Anyone else having issue with the download? It pops open the download page and then closes immediately without starting the download. Don't think it's my adblocker as I disabled it and tried again.

Been awhile missed you all :) Tuesday eh? So, we're all pretty much assuming we'll get Fire Emblem news at e3 since the last direct. And I'm onboard because you know, they kinda HAVE to reveal it now. Otherwise, everything else at e3 will 100% overshadow it and it'll be Radiant Dawn all over again. Now, here's my addition to the topic at hand... What if FE16 isn't the only FE game that will be announced this Tuesday?
-
And what would that be...? A medieval fantasy with dragons and magic combined with... A medieval fantasy with dragons and magic? xD The only difference would be open world RPG and SRPG... At that point making a open world FE game is basically the same thing as a Elder Scrolls game. It would have to be extremely well done to feel like a different game if the studios were to make a joint effort.

^That's true, you have a point there.

Tone what down? I wasn't disrespectful towards anyone, didn't use abusive language, I outlined Nintendo's current strategy (by my view) and criticized it without using profanity, so tone down the disappointment? Well, I said my piece and left. So forgive me for not understanding what you mean by that. Anyway, as for FE16 I don't believe there's another good opportunity for Nintendo to announce FE16 until E3 or after. If it's announced before E3, it'll mostly be overshadowed by Smash. If it's announced at E3... it'll be overshadowed by Smash, Metroid, etc. After E3 well, the same holds true. They've missed their ideal time to announce it, and the lack of marketing has been known to hurt FE in the past. I'm personally a little nervous about FE's sales, a Fall-Winter release usually doesn't go over too well for FE titles.

Coming back here to read all the new "leaks" is fun and all, but I don't think my patience can take it anymore. Gonna go freeze myself, someone thaw me out when it releases.

There was 0 things of interest for me in this Direct, I guess a little surprised smash is coming in 2018 and not next year. Nintendo honestly isn't capitalizing on anything. They will not sell their 20 million units like this mark my words. Their q3+4 has to be absolutely hopping with big name titles if they expect to hit that goal. Their marketing right now is absolute trash. Here's DLC for advance purchase, here's a bunch of indie games, here's a bunch of Amiibos for non original nintendo series. And here's some ports. kthx bye

I enjoyed the new mechanics it introduced, and as long as we're not talking about the story... it was a good game xD Story was just atrocious imo
-
Eh, don't be so negative. It's the first FE game on a home console since Tellius games, I have a feeling IS and Nintendo will both want to go for something big for this game. Now, we might not see a lot of content in this direct, but give it a proper chance before condemning it to Fates level of bad immediately.
-
Heh. If Nintendo chooses not to showcase FE16 tomorrow, FE fans could create a new ocean with the amount of salt and tears that will be unleashed.
-
The word Elegy is of Greek origin if that means anything. Maybe they'll tie in Greek Mythology. They've made many references to Norse Mythology in many many FE games so it wouldn't be a surprise.
-
Thank you very much :P Your first sentence has a possibility of being true. But then, everything is theoretically possible eh?
-
I obviously had insider knowledge. Or... it was a lucky guess. The world may never know. <3
-
Ahem. Just wanted to remind you all, that I called it first, nearly a month ago. :) where's my cookie?

