AYY SAIN I THINK WE CAN BE FRIENDSAyy I just got my 3rd fe game, fe7, on the wii u virtual console. From what I've heard fe a and ss are 2 of the easier games in the franchise (I'm not surprised, I didn't struggle too hard with them) so with those being the only other 2 I've played, I don't know quite how hard I'll find fe7. I'm only on ch 2 think but I already know I won't use Kent but will use Sain just by their appearances and personalities, does anyone else get that while playing fe? where you know from the moment you meet a character if you'll use them or not? Anyway I already hate how much it babies me through the intro, not that I'm not surprised about it though, considering it was the 1st game out of japan, I hope it stops soon though. Please don't give me character spoilers, I want to see them for the first time myself.
Roy isn't a straight up agressive character, or at least you have to be really careful. His frame data is too slow for that. Like, for example, Captain Falcon can go in easier because his dash grab is so good, and he can cover close quarters combat options with his frame 3 jab. Roy has to be a bit more careful, at least imo. I think of him more as a walling, pressure, bait and punish type character, but that's just me lol. I like to use nair especially (A LOT) to own the stage (you can string nairs into nairs, sweetspot and sourspot), and force them to stay in frame trap situations because they can't easily get away from Roy's great mobliity. Also, don't be afraid to throw out uairs while you're being combo'd, it can actually work as a combo-breaker in some situations (not all, some). Just watch out for baits.So I am picking up Roy as a secondary. Mainly because he was my childhood favorite and his fighting style is excelent. I think that Roy might be one of the most aggressive characters in the game. Also, attacking with a sword upside down just looks sick.
Any advice for me?
^_^ FE7 and Sacred Stones; I'll remember those.If I.S wants to add past lords with DLC and sees some epic art, who knows? Maybe they'll have one of their picks, a character previously left out. Roy's mesh and new design in Smash looks eerily similar to obscure art a good amount of us sent in via ballot, email, and social media together early this year....
Awakening = leaving out Eliwood and some other lords entirely, Fates = no word on most continents with less hope for epic DLC redesigns.
I want to see Eliwood and Hector get their chance in Fates. I want to see Lyndis get something new too since being a trio is what makes them, and any of them being left out destroys that.
Their obscurity isn't what's hurting them, it's that they don't originate from Archanea or Ylisse for prime milking in the case of Fates, and that Lyndis was used to represent FE7 in Awakening when they could have just used all three since FE7's strength and role in FE history was having a heavily-contrasting lord trio. But I.S is a bunch of bucket heads.
Nah, it's only the people who say "Fire Emblem" and only mean Awakening and Fates that do this, anyone who is willing to at least acknowledge older titles and/or not Awakening-inize everything and maybe try more Fire Emblem when opportunities arise are A+ in my book.

I love 50% of Awakening and hate the other 50%. It feels like a second-rate anime, with painfully glaring plotholes and a good amount of dialogue bits that make no sense which detract from it. There were many opportunities for better writing and actual plot twists, unlike the "twists" they tried to throw in and eventually gave up on. Minimal strategy elements and just a meh feel overall hurt it. I still see an incredible amount of potential with what it could have been, and wouldn't mind the game reworked at some point to become much better.
Awakening on the first half of my first playthrough left a much, much better impression than any following glances at the game. You might be where I was in that regard if you have yet to try the game. If you do get more of a taste for it, you may feel the same, where its brand of different isn't a progressive or great one.
I can't see the necessary changes to fix the series with what truly makes Fire Emblem while remaining able to gross so many sales and appeal to the same crowd happening, unfortunately. They are definitely possible, though, so I'll peek in every now and then.
I was on the same thread briefly. I don't have the energy and patience to bother more with it for a while though.
Don't worry about that. You're fighting the good fight now and that's all that matters. It's a better time to push for the last DLC characters and future amiibo and FE content anyways rather than bother with it. You were previously against Roy around that time before seeing ChronoBound's words, and you weren't on Smashboards near as much iirc, which is perfectly fine and makes it easily understandable that you weren't there. You don't have to be from the support thread to be a valuable social member. bluecrow's a cool dude who isn't from that time and I still have a lot of respect for him.
It's only uphill from Shadow Dragon. FE7 and The Sacred Stones are recommendations I have for your next game that are easily-accessible.
I used to do this a lot more than I do now, it's more about teambuilding and classes for me now but I still will insta-use any character who truly stands out to me.
I loved 1v1'ing Murdock with Cath, Medeus with Julian, and making Sothe a general/laguz-destroying tank several times in PoR.
I always 1v1 Hardin with Feena, similar deal I suppose.
At least 7x and 10 are free reign, and Lyn's chapters can be sped through in less than an hour.
Learn what's safe in Roy's neutral, especially on shield and in footsies.
His punish game is good, use his falling uair/jab/fthrow/dthrow as universal combo starters, fair strings, maximize pummels, know when everything kills, and create sick strings based on DI/landing/reactions and such.
I would type more if I didn't have to go soon.
Oh god... I felt bad for Ike... Almost everyone expect to see him cut, and put Chrom in "his place" like the "Roy > Ike case". I'm grateful that doesn't was the case.*PTSD flashbacks of multiple people saying Lucina should/will replace Marth*

