Rezzy Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 11 minutes ago, NSSKG151 said: According to this Robin's English video received the least amount of dislikes despite being out the longest and I have heard plenty of people throw a hissy fit of two Grimas being released in a short amount of time so if anything that should be the most disliked video so I see it reasonable to believe that the amount of likes/dislikes a video received shouldn't be taken that seriously. Since Robin is an avatar character with two genders, I don't think giving both versions a seasonal or evil version is that egregious, especially since Grima is its own character of sorts in the source material.

It was honestly kind of overdue given her popularity, though the dislike bar definitely does make me worried. Why should you be? You like the character regardless so don't let it affect you 4 minutes ago, SilvertheShadow said: Eh, I think the Sonic fandom has calmed down after Mania was released. Undertale would probably be the more relevant pick imo, maybe League of Legends though the toxicity there is for different reasons. It's just frustrating that the "my way or no way" mentality is so strong (more so with some of the vets ngl, but sometimes the way the newish people respond don't help themselves either). Not everyone is going to agree with who you like, how you play, or what's your favorite. Deal with it people. Is LOL's fandom really that bad? If it's one toxic player every game then that's a tenth of the fandom in general Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Railgun Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Eh, Lucina getting a Legendary version doesn't surprise me. It was gonna happen eventually, she's one of FE's most popular characters. And while I'm a fan of her, I can see why some people aren't happy with this banner. It's like the whole issue with Legendary Lyn again. Also, not sure if I'll even roll for Lucina when I want Micaiah on the Distant Defense banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roflolxp54 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 26 minutes ago, Mackc2 said: That's what I meant we have a single colourless compared to three green, three blue and two red. Both of the bow legendary heroes should have been colourless I don't see colored bows as a problem as there were no physical ranged units that have to obey the weapon triangle before Legendary Lyn came along. Similarly, before F!Grima, every colorless unit was a ranged unit. The main problem is that IS doesn't seem to have a clue on how to put together marketable colorless units, especially given that many major characters use very traditional weapons like swords.. Not helping matters is that F!Grima (well, female Robin) is just popular. For the Lucina fans, have fun getting merges/IVs! This is something Lyn fans have to deal with on top of the number of alts.

And really, posts like this are part of the problem in why the Fire Emblem community is so toxic and divisive. That's rich coming from the guy who believes Lyn deserve getting a 5th alt. You call toxic, but I'm the guy who did try to get like & understand the franchise, but it's far more insisting to have a "Us Vs Them" mentality. 22 minutes ago, SilvertheShadow said: Awakening is my second favorite game and I don't even care about Lucina. So can we all just get along for once? I'm tired of all this toxicity. I'll only be pulling green orbs, colorless if they're unavailable. You ask for the impossible. 8 minutes ago, Rezzy said: I think a large portion of the saltiness is anti-alt in general and not just anti-Lucina. I got more real reasons to hate on Hector's alt than anyone else here. He's been the same color 3 times already & no one is nearly bitching about as they should. & That's really really fine, but if you're going to tell that the worst things that could happen to Seliph & Julia is having 4 more alts then this fanbase go can to hell 17 minutes ago, Tybrosion said: Nope, because enough people in this fandom are hellbent on trying to get us to surpass the Sonic fandom when it comes pointless bitching and overall toxicity, assuming we haven't already. Though yeah, I more than wholeheartedly agree with you. Sadly, things in this fandom are more likely to continue to get worse before they get better. I will never ever understand how exposure & relevancy are the worst things that could happen to a franchise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reveal hidden contents Yeah, it's gotten to the point where I think FE has a puncher's chance at winning in a free-for-all with Sonic, My Little Pony (FiM), Five Nights at Freddy's, Undertale, Overwatch, etc. for shittiest and most unpleasant fandom. Why can't we be chill like the Kirby fandom or something? Does Kirby even have an active fandom? Or are they just so chill that they literally just by the games and smile? 2 minutes ago, silveraura25 said: Why should you be?

Humanoid Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) Colourless male Grima as a legendary cavalry dragon will have to do. I'm still totally in favour of abolishing the colour(less) altogether though. Obviously logistically it's nigh-impossible now, but if there was a sequel, I think it'd make perfect sense. Both bows and daggers already have the framework to be implemented in the RGB system, and it'd be simple enough to merge healers into tomes. Attach a damage penalty to staves or healing assists, instead of having it something inherent to the class. __________ Probably the most disappointing part of this month's reveal is that it's the first time there hasn't been a new movement type for a given element. Currently we have the following: Water: Infantry, Flier Wind: Cavalry, Infantry, Infantry Fire: Cavalry, Armour Earth: Infantry, Flier So all previous legendary heroes have come with the opportunity to build a new emblem team around them. Lucina, on the other hand, would generally just use the same teammates as Lyn. Would have been nice to have her as Flier or Armoured, or otherwise add her as a Fire hero instead, which still lacks infantry.

Nora Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Another Lucina is kind of boring, but has some really interesting skills, just not enough for me to summon for her. I'll probably just pass on the banner in general, especially since I could always spend my orbs on the Distant Defense banner for more Micaiahs, or summon of the Summer one for pretty much anyone.

Sunwoo Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Julius's line about hating Reinhardt is actually directly from FE5.

redlight Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 People's brains register the worst they experience from something. That's how you get "X has a bad fandom/community" statements.

If you're swearing about a bunch of pixels called Hector, you mustn't have many problems in your life. Actually... EVERYONE CHILL! Were it not this topic is for the upcoming banner and thus relevant, I'd ask for it to be locked. Maybe the mods could approve of in the future "Crumpled Aggression Paper Topics"? Initial release topics (for VGs and banners alike) for people, just in case, to vent all their frustrations into. Within two days, the topic is deleted, and a separate one is used for serious, calm discussion of the actual banner at hand. Thus all needless rage is wiped out of existence doesn't pollute a good topic and forum, hopefully that'd get it all out of everyone's systems.

I think Julius threatens to kill Reinhardt if he sees him towards the end of FE5, if I remember correctly. Reinhardt is somewhat prominent in FE5. Maybe not as much as Heroes has hyped him to be, but like Petrine in PoR or Narcian in FE6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I question his reasoning. Didn't Reinhardt raise Ishtar? Most likely she would view him as a brother or mentor figure than a potential lover. Wouldn't he be concerned about more important matters such as the liberation army, getting more children and/or crushing rebellions? It seems like a case of screwed priorities.
