That's just a thing in general, unless you're a villain, or it's an exaggerated trait, ugly people don't exist in games. Especially JRPGs.

And it makes sense, of course they'd want to push more visually appealing characters if they could.

So are we expecting whichever house we choose to be similar story/battles (With just different characters in each role) or will it be more like Fates where each path was its own thing with different battles?

The academy portion of the game, at least, appears to feature the same main battles, just with different contexts — e.g., in the Lonato Rebellion in Faerghus, the Blue Lions' involvement is more personal, since the rebellion's leader is the adoptive father of Ashe, one of their members.

We don't officially know what lies beyond that, or how different the routes could become, but considering Fire Emblem always descends into war between countries... I'm guessing the later portion of the game will be pretty different between routes.

I don't think anyone is claiming that it doesnt make sense, just that they would be fine if more ugly characters existed.

Thanks for the info! Definitely ready to get my hands on my FE

Apparently she got let go after recording a while due to a different direction they wanted for Edelgard. Not terribly uncommon but unfortunate.

Oh wow.

Guess some people were right about Vee. I remember some were arguing that Eldegard didn't sound like her and got replaced.

Thought they were crazy, but looks like it's true.

Hmmm... I wonder if this has anything to do with
Edelgard's ruthlessness
Given Vee voiced Velvet in ToB I find that hard to imagine. It might have to do with the
time skip though or just general tone being too hard if anything. They may not have been getting the "progression" they wanted from more innocent/naive/young student to older/ruthless/hardened adult.

Y'all got me really curious about these leaks now lol.

Loved her performance as Velvet so that's a shame to hear.

Curiouser and curiouser. Really sucks she has been down on her luck for roles lately.

Given the recent voice acting topic, do we know of any plans to have Japanese voice acting options for western releases? The series has been pretty inconsistent about that.

Can we take a second to appreciate this game's outstanding concept/setting art?

bg_introduction.jpg

bg_img2.jpg


Fire Emblem has really lacked for iconic, identifiable locales, and Three Houses has provided just that with some beautiful fantasy scenery.

To get a sense of scale for how big those walls are: look at the ascending road to the walls, ending in a fortified gatehouse. Now look how staggeringly tall the walls are in comparison to that gatehouse. It's like something out of ASOIAF.

I'm so excited for this game's 3D exploration, and I hope Garreg Mach isn't the only explorable area, despite its impressive scale.

(I know I've been theorizing this since the E3 trailer, but: Garreg Mach's extensive fortifications and standing defense force lead me to strongly suspect it will come under siege at some point, either by an enemy or by us. It'd be poignant if it were, in fact, the final dungeon of the game, after the months of idyllic peace there in the beginning.)

So good it will be used twice I hope. I think/hope we'll have to break out and then come storming back eventually.

No announcement, but Nintendo has been pretty good about dual audio so far for Switch. FE Warriors, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and even Zelda BOTW (eventually) had it.

I'll take the second one but Non-Dynasty Warriors fans won't know what it means.

I mean Romance of the Three Kingdoms is pretty famous outside of DW. Heck even in gaming now Total War just came out with a massively successful new entry all about RotTK.

But Potter Emblem is probably the catchiest. Also wouldn't mind a play on both HP and the whole SMTxFE thing like
Fire Emblem: Three Houses |OT| Hogwarts Mirage Seasons #FE
Fire Emblem: Three Houses |OT| Hogwarts X Fire Emblem

Cause this game is shaping up to be a more faithful crossover than that game was. Not to say it was bad.

Something with Yugioh GX could work too, I remember finding a video after the trailer that set the three houses trailer to the english GX opening and it fit surprisingly well

My sacrifice was not in vain!

And as a DW/ROT3K fan, I am partial to that choice.

I like Romance of the Three Houses as well, despite not being that much of a Dynasty Warriors fan (I've only played Warriors Orochi 3, Hyrule Warriors, and FE Warriors).

Romance of the Three Houses is pretty great, but all of the Harry Potter references are probably more in line with how the game's going to be perceived.

Hogwarts Mirage Sessions is a marvelous title.