This are my opinions about the game, has great parts (like the music), okay parts (some characters are more original and cool than others), awful parts (the plots twists with Deux Ex Machina and the boring maps).I love 50% of Awakening and hate the other 50%.

I'm wonder how exactly help more the game... The actual game advertising or other things?I can't see the necessary changes to fix the series with what truly makes Fire Emblem while remaining able to gross so many sales and appeal to the same crowd happening, unfortunately.

Oh they have a good chance, specially if it's paid map DLC involvedIf only Chaos(Ablaze) and Divine Decree(Ablaze) got into Smash 4......
I personally don't really like Kent, also I usually prefer to only use one cavalier.AYY SAIN I THINK WE CAN BE FRIENDS
but please use his boon companion too, it will feel empty without him as well
And when I'm playing FE I just kinda use all of the units that I make OP from the beginning, or ones that look nice.

IT'S HAPPENING
I dunno man, for one thing Roy's fan design and Roy's actual design don't look all too similar aside from the fact that they both are a mixture between the Awakening and SoS design. I actually prefer the fan design more; it's more sleek looking. I really don't like the whole bell-bottoms thing going on with SSB4 Roy lol.If I.S wants to add past lords with DLC and sees some epic art, who knows?

I see. I haven't bought Awakening yet due to money and time, but I need to. Gotta see why the game is such a big deal after all.I love 50% of Awakening and hate the other 50%.

Fire Emblem was before Awakening's release the Fire Emblem best seller worldwide (and the only game before Awakening that almost get 1M).I dunno man, for one thing Roy's fan design and Roy's actual design don't look all too similar aside from the fact that they both are a mixture between the Awakening and SoS design. I actually prefer the fan design more; it's more sleek looking. I really don't like the whole bell-bottoms thing going on with SSB4 Roy lol.
Also, was that pic actually posted with the campaign you sent to Nintendo? If so, then if that design actually inspired Smash 4 Roy, then that means they actually saw it. Can't say that about my picture. It's on my tumblr, DA and reddit. That's it. XD
That's sad that they can't milk out FE7, I mean it's definitely a marketable game and a very important game in the franchise. It's the first game that got released outside of Japan. In fact, on a recent Fates poll, FE7 came either third or second as one of the games people played before Fates. It's still a relevant game.
I think the reason why they gave Lyn DLC was because of two reasons: She actually appears in Smash Bros, with full voice acting and everything, and she's a cute girl. Cute girl+Smash notoriety= EZ marketing. Can't say that about Eliwood and Hector. Eliwood has to compete with Roy, who is already popular and looks just like him. Hector? Well he's more popular at least. I actually don't know why he didn't get DLC. It's probably because he's not a cute anime girl like I said.
And I remember for the Song of 100 Heroes set, they drew Eliwood and Lyn (albeit with rehashed DLC art) but they didn't draw Hector. It's so weird how IS only represents one or two characters of the FE7 trio but exclude the other. This isn't just with official sources either, it's with the fanbase as well. Hector and Lyn are usually praised while Eliwood is forgotten or criticized. I like all three of them; is it a crime to have all them all together? XD.
Wow, really? That makes even less sense for IS to ignore FE7 now.Fire Emblem was before Awakening's release the Fire Emblem best seller worldwide (and the only game before Awakening that almost get 1M).
Wait... Hector doesn't get a "Song of 100 Heroes" Art? Even the other "missing in Awakening" guys get a Art... Weird xD
Anyway, does anyone know how I could post deviant art pictures here? I found this really cool pictures you guys might like; it's on the topic of the FE7 lords in Fates. I'll post a link here: http://fav.me/d9c0gdx
not really much of a competition no one bought FE9, 10, 11Fire Emblem was before Awakening's release the Fire Emblem best seller worldwide
Just thinking about that poll and the reddit discussion over it makes me incredibly livid. Especially Roy and Eliwood not being up to par with other Elibe lords when some questionables are in other slots, and people rubbing that in a lot. r/fireemblem has repeatedly disappointed me on a lot of things since its creation, /feg/ died years ago and will never return to its former glory, I stopped wanting to post on my Facebook page for FE that was previously active for 4 years and Fire Emblem on Facebook declined in quality a long time ago, serenes forums were always horrible news but at least their front page is always A+, etcetera with emphasis on eh. It's part of why I'm afraid to discuss FE or keep up to date on literally anything going on with FE. All news articles on anything related to FE have been incredibly disappointing. Chrom and Lucina in Project X Zone 2? Tharja figurine and being featured more in Illusory when what it hyped up with all series lords is nowhere to be seen? Illusory Revelations not living up to the hype it created in 2013 at all? I'm trapped, aha. I sometimes wish I could like the popular lords more, or that Awakening resonated much more with me, so that things could be easier with both official representation and headcanon/general fan opinions. I don't really know how to go and don't know if staying's worth it, kind of a ghost state. A deal with the devil where I got into the series years ago and enjoyed it a lot more, but now I'm in Fire Emblem Hell anywhere I go.Wow, really? That makes even less sense for IS to ignore FE7 now.
Nope. He didn't. I have no clue why, I mean Eliwood got a picture, and he's way less popular. He didn't even get top ten in the FE Famitsu poll yet Hector and Lyn did. I guess Eliwood got a picture because he is technically the main character of FE7... I dunno IS is weird.

