It seems that Fates had a lot of voice actors that are relatively new to the scene (although it may be that I'm just not as familiar with them).
Angela Marie Volpe (Ophelia/Velouria) seems to have Fates as her main role on behind the voice actors.
I'm getting the vibe that Fates (being a popular game) opened the doors for a lot of new and great actors, and I'm really hoping to see more of these actors in the future.
It was really exciting getting to here actors that I wasn't familiar with before the game.
What are your thoughts everyone?

Hi all,
Does anyone know the full lyrics to the Matthew Mercer version? I have trouble understanding it in-game. I've only found bits and pieces online like on reddit.

General with Draconic Hex was a lot of fun. Stick a general against an army so that they're all weakened to be defeated on the next turn. Went well with Wary Fighter
Really helpful in Nohr where enemies and bosses were really strong
Wary Fighter made them tough opponents on Nohr.
But, going back on topic, maybe negating critical hits on generals?

I think most of what makes a class are the mechanics for that class (stats and, to a lesser extent, skills since skills can be transferred when you switch classes).
Though, to your point, a lot of the uniqueness to a class is in the aesthetics which is fun to experience on a first-time run. In fact, one of the first things I noticed in Fates was how nice and fluid the class animations looked.
In short, good point. It may be a good addition, but available after a first-time game clear. There is an importance to presentation that I bet a lot of people appreciate.

For those who bought physical copies of every FE game, how did you go about doing it? I've bought a few off of eBay, but was wondering if people had recommendations.
Did anyone buy the FE5 Deluxe Edition or 2000 Cartridge? If so, was it worth it?
-
Woo, I get to meet Vincent! Sorry, I get kind've starstruck even online ^^
Yeah, this is especially true for characters with opposite body (head) types to the class (i.e. if Reyson or Lucius were Generals).
So it likely wouldn't be too much extra work? That's good.
That pick is funny and badass at the same time!

I'd like another lord that sorta follows Ike's footsteps and isn't a noble or royal. It makes for a more unique story right now instead of the usual prince/noble fights off invading country/bad guys and grows into a worthy king/queen.
Sure, there's still one country invading another even in PoR, but that's what war is. And an FE game isn't FE without some kind of war. But PoR is more about Ike's growth into someone who could look after his father's mercenary company and someone who could lead effectively. Helping and protecting Elincia was pretty much the big test for him.
I would also like a female lord who stands on her own for once that isn't an Avatar. No more of this sharing with a male or getting overshadowed by a male business.
Less blue hair too. more variety in colors, plz.
I made a female non-noble/royal lord with dark red hair for my fic for these reasons, pretty much. Her best stats are speed, magic, and resistance even though she starts out with only swords. However, her strength is still decent enough to where she wouldn't be total crap and her "ultimate" weapon is a magic lance that takes full advantage of that magic stat. Yes, she gains lances upon promotion.
Red hair magic lance sounds awesome. This is a refreshing change of pace in every way (red hair, lance, magic, excelling at resistance)!

Does anyone think that it would be sweet to have the option to select from a character's available battle models for aesthetic purposes (i.e. Corrin's class is a ninja, but with the battle model of a Nohr Prince/Princess)? Personally, I like the look of the Nohr Prince/Princess more than the promoted classes.
This would also be sweet because many units have unique full-body models for their base class. It would feel even more like you're playing as the character rather than the class
I realize this would mean having to make every weapon/item work with every model type though.
-
Yeah, I just finished Hidden Truths 2 about 5 min ago. It was pretty solid in terms of plot.
Off topic, but the gameplay was fun too. It was sweet powering up along the way. Odin with Quitoxic and Sol was nuts. I like using my own units more, but the chapters that give you set units are fun because you get to see what you can pull off with limited resources.
That's actually why I like Conquest and the older games. You have limited resources AND get to use your own units. So it's the best of both worlds.
-
Luckily birthright provides some breathing room with grinding
-
True, they could have really built on that by creating a character arc where Corrin comes to terms with those choices and learns from her/his mistakes (if there are any).
-
Oh okay, so the seed calculates the random number between 1 and 100 for each level. If the character is in a class where that pre-calculated number procs the growth rate, then they will gain the stat that number represents.
So if Corrin seeds a 50 at level 10 with a growth of 40, she won't get the level up because 50 is ABOVE the growth of 40.
But if she class changes to ninja where the growth is 55, she will get that level up because 50 is BELOW the growth of 55.

