  1. While I'm not too shocked by all the fanservice the cringe is still real tho, it does detract from the tone that FE14 wants to do. Is it going to be a super serial story with unforgiving drama in a down to earth fantasy setting, or is it going to be super happy fun time where everyone gets blatantly sexualized without any artistic substance whatsoever? dem 3ds titties At least its on the 3ds so there isn't going to be incredibly awkward moments where parents/siblings walk into the room while I'm playing the game.

    This really sums up my thoughts exactly. The theme of the story and the whole waifu thing clash with eachother, which makes both parts feel like different games.

    ^ But quite frankly that is what Incest is, until you add the bloodlines into the equation as you might hurt the baby/mother but that is absent here. But then again social tabbo is a pretty big thing. And really rape and violence? For One you can commit rape and violence much easier Irl relatively speaking than taking part in incest and if you do it is likely to come under the rape part as well anyway.

    I get not wanting to S support the siblings i myself won't, but i can see other people Kaimui's going for it, We have had incest before in fire emblem and this one is not even technically incest. geez it has happened in the time period of FE why should it not be in the game, because you believe it to be morally wrong? If not what is the problem? that people want to S support them at all? You choose who you S support so you chose wether you think of them as sibilings or not. I looked thorugh the angles i can't find a reason for others not to do the pairing.

    The problem with the supposed incest in this game is that unlike Geneology, it isn't contextually bound. Outside of Cousin/Cousin, Incest was not actually condoned in Geneology. Arvis and Deirdre were unaware of their shared mother at their time of union, Seliph backed off of Julia when he found out she was his half sister, and Altenna/Arione is implied to be a secret affair. This game however just treats it as any other pairing. This is further made creepy in the fact that some of the Nohr sibling's lines in FE Amie still have them acknowledging you as their sibling despite being married to the Avatar. The siblings have and always will identify the Avatar as their sibling. Which makes it still seem incestuous despite the fact that they have no blood relations. I'd be fine with the Nohr sibling marriage if they didn't really refer to you as their sibling at least after marriage, but that obviously isn't the case.

  2. I doubt they're the ones from Awakening. Would be odd as it makes them canonically single and where are the others?

    Maybe they came from the same timeline as Morgan?

    Not!Cordelia though cannot have that as she's a child character.

    they're definitely the ones from Awakening's bad future. They reference going back in time and their Harvest Scramble conversation (Which is one of my favorites in that dlc pack). My theory on Not!Tharja and the others is that they are the ancestors of the characters from Awakening (Which opens up another can of worms).

  3. I didn't like them at first, but now I'm willing to give the mechanic a chance. It may be Hoshido exclusive due to the limited time to build supports. I think most of us have our expectations low, so there's more of a chance to be surprised.

  4. That's what I'm saying. Marriage in FE4 was limited to specific characters who were locked into each other meaning you had unique supports but only because they were the only ones who could marry eachother. there was no mixing and matching for the most part.

    But the pushed pairings made sense and felt that there was chemistry which most Awakening supports can't say. The forced pairings were only set in stone in order to further strengthen the story and raise tension during the final moments of the 1st generation. Fe4 1st gen takes place over 3-5 years so there is a lot of time for romance to bloom, so the relationships had more of an impact and was more heartbreaking when we see how most won't have a happy ending. But this is really just an argument of quality vs quantity which is completely opinionated.

  5. The only good thing that came of this for me is that other people will enjoy the game. I personally hate this as, unlike Awakening, this will and NOTHING to the narrative. Part of the narrative in Awakening is about time travelling to stop the destruction of the world by Grima. You could feasibly tie in marriage to what the game is centered around. But this makes no sense whatsoever as there is no point for there to be time travel or some half baked Outrealm nonsense. It honestly just seems arbitrary to put the mechanic in the game if only to pander to the fans of Awakening romance. Unless it is a bonus thing, it really contributes nothing to the whole "Your choice of allegiance will change history" thing.

