The people that put her in that spot are all objectively wrong.
You're right in the wrong fashion.

Morgan is still the best overall daughteru and should be number 1 but nope everyone has to love :4marth: with **** and generic tsudere girl #244.

MYSTERIOUS FIGURE CONFIRMED!

Yep, calling it now, it's Robin's evil-parallel-clone-twin, Nibor. Take the hood off and it's just Robin with a goatee.



Also am I going crazy or is this Elise's DEATH SCENE right here?! *blip*
Image is broken but I know what you are referring too. And yeah, most likely is her death scene, which I'd have to guess would happen on the Hoshido route. This realization is actually make me feel rather horrible, with the likely hood of her (and Sakura on the Nohr route) really hitting me harder than the possibility of other character deaths. Mostly because I have younger siblings...

other m is better than this.
That is a bold-ass statement to make about a game that isn't even out yet.
this is like if valve, after all these years released a ****ty mobile game and calling it half life 3.
How? The game doesn't have a 4 in its title, it isn't directly continuing the story from where Metroid Prime 3 stopped (to our current knowledge at least). It's probably going to be a simple spin-off title that will be released in order to expand upon the Galactic Federation's role in the Metroid universe, a very underdeveloped element of the series' lore. Would I have preferred a Metroid Prime 4 or new 2.5-D Metroid? Absolutely, but this game's existence doesn't mean we won't get that. In fact, going off of the more recent interviews, it seems this game is leading up to one of those two things (probably the former).

Also, while there are quite a few differences between this scenario and the one I'm about to mention, the last time I recall fans getting this angry over a new Metroid game was at E3 2001...That led to one of the greatest games ever made.

Ok.
Hoshido classes look simply stunning.
Also, Puppetmaster? Oh god.
I may end up getting Hoshido first after all.

Also, no Aqua anywhere.
Hmm.
Well, one of the 5 confirmed "neutral" characters (aka, is on both routes) is a nina, who promotes to a Puppetmaster.

Speaking of which, am I the only one who is kinda miffed that 4 of those 5 have Nohr classes, being a Bulter, a Maid, an Great Knight, and a Cavalier? I really hope there are going to be a couple more neutral characters with Hoshido classes to even things out, or at the very least have those 4 be able to reclass into at least 1 tree of Hoshido classes.

I don't know about that. Nah was ranked second to last of the female Awakening kids at this popularity poll. Unless Hoshido is getting the lowest voted Awakening kids, then expect lookalikes of Nah, Kjelle, Yarne, and Laurent.
Well, that'd seal the deal of which version I buy first Nah best child
Definitely liking Hoshido's character design more so far, I'd miss on blonde Gaston, but ehhh...Too bad Nohr will likely have the better maps, but I'll eventually get one or the other used anyways.
Camilla's japanese voice creeps me out.

Well some sharp eyed people at Serenes Forest were able to catch this in the Fates trailer: http://serenesforest.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=54666

It seems this hooded figure might be the true antagonist.
Is this the Fates version of Grima-possessed Robin?

Star Fox 0 and Fire Emblem: Fates

Pretty much it.
And the release date of Xenoblade Chronicles: X!
That is one of the more important announcements!

Where's Diddy Kong?

I do agree that the reaction to Federation Forces is a bit over-exaggerated, though I can't say I blame them. Hell, I was pretty salty once I saw the reveal but I'm over it now.

Expectations are extremely high after Other M's polarizing existence, and especially so when this new game bears the name Metroid Prime in the title, which is considered in very high regard. Not having a Metroid game in 5 years (or 8 years for a good Metroid game) doesn't help either.

Honestly, I think the negative reaction is more so because of the way it was presented. The Troopers are all chibi-like and everything looks so colorful and it just doesn't mix with the art style and atmosphere that Metroid has created throughout the years. That soccer game, or whatever it is, also feels like it was slapped into Metroid for no reason as well.

It doesn't look, nor feel like a Metroid game to many, and I think that's where all the negativity is mostly coming from. If they had announced that a main Metroid game is being worked on as well, I think things wouldn't have been as negative.

I don't hate the game but I don't like it either. I'm pretty ambivalent on it, but I do understand where the hate comes from.

Just some random thoughts~ :3

Cause Xehanort can't just f*ck with one universe, he has to f*ck with them all!
Also someone on Serenesforest pointed out how his dark magic seems to be the same thing as Aqua's injury when she says "Don't look at me, please." riiiiiiight here! *boop*

And yes I know exactly how you feel. I have two younger siblings.

This is unexpected. Maybe during the story you subjugate the entire other kingdom, forcing the ruler to join your side so you can all go take down Mysterious a-hole!

I got to the point where they summoned the 2 idols to attack the Gangrel-esque being. I can't, this game is just...no. I'll stick with Persona 5 and FE Fates thank you very much. I do love how Nintendo said on twitter this wasn't a crossover between both series though, as if it wasn't obvious enough at this point.

Well, I am going to play all 3 anyways, so...

I am currently thinking my order will be... Nohr (Hard/Classic) --> Hoshido (Lunatic/Classic) --> 3ed Route (Lunatic/Classic)

This totally legit diagram from IS themselves will explain everything!

Nohr = Classic FE fans

I'm still at awe that Mario & Luigi Paper Jam is happening.
Like, that was the game other than Starfox that grabbed my attention the most.

Where do you think you're going, Sophia?

I love it how people compare this to Persona. Persona was never this stupid even with a dog summoning monsters and a bear mascot who makes s*** puns. I wouldn't ever feel embarrassed playing Persona, I'll feel embarrassed playing that

I loved the idea of Mario and Luigi crossing over with Paper Mario because those are two great rpg series.

Then the title came out and spawned this wonderful piece of art.

Persona is an entirely different style IMO, people just compare it due to the anime character design and probably because Persona grew really popular these last 3-4 years.

I think it's because of Dancing all Night that people had that stigma of Persona. Because the Arena games and Q didn't do all of that despite being spinoffs.

DAN was the problem because we want the idol rhythm game money or Nanako was a mistake

I say both

I really like Sestuna and Asama's design. It almost seems that Nintendo caught wind of the Nohr support and is trying to make Hoshido appealing as well. :p

I just want some damn neutral characters who are Hoshido specific classes. All the ones right now are Nohr, so it will be nice to know if I'll both routes will get the same variety of unit types.

Do you have ANY proof whatsoever to back up this claim? I'm legitimately curious.
From what I could glean through the internet, he has no proof other than speculation.

My brother might be madly in love with Hinoka right now (he might have a huge thing for red heads). #WaifuWednesday

Even if I want to be on Team Hoshido, buying two Hoshido games would be quite inefficient.

Then I realized that no matter which side I choose.

I get to bang Cyrus.

So I guess Nohr is okay. :^)

I've been switching between the two sides since the announcement of the game, I'm still on the fence about which one I will get first.
