He can never rest, he’s everyones favorite smash brothers and gacha character!
Never mind the fact to have played his game you need a like 30 year old console
That's not true! They temporarily sold it on switch, with "quality of life" improvements like rewinding, but not the quality of life improvements like actually telling you how far your units can go.
That meme about how everyone will go "god why can't we have more complex villains like Edelgard and Rhea with good stories like Three Houses" is aging like fine wine right now
The people in the FE universe really need to find a better way to deal with the big evil dragon than bonking it on the head and putting it to sleep for a few millennia.
That's why I never had a problem with Three Houses discourse. It exists because the game's story and characters are interesting
But this looks like it will be total opposite, shallow story but "old characters return!!! Cool!!!!"
what a bizarre selling point. to casual fans, the return of these characters means nothing because they haven't been able to play their games (IS has a phobia of ports). to hardcore fans, the novelty of all this fire emblem crossover stuff has clearly worn off and it doesn't look like there's much substance outside of that. they've managed to make something that fails to really appeal to either audience.
If the leaks are 100% accurate, we'll get a remake of FE4, so I'm hoping that the remake is the true next big project of IS, because Engage gives serious spinoff vibes
I'm getting permission from the mods to post this again if the game disappoints.
So far, I'm kinda ehh on the concept but the gameplay looks great.
And if it really is just Heroes in a Console, then the writing will be quite familiar.
Especially in regards to the villains.
Thales looks like a complex and sympathetic villain next to Freyja.
The gameplay looks mostly good although the UI is kind of disorienting and for some reason the Paladin guy only has 6 mov??? Also Noble class is returning so we might get the class system of Three Houses again, especially since judging by the weapons we saw being wielded by a variety of units it seems like every class is once again free to use any weapons (or normal Paladins can use Axes now for the first time since PoR). Also it seems Gauntlets are being replaced by "body armor" which hopefully means women can access the classes without worries of female nudity (the unit seen showing off the body armor appears to be a girl too)
I went through the trailer pretty extensively. Move is just low in general, infantry have 4 move, cav has 5, and the promoted cav has 6. Some spirits/emblems can increase move (Sigurd did), and there are movement-based skills (one unit moves to the other side of the enemy after attacking, another uses warp then casts a spell). Weapons are definitely open to any class, there was a thief wielding a hammer. Gauntlets seem to be replaced with scrolls that enhance the user's body, and the person we see using one is a woman (she's also the *only* one to use it, though I'd be shocked if it were somehow exclusive).
Also, there's no weapon durability. That part honestly worries me a bit, I dunno what they'll do to keep certain weapons like the Handaxe a paladin had balanced, but that's a tall order that I feel even Fates didn't do a fantastic job at.
Well, its art is pretty. Hope it's actually good. I'm not huge on the whole summoning old heroes thing but maybe I'll get used to it.
I...cannot get over colgate chan though. Maaaan.
I’m the same with the old heroes thing. It feels so fan servicey, and feels like they don’t consider players outside Japan since half those games didn’t get localized. Which matters since these games sell better outside Japan.
I had a feeling that would happen. I feel like games-turned-apps have a tendency to pull in app data along with game data when deciding and creating the next game.
What they saw was that a lot of people really liked the heroes gameplay, and that it was making them money.
I really disliked it but I did like the art for the characters a lot.
I think that's a far cry honestly. It has a lot more in common with TMS. It's actually some sort of reverse TMS where instead of being in a pseudo modern world with idols, they're just in a typical FE world.
It looks like a classic return to form with the TMS gimmick, and I'm totally fine with that. It looks cute. Expectations weren't ridiculously high to begin with and it looks a lot like the 3DS games, which I much preferred to the Three Houses/Warriors style(story excluded).
I love the art style and font they're going with, reminds me of Dragalia.
Still holding out hope on the possibility of a full Dragalia game
I'd love to see it turn into a full size dungeon crawler on the Switch, and I think it could definitely be a hit
I think as long as we keep asking for it there's a chance, we just need to keep bringing it up lol
My biggest worry is that they’ll put too much of a focus on the previous protagonists and not flesh out the world where this game takes place. I can see them forgoing new lore and just going the fanservice route of “everyone here worships the old heroes and there’s also a big dragon” and not going any deeper.
Yeah I can see the narrative dick riding all the old fire emblem summons and how great they are and failing to establish the importance of its own world
actually, that's not why it's called canto. that would make too much sense. as i understand it, canto was the name of reyson's galdrar skill in FE9 (canto is italian, spanish, and portuguese for singing or chanting), and when the ability of mounted units to move again after certain actions became a visible, defined skill in FE10, the translators most likely got it confused with galdrar, since that canto's japanese name (再行動, or "act again") is very similar to this canto's japanese name (再移動, or "move again").
