half implimented sounds about right. the weapon forging system should have reset the weapon durability or possibly had a way of adjusting the durability as well. Forge option should in my opinion credit some cost back to the player for undesirable weapon adjustments.

i did miss the rescue feature.

I also missed the Recruit class, where you could gain them 5 levels and then they get a normal base class.

and i suppose i would feel a bit more interested in characters if there were support convos as opposed to basing initial interest on stats and asthetic.

the reclass was a nice change, i turned Lena into a mage off the bat as i already had moulder as a healer. however if i can change that i would have also liked to have changed a few other things around too, like the name ogma (yuck). or some of the character portraits so that they resemble someone of the appropriate gender, or at least someone who looks halfway cool.

I also missed Player Character units having their own color scheme. these orange-peachy colored paladins are fail against Seth or Franz colors.

I really don’t understand why people get so up in arms about localization of names, as you stated things like Lena/Rena are reasonable and Navarre/Nabar is pushing it a little. You should really throw a fit if Marth’s name gets changed to something like Matthew (or any other character’s name gets butchered in that extreme way).

The only thing that this game really threw me off with is the decision to not have any rescuing or shoving. Lord knows I’ve restarted my game furiously because of that.

Don’t worry, sweetie. I’ll moan and foam my mouth about the localization of the names in your stead! Lord knows I’ve done it enough as is. ^__^
