I thought this was going to be brought up, but there was something I ran into earlier this week. I was looking up the terrain movement in FE1, and every single class (except fliers share the same) has a slightly different move types. A lot only differ by a small amount (2 vs 3 forest cost, or 4 vs 5 river cost) The reason I ran into this because as a joke I was going to remake Three Houses using FE1 mechanics (in SRPG studio). When I went to implement the movement types, it turned out FE1 had more movement types than SRPG studio supported. You need 22 movement classes, and SRPG studio only supports 12. As opposed to 3 Houses which only has 4 different move types (infantry, forest, flier, mounted).

I love FE1 and its brokenness is just part of it! A few follow-ups and other fun details about it that were missed or not *strictly* 100% accurate: 1. Marth won't be targeted "no matter what," the game still checks to see if it will deal 0 damage. If that's the case, it will pick other targets, but otherwise yes, it's Marth 100% of the time if he's a valid target. 2. It's all promotion items that can be used to boost manakete defense, not just the knight crest, though the knight crest is the first one you have access to (either that or the hero medal) so it's the one most often used for the manakete defense glitch. 3. Enemy mages are hard-coded to not attack units that have been given a Talisman, even if they are using a spell that could still deal damage, like Swarm, Bolganone or Thoron. So the res boost only directly applies on player phase. 4. Generals shouldn't be considered upgrades to armor knights, technically they're actually DOWNGRADES because they are locked to swords, while armor knights can use both swords and lances. They do have better class bases though. 5. If you think 30 turns of straight reinforcements is a lot, try 76 turns for the final map. It's a horrible slog for dumb challenge runs like Marth solo. I'd never heard of the Aum/Hammerne glitch before though, so learn something new every day!

Oh! I’m the one who discovered that Aum staff glitch! Thank you for sharing it on here and learning more in detail about how it works! One thing to note is that I was playing on the Famicom Online version of FE1 so it should work for all versions of the game. Also one glitch I had heard about with the chapter where you recruit Samson/Arron on is that if you recruit one, kill them, then visit the other village to recruit the other (and get Xane), it can cause a lot of weird glitches too. (Possibly some sort of memory overflow) And depending on the position on the X-axis of the last recruited unit (Arron, Samson, or Xane), it will change them into a different unit too, similarly to the Aum staff glitch.

FE1 definitely has more janky stuff. I've seen someone else mention the credits warp as a glitch, but it isn't. It's an intended debug feature for the devs to check if the credits worked properly without having to replay the game the entire time. After every chapter you get the "Do you want to save?" prompt, say No, then press Up, Down, Left, Right, Up, A to get to the sound test menu, and hit Select to get to the credits. In FE1 a triangle can also only have 2 corners.... because reasons. If you put 2 of your Whitewings next to an enemy and move one of them to a different tile, the game thinks of the moved unit in the original and new spots as 2 different units and lets you triangle attack with only 2 of them. The geosphere is also a mess because the damage it does gets reduced by a units luck stat. Enemies never have luck so they always take damage but your lucky units could even avoid the damage entirely. The devs also forgot to do boundary checking for the money in this game so if you grind too much in the arena, your money can overflow and make you broke again lol. Lastly there is also some really weird and pretty undocumented glitch where the game lets you put your units on deployment spots where enemies are stationed at the beginning of a map but I don't know the details.

One quirk I found in FE1 that I've rarely seen discussions for online is that archers do not attack mages in the arena. Add to this the fact that specific wagers (which increase with character level) are tied to specific opponents, and suddenly, the perilous arena becomes a literal goldmine, with your magic of choice in place of a pickax.

As of when I’m commenting, I’m playing through FE3 for the first time, and it’s insane how many basic features were only introduced in FE3 as they weren’t in FE1 or FE2. For one, FE3 finally allows you to view weapon stats in numeric form, a battle forecast, and movement ranges. I know part of it was that they jumped to the Super Famicom, but I have zero idea why Kaga and IS thought it was a good idea not to provide weapon stats in FE1. It seems to be common with classic Nintendo series that they don’t figure things out until the 3rd game, but FE1 was missing so many basic features that are vital to survival. Perhaps Kaga truly wanted to encourage permadeath by hiding basic info from the player (similar to FE10 Hard Mode for hiding enemy ranges). In addition, FE3 also introduced Crit Avo for the first time, so you could finally mitigate enemy Crit if you had enough Lck. Seriously, I have to think Kaga and IS were heavily encouraging permadeath by having every unit in FE1 and FE2 be susceptible to crits at all times.

Kaga absolutely WAS encouraging permadeath in FE1. That is one aspect of the design philosophy that is clear: any unit, at any time, can just get smacked by a critical and die, no matter how smart your plan is or how powerful (outside busted glitches) they are. Units were expected to die and be replaced at the RNG's whim. You can also tell Monshou and Seisen were heavily influenced by how players actually treated permadeath in FE1. Monshou recognizes and rewards players who are willing to reset to save all their recruitable, while Seisen preys upon the expectation that players will continue to play in that style to make it's mid-game gut punch all the more effective. And Thracia 776 was an attempt to go back to that style, with additional mechanics meant to force players to bring in normally-bemched substitute units even if there is not a large death count.