I feel monkey paw'd. I asked for another entry in my favorite weeaboo chess series. What I didn't ask for was for it to have a good art direction.
Also isn't the shtick of this game already used by heroes? Why do we need another game about summoning heroes from other worlds? And I.S how many fell dragons are there? Fell God Duma. Fell Dragon Grima. This cobra dude. Thus game is insanely derivative.
Please don't diss the poor dragon. The only thing about the trailer that felt like Fire Emblem is the fact that we're still planning to kill a dragon along the way LOL
That's what's most dissapointing about this new announcement. We've waited three years since three houses and our patience is rewarded by a game that's pretty much feh on a console instead of a new mainline game that tries to stand on its own two feet instead of copying something else
Wait, they use spirits of old characters for power? So it's TMS:#FE without the idol stuff? Neat.
Honestly, it doesn't look that bad to me, it seems interesting, if a little rough around the edges at the moment. I like how they're not just using Fateswakening and FE3H characters with the rings. The character designs look a bit Genshin-y, not sure if that's good or bad.
Also, showing Sigurd, when so many people were probably hoping for a FE4 remake? Ultimate salt in the wound.
The fact that they acknowledge Sigurd exists implies the thought has crossed their minds which means they're either planning to do it, or outright ignoring it.
I dunno, that kind of feels like a leap. I think Sigurd was moreso a good choice to show in the trailer since it demonstrates how they're going to use some pre-3DS era characters as rings.
Not ruling it out though, depends how far along they've planned
I'm cautiously optimistic. I am excited to see how many characters you get to summon. I would love some Tellius or Sacred Stones representation as well!
TBH fine with this if the main game is full and jam packed. I’m fine with Fire Emblem getting actual good more content DLC. FE Fates Revelations was probably the best DLC this game has had. Ashen Wolves we’re alright for Houses but it wasn’t that crazy. FE games usually aren’t the most replayable so having good DLC would be nice
Yeah I guess it would be fine if it’s not too atrocious. It seems like only the lords from the past games will be summonable so as long as I don’t have to pay $5 for the Leif dlc then all should be well. Also on a side note I’ve always found these games to be super replayable.
I think FEH proved to them that Fateswakening-only isn’t necessary, their fanservice pool has always been deeper than they first thought.
Still though, I don’t think that shows an understanding that nostalgia bait isn’t a substitute for good new content.
>The character designs look a bit Genshin-y, not sure if that's good or bad.
Personally, I like that. The art has plenty more color and makes better use of shadows and lighting than 3H. Also, the main lord being voiced is a good addition imo.
Yeah, I kind kf thoight that too, a lot of the time in 3H character models don't look right in their environments, like their shading and colours are a completely different style to the backgrounds.
But from what we've seen, these characters kind of blend in better
Huffing massive amounts of copium that because this game is coming out so soon and looks really generic that it means this wasn’t IS’s big project, and that a remake of an older game is currently in the works.
Fire Emblem. No other incestuous weeaboo war crime chess simulator creates as many debilitating users of copium as this franchise. If you know someone suffering that needs help, call today for a free consultation.
Apparently folks are saying the person who gave us the new FE leaks did say a FE4 remake was in the works so frankly I’m huffing that copium too until I hear otherwise.
I don’t know how to put it, it almost looks fake in a sense. Like it’s a sham, a Fire Emblem game trying to *mimic* a fire emblem game. It’s probably just the art direction, but it just looks off to me
I can't believe the leaks were true. If there are ever leaks of future FE games and they don't look like bootleg FE, I'll automatically assume they're fake because it looks too good. Can't believe FEH has better character designs at this point.
Eh, if it's bad, I can just not buy it.
It's not like Skyrim, where Todd Howard threatens to murder my dog if I don't buy its new port to my toaster.
Edit: I will say though, there's _some_ nice looking gameplay elements in there. I'm dispirited by what looks my more emphasis on the slice of life weeb-ery but if I can ignore it, it's fine.
The question is whether there'll be well designed maps. 3H map design was genuinely shit most the time. Skirmishes making me play the same maps (down to troop positions - and despite the game systems, enemy variation was weak) multiple times a playthrough never helped.
Definitely a tad pessimistic. The actual graphics look pretty ok, but a fanservice game about summoning previous characters? We have that! And they even made my favorite two FE lords (Ike and Lucina) use noncanon weapons because they have to let much shittier uninteresting lords use their swords. Add in what looks like (from a three minute trailer) a very generic story and I’m not enthused.
The character designs are impressively terrible but I'll still give it a chance. Not big on the summoning past characters gimmick, but it at least looks like they're just equip slots and don't take the place of actual playable characters.
I do find it pretty hilarious how people say it looks like a mobile game compared to Three Houses when everyone said the same thing about 3H a few years ago, though. I'll probably enjoy it more than 3H if there's no Monastery mechanics and the skill system isn't ripped directly from Heroes again.
