  1. any opinions? i would look at tags to start.. i personally really like how they break the 4th wall with the dialogue of course to open; but then i start imagining conversations between my Tactician and the ArchSage himself. i often wonder if they planned it this way currently on the chapter where we recruit Wallace and i had to look him up. didnt want to spoil myself (will most likely read the support conversations,) but was surprised to learn about how involved he was in House Caelin's introductory story to the strife within the Lycian League: racist undertones? country bumpkin vs city slicker? who's hot vs who's not in a game of pick my units anyway? rightfully so, these are my emotional opinions on the choices Wallace makes..i confess i do not pick him up as a unit: but his timing is impeccable as always. some of these soldiers serve with the utmost distinction in deployment strategies we are simply thrown into, and have no reason to solve. so we rescue & recruit him in the chapters he introduces himself, of course, but we also want to know a bit more about this, IMHO, Wallace / Oswin archetype (an old man who still serves) - influenced by this post i once wrote i realize i'm assuming a lot here, but what if FE7 is the "choose your own Lord" archetype game. we all get excited upon Lord (units that are normally chosen for us) promotion, correct? Lord Eliwood receives a Lance & a Horse upon promoting..in my opinion, a reflection and a throwback to one of the strongest (main) Lords in the series: Sigurd from FE4. although they both chose to ride out in different ways, both results ended in war: one as a Rescue mission, the other as a Search party. Eliwood's "farm" after the game? i do not know yet, but hints have been given in certain ways already Wallace's "farm"? he leaves it to go BACK to war. and he remembers his promotional medal this time..but why? i think its the retirement Lord Hausen of Caelin would promise to those in service to their realm under war (should Lycia have gone to war with Sacae over the "elopement" of a Caelin Princess?) on the subject of elopement, my assumption is that Lord Hausen replied "this must mean she loves horses, so lets send some horses after her." knight commander vs sussy baka commander, right? another game of pick my units, but of course, on a micro scale. "we must protect my only kin" "your brother's too old" "you're the rightful heir (or is it..YOUR rightful heir) tee-hee~" all his confidants say, right so the main question here concerning this war within the Lycian League, is why do these men such as Wallace / Oswin never receive the Lord's promotion we always want for them? i believe Wallace's impeccable timing of promotion & recruitment within the tutorial is this promotion we always wanted for one of the regulars. therefore, Lord Hausen's never-ending mission for Wallace, from what i know of him: "i know you're here for the girl. im here for the cadre" as a soldier would or is it "im here for the princess. i've always been here for the princess. so say we all" as a prince would
  2. Doing reading on the history of language evolution and in modern history, there's been a lot of discussion about how many languages are in danger and/or have been getting revival movements. These seem to be mostly with indigenous populations, but it's also been a thing with Gaelic languages and such in Europe. Preserving a language seems like a nice thing and helps preserve a culture, but is languages dying off necessarily a bad thing? The world moving to fewer, more dominant languages definitely helps people communicate. You can speak in English with people all over the world, and French, Spanish, and Mandarin also serve as lingua francas. That would hardly be possible, if people two cities over each had their own unique language. Languages dying or being absorbed isn't a new thing, either. I remember reading somewhere that only a few centuries ago, only the area surrounding Paris spoke French as we know it today, and the rest of France spoke different dialects of French that were almost unintelligible, depending on how far apart they were. There was another anecdote I read, where in the middle ages, a man from London was visiting Kent, and thought they spoke French, because they spoke such a different version of English than him.
  3. Like the example in the topic title, there are multiple instances in Echoes where people feel the need to confirm something they said not five seconds earlier. As someone who studies language, this has piqued my interest, because I haven't seen or heard anything like it before I played Echoes. Does anyone know the reason why they do it? And if there is no special reason, is it just to give the Valentians some speech quirks of their own? If this is the wrong forum for this kind of post, I apologize.
  4. The game has been out in Japan for a month and in NA for a week, and the only languages available on the JP cartridge is Japanese and Simplified and Traditional Chinese. Why is English not an available option? Other games with international releases have all languages available and even automatically translate to the language of your native system. Why not Warriors? The game itself isn't even viewable on the eShop if you try to look at the software through the JP cartridge. While Nintendo may say that region-locking isn't a thing, in a way, they haven't changed at all. Does anyone have any insight or knowledge as to why this is or if this will be addressed any time soon?
