    I tried DOTA the other day.

    It seemed...fine?

    Like, it's not my kind of game, but it was fun for what it was.

    I'm not really sure where the hate comes from.

    People get irritated when they have to hear about a thing they don't care about constantly.

    It's the same reason some people get really irritated by persona talk

    and feminism

    I was quite pleased to see the Kid Icarus stand holding up just fine against the added weight and size of the XL.

    It also frequently betrays its 3D lover in favor of my Vita.

    I only played the first two and really liked the story but the games logic just could not have been more confusing. Did that ever get better?

    Two was pretty bad with its logic and that issue reached critical mass in Apollo Justice, but Ghost Trick and Miles Edgeworth 1 were far, far better in that aspect. You should definitely play Trials and Tribulations, it's one of the best in the series.

    I'm currently playing Apollo Justice, and the first two cases are pretty straightforward (for an AA game, anyway). I do recall it getting more obtuse later on, though. I'll soon see if that's accurate.

    Trials and Tribulations is pretty solid, but even it has issues near the end where you can know exactly what theory you need to prove yet not be clear on which piece of evidence the game wants you to present.

    Also, I forgot how heavily tutorialized the perception gimmick in Apollo Justice is. The game holds your hand through three of those sequences before it trusts you to remember what it's been beating you over the head with.

    Case 3 is pretty bad logic wise, but you'll find out soon enough. And yeah, I liked the perception stuff in AJ, but the training wheels could have come off sooner.

    Patrick was actually doing a pretty good job, but that canteen was his undoing. Management sims are all about learning from your mistakes though, especially when you have so many plates to spin.

    so fire emblem question

    why do some characters have boosts on their stats at all times

    i know that some of them are from their skills, but like, Panne has a boost to almost all of her stats and I can't figure out why

    or Miriel's only got a skill that boosts her magic but her skill and resistance are boosted too

    Beast characters get buffs from their transformation stones. There's also support buffs to consider.

    Taguel and Manaketes get bonus stats from their Beast/Dragonstones. Taguels to make them not suck, Manaketes to make them stupidly overpowered.

    You might have seen a scene in the barracks that said "Miriel gained a surge of Skill and Resistance!" which adds +4 to those stats the next time you deploy her in battle.
