Typically what happens is when they do the endings for the characters during the credits anybody who died has their ending replaced with something like "X died in chapter y".

Fire Emblem: Three Houses Preview Thread (Including Opening Cinematic)

I think the vast majority of people restart the fight if thery lose someone, judging by the threads for the previous games
I was lumping them in as well. Movement and speed are just too important in FE

Just watching the class video, you were right, it's the Great Knight.
E: Oh god and they have Canto.
Previous games don't have that just something similar at the end, although it does have a feature where you can redo some turns, like if any of your characters die you won't have to do the whole battle again just rewind a few turns and start over you have limited rewinds per battle but it's enough.
Honestly one of the biggest issues with armor knights is that traditionally, a lot of maps don't seem to be 'built' for them - often there isn't really a 'good' chokepoint option for you (as the aggressor) want to take - and the movement range (or lack thereof) means they're otherwise always playing catch up.
There are a couple games where there are some good defensive maps, but without the boots item, generals will often just be too slow to get to the party.
I dont think that is that important, specially when they still released SoV after the 3DS games
I think casual mode was much more important
Unfortunately i don't think we will get something like PoR/RD ever again until there is a remake or port. the series is moving away slowly from that structure of linear progression with battles and story sections in between, and its obvious the dating sim elements are a very big part of the appeal.
at least, there will be remakes to satisfy old fans of the series like Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia.
You cant romance your students until after the timeskip tho so you are not a teacher and they arent students. Plus you will probably will be killing those you dont romace anyways lmao
My only gripe right now is that the game still looks absolutely disgusting in its art style and menus. Other then that, I'm interested since Awakening was my favorite Fire Emblem.
hm... not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing then. this will be my first FE and i think i'd want to see all that there is to the story, but looks like that would take a ridiculously long time. i was hoping there would be some way to fast forward through some stuff after you've finished the game once.

I remember reading this, but I wasn't 100% sure if I was remembering correctly.
Welp, there is it. One of the oldest Fire Emblem traditions.RIP PAPA
Dancers now wield magic, okay. It's pretty late in the class video, are they a master class now?
E: LOL default Lord class has only sword and lance? That's like only Dimitri's default weapon. Strange, since Edelgard and Claude are seen with some legendary axe and bow.
All IS needs to do is to take some skills from FEH into Three Houses. Something like Armor March, or Guidance that enables them to get to their target faster.

How can they know without trying? Also Conquest was very linear and is the most popular route of Fates
I am happy to see that this Fire Emblem is so gay.
It's SO gay guys.
Chaotic bisexial ENERGY, GO!

Either something else or just generic time stuff. Remember, Atlus co-owns TMS so they would need to be at least credited with anything that uses stuff from it but Atlus isn't involved with Three Houses at all.
Armor March/Guidance wouldn't work nearly as well in a regular FE game (fliers are gonna be running way ahead, sticking two armors next to each other is much more restraining when they can move a lot more)
You can sim all the school elements at least so that can be faster, you could also do multiple save files before making decisions the second playthroughs should be faster if you just want the story i think.
Area of effect of course has to be improved for this game, that's certain. Does Three Houses have the Evacuate/Pair Up mechanic from earlier games? Could be another good way of getting slower units to the front.
You aren't locked into weapons a class is proficient in, so Edelgard can still use an axe as a lord
Ah crap, I accidentally pressed and saw your comment lol. It's a tradition but I still wish I hadn't seen it. At this point I feel like there will be no more surprises left with the amount of footage they are showing...or am I being too pessimistic?RIP PAPA
OP
OP
If it's from the intro, then yeah you are being a bit pessimistic
Then they need to patch the class descriptions, as the one for Lord acutally says: "... excels at wielding a sword". Not that Lord prevents one from getting the highest weapon level for other weapons then.
That's true - just that the general feel for the game seemed pretty lukewarm prior to release up until this moment.
OP
OP
Aside from magic to an extent, no weapons are class locked, you can use any weapon in any class, some are just presumably better with the stuff the class specializes in to some extent
Don't think it's going to be much later story wise than ... let say Greil bites the dust in PoR.
Thanks, good to hear. But maybe they really should change the descriptions, indicating that other weapons are still possible and that the prominent weapon only has some higher starting value or whatever.
There are probably tons of surprises left, you're being a bit pessimistic.
That spoiler was literally rumored since day one, since you can't have Fire Emblem without that tradition.
Honestly the real surprise would've been if that hadn't happened lol
Only 3 male and 5 female characters tho, still very fair from being gay enough
They did really try tho? One was a GC game and the other got no marketing
considering the Engadget preview there is a ton we haven't been spoiled on. Its weird that Engadget is the only outlet that actually beat the game or even got a significant way into the game. Everyone else is barely halfway through pre-timeskip
Yeah I wouldn't worry about having big stuff spoiled until post time skip footage starts popping up.
I mean by all accounts its a long game even for one route, and engadget even said they were kind of rushing it
Long gone are the days of restarting an entire level because the enemy got a really lucky crit.