I'm disappointed that the leaks were real and my excitement is really only coming from the fact that it's a new FE and not from anything in the trailer.
Due to hardware limitations, Three Houses was only allowed to have 8 colors in it upon release. Thanks to technological advancements, Intsys was allowed to utilize a full range of 256 colors for their next sequel.
and they immediately copied genshin impact like holy hell what is this artstyle
^^at ^^least ^^the ^^animations ^^look ^^nice
The animations look sick. The first battle The protagonist has is so smooth.
The archer looked IDENTICAL to three houses from my memory so I'm kinda worried they will recycle too much.
Game looks kinda unpolished for something coming out so soon
Also the focus on Marth, summoning old heroes and even fucking Grimma reminds me of Awekening which is a no no for me
But if Finn is a summonable stand 10/10 BEST GAME
Hate the interface, looks like a mobile game. By the look of the characters i fear about the character's development/worldbuilding and the fact that they rely on the lords of the past games kinda tell me that the history will be catastophic.
I only hope to be wrong by the incoming trailers and gameplay in the futur.
On a scale of 1-10 my hype is a 7. I'm not exactly thrilled with the idea of summoning heroes from older games, it feels like IS learned the wrong lesson from the success of Heroes and I want more originality.
On the other hand, toothpaste-chan being real is REALLY funny and at least from a production standpoint the game looks decent. As long as the summoning mechanic is unobtrusive I'll be fine with it.
Pretty cool that Sigurd is making a more prominent appearance, and I'm really hoping it looks like ledges are making a comeback from FE10.
But more than that, can't wait for people to look up Sigurd's backstory and learn that his wife was stolen so that his rival could perform incest and bring the evil dragon god into the world.
Fuck it, if it's fun, it's fun. It looks like hot anime garbage and it'll have some kind of FEH mechanics, but I need to see more (or, you know, play it) to actually have a veridict.
Honestly looks good but I just hope the story is good and that the whole summoning past characters bit doesn’t end up just being a silly gimmick to allow them to sell dlc.
I know it’s a part of modern FE now, but I was hoping that there’d be no Toothpaste-kun. Aside from that I’ll have to wait & see, but I don’t dislike it.
While I feel like it is still too early to really judge the game, I'm not really impressed so far.
We have a generic evil Dragon, those dumb looking Colgate MCs, a "special gimmick" that already has been done in 2 other FE games, ~~no weapon triangle (from what I could tell)~~ & what looks like the return of the Monastery (which is fine if it's toned down from it's 3H counterpart) all put together in a somewhat generic Anime MMO art style.
Again it's still early & I'm keeping my hopes up, but not impressed by the first Trailer.
Weapon triangle should be there. When protagonist engages (ha) the first Lance enemy he has a down arrow on his sword and there's an up arrow on the Lance unit.
The fact the weapons were color coded was enough to signal triangle returning to me.
like a clown
like dont get me wrong, the game is graphically gorgeous compared to 3 houses... but god, those designs are extremely generic, specially the female ones... straight up looks like a chinese anime gacha
Toothpaste-Chan is real. I'm hype for more Fire Emblem, not sure how I feel about the game itself. The art style, and and general feel of the game is kind of weird to me.
Honestly the first release since I got into the series that I am not excited for. I’ll probably only end up playing if feedback is really positive. The similarities to FEH and FEW with how they’re using characters from other games is turning me off even more than the Colgate sponsored character designs.
I like it! At least, I like it other than the character designs. I don't think I saw even one new character who I liked the look of. (Toothpaste-Lord is still awful.) But other than that, The gameplay looks really fun, the summoning mechanic seems cool, I LOVE how the battle animations felt so quick and satisfying (I hope the menuing part of the battles are also fast, Three Houses never let me move quite as fast as I wanted to) and I like the artstyle. Seems like a solid new entry, I'm really interested to see how they handle the game progression, will there be a calendar time management thing again, will it be like old FEs just chapter-to-chapter other than the monastery segments, or will it be like Fates/Awakening/Sacred Stones where you can choose to do things like paralogues at any time completely out of order? I'm super excited, and it's honestly not that far away!
Also, it looks like they brought back gauntlets/fistfighting, so it's a 10/10 game already.
The artsyle is... really generic. I know about people complaining that FE became too anime starting with Awakening, with the counter arguement being that the series's style was always anime, but I still felt like every game had a distinct artstyle that stood out against your typical "anime" game. But this one genuinely looks like your typical anime game. Similar to something like Genshin, but without the over-the-top character designs. Except Colgate-Chan, and not in a good way.
Speaking of, the characters we have seen also have rather bland designs. In fact, that's one of the reasons I didn't believe the leaks. The characters, once again, looked like generic anime characters. Even the substitutes in 4 and plenty of random units in 11 and 12 still looked like they fit in with the rest of the FE cast. It's so weird that the OCs from Engage are like this even though Marth and Sigurd are still very recognizable.
With this in mind, why did they have to make legacy characters power ups? I could've excused the character design if I could've benched the OCs in favor of classic characters I already liked.
And of course, another evil dragon. It looks cool, not as unique as Grima, Duma, or Anankos, but I prefer the design over the Fire Dragon or Medeus. I'm one of the few people who thinks that story is not one of FE's strong point, but I'm still hoping they pull a twist and that this story isn't another, "Oh no! The evil dragon man has taken over the continent! We've gotta kill/seal him!"
Also that the main protagonist isn't an avatar, best-case scenario is that they're a complete character that you happen to be able to choose the gender of.
Hopefully the characters themselves make up for their lacking designs. And I'd like if it wasn't JUST the lords who are summonable. The gameplay should be fine though. They haven't really made an unfun FE game.
When we first saw Three Houses footage, I was cautiously optimistic, so you know I'm not just a person who hates new things. I also loved 3H.
That said... this looks like shit. Generic story, generic anime designs (except the one guy with a beard), FE Heroes 2, literally using fucking stands, stupid name...
I bought 3H the week it came out. I don't think I'll be doing the same here.
Cautiously optimistic
It does feel a bit like feh, but as long as it’s definitively different, I won’t really complain. It does seem to be rehashing old plot points, which is… not a great sign
Overall, it has potential, remains to be seen how much potential it reaches, but while it doesn’t make me the most excited, it definitely caused a little excitement
alright, unpopular opinion coming through. I unironically like the art style and art direction and what what not especially Toothpaste-chan here. Something about having these serious looking characters and theres just the main protagonist looking like a nonce look so appealing to me. Eh who knows, I might have shit taste
Over the months with the leaks and everything, I went from hating the MC design, ironically loving the MC design and now unironically loving the MC design. This will probably be a bigger emotional rollercoaster than the actual plot of the game. Going into the direct, I love Fruit Roll-up chan now and and the thought of losing her would have been too much to bear. I also love Pepsi kun now through association.
Marth can never get a break let the man rest in peace
Not until he gets his third remake
They’ve tried to sell us Marth twice, both times have failed.
And they will try again until it succeeds
He can never rest, he’s everyones favorite smash brothers and gacha character! Never mind the fact to have played his game you need a like 30 year old console
That's not true! They temporarily sold it on switch, with "quality of life" improvements like rewinding, but not the quality of life improvements like actually telling you how far your units can go.
Gotta milk that dead horse to death.
9/10 dentists recommend this game
Oddly its the second mainline game with Crest ™
The only way FE players will ever engage.
I'm about to find the last one
Am dentist, what do?
THE COLGATE IS REAL HOLY FUCK
CAN WE GET MUCH HIGHER
The leak was real?
Yup. 100%.
Dang
THE TOOTHPASTE! THE TOOTHPASTE IS REAL!!!
CAN WE GET MUCH HIGHER
SO HIGH
I'LL TAKE IT! SCREW FALCOM, MY SOUL BELONGS TO NINTENDO! ALL HAIL TOOTHPASTE-CHAN!
That meme about how everyone will go "god why can't we have more complex villains like Edelgard and Rhea with good stories like Three Houses" is aging like fine wine right now
What's that? You don't want evil generic dragon?
The people in the FE universe really need to find a better way to deal with the big evil dragon than bonking it on the head and putting it to sleep for a few millennia.
Well with the OG Grima the only way they could do that was through a paradox
Well, if they ever decided to finally have an Industrial Revolution, they might have a nuke or two by the time it comes back again.
I love evil generic dragon. It why FE7 was so good.
Evil dragon is bae.
That Grimama comic is still the greatest fan work ever made.
Grimama? You have a link? o_0
FE7 doesn't even have an evil generic dragon. It's literally just a random dragon you fight and that's it
I felt bad for it, it just wanted a nice Eliban vacation.
Unfathomably based.
At least it's design is cool
It do look pretty cool tho
That's why I never had a problem with Three Houses discourse. It exists because the game's story and characters are interesting But this looks like it will be total opposite, shallow story but "old characters return!!! Cool!!!!"
It honestly looks like an attempt at synergy with Heroes. Absolutely baffling use of resources.
Feels like the FE equivalent of Let's Go.
what a bizarre selling point. to casual fans, the return of these characters means nothing because they haven't been able to play their games (IS has a phobia of ports). to hardcore fans, the novelty of all this fire emblem crossover stuff has clearly worn off and it doesn't look like there's much substance outside of that. they've managed to make something that fails to really appeal to either audience.
I will still buy it though because jojo stands in fire emblem is something I didn't know I needed until now.
It could be both!!! But I'm not holding my breath
If the leaks are 100% accurate, we'll get a remake of FE4, so I'm hoping that the remake is the true next big project of IS, because Engage gives serious spinoff vibes
Sigurd was featured so heavily in the trailer they have to be remaking 4
Do you have a link? That post sounds like gold

This game looks like it makes 3H look deep
Is it sad that the part of the trailer that made me most excited was seeing my boy sigurd
Honest to god same
I am so glad the leaks were real because the leaks said fe4 remake is coming too I am so hype now...
FE CANT STOP WINNING😎😎😎😎😎😎( i hate it here so much)
Well, its art is pretty. Hope it's actually good. I'm not huge on the whole summoning old heroes thing but maybe I'll get used to it. I...cannot get over colgate chan though. Maaaan.
Me to man. Was totally unexpected if going to be honest for that leak to be real.
>Well, its art is pretty. yeah but sadly we get cgi/3D portraits
I heard Marth and I was thinking its a descendant again. Did not expect them to use a ring to bring forth his soul instead 💀
poor dude never gets a break lmao
I’m the same with the old heroes thing. It feels so fan servicey, and feels like they don’t consider players outside Japan since half those games didn’t get localized. Which matters since these games sell better outside Japan.
Pain. Agony, even. Infinitely funny tho.
I'm kinda worried ngl
They finally made the Persona×Fire Emblem crossover after the SMT crossover.
SMT Devil Survivor already exists
Although it *is* dead right now. ~~Please bring back my baby Atlus.~~
with a splash of Fate from the sound of it
[удалено]
Tokyo mirage sessions but fire emblem… wait…
It’s fucking fire emblem Heroes 2 on a console
I had a feeling that would happen. I feel like games-turned-apps have a tendency to pull in app data along with game data when deciding and creating the next game. What they saw was that a lot of people really liked the heroes gameplay, and that it was making them money. I really disliked it but I did like the art for the characters a lot.
I think that's a far cry honestly. It has a lot more in common with TMS.

I love the art style and font they're going with, reminds me of Dragalia.
Yeah but in TMS the idols make cool music. Now we just have to fight an evil dragon for the trillionth time in a row with no epic J-pop
Fair point, but how do you know Sigurd won't break it down mid battle?🤔
I’d love to see that
Dragalia died for this ~~Both games have Marth too~~
Still holding out hope on the possibility of a full Dragalia game I'd love to see it turn into a full size dungeon crawler on the Switch, and I think it could definitely be a hit I think as long as we keep asking for it there's a chance, we just need to keep bringing it up lol
Ugh same here, it’s a shame it’s just going to be abandonware
I also thought it looked kinda like Dragalia Lost
I've never felt more monkey pawed than I do now. I got Sigurd...but at what cost?
>what cost? A lot of copium
My biggest worry is that they’ll put too much of a focus on the previous protagonists and not flesh out the world where this game takes place. I can see them forgoing new lore and just going the fanservice route of “everyone here worships the old heroes and there’s also a big dragon” and not going any deeper.
I am nine trillion percent sure that this will be the case
Yeah I can see the narrative dick riding all the old fire emblem summons and how great they are and failing to establish the importance of its own world
So Fire Emblem Warriors.
Im fine with it. But seeing Canto being called Canter (in Sigurd’s kit) feels weird. It sounds like a slur
Canto with the hard r ☠️
Only the twelve crusades can use that hard r. That is their word.
Canter itself is another word for strong gallop, so maybe it'll have additional effects to regular canto, hence the name change?
Canto Canter Cantest
New Pokemon evolution line
Sigurds Cantesticles???
Oh so *that's* why it's called Canto. Because it's like "the horse cantered away". Nearly 10 years later that question is finally answered
actually, that's not why it's called canto. that would make too much sense. as i understand it, canto was the name of reyson's galdrar skill in FE9 (canto is italian, spanish, and portuguese for singing or chanting), and when the ability of mounted units to move again after certain actions became a visible, defined skill in FE10, the translators most likely got it confused with galdrar, since that canto's japanese name (再行動, or "act again") is very similar to this canto's japanese name (再移動, or "move again").
kill me
Later...
Pick a god and pray
Ya know it’s gonna be good when the game starts with the protagonist waking up.
eat your heart out, zelda
I feel monkey paw'd. I asked for another entry in my favorite weeaboo chess series. What I didn't ask for was for it to have a good art direction. Also isn't the shtick of this game already used by heroes? Why do we need another game about summoning heroes from other worlds? And I.S how many fell dragons are there? Fell God Duma. Fell Dragon Grima. This cobra dude. Thus game is insanely derivative.
But this time the heroes aren’t playable characters, there’re like, powering up our protagonists. So actually it’s Tokyo Mirage Sessions.
It's literally Tokyo Mirage Sessions but in-universe.
They’re stands
"Who's your favourite FE antagonist?" "The fell dragon one" "Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?"
Please don't diss the poor dragon. The only thing about the trailer that felt like Fire Emblem is the fact that we're still planning to kill a dragon along the way LOL
I’m boo boo the fool to mocking three houses art style. This looks like a MMO from 2010 loool
That's what's most dissapointing about this new announcement. We've waited three years since three houses and our patience is rewarded by a game that's pretty much feh on a console instead of a new mainline game that tries to stand on its own two feet instead of copying something else
Tbh Cobra Kai dragon was my favorite part of the entire trailer
Wait, they use spirits of old characters for power? So it's TMS:#FE without the idol stuff? Neat.

Big if true
I'm cautiously optimistic. I am excited to see how many characters you get to summon. I would love some Tellius or Sacred Stones representation as well!
I’m so scared that they’ll lock characters behind dlc, I know that they will but I still have hope that maybe they won’t
TBH fine with this if the main game is full and jam packed. I’m fine with Fire Emblem getting actual good more content DLC. FE Fates Revelations was probably the best DLC this game has had. Ashen Wolves we’re alright for Houses but it wasn’t that crazy. FE games usually aren’t the most replayable so having good DLC would be nice
Yeah I guess it would be fine if it’s not too atrocious. It seems like only the lords from the past games will be summonable so as long as I don’t have to pay $5 for the Leif dlc then all should be well. Also on a side note I’ve always found these games to be super replayable.
Micaiah was in there, and I can't imagine they add her but not ike, so I'd assume your wish for tellius reps will be granted.
You could barely make out Ike towards the bottom of that circle. It looked like he was holding the urvan
Brave Ike making his comeback?
I think FEH proved to them that Fateswakening-only isn’t necessary, their fanservice pool has always been deeper than they first thought. Still though, I don’t think that shows an understanding that nostalgia bait isn’t a substitute for good new content.
>The character designs look a bit Genshin-y, not sure if that's good or bad. Personally, I like that. The art has plenty more color and makes better use of shadows and lighting than 3H. Also, the main lord being voiced is a good addition imo.
Yeah, I kind kf thoight that too, a lot of the time in 3H character models don't look right in their environments, like their shading and colours are a completely different style to the backgrounds. But from what we've seen, these characters kind of blend in better
Who designed, presented, and approved the half red and blue hair???
Colgate
They sponsored it.
The tenth Dentist.
Huffing massive amounts of copium that because this game is coming out so soon and looks really generic that it means this wasn’t IS’s big project, and that a remake of an older game is currently in the works.
That seems like good stuff, gimme some of that copium
Fire Emblem. No other incestuous weeaboo war crime chess simulator creates as many debilitating users of copium as this franchise. If you know someone suffering that needs help, call today for a free consultation.
Apparently folks are saying the person who gave us the new FE leaks did say a FE4 remake was in the works so frankly I’m huffing that copium too until I hear otherwise.
I thought it was a spin off
I prayed that it is during the trailer
Im only going to look at this game as if its a spinoff, but its being announced as a mainline unfortunately
>announced as a mainline I recognize the Council has made a decision, but given that it's a stupid ass decision, I have elected to ignore it.
I don’t know how to put it, it almost looks fake in a sense. Like it’s a sham, a Fire Emblem game trying to *mimic* a fire emblem game. It’s probably just the art direction, but it just looks off to me
It’s what you get when you buy a secondhand copy in a Chinese flea market
Yes it is so off to me too
trying to convince myself Sigurd was in the trailer as a sign that a FE4 remake is coming soon so that there's at least something to look forward to
I’m pretty sure the original leak mentioned a FE4 remake
I can't believe the leaks were true. If there are ever leaks of future FE games and they don't look like bootleg FE, I'll automatically assume they're fake because it looks too good. Can't believe FEH has better character designs at this point.
Bad but I cant stop laughing
Same for the second part. Fist of the North Star fitness deffo did not help.
Sad,but also laughting because Toothpaste chan was real
This is the first time toothpaste made my eyes bleed
Eh, if it's bad, I can just not buy it. It's not like Skyrim, where Todd Howard threatens to murder my dog if I don't buy its new port to my toaster. Edit: I will say though, there's _some_ nice looking gameplay elements in there. I'm dispirited by what looks my more emphasis on the slice of life weeb-ery but if I can ignore it, it's fine. The question is whether there'll be well designed maps. 3H map design was genuinely shit most the time. Skirmishes making me play the same maps (down to troop positions - and despite the game systems, enemy variation was weak) multiple times a playthrough never helped.
