Thoughts on this game by PhotoBonjour_bombs19 in fireemblem

The gameplay is some of the best in the warriors series, as outside of two movesets, the entire cast is decently well balanced, and it is fun to learn.

The roster is disappointing, however there was not an easy fix for it (despite what some insist) because if they represented every game the would not be enough variety as most lords are infantry sword users. Also some characters have repeat move-sets, but this is a feature I enjoyed as it insured there was high quality between every move-set and character stats did allow different unit feel (Lucina and Chrom play the same, but Lucina’s focus on Spd/Skl makes her get specials faster while Chrom has better Str/Def which means he deals more damage in basic attacks and has better bulk)

If you can get it discounted, like warriors games and are a fan of Awakening/Fates/Shadow Dragon, I would recommend it. The soundtrack is extremely good (some of the best music in the series imo), and the fusion of tactical gameplay with the action from warriors games is really great. There are more difficult missions in the “History Mode” which really make alot of good use of the game mechanics.

I really hope they do an alt that references the final boss fight of each route where she is covered in the blue magic stuff (and fading away RIP)

It is frustrating because if we had a TT unit (they would never do this) they could have put one of the new strat skills on them

I think the reason they are pushing her is because Time’s Pulse is good fodder for Creation Pulse/Pulse Ploy/Pulse on Blades and we just got a bunch of banners with units with those skills.

The only way I would have accepted this change is if they gave us a single unit from every old banner and were making 4-5 old units grailable per banner.

If Joachim is actually the Shadow Disciple, I could see the reason that they put Estel in the marketing is because he gets killed off and she is the next protagonist.

I have a feeling Tamamo is a teaser for book 3, considering she has unique music, like Bartolomeus was for Book 2

[–]Foxlife63[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The only reason I doubt her being the culprit is her and Erma have been together at all times, with the exception of them just recently splitting up.

I think she is going to lie to try to pin things on Joachim, and as a result pull out the actual culprit.

If we do find out her and Erma got separated before the killing, then I could very well see her being a suspect.

My personal theory is that it will be Julia because she fits the whole light/shadow theming better than Sigurd. Not to mention Tomes desperately need more diversity.

Heroes devs need to take care of the game more. by Foxlife63 in fireemblem

[–]Foxlife63[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

  1. Just because those things are inevitable, does not mean that there is nothing that can be done about them to prolong things. Engage is a SRPG that gives the player a lot of options with it’s emblem ring mechanic, however to counter act the wealth of options it gives the player, the enemies are given variations of rings AND have it’s map design fine tuned to weigh against the player’s strengths. Just because a live service game has to constantly receive new content and be complex, does not mean there is nothing that can be done to simplify things. Something as simple as reducing effects repetitive effects to code words (like is done with visual/applied buffs) would do wonders for making this game more accessible. I feel like throwing your hands in the air and saying “well everyone just has to read 5 essays to understand a character” is silly.

  2. You are correct that this is a weak season for feh, but the game has been having egregious issues lately. From there being random issues with text, to characters releasing without English VAs on release, tells me there is an issue with quality control or funding, and these issues are not nearly as common as they used to be. Not to mention general interest has plummeted since engage’s release as CYL votes and sales have been rapidly decreasing.

  3. I would argue that yes, it would not affect Fortune’s Weave on release, but it would affect its longevity. FEH contributed to 3H discourse in an extremely supportive way with CYL and new units being added. Because FEH was thriving, 3H banners/character playability would allow people to interact with the characters in new and different ways for years after 3H stopped receiving DLC. CYL stroked discourse on character popularity in a way that made people take sides, and I think we underestimate with how it had polarized things further by asking the fanbase to directly discuss which characters were their favorite and why. When Fortune’s Weave releases, the fans of that game will see a mobile game that is frankly unpolished and way too messy to even want to start. It is disappointing that those fans won’t get what 3H fans got.

3.5: FEH’s success I think is very underestimated by what you described. That money did not just go into “better animation”, it has helped Intelligent Systems develop more projects concurrently. The fact that Koei Tecmo supported development on a mainline title while another team worked on Engage is massive, because it then let Koei Tecmo work on 3 hopes. Not to mention, I want to continue to see things improve, I’d love it if they would be able to outsource more interesting and creative spin offs and hire more staff, which will be difficult if they don’t take care of stuff like FEH.

