Book of Ereshkigal Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) 'Technically' Sols japanese name is Sort. TBH, Sun and Evening don't even work that well. Sun and moon, or Evening and Morning would make more sense. Would Moon and Morning have worked, too? Edited January 9, 2013 by L95 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veetasoy Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) His NOJ name, yeah. But I'm not really sure what the point of those are anyway, since they differ from the in-game names. I'm guessing they used Sol because it started with S and had a bit of contrast to Soiree's name. I suppose they could have used mañana or whatever the word for morning is in Spanish, but Soiree and Mañana sound a little silly together lol. They could have also done Sol and Lune (for moon in French), but Sol and Soiree sound a lot more like a pair while still having some meaning behind their names. I'm guessing they cared more about how they sounded than what was actually behind those words. Edited January 9, 2013 by Keilis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Integrity Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 *called GameStop. Asked to preorder fe13. Not in their system as released until April. :? Good news: the GameStop site still says 2/4/13. I guess Texas is now being considered as a different country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domflo Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I'm actually curious as to how they are going to change Stahl's name in the German localisation. Considering that they changed Haar as well (and that it would just look dumb). Well, I'll see sooner or later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly Vitali Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 'Technically' Sols japanese name is Sort. TBH, Sun and Evening don't even work that well. Sun and moon, or Evening and Morning would make more sense. Would Moon and Morning have worked, too? Well, a soiree is also an evening party. I liked those two together--a evening party in French and sun in Spanish, which is the ultimate symbol of truth. They just had a great contrast. I know, Sort, whatever. But I loved Sol and Soiree. Oh well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly Vitali Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 ...Party and Truth? X'D Well, it's a night party. I dunno, when I think of that, I don't really get a pure image. Although it's an elegant term, still, it implies less than pure things. It's not like a tea party. I think lots and lots of drinking and things degrading from there. The sun is the opposite. It's truth and purity. It's unsoilable, really. I think it's a pretty accurate opposite, and actually pretty well thought-out. Maybe it's just me.

Mysterique Sign Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 "Fire Emblem Awakening not only features a full-fledged main story mode but also has a ton of DLC maps to keep the adventure going. The first map, available at launch, will be free for a limited time with additional maps available weekly. For more info, check out Official Site - Fire Emblem Awakening for Nintendo 3DS" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Stalker X Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Seems there's a preview made for the game on Destructoid. http://www.destructoid.com/preview-fire-emblem-awakening-looks-banging-242124.phtml Overall not really a big deal, but the one thing I did take note of in reading it was that they named the difficulty levels: Normal, Hard, and Insane.

Book of Ereshkigal Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Pretty sure it's someone just trying to troll, but I heard that there is an advertisement for that special FEDS in the latest issue of Game Informer, anyone around here happen to have the latest issue? Saw it here It probably is a mistake/BS but I'd really like someone to check. :E Edited January 10, 2013 by L95 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw it here It probably is a mistake/BS but I'd really like someone to check. :E Assuming you're talking about the January 2013 issue, no, there is not. Absolutely NOTHING related to Fire Emblem as far as I can tell. Can't speak for the December 2012 issue, but January 2013 has NOTHING Fire Emblem related. So yeah, straight up trolling, and lies. It's funny, because GameInformer is the only gaming news source I follow. EDIT: Also, can someone make note of this on that Gamefaqs thread? Just so the matter can be put to rest before rumors start spreading. Edited January 10, 2013 by Diortem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Stalker X Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 (edited) Huh. Here's something. On Gamestop's front page, Awakening is listed among their best sellers.

Miscellany Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Well, I bought mine last year to replace my old ds lite, so I can't say my toes were stomped on. Back to my original plan: paint my 3ds with the special one's design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
