Yup. Honestly i also had a knee jerk reaction at first. Especially early on and until Hortensia's introduction, where she gave me the same vibes as I was like "Ok, it's gonna be like that lol" But then they kept going up after the Valley of the beginning. Especially when you go deeper into the Brodia vs. Elusia thing And Alear is GOAT tbh. And SPOILER 7 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: So what? Raphael existed too. So did Bernadetta and everyone loves that one. The character writing is not bad, they just get a bit less of it than the previous game, more in line with past FEs. But but you see Past FE bad and killed FE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrimpy -Limited Edition- Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Like, everyone here knows how much i love 3H and it's characters But do we really want every game to be just 3H's copy cat? Do we really have to introduce the whole cast at the beginning and ignoring what that means for the gameplay, or chore that was the monastery?

"oh the character in Engage only have gimmick compared to previous game, and they played it over and over." like 3H dont have the likes of bernadetta. im sure they just read the C support and thats it. and i dont find faults in recurring theme in supports, if its part of their nature that only makes it consistent. 5 hours ago, Acacia Sgt said: So, naturally, I got Alear's paired ending with Ivy. Interesting thing I read about the Japanese version of it: Hide contents Apparently it states that Elusia began worshipping the Divine Dragon. Granted, it'd be a given they'd at least stop worshipping Sombron considering what happened and all; but actually taking to worshipping Alear, the implication being due to how close their Queen became with them, is something that localization removed... for some reason. Then again... Treehouse... damn it, treehouse butchering script ever again. 20 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Friendly reminder that my first reaction to Engage was "Fire Emblem is dead." well, ive got to admit that im guilty of it too. i was in denial so hard i've gone full 180 to loved it so much lmao ----------------- but im still waiting for Emblem alt costume like in the Mural from the trailer.. especially that pants-less marth for that chad ancient roman style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, characters in general ks I believe the aspect of Engage people will look at more kindly as time goes on. I really don't see what's so wrong with this game's characters, and a lot of the "characters are one-dimensional" complaints feel more knee-jerk than other criticisms. Like, sure, Bunet exists. He's the one everyone is always bringing up as an example of this. So what? Raphael existed too. So did Bernadetta and everyone loves that one. The character writing is not bad, they just get a bit less of it than the previous game, more in line with past FEs. I'm only at... chapter 6, I think? following a LP, the chapter the Hiya Papaya girl joins, so I can hardly say if characters are gimmicks with an anime face or actually interesting. However, I would say that the game thus far certainly makes sure that you're very well aware of what the primary gimmicks are. The steward kids treat Alear like he's with the Backstreet Boys (well, BTS is probably more timely), I don't really have any impression of Alfred beyond "nice and polite" and "likes to talk about his muscles", Chloé likes fairytales, Jean is English... The first impression is honestly pretty similar to Fates's characters (and to what I remember Awakening to be). That's not to say that the characters are one-note, but they tend to be presented with one note played very loudly. I don't doubt that there's more about Framme and Clanne than OMG DIVINE DRAGON SQUEEEEEEEEEEE... but I'm not very compelled to look very hard for it when the SQUEEEEEEEEEEEing is virtually everything that I've seen of them this entire time.

ping Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 8 minutes ago, Shrimpy -Limited Edition- said: Any FE character by ch.6 is like that No, absolutely not. I'm not claiming that characters in other FE games are fully developed by chapter 6, but that Awakening, Fates, and now Engage (*) are a lot more in your face with their characters' quirks, and that even "more serious" characters are a lot more forthcoming with those quirks. I'm not talking characters that are all gimmick (like Arthur in Fates, or Treck or Ilyana before him), but characters that I assume are, well, actual characters, but whose dialogues still revolve around one or two gimmicks that are just there to be funny, endearing, or titilating - Peri being a murderous woman-child, Felicia's clumsiness, and Camilla's obsession with Corrin, to take three Fates examples. (*) I'm leaving out 3H because I still have neither played it nor watched somebody play it past the Catherine chapter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck, sometimes they scream the quirk with their art more than any modern character does Edited February 6 by Shrimpy -Limited Edition- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
