currently playing Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night after i completed Trails of Cold Steel 4 (with Platinum Trophy) i must say, this is probably the best metroidvania i've ever played and no, Castlevania 1 isn't above Bloodstained RotN simply because the former isn't a metroidvania

you see it's not exactly easy to create a healthy discussion with someone who's already sure to be right unless proven wrong, and even then said someone dismisses those proofs due to them being "stupid" and spreading misinformation, stating that "not all discussion is good discussion" because that's the problem i'm seeing in your arguments: not what you say, but what your mindset is while saying them also, since "not all discussion is good discussion", then let me ask you: "is yours good? do you think you're doing everything you can to make those discussions you decide to take on healthy and good? or is it always others' fault because all they always do is spreading misinformation and stupid arguments?"

not really interested about SDatBoL sales, i just don't want to support these limited time digital-only releases if it really does well and it leads to Genealogy and Thracia getting an english release as well, then i'll be happy

well basically my only hopes are that NISA announces Hajimari no Kiseki in english by the end of 2021, although that's probably just wishful thinking, and that Bravely Default 2 doesn't get delayed to death, i just want that game to come out oh, one last thing, i'd like to know FFXVI's release date, so that i know when to buy a PS5

i mean that's the whole point of criticizing, to show others those which you think are flaws, and discuss about them if you dismiss others' criticisms and label them as "nitpicks" simply because you don't agree with them, that's the moment the discussion dies

lmao that would be awesome, i'd like to use Helswath by the way, i never quite realized that adding a new female character in genealogy implies adding 4 new characters (2 children + 2 substitutes) as well

i'd like it to be as close to the original as possible (this includes not shrinking maps, not changing the story, not removing skills such as pursuit BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, NOT CHANGING MIRACLE'S EFFECT), but yeah there are some things i'd like to see as well, mainly supports and more extra dialogues i feel that new classes could potentially be cool, but i honestly don't know what they could add, FE4 already has many cool classes i also wouldn't really like to see new characters a la Berkut, Ferdinand and Faye, although i guess i wouldn't really hate a new Chalphy knight joining together with Noish and Alec, maybe female as long as she's not Cecil 2 one last thing, i don't want to see combat arts, battalions nor anything of the sort, just no yeah i know, i'm particularly strict about these things

i must say Sacred Stones FE7 was my first FE so it kinda has a special place in my heart, despite what people might say against it, and while i find Binding Blade extremely annoying sometimes, my diehard JRPG completionist can't but love the concept of having a "true ending" locked behind some extra chapters, and i honestly want another FE to have this feature

now this is some hardcore trolling anyway, trying to seriously participate to the discussion, i think it's every good writer's job to convey messages with his/her best writing capabilities, so i'm not really sure what part of Conquest's symbolism is supposed to be as brilliant as you're saying: the way i see it, either every good writer in the world is a genious, or, much more likely, Conquest isn't all that genius in its symbolism also, i could argue genius is something extremely subjective, even more so in internet discussions, where words are often misinterpreted and decontextualized

it might be a bit too vauge, but i really like when villains are just as right in what they're doing as the heroes, or when they're pursuing a goal that is perceived as the best one not just for them, but also for everyone else, so that i question whether i'm doing the right thing opposing them or not i also like villains who are evil for the sake of being evil, but in that case charisma and character design play a much bigger role for me

definitely Trails of Cold Steel IV, which I finished just 2 days ago granted, i still have to play FFVIIR and Persona 5R, but i honestly doubt I'll like them more than CSIV

this but if i really must choose, i'd say during the War of Heroes, simply because i want to see more of Rhea Rhea and Edelgard are basically the 2 main female characters, and sine 3H on its own is already Edelgard: The Game, it's only fair that Rhea gets her own game as well

i love katsuyoshi koya's, wasa sachiko's and senri kita's artstyles, but if i were to pick only one, i'd obviously go with senri kita

i'll be very concise in expressing my opinion on this: No, it doesn't, just like no other FE game does (aside from Ashera, thank you, @Florete, for the reminder) There are some good ideas (way higher stats compared to every other enemy in the same map, and more actions on the same turn, to name a few) which imo would be decent first steps in completely revamping how bosses work in Fire Emblem, but the execution imo is just as bad, if not worse, as other FE games, considering how frustrating some of 3H's bosses are

