Arcphoenix Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 As the title says. Are there any games of the series you'd like to see a prequel or sequel to? What would it be about and in what medium? Personally, I'd like to see a story following the First Exalt of Ylisse accounting the details of his battle against Grima, the origins of the Grimleal, the end of Alm's dynasty and perhaps an explanation why his Falchion is absent in Awakening. Perhaps an explanation in regards to the changes in the function of the dragon table? Also, there is the Schism that Basilio mentions in which Ferox and many other "modern nations" of Awakening's time were founded. I'm partial to it being an anime original myself, as I feel if FE ever got an anime, an original story would be best rather than an adaptation. Granted it could be a game alternatively. Also on Awakening, I feel a short story on Robin's childhood and time with his/her mother leading up to how he/she wound up in the field at the start of Awakening would be nice. For Fates, I'd like some more background on Garon and perhaps even information on how he came to be Anankos's pawn. What background information would you be interested in hearing more of for any of the games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faellin Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Maybe a prequel to fates focusing on a younger king Garon (The leader and king that Xander praises) and Sumeragi as the lords? Anything to fill in the many plotholes the game had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chconroy Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 A third Elibe game is probably one of my most wanted Fire Emblem games. I'd love to see the continent before the Scouring, getting to see humans and dragons living together and how the situation deteriorated into a complete war. It'd also give us a chance to see the Eight Legends before they became legends and how they interacted with each other; I want to see them meet first time, maybe clash with each other over differing personalities and ideologies, and how they rise to win the war.

Silver-Haired Maiden Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I've mentioned before but a prequel to the Tellius games would be great. Following Ashera and Yune's war and Altina and the others. It ends with Yune being sealed and perhaps the establishment of Begnion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucarioGamer812 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Besides Awakening follow ups and prequels, I'd want either the scouring from Elibe or a Tellius prequel or sequel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armagon Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Magvel needs a new game. It's worldbuilding is poor and there's a lot of mystery surrounding it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think that a prequel focusing on the fall of the Demon King or a sequel on life after The Sacred Stones would be better for revisiting Magvel? I'm leaning towards the former, but I can see either one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkwing Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I'd like a sequel to Shadows of Valentia. I've given my exact thoughts of how I personally want it play out elsewhere, but I think it would be a great chance to expand upon Alm and Celica's characters, see some interactions between characters who didn't in the original game, build upon the worldbuilding, and provide IS the chance to fix, or at least mend, some of the flaws in the original game, both plot and gameplay-wise. It's small, but I think that a short but sweet comic series on what misadventures the Awakening children got into before getting recruited could do fairly well. There would be great chances for comedy, and it would help explain how and why each character is stuck in their own predicaments by the time you requite them. It would also the provide the chance to add more worldbuilding to the pretty barebones world of Awakening too, and to see these characters again.

Etrurian emperor Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Fateslandia. The concept of two big superpowers and several minor nations and tribe having to live alongside those two sounds rather interesting. Fateslandia suffered from a lack of worldbuilding but unlike other countries with that problem like Ylisse and Magvel I feel there are more stories to be told in that world if they just put the effort in.

Jotari Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Awakening prequel with Chrom's crazy father as the villain. That's one of the most interesting plot points in the game, especially when you factor in his possible reasons for acting that way (preventing Grima's revival), and yet it's never really expanded upon (I don't think we even know his name). Which is really good when it comes to prequel fodder as it gives a lot of freedom to tell the story. Plus, we could get to see young Gregor!

Skyla Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 A Tellius prequel would be amazing. Either following Greil and Elena's depart from Daein or Freaturing Altina/ Lehran as the protagonist in the war against Yune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtutel Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 The only games that never got Follow-ups were Sacred Stones and Fates.I don't know enough about Sacred Stones, but I think a prequel featuring Sumeragi, Garon, Azura's father and/or Anakros could be interesting. Of the four characters, I think Azura's father would be the most likely protagonist, since he has blue hair. Or maybe a customizable Anakros who forgot his own name. Maybe we could see how Garon went from being young, handsome and noble like Xander to well...Garon. Before Fates came out, I always wondered what they would do if they ever continued Awakening. My two predictions were: * A game starring the Lucina of the current timeline, all grown up and having to face some new threat. Maybe they'd be a way to establish who married who in the first generation, which will effect when and where you recruit the other characters. And maybe they'd fully answer the lingering questions about Morgan * A game starring Praim. I always thought he was an easter egg for the next game, which stars a descendant of Ike the same way Awakening stars a descendant of Marth. Who knows if that will happen, though. I admittedly kind of what a descendant of Roy (and by extension Eliwood) someday, to complete the Smash Bros descendants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my thoughts I see a Plegian lord being possible, though Chrom’s father having good intentions but a bad legacy could make an interesting story. There’d also be a chance to see Valm pre-Walhart, which could be interesting, as well as perhaps seeing Gangrel pre-Awakening (and by extent Plegia before Gangrel if he became king during or after Chrom’s father’s rule).

