I have no idea how I am going to have the time for this game but it's a must buy. I do have a question though.Since the weapon triangle is gone, am I correct in that it now just comes down to using gambits to be more powerful than your enemy?
Oh yeah, forgot about FE 6 and 7, but Given that 7 is a prequel to 6 (Roy's game) I'd argue even those can be played as standalone
Isn't FE4 one of the most lauded games?The opening has me a bit concerned tbh. Really hope they don't go too dark with this game, I don't think the series has ever done dark moments well. Or if they do go dark it's handled better then the rest of the series.
Okay, that opening cinematic is hyping me to unreasonable levels. Seiros is hugely different than I was expecting, and the scale and brutality of it is impressive as hell.
This is another good aspect, I never appreciated the kids feature, so keeping the romance without them is perfect.
Yeah I might just be overreacting but after Radiant Dawn, Conquest, and SoV I really don't trust them to do it well.They've done much Darker before.
Tho it's usually in dialogue and during the time the graphics were sprites. Now that they can show it in cutscenes, it's can be more impactful and noticeable
Yeah, but I personally didn't like the story in the second half (when most of the darker stuff starts happening) all that much.

Not exactly, no. There's abilities, combat arts (spend weapon durability for bonuses) , and a lot more class advantages on weapons - lances are good against Cav now, for instance.I have no idea how I am going to have the time for this game but it's a must buy.

And the most impressing thing is that, initially, they didn't show all this darkness, while focusing on the academy life. This time they completely nailed how to present the game.Wow this is the way to open a game, way more bloody and brutal than I expected. This game seems to be the dark FE game I needed, way to go IS!
Genealogy handled the kids aspect a lot differently to be fair, and is also a lot more dependent on it
Lances arent exactly good against cav, it is just they learn a skill that if you equip makes lances good against cavsNot exactly, no. There's abilities, combat arts (spend weapon durability for bonuses) , and a lot more class advantages on weapons - lances are good against Cav now, for instance.
I'd do it buy my photoshop skills suck hehXavi You should totally do a Fire Emblem-ify avatar thread a few days befor release lol
Good, there's the news I was waiting for.GUYS
Seems to imply there are multiple male options, even though it was true that females get more. But you can flirt with anyone? ashkfgashfgkacb
I started with Awakening so unfortunately I do not know about previous games - in fact I hope some of them will get remade, like it happened for Shadow of Valentia.
One of the darkest scenes in the game was in Sacred Stones with the dead wife.Yeah I might just be overreacting but after Radiant Dawn, Conquest, and SoV I really don't trust them to do it well.
But hey, only two weeks left until the game comes out it so here's hoping they do!

Didn't they add something akin to bows against flyers to them?Lances arent exactly good against cav, it is just they learn a skill that if you equip makes lances good against cavs
Same thing as the weapon triangle

That was done really well and came off as both creepy and sad.
Genealogy was never officially brought over (fan translations do Exist however) so most of us haven't played it. This game seems to take a lot of inspiration from it though, so I wouldn't be shocked if it was the next remakeI started with Awakening so unfortunately I do not know about previous games - in fact I hope some of them will get remade, like it happened for Shadow of Valentia.
Don't the breaker skills grant like +/- 20% accuracy? Cause that's a lot.Weapon triangle is kinda gone, but there will be weapon skills that replicate it, though at a reduced level.
I did not anticipate this reviewing very well but if these previews are anything to go on we could be looking at an 85+
No, once you hit a certain lance rank you learn knight kneeler that makes lances effective against cavs, same thing with axes and armor.Didn't they add something akin to bows against flyers to them?
Uh, one thing is throwing me for a loop in that opening cutscene. I don't know anything about the leaks and don't care to know, but uh:
In that weird time warp thing, are these skyscrapers?
It could be that I'm overthinking it and that this time warpy thing is just supposed to imply "time travel" showing different eras of time. Still, it threw me for a loop to see a skyscraper in a fire emblem intro.
Ahhh, I'd missed that it was a skill.No, once you hit a certain lance rank you learn knight kneeler that makes lances effective against cavs, same thing with axes and armor.
So that wasn't just me then. Would be kind of surreal if that actually pays off in some way.Uh, one thing is throwing me for a loop in that opening cutscene. I don't know anything about the leaks and don't care to know, but uh:
