Ice Dragon Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I'm sad that we won't be able to have Duma, Gharnef, etc. having a conversation with himself or something else like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickenBits Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Tiki's accessory looks really cool~ it's just so ominous. It's really sweat that Berkut's accessory is a distorted/burnt version of Rinea's flower. Besides the accessories, this one should be neat since all four of these character are outright antagonistic to just about anyone. I'm not expecting anything too crazy since it's FEH but I am looking forward to the supports and story this time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Those accessories are pretty neat. I guess I could do this FB after all. Still not looking forward to the writing though. I don't know how this could possibly be done well when it's villainous possessed characters... Especially after the one with Aversa and Loki and them.

Regardless I'm excited for this one. It certainly is going be a very interesting forging bonds cause of how creepy and obsessed these characters are being made out to be so I'm curious where IS will go with this cause there are so many opportunists for very unique and creative character interaction here. I always love villains getting into heroes cause it's an interesting way to develop them beyond their original game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icelerate Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Having such a funny cast of characters in FB is the silver lining to this banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts exactly, but to be fair, I imagine it's for the contrast between being the Askr Trio and Fjorm being calm and collected individuals (or super friendly in Sharena's case) and dark, edgy, gloomy and corrupted characters. This FB will be either hit or miss by a long shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to remember that that FB and others before and after until the Nifl FB happened, were all player pandering. After Nifl, the writing of FB increased substantially and removed themselves from player pandering. We already had one with Idunn, and she's not that different from these ones here. Now we have a chance of seeing how four possessed characters are in the FB. I think we can have some faith in the writing team if only a little. All they have to do is NOT make it player pandering.

Mau Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Those accessories are top tier hell yessss. And really looking forward to the convos this time, this has got to be interesting with this cast of characters. Not looking forward to the grinding again though sigh. When will they just dump the multipliers and always give us 2x multiplier, what is the point of forcing us to play at certain times of the day?

Mercakete Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Oooooo niiiice. :D Corrin's hairclip reminds me more of Lucina, but I know that it is a character customization option for fem Corrin in Fates. It looks super-cool, though! And I LOVE that Berkut gives Rinea's flower, but fire-ized! Ah, the feels! I hope we get fire Rinea sometime. :) Maybe even with a background reference to Berkut, like he has with her. I don't know how likely this is, though. I'm also kind of amazed that I predicted Berkut being used as one unit with Rinea (kind of.) The way I thought of it was "what if they have a 2 unit in 1 thing, where you summon 2 characters coupled together to work as one unit instead of 2 separate ones?" I was trying to think of how they may go forward with powercreep lol. This isn't quite the same, but it makes me happy. :) Also, I love that Corrin has a tail! :D (Some of these comments are probably better suited for the topic about the characters themselves, but this is all just what's coming to mind at the moment.) I always love Forging Bonds. I also have a respect for villains since without them, the story could very well be uninteresting. It'll be fun to see what these guys have to say!

Some Jerk Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Mareeta: "I MUST STAIN MY SWORD WITH THE BLOOD OF A THOUSAND INNOCENTS." Corrin: "OH GOD WHO ARE ALL YOU PEOPLE GET AWAY" Tiki: "BURN IT ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL" Berkut: "What's that, Rinea? Murder Alm and dance in his entrails? Good idea!" Kiran: (: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XRay Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 I thought the orange flower (I think it is a flower?) Accessory to the far right was Rinea on fire for a second. I think having Rinea on fire as an Accessory would be so much cooler than an orange flower. The EX version could be Gunnthrá on fire.

Diovani Bressan Posted May 8, 2019 Author Share Posted May 8, 2019 Maybe the EX version of each accessory will be their normal forms instead of the fallen forms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say exclusively, at least not in Aversa's case. To give credit where it's due, the writers did give her some pretty solid characterization during her A and S supports. Shame all the terribly delivered fanservice that came beforehand overshadowed it. At any rate, IS seemed to have learned their lesson after the Brave Redux and Nifl events, and the supports have been generally interesting since then. I agree that this one should be fun.

Xenomata Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Seems the corrupted heroes still have shards of their former selves left to break through their... well, whatever it is that drives them. And the EX accessories are, indeed, untainted versions of their dark normal versions, so normal Tiki Tiara, FemCorrin Hairpin, Rinea flower, and another feather hairpin.