I feel similar things... Actually, I was more hyped with the Ike and co. Fire Emblem Cipher Cards than the other news.. (Chrom and Lucina in PXZ2 leave hyped for other reasons that the character itself... the Fire Emblem Representation in that Crossover, even if Ike is the only no-Akanea character... please).All news articles on anything related to FE have been incredibly disappointing.

Man, I can relate. Majority of my favorite lords are the unpopular or mediocre ones: Eliwood, Eirika and maybe Roy. The only popular lords I like are Hector and Ephraim. I would have added Lucina, but I don't like her as much as I did back then. Kinda hurts to see that none of my favorite lords aside from Hector and Ephraim made the list. It even hurts more to see people crap on my favorite lords. I have to deal with it though; as ridiculous the hate bandwagoning is for some of these characters, not everyone is going to like the characters I like.Just thinking about that poll and the reddit discussion over it makes me incredibly livid.

Surprisingly, I don't find /r/fireemblem to be that bad. Heck, I've found quite a few Eliwood fans on there. Yeah, the vast majority tend to crap on him and worship lords like Ike or Hector, but they're a nice community. It's not too big, but not too small either. I'm already making a reputation for myself there, lol.
Serenesforest in my opinion was even nicer. Barely saw others crap on each other's favorite characters. Then again, I haven't been on there since 2012 so things may have changed a bit.
Yessss I feel the same way you do about the news. More Awakening and Fates stuff! Yay? I especially am disappointed with SMT x FE. The original trailer had all the lords in it. I was expecting awesome, HD graphics and full blown voice acting for all the lords. Fast forward to 2015 where the first trailer for SMT was shown. My first response was: "What?"It looked more like a new Persona game than a new FE or SMT game. "Oh well," I thought, "Maybe they will reference the older characters somehow." Nope! Turns out they're only adding Awakening and Shadow Dragon characters! Boring, but that's what sells so I'm not surprised. Besides, they're not making the game for me, they're making the game for the newer fans. At least #FE has an original concept? Really wish they at least had gotten rid of the fanservice. Don't like fanservice at all.

This is a very oddly addressed letterdear fire emblem lords they've brainwashed you too

Tell me about it. After Tuesday & Friday classes I always take a nap because waking up before dawn for school ain't my thing. It's like the only time I take naps, strangely enough (unless if I'm really sick). Also, if anyone has some tips on how to create 2-point perspective grids & boxes and 2-point perspective chairs I'd greatly appreciate it. for some reason I'm not accurate with my drawings...Can school count as a feeling?

Other than that, I'm decent. when I actually get time to do things besides study
I feel like a lot of FE fans are stuck in limbo (including myself) nowadays. I won't repeat what's already been said, but I remember a year ago (before the SMT x FE trailer) I said that if IS really wants to explore and expand on the romance/dating sim concept (for whatever reasons) in FE, I'd appreciate a separate spin-off game more. I guess we're kinda getting that in SMT x FE, and although I'm probably gonna get the game, the major focus on Awakening and Shadow Dragon characters is really disappointing. There's a chance we may see Ike and Roy via amiibo though, which would make me feel a bit better. I'll also be happy if we see Merric and/or Camus, but I kinda doubt it.Man, I can relate.

