Better than that, pairing two characters will allow the one being controlled to summon the other for an attack once the gauge is filled as well as take a hit keeping you safe. Now while boosting relationships between characters won’t be yielding babies this time around, it will give the player items that are required to craft crests to use better items and unlock skills to make characters more powerful. While it can seem like a lot of characters to have on the field as they can all level up, get new equipment and be enhanced, it fits right in with Fire Emblem’s “Dating Simulator”. Having seven units under your command was brilliant as it bring in more strategy to the equation as leaving them to their own devices will often not bring about the best of results. Sending these units over to conquer a fort, assist another unit or fort of your own or even stand guard because you need to make sure a location remains safe. What is unusual however is that Fire Emblem knocks that number up to four with another four that while you don’t have direct control over, you can still command them and the other three that can be switched between. It’s not unusual to have partners running around the field and be able to switch between them as you need to. Archers and flyers are the same principle as you’d better be careful about who exactly is on the ground if you want to keep those health bars in check. While over leveling can always overcome a disadvantage, Sword users of the same level will have a harder time with Axe wielders who will have a tough time against those of the Lance who have an easy time against swords. The core idea behind Fire Emblem’s combat system makes a solid transition as the Rock / Paper / Scissors elements work perfectly with the various units that stand in your way. Materials no longer need to be manually picked up meaning you’ll be missing a lot less and the mounted units both on a horse, pegasus or dragon are amazing to fight and fly with.
Outside of that factor, there are no issues with the gameplay and even from that point of view the modifications to the system are clear to see. Both methods work and the only noticeable difference is that the map is a bit tiny on large stages when in handheld mode.
Hyrule warriors vs fire emblem warriors switch full#
The core gameplay is solid with the tried and tested warriors engine clocked into ten whether playing full screen with a pro controller or comfortably on someone else’s couch in handheld mode.
Starting off at the end, it isn’t long until the clock is wound back on the twins and the game’s tutorials take over with some of my favorite cast members such as Chrom and Lucina making appearances. Like the above mentioned mobile title, Warriors puts into place twin royalty of an entirely new realm at the helm as the story’s protagonists. Unfortunately in this case Fire Emblem plays it a bit safe and Warriors feels like a faster take on the ideas implemented by Heroes on the mobile. Now while I came away pleased with the experience I wasn’t wowed like I’ve been in the cases of Hyrule, Berserk, Arslan or Dragon Quest. Now having a better understanding of the cast, save a world brought to peril with twin monarchs as they gain help from other heroes across time and space to fight once again against the dreaded chaos dragon.īeing a big fan of Omega Force and the fact that they’ve made Hyrule Warriors (and all the rest of the core and spinoff series) I had high expectations for their take on Fire Emblem. This morning’s review of Fire Emblem Fates was not a coincidence as I finally found the time between everything else in order to finish it before the release of Warriors.
