Yeah that's some good design. Sigh..

I f*cking knew that optional outfits were only wearable in your home base and not in battles. That sucks, I wanted all my units to wear college jackets to battle in this "medieval" fantasy war game. Bummer. Welp, guess my units have to fight in clown outfits.

@Azz Can you post a picture of Jean? Or at least tell me in which preview I can find him?

....So any reason why Alfred can't move into the darkness? Is this a general change for FoW maps?

Can you tell me where you got the Seadall/Micaiah screenshot from?

Weird that Nintendo only invited those two to the preview event. Either that, or the other publications take their time with the previews.

This. Couldn't have said it better myself. I'm not against the idea of a Turn Wheel per se. I just don't like how IntSys executes it.

This will totally not lead to creepy situations. Yep, yep.

It appears to me that IntSys/Nintendo failed to make people happy with the DLC announcement. Feels like the discourse around this game in general turned even more sour than before. Not that I'm surprised. It's kinda funny, because it was the opposite with Three Houses. People were very skeptical at first, but then the Thanibomb leaks + the great E3 2019 trailer turned the mood around.

Is it confirmed that your units can wear these optional outfits on the battlefield? Feels like we only see them in the hub world.

Some quick thoughts after checking the new character portraits. 1. What's up with Rosado's voice? Did I miss something regarding this character? 2. Some solid new designs. Zelkov is probably one of my favorite. Would like to have a translation of his dialogue with Alear, he appears to be more up-beat than I expected 3. Y'all need to check Merrin's crit animation. Finally, some good f*cking food. Seadall's dance animation is pretty neat, too. 4. IntSys needs to stop making characters with split-personalities. It's neither funny nor endearing from a writing standpoint.

I have to say I greatly prefer proper war bases in the real world over "Hyperbolic Time Chambers located in magic-world". I know it doesn't make sense to leave the front lines after further penetrating into enemy territory, but the way Three Houses and Berwick Saga implemented hub-worlds is way better than how Fates and Engage do it.

Tbf, Three Houses was also "guilty" of kitschy stuff, like during the Tea Time sections. I have nothing against stuff like this per se as long as these scenes are really just innocent "Oh good morning, Toothpaste-chan!" type moments. You just never know with unchained IntSys lmao. Inb4 Marth will say "P-Please stop, I'm sensitive there!!" when you rub his ring.

FYI: The official site got an update with "new" character portraits, etc. https://www.nintendo.co.jp/switch/ayfna/

So is this hub world another Fates-esque "magic safe haven located in another dimension"? Also, these freaking modern sweatpants and compression trousers lmaoo. Fair enough, IntSys said "We just don't care anymore". Next time, just give the lord a pair of Jordan 1's Edit: Emblems reacting to the player polishing their respective rings? Random units waking you up with shoujou-manga-esque love bubbles on screen? Fairs, this really is Fates 2.
