Wow, really? Cool! I can see that as a very vivid image in my head honestly! :3 I honestly doubt a sequel being a thing. As much as I am hyped for #FE and even if it is a good game, a sequel isn't happening (unless sales in the US are really good...which, while possible, I kinda doubt...unfortunately...*sigh*...). As for other crossovers......well, if they see potential and think people will like it, they'll give it a shot. While you may not do well in one place, you may do better and succeed in another! ;3

Well he couldn't just stroll in at any time because: 1.) The warp of his drains him (and it probably depends on distance). He said so himself when talking to Ashnard. 2.)He serves as Zelgius to Begnion and the Black Knight to Daein. It would be hard to do whatever he wants whenever he pleases, especially if he didn't want to be found out. 3.)The Medallion can affect him too if he touches it. And I'm pretty sure a quick get away would be hard with Greil around. 4.)Even if Mist had it, it doesn't mean she keeps the medallion with her. She does, but BK doesn't know that and it was a risk he probably couldn't take. 5.)I think he cared about his own goals before Ashnard's. If he really cared about the medallion so much, he would kill Ike and Mist no problem and take it. But he doesn't. Instead, he kinda toys with Ike until their final fight in PoR. ......you know what, I think RD just messed up some plot points that need more attention. ...*sigh*...It saddens me the more I think about this stuff (as truthful as it possibly may be)... :'(

The Blood pact was the only thing that made the war happen in the first place. Without it, there wouldn't be one since: 1.)No matter how racist Daein is against the Laguz, not everyone would want to fight again after losing a war, being under the foot of Begnion for 3 years, AND just after revolution. 2.)Both Pelleas and Micaiah would be against it and seeing how high Daein sees those two (especially Micaiah), it would be hard to just tell them "No". In my opinion, the Blood pact was a good idea on paper(and seemed quite effective as well) and was an interesting plot point, but it got messy when it came to execution and establishing certain rules. If it was more simplified (maybe) and had a better reason or more backstory to it (like everything else in the Tellius games), it wouldn't be so glaring. That and the Ashnard thing. It messes up what was established in PoR for Ashnard(besides, murdering the family outright sounds more like Ashnard than him cursing them, especially since in a Base conversation in PoR, Tanith tells you he's one of the best warriors in Daein. It doesn't sound right and makes Ashnard less menacing). I guess IS needed more backstory to make it more relevant, but it backfires. I'm pretty sure they could have either fine tuned this idea more or thought of something else (because considering how jerkish the Begnion Senators are, there are more possible ways like......threaten to act as Daein is part of the Laguz Alliance and wipe them out with full force if they wouldn't comply. They probably wouldn't since that's time and resources wasted, but Pelleas wouldn't probably think about that and seeing how Daein is recovering and it's pretty small compared to Daein AND the the Apostle being "sick" at the time, the Senators had almost all control over the army. It would be a very impressive bluff. Probably not a great idea, but it's an idea I had). Maybe working on the game more in-general would have helped(we could've had a really solid story and ACTUAL support conversations......sorry, still salty about that), who knows. Edit: Don't get me wrong, RD is still a great game, but this kinda holds it back a bit from being even better. Also, I dislike how Micaiah didn't really question this...or Pelleas for a good while until she got exhausted and Sothe had to threaten Pelleas about leaving with her before the beans were spilled. I know he's a good person and all (and building tension and and all that jazz), but it kinda seems quite questionable when considered (although, all the other characters in your army question it). At least Sothe was the voice of reason (and sense...mostly).

Fire Emblem Warriors? ...I'd buy that...without hesitation. Seriously, playing as Ike or Lyn or Hector, destroying hundreds of soldiers in minutes would be totally awesome (and quite honestly fitting considering how strong they are, especially by the end of their games')!Edit: Not to mention that they do that anyway in Fire Emblem as a whole(mowing down dozens of soldiers...in a war, so it works quite nicely). Ike in Radiant Dawn especially! :3

This game seem pretty interesting (gameplay and, surprisingly, plot wise)! I'll be definitely getting it...but I still need to get and play Triple Deluxe first though! :3

The game looks good and interesting to me. However...until I see more, I'm not gonna get too excited just yet... (just to be safe). Don't get me wrong though......I'm still happy for this, but I would like to see more before I get too excited for it. I have hopes for this game......DON'T FAIL ME COLOR SPLASH! PLEASE DON'T!!! PLEASE BE GOOD!!!

