My fave game genre seems dead. TBS, any advice?
Ghaleon:
wow that sounds cool, I like really complicated games >=P.
But then again, I also know how you feel, it's how I felt for MOO 3. But then again, I tried to micro absolutely everything instead of letting the AI play portions for me, like you're supposed to do. But still I'm patient and was willing to spend mega-time between turns. Also the stupid AI would undo alot of what I did without telling me so often, despite me hitting the "AI OFF" button multiple times with large heavy devices in frusteration after it became apparent it wasn't working properly.
I tell myself the AI made me suck at that game, but to be honest I'll never really know.. I'd be willing to play it more even if I sucked anyway, but the combat system just failed to listen to me completely, very annoying.
Elixir:
I like complicated games too but I want to actually play games, not spend an hour going through 30+ tutorials on how to play them.
Aaaaaaand SRW is not an RTS, guys.

I feel dumb just playing this game.

Moogy warned you.

As I said before, though, FE9 comes close IMO.

Have you... played any of the ones that didn't come out in the US? FE4, FE5, and FE6 are all amazing games as well. That's not to say that FE7 isn't good, but there are enough people that think otherwise for you to be at fault claiming that most people think 7 is the best. ^^;
And I asked for Knights in the Nightmare for my birthday(which is today). If you guys feel dumb playing this game, then I'll probably feel retarded. I still haven't gotten halfway through Rondo of Swords...
Umm, if you're interested, there's this open-source turn-based strategy game called Battle for Wesnoth, that uses all medieval/fantasy-type characters. Best of all, it has online play. I played it for about a week, but after the group of friends I was playing with kinda fell apart I lost it.
SONIC BHOCOLATE STRIKER:
Oh, how'd I forget about Wesnoth? Being a fan of open-source stuff I should've remembered that one.
