  1. Say whaaaaat? Didn't expect that... Wonder what the setting will be.
  2. I mean, apart from Fuga and a bunch of support conversations, what is there? There's no new weaponry, no new classes, no new skills(apart from Fuga's personal), very few new antagonists or story characters in general, few new tracks, the story doesn't exactly go new places... It has new maps, but also a lot of reused ones... I think at the end of the day, Revelation does its job, which is giving the overarching story a definitive ending, and allowing players to use almost every character from Fates. But it accomplishes both in a very safe, basic manner, and not much beyond. It... yeah, it feels a bit lazy, to me anyway. And there is the possibility that it's the result of them trying and failing, but I don't know, I'm not seeing it.
  3. But that's the thing, it feels like Revelation was never ambitious. That it was meant to look that way, but not to be. I'm having a hard time believing that the plan ever was to make a great culmination to Fates, and that this largely soulless game was the result. There's just too little that's unique and interesting in it.
  4. To an extent, but I think greed and, as quite a few others have said, a lack of cohesiveness were the biggest problems. Revelation in particular doesn't feel ambitious at all to me, quite the opposite in fact. Conceptually, oh sure, but that makes the execution all the more lacking.
  5. Finn secretly works part-time in-between chapters to buy s-drinks he discretly feeds Leif when he's asleep. Incidentaly that is also what happens in Heroes probably
  6. Naaah, I'll be just fine. Nobody reads individual posts in these. You on the other hand, created a thread. That's serious stuff. door was open
  7. You will doom us all That is classified information.
  8. This is nonsense. You''ve got it all wrong. Us robots specifically don't pick the "undisclosed" option because of how suspicious it is.
  9. Ah, I've had that happen to me too! No roleplay involved at first though, I simply played a female character and they assumed. I went with it for some reason... That being said they only spoke spanish, and my spanish sucks. Still, it was funny.
  10. He's pretty limited until he learns excalibur, as fire slows him down a lot. And by the time he gets good combat, well you're not that far from killer bow archers and such, and mages' low mobility hinders what he can do then. ... that's what people typically bring up anyway. I agree he's not that bad, though if not for soldier it could be his worst option regardless.
  11. I mean I did it for both, so... Though Ignatius wasn't exactly lategame, more like chapter 20-ish. I don't exactly remember the details in either case. Shiro I can distinctly remember could survive one turn, perhaps with AI manipulation or some such. Yeah, I know. At worst you can check space by space too. But planning around with such inconsistent mobility is a nightmare.
  12. You don't, it's just really convoluted without them. Especially Shiro's. One I don't see anyone mentioning is Siegbert's paralogue. A truly broken map with infinite reinforcements of completely distinct unit types mixing with one another, with terrain you can't properly assess because of the way forest tiles are rendered. A shame too, because it's pretty beautiful. But yeah, the snow map takes it. It's just absurd how bad that one is.
  13. Complaining does work. We need to tell everyone.
  14. I always interpreted it as them more or less actively making Roy consistently mediocre throughout his various apparitions, and the Binding blade, being tied to him, suffering from it. Why would they do that? Well I'm not sure, but... he's mediocre to bad in Melee, in Awakening, in Sm4sh, and in Heroes. It doesn't feel like much of a coincidence, especially in the latter two where balancing was more of a focus. He's probably at his best in SoV, but they're all pretty bad there. Overall he's like this character they feel the need to aknowledge, but don't want to make good, it's really weird. I think him getting second place of the male bracket in CYL1 sort of took them by surprise however(it certainly surprised me), so they could treat him(and thus it) better in the future. Or not.
  15. They bring nothing to the game, essentially. Griffon rider also feels really out of place since as far as I know, Griffons have never existed in Archanea. Well obviously now they do, but barely, there's no lore to them or anything. Edit: I guess I spoke more in terms of importance than what you asked for, though. Well Chameleon has limitations, but having more of your best units cannot exactly be considered as bad I suppose. As for Griffon rider, there is an argument to be made that wyvern lord is superior in essentially every way, but taken for what it is, it still flies, so it's not bad. Taguel on the other hand is actually a terrible class, for what it's worth, due to its terrible bases and being limited to 1 range no matter what. No promotion bonuses either. The fact that Panne moves several tiers up when reclassed into wyvern rider with E-rank axes says a lot.
  16. Chameleon and Griffon rider are the only ones I dislike to the point where I don't want to see them in a FE game ever again. Unless they're reworked almost entirely. ... thinking about it, Taguel fits the bill as well.
  17. No antagonist art specifically, sorry(no Iago at all), though there is one double page dedicated to generic units of ~20 classes. What's on it is pretty small as a result. Can't say I'm finding any concept art for armor, though there is a little of that for weapons. A few pages are also dedicated to locations, but if memory serves well it's pre-release stuff, so you can find most of it on the internet without too much trouble; and no maps specifically. It's a neat booklet of good quality overall, there's just not that much unique/unseen stuff in it, so I wouldn't spend money if that's what you're interested in first and foremost.
  18. I'm a bit surprised at the amount of people saying they don't know these characters since they "didn't play Thracia", btw. I mean, it's no secret that many haven't played that game, I just thought the fact that they're also in Genealogy was common knowledge, especially in Fin's case.
  19. Well, my turn to not really care, but be genuinely glad for those that requested Morgan for so long. Plus that's not entirely true, I do like Morgan Edit: Gerome is a pretty surprising choice, btw. Didn't expect him in Heroes anytime soon. Aaaand I do have to admit I could have been a little bit less serene today had they not revealed Thracia yesterday. So I guess their strategy is working, on me anyway.
  20. As much as I'd hate to disappoint everyone(myself included) once more... I'm pretty much positive that we will.
  21. https://nintendoeverything.com/nintendo-direct-announced-for-march-8/#disqus_thread Finally...
  22. I understand the demand for a staff user, but if they're doing things well, Nanna should use swords. She's not a prominent staff user in Thracia, since she starts at E-rank(and that's a big deal in that game unless you arena abuse), with no personal staff to her name. The Earth sword, on the other hand, is among the best weapons in FE5, and only she can use it. Also as someone mentioned, she's one of the four units that can use the Blaggi sword, which, for all intents and purposes, is the Falchion of that game. So yeah. ... oh also yay Thracia's hereWHERE'S MAREETA.
  23. I mean, to be fair I can't say for sure how much this community would be accepting of more mature visuals. Perhaps you're right, and it would work out just fine. That being said, I'm pretty sure most people wanted skinship in out of principle, rather than because they thought it was a good feature. Beyond the creepy factor, and though we did lose quite a bit of characterization through its removal, it was also pretty redundant after a few times. I'd know, I imported BR We really might. I pretty much hang out in places where people complain the most, for... some reason. Also I was referring to the gameplay, though I've seen the plot being criticized quite a bit as well.