I agree, that's why I like Zephiel as a villain more than Hardin. Zephiel's actions were all his doing. On the contrary, Hardin was stoned the entire time.
It's much more interesting when villains' actions are a result of themselves (such as a personality trait) rather than being possessed by some "evil power". Makes the characters more realistic and believable.
This is especially true since people often have a reason for what they do. People typically don't go out of their way to negatively impact others because they enjoy it or for no reason.
It's not like someone wakes up and is like "I want the world to burn for no reason."
-
If they cut out some of the extras, would that speed up the process? For example, I don't think a Takumi figma really needs his clothes. Just ship him naked ^^
-
Thanks. So a seed contains all of the level-ups for a character already calculated? Am I understanding correctly?
-
Yeah, makes sense. Right now, it just shows her game artwork for the figma likely as a placeholder. They often show the gray sculpture first right? If that's the case, may be a bit. Glad that they announced it and finally made it real though ^^
I bet it comes with all 7 Yato forms. Good Smile seems to be great at capturing details as evidence by the Lucina figma's mask/hair options and Elise's heal staff/effects and pony.
-
Good to know. AmiAmi is great for buying figures because they usually offer a sizable discount. The interface takes some getting used to (such as editing payment/shipping info after a purchase if necessary), but the store is great for buying these types of things.
-
It's discounted to I 4640 on the link Kirie sent (AmiAmi)). Might be about $50-60 total including shipping and tax. The dollar and yen seem to be roughly equivalent right now.
$1 roughly equals 100 yen. A good way to estimate cost is to move the decimal 2 places to the left when converting yen to $ and 2 places to the right when converting $ to yen
The way AmiAmi works is you place an order, but they don't calculate shipping or charge you until they are ready to ship. You do still provide debit/credit card info though.
Once the item is ready, they email you asking for payment and provide a total cost (in yen I think).
You then have, I believe, 4 days to a week to make payment. Once you pay, they will ship your order.
Does that answer your question?
-
I've been pretty lucky as well, but I'm not familiar with data mining to see if there's a difference in the formula for lunatic. What is a "seeded" growth?
-
Thanks! Is there any word on the Kamui figma?
-
Yeah, that's what I what I meant. Make a rule that you can't skip everything with start so that it's more entertaining to watch
-
Would be nice to get unlimited exalt brands
Someday we'll get our army full of awakening-crit happiness
-
Definitely worth noting for Conquest Lunatic, thanks!
At least my Kamui is set for that run. Chapter 10 felt like Thracia deja vu on lunatic. It was tough enough on hard, but I barely kept everyone alive on the green line in lunatic. Felt equally cornered during Thracia Ch 14
Voice Acting and Other Dream Careers
in General
Posted · Edited by quasimopho13
Just out of curiousity, has anyone ever considered (or currently pursuing/already doing) a career in voice acting? I'm wondering about people's experiences. Also feel free to share your own dream jobs.
For me, it's always been a dream job that I will never likely act on (I'm terrible at it/don't have the heart for the volatile career. Though, I did acting growing up starting around age 9).
I read the book Voiceover Voice Actor by Yuri Lowenthal and Tara Platt. There was a lot of good stuff in there on what it takes to get into the field (making the $2,000 demo, auditioning ALOT, understanding voice acting terms, etc.)
Voice acting seems to have a lot of similarities with camera or theatre acting (a lot of deadication, willingness to put yourself on the line, and working other jobs until you can support yourself financially on acting).
There seem to be many differences too like conveying an entire character through a voice, having the script right in front of you and understanding how to record in a studio.
There seem to be a lot of trade-offs when pursuing the arts versus more stable careers (such as doing your ideal job vs financial stability in a steady job). If your dream job happens to be one that is stable, it seems you're set.
Though sometimes you can find stability in jobs that typically don't include this (Dee Baker did so with voice acting).
Seems you can find just as much fulfillment, even if you don't pursue a dream career though (through things like family and hobbies)
What are your thoughts? Have any of you considered this field or other dream jobs