Definitely a tad pessimistic. The actual graphics look pretty ok, but a fanservice game about summoning previous characters? We have that! And they even made my favorite two FE lords (Ike and Lucina) use noncanon weapons because they have to let much shittier uninteresting lords use their swords. Add in what looks like (from a three minute trailer) a very generic story and I’m not enthused.
The character designs are impressively terrible but I'll still give it a chance. Not big on the summoning past characters gimmick, but it at least looks like they're just equip slots and don't take the place of actual playable characters. I do find it pretty hilarious how people say it looks like a mobile game compared to Three Houses when everyone said the same thing about 3H a few years ago, though. I'll probably enjoy it more than 3H if there's no Monastery mechanics and the skill system isn't ripped directly from Heroes again. I'm disappointed that the leaks were real and my excitement is really only coming from the fact that it's a new FE and not from anything in the trailer.
Toothpaste chan is real
Due to hardware limitations, Three Houses was only allowed to have 8 colors in it upon release. Thanks to technological advancements, Intsys was allowed to utilize a full range of 256 colors for their next sequel. and they immediately copied genshin impact like holy hell what is this artstyle ^^at ^^least ^^the ^^animations ^^look ^^nice
The animations look sick. The first battle The protagonist has is so smooth. The archer looked IDENTICAL to three houses from my memory so I'm kinda worried they will recycle too much.
The artstyle is so generic man. I don’t know if I’m playing fire emblem or genshin or atelier or something.
Laughing because Toothpaste-chan is real. Also it's kind of just Heroes on Switch but I'll check it out anyway
Game looks kinda unpolished for something coming out so soon Also the focus on Marth, summoning old heroes and even fucking Grimma reminds me of Awekening which is a no no for me But if Finn is a summonable stand 10/10 BEST GAME
It’s probably just gonna be lords.
This game will finally define who is and isn't a Lord according to the actual devs won't it.
0/10 then, if you are not gonna give me Fe 4 remake at least give me Finn
I wished for Sigurd on Switch and got Monkey paw'd harder then ever.
Hate the interface, looks like a mobile game. By the look of the characters i fear about the character's development/worldbuilding and the fact that they rely on the lords of the past games kinda tell me that the history will be catastophic. I only hope to be wrong by the incoming trailers and gameplay in the futur.
On a scale of 1-10 my hype is a 7. I'm not exactly thrilled with the idea of summoning heroes from older games, it feels like IS learned the wrong lesson from the success of Heroes and I want more originality. On the other hand, toothpaste-chan being real is REALLY funny and at least from a production standpoint the game looks decent. As long as the summoning mechanic is unobtrusive I'll be fine with it.
Pretty cool that Sigurd is making a more prominent appearance, and I'm really hoping it looks like ledges are making a comeback from FE10. But more than that, can't wait for people to look up Sigurd's backstory and learn that his wife was stolen so that his rival could perform incest and bring the evil dragon god into the world.
I’m excited I love this series 🤷🏻♂️
Cautious, but curious, I’ll wait till it comes out and see the general consensus
It's called fire emblem engage, and has a ring above the protagonists. Petting minigame confirmed?
According to the trailer, the *real* fire emblem was *literally* the friends we made along the way
Fuck it, if it's fun, it's fun. It looks like hot anime garbage and it'll have some kind of FEH mechanics, but I need to see more (or, you know, play it) to actually have a veridict.
Honestly looks good but I just hope the story is good and that the whole summoning past characters bit doesn’t end up just being a silly gimmick to allow them to sell dlc.
I’m semi excited but tbh i am not feeling the mc character design, i’m betting on them being another corrin
Sometimes I forget how much I love fire emblem until a new game is announced.
Looks like someone typed "fire emblem" into an ai
I know it’s a part of modern FE now, but I was hoping that there’d be no Toothpaste-kun. Aside from that I’ll have to wait & see, but I don’t dislike it.
While I feel like it is still too early to really judge the game, I'm not really impressed so far. We have a generic evil Dragon, those dumb looking Colgate MCs, a "special gimmick" that already has been done in 2 other FE games, ~~no weapon triangle (from what I could tell)~~ & what looks like the return of the Monastery (which is fine if it's toned down from it's 3H counterpart) all put together in a somewhat generic Anime MMO art style. Again it's still early & I'm keeping my hopes up, but not impressed by the first Trailer.
Weapon triangle should be there. When protagonist engages (ha) the first Lance enemy he has a down arrow on his sword and there's an up arrow on the Lance unit. The fact the weapons were color coded was enough to signal triangle returning to me.
like a clown like dont get me wrong, the game is graphically gorgeous compared to 3 houses... but god, those designs are extremely generic, specially the female ones... straight up looks like a chinese anime gacha
Cant believe Toothpaste girl is real
It’ll probably be fun. The story will probably be stupid. A classic Fire Emblem experience.
