Have fun with the game Rena, I really hope you enjoy it! Also best wishes for the filming too. I have no experience in that but I can only imagine how exhausting it is!

RETURN OF THE BOOB JOKES. Only took 5 pages for it to come back.

Just realized I never did this, ha ha... Castle Address: 18133-76326 65004-11779 Nohr Avatar Name: Cassia / Castle Name: Fort Anys NA Milk Topaz Uh, easy? I really don't know. I sort of tried sort of didn't

I think it's the head. It's 1/2 - 3/4 the size of a normal head and it's actually kind of scary. And the face just looks... derpy.

Forrest's and Kiragi's faces... oh god why. Also you do use your own units in battle? This leads to many questions. 99.99% sure that's actually a female Corrin there.

Nah don't worry about that dude. Nohr pretty much dominated the popularity polls in all regards, so we're getting a huge Nohr influx. Assuming Shigure and Midori were chosen because they were the most popular boy and girl avaliable in both routes, the Halloween one will have these characters for illustration: Leo, Xander, Camilla, Oboro, Jakob, and Azura

Well, Velouria didn't get one due to the extreme Nohr bias in the children popularity end results (Ophelia, Forrest, and Nina are Conquest-exclusive. Dwyer is in all. Birthright players would only get Dwyer's illustration). Selkie though? That one's up in the air.

This is why I have little faith in humanity... and fandoms. People need to learn to be more appreciative, jeez, and this is just an illustration anyway. They can easily go create their own if they wanted to, so they're complaining why..?

Ahhhh Shigure stop making me regret my no marrying children rule! you already do that enough in game! The kids look great! Also at least IS knows to include more characters in the CGs or else Birthright players would've been screwed over for images. Also full official art WHEN.

My family and I went to a store after dining out with friends to buy something really quick, so me and my brother went to the video game section to see if we liked anything. My brother did, so I was obligated to get one to. I saw Awakening on the shelf and had heard some good things about the game from reviewers, so that along with some interest in series after playing Melee and Brawl made me get it. Since then I've played FE7, FE8, and currently on FE14 doing all three routes. I try to avoid emulating while I can, so I'm hopefully waiting for a chance to purchase FE9, FE10, and FE11 on eShop, waiting to emulate FE12 after playing FE11, and waiting for the new translation patch for FE4 unless it already released, then damn I need to keep better track of things. FE5 is saved for last because I lack faith in my skills.

Will you marry me?

I god I love both of them to death why are you making me choose Elise, by a very small margin though. Normally in cases where I love both units, I tend to move towards weapon bias and design preference, but since both tomes AND bows are my favorite weapons and I love both their designs, well that leaves me in bit of a pickle. But in the end, I would probably say Elise though because she reminds me of some younger family friends I always enjoyed playing with when visiting. I myself am a very "tired" and socially awkward person, yet being around energetic, happy, playful characters like Elise is actually refreshing to me while I would probably just stand around awkwardly and look at my feet when around someone like Sakura. Not to mention she provides some lovely moments of humor in Conquest and her extreme dedication to her family seen in all three routes is something admirable. But I guess I could say the same thing could be said about Sakura's devotion to her nation though too...

I think my opinion echos the majority in this thread: As characters, I love a lot of them, but their implementation with the Babyrealm is absolutely terrible. I really do enjoy a lot of the children as characters like Shigure, Shiro, Midori, and Kiragi, but the fact that they are children have nothing to do with why I love them. They would've been just fine had they not been children, and they might have actually been better if they didn't have the defining characteristic of "children" tied to them since they actually would've had access to fitting supports that might've developed their character more like Forrest x Oboro. But at the same time, we have children like Nina and Kana created which were some of the blandest characters in the game. Heck, a majority of the really "bland" ones are children. At this point, I might have enjoyed children in a future game, but Fates left such a bad taste in my mouth regarding this mechanic that I'd rather not see them for the next 5 games or so.

The two people shown in the yukatas are likely Dwyer and Ophelia (Anna does love that blue dye, doesn't she...)

If anything, it's more likely we'll get special child/parent vs conversations since I'm willing to bet good money that all Gen 1 units will appear as enemies and not be only implied to be the parents like in Awakening. Also they absolutely need dialogue between Kana with his siblings, but considering how little in-game dialogue was changed to fit married couples, I'm not going to get my hopes to high.

Unfortunately it's probably so. The guy in the pirate outfit has many bits of puplish bits of clothing the same color as Xander's (he even has a purple sash across his chest, like a certain Paladin...), the build looks about right, and if you look really close at the face, you can see a distinct, single blond curl. If it's not Xander, I will eat my shoe at this point.

Calling it right now, sexy barmaid. With somehow even more cleavage than her normal armor. They might as well make her topless at that point.

This guy needs a chill pill. Honestly, I don't know how to feel about this. This looks a lot like Sticker Star and I'm very disappointed in that, but I won't judge this game.... yet.

Someone tell Thor this. Like, now.

[spoiler=...] I would agree with this if it weren't for the fact that children from both sides appear in this DLC... unless they're confirming that the enemy side also had access to a magical hyperbolic time chamber.

Honestly considering we're probably going to be playing with the actual children units instead, and there being the very, very, high probability that some of the enemies we will fight will be the dead parents.... yeah this new DLC will be depressing as all hell. At least we have the Scramble maps coming later to lighten up the mood ha ha...?

Looking at the images on the top of the site, we can see Kiragi with the Fujin Bow (Yep, Future Past v.2 is pretty much confirmed... time to prepare for the feels), what I assume is Dwyer in a yukata, and.. uh... I want to say Xander but really I have no clue. It would make more sense for a non-royal considering Xander already has an illustration but looking at the color, the sash, and the tiiiny bit of hair I see I'm 99.99% sure it's Xander.

I actually really enjoyed the DLC? I mean, it's a hell lot more fun to play than the Awakening one and requires an actual brain to play it. After all that skill grinding in Awakening which I'll never do again, I literally wanted to bang my head into a wall after 1 or 2 playthroughs of EXPonential growth, while I've played this one ~5 times already and I'm still not bored. Also I mostly play these maps for support grinding anyways, so it's also better than that front. I hated being able to only bring 6 people at a time in Awakening as supports would go at a crawl. Also some units would end up unnecessarily high leveled...

ACK. That chart was messed up? Sorry about that! I saw a correct version somewhere before. I guess there was an older, incorrect version that I found instead. I have yet to actually play the game yet, but I've heard dozens of good things about the siblings in general. They should be okay to use because as far as I'm concerned, they seem designed to not suck. Also I have a few questions of my own. I just got Conquest but haven't touched it yet and I have a few questions before I do: How viable would you guys say skills like Lunge and the "___ Blow" skills are? Are they good for players too or are they more skills designed for the AI to make your life a living hell? When you begin a game, can you lower the difficulty? Not from Classic -> Casual -> Phoenix, but Lunatic -> Hard -> Normal? Or do you have to start with a new file?

I'm not kidding when I say the only reason I'm marrying Silas on my main file is because I saw his background story with Corrin during E3 and immediately thought "that is both the cheesiest and cutest thing I've ever seen. I'm marrying him." Really I would mostly assume his popularity stems from that and the whole knight x princess relationship going on here which I guess is more popular here in the West. Also I guess if you don't plan on marrying a sibling, Silas is one of the most "fitting"? But why seriously why are Forrest and Saizou that low. Forrest and Saizou are too fabulous for that.