Finally! About time Nintendo! Now I know how long I have wait( and how long I have to get a Wii U...)! :3

......I just learned something from someone on Youtube about the new title for SMTXFE. T.okyo M.irage S.essions It's SMT backwards! Crafty Atlus, crafty. So it's still technically called SMTXFE, just kinda hidden...-ish (I guess). :3

May 20th?! Jeez Louise, why so that far off? What the heck do they change in that version?! I know it's 2 months, but still... Either way, I'm happy people FINALLY got a EU Fates release date! No Zelda Wii U or Pokemon Sun/Moon is a bit disaapointing, but hey, atleast we have Twilight Princess and Pokken Tournament to hold us over until then...maybe. :3 Also on Hyrule Warriors...so much Wind Waker love......I'm enjoying all of it(because I love Wind Waker)! Didn't expect Medli, but who cares, she's in the game and that's all that matters! :3

The direct was pretty good...well...minus the unsynced audio in some parts. I'm gonna speak about how I feel about what was showed in the direct (mostly anyway). So this will be looog! Starfox Zero looks pretty good. Not on my "Games I need to get" list, I may pick it up sometime in the future. Welp, that defense game finally comes back into the light and it's a Starfox Spin-off too! More updates to Splatoon? Alright, I'm not complaining! :3 Paper Mario Color Splash looks pretty cool, but until I see more, I'll try to not raise my hopes up too high (just to be safe). YES! SMTXFE GOT A RELEASE DATE!!! WOHOO!!! :3 Not sure the title is...that good(kinda a bit lame to me), but hey, the game is on it's way, so I'm happy! I was REALLY hoping the Hyrule Warriors Legend exclusives would be buyable DLC for the Wii U version, thank God it is because it's a lot more fair to Wii U owners. Also, MORE WIND WAKER LOOOVE AND I LOOOVE IT ALL!!! :3 SNES VC on the New3DS is pretty cool(still want the GBA VC Nintendo...but I'll take this too. Now...EarthBound on the go)! Lost Reavers......I got nothing. Never had too much interest in it. Not because it looks bad, but because it just doesn't appeal enough to me. I see how things go. Wow...Federation Force came out a bit bold in this didn't it? Until I play it, I'll withhold my judgement on the game. Looks alright though. Azure Striker 2?! Heck yeah!!! :3 Not one for Monster Hunter, but the game does look pretty good. What?! No! I still haven't play Kirby:Triple Deluxe and now another Kirby game is on the way! Dang it, dang it, DANG IT! The games looks fun and I want it, but...dang it, Triple Deluxe comes first for me...dang it... Edit: Also, appearently Kirby took a page out of Megaman X......it's fine with me because it look so cool! :3 Amiibo is Amiibo and it's looking pretty good. No word on the Smash amiibo though...oh well.. And...that about covers it for me(mostly). A pretty good direct that was quite meaty, something I'm happy for!Audio issues were a bit distracting(on my side anyway), but nothing too bad. ...and once again, the internet explodes with excitement. ;3

I always get so jittery before a Nintendo Direct starts! :3 Thank you God!

Pikmin 4, that was the other game I'm still waiting for! After Golden Sun 3, we NEED a Golden Sun 4! Besides, a 3DS Golden Sun would be SO epic (imagine what they could do)! If only we could get GBA games on the New 3DS, then that thing would sell like hotcakes(most likely anyway...or at least much more than it does now)!