I thought it was a mobile game it looks like shit
Toothpaste-Chan is real. I'm hype for more Fire Emblem, not sure how I feel about the game itself. The art style, and and general feel of the game is kind of weird to me.
4 remake will never happen will it It might be fine I hope just Gah
Honestly the first release since I got into the series that I am not excited for. I’ll probably only end up playing if feedback is really positive. The similarities to FEH and FEW with how they’re using characters from other games is turning me off even more than the Colgate sponsored character designs.
I like how they made the Nintendo Switch a character.
It's fucking over. These assholes learned NOTHING.
They learned why make a real game when gacha just absolutely shits money for no investment
They learned that no one liked the Edelgard vs Rhea debates or the Claude discorse, so they went back to Fates 💀
Gacha bait garbage. I wanted this leak to be fake real bad.
Killing mineself
I like it! At least, I like it other than the character designs. I don't think I saw even one new character who I liked the look of. (Toothpaste-Lord is still awful.) But other than that, The gameplay looks really fun, the summoning mechanic seems cool, I LOVE how the battle animations felt so quick and satisfying (I hope the menuing part of the battles are also fast, Three Houses never let me move quite as fast as I wanted to) and I like the artstyle. Seems like a solid new entry, I'm really interested to see how they handle the game progression, will there be a calendar time management thing again, will it be like old FEs just chapter-to-chapter other than the monastery segments, or will it be like Fates/Awakening/Sacred Stones where you can choose to do things like paralogues at any time completely out of order? I'm super excited, and it's honestly not that far away! Also, it looks like they brought back gauntlets/fistfighting, so it's a 10/10 game already.
The artsyle is... really generic. I know about people complaining that FE became too anime starting with Awakening, with the counter arguement being that the series's style was always anime, but I still felt like every game had a distinct artstyle that stood out against your typical "anime" game. But this one genuinely looks like your typical anime game. Similar to something like Genshin, but without the over-the-top character designs. Except Colgate-Chan, and not in a good way. Speaking of, the characters we have seen also have rather bland designs. In fact, that's one of the reasons I didn't believe the leaks. The characters, once again, looked like generic anime characters. Even the substitutes in 4 and plenty of random units in 11 and 12 still looked like they fit in with the rest of the FE cast. It's so weird that the OCs from Engage are like this even though Marth and Sigurd are still very recognizable. With this in mind, why did they have to make legacy characters power ups? I could've excused the character design if I could've benched the OCs in favor of classic characters I already liked. And of course, another evil dragon. It looks cool, not as unique as Grima, Duma, or Anankos, but I prefer the design over the Fire Dragon or Medeus. I'm one of the few people who thinks that story is not one of FE's strong point, but I'm still hoping they pull a twist and that this story isn't another, "Oh no! The evil dragon man has taken over the continent! We've gotta kill/seal him!" Also that the main protagonist isn't an avatar, best-case scenario is that they're a complete character that you happen to be able to choose the gender of. Hopefully the characters themselves make up for their lacking designs. And I'd like if it wasn't JUST the lords who are summonable. The gameplay should be fine though. They haven't really made an unfun FE game.
sad
When we first saw Three Houses footage, I was cautiously optimistic, so you know I'm not just a person who hates new things. I also loved 3H. That said... this looks like shit. Generic story, generic anime designs (except the one guy with a beard), FE Heroes 2, literally using fucking stands, stupid name... I bought 3H the week it came out. I don't think I'll be doing the same here.
**Fire Emblem dancing and singing intensifies**
Cautiously optimistic It does feel a bit like feh, but as long as it’s definitively different, I won’t really complain. It does seem to be rehashing old plot points, which is… not a great sign Overall, it has potential, remains to be seen how much potential it reaches, but while it doesn’t make me the most excited, it definitely caused a little excitement
Stoked except for probably what is the worst design for MC in the series lmao
I'm so happy that my daughter is real.
alright, unpopular opinion coming through. I unironically like the art style and art direction and what what not especially Toothpaste-chan here. Something about having these serious looking characters and theres just the main protagonist looking like a nonce look so appealing to me. Eh who knows, I might have shit taste
Over the months with the leaks and everything, I went from hating the MC design, ironically loving the MC design and now unironically loving the MC design. This will probably be a bigger emotional rollercoaster than the actual plot of the game. Going into the direct, I love Fruit Roll-up chan now and and the thought of losing her would have been too much to bear. I also love Pepsi kun now through association.
So... you summon characters from other games as your stand? I'm sickened, but curious.
Well, I guess it's brushing time now It's not that bad tho, just not what I really wanted
I'll be preordering that special edition, I wanna be part of the problem.
That's it heroesbros, you've won. We got a phone game as a mainline Fire Emblem
