Siuloir Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 I'm still confused by one thing: Why does Sykes (and the bounty hunter in Legault's chapter) have so little speed? Seriously, they have abnormally low speed for swordmasters. I guess it's to make up for their higher strength amounts, but wouldn't it make more sense to turn them into heroes instead, so the stats would make sense? Just my 0.02$. Some characters are just not that great. Look at Everrett. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtremekiwi Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Reference to Bill Sykes from Oliver Twist. Amazing swordsman in a longcoat, but not fast enough to avoid his death. Okay, I was not aware that he was a reference. Some characters are just not that great. Look at Everrett. I'm not saying that he's bad. I'm just saying that his stats are not what I expect from his class. But I'm just rambling now. I'm looking forward for the final release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haku Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Reference to Bill Sykes from Oliver Twist. Amazing swordsman in a longcoat, but not fast enough to avoid his death. It's actually a reference from a named character in a support between Noah and Jerrot in FE6... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJWalker Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Was the Zealot -> Jerrot change made to be in line with Gringe's FE6 patch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) It's actually a reference from a named character in a support between Noah and Jerrot in FE6... They were talking about Sykes' low spd stat for a Swordmaster, not where the actual character comes from. Edited September 6, 2014 by L95 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siuloir Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Was the Zealot -> Jerrot change made to be in line with Gringe's FE6 patch? I harassed Arch about it I brought it to Arch's attention, because of the frequent rendering of ゼ as "Je" in translation, which Gringe accounted for. (Also, Gringe is a fantastic translator and credit where credit is due, I likely wouldn't have thought to do it had he not gone there first.) After years of interacting with them, awkward translations make me twitch. (Now if people would properly render Delmud as Diarmuid/Dermott).

Ninian Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 The issue with fan translations is that there will never be one where everyone is happy. Take Ward/Wade, for example. Wade is probably the correct name, but Ward is the more commonly liked one. Correctness vs popularity is a difficult choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are are better ways to render Wade in katakana. Edited September 6, 2014 by Siuloir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I consider all the characters to go by their Serenes Forest names, since thats wht i went by ;) But it is awesome to see the hacks use the same names and whatnot ;) Oh and great job Arch and to everyone who helped with this. Havent played any of it yet, waiting on the final release but it looks friggen incredible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) Elibian Nights: going boldly where no hack has gone before! Get rekt fools, dating sim FE just got confirmed. Since this project refuses to go quietly into the night, I'm going to use these final gasps of air to make it feel "complete." A big part of that is incorporating more storyline changes based on the player's choices and actions. Looking at the project, that's the part that feels lacking. You've all been playing (mostly) the same tales for a while now, and this is one last way of spicing things up. The matchmaking screen will load the six females whose pairings can be altered - the Prince/Princess talks to them, and then the woman becomes a playable unit with dudes loaded to talk to. This will change the cast of tales based on which pairings you pick. Look forward to a lot more substantive alternate endings, too. So basically...since I'm still waiting on things, give me a month to finally nail this thing down? Edited September 10, 2014 by Arch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) Well, knocked the menu side out pretty quick. Lots of writing and some event revisions, but it shouldn't be anything too tedious. Gotta acquire a few substitution characters, though. http://pastebin.com/6f78Gc23 Here's the outline and the pairings list. If there's anything gravely missing, yell at me now or forever hold your peace.

Psych Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Doesn't it make more sense to have Serra paired with Erk and Oswin instead of Sain and Hector? She doesn't have a paired ending with those two, but she does with Erk and Oswin. And Priscilla has one with Guy instead of Sain. Man you really want to pair Sain. idk I just feel like if you're doing this, at least do the possible pairings oh and maybe include rebecca? idk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) Oh yeah, I totally changed Serra's since writing that. Didn't remember her Oswin paired ending, so I'll stick that in. I considered adding Becca too, but the changes won't have much impact on the story? I'll think about it. http://pastebin.com/QrbLg3GZ Edited September 10, 2014 by Arch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sticks out like a sore thumb.Out of loyalty to the artist and personal contentment (and basically "too late" at this point anyways especially now that I need mugs for substitute characters), I haven't pursued a replacement even though people have complained about it since...forever.