Sorry, but pretty much everything I've played from them has been garbage
They localized the Baroque PS2/Wii remake (which was initially why I bought the game), and it was my first roguelike game. Gameplay itself (especially the combat system) is pretty mediocre, but the story, characters, and atmosphere is like one awesome mind****. A roguelike RPG where you're suppose to die? Sign me up! But yeah, I guess the company will always have a special place in my heart for introducing me to Baroque. I really want to import the original game, but first I need a Sega Saturn... Sometimes I wish the games were more popular because it feels like there's 15 people in the whole entire fandom lol.
I always have a thing for companies that localize niche/obscure games. XSEED is one of my fave also.

How about you?
Dude, I'm not brainwashed. I've played bits of FE7/FE8 before, and Eliwood/Eirika aren't nearly as good as Hector/Ephraim. That doesn't bother me though; I still like them both despite them not being the best units. Whenever Eliwood/Eirika lands a kill, it is very satisfying. Calling lords mediocre is only bad if you also hate the entire character for that reason. I can like things while still admitting their flaws. I think it's healthy to think that way.-}==>mediocre
dear fire emblem lords they've brainwashed you too
I wish you were around during Facebook or /feg/'s primes, I'm truly sorry
the reason I'm really disappointed in what Illusory did is because of the 2013 trailer, they were initially making the game for us and trying to hype us up alongside newer fans
I'm being way too submissive and just pessimistic on this stuff, I gotta cut the cord entirely on FE besides a draft run group I'm in and private discussion with a few close friends.
Yeah, I removed Leif and Sigurd from my original post because not many people know about them to talk badly about them; it made no sense for me to mention them.Unpopular lords?

First of all, that shirtless Roy drawing. Hnnnngh. Isn't he fifteen though? I hope he isn't. He looks older than fifteen in Smash 4. Second, I don't know how the heck people do drawings like that in Miiverse. I can only do head shots because that's all I have room for. Maybe I need to learn how to get creative with composition or something. Unfortunately, there aren't very many good tutorials on drawing in Miiverse, so I have to learn everything from scratch. Perhaps I could show you some of my Miiverse drawings for funsies.Tell me about it. After Tuesday & Friday classes I always take a nap because waking up before dawn for school ain't my thing. It's like the only time I take naps, strangely enough (unless if I'm really sick). Also, if anyone has some tips on how to create 2-point perspective grids & boxes and 2-point perspective chairs I'd greatly appreciate it. for some reason I'm not accurate with my drawings...
On another note, saw this while playing on the Miiverse stage and I totally had to look up the artist after
I feel like a lot of FE fans are stuck in limbo (including myself) nowadays. I won't repeat what's already been said, but I remember a year ago (before the SMT x FE trailer) I said that if IS really wants to explore and expand on the romance/dating sim concept (for whatever reasons) in FE, I'd appreciate a separate spin-off game more. I guess we're kinda getting that in SMT x FE, and although I'm probably gonna get the game, the major focus on Awakening and Shadow Dragon characters is really disappointing. There's a chance we may see Ike and Roy via amiibo though, which would make me feel a bit better. I'll also be happy if we see Merric and/or Camus, but I kinda doubt it.
You know what Fates kinda reminds me of? Rune Factory (I certainly wouldn't make the comparison to the older FE games though). There's just so many life simulation things to do in Fates (cooking, mining, interactions, dressing units up, etc.), and of course there's more otaku pandering. There's a reason why in FE-Amie units blush a lot, act nervous, and have fidgety movements (who are they appealing to I wonder...). I still love the series too much to drop, so I just grin and bear things tbh.
While most of the fanservice-y features are optional in the end, it does show what direction the series is taking. There's a translation of a Fates survey that Famitsu conducted. People commented on the marriage system (some like it, others prefer Genealogy's system). Here's the translation, but SPOILER WARNING!?

Hey look guys! I found Roy!
I actually ended up not getting ORAS, just because the 3d models did not look as pretty as bit models or R/S/E. Is it really that disappointing?I'll grin and bear the series too; I'm still into Pokemon for goodness sakes, even after the disappointment that was ORAS. I just hope that next FE, the anime-ness would be toned down. I like anime, but the cliches commonly found in anime are freaking annoying; I liked FE's somewhat gritty medieval setting. I hardly see that theme in anime/video games without the theme being ruined by otaku stuff.
ylisse is technically the same place because marth or somethingYeah, I read the survey a while ago. The problem with marriage is how poorly implemented it is in Fates. I liked it back when marriage was a one time thing. At least FE7 apparently was one of the games people played the most before Fates. It's the only non Ylisse/Akanaeia(sp?) game on there, yet IS forgets that it exists...
Okay, I found it disappointing because it felt... slow? Like they were trying too hard to embellish it? I also didn't like how they didn't bring back the Battle Frontier. The BF was one of the main reasons why I liked Hoenn to begin with. I prefer X and Y over ORAS for some reason.I actually ended up not getting ORAS, just because the 3d models did not look as pretty as bit models or R/S/E. Is it really that disappointing?

