    I'm hoping you can pick between going for the best ending (i.e. choosing to spare people and the Lords from all three houses) or a genocide route (killing every other major character)

    Undertale Emblem, Dimitri is sans confirmed. I doubt this will be a thing, it's not like Thracia where strategy was involved to spare certain characters. Most likely they refuse to surrender and you're forced to kill them, or some plot contrivance keeps them alive for the true villain.

  2. I don't think there's any saving male corrin. He looks stupid no matter how you customize him, and female body 1 isn't much better. But I did like the crazy afro she can get. I've always joked that because female corrin > male, it's reverse here, but to each their own.

    I would never have played F Robin (pigtails are a no-no for me)

    Are they pigtails? They've always looked weird.

    As for avoiding real leaks— I’m specifically looking for them, because I want a glimpse of those timeskip designs, lol.

    Quite literally all I need before release. Just gimme pls guys, leak that shit, I wanna drink!

  4. She looks so out of place and thrown in. I have a guess that the game originally didn't intend for her to be a thing (Byleth is closer to a dragon quest protagonist than an avatar) and the male version was intended to be the only one or primary focus. By the time they decided on including playable female byleth, they had to redo the animations and CGI.

    Might also explain why she's a bit more expressive during in-game model cutscenes.

    And M!Byleth has also been presented as the ”main” or ”true” self-insert protagonist. He definitely appears more often in trailers than F!Byleth. And his relationship with Edelgard got more emphasis than his relationship with other two lords, or the relationship between F!Byleth and Edelgard. In fact we seldom see F!Byleth in the trailer, and she is overshadowed by the M!Byleth in the promotion period.

    That worked so well for male Corrin, didn't it?

  6. Gender hardly has any bearing on that. All I care about is if Edelgard is likable. Plenty of lead males have been bad in fire emblem, like Shadow Dragon Marth, Roy, and the avatars. Granted, we've had bad female lords too. 

    Maybe I'm afraid we'll be stuck with another Azura. Though I doubt Edelgard will be remotely as uninteresting and stupid.

  7. Hearing rumors of no S supports aside from Byleth seems so weird. Character's like Lorentz and Sylvain have flirtatious characters that not having romance possible feels like a wasted opportunity, and makes Byleth's special case of romance stand out in a bad way. I'm not asking for a dating sim here, I just like romance in my stories. It's not the end of the world or anything, and for all I know it hasn't been verified (I'd appreciate it if someone did tho)

    None, apparently, lol.

    I mean reviewers looked at the support list, and Byleth's S ranks appear even though they're post timeskip, so I think it's wishful thinking to be hoping there's other S supports. I mean some couples even stop at B.

    Paired endings? That could be a possibility, but I'm not sure I'd like it, in a situation of no S ranks they would be predetermined, which takes away the whole "romance" experience.
    And I hope for no platonic/friendship endings, I always found them stupid, if two people are best friends good, but a paired ending is a bit much.

    Don't get me started on how much I hate the platonic endings in Sacred Stones. FordexEirika, CormagxTana, L'arachelxRennac, supports that have way more chemistry than their romantic ones, yet don't have romantic endings, it's pretty derp.

    Aside from potentially AshexAnnette and RaphaelxLeonie, nothing's set in stone and I'd like to read the supports first.

    It's looking like Hilda is the only one of the Golden Deer(other than Claude) that can't be stolen, as she's the only one that hasn't been explicitly shown to be recruitable, and each house seems to have one unit other than the lord that can't be poached. 

    Thanibombs leak heavily implied that Hilda has a crush on Claude. She's probably that route's Dedue and Hubert, loyal to the lord and not recruitable. But that's just my guess.

  10. Warlock Hubert has so much swag. NPC Jeralt confirms he's around for at least the school chapters. Also Casper's gauntlet special attack was only one hit even though gauntlets have a brave effect, so looks like they are prioritized. General Edelgard sounds fun. Nothing like a low move slow lord.

    Also I appreciate all these previews picking Black Eagles so I'm not too spoiled on the other houses I plan to start with.

    You aren't dumb for questioning what's being shown to you of a product before its release.  So many others have unwittingly supported bad business practices by throwing caution to the wind and throwing their money at products of subpar quality without even hearing about or seeing what the product is actually like.

    Nice pokemon jab

  12. Why does Byleth look pissed off when the guys are chatting to her? Maybe it's just her model, looks odd. 

    I think Dimitri sounds too deeply mellow compared to Christian who has a bit more high strung tone. But that's just what I gather from his Seliph.

    No I'm pretty sure that was in her twitter clip.

    These bios are literally the translated twitter bios anyway. I've read them enough to know Raphael loves work and hates lectures. For some reason, it's not showing the age difference part in Mercedes and as such, her bio is pretty short compared to the others.