well, generally nothing stops me from consuming a product, not even the producers' controversial ideologies nor their crimes, if any sure, it depends on how i feel towards that particular product, but yeah, i'd say that if i want to have a good time with what i think is a good product, basically nothing "external" can stop me (aside from money, of course) what CAN stop me are my onw principles: 1) if possible, or if there's even the most remote chance it'll happen, i usually buy Switch ports of those (generally) PS4 games i'm interested in (that's why i gave up hope 2 days ago and bought Persona 5 Royal for PS4, and that's also why i'll buy KH Melody of Memory for Switch) 2) i tend not to purchase products of companies who lie or do something which in my eyes deserves no support (i'm trying to get a second-hand copy of Pokemon Shield just not to financially support TPCi, GameFreak and whoever decided those games should have been the way they ended up being) and... that's probably it

or rather, not everything you read online is or wants to be a discussion

tbh i think i'll never understand why people felt, and some still feel, that way, and as far as my experience goes, this is mostly a thing that affects the american fanbase, at least to this extent; don't know if it's a localization problem or whatever, just stating what i see anyway, about worldbuilding, i can think about many of my favorite games/comics with little to no worldbuilding because that isn't their focus (Super Mario games, Medaka Box, Inazuma Eleven, etc.), but not a single one of these works either is to be taken seriously or intends to make of worldbuilding its staple so yeah, worldbuilding is not a must, it all comes down to what purpose you find for it in your work Fire Emblem games are a completely different matter though, because they try to be good under every aspect (music, gameplay, characters, story and worldbuilding) and they expect players to take them seriously also yeah, i agree with whoever says that having little worldbuilding limits the story's potential

a general list for my most wanted lords/secondary lords would be Alm, Sigurd, Seliph, Ike, Elincia, Micaiah, Sothe and Rhea

yeah, "congiuntivo" is almost never used when speaking, and most italians can't even use and conjugate it properly by definition, Congiuntivo is used to express a subjective/unreal/not verified/hypothetical or irrelevant events ex. "Penso tu sia bravo a cucinare", "I think you're good at cooking" as you can see, in english there's no equivalent, and in this case, that of a personal opinion, you express it by using the present simple tense ex. "Spero tu riesca a partecipare", "I hope you'll be able to participate" to express this in english you need yet another tense, future simple in this case (which you can use in italian as well; "Spero che riuscirai a partecipare") "fossi" is "essere" in its first person and second person singular form of the congiuntivo imperfetto tense (but also the plural form of "fosso", "ditch") Congiuntivo Imperfetto expresses uncertain or hypothetical events Uncertainty ex. "Pensavo tu fossi in camera tua", "I thought you were in your room" Hypotheticality ex. "Se tu fossi qui, sarei felice", "If you were here, I'd be happy" so yeah, from an english speaker it can definitely be difficult to understand and to actually grasp how and when to use Congiuntivo... and for italians as well, no wonders many don't even bother using it usually italians use Presente and Imperfetto tenses instead of Congiuntivo Presente and Congiuntivo Imperfetto respectively, even though it's technically a mistake ex. "Penso tu sia bravo a cucinare" -> "Penso che sei bravo a cucinare" ex. "Spero tu riesca a partecipare"/"Spero che riuscirai a partecipare" -> "Spero che riesci a partecipare" ex. "Pensavo tu fossi in camera tua" -> "Pensavo che eri in camera tua" ex. "Se tu fossi qui, sarei felice" -> "Se tu eri qui, sarei felice" i hope i've been somewhat useful, and don't worry, not a single italian with a working brain would make fun of you for not knowing Congiuntivo, in fact you'd be more than excused

Elise Schwarzer, without a single doubt, and i honestly fail to understand how is it that FE Elise has so many fans forcing myself not to think about anything illegal

the banners i'd like to see happening the most are: Genealogy Gen 1: PoR: RD:

Fire Emblem) Arvis Fatal Fury/King of Fighters) Geese/Iori Final Fantasy) Kefka (i wouldn't like to see Sephiroth's Masamune getting shortened to a fourth of what it should normally be) Street Fighter) Cammy (sorry to all the good boys and girls who play Smash) Mother) Porky

honestly pleasantly surprised to see so many people learning italian, i didn't expect this at all, given how relatively useless it is compared to chinese, spanish and french definitely hope you italian learners don't get too turned off by its difficulty, which mostly lies in the many exceptions to basically every rule and in the many tenses good luck!

i really like languages, but i honestly never find enough time to study more of them as for how many languages i can speak, my native language is italian, then there's english, and i'm pretty much still a beginner with japanese i've also studied french for 5 years (3 years of middle school and first 2 years of high school), but i've basically never practiced it anymore after that, so i'm as rusty as can be there's also latin, but again, never practiced it after i graduated at high school, and we never practiced speaking anyway, only latin->italian translations and literature (very interesting though, i still have fond memories of plato's and seneca's texts)

i really love senri kita's works, but i also like yura a lot (i know, i might be in a minority) my overall favorite arts, though, would probably be Levin's, Shannan's, BIke's, Ashnard's, Jorge's and Loki's ones