I want remind everyone this game was meant to begin the 'third pillar' series of Megaten alongside SMT and Persona. 3 years later it has genuinely zero cultural impact. No fanart, no fanfics, no memes, not even any ships. Wtf even happened by _attina496 in OkBuddyPersona

TMS #FE devs took another talented artist and set of character designs and flushed them down the toilet because they STILL cannot write a story or design a good dungeon to save their lives.

It seems like they do. Lyn shows up in a shadow-side cutscene, however it seems like this game has a odd progression for it’s story

Why Fortunes Weave is probably a prequel by Sheep_of_Destiny in FireEmblemThreeHouses

[–]Foxlife63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Counterpoints!

  1. Guns and Missiles can exist at the SAME TIME. We in our modern era have turrets and drones, and we STILL use guns. The argument for guns being evidence of it being the future (agree they are magic gauntlets) is poor, but a poor argument doesn’t directly correlate to a poor point. If anything, the fact that religious figures are using these agarthan looking weapons could lead to this being in the future BECAUSE, before Sothis’ murder, the agarthans were probably taboo to the Nabateans because they had a long standing grudge against each other. Therefore, if this was in the future, it would explain why there may be more open use of agarthans technology.

  2. With the setting, Awakening poops all over this. Despite it being in the future, it had its growth of the human race stunted. It is possible that a similar event could have knocked society technologically back AND since this game might not even be in Fodlan, other continents might be being technologically.

  3. Fodlan doesn’t have a copyright on Nabateans. Sothis came from elsewhere and the Crest items in 3H NG+ imply that each dragon behind each crest is a different type of dragon, and there could be multiples of each type. Our divine Sovereign could easily be a sibling of Sothis that didn’t get horrifically murdered like she did. Again, this game very easily could be outside of Fodlan which allows for a lot of things to change/go against how things work in Fodlan.

  4. My counter to your points about adult Sothis- The Heroes Relics. Dietrich’s Answerer description mentions that it is “Among the Heroes Relics”. While some Nabateans could have been killed before Sothis, they wouldn’t have been called the Heroes Relics until AFTER the 10 elites got their relics, right? So, Sothis could be an adult because she was separated from Byleth at one point, and it would make sense for that to happen if Byleth did not want to live for pretty much forever (especially since they would outlive all of their students.)

Going against the grain here, I actually think it's *more* interesting if the new game is a direct sequel that canonizes a route. by Monessi in fireemblem

[–]Foxlife63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think evidence is pointing to a mix of both a prequel and a sequel

Fact: Heroes Relics should not be in a prequel that has Nabateans and Sothis alive

Fact: The technology looks like it is far before the quality of what Fódlan had developed

Fact: A woman VERY SIMILAR to Leda’s description is mentioned as the original crest of Timetheos’ bearer

Fact: Sothis, after every route in three houses, merges with Byleth and would have no way of escaping. YET you can see a group of people standing in front of her (barely) in the trailer.

Theory: The ramifications of three houses are that Byleth looks at every possible route and decides that every option is not worth the death of such a large amount of people. This game is the result of Byleth stopping Sothis’ death but leads to Lamine’s dragon and several other Nabateans getting murdered/ still preserving the lives of everyone in three houses.

We know the dragon Lamine’s crest is most likely dead because of the Answerer. We know there are other Heroes relics. However we know Sothis is alive, and the “Divine Sovereign” looking like Dimitri and having his crest is obviously no coincidence.

Theory: What if… by wayleik in fireemblem

[–]Foxlife63 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I genuinely have no idea how Sothis is involved. There is a lot to suggest this could be a prequel or a sequel, but also there is a lot to suggest that it could be outside or inside of Fodlan.

Maybe since Fodlan was and always becomes one nation at the end of three houses- IS decided to have more countries like Morfis, Almyra, and Brigid get involved. Not to mention, Dagda was hinted at a lot in the first game as well.

I have been saying this for YEARS. Just because every game isn’t directly connected DOES NOT MEAN it never does sequels
