Out of curiosity, how many days until I get banned if I send you daily PM's with pictures of Lugh and Ray in my party? Edit: Wait, was it you or @eclipse who loved green haired cuties? >_<

You didn't say that, but I was more referring to the fact that you already knew you probably wouldn't give the game more than a 2 out of 5 because of that. I hope you get some likeable characters though, I'll twiddle my thumbs for you! :3

Oh, I really agree with you on that. I think it would be more 'fair' (subjective I guess) and would cater to more to more fans with that. I just don't agree and think it's fair to deduct that much points for it, when from what I've seen, the game has a lot to offer and people put a lot of work into them. I'd say give it a chance first and then decide if it's worth giving it a 2 out of 5 (or lower).

Is it time for the pitch forks yet? ---E

I actually quit Brave Exvius, partly because I didn't get a single rainbow unit in over 300 pulls, and because I couldn't clear the 'normal difficulty' of an event with almost max 5 star level characters which I've been training for a month, which I really didn't find new player friendly...

I generally get really unlucky in gacha games xD. Just remember that for every one good pull people will post here, probably 10 or more 'bad' pulls will have been before it which they won't report :3. I'm actually REALLY happy with the mechanic that will up your chance for higher star characters the less you get them ^^.

I think it was reported in another thread. It's 3% for 5 star heroes (as far as we know from the site that reported it). When you get to the summon page in the game, it has a button called 'appearance rate'. It's likely you can see the pull percentages there.

I'll probably do around 20-30 pulls when the game comes out. Is there anyone keeping/tracking stats/info's? Should I post screenshots of the ones I draw here?

I very, very highly doubt it. It would give new players who have friends that have been playing for a while a huge advantage over other starting people. That, and it's just not a good move for Nintendo to make, financially speaking. New players will spend less cash if you give the option to trade, I'm sure.

While I normally agree with that, I don't think it's very fair to give the game a 2/5 (at most) just because it doesn't have some of your favorite characters. They can't put in ~800 characters at the beginning, that's just too harsh of a investment seeing they need have voiceactors, artists, etcetera working on those. Even if they had your favorite characters, there would always be people who wouldn't have their favorites in with a base line-up of a hundred characters. Would I be a bit dissapointed to not see any Jugdral characters (at the very launch) in the game? Sure, but to deduct three out of five points for that...

I believe the summoning screen has a clickable sign that says 'appearance rate' or something similar. Tales of Link has that too and it shows the % chance of getting certain star characters (5% for 5 stars in that game). It might be the same here and the people who got their hands on the game pressed it.

I don't think there was. Maybe/probably tomorrow, when all the votes are accounted for. In other news, gamespot on FE Heroes: http://www.gamespot.com/gallery/10-things-we-learned-playing-the-new-fire-emblem-h/2900-1086/

Nice, thanks a lot! =D It seems we finally know that the A, B and C letters on the characters screen are for passive skills (which we thought already) which is nice to know. Both this reviewer and the GameExplain one seem to really have liked it so far :3.

Hmm, from what he said it was really generous, starting with 50 stamina and the beginning chapters only taking two. As level-ups generally reset your stamina, I'm pretty sure you won't run out of stamina anytime fast, atleast in the beginning. Same here xD! I sort of actually saw it as a super hero comic book style, which kinda suits him :3.

Eh? If it comes out Feb 2nd, 23.59 Japan time, how could it possibly come out on Februari 1st for you? xD

Overall, I tend to like a lot of 'underdogs' more than main characters aswell. Still, I wonder why you wouldn't like Lyn as much anymore. It's not Lyn's fault that she has fanboys you don't like ;_;. Hmm, I believe @BANRYU likes her (correct me if I'm wrong). She's not my favorite, but I quite like her and definitly don't hate her as much as I heard some people do here.

I can agree with you on this. Camilla is indeed taking it too far (though honestly, I don't care so much, I'll just shrug it off and bench her, but it does make me wonder what I'd be missing from her supports... In a way I feel superficial for doing this.), I don't mind Ike's looks whatsoever. This is personal however. As for Odin, I guess, as a showman, he uses whatever 'tools' he has to attract people :P. Ahaha, I don't think it's so much a matter of prudeness. I actually think she's revealing too much to be sexy, personally. Give me Nephenee instead, rawr.

Oh, I think Ike as a character is pretty good, especially in Path of Radiance. And in no way is Ike as bad as Camilla, but sexyness/looks in whatever way of shape will result in people liking certain characters. The line where it goes from acceptable to unacceptable is different for some people, that's all. :)

While mostly I agree, same could be said about some muscled men, which for some I have heard you sing praise about. That said, Camilla is taking it too far for my liking aswell.

Being a Soldier / Halberdier probably also helps. I remember people going nuts when the game was released that we got that class.

While true, they've also gotten twice as much exposure being in multiple games.... though I agree that probably doesn't give double the votes :c

The thing is, we don't know how many people voted for Donnel because of Etika, so we can't say he's no.10 on that list because of him. Donnel might have been no.11, 12 or not even on the list without his 'help', but we can't know for certain. Also, the people who voted for Donnel because of him might even like him. Some of them probably don't even care and just want to support Etika because they like him. Either way, there's nothing you can really do against it, so there's no point in worrying about it. A lot of people on this site are also advertising their favorites, we just don't have as big as an audience.

... Nintendo send the list out 10 hours ago, hmm... :thinking: I now wish for a million dollars! I'm secretly a member of Nintendo staff, you guys can pay me to 'influence' the charts... In all seriousness, I'm a tiny bit sad the older games seem to get no love. It's understandable I guess, but still ;_;.

Just so I know we're on the same page, you mean these hearts, right? http://imgur.com/a/O6ZX1 I believe these ones can be created by just pressing a unit and pressing the favorite option (or something similar). People do it so they don't accidentally delete / feed those characters.

Ahaha, if that truly is their favorite unit, I see no problem with it. But it's kinda advertising certain characters and I'm thinking the gap between those three and the rest will grow because of this. Maybe they should have done top 20?
