[Let’s Talk] What are you playing? – February 2017

Since there was so much to talk about in January, we didn’t really have a chance to dedicate a Let’s Talk topic to the games everyone is actually playing. So now we want to know: what has your attention right now? Have you started up something new recently? Or maybe you’re continuing something you started a little while back? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments below!

Highlights from last week’s topic: Fire Emblem Heroes impressions

I’m on the fourth chapter right now and have completed the normal and hard mode levels for 1-3. I haven’t bought anything, nor do I plan to. It’s a fun game. I’ve never played Fire Emblem because the gameplay looked tedious, but this app may get me to dive into the series. I’ll have to play some more and think some more.

As someone who plays a lot of gacha games but stays F2P, I’m really liking what Fire Emblem Heroes has done so far. Obviously the well of story mode orbs will run dry soon, but the game is quite generous with orbs right now, making it very attractive for F2P players. Having rolling gacha is nice too, even if my luck has been kinda bad in only getting a single 5-star (Catria).

The actual gameplay is fun; essentially normal Fire Emblem but on a smaller scale. I was surprised that some of the later chapters and difficulties have actually given me a challenge. It might help if I had any axe-wielders other than Anna, but I’ve never seen a green summon stone. I’m running the archer and thief party over here with all the grey summon stones RNG throws at me.

My main concern with the game is the content. I hope they keep a steady stream of new maps coming so that it doesn’t get boring just running the Training Tower over and over while waiting for something new. Weekly events like in Final Fantasy Record Keeper would be nice, but guess we’ll see moving forward!

Only 3 lunatic missions left. Surprised at how easy it is to get to endgame without purchasing anything.
Fun game.

Never really played a Fire Emblem game before, so when I downloaded this and started playing I was surprised that I actually liked it…like allot. It’s addicting, nuff said.
