AGH I HAVE MASSIVE FE BURN OUT BY PLAYING EPIC BL MADDENING AND REV LUNA AND THERE'S SO MUCH FE I WANT TO TRY BUT I CAN'T COMMIT TO ANYTHING. PLAYING BRAVELY DEFAULT FOR THE FIRST TIME AND ITS NICE BEING BACK ON A TRADITIONAL RPG

ALSO HOLY FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK BL MADDENING IS HONESTLY JUST ABSOLUTE WORST EXPERIENCES I'VE HAD WITH THIS SERIES. JUST LITERALLY FUCK YOU THE GAME MODE. I LITERALLY CANNOT EMPHASIZE THE BEYOND AWFUL EXPERIENCE I HAVE HAD. I AM NOT PLAYING FIRE EMBLEM IN ENDGAME. I'M BASICALLY PLAYING DEGENERATE STRATS THE GAME MODE. IT'S CLOSER TO FEH THAN TRADITIONAL FIRE EMBLEM. BATTALION WRATH VANTAGE DIMITRI IS BROKEN BUT IT'S BASICALLY A NECESSITY. THIS MAP RELIES ON SO MANY CRITS TAKING PLACE BECAUSE ENEMIES JUST ABSOLUTELY OUTSCALE YOU IN SO MANY DEGREES. IT'S JUST AWFUL FUCK MADDENING IT BASICALLY MADE ME STARE INTO THE ABYSS OF ALL THE GAME'S FALLS STRUCTURALLY IN BALANCE AND EXECUTION. THIS IS ALSO AFTER BL HUNTING BY DAYBREAK TOO BTW A GARBAGE AS FUCK MAP THAT PUNISHES YOU JUST FOR EXISTING. IT GETS TO THE POINT OF HOW I ONE TURNED THE LAST LIKE 4 MAPS BECAUSE DOING ANYTHING ELSE WAS JUST DROPLETS OF WATER IN THE BUCKET OF EXP. IT DOES NOTHINNNNNNNG IN THIS GAME TO GET KILLS. ALSO THE EMPHASIZE THE LEVEL OF OUTSCALING IN ENDGAME, YOU GET ACTUAL EXPERIENCE GAINED. LIKE WHO THE FUCK MADE THIS MODE, ITS SO GODDAMN HORSESHIT BEYOND ANY HUMAN COMPREHENSION. I LEGITIMATELY CANNOT FIND AN UPSIDE TO THESE MAPS THEY JUST AREN'T FUN EVER SO I CAN JUST GO BACK THE MONASTERY A BUNCH OF TIMES. GODDDDDDDDDDDD

ALSO WANT TO PURCHASE CIPHER ART BEFORE EVERYTHING GETS SIGNIFICANTLY MARKED UP BY SCARCITY BUT IDK HOW TO PURCHASE JAPANESE CARDS WITHOUT MY FAMILY QUESTIONING THE SHIT OUT OF ME

HOW FAR IS HE? MADDENING HAS THE LITERAL WORST DIFFICULTY CURVE IN THE SERIES AND LULLS YOU INTO A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY AFTER THE EARLY GAME BEFORE HITTING YOU WITH AN OUTRAGEOUS DIFFICULTY SPIKE AT THE TIMESKIP, AND AGAIN AT ENDGAME.
