A topic for asking and answering questions about Skinship in Fire Emblem: Fates. If this topic has already been done and is still active, I can't find it. I'll ask the first question: What do the different background colors mean in the Skinships? Ex: Xander's background is dark blue, Lazward's is green, etc?

Optimist - When HP under 25%, negate the effect of Lethality and Counter. I tend to look at the bright side of things... #MostBrokenPersonalSkill2k16

#SexyCurtains4Fates2k16 I honestly don't think they'll censor anything (except language). Awakening's suggestive themes were "mild", but Fates' suggestive themes are....... suggestive. EDIT: Fixed spelling.

Oh my goodness, I hate it when people complain about things like that. I mean, obviously, it's a little hard for poor Camilla, because she's on a flying unit and wyverns bob up and down when flying, causing her chest to bounce and hurt, but other than that, Camilla is wearing armor that I actually really like (aside from the bottom, why is her underwear exposed???). It's actually very functional. Charlotte on the other hand, is going to be cut in half with an axe. I don't like her exposed midriff that much (her armor isn't protecting her abdomen at all), and the only reason I like it at all is because it might give her some more ability to move around (same with Rinka). But exposed cleavage is nothing to complain about in games, because 1) there's always some guy running around with half of or no shirt on (@ fighters and male dark mages), and 2) if a woman wants to flaunt her stuff, then by all means, let her. Sorry if I sound misinformed in any way. I am a guy, after all.

This is why I need the small MU build. When I married Nowi, it was with the tiny lil boy MU, but in Fates, the smaller male build was removed, so now I'll feel shameless marrying Midoriko (if I want to).

Yeah, marrying the children units is kinda disturbing but I gotta do it for Femui/Shara. They're most definitely doing to change this, I can't imagine it being unchanged in the localization. I was talking about the fact that on tumblr, the supports' mistranslation blew up into a huge crazy discussion about how Mamui was "curing her lesbianism". I don't personally think that it was the right thing to do at all, but it probably wasn't meant to be homophobic.

Yep! "Animated Blood" can also mean blood that isn't red, such as the Risen in Awakening exploding into purple smoke when they die, or the "blood" in some Zelda games, which (if I remember correctly) is also purple. I always knew that the game would be rated T. There's nothing in this game that would cause the game to be rated M. The ESRB doesn't think that teens are little kids, but they know that red, graphic blood would upset parents, which is why they gave AA5 an M rating. There's nothing in Fates that would upset parents of older teens. Nothing too explicit or graphic appears in the game, it's merely suggestive, hence the "Suggestive Themes" as opposed to Awakening's "Mild Suggestive Themes". Also, what's wrong with Soleil? We've confirmed that the entire "curing lesbianism" support thing with the male avatar was a mistranslation, right? People need to stop whining about how Fire Emblem is "dying" because of these new games. Sure, Awakening's story was kinda dumb, and Basilio's return (as well as Emmeryn's) were so annoying. However, we KNOW Fates doesn't let everyone live. We already know that some characters die, and that there's nothing we can do about it. You think that IS and Nintendo don't learn? Do you honestly think that they don't care about feedback from fans? They took what we said about Basilio and Emmeryn and made Fates so that we experience that sadness. They know now that we want to experience a full range of emotions while playing these games, and that's what they're giving us. EDIT: Added a little bit to the end to keep up with the current conversation.

I agree, it's a nice balance as opposed to the open butts of the female Cavalier/Paladin/Great Knight outfits. I'm so attracted to the default male enemy dark mage you have no idea.. Who Is He. Why is he so hot. These are the questions I need answered. I'm crying btw. Now I can't stop thinking about Odin's abs, as if I wasn't already thinking about them too much anyway. Hm, totally didn't think about that at all! I honestly have no idea what I'd prefer now.... The sorcerer outfits in Awakening were god-awful, with weird open crotches for the women's outfits... It's funny how an entire class tree is basically fanservice.
