You get no Sympathy in a "Fire Emblem Discussion"

[Niko Mar]

You know that the black knight's armor could only be pierced by a weapon such as the ragnell...... that's why.

I want lyn playable, but it would be cool to see other FE assists from the past FE's before 7.

I'm getting tired of all the avatar characters that could be playable, mii, robin, wii fit trainer, villager, etc. I want some personality man.

Villager is okay though, and Wii fit trainer is here to stay, but come on 2 more? why?

I agree on more past FE assist trophies (like maybe Sigurd, Leif, Seliph, or Alm), and also that having Robin would be kinda much with all the other likely "avatar newcomers."

Also what are you talking about? He obviously died because he disobeyed the triangle . That whole segment and plot point was a giant tutorial .

Even if he used a freaking lance he would have died.

He didn't die because of the triangle.

And why does FE NEED to represent the weapon triangle? Sakurai can pick whatever he likes.

Unless it was a magical lance .

If memory serves there is no blessed lance, so no. (seriously play RD miss ashera. )

and don't bring up awakening's "blessed lance"

 

[FlareHabanero]

Personally I wouldn't want five Fire Emblem characters to begin with in any event. Makes it immensely less likely the rest of the product will be good if we are just throwing characters in like that.

Mind you, if Fire Emblem traded places with Mario or something, that would be different.

I wouldn't mind five Fire Emblem characters if they got the proper amount of diversity, aka not all expies.

I do find it weird how people are so hard pressed with numbers, if a character offers something positive then it shouldn't be a problem.

Isn't this one (I remembered it from FE7): http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Maltet

I would play RD, if I could fine a copy that isn't $10000000
I'll have to check around for one, so I can fight Ahersasha......

Or I could play more FE7 .

You think Greil cares about something as insignificant as that? He would throw continuity out the window and get both that lance and Ephraim's Seigmund to dual wield the hell out of BK.

He doesn't care about the weapon triangle, so why should he care about the fabric of space and time.

It's a matter of development time. I don't like big rosters in general.

Because Greil has no idea how to even use an outrealm gate, now shush.

Btw guys, how about who you'd pick for a Fire Emblem fighting game (in a smash bros fashion) that consists of 24-30 characters?

Would you try to represent all the series? Would you pick depending on the popularity of the games?

If you guys want, shoot up a list .

 

[FlareHabanero]

This is more so a hypothetical sense, not a reality sense.

Like, if there were five Fire Emblem characters, it shouldn't be a problem as long as there isn't a sense of redundancy.

With everyone but Elincia, you should have a good idea of what I want. Diversity, as well as wide series representation.

Not sure if I have ever had an Elincia moveset, but she would be a whole new breed of sword user, with heavy emphasis on FAST aerial play and staff utility. In addition to a double jump, she would have a fast directional airdash, and a lot of multi-hitting strikes to reflect the Crimean family royal treasure: Amiti. Warp/Rescue, Silence, Warding, Torch and a number of other staves could all make for fun Special ideas.

Just FE characters?
1. Lyn
2. Marth
3. Roy
4. Ike

Speaking of which, I do find that interesting.

Many characters within Awakening imply that the Taguel are descendents of the laguz, and that the laguz still exist. In the DLC, Sothe did not want to fight Panne outright stating she is laguz, and he would wish to find out more instead. As far as fan speculation goes, it could even be said the Brand of the Exalt could simply be a brand, period. Thus far we have not had any genealogical information on how being branded carries over into a long bloodline. In the desert near Begnion, we have a colony of branded, and many of them are simply the descendants of other branded, so the "branded" features sticking around would make sense. Two half-beorc!half-laguz branded produce off-spring, there is still the same amount of laguz blood.

Though the Exalted bloodline has not necessarily been breeding with other potentially branded individuals, and probably not any laguz either, so one would imagine that the laguz blood would run thin. Would the extended life span be all but deteriorated by now? Going further, are the manakete simply the descendants of the Goldoan dragons? Panne, Henry and Nowi all suggest there are other laguz out there.

Seliph and Leif's recruiting conversations imply that the Mark of Grima, and by extension the Brand of the Exalt, are the same as the brands that come from possessing Holy Blood in Jugdral. Don't think they'd be brands like the branded in Tellius, since those with Holy Blood aren't actually biologically related to the Dragon they made the pact with, and the twelve crusaders in Judgral didn't appear to have extended lifespans.

No matter who we get, people are gonna get mad

Still holding it for Lucina, though

Hm. :/

At the very least, I love a series that has so many questions to answer and possible plot points floating around. I would love to see if they ever revisit or reference Magvel later, or connect Elibe to the other realms.

Thus far, they are the only two you can't somehow connect to the others, unless I am missing something. I would love if they remade Gaiden and continued the story, and somehow connected the actions of the heroes to some sort of consequence in FE8.

Great list, by the way! Always room in my heart for some Lucina love.

 

[Rouge]

Let's see..... without necessarily being realistic, I would choose:

1. Marth - I wouldn't have gotten into the series was it not for his inclusion in Melee
2. Lyndis - My favorite FE character ever. It helps that she was the first character I ever played as. Through countless replays, I still believe that FE7 is the best game of the series.
3. Hector - I always have get him and Lyn an A support together because they are at their best together. Best axe user there is.
4. Nergal - Continuing with the FE7 heavy bias! Nergal is definitely my favorite final (human) villain there is. At first I was going to put Lyon here, but like I said I played both games countless of times and I find Nergal's tragedy to be much deeper than Lyon's, even though it's not immediately obvious. He's a very compelling character and he would be pretty epic on the battlefield.
5. Ike - Again:

Boatload of Honorable Mentions (mostly characters I like the most):
Roy, Dieck, Fae, Lloyd/Linus tag team, Limstella, Geitz, Ephraim, Seth, Joshua, Marisa, Jill, Nephenee, Innes, Elincia, Tibarn, Black Knight, Nolan, Nailah, Sully and Tharja.
