[High Hopes for Harold]

Harold is eerily similar to Reb Brown's 'Captain America' character;

Never thought I'd see the day when someone else on the internet knows who Reb brown is JAKODA!!

[Character Designs]

I like nearly all of the designs. they feels so much more consistent in design compared to awakenings and the styles of each nation are great.

Elise's impossibly stupid hair can die in a fire though Can we trade her for Sakura plz

[Is Camillia supposed to be Aversa?]

There's not really a comparison to made here, Camilla is better in every way.

You're god damn right she is

[Is Camillia supposed to be Aversa?]

"Nohr's eldest daughter. She dotes on her younger brother/sister (the protagonist) to the point where she'd be more than willing to kill someone for their sake."

Think less "Evil Boob lady" and more "Overly protective big sister"

[Famitsu 14th May: Phoenix Mode and No More Weapon Uses]

Not at all worried about Phoenix mode, maybe it will easy enough that i can get my super casual friends to play fire emblem.

Weapon durability has got me somewhat worried though as it could be super broken or a pain in the ass

[How to fix FE13's terrible story.]

Personally i don't believe that the story sucks (it's nowhere near FF13 level of suckitude) it just suffers from some rushed pacing mid-way through and quite a few missed opportunity's, especially with valm's arc which should have been expanded upon and made walhart a much bigger threat.

personally i give the plot a 5/10, has good parts and is enjoyable but if you start to think about it a lot doesn't make sense and feels a bit rushed

[How many Streetpass Avatars have you recruited]

Currently i only have one legitimate streetpass Dark knight avatar (who had all stats capped). I'm starting to think almost nobody in Australia plays this game

Just wondering how many avatars everyone has at the moment

[How about them good ol' English voices, huh?]

I love all the voices of the characters in this game but i think that Gregor, Virion, sumia, Lucina and Chrom's were voices were perfect

I have no clue what the Japanese voices sound like nor do i intend to find out

Ladies, i have a pretty deep voice

[Features That Could Improve Awakening]

mercenary lucina

Make the Valm arc last a little longer (say about 2-3 maps) and build up Walhart and Yen'fay(?) a little bit more

Multi-freaking-player would be nice IS

[Astra vs luna vs sol]

Can't decide on which one is better, please give some advice/ opinions

[Create a skillset and caps for a Soldier -> Halberdier Class]

hopefully i didn't make the skills too OP

soldier skills

LVL 1 - Skillful - Plus 15 accuracy

LVL 10 - block - plus 3 defense when paired up

Halberdier skills

LVL 5 - Rally accuracy - + 50 accuracy for 1 turn

LVL 15 - long reach - All lance weapons can attack at 1-2 range but lose 50 hit

[Why are we waging war for the Emblem again? (SPOILERS)]

Emmeryn's sacrifice was pointless.

Let me explain: Chrom had two choices in that particular moment, hand over the Fire Emblem and spare Emmeryn's life, or sacrifice Emmeryn to keep the Fire Emblem. The best choice is clearly the first one, but because apparently Chrom can't make his own decisions, Emmeryn chooses the second choice for him.

So say Gangrel actually gets a hold of the Fire Emblem, then. What can he do with it? He'd need to get the other four gemstones, and those stones are being held by people who most likely wouldn't give them to him. He'd have to take over a shrine, overpower Tiki (a powerful Manakete and the daughter of Naga HERSELF), then wage war on THREE different nations in order to get the gemstones. And once he's gotten a hold of them? He still has the ritual.

Anyone else have anything about the game they noticed, or want to debate this theory? Come forth and discuss. :)

Emmeryns sacrifice gave enough of a distraction for chrom to escape and it helped the plegians get over their anger over the last exalt and end the war, it also helped that gangrel was a pretty bad king and had soldiers in his own army killled for trivial reasons.

Gangrel wanted the emblem as a way of stating his power and showing the Ylissians that he ment buissness and that he had beaten them, not for the awakening ritual

[The countdown on the site broke for me]

when i read the title i nearly shat bricks.

thanks for that -_-

[Mystery of the missing feet finally solved]

I still don't know why everyone is preoccupied with the feet, its barely noticeable

[Is it Possible That Walhart Might be Related to Zephiel?]

By the way, how is Anna a goddess?

She is the RNG goddess

[European website and demo]

just finished playing it in all difficulty's and this is all i got to say is I'm glad i pre-ordered this when they first announced it and lunatic can go to hell

[OST Cover Art]

O_O Lucina just keeps getting prettier every time i see her

[If you could change one thing about Awakening, what would it be?]

- online co-op and vs

- cavaliers and knights armor, their armor designs suck (everyone else is fine)

[How Old Are FE13 Players? Will you ever "Quit"?]

i'm 17 i don't intend to stop playing games ever. if anything I'd say my love for gaming has improved since i was young.

and no, i wasn't introduced to the series via smash bros but rather a certain LPer named Mageknight404 about 3 years ago

[Best Pairing: Chrom and Sumia]

For Chrom it's gotta be Sumia if MU doesn't already have her. otherwise its Maribelle or sully (TBH i don't care)

For Sumia my wife It's gotta be me MU

[USA DEMO UP!!!!]

One of the reasons though why Australia gets screwed over some is our extremely high costs to actually classify games. Apparently it's prohibitively high, and smaller companies will start to lose money if they release too many games, which is why bigger companies like Ubisoft or Square Enix take over for smaller entities like Atlus and publish their games here, as they've got the money to do it.

And this is why we pay ridiculously high prices for games here and have to wait longer than most other countries if we even get them anyway.

sort-of back on topic: what do you reckon awakening will be rated here? M?

[Awakening preview!]

Don't care about the voice track, but at least we know some name changes and difficulty names

[PAL Gold Edition?]

That's not the real gold edition, this is the real gold edition

[Nintendo Direct event tomorrow morning (Dec. 5)]

No idea what time zone PST is so I'll just check in tomorrow to see if there's any info on Awakening
