All of those email addresses have specific purposes unrelated to customer feedback (job apps, business inquires, website issues), so messages sent there may not reach their intended audience. I can't find any other direct online contact info either though. The official Fire Emblem twitter (which I assume is what people are talking about? or else Nintendo's) also states they don't take questions there, so I'm not sure if Nintendo/Intsys looks at stuff sent there. If anyone wants to try Nintendo of Japan, they have a page for offering feedback here: https://support.nintendo.co.jp/app/ask_opinion

It depends on the execution for me too, but I don't think "true ending" focused story structure makes much sense for FE's genre? I like the use of true endings in some VNs where it feels like you're uncovering secrets by going down different routes and finally put it all together in a final route. In particular I love the Zero Escape series' diegetic take on that structure. But I don't think it's a structure that empowers player choice. Like @Digitibird mentioned it really undercuts Fates' Big Choices based set up. It serves stories where intrigue and mystery are central, which isn't really best engaged with through big tactical battles, imo. Three Houses might be different though! The school phase stuff with the Flame Emperor and Death Knight seems like it could maybe be a set up for some more engaging intrigue/secrets than "villain is controled by evil deity B"...not that I'm really confident in that but I won't dismiss the possibility.

Probably Hard Classic for limited grinding. I always end up feeling like I should grind when games give me the opportunity, so I'd rather just not have the option there.

Have they talked about that "foreign exchange students" online feature before? I feel like that's new.

Going Blue Lions first and gonna steal Dorothea for Best Girl reasons, also Blue Lions doesn't have enough magic for my tastes. I might also go for Linhardt (adorable boy, moar mages) but like others have said, I'd rather not split him and Caspar up so that might depend on how hard it'll be to get both of them...

"Those who slither in the dark" is a much more literal translation of the Japanese name than "Nightcrawlers"

The Nightcrawler descriptions are the same as what we got already.

Do the class outfits show up on Byleth in the monastery/out of battle game segments? It looks to me like they're always in their default outfit there, like every else.

I'm not sold on the new Lorenz just yet, not sure from that screenshot if this hairstyle is enough to fix his face, not to mention the personality... (The @d4ggerfish art looks as gorgeous her last design for him though ofc) Caspar on the other hand does look super improved now show me Linhardt

Nope. Just "hm, we wonder what's going on with them" fluff.

I'm definitely leaning Ingrid/Sylvain as far as potential S supports go. I would very much like to see some good supports for Edelgard/Petra, Caspar/Linhardt, and Dimitri/Felix (but I'm nowhere near optimistic enough to expect any of them to be shippable in game lol).

So this is why Blue Lions has that uneven gender ratio - it's Ingrid's five otome game routes and two girl sidekicks. It all comes together.

As far as the Japanese goes, her family does have a different rank than the others, but Gloucester and Goneril also have different titles in Japanese. (The dictionary I'm using makes Goneril a Duke, Cordelia and Gloucester are Earls, and Edmund is a Margrave).

I wonder if Rhea might only be recruitable on say, the Edelgard route, and more of an antagonist in others...

It's 堪えるなあ not 堪らない, pretty sure he finds girls being upset hard to endure, not enjoyable.
