Remember that in Forging Bonds, SP and Hero Merit earned in battle are doubled, so use this opportunity to train your most needed units. 

I hope you enjoy the new stories featured by these Heroes!

I really wish there was a way to buy older accessories with some sort of in game currency. As a newish player, I get jealous of all the sunglasses and cool hats I see everywhere. It's not fair 😎

The auto-equip thing gave LMarth (who I'm using as an Infantry Flashbot for my new Galeforce Raven) a white headband and now I keep wondering why I took Mia to these fights.

Overall very good as usual. Larcei and Shannon's get to show off a lot of sword users which was cool (really wish Soleil wasn't there though). Alfonse and Ced had some nice talks as did Altena and Fjorm.

I feel like Travant fans are being trolled though with Altena recounting how Travant killed Quan with Gungnir.

Is it me or does it seem a little bit lazy this time around? The first conversations of Larcei and Shannan are copy pasted and Ced's first conversation is pretty much him saying he's no hero and the conversation ending immediately. 

I had exactly the same impression. 

(Slight spoilers of Shannan's B conversation:)

Owains appearance was gold though.

It's still weird and rather boring and lazy to me. It's mostly a copy-paste of the same conversation.

It is lazy, that's for sure.

I guess it's to go with how lazily designed some Genealogy gen 2 characters are. I get that back then there were some graphic limitations, but honestly... Ares looks basically identical to Eldigan and Larcei just looks like Ayra cut her pretty hair off... This is one reason I just don't think I can ever get into Genealogy's second gen as characters. I have a harder time taking them seriously. I can appreciate that they exist for realistic reasons though, unlike a certain 3DS title's gen 2.

I mean that would be fine if the perspective change meant like in a book or something but that’s kinda hard to convey with static portraits and text.

If there's ever a remake then we'll probably see them become a lot better. After all we had Echoes taking a bunch of blank slates no one cared about and turning them into a great bunch of characters.

Might be cause not that much personality was really developed for most Genealogy characters.

I think you mean ''most gen 2 Genealogy characters''. With the first gen at least everyone has a clearly defined role and personalty. We know Azelle's a shy bastard boy, we know Tailtiu is a little ray of sunshine and that Lex is Hector for instance.

Yeah, that's certainly true.

Altena's conversation with Quan and Ethlyn was extremely satisfying, even without playing FE4-5. I really wish they had expanded on it or even involved Leif in some form. It was far too short. It's interactions like this that Forging Bonds should always consist of. I haven't gotten to Larcei's S conversation yet but I'll be really disappointed if Ayra doesn't show up. It's a serious wasted opportunity.
