Ah yes, Lorentz, otherwise known as "The Reason I'm Not Going the Golden Deer Route First."

Doesn't help that he has a fairly major role as Claude's retainer.

Considering how the retainers were in Fates, I don't think it necessarily means he'll have a big role.

Unpopular opinion time.

I think that if a character has "strong relations with Nintendo" in terms of their series being almost exclusively on Nintendo platforms, I think that actually hurts them rather than helps them at this point.

Think about it. If the idea is to spread a customer base with DLC, and those games began on Nintendo consoles (as in, didn't already have a reputation for people to flock to the system for them), most of their fans from the start likely already had Nintendo consoles, because by extension they're Nintendo fans.

Compare that to a series with iconic characters that have been on several gaming consoles, and there's nearly no comparison in terms of iconic status, recognizability, and star power. (No offense to any fans of series like that, but it's simply a belief I have on DLC this time around).

Not sure if it's an unpopular opinion, but I'm already missing Kozaki's art.

Yeah, Three Houses has less stupid design decisions compared to Fates, but most of the faces and hair looks super weird and artificial to me.

That's true. However, this time around I'm thinking it'll be a bit different given the smaller cast size among the houses themselves (eight students per house) and the fact that they each only have one retainer as opposed to two.

Just my take, though. Namely because of Hubert, since he's being billed as almost the Soren to Edelgard's Ike.

That makes sense. A small cast is actually one of my biggest fears for this game, since I'd like to be able to competently iron man it. I guess it will likely add more character depth though.

if we were to get a third Street Fighter character, I'd love Sakura to be fair...
I know Chun Li would be next, but still.

Rather not have a third SF character for DLC though. Capcom has too many good IPs to go towards Street Fighter again.

My picks for new Capcom reps would be Dante, Jill or Chris, Wright and Sigma.

Honestly I'm almost certain there will be recruits outside of the school, never mind the houses. I think the house choice will just decide your starting party.

That and the teachers are almost certainly recruitable. They released the bio for Manuela today and her description said that in addition to being a professor, she's also a school nurse and an ex-songstress. I'd put money on her being the game's Dancer.

A Hat in Time's new DLC gives Hat Kid fully-voiced messages for multiplayer.

The worst thing about female Byleth's design is her fish face

everything else is fine

Honestly her face looks much better in the cutscenes. Not sure what went wrong with it in her art though.

My problem with female Byleth's design is that her design does not give off the same personality as her male counterpart. They look like two different characters altogether when they're avatars and should look the same save for differences caused by gender. This is the case with Robin and Corrin, so why it isn't with Byleth is puzzling.

"I think that the key to doing anything like that is to make sure that the other introductory movies are sensational. It’d be a dream to write something like Legend of Zelda, but before you can get to that Smash Bros stage you have to write the best damn version of The Legend of Zelda that you possibly can. And the same with Mario, the same with Kirby, the same with Star Fox. Avengers: Endgame is only as good as it is because we loved all of those characters individually, so when it came together it was just magic. And I think that’s how you have to approach the Smash Bros."

and with this, they've shown that they already understand cinematic universes a hundred times better than DC

Is the game out on Switch already?

Maybe I’ll pick it then, since I liked Yooka Laylee.

Unfortunately not. It's probably gonna get news next month at Nintendo's Direct, though.

I just hope that consoles will get Nyakuza Metro. GfB have been really weird when it comes to addressing that.

More power to you, then. I just can't see anything in her design that is that works better than her male counterpart and her outfit has way too many cuts.

You think that a potential art for her in FE Heroes could improve her look?

I’ll try to hope for that at least.
