I've played almost all the FE games, and I personally think PoR is the best one when it comes to natural dialogue and worldbuilding mixed with a believable story. It's relatively fine difficulty wise with a bunch of optional tutorials, so it's perfect for beginners.

So posture is the metre that decides how close you are to being disarmed? I feel like with enough practice, the player will naturally get a feel to how many attacks it takes for the metre bar to deplete/max out. Sound cues are enough. You can also redesign the bar to be more noticeable/colourful

It doesn't help that for a while there, Bluepoch was speeding up the timed events. I started the game last year but I've yet to catch up to the main story cause there's always something new to do, and I have trouble finishing those too!

It's hard to say cause they all have the potential to look good. I'd say the first one? Since I think it's the most "mysterious". But whether I click on a cover on a game or not usually depends on if the colours are just right. Small details like leaves blowing in the wind are really important too.

Holy smokes! This is awesome! In general, I think a good rule of thumb to follow is that: the more options you give the player to tackle a situation, the better. So giving the player the option to grapple for fast-paced gameplay in exchange for one of their heals is a great mechanic.

omggg i can't wait for her to arrive ^-^

You should totes play PoR/RD when you ever feel like playing more Fire Emblem! They have the best stories out of the entire series in my opinion. Also, haha, they aren't actually my first FE games. My first one was Awakening!

Maybe it's just because it's my favourite FE game, but Path of Radiance's soundtrack is still very memorable. 'Greil Mercenaries', 'With Us', all of the battle themes, etc