  6. Thanks to Hollywood, exposing cleavage is no longer as big of a deal as it was before.

    Also, Frederick's penis being exposed makes no sense either.

    How does Orochi persuade captured units? I never saw that.

    1. Hollywood standards are different from real life standards

    2. Fredierick's penis isn't exposed, he is wearing pants and on a m mount

    3. It's implied that Orochi pleasures the captive in some way in order for him to join, it is unknown if she is simply doing something similar to the DQ8 puff puff scene or if she is straight up having sex with the captive.

  7. If only it were just a mere bulge. I'm not denying most men have that. Look at his official art again though. He's wearing very tight pants and he has a HUGE bulge. You can tell that he's either very well-endowed or.. well, you know what I mean by the second one. If guys walked around like that in real life, they'd get a lot of stares and photos taken. As a real life example, Jon Hamm had a lot of photos taken of his pants when he walked around like that. I won't post those photos here, but you can Google and see for yourself. I'm just asking for something to cover it up.

    I'm sure if someone walked around looking like Camilla, they would attract even more attention because she doesn't even make an effort to cover herself up.

    Oh btw Orochi's design is retarded since you can almost see her pubic region, why don't people talk about her?

    People don't complain about her as much because her design matches her character. From what we've seen, Orochi's supposed to be promiscuous as shown by her way of "persuading" captured units. Vaike's a borderline narcissist so it would kinda make sense for him to walk around like that . Camilla's design makes no sense because all we know about her is that she is doting to Kamui, Prefers the company of strong women, and being a maternal figure to her siblings. There is absolutely no reason for her to dress like this given what we know about her character. I'm sure most people wouldn't guess her personality based on her design alone.

  8. Precisely, which is why it is silly to think that Camilla's design is dumb for wyvern riders when she isn't the only one who is guilty of this problem.

    Funny enough, Cherche didn't get nearly as criticism much criticism over her outfit as Camilla does. The only reason Camilla really draws attention is because of her boobs, which actually have very little to do with the whole wyvern design problem.

    Just because Cherche's design is equally silly and counter intuitive to her class doesn't mean Camilla's design gets a free pass. I'm pretty sure that about every female Wyvern Rider in the series has armor on as the class in canon is supposed to be a tank. Camilla's design also loses further merit because both Belka and Crimson, the other two Wyvern Riders wear armor, which stays true to how the class has generally looked.

    You can't train to stop gravity lol. His balls are gonna smash into the back of his horse if he jumps, end of story.

    Also, it's not off topic. My argument is this: people complain excessively about Camilla's design, when they don't complain about equally stupid designs, like Frederick's, Vaike's, Cherche's and so on.

    Not to go even further off topic with the whole "Frederick's junk thing" but Camilla's Armor does not cover up her chest which is obviously where her heart is. Practically speaking most people are going to aim for the chest if it is exposed on a mounted enemy then the groin. Also the Frederick thing is obsolete because it isn't revealing in the way Camilla is. If Camilla wore something to cover her chest. but her chest was still prominent in her design, people wouldn't complain because she is still covered up while still keeping her voluptuous design. If Frederick didn't wear pants, I could see this being a fair point, but he does which makes this argument make no sense and is overall dumb as his armor is practical in a way where it would protect his vital areas.

  9. I see what people are upset about, but what I am confused about is how people jump to people saying male Kamui is featured more prominently in the recent Famitsu issue is sexist when there could be so many other variables that could answer a simple question. These could be, and are not limited to:

    1. There is already a female lead

    For me, this was the first conclusion I came up with. Aqua, the mysterious songstress, has arguably appeared in more FE:IF media than any other character so far. It has been shown and speculated that she will be a central character to the plot and will get ample amounts of screen time. The developers may have chose to represent M!Kamui just to have the frequently used Male/Female leads. To me, this makes sense as Aqua will be a major character regardless of Kamui's gender.

