The English Title

Fates is way better than "If" imo. I really don't understand why people hate the western name for the game, I really like it. :(

Because the Japanese way is always better, even when they use English words!

Fates is a bit generic though, and with both "birthright" and "conquest" being used, it sounds cluttered.

Honestly speaking, what I get used to first, is the one I prefer.

And the Japanese voice actors saying "If" in all the promotional material got me used to it.

I mean, I think I'd get used to it after HOURS AND HOURS OF TRANSLATION VIDEOS.

Maybe to some people. But I almost always prefer English titles and names over Japanese ones.

Birthright for Hoshido sounds cool. but Conquest for Nohr just makes them sound... evil. it's really upsetting me how evil Nintendo is making out Nohr to be lol I suppose not all conquests should be considered negative but...

as for 'Fates' I like the name. I've seen a number of people shaking their heads that it doesn't fit the choice theme or for whatever other reason, but I think it's alright. your fate changes with your choices & isn't a constant. so yeah. I have nothing against it. 'if' is still a nice name too & I'll honestly most likely keep calling it 'if' since that's what it's been for the past 6 months for us.
