...That looks like Sharena from Heroes. o.O (the braid on her head is the same and the hair looks like it could be blonde too). But what would she be doing in this game? And as some kind of fire demon, no less?

It's not Sharena.

Spoiler

It's a character called Rinea (Something like that). She's Berkut's girlfriend/fiance/courtesan.

...Why would a character have a girlfriend that's a fire demon thing and clearly not human? This doesn't make sense to me and makes me doubt this. Not that I really thought it was Sharena either though. But I find it dumb that her design was copied here.

So, what's the deal with Conrad?

We know he's Celica's brother, but how exactly does that work?? He is a bastard child? And was he raised by Mycen as well? This opens up so many questions.

Would be nice, but at least we're not waiting almost a year like we had to do with Fates and Awakening.

I'm pretty sure what happens is poor Rinea is possessed and transformed into that monster of a thing, rather than being that already. Well, I'm pretty sure. Also, this is her design pre-fire demon thing:

Better than waiting nine months! Or forever like half of this franchise!

...Oh, now I see. Makes sense. But I still don't like the design much. She looks EXACTLY like Sharena to me, just with her hair dyed blue. her eyes a different color, and a different outfit. :/

That said, I would like it a bit more if it wasn't a carbon copy of my favorite female lord.

Spoiler

I doubt Mycen raised him as well. I mean there'd be no reason for him to cover his face in that mask if that were the case.

That said, I wonder what this means for Celica's character arc. I mean, she was led to believe she was the only surviving member of the Zofian royal family.

Actually, quick question, are the caps still all 40?

What?! A female Corrin, but no female Robin?! That is so lame and makes me upset. I prefer female Robin's design over the male... It's also just not fair to Robin in general.

At least now I know we get to play as the Amiibo units instead of them being green NPCs or something. Though I'd also like to know why they're ghostly-looking this time. That's just weird and kind of creepy, imo. Also, it makes me wonder if this time they don't have their own skills and such... Like Ike's Aether.

Okay, Lucina has a sword. My lance theory proved incorrect.

I just want to see their full artwork.

Somebody hacked them into a prologue chapter; everything's as the promotional material said.

I think Slayde's face is the real winner of this video.

Deathchaos has already said that s/he hacked the game to allow the characters to be playable

[Zapp Branniglenn]

No critical animations, but those unique battle themes are fire!

...Um? I'm confused here, what exactly are you saying?

And wow, that music for Ike really is The Devoted. Bleh.

deathchaos made them playable

like making Mikoto was in Fates

The person who posted the video didn't mention this. They should have. Because now I'm disappointed again. Why did IS go and completely butcher the Amiibo characters? Being able to recruit them and level them up and stuff in Fates is WAY better than this boring garbage, imo.

I don't care to use my Amiibo on this game anymore now, even for Ike. I'm not interested in seeing some weird ghost version of him appear as an NPC and that's it.

This game probably won't be a day 1 buy for me either anyway though. Maybe if it drops in price or goes on sale or something. It just isn't looking like anything spectacular to me so far.

Do the Regal Sword and Falcion have any skills?

Yes, amazing ones.

Sorry, it's taking a while to make the skill data readable.

[Anacybele]

Regal Sword? You mean Ike's early PoR weapon? It's making a return? That's kinda cool, actually.

...Well, unless it actually functions and looks entirely different, only sharing the name.

Take your time Vincent. Don;t work yourself into the ground, cause if you do how we gonna get all these leaks?

I am a nice person.

So the Valentian sword is still called Falchion? Seriously?