Oh thank God, it's another Direct and it's after school! Honestly, all I really want is: 1.) The direct be longer than 5-10 minutes 2.)A EU Fates release date. I may live in Georgia and the game is already out here(...even though I have to wait to get it due to school circumstances dang cap and gown for graduation...), I just want those still waiting for the game release date to finally get one because...this crap is taking too long. 3.)Zelda and Paper Mario Wii U info (obviously) 4.)Roy, Corrin, and Cloud amiibo info (need to get on pre-ordering that before they become like the other FE amiibos and become $20+) 5.)(Probably won't happen) Nintendo somewhat adresses the issues that came with Fates (Special Edition, skinship issue, etc.). I've kinda gotten past that stuff (although the whole SE things still kinda stings), but it's more for the acknowledgement of it since they were issues that Nintendo never really fixed "Directly" (;3) ! 6.) (Another unlikely) Pokemon Sun and Moon stuff. Maybe they wanted the last (pokemon) direct to be more of a milestone and celebrate the 20th anniversary of pokemon...or not. Who knows? 7.)Pokken Tournament info 8.)...hmm...anything else I want or are interested in (any rpg or strategy game will do) and that'll make my wallet weep (the poor thing... why do cap and gowns cost so much ) ...That's off the top of my head. Maybe I'll think of something before the Direct tomorrow!

Welp, it doesn't hurt to give this a shot. I may win, I may not win. Either way, I'll get all 3 versions eventually. Also, after watching part one of Fates, Abdallah seems like a pretty alright fellow! :3

It was a nice nostalgia trip, but I was expecting a bit more from the game reveal (...dang leaks raised my expectations...). A bit disappointed. Still hyped for the game though! :3

Welcome to the Forest(Forums) my friend! Nice to see new faces! Feel free to show off your work...besides, it could be really good. And it may show me a thing or too (because my drawing skills still need much improvment)! Oh, and ask if you need help! :3

You know what...screw it...I may have had the possible news spoiled due to Youtube, but......POKEMON HYPE! :3 I'm surprised actually(I mean...I thought it would be 5 years after X & Y). I just hope there is more challenge in this upcoming game because honestly......X and Y (mainly X for me) was pretty dang easy! Make it kinda difficult like Gen.4! Also, waiting for my Gen. 4 remake still (guess Nintendo is waiting for the right moment...so that they can make it a great remake)! :3

Doesn't stop Youtube (and my sub. box) unfortunately......(Dang it GameXplain! Could've changed the thumbnail! Edit: and possibly the title too! Come on guys, be a bit more anonymous with this kind of stuff, please. >:-( ). Either way, who knows how this will turn out.

5 minutes, huh? I imagine that what is in this Pokemon Direct must not be a lot of infomation, but must be important enough for it to be in the direct at all. For example, for Smash 4, Lucina and Robin were revealed in a short video(I don't think it was a Direct though...) that was 5 or so minutes, so it's possible! I think it'll have info on 2 or maybe 3 things Pokemon related. If it's something about a main series game, than that will be the main focus, maybe some small info on Pokken Tournament (maybe another reveal), and if possible, something else. Either way......I'll be at school when it goes live(10AM...darn you school :'( )......gonna have to avoid the internet until I can watch in one of my periods later (if I can)!

The Ike X Elincia shipping felt quite strong in FE9. I mean, the game REALLY made you feel like they would end up together at the end and by FE10, it's a good friendship (and I don't think they talk to each other that much in FE10 either, only a few occasions). Nothing wrong with a strong friendship, but...it kinda dashed some hopes (......and...I kinda hoped too, 2'nd playthrough of PoR onward. I won't lie, Ike X Elincia seemed pretty cute are a while. Not sure about Greffory X Elincia though......weird...I never really talk openly about my liked pairings...) :3

This is the first time I'm getting a game at release AND it's Fire Emblem! I'm pretty anxious! If I can, I hope I can find a SE early on release day(a.k.a. tomorrow). If not, Conquest it is then!

To add on to what everyone else has said (because I kinda feel a bit lazy :3 ), both PoR and RD have really good stories (but it depends on one's preference of how much though, I love both...mostly). The most appearent for me is that I LOVE how everything comes back around! What I mean is that everything you learn about in the story you get backstory for it, even some supports (especially Soren's. I had to beat the game twice and fulfill some requirements that seemed pretty nuts, but it was worth it...for the most part). I guess that would classify as world build though. Not only that, but PoR got me to fall in love with this series too (I played FE7 and I think FE8 too beforehand, but they didn't really pull me in like FE9. Although Lyn did leave a big impression on my much younger self. I realized the awesomeness of Hector years later)! :3 Oh, and Part 4 of RD is alright in my book, but it does have hit-and-miss moments. Especially the very last cutscene with Ike and the goddess. I can kinda agree with this. I love Ike, I really do (heck, he's kinda my favorite main protagonist of the series with Micaiah, Hector, and Lyn really close behind him. And if she counts, Elincia too), but Micaiah kinda got pushed to the back in part 4......oh who am I kinding, she got thrown to the back in part 4! Yeah, she still has importance, but others really steal the limelight and that sucks because she's actually a pretty good character (that and she seems like she isn't really there until the game tells me it's her and when you beat the final boss and go to the "where are they now" sequence). It's saddening honestly. :'(

