Competitive nature in Fire Emblem Heroes

January 24, 2020January 24, 2020 by Ben

Even though all game modes in Fire Emblem Heroes is played against AI, this game can be very competitive. Players are ranked against another. Score between players are really tight at the top. A difference of 1 or 2 points may translate to hundreds of ranks between those numbers.

As an example, in tier 21 arena, a player with 3,820 score may have rank of 1,000, that result in staying in tier 21 and get the highest rewards. Another player with a score of 3,818 may have a rank of 1,250, that result in dropping to tier 20 and get a lesser rewards.

Since we know how the ranking system works in Fire Emblem Heroes, actually players can benefit more if players cooperate with each other. By cooperating, more players can be in higher tier and get more rewards.

However, Intelligent System has created a perfect Prisoner’s Dilemma situation in Fire Emblem Heroes. It is impossible to cooperate with other players.

Summoning Heroes in Fire Emblem Heroes

January 10, 2020 by Ben

Fire Emblem Heroes mobile game has been around for quite some time now. We’re almost at it’s 3rd anniversary. It’s my current longest running game. There are many game modes and lots of ways to build any hero. I still enjoy playing the game until now. If I have to pick one thing out of all of Fire Emblem Heroes shortcomings, I’ll have to say that the summoning heroes is the one thing I like the least. In fact, I wish there’s no summoning heroes feature. Unfortunately, I think there’s no way that Intelligent Systems will ever change their gacha model to a purchase model. To me, gacha model is equivalent to gambling. It’s not a good model.