Well Gangrel's entire beef with Ylisse is based on Chrom's father's action, so a young Gangrel would most defnitely be featured in some capacity. You know, it would never actually happen. But I'd actually love to see the Valm arc of Awakening redone as an entire game. It would probably have to be Thracia 776 as it'd be odd to just start the game as Chrom and his entire army. Maybe it'd focus on a native lord who builts strength throughout the game, with the ocassional Awakening character like Virion and Say'ri being recruited here and there, and Chrom and Robin joining at the end as the Gotoh archtype. I really liked the Valm arc, but it was possibly the mis handled thing the series has ever tried. Spinning it out to 25-30 chapters on it's own could be epic. Not sure how they could handle Robin's appearnce though. Maybe a randamized avatar on each playthrough? Or just the default design with a randomized gender (or possibly the opposite gender to the protagonist if the protagonist is an avatar).

Definitely. With all the different groups- nations, tribes, beast-shifter villages, a whole hidden world, and ninja-clans alike - there’s really quite a lot of different places in the Fates world which just got overshadowed by Nohr and Hoshido. I’d like Fates sequel to have a lord from neither superpower if a sequel comes, and the larger countries actually being irrelevant to the plot, save potential cameos Edited March 29, 2018 by Arcphoenix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasori Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Fates world really needs expending since it the only continent that lacks even something as basic as a name. The ancient battle depicted in the painting of the reveal trailer might be an easy way to jump in too. I remember a blue haired samurai fighting against Norh that wasn't really used other then in the trailer. I forgot most Sacred Stone endings so I don't know how much they'd need to retcon, but Sacred Stones might have a good base for a sequel. The giant earthquake that would completely devastate Grado and the bad blood from the previous war could both lead to some pretty interesting situations.

Slumber Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) I think I'm good on mainland Archanea.If they want to touch on or revisit other continents in that world(*coughcoughJugdralcoughcough*), I'd be down. Just no more Archanea/Ylisse. Also no more Fateslandia games. Just contain that tire fire to one game. And preferably no more Magvel. They had their one shot to make it an interesting place, and they blew it hard. Either dedicate resources to make a new, interesting world, or revisit somewhere with a coherent identity. Everywhere else is still on the table. Edited March 30, 2018 by Slumber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jave Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Jugdral and Elibe are probably the only ones I'm not interested on new stuff. Both continents having two gens kinda wore me out on them, as it feels all the interesting stuff was done already. All the others... sure, why not. I'll take another Fates game to expand on the world, since I felt there was lots of stuff that wasn't explored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Anri, no Crusaders, no Eight Legends. I dunno, I guess it could be hard to tell a story about legends because they have no history to fall back on? Even though I complain about Awakening all the time, I'd actually really like a game about Lucina's timeline. It seemed like a much more interesting plot then "Go back in time and fix it before it happens." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book Bro Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Elibe, Ylisse, Valentia. An Elibe prequel with Athos/Nergal could be cool. Or in the Scouring. A sequel would have potential after Binding Blade, maybe something more political dealing with the fallout of Bern's defeat. For Ylisse, I would be interested in a game with Lucina as the main lord in the alternate future ending with her traveling back, as long as the writing is stronger. I've thought about this idea as a classic RPG spinoff actually, with some of the other kids joining your party. A prequel about Chrom's dad vs Plegia would be interesting too, again, with good writing please. For Valentia I would enjoy seeing a sequel with similar mechanics and more creative maps. I feel like Tellius is fine as it is and Fates is such a mess I would have no idea where to start. I would be fine with more Magvel or Archanea too.

Slumber Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 I have a hard time keeping any interest in a alternate future Awakening. There are two ways they could go with it: A) Just a whole game of the Future Past DLC, where we already know the conclusion. It'd feel pretty lackluster, to say the least. B) They write a scenario where Lucina and co. wins. The problem with this being that Robin is full on Grima in this future and Naga is dead. They can't use the "Grima technically killed itself and bypassed its immortality" angle, and without Naga, they can't even use the Falchion to put Grima to sleep for 1000 years. Awakening goes to no small effort to explain that Lucina's future is completely fucked and unfixable. Any potential resolution to any story that takes place AFTER the events of Awakening would feel like a massive cop out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Light Strategist Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Honestly, I'd like a sequel to Awakening that's actually set in the same general areas. I'd like the kids to be the leading focus this time around, however. Just because I'd genuinely like some of the untouched characteristics of them to be touched on. Heck, I wouldn't mind if it was set with Inigo, Owain and Severa returning from Fates somewhere in the story. It'd be really cool to incorporate the information into it.

Jotari Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Another thing that would never happen (unless they rerelease Jugrdral and it becomes mega popular), Verdane and Agustria 776. Verdane and Agustria are the territories you primarily explore in the first generation of Genealogy of Holy War and we hear almost nothing about what goes down there during the second gen as every major character in the world inexplicably ends up on the east coast no matter how much sense it makes. So anything set there about their own rebellions would almost entirely feature new characters (surely Chagall had a son we never hear about) and plot lines making it less of a sequel and more of a continuity porn original story. Still, I think it could be really cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
