CWGameplay Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I've been looking around the SoV thread, and while I'm seeing a lot of interesting threads, I'm also seeing a lot of negativity and pessimism. While I completely understand how people can be nervous about avatars, or gameplay, or even changes to the story, I want to mainly see what people are excited to see from the game. I'm insanely excited for this game, and I'm avoiding fears until they're confirmed by trailers. So until they show an avatar, or show pair-up, I'm not going to worry about it. But what are you guys excited to see in SoV? I think the thing I'm most excited about is the dungeon crawling. Something only really included in Gaiden that could be interesting on the 3ds.

Christianguy7 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I'm just excited to see a new Fire Emblem game. Not only does a Fire Emblem, and two FE amiboos come out that week, but I also get out of school two days before it comes out. College is seriously draining me down man, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a change to do something really cool with it, and I just love the possibility of controlling FE characters in a 3D space. Let's hope they knock that out of the park! I also think at this point I'm just excited to see the new character designs after loving what they have done with alm/celica/boey/saber. Can't forget the music, too! Gaiden already had one of the best OST's of any FE imo, and the re-arranges so far are phenomenal. TBH, just about everything I see about this game makes me very very excited, and it has a real chance to contend for my favorite FE if it keeps it up.

Emerson Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) I honestly don't see why people are concerned about Avatars. There's literally nothing behind it, although the Efi character we saw before could be one, as the white hair and somewhat gender neutral name (I believe) could be an indicator. If it's so, let's hope they don't get too much special treatment. But I still think its waaaaay too soon to be seriously concerned over the prospect of an avatar. Anyways, to the main topic, I'm mostly just glad this exists. Overall, I'm most happy about seeing a certain Pegasus Knight come back again, plus those free-roaming dungeons look really cool.

PersonWithTime Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Alright, so I haven't been on here in a while and look what I missed out on. THE REVEAL OF GAIDEN REMAKE!!! HOLY DAMN!!! OH MY GOD!!! Anyway, I'm really looking forward to Palla and Est having some voices. Oh and playing a version of Gaiden that isn't too dated for my own tastes.

AsherCrane Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I'm personally really interested in the replacement to tomes, however they end up working. Boey using that lightning without a tome looked awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandy Druid Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I'm ready to see the redesigns of the cast and see who changed drastically. I like that it's a smaller cast of characters this time around, because I hate having tons of characters sit on the bench. I'm also excited for the game mechanics as well, since, it's the only Fire Emblem that features dungeon crawling, HP-based magic (no tomes), and sidequests. And I'm curious to see if they made improvements where it was needed: more story, more character development (they didn't have support conversations), actual growth rates, actual drop rates (not that 0.014% BS), and not have any repeated maps.

In the original, mages learned spells as they gained levels and it costs a small amount of HP to cast a spell, so they could be using the original mechanic for this game. I think it's interesting, and really explains why mages uses tomes and staves in the first place, so their HP won't be drained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way tomes worked in Gaiden was something I really enjoyed about it I played Gaiden but couldn't get too into it, if only because of the outdated graphics, but one thing I loved about it was some of the gameplay mechanics Along with dungeon crawling I'm excited to see if the Gaiden magic system makes a return.

The Malign Knight Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Tbh I just want to see Duma vs Alm. Not because I want to know what Duma looks like or something like that, but because in the original NES version It was quite the intense and epic battle for me, so I really can't wait to see it again with updated graphic and, most importantly, music.

Thane Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Spells and loot, hopefully with some fun new additions. Dungeon crawling has the potential to be really good, but it might also turn out to be frustrating; I don't want a repeat of Rigel Castle's underground and guess what holes I should fall into in order to progress - on a timer of sorts, no less.

Tolvir Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) Dungeons, overworld map, and towns. I love exploration in games, no matter how limited. That in Fire Emblem is a dream come true. That and loot. I would love the ability to find special loot in places. It's why I love games like Skyrim or Oblivion. Nothing better than finding a random cave or set of ruins that has some crazy weapon or set of armor.

Robert Stewart Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I'm excited to see the whole Gaiden crew finally get art. Can't wait to see how spiffy everyone looks. :D Also to see how Ragnarok looks 3D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book Bro Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Towns and dungeons. I know in Gaiden they were really limited, but there's so much potential there that it makes me excited to see how far they take it. Towns were you can learn about the world, interact with your party members, and maybe even take on sidequests (basically an explorable barracks) would be a dream come true.

Huh, I never thought about interacting with your party members in town, actually. It would be a great way to implement supports or base conversations (or town conversations, I suppose).

Dinar87 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 As someone who spawned much of that negativity and pessimism you talked about I now look at gaiden very differently. Yes supports and stuff would be nice but I'm pretty this remake is for gaiden fans mostly so it's up to them what the game should have not casuals like me. If they don't want supports and stuff in then so be it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, what is already a given is that the art and the music will be fantastic, so I'm obviously excited about that. I also have high hope about Sonia's character. Her background is quite interresting, but revealing everything about a character in its ending was a trend back there. ANd fighting Rudolf. This trailer really was quite promising in lots of aspects (Alm and Cellica, and the dungeons.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Refa Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 -I want the towns to at least be as fully featured as the towns in Shining Force. -I'm excited for Gaiden to get an actual story. -I'm also excited for the very real possibility that hit rates won't be a fucking Skinner's Box. Gaiden hit rates are so stupid, it's ridiculous. -The characters getting actual art work is nice. Can't wait to see what Matilda looks like, and having some more Camus OA is always nice. -Speaking of the characters, it'll be great for them to finally get some development. -Some rebalancing is in order. Hopefully everyone is useful and they don't make mounts OP (mounts, Falconknights notwithstanding, were balanced in OG Gaiden). -Multiple difficulties and what they'll end up doing with them will be cool as well.

Radetzky120 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Left-handed Alm. Palla getting voiced. Gaiden in modern graphics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexArtsHere Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Experiencing a story lost to time, with every line voiced, no less! Hearing those beautiful remixes, especially Land of Sorrow! Meeting, what is to me, a new cast of characters. Getting those amiibo. They look so damn cool! Dungeon crawling! Looks fun and developed in the trailer, and it's certainly something I've never seen before in a Fire Emblem game. IT'S ONLY FOUR MONTHS AWAY!

SuperIb Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 -The art style and how characters will change from their original artwork (It's always fun to see how people/ideas evolve over the years) -Nostalgic feeling. I haven't played Gaiden, but I'm really happy there's going to be a remake of an older FE game on 3DS. I need a break from Awakening/Fates' quirks and pair-up systems and a return to good old Fire Emblem. (No offense to FE13/14. I like em, but they're just so different to me) -The plot. Again, haven't played Gaiden so I dunno how it was in the story department, but either way I'm excited to experience the now updated story of Echoes. (Wonder if it'll beat PoR/RD for me. Probs not, but I can hope) Those are all the things I can think of right now. The nostalgic feeling so far is my biggest attraction to the game and the main thing driving me to buy it.
