????? Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 This is surprising. Didn't they use the Nintendo Dream for the popularity choices? Ogma was the 3rd ranked character from Shadow Dragon, and Navarre was no where near the top. Navarre was seen ranking higher on the CYL Heroes thing though but that was too recent... did that affect his chances so close to release? Is that even possible? Or was it the Mirage Sessions bump? I mean I believed Ogma offered more than Navarre on the field due to the possiblity of axes but... doesn't matter much at this point.

HK Motendra Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I still don't know where you're getting this from that Ogma was ranked 3rd (not that I discredit it, but I was always under the assumption it was Navarre that was over Ogma and have yet to see anything that would suggest otherwise) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbsoluteZer0Nova Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I agree with @Motendra I always figured the same, especially given Navarre is the character if last I checked (my memory of Shadow Dragon is bad) was the first enemy character that could be recruited in the series.

X-Naut Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 This isn't solely due to popularity, from what I've seen the only character who got in solely on popularity is Cordelia. And in a way Navarre is more iconic than Ogma in that he's the series' poster boy for recruitable enemy units, being the third overall and standing out more than the two (Darros and Castor) preceding him.

SageOfAnys Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Considering Navarre was the first edgy, dark, swordsman type of character and the one of the first recruitable enemies in FE, he symbolizes a lot. Although Ogma would've made more sense in terms of relationships due to Caeda, Navarre could still work considering Caeda is the one to recruit him.

ChibiToastExplosion Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Ogma can still be in as a hero that uses axes. I'd love that, actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, I see thank you for pointing out. He's so forgettable. Edit: Oh and even Castor too is available in the same chapter as a enemy unit that can be recruited.

Ogma also symbolizes a lot in the FE games: he's the first in an archetype of early-game usually-mercenary badasses that stay awesome throughout the game; arguably only getting better as they level up.

Interdimensional Observer Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Ogma was our first mercenary, and he actually has something of a connection to Navarre. I'd hope he makes it in. And before someone brings in Ike superseding Ogma in the mercenary role (and the floodgates have been opened with the Lyn surprise), let me just say that Lyn-Ryoma-Navarre make for 3 eastern swordfighter types, we have room for two mercs.

SavageVolug Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Navarre is an awesome unit and character but I still hope Ogma make it in as that would mean we have someone representing the mercenary class and would possibly get maybe Borst, Corst or Cord as well. Plus Ogma, Corst, Borst and Cord are some of the first units you get in the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alertcircuit Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 I was under the impression Navarre was more popular than Ogma? He's Sakurai's favorite character IIRC. Director of a different franchise, but my point is that Navarre seems pretty beloved as far as Shadow Dragon characters go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
