From what's been revealed the only character that I would remove, and possibly replace with a another highly requested character, is Lucina because she's a clone of Chrom essentially. I wouldn't swap Frederick for Roy or Camilla for Lyn because they offer more to the game in terms of weapon diversity leading to more diverse and fun gameplay. Adding loads of characters ,that will essentially play the same, for the sake of representing the other games would ultimately make this game worse off.

You died from losing 8 sword characters... OK? Are people just not keeping up anymore? It was confirmed that the games being focused on were awakening, fates and SD.

I believe it was said before that you can change the dub. Not completely sure though. I'm glad to see Leo and Takumi confirmed, hopefully the voice acting improves for the actual game.

One small detail I've noticed in this gameplay video is that Robin's robes no longer stick to their legs and actually flows when they attack. A small improvement but a welcome one considering how awkward it looked beforehand now they look cooler.

I'm not seeing how this game is a mess.

The only thing we haven't seen is the musou at the end, that being said Robin still looks like a cool character to use. This video was shown in an earlier thread, it has more gameplay of Robin than gamexplain's.

I'm at 29k, might do another run by the end of today to get Clive. Team is 4* Berkut, M!Robin, Chrom and Soren. The only unit that is annoying to deal with is Mathilda because of TA on Soren being negated and Berkut being slaughtered if she initiates. I love the changes to the tempest trials, makes it so much more tolerable.

I've given mine r tomebreaker, bonfire and reposition. I'm not fond of b tomebreaker on him because of how nukey the typical blue mages are ,they will most likely break your breaker so then you don't double and kill on the counter.

I'm not hung up on the twins being sword users. Every Fe game has had at least one sword lord, so I see this as them following that trend. The twins both being sword users ,I would have to imagine, is for gameplay reasons. They probably don't want players to be gimped for liking one twin over the other.

Finally made it to the top 50 in one of these.

I would fully support Panne's inclusion. She'd be insane to play as.

A bit late but here's friend code for the robin supporters: 2851344183. Currently have distant counter chrom up

Cordelia is great ,kinda expected, news. Robin on the other hand is a mixed bag. I like Robin so I'm happy, however I hope she doesn't take up a character slot because judging by the screenshots she looks extremely similar to male robin.

Corrin's Japanese voice has never sat well with me. I don't think it suits her at all. The English version is miles better imo

Is the percentage swap between 3* and 4* permanent? I hope it is.

I can never understand some of these mage attacking poses. Leo's looks fine but Corrin and Elise look like they're about to fall over any second.

I think Lissa not being a serious fighter is the whole point. The war cleric in awakening was quite comical because of its animations, for example the critical animation had their axe getting stuck in the ground.

Robin and Lissa look extremely fun to play as, while Lucina is a bit disappointing by being really similar to Chrom. It makes sense for her character but I would of liked a bit more originality. I'm really liking the special character interactions and nods to the games, with Lissa teasing Frederick about pebbles and Chrom saying let's see who's the stronger half. The hype continues to build for this game.

As soon as I saw the trailer I knew I was picking this game up. Even with a restricted roster I believe the game will be a lot of fun and the gameplay has only helped to build my hype. I can see how people would enjoy playing with their favourite characters to more but for me even if Leo was replaced with someone like Reinhardt I would still enjoy the game. The gameplay has sold this game for me not it's roster. If the gameplay was rubbish then I wouldn't like the game or consider buying it even if my favourite characters were in it.

I admit you do have a point regarding the marriage comparison. I did consider that the only reason why Alm didn't lash out at her could be because of his feelings for her but I wrongly disregarded that when giving my opinion on the argument. I guess my biggest problem with what Celica said is that as a commoner Alm should stay out of the conflict which ,when hearing similar negative views of commoners from Fernand and Berkut, isn't the best look for character. Another thing is her anger at Alm for saying her father was a bad king. I know that he's dead but it looks hypocritical to dismiss him as your father in the beginning and then later have this desire to defend him for seemingly no reason.

Yeah Act 2 really made me not like Celica as much. Alm was making making logical arguments and Celica counters by hurling accusations responds...great job. The fact that Alm was talking to her in a polite manner also doesn't look good for her. In Act 3 she was passable. I'm at Act 4 now hopefully her character improves.

Welp. I just had a funny battle. The enemy team had an alm with no weapon equipped which raised some eyebrows. What makes it better is that Leo called him a 'contemptible fool' activating draconic aura and one shotting him

Yeah takumi is a bit forced, but have you played conquest lunatic? The guy clearly knows what he's doing XD

Slightly jealous of that horse emblem team. (Strategy emblem)

I have been pretty conservative so far, spending 50 flags when we have the multiplier. I will burn all of them if it looks like we'll might lose, failure is no option for Leo.
