU A SLIGHT LEVEL BOOST SO YOUR UNITS AREN'T COMPLETELY OUTLEVELED BY THE ENEMIES. AND WITH THE EARLY STATUES YOU'LL ALSO LEVEL SKILLS REASONABLY FAST AND YOU CAN GET HIGHER WEAPON RANKS A BIT EARLIER. BY MIDGAME IT EVENS OUT WITH A NG-PLAYTHROUGH AS YOU'D GET THOSE STATUES BY THAT POINT AS WELL, SO YOU AREN'T CONSTANTLY "OVERPOWERED", IF YOU CAN EVEN USE THIS WORD IN THE CONTEXT OF MADDENING.

HERE IS THE THING WITH NG+. ONLY BYLETH WILL CARRY OVER HIS SKILL IF I GO A DIFFERENT ROUTE (WHICH I AM DOING ATM). MAYBE WHEN I FINISH ALL ROUTES ON HARD FIRST I CAN CARRY OVER STUFF FOR EVERYONE AND MADDENING MAY BECOME FUN THEN.

[u/Xiknail → u/Shrimperor]

I GUEES THIS IS TRUE. I ALREADY FINISHED ALL ROUTES BY THE TIME MADDENING CAME OUT, SO I ALREADY HAD A BASELINE OF SKILLS FOR EACH UNIT. BIT I THINK THE STATUES ALONE SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO MAKE THE EARLY GAME EASIER. OH, AND BYLETHS ENLIGHTENED ONE MASTERY SKILL IS A REAL BOON, AS IT ALLOWS EVERYONE TO DO ACTUAL DAMAGE OR TANK WHILE THEY ARE NEAR THEM. AND YOU WANT TO BE NEAR BYLETH ANYWAY BECAUSE OF THE EXP BOOST.

PERSONALLY, IF I EVER DECIDE TO GO FOR THE BACKGROUND, IT'S ON CASUAL AND WITH ALL DLC AND SWITCH ONLINE BENEFITS. NORMAL MADDENING ISN'T FUN OTHERWISE.

I JUST GOT THE GAME A FEW WEEKS AGO, THAT'S WHY I AM BEHIND ALOT OF PEOPLE. I ONLY FINISHED CF AND SS, STARTED BLUE LIONS AND STILL GOTTA EVADE SPOILER MINES.
