Geek on Stun

My status bar runneth over

I'm playing Fire Emblem almost every day on the way too and from work (that is, when I don't feel like puking on the shuttle). I'm surprisingly uninterested in it, but will probably see it to completion. While it's rare for me to actually finish a game, I almost never fail to complete GBA games, mostly due to the fact that I have a lot of time to dedicate to portable gaming.

However, unless things change gameplay-wise, Fire Emblem is in danger of leaving the Game Boy unfinished. I keep going back and forth on how I feel about it. I love the animation, and the Advance Wars-style of gameplay, but dislike the save system. I enjoy the "weapon triangle" structure, but never really liked wizards and knights.

I also can't shake the feeling that I'm playing Progress Quest with nicer graphics. Hell, I AM playing Progress Quest. My Half Orc Tongueblade Ibonish is doing pretty well for himself, considering the realm I'm in.