    2. It was convenient to use the snapshots they had.

    Face it, most people would probably used pre-made gameplay photos for the public just because it is convenient and already of sufficient quality. As others have pointed out, it would be silly and arbitrary to take new snapshots of F!Kamui in the same, already made scenarios just because she wasn't shown prominently in the latest Famitsu.

    3. F!Kamui is associated with Nohr.

    Female Kamui is probably going to show up more often when the Nohr route gets more coverage, based on the box-arts. If I'm wrong about this then whatever; it means that one of the Kamuis would have to get the shaft and I kind of suspect that others wouldn't care too if F!Kamui was the one in the spotlight.

    ^ This basically sums up another reason which makes perfect sense. In the Pokemon games, which the two routes have been compared to, the two default characters you can choose are generally associated with each version (X with Calem, Y with Serena and so on). FE:IF has already done this with both genders being shown on one of the two box arts. We may see more of F!Kamui soon if we get a new leak that focuses on the Nohr route and characters.

  10. I think that they're trying to simplify the Hoshido route a little TOO much compared to the Nohr route. It's pretty obvious now that Hoshido is supposed to be like
    Awakening at this point which is fine, but what I don't like is how it seems that Nohr is the more complex deep challenging version.

    For example,​ Hoshido, as of now, has a more simple story and more free roam gameplay Whereas Nohr has promised more complex plot and characters, limited resources, harder difficulty, and varied level objectives. Comparing the two so far, it would seem that what they are doing is trying to appease both new and old players. But I don't think that having a more simple game is the way to go for new fans. It's fine to keep things from Awakening, but don't just make it easy and more tame than what Nohr has.

    My biggest problem however, is the separation between the moral and gameplay choice. There are already some people that think that a moral choice shouldn't be which version you buy, but my personal decision is cut between the gameplay and choice. The game from what we know is about the Choices you make (I mean the title of the game is a rhetorical question) and I'm fine with that. I am on team Hoshido because I like the designs better and the thought of helping your birthland. But I prefer the gameplay route of Nohr and the promise of a challenge and more variety with the level design. I' ll probably end up getting both to experience both games. But my main point is that if IS wants to make a game with more drastic choices, that's fine. But they should at least both have equally complex stories and similar difficulty choices.

  11. I don't feel that what IS is doing is underhanded at all really. While I can see where people are coming from. The two games apparently play differently as Nohr has more limited resources and Hoshido is more like Sacred Stones and Awakening. If there really just trying to stay faithful to their older demographic while still trying to please the new fans and/or let them try out a recent FE similar to the classics that is fine. Sure some feel that this could be a difficulty option, I agree with Ownagepuffs that it was a better move to make two games on a system more people have than on a new system that chances are, not many people have due to virtually no new software as of now.

    But it's not Pokemon.

    This could be said of MANY franchises that do two versions or DLC in a similar way.

  12. "I was able to save many lives... But in the end, I couldn't save myself..."

    A Heal Staff broke!

    Noooo! Reset! RESET!!!

    Silver Sword "I guess I only saw... the silver lining"

    But seriously, if this whole unbreakable weapon idea is true, how will this affect Nohr path's whole limited resources idea?

  13. And you are using that statement as an excuse for your worshipping a simple entertainment, as well as justifying your anger and feeling insulted by my harmless opinion.

    "Ignorance is not an excuse" is really a laughable and immature statement. A patient come in with a broken leg and doctor refuses to treat him and say "Ignorance is not an excuse." If the punk knows, how would doctor get paid.

    You really know nothing about how "ignorance" truly works so don't use it on me because it only tells me who is truly the ignorant one.

    Edit: can't delete the post but oh well. Appologize, I get "excited" seeing people use the word ignorance. The use of that word usually show signs of hypocrisy which I do not tolerate.

    He's saying don't try to acquianted something if not well acquainted with the source material.
