mark_asphodelI've only owned this game since April of last year, after all.
Prologue-Chapter Two, First Impressions
1) Balanced early-game team. Let's see... one swordkid, one axe dude who can actually hit stuff, one archer, one magic user, and I get a staffchick on the second full chapter? Nice. And then this dude with the daggers who is pretty obviously the crutch character shows up. Am I supposed to use Sothe in combat or not?
2) Characterization. Oopsie, I accidentally skipped half the dialogue. Whups. Still, everyone seems likable enough except Sothe, who already is rubbing me the wrong way.
ETA: But Sothe thus far does not in any way compare with the irritating sack of annoyance that is Boyd.
3) Are those lover bonus or sibling bonuses that Micaiah and Sothe have going? Both? Oh, OK. Thanks, Fire Emblem.
4) Jarod is weirdly hot for an asshat who murders civilians. -_-
5) End of Chapter Two-- well, Micaiah went to jail even quicker than Leaf did. Having recently done Chapter Three of FE5, I admit to being just a hair annoyed by "Staffchick Hostage Situation LOLOLOL now the Lord goes to jail!" Just a hair.
6) Wait, I get Ilyana next chapter. Can I stop playing now?
7) This voice acting blows. Especially Micaiah's voice.

"4) Jarod is weirdly hot for an asshat who murders civilians. -_-"
And then he's so much fun to kill :P
"6) Wait, I get Ilyana next chapter. Can I stop playing now?"
What do you mean ? You can't stop playing now ! You will also get Aran in the next chapter !
Also, are you playing Normal mode ?
