VincentASM Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) I noticed in one of shadowofchao's videos that there's a ring of ancient text surrounding Ashera when you battle her. I never really noticed it before, either because I wasn't really paying attention or it's harder to see on SD resolutions. [spoiler=Image] (Credits to soc) The text isn't super special or conspirational, but if you want to know what it says: (Starting from 12 o'clock and going clockwise) Fier Emblem (typo in the game)Nintendo Fier Emblem Nintendo Wii Akatsuki no Megami (Goddess of Dawn) Fier Emblem Nintendo Wii Akatsuki no Megami (Note that I'm not 100% sure on some of the letters; I guessed a lot based on context or similar shapes.) I wonder if this count as breaking the 4th wall? Also, does anybody recall any other ancient text in the game?

xanatha Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Wow that's really odd. I mean, of all the things they could have written, they chose THAT? I never noticed it before, but I'll most definitely pay more attention to such detail in the future. The only similarities I've found so far is the text that appears in the background when you choose between new game, load game, etc. Or maybe that only appears in Path of Radiance. I'm just assuming that's the names of people who have created the game, like in the credits. Then there is of course the fire emblem itself that appears in the beginning of every chapter. (Once again, I'm not sure if this belongs to Path of Radiance only.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tables Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 That's quite an amusing block of text. I would guess it was just chosen because they wanted some ancient text for the graphic, found that fitted, and then proceeded to ignore the typo because, well, why bother changing something so unimportant? It looks artistic and nice, so that's that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT075 Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 This looks like something similar to how all the ancient language signs in Skyward Sword say "Read me" or whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zanarkin Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) Also, does anybody recall any other ancient text in the game? the ancient text in Pelleas Dark spells. And i'm almost sure there are more on other speels but i can't remember... Edited February 15, 2012 by SlayerX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caliban of Sycorax Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Isn't there ancient text that surrounds Ashera when she casts Judge? (the one in the actual battle scene, not the AOE ones) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
