I like what the others did with your thor~~~

now we're getting somewhere

Like I said on OT I'm willing to offer some support. I don't think I can make the time to host the whole event, but I can do a couple of presentations and maybe some co-commentating. (pssst give me the good ones okay?)

I suppose it's nice that you transformed your pain into joy and laughter for us but why does it feel so wrong

now do zerker Anatomy is wacky in places but it's supposed to be a design piece? If that's the case A+ you get a certificate for excellence at trim One thing is that the V-shape thing on the bracers breaks the pattern a little, I'd recommend you duplicate it elsewhere (like on knee guards or as buckles somewhere)

This new character set is great, I'd love to see their adventures. You need to enslave one of the hacking teams

I don't think it works like that. Those events still happened in the past for the children: it doesn't unhappen for them. In essence, their timeline is the real one, and the universe just reverted to an earlier state at the point they jumped with time continuing to flow forwards normally. Both futures exist, one after the other. Actually, it's stated somewhere that Grima followed Lucina back and tried to possess Robin before he was ready, which causes the amnesia. Unless this process destroyed that particular incarnation of Grima, I think this means there was two of them. Which means they have a sequel hook :T

Payne burns with just as much positive energy as her son, but tactfully keeps it veiled with sarcastic remarks and assertions of superiority. She may not remember her childhood, but the after-effects of Validar's parenting linger in her psyche. She had it rough, being groomed as she was for her purpose, but she learned much more from him than he expected; she was his intellectual equal by early adolescence, and almost refused to leave when her mother decided to escape. All that said, she cannot entirely suppress her enthusiasm: she expresses affection physically, by jumping on backs, punching shoulders and kissing cheeks. At the bottom of a tankard, she even starts pinching inappropriately. When preparing for a battle, Payne sets a dozen contingency plans in place before she issues her orders. This way, she can take point with the knowledge that her troops are prepared for anything and that she doesn't need to break off from the fighting to reorganise them. She restructured the Shepherds with a heirarchy of command and spends hours each day making sure her captains are up-to-date on the latest tactics and formations. She is extremely diligent when on the march and always insists that they double up on scouting patrols, deploy foraging parties and entrench the campsite in case of attack. Gregor often remarks that she is more like an old, grizzled general than a prodigous tactician, and that she is the true leader of the force - but never within Frederick's earshot. Secretly, Payne is extremely maternal - to a degree that is almost obsessive - and often daydreams about designing the perfect nursery, having family portraits painted and what her grandchildren might be like. Leaving Lucina to join the Shepherds on their last campaign was both terrifying and heartbreaking for her, and ultimately, the thought of leaving her without a mother was the hardest part of making the choice to sacrifice herself.

oh okay

In the Chapter 6 opening, Lucina announces that she is about to save Chrom's life and proceeds to dispatch an assassin. If Chrom was meant to die there, along with Emmeryn, then he never goes on to marry and Lucina is never born - meaning she can't come back to save him. So uh... that's a thing. Sorry if this is old news to everyone :~

I wanted to say over on the blog that this is my favourite EN plot so far (but it wouldn't let me sign in :<). The agents involved have clearly defined motives, and the reasons for which are complex and meaningful. There's good reason to root for either side of the conflict and this creates conflict within the player themself, adding to the engagement in a powerful way. I mean this is more-or-less true of the other tales, too, but feudal political drama gives me a raging boner

aw man everyone did lloyd and yeah all the entries are so amazing. I flat out can't handle the baby wyvern trainer haha EDIT: oh and here's the concept

radical

nvm lol it's been a while since I checked my heraldry why is there no delete button

I've been working on a completely new user interface since like 2009. There's even posts about it on this very page.

nah I just couldn't figure out how to make one. Going to try taking hi-def photos of some old paper and see if that'll do the trick

^

why did I expect the sport instead of the insect like people were outside your house crying 'SIX' and 'HOWSAT' at 2 in the morning

Lucina and Ike are sweet from a design perspective but Hector is the only one who ever actually interested me. Sigurd was alright, too, but in the end I felt he was too bland to deserve a vote.

the bottom* gift art looks incredible - if you think you can do better with some practice, that's definitely something I'd like to see :3

There's going to be a Codex you can access from the title screen - I hadn't considered the idea of accessing it mid-battle, but I can't really see why not. If not that, then from the overworld should be fine.

:3 I'm kind of on klok's side of the whole terrain data thing but is a thing. I'll try to make it as unobtrusive as possible in the UI concepts I guess.

Depends on your play style, really? She has a strong early-game due to full vantage, so if you capitalise on that she should be on more-or-less equal footing with most of her team up to the point where she joins forces with Tristan and Uther.

yes good

Oops I guess I'll just buy a copy like a regular shmuck once it goes on sale on steam