I finished Gaiden for the first time recently and hoo boy, one video would not cover all of that game's bugs. Don't knock FE1 ballisticians though. Their weapons are all 90 accuracy and 12 MT at worst. They get really good when you're pumping up stats at the endgame infinite stat booster shop. I'm a little surprised you didn't mention that shop actually. It's way more abusive than FE3 and 11. If I were to add anything else, FE1 arenas decide enemy strength based on your level, not your stats. So when you put in a unit that's freshly promoted, they're fighting the lowest level enemies and getting the full experience since FE1 experience is not scaled. The only thing keeping it from being too abusive is that they don't ask if you want to fight another round after victory like in later games.

I played the game on switch a while back and, well, I had fun! The thing is, it’s definitely an aged product of it’s time and certainly not the most comfortable play, but for what it tried to do, it did so incredibly well in my eyes. My favorite part is how it gave you all the tools you needed and was perhaps the purest form of Kaga’s perma death philosophy where you’d get many units and, as long as you played decently, you could beat the game even with a chunk of your army dead. This formula was later perfected in the radiant games and to an extent the GBA games and was later revitalized by the 3DS games. It’s also why I don’t want these games to ever take example from Three Houses going forward. You can make a large cast of solid compelling characters, and this is supposed to be an army, not a slightly above average DND adventuring party.

Yes, there's some bugs and oversights, but there's still a clear game design vision, there's already a surprising diversity of gameplay, and a good amount of features I didn't know existed in FE1. Like sure, it may seem like the item management was junky. But it was still there! Most games back then didn't have item management, you had one or two default weapons per "soldier" and that's it.

This glitch has some similarities to the Aum staff glitch where the tile that the last recruited character is on at the end of the chapter (Arran, Samson, or Xane) determines who they will change who they change into. There is just a bit of documentation about the glitch causing several issues when recruiting Samson/Arran after the other is killed so when playing earlier this year I got curious to try it for myself. Upon discovering one of them changing into another unit, I did testing as it reminded me of the Aum staff glitch. I believe you normally can’t use the extra one, but killing off the unit they transform into will allow you to use them as that new unit in their current class.

Sounds somewhat similar to a glitch I ran into. One glitch I read about was the chapter where you recruit Samson or Aaron. If you recruit one of them, then kill them off, you can still recruit the other one as the village is still open. But doing so can have some weird glitches with the map textures too causing it to completely mess up. (I think you need to have Xane recruited as well) I also discovered that like the weapon glitch, the last recruited unit’s position on the map horizontally will change them into a different unit, varying by their position.

I played through FE1 and it's a solid game. The only thing that's really wrong with the game design and not just a nitpick about "quality of life" is the item management. Every character has four slots for weapons and items, you can't sell anything, you can't trade (only give), and discarding one item ends your turn. It's a painful, mind-numbing nightmare to optimize your equipment and it really bogs down the game.

A bit more levelling weirdness - growth rates are a bit of a lie. The game doesn't roll stats individually, but instead each character has a number of "templates" that pick which stats go up and one of those is selected at random. This is why, if you pay close attention, characters seem to always get the same four or five different level-ups.
@aclashoffireandice4084
@aclashoffireandice4084 11 ай бұрын
This is... technically true? The game rolls level-ups the same way as any other FE game, by asking the RNG for a sequence of numbers to compare to the unit's growths. What's at fault is the RNG itself, which starts at 0 and simply adds 55 repeatedly to get to the next number. This means that there are only 256 distinguishable results for any given level-up or combat situation. The level-up patterns are the most noticeable thing, but it's also a big reason why attacking an enemy that can't counter leads to a disproportionate number of 1-hit-1-miss outcomes if you have less than 100% hit.

Barely related but something really weird in FE4 is that lovers trust each other enough to give money but still won't give items. Even the first game had giving c'mon

Doesn't fe1 have a glitch that lets you beat it on the first map? I know the speedrun is like 5 minutes long

And yet, in spite of all the jank of FE1, it's STILL a better game than Shadow Dragon. Go figure. (okay SD is objectively better, but the series had come so much farther by then that it still represented a massive leap backwards in quality)

It's one of the best games but it's not the most polished. The fact you cannot rearrange units is really annoying in several maps. UI has been improved since then. I could agree to best story, maps, and innovative ideas. But not mechanical polish

@@PurpleRupees U.I hasn't improved unfortunately. Rearranging units is also rather irrelevant with infinite staff range, plentiful rewarps, and a whole slew of staff units.

Having played Three Houses and the Switch version of Shadow Dragon, while I may say the maps of Shadow Dragon are better, that game clearly suffers from first game syndrome, and Three Houses for me is better in just about everything else.
