IS gave us Engage this year. It helped softened the not so great year 2023 was for me.

I think 2024 will be a good year for me though, but now IS will reverse it by releasing FE4 remake.

Happy New Years to you too Jotari.

Turn that frown upside down! Instead of giving up on resolutions, strap a bomb on yourself that blows up when you don't complete your daily grind towards your goals. THen get some beer. A lot of beer.

True! They just have to fix the maps, the mag length, the enemy layout, add quality over quantity (for enemies), the weapon balance, the holy weapons, the romance between Sigurd and forest lady he just met, the villages giving money to your healer that spent 50 turns to get there, the trade system, the difficulty the walking sim aspect, the 50 turn love point system, the invisible barrier "integration", the time consuming arena grind that doesn't scale to prioritize giving Sigurd even more money, marriages behind your back, resist temptation to add Reindhart, fix great shield emblem, fix most skills, give a Sigurd/Quan/Eldigan backstory without charging it as DLC, remove battle saves for DS save circles, not force in contrived lore for divine pulse, add more to its storytelling than villains monologuing what they already know every castle siege, NOT turning the castles into Somniels, add reclassing options, abandon the project and remake FE6 instead, add Cord into the game.

It's so easy! It'll be just like the original game! No one will have any problems with it! 

And then it's the same game, but people get mad over Oifey no longer being allowed to romance Patty. Merry fricken 2024.

Well, you see

They made the FE4 map and FE6 map in Engage not shit and actually fun. That gives a me a bit of hope they might fix the gameplay.

Just the gameplay tho. FE4's story problems are too big to fix in a remake lol

In spite of all the jokes I am going to make, I hope y'all do have a great New Year filled with the love of Christ.

Oh wow, that really would fix all the game's problems!

Re-making vs re-designing but they actually leaned more into the Kaga brainwashing fetish for Shadows of Valentia so who even knows.

Happy New Year! I wish you all the best.

I know resolutions don't tend to stick for most people, but do you all have any ideas you'd like to at least try?

You do have a point. We'd just have to hope IS gives it enough time in the oven to rehash the maps instead of throwing it out under the identical design of the original for "Guys we're selling 3H 2!". After all, CQ had grand gameplay (for most people), but 3H took very little from that. Engage had a while to cook given its circumstances.

Thank you. As much as it is overly stated, I really do believe 2024 will be different for me. I hope you have a great New Year and may your crusades change history.

Truly they were a true fan of Kaga's works. Whoever remakes FE6 will make the hit rates twice as bad.

I really wanna learn how to draw. I'll try sticking to drawing one thing a month. Hopefully by the end of the year, I'll be able to draw Lindon, Vander, and Saphir all chilling together.

No problem. I think every year is a good year, though.

I remember 2023 was going to be a big year for a lot of people, and it was for a lot of them, which was good. Each years has its own things and breakthroughs for different people. Here's to more good changes this year.

Those maps are perfect and will look amazing in HD

the mag length,

You mean like animation time? Nothing wrong there, and if there were, we've been able to speed up animations mid game since Awakening, right?

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

the enemy layout,

That's fine.

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

add quality over quantity (for enemies),

I prefer quality of quantity as a design philisophy, the map design does call for quantity in Genealogy and I think it works. Quality is occasionally there with the Ishtar like enemies.

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

the weapon balance,

Yes.

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

the holy weapons,

Only losing them via bad inherentance

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

the romance between Sigurd and forest lady he just met,

Might be impossible to fix

the villages giving money to your healer that spent 50 turns to get there,

I see nothing wrong with that.

the trade system,

Let lovers trade with each other and it's good.

the difficulty

Too easy or too hard?

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

the walking sim aspect,

*Riding sim

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

the 50 turn love point system,

They'll probably give us conventional supports instead 

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

the invisible barrier "integration",

Not sure that can be fixed

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

the time consuming arena grind that doesn't scale to prioritize giving Sigurd even more money,

I like that it doesn't scale. Makes set benchmarks for units to reach and gives personality to the generic enemies 

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

marriages behind your back,

The conventional support system would fix that

resist temptation to add Reindhart,

...

fix great shield emblem,

Only an issue in chapter 2

fix most skills,

I nominate Tellius capacity system

give a Sigurd/Quan/Eldigan backstory without charging it as DLC,

...get your wallet out

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

remove battle saves for DS save circles,

I like DS save system better too but I'm not sure the battle saves are necessarily something that needs to be fixed.

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

not force in contrived lore for divine pulse,

Absolutely, if all settings this needs to be gameplay mechanic only.

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

add more to its storytelling than villains monologuing what they already know every castle siege,

Hopefully we'll see more off screen stuff

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

NOT turning the castles into Somniels,

That ship might have sailed. Most we can hope for is a visually different castle each chapter to match the story 

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

add reclassing options,

Yes please. That will synergize with inheritance well.

3 hours ago, Shaky Jones said:

No, Binding Blade is perfect and requires no remake.

add Cord into the game.

Sure, why not? Game could do with more axe users

Speaking of romances, Althena can't romance with anyone. I wonder if that was intentional or an oversight.

I actually took a drawing class this past semester. I don't wanna preach, but if you don't have one already, definitely get a sketchbook. You can also find plenty of tutorials online, but a good starting point to would be to sketch out objects as you see them, a couple things here and there every so often to get a feel for it.

And then, I dunno, draw the rest of the owl or whatever.

Actually the year was more than satisfactory! Thanks Jotari and I hope the same to you, hope the same for all you guys too.

 Also if they don't add an avatar and probably remove the option of Shannam being able to marry his cousin too (I think he says that Larcei reminds him of Ayra at some point too, which only makes it worse...). THEN it'd be golden (but I agree on FE6's remake too, this will be part on my out-of-my-control resolutions lol.). I actually like how Sigurd and Deirdre's romance seems wishy washy and alarmingly rushed, for me it looked like it was the point of it (Sigurd thinks he's having a love at first sight fairy tale romance, only for it to be a thing that was doomed from the start, and then it adds to Seliph's journey of not making the same fuck ups as his father because if he had married Julia instantly he'd have married his own sister) so I'd actually be sorta mad if they changed that one, aside from that I'd like the changes you proposed (they could let the units trade shit too and maybe made it harder to get the wrong pairs- such as Lewyn and Silvia- accidentally?).

 Oh, good to know that they did that, this raises my hopes too! In terms of story they could at least fix how expository the dialogue feels... a LOT of the time (stuff such as "Hi, as you know, your father, lord X, who is friends with lords Y and Z and has bad relations with lord W, did that thing (explains thing) 10 years ago, right before he met Lord XX, as you already know but the player doesn't so I'm explaining it like a robot, by the way, I know we just talked about it half an hour ago, but can you explain to the player to me what was our plan again? In detail, please, also explain why we are making the plan too").