It could just be because I'm burnt out on Pokemon atm, or I overhyped the game, but I found ORAS disappointing for two reasons: It felt a lot slower than the older games, probably due to cutscenes and extra game mechanics. Then there's the fact that they took out the Battle Frontier because Game a Freak thought that the mobile gaming generation wouldn't have the patience to beat it. The BF was one of those things that fixed Pokemon's post game and they got rid of it.ORAS was a dissapointment? In what way?
It pretty much is after SoulSilver my favourite one, I'd really like the reasoning for this statement.
I don't think Roy aged in 4, rather he was finally portrayed correctly. He is short, but not shorter than Marth, which is why his height caught some off guard on his return. He always had wavy hair and was well-built, which wasn't portrayed correctly in Melee or PM. These being easy to overlook may be why people assume he aged, we just don't have an answer. I like to think of his new look as what a true Master Lord class would be.Dude, I'm not brainwashed. I've played bits of FE7/FE8 before, and Eliwood/Eirika aren't nearly as good as Hector/Ephraim. That doesn't bother me though; I still like them both despite them not being the best units. Whenever Eliwood/Eirika lands a kill, it is very satisfying. Calling lords mediocre is only bad if you also hate the entire character for that reason. I can like things while still admitting their flaws. I think it's healthy to think that way.
No need to be sorry. I've had plenty of interesting discussions on FE forums. Sometimes you just have to open up your mind and listen. c:
Yeah, I removed Leif and Sigurd from my original post because not many people know about them to talk badly about them; it made no sense for me to mention them.
I like Atlus, but mostly for Persona and Radiant Historia which looks interesting. Other than that though, I don't really care for the rest of their games. I would've liked their #FE idea better if it were just its own IP; no SMT, no FE just its own thing. It would make things much less disappointing for me.
Yeaaaah had to edit that out. Looked stupid with the rest of my reply, lol.

The thing about #FE is that the concept is actually pretty cool, I just don't like how they represented FE in there. I'm not into Shadow Dragon, and I feel that Awakening is being hyped too much. I like Awakening, but I want the other countries to be represented in #FE. Honestly, I would've been less disappointed with #FE if it were either its own franchise, or if it had better FE representation.

Nils can't retaliate, but he's required for the final chapter and makes it less of a pain, so it's worth having him be Lv20. He gets really dodgy later. His future stat boost rings are neat, too.View attachment 76928
Hey look guys! I found Roy!
Oh how salty I am about Nils, he seems so chill and I really want to use him but... he's a bard... I hate using bards...
Just making sure, there's no way he can fight, right? If there is then I'll totally do that and use him, unless it's like the enemy control glitch in fe8, I don't really like abusing glitches that way. Well at least his sister looks chill, and I have a good feeling that she'll use magic, or at least have some form of attacking. Also Eliwood! I can tell already that I'm gonna love Eliwood
edit:
RIP: my hopes and dreams of not having 2 of my least favourite class in one fe game
OR/AS is definitely a step down from both Emerald as a Hoenn game and HG/SS as a remake. Play Emerald if you're craving for Hoenn, BW2 for GOAT sprite animations, or HG/SS if you want a remake done right.

Oh heck yesWhy isn't this a side event at tourneys
I've never seen it be a true combo, even as clean as this one was I'm gonna doubt it
Does anyone know if Ryu was still in hitstun before the dair connected?
can't tell if you're making fun of me or you actually played the gameOtherwise, I recommend Banner Saga.
Making fun of you, but I'm really excited for when I do finally get to play it.I've never seen it be a true combo, even as clean as this one was I'm gonna doubt it
it is pretty much fatal though, Roy's sweet spot dair is comparable to Ganon's Dair
can't tell if you're making fun of me or you actually played the game
right the first one, got it
It honestly is like my replacement for new FE games at the time beingMaking fun of you, but I'm really excited for when I do finally get to play it.
A buddy showed me the trailer and I've been eyeing it every now and then since. Thank you for reminding me of it again cause I forgot about it and now I'm looking into the soonest opportunity to play it.