I'll just say, these are medieval fantasy games. How many females were well known in the middle ages for being warriors...? I can only think of Joan of Arc. How many of those female warriors were leaders of an army even? Much less a kingdom, I don't know of any at all of the top of my head (if there is one, please link me to where I can read about it, I'd love to read about her.) Now this is a fantasy game of course, so I absolutely have no issue with a female getting a leading role through the entirety of the game. Lyn's spotlight arc at the beginning of FE7 was really well done. The biggest problem is.. Getting IS to write a really amazing and fleshed out female character and not going the fanservice route. That would be a nightmare for IS, to finally give a female complete leadership in a game, and turning it into a Camilla, Tharja, Charlotte. My point being, it's seeming IS wants to stick fairly close to societal rankings of the medieval times, while still giving female representation in combat. It's hard to find a balance of historical accuracy (which historical accuracy alone does not make a company sexist/racist like KC Deliverance got accused of for not having any african americans in bohemia. That's not to say they're exempt from it but that alone does not make it racist or sexist IMO) and appeasing the consumer.
-
Agreed, unless they completely turned it into an RPG with 3D models constantly moving around or turned the entire game into an Echoes style dungeon they won't be needing an brand new engine. That said, I doubt they are using the exact same version of their previous engine, especially since it's on a new console. They'll have made some upgrades and changes to it (but that's an obvious statement.)
-
I read the script! The Fire Emblem will be 5 "Infinity" stones placed on a Gauntlet this time instead of a shield... Hm. Where have I heard this before?
-
We'll be getting something on FE switch the second week of March.

Do you think full voice acting should return?
TwinBlade replied to John Denver Fan's topic in Fire Emblem: Three Houses
I loved FE for its well versed and fleshed out characters, and with the emotion that's able to be added in to the characters through voice acting is amazing. I don't think I could go back to the old games style. I can still enjoy them for what they are but the voice acting is so damn nice to hear. -
I'm a patient guy, so I can only assume you misunderstood me, or I may not have made myself clear, so I'll hopefully clear things up. I am not angry or otherwise upset because the announcement wasn't when we thought it would be. I'm more directly annoyed with Nintendo for only releasing 3 Major titles in the first year. I don't consider ports and remakes, to be major titles. I have a collection of 50+ games on the 3ds, and I'm sure I bought at least 10 the first year it came out. I've only bought 3 thus far for the Switch. I'm disappointed there hasn't even been much marketing for major titles as of yet either. I'm not a fan of Kirby, but I know that's a major title for most. So that just leaves Yoshi, and Fire Emblem are games that we know about. Nothing is known about the next Metroid, or Pokemon, so I'm a bit irritated I really have zero things to look forward to yet. Imo Nintendo is not capitalizing effectively on the hype they've built around the Switch, and have thus far relied solely on 2 big titles, and a ass load of ports and indie games to drum up their sales. Not what I'd consider a good start to the year. Oh and, I'd highly recommend getting Horizon. Personally, it doesn't have an Ubisoft feel to it at all, and I've played all the AC games. That game had me absolutely captivated. In its story, its breathtaking views, its challenges. Everything about that game made me appreciate it. And it is absolutely my favorite ps4 game I've ever played.

FE will be released in the Fall at the latest. Very late Spring or Summer at the earliest.It has never been a holiday title IIRC. I am dying for news. Nintendo is really making me regret buying a Switch at launch, I still only have 3 games on it to date, FE Warriors, Zelda, and Odyssey. Haven't seen a single other title worth getting and it's really annoying me I've had the console for a year in March and have nothing to play on it. Actually starting to regret purchasing so soon, and that's not a good thing for the Switch. Ps4 gets me to buy 20ish games a year, and if Nintendo can't even manage to make me buy even a 4th of that... Not a good sign. They need to step it up this year. Switch is a fun console, great design, and satisfying to play, but we have very limited options. Not interested in ports, I've already played all those damn things, Nintendo can't expect to rely on ports to generate their console sales that they're expecting.
-
Didn't they discount the 2nd game if you bought it digitally for Fates? I can't remember but I thought that was the case. But yeah, spending $60 for two at once would suck.
-
He said the pirate leak was fake, but he didn't say the vampire leak is fake. He mentioned that he can't prove it's fake or real I believe. So it's still possible. Only time will tell. I'm leaning towards a Feb 2-8 Direct.
-
^That wasn't a direct. It was its own announcement. All mini's are accompanied by a full direct between 1-20 days (so far) after the mini. There's always a bunch of other announcements in between. We're still getting a direct. Maybe a bit later than that 20 day mark Nintendo has stuck to thus far if that February timetable turns out to be genuine.

If there wasn't a theory before there is one now. It's certainly valid as a theory. Not a bad one either I might add.
