This. Incentivizing riskier play makes maps more fun: turn limit + villages + tough mobs that drop good items = not turtling

Also hoping it won't be Corrin 2.0 where they mention the dragon thing in one cutscene and then you swap to swordsmaster and leave your DStone to collect dust in the convoy. And on the color scheme, it's definitely out there but if they were another blue hair lord people would just be giving the opposite complaints they are now. I've seen some edits where people lowered the saturation on Alear's hair color to make it pop less and in some respects I think it looks better but, honestly I think they chose right to commit to the really flashy colors, I mean it's an anime game, since when has conservative and muted been the style? I also wouldn't be surprised at all if in a few years people complain about the lords in a new game looking too boring, saying they miss the design of Alear, and having completely forgotten how controversial their design was at the time.
