Some interesting things I found out while playing FEH:
-You actually get Divine Dew equal to the amount of Refining Stones you use to upgrade a weapon. Using 20 Refining Stones gives you 20 Divine Dew and using 50 Refining Stones gives you 50 Divine Dew. So upgrading 3 weapons that require 50 Refining Stones each gives you 150 Divine Dew.
-When reading the enemy descriptions for the new enemies, when you get to Laevatein, it mentions that she is the "second princess" of Múspell, who Surtr is the King of. When you read Loki's description, she is referred to as the strategist of Muspell, not a princess of Muspell. So Laevatein has a possible older sister who has not been revealed yet, much like how Fjorm has an older sister named Gunnthrá who we got a sneak peek of in the 'The Rite of Blades' story map.
-Also, Laevatein is voiced by Rie Kugimiya, often referred to as the "Queen of Tsundere", as she voiced Louise of Familiar of Zero and Taiga of Toradora. She also voiced Kagura of Gintama and Oda Nobunaga of Fate/Grand Order or Fate/Guda Guda.

Damn... I predicted that Rhajat wouldn't be on the upcoming Fates banner, all the moreso because Christmas Tharja is coming, but now I realize that is actually the reason why they would introduce her clone right beforehand. How smart.

Even worse, I want the other three more than I expected, so looks like I'll be forfeiting the nearly 200 orbs I'll have built up by then. The art for each of them is all great and they seem pretty solid.

I've really only played Smash and Pokemon extensively... I feel like I don't belong in the gaming community.
That's all right, you'll still fit in here just fine. Every time a Pokemon game comes out we have huge conversations about it in here anyway, LOL.

I started largely with Pokemon and found following Smash communities a pretty good gateway to finding a ton of other good stuff though, so sometimes things just kinda. . .happen regardless of how they started, hah.

Apparently the new blade was designed by a woman.

That doesn't change a lot but I found it interesting.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

I think ARMS might make it in this time. Just a gut feeling.

Gundam Versus would be cool but that's just wishful thinking. Dissidia NT though, I wouldn't sleep on it just yet.

Square is really pushing for DFF:NT to be an e-sport and its already the second biggest arcade game in Japan so I think it has a shot.

The only barrier is how willing players are to play 3v3 because the game is designed around it.

Speaking of which, some people also think giant asses that look like it was ripped right off a hippo looks good too. I'm sure that's causing some problems to their bodies

"Let's assign a bunch of people who've never worked on the franchise before to design levels in a way that completely misses the point of what makes playing the franchise enjoyable.

This is much more logical of a direction for the series than something old and crusty like games people actually liked."

-Izuka, probably

I'm surprised it managed to stay in as much of one piece as it did. At least it wasn't active mutiny like Sonic 06.

So I just remembered that having Fjorm in the party with Clair will give her buffs during the Water season, and Elincia just learned Fortify Fliers.

So here's what Clair looks like with Hone Fliers, Fortify Fliers, and the Blessing buff.

From what I watched of the gameplay it was some of the worst level design I've seen. Just flat ground with a line of the same enemy

The thing about Forces is that there is some semblance of being both able to dash through stages like a maniac and trying to speed run them, trying different paths, for either high scores or rewards (Avatar pants).

But Sonic Generations already did that, but better (not necessarily more rewarding though).

I think the newbies had a decent first attempt though.

Much like Forces in general, best word to describe it is "decent"

So they designed it primarily for kids and "new Sonic fans" like they said from the start?

Like, I would have liked more involved level design too, but the game wasn't necessarily meant for the hardcore gamer.

And if I'm being honest, it's kinda hypocritical of people to criticise Forces for this and still praise SA2 when their approach to level design is pretty much the same, as was the execution.

my take on this Xenoblade controversy is "lol"
There is no controversy regarding Xenoblade Chronicles 2 at least lol
I mean we are talking about a controversy, that is not even a controversy.
What is this? What is anyone even talking about?
People are overreacting on a T rated JRPG's sexualized character design... again.
Despite the boobhell I still think Pyra's top kek expressions will define the game.
Just wonder what will other kind of expressions we will see in this game...
Apparently the new blade was designed by a woman.

That doesn't change a lot but I found it interesting.
Apparently most rare blades are seems to be mostly females....

This doesn't matter a lot but I found it interesting.

Also it's two new blades to be exact, they are the same artist.

Fjorm: "Oh!... I'm told touching me is like touching ice..."

If it isn't her damage art being awkwardly lewd, it's her quotes.

Whats turning me away from XC2, as petty as it sounds, Is there are barely any male blades, half of them are girls and I kinda want more males
I know I have mention this already and I know this post is a bit old...
I aware this is something that some people will be criticize on. But turn away from this game for the sake of "Too many blades are females" is a bit of a joke in my opinion. It also has a tiny bit of a SJW tone in my opinion...
That said, fingers cross we will see more blades that are rad.

Also here are some of the arts drawn by Ebata risa...
And yes, I checked her biography on Japanese Wikipedia...
Apparently... She used to draw NSFW works too...

Nah, the truth is she's just dead. Surtr killed her and she's cold because she's dead, and her ice powers keep her from decomposing.

I was wondering to myself that I have no clue what to do with the refinery system added in FEH, so I went to the reddit and saw a bunch of possibilities listed and holy **** some of this is outrageously strong.

Smoke Dagger: After combat, inflicts Atk/Spd/Def/Res-6 on target and foes within 2 spaces of target through their next actions. (what is this)

Rogue Dagger: After combat, inflicts Def/Res-6 on target and foes within 2 spaces of target through their next actions. Also grants Def/Res+6 on unit and allies within 2 spaces for 1 turn.

Staff users can get their weapon upgraded into having a Wrathful or Dazzling Staff effect. (Gennys and Lyns are friends, not fodder.) Most staff weapons have an AOE effect that affects the target and foes within 1-2 spaces of target.
This update has put daggers and staves on the map as some major threats. I'm not using Refining Stones on anything else.