Kinda sad to not see music entries in the top 15 because I LOVED Fire Emblem Medley and Aqua Song's New Arrangement , but this was still quite the contest! The outcome of this was somewhat different from what I imagined (and some entires seemed to shine more near the end)! Either way, congrats to the winners and everyone who made it to the finals! This was fun and also a way for me to see how much room for improvement in my drawing skills. I drew my entry in about a week, but I still think I did pretty good in a short time span! You guys better watch out though, because I'll be back better than before next time...count on it!

Been on the sidelines for a bit, but now I would like to throw in my 25 cents. Just to say it now, I like if someone who's gonna review a game actually knows what they're talking about(they actually know about the series a bit in depth and know what kind of game it is) and make soild points on both sides (positive and negative). And I also kinda don't know how to feel about number ratings really, but I do like GameXplain's rating system. It seems a bit more personal and since I know what kind of guys are in GameXplain, they're words seem more reliable (either way, there will be bias when it comes to a review). I didn't see Gamespot's review of Conquest when it was uploaded yesterday, I watched GameXplain's first and IGN' s second (both being good. Which is nice, especially for IGN because they actually made another good review). Just watched it a couple minutes ago and...good lord...he actually does sound like he's whining. (Also, I looked at that video's comments......no mercy...that's all that needs to be said.) It kinda feels like the guy didn't know what he was getting into. Also, comparing the game to Birthright kinda feels like a cop out/excuse. Both versions are catered to certain FE audiences, Conquest for older fans and Birthright for newcomers (and for those for who may have started with Awakening). This is a fact that we've know since the game's announcement. While yes, it probably is a hard game and you can't grind, but that's shouldn't be a reason to decrease a game's score because it's kinda a selling point (and a fair, challenging one too). I'm gonna use an example I saw in the Youtube comments. DarkSouls and BloodBorne are hard games and you know that going in (I can't say how much since I've never played them, just watched them). You saying that it's bad because it's too hard and you can't get past it is probably because you aren't thinking about what you can do with what you have. There is a way to beat the challenge ahead of you, but you need to plan ahead. Now while those games and Fire Emblem are different genres, you do have to think about what you can do, how you approach the issue in front of you...carefully, and think one or two steps ahead. (If it helps, another example is checkers or, my personal favorite, Chinese Checkers :3 ) This is what makes me think he hasn't played the previous games. Guess grinding can kinda spoil you a bit! Also, in every Fire Emblem game (I'm sure of this), whenever you restart a chapter, the enemies stats are altered slightly (either lowered or raised by 1-2 points and some are the same). This way, you aren't stuck and facing the same problem everytime you retry a chapter (I think bosses may be excluded from this though).

Kinda late saying this. In this kind of situation, I would fight neither, buuuuuut......since I have only 2 choices as of right now, I'm going Nohr. They may not be your blood family and your "Father" doesn't really like you( and kinda wants you to go see your mother and father), I won't abandon them for that. Your siblings love and care for you like you were their blood brother/sister and treat you no different (well, minus the part about you being part dragon and all). Also, "revolutionizing a nation from the inside" is quite a interesting draw! .......Along with the game being like older Fire Emblem games... :3 And after all we've seen from the Nintendo Treehouse, I'm hoping we give Garon a beat down! Edit: I kinda made the decision of going the path of Nohr waaaaaay back around the time when this game was announced. Just wanted to add that! I knew Nohr was for me! Also, while what's Dead IS Dead, they aren't dead if I restart! :3 (...but seriously, resetting is kinda part of this series......unless you're one of those people who don't reset).
