Rinkah has a shot, if only because of how easy it would be to make an unique moverset for her, with her having fire "powers" and being the only primary club user in the series. And she's a warrior through and through. The big issue is that people generally dislike her.

Guess I remembered wrong, my bad. In any case, it would be pretty nice if they went for her actually, especially since Azura and Olivia are big characters in Heroes already.

Honestly, that sounds absolutely fine to me... And I'm also expecting characters to have several weapons like in Hyrule warriors, so the sword issue could be alleviated fairly easily. Maybe that won't happen though.

Isn't she super shy though? Not like that would stop them, but I still feel like characters like Sylvia or Lara make more sense as swordfighting dancers. Between Feena and Olivia though, eh, toss up.

I do feel that it is a bit unfair how if the devs had taken two minutes to name the continent, a lot of the worldbuilding complaints about Fates would potentially disappear. Not that it wasn't bad, but come on, Heroes doesn't introduce any town or location whatsoever...

I think Heroes' does have a name though... and the fact I have no idea what it is might be even worse than Fates' case. ... but does it actually...?

Heroes set a poor precedent as far as plots of crossovers for this series go though... Personally, I'm not expecting much sadly.

I kinda like how people have to answer in my place because I write so horribly slowly tonight. And in general. Though I guess that was the basic idea yes, thanks phineas81707. I feel that with how much love this series' past has been getting from IS lately, especially compared to how it's been since Awakening's release, it was natural to be hopeful. Hence why a clear announcement would have been better imo.

I feel like we could argue about this for a while. In any case, the fact is, they set people up for disappointment, as demonstrated by this thread and quite a few others. Or we're all idiots. Now to see if they're planning on redeeming themselves at E3 somehow...

The debut trailer could also have been interpreted as the game only having 5 playable characters. The fact of the matter is, we didn't know for sure.

In a different context this mostly wouldn't have. Though this could have been communicated much better in general. If you don't want to speak of dlc too early, which is probably wise, at least don't come up with silly excuses. Or be more upfront about it, we could have known about this much earlier. In any case, this is just reigniting the flames of conflicts this fandom's been fighting for years by now. Do they not care? Possibly...

I'm not going to write off this game just yet, especially with E3 around the corner and my Switch mostly being used to play Mark of the wolves of all games lately, but, man does this announcement suck. And while I do love to hate Awakening and Akaneia in general, my main problem here is that I was really hoping that they were past pretending two thirds of this series never existed. We have Cipher, Heroes, SoV, and all of these were steps in the right direction, so, why? I'm fully aware that dlc is happening and likely "fixing" this, but still that just feels like bad PR, especially with the swords excuse and all. Besides, I didn't see any newer fan complaining that they didn't recognize half of the characters in Heroes, and it doesn't feel like the other side specifically doesn't want Awakening/Fates characters... they just want to see equal representation. It's perfectly possible to please both crowds is what I'm saying here, to an extent anyway.

Wow, completely missed that one, that's a lot of helpful info. Thanks a lot:)

Okay, so before I go any further, I'd like to confirm some basic stuff, so if anybody feels like lending me a hand that'd be pretty nice:) Stats are Strength Magic Skill Speed Luck Constitution(?) Defense Resistance Move Is that correct? Also, as far as weapon stats go, I'm unsure about one of them: Might Accuracy Critical Range ??? Max uses Weight Otherwise, from what I can tell, accuracy seems to be your weapon's + (skill x 3), and crit is straight up skill, aka skill is looking good in this one, although you need a special skill to crit at all. Having a hard time figuring out evade... Not sure why the guard knights have lances twice in their equippable weapons, and so many skills to figure out... man. Oh and adept at speed x3% is looking gooood. Edit: Oh, the other lance rank is for ranged lances, that the cavalier cannot use. Okay.

Lara because.

Although the criticism progressively became a bit harsh for my tastes, and my overall opinion didn't really change all that much, this was still pretty enjoyable, and you made a lot of good points; looking forward to FE5. That being said, the above quotes bummed me out. I really wouldn't say reading this topic is a good way to experience FE4 as a game, and it's a shame if it ends up making people less motivated to try it out. But, eh.

Yes pretty much. That's where I bid you all goodbye then. Thanks for everything, all of you, I had a great time. Good luck, have fun, etcetera See you in a few years! Maybe.

You could have linked to the precise screenshot, it took me awhile to figure out what you were referring to(^_^') Is it still visible on that page even? http://serenesforest.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/MyCastle-050.jpg In any case, looking at the chest area... this could be a girl.

I'll go with the one I can customize the closest to my liking(so most likely female). I think I'll keep that character for the other side, because I really like the idea that it's the tale of one person making two different choices. Following that logic, I may do the same for the third path. I do plan to play as both genders, but realistically, it largely depends wether or not I'm burnt out with If after all that.

All of this was already showcased in a former Famitsu issue: / It was the third one I believe. It's about the lancer's class skills. Although admittedly all that text might have some relevant stuff in it.

That's... a bit rude, Kamui. Corrin. "Ok so you totally suck at your job, but hey, I still love you" Thanks, Kirokan:3

I was wondering about that. But considering they get an armorslayer, which is a sword and not a katana, on the Hoshido path, I'm inclined to believe there are no restrictions on who can equip what. Rather, basic Nohr weapons aren't available in Hoshido and vice versa, My Castle excluded. But you never know.

Well here we go. Note that there are quite a lot of pages with little to no new content in them.

Jakob and Felicia get normal, unpromoted xp, while Gunther doesn't. Considering the former two start with 6 move, have constant 1-2 range, debuff even with a support attack AND can heal, I'd be surprised if they didn't end up being fantastic units. Gunther on the other hand, is indeed looking very underwhelming. We'll see how it goes.

Actually this issue shows a lot of status screens that we didn't get to see before. Most notably, pretty much every unit from Nohr that isn't a royal is covered. Ryoma's stats are indeed quite high. His personal weapon's might doesn't seem that impressive though. Wonder if I should simply post them since they're on Perfectly nintendo...
