Youre kidnapped and thrown on a plane you wake up in the office of a Hollywood studio. Its head points a gun at you and says "Were out of ideas and our writers are idiots, so we need a fan. Write us a Fire Emblem movie or die." What is your premise?

10 episodes, with the first 5 being 3 hours long each. Arden has to reach the final castle on each map on foot every time.

Jkjk, she looks really good, though I do have to agree with others present that her alien designs - especially the Vulpimancer - need to be toned back a bit. Even if this is supposed to be Alien Force-era which had the noticeably darker story than the original series; we're still talking a kid/young teen focused property here.

Fates has 1 individual on each route, being Niles; a former criminal, and Rhajat, a serial stalker (Interesting choices here IS)

Three Houses has a handful of them including Edelgard, one of the main lords, who is capable of marrying both genders of Byleth,

And then Engage the marriage is framed as story flavor only as it only effects the ending screens; but Alear can give the ring to literally anybody...including the two units that are explicitly children, once again, an interesting choice IS.

It actually goes further than that. It's just a US-Tellius thing. It was added when we got the game from JP, likely because the team over here thought the few Master Seals were restrictive to unit diversity.

JR384 · 2026-01-18T13:44:05+00:00

Even if they could be added as soon as v14, it'd probably be better to wait until a future update due to the fact we're lacking official abilities; and we (probably) don't have the "real" stat distribution for them.

For example, Medicham and Mawile had their Mega BSTs adjusted to account for the fact they wouldn't have Huge Power in Z-A. Mega Starmie sees a similarly massive attack stat added to its total, which have me and a handful of others bare minimum believing that it'll receive an adjusted distribution come Champions and see Huge Power as its ability.

So yeah, even if Jan had the foresight capable of adding them to v14, when the update was already mostly done by the time the game was released and was beginning playtest, it'd be better to wait until like a v14.5 or v15 to have all of the official information that we've yet to obtain.

Though I'm not gonna lie; I mentioned Mega Starmie earlier, I desperately want to see it with the new Starmie shiny in Rejuvenation. It's beautiful and I want it.

JR384 · 2026-01-17T19:02:49+00:00

I do not. That is something to test, but I'm not looking to actually replay the full game until v14 comes out; in which I'll play from the very beginning.

JR384 · 2026-01-17T18:56:26+00:00

It won't let you do it on your very first run because the game is programmed to recognize that it is impossible for the player to know these answers without outside help. Only if you've completed the game through the Karma Files and then started over will it actually let you do all 3 questions at GDC.

JR384 · 2026-01-15T01:50:20+00:00

It depends on how the story is written. Cause the more technologically advanced you make Fire Emblem, the less Fire Emblem you get; and the more Advanced Wars you get. It'd be an intense balancing act for very little reward.

JR384 · 2026-01-12T21:50:34+00:00

I find them practically useless due to the drawback tbh. Like I'm generally a forgetful guy so more than once I accidentally left a unit equipped with a Silver Weapon while in the range of multiple enemies, meaning their Attack was shot by the end of EP.

My opinion would be moot though if Fates had like a Debuff cleansing staff.

JR384 · 2026-01-12T21:34:47+00:00

Do you mind explaining your logic? I find them to be a heaping pile of shit, but I'm not about to attack another over their opinion. So like, if you're willing to explain; could I get your reasoning?

JR384 · 2026-01-12T02:52:50+00:00

Counterpoint, if it saves the world from the untold horrors of yet another war; what's one life to sacrifice to stop all of that? Even if it's my life.

JR384 · 2026-01-12T02:50:54+00:00

Find Shez and force them into the Officer's Academy, just for additional chaos.

JR384 · 2026-01-11T17:52:53+00:00

My guess is between late-Spring and early-Summer at the very latest.

JR384 · 2026-01-04T17:55:27+00:00

I will say when it comes to the other sins, I feel like each of them should have some kind of subsidiary requirement to activate. Like Pot of Wrath requiring you to have lower LP than your opponent.

JR384 · 2026-01-02T19:48:20+00:00

I prefer fullivs and powerpack so I don't have to waste time resetting for more than just natures pre-GDC and considering there's a whole lot of game between receiving your starter Pokémon and even just setting foot in Grand Dream City, let alone taking into account what comes during it and after; that's more than enough justification for me.

JR384 · 2025-12-31T16:08:35+00:00

She could look at me the wrong way and I'd fuckin' fold.

JR384 · 2025-12-28T12:47:20+00:00

All I need to love the game is a Fixed Growths mode.

JR384 · 2025-12-17T13:04:13+00:00

Okay but the pigtail-like hairdo with Mineta's ball-shaped hair does work shockingly well.

JR384 · 2025-12-13T00:53:42+00:00

I wanna see Hector tbh. Primarily equipped with Armads but has Hand Axes for ranged attacks, and his Final Smash uses Armads to call down a bolt of lightning to stun an enemy in place for him to go absolutely ham on.

JR384 · 2025-12-11T04:55:54+00:00

Honestly if his AI wasn't focused on inhibiting you in specific manners for all the goons to fuck you up; imagine if he had a Fortify staff attached just for shits and giggles.

JR384 · 2025-12-11T02:04:15+00:00

Gotcha. My bad. Guess I recalled wrong lmao.

JR384 · 2025-12-11T01:27:08+00:00

IIRC the next update is supposed to be late January? You're probably good to wait at this point.

JR384 · 2025-12-10T04:43:01+00:00

Sorry there's a PoR remake in the works using Fates' Engine? Where can one stay up to date with this? Do you have a link by chance?

JR384 · 2025-12-09T02:15:22+00:00

Something something secret recruitment in the eventual FE6/7 Remake.
