Engage Leak Thread *CAUTION: SPOILERS AHOY*
Sentinel07 replied to Azz's topic in Fire Emblem: Engage
Can we get like a condensed summary of the story so far? Kind of hard looking through the fragments of it with the various posts. -
Agreed. It really feels like the women are the biggest eyesores. The big ones for me are Hortensia and Celine. Hortensia is pretty self explanatory with her outfit. For Celine, both her dress and hair are ridiculous to me. Both that poofy dress and long untamed hair that's almost as long as she is.
-
I hope so. IS doesn't have the best track record when it comes to stereotypes.
-
Honestly, the more I've thought about it, the more I came to that exact conclusion about why the game is not resonating with me. Everything about it, from the aesthetic and art style to the transformations to the shojo stuff...this game feels like something out of a magical girl anime.
-
Three Hopes activities are a bit more serious. There is the usual cooking stuff, but other activities are like taking care of the horses and weapon organizing and such. Tea time was replaced with Expeditions. I do kind of agree with you in general. More activities isn't bad, but I too would prefer some more serious stuff compared to "let's have fun together" stuff that Engage seems to be going for.
-
I think what rubs some people the wrong way is that they seem to be putting time into the simulation aspects. Like, doing all the Monastery stuff in Three Houses easily took up more playthrough time than you were in battles. Ad all these new mini games make it feel like they're trying to make you spend more time in the sim elements compared to battles.
-
Can't say I'm too happy about all the shojo and interactive "rubbing" stuff coming back. All this kind of stuff was creepy back in Fates. I had hoped they had learned when Three Houses scaled that sort of stuff back.
-
Not a surprise, and I'm surprised so many people around the net are surprised. Nintendo has been doing this for a while now. Even Three Houses had it's DLC announced around when it came out. Though I do find the "continue your adventures" line hilariously ironic given it's coming the same day as the game. 😄
-
At this point, I'm having trouble finding a design in this game that isn't a complete joke.
-
It'd be be nice if we started getting some English versions of these Engage information videos. Sucks that NoA has been completely silent since the last trailer.
-
I hope so too. NGL, her little "I hope you're hungry for fun" line from the trailer kind of made me groan a little. Hoping for some depth beyond just being happy go lucky.
-
It's why I wish Japan would be less stingy when it comes to recasting. Why restrict what you can do with a character because of an actors stupidity.
-
Would have liked Ivy's design a lot more without the spikes.
-
What we know of Engage's mechanics so far.

I thought Ridersbane was what Sigurd granted, unless there was a video I missed. -
She didn't break NDA. She even stated that was not the reason she was recasted. Also, she still voices characters in Heroes.
-
I'll definitely say this. The Brodia designs are a major improvement over the Firene designs.
-
Just wanted to share this. The subtitles reveal the English names of some characters, such as Lumera for the dragon mom and Veyle as the little girl.
-
Really seems like this artist is just plain terrible with faces. Dragon mom barely looks older than Alear. Does this artist just know how to do one girl face? Even Vale has the same face despite having a younger appearance.
-
It's now how she was killed, but when. They killed her with very little time for the player to care. That's bad storytelling.
-
To be perfectly honest, a big reason why I don't like Awakenings story is that I don't think they executed it well. Rather it felt like 3 separate stories stitched together with little cohesion and not enough time to flesh them out. Now to mention how Valm is barely needed at all and just took focus away from Ylisse. Cohesion seems to be something Intelligent Systems struggles with of late, which is a shame because the GBA and Tellius eras did very well at execution.
-
Mikoto's death was outright ridiculous. Debuts after Chapter 4's map ends and dies before the next map begins. Can't believe any of Fates writers thought that was a good idea. Is it really that hard to write more characters like Greil and Jeralt? At least you got multiple chapters of interaction to learn about them before they kicked the bucket.
-
You know, I think I'd like this game's art style a lot more if it actually looked closer to that snapshot of Firene there. Because that picture actually looks really good. Colorful but not to a gaudy extent. Helps to give it a little more of an old medieval feel.
-
Story seems like a point for point copy of Awakening with a little bit of Fates thrown in. Talk about bare minimum effort.
-
Kind and down to earth is so boring though. Hell, that's literally all Corrin was.
-
The designs for the men seem a lot more distinct, especially with the facial designs. Compared to the women who all have the same face. Also, I seriously hope more distinct personalities are on the horizon. "Polite and kind" literally describes every character they've shown off so far.
