@Onestep Dang, I'm ashamed of myself. Can't wait to see who's the first person on the Internet to romance those sweeties. Also, I'm wondering if the plague doctor is from the same group. It would make sense since they're all fully masked. The Reaper Knight really reminds me of the Fiends from Echoes as well.

Heh, those are some pretty villainous characters alright. Here's my mini-analysis: https://serenesforest.net/2019/05/28/three-houses-famitsu-preview-scary-villains-activities-battle-system/ I think the only important tidbit (for me) is Ferdinand and Bernadetta not having crests from the Ten Greats, mentioned by @ayahitaisyou. But they already said that crests were bestowed to heroes and saints--and we only have 10 heroes (plus Seiros) and 21 crests. So there need to be 10 more non-heroes.

The status screen isn't really interesting for non fans so I wouldn't be surprised if they're holding back. They need a screen to show all the skills and available crest during battle. So I'm pretty sure it still exists. The other possibility is that the status screen reveals too much knowledge for us right now. Maybe the crests are arranged like the mural, which would totally evoke the holy blood from Genealogy.

It's hard to tell. A lot of the screenshots generally show the characters near their base level with their main proficient weapons, but they do like to swap out weapons from time to time. Although, most of the time, they give them weapons that make sense for their progression. Like Caspar having gauntlets and axes (which fits with the Fighter and Brawler classes). In any case, bow does make sense for Mercedes if she's going for a more support role and the gang is lacking a bow wielder otherwise. They're also lacking a Faith wielder, but pretty much any of the 8 could be wielding it out of sight, especially since they're all Commoners/Nobles who can wield magic.

It was hashed. They just forgot to do it for Dorothea through Hilda. I was hoping they'd continue to forget! Actually, I am wondering if the website images going down briefly on Monday was because they didn't hash Hannemann's filename at first and blanked the file calling all the images to fix it. Sadly there's no way to prove it though and it was probably just a mistake. Heh, I should know better than to trust my own memory xD

Yeah, I hate to sound like a broken record, but the reveals have started to follow a set schedule. So Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday as mentioned above. Sunday isn't included as that was part of the first week where they had a reveal for all 7 days. That said, it's not set in stone and things could always change. But at the very least, don't expect anything on Tuesdays, Thursdays or Sundays. Also, I don't think I mentioned it, but when Hanneman and Ferdinand were added to the site, their filenames no longer follow the HACP_ANVY_char##_01_R_ad-0 scheme that Dorothea, Felix and Hilda share. That's a shame as Hanneman's file number could have told us how many students there are in total--and that's probably why they changed it.

Requesting SoV voice files

I'll send you a PM. If anyone else wants the voice files, let me know. -
Reddit Leak Thread (POTENTIAL SPOILERS)
VincentASM replied to Crecentful's topic in Fire Emblem: Three Houses
I haven't really been following, but even though I am skeptical of the "leak", I don't think this is proof against or for it. Apparently, the user clarified what they meant before the Famitsu issue came out. Hubert is the only true retainer and the others either willingly serve their leader (Dedue) or are close friends (Lorenz and Hilda). Also, Lorenz and/or Hilda not being mentioned as retainers in their profiles doesn't mean they aren't retainers. But I guess if they were, it would have been a very good opportunity to mention it... Personally, I'm waiting for more info--like the names of unannounced characters--before I really shoot them down XD -
Reddit Leak Thread (POTENTIAL SPOILERS)
VincentASM replied to Crecentful's topic in Fire Emblem: Three Houses
To add to what was said, the current pattern is a student from each house on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Then someone who's not a student on Saturday. Right now, there aren't many non-students that we know of, so Saturday should be interesting regardless. -
Unless I hallucinated it, there's gonna be a Zelda mobile game. If they're doing a collaboration, it would probably be after that came out.

That's the Instructor Level. It's needed to boost your activity-based gauges. Also, the current season is "Emerald Rain", which apparently means "Spring Rain". That said, it's the 8th month (or is it the 10th?), which seems far from Spring. So maybe it means something else. Aha, "Rain on Young Leaves". EDIT The purple gauge is the Stroll Gauge. There's a third gauge, the Venture Gauge (for something fighting-related).

I'm half wondering if Hanneman is gonna be the secretly evil teacher like those ones in Harry Potter, but they can't be that obvious, right? Then again, they aren't really trying to hide Rhea's sinister side. Still, it could be reverse psychology, so I'll just sit back and see how it all goes... At the least, I feel like he has an "evil scientist" or maybe just "misguided genius" kind of side. When he lets slip that he wants an organic sample from the protagonist. I just dunno if they're playing it for comedy or playing it straight. He does seem genuinely knowledgeable and excited to share his knowledge about the crests though.

Thoughts on FE12
VincentASM replied to JimmyBeans's topic in Fire Emblem: Heroes of Light and Shadow
I was surprised in a good way as well. Unlike some, I enjoyed Shadow Dragon, but I acknowledged its shortcomings. So I entered with minimal expectations. New Mystery did a lot to help to fix things, although it was still based off the Shadow Dragon engine, so there was only so much they could do. As mentioned, they fixed the enemy variety so it wasn't the same as the SNES version. They also added a lot more characterisation thanks to the base system. Plus many new elements to make it feel like more than just a remake, such as the Avatar system, training grounds, etc. And the addition of the BSFE chapters was amazing and completely unexpected. I also think New Mystery handled the difficulty really well. I don't normally play FE on high difficulties, but for some crazy reason, I tried Lunatic. It took many resets, but I managed to clear it somehow. Never did I feel like the enemy was cheating, but boy did I need to up my game and play more aggressively than usual. That was before they added the Rainbow Potion as well... My fondness for the game was what made me help translate the game, once I realised Nintendo was gonna skip it in favour of Awakening. I think it's sad the game didn't get an official English translation, since it's well worth playing. But I know many fans were burned by Shadow Dragon and the DS was on its last legs (since the 3DS was already out and Awakening was announced by then xD).
