You get no Sympathy in a "Fire Emblem Discussion"

[xXIke-SamaXx]

I always forget that

Spoiler

Robin technically is royalty.

The story as a whole is forgettable, The only thing that I remember are the quirky characters...

 

[•Col•]

There are problems with Eruption, but the color isn't one of them.

I meant that as 'at the very least'..

Yeah, I was already disappointed to see Eruption rather than the Ragnell projectile for a special.. Having it remain the typical orange/red rather than at least changing it to blue to actually SUIT the character is just a complete lack of oversight.

I'm hoping that we're just judging it too early though. For all we know, the actual explosion is blue and who knows? Maybe Eruption actually has some new properties like releasing a projectile/wave or something.

If it functions and looks exactly the same as it did in Brawl though, I honestly would be pretty miffed.

 

[Hong]

It would be cool if it created a secondary area of effect, so that even if you don't get a direct hit, you could get some stage presence and shield pressure. I'm talking along the lines of Metagross' Earthquake in size with a decent enough charge.

 

[Hong]

Lissa will be the new Fire Emblem representative for Smash 4.

 

[True Blue Warrior]

What's your favorite FE discussion memory? Mine is the Roy vs Chrom debates that went on.

 

[Hong]

Ike is cut, guys. Sorry to be the one to tell you this but he won't be appearing in the new Smash Bros. Chrom will be joining Marth this time, just like Roy joined Marth before.

I liked it when FE discussion was reasonable and fun

Spoiler

the joke is that it never was

 

[True Blue Warrior]

Oh, you mean like when people were at each other's throats, debating about Roy and Chrom, right?

Truly, it was a reasonable and good, clean fun for everyone.

Spoiler

And by "everyone" I mean me

 

[Weeman]

Ike is cut, guys. Sorry to be the one to tell you this but he won't be appearing in the new Smash Bros. Chrom will be joining Marth this time, just like Roy joined Marth before.

Patterns matter more than anything, Chrom is replacing Ike just like Greninja is replacing Lucario.

 

[The Light Music Club]

Anybody see how Chrom's VA apparently still hasn't been contacted for Smash Bros. ?

 

[Hong]

Yeah. He's going to be like "I CAN'T ANSWER THAT RIGHT NOW"

No. That doesn't totally give away the fact he has something to hide.

Nope.

Not
at
all.



I get it people are thirsty for information, but this is kind of silly. It is way, WAY better to lie and say "No" than to break an NDA within a season of the game's release. That would be so absurdly stupid. Give Matthew Mercer more credit than that. He's an intelligent guy.

Honestly, I don't get this whole argument about how Eruption should be blue. Eruption is based on Bolganone, it is perfectly fine the way it is. Its weird and unfitting that Ike uses it, but whatever, that doesn't bother me too much.

But if Ike doesn't raise his sword with swirling blue flames around him catching enemies in his attack, then allowing him to perform Great Aether (the "final attack of Radiant Dawn" version) then I'll be annoyed.

I agree, though i still don't think that eruption is a useful move.

 

[JaidynReiman]

Well, yeah, I definitely agree it'd have been better off if Ike got a different move instead of Eruption. But I hate this notion that Eruption MUST have blue flames. That should be his Final Smash, but Eruption matches up perfectly with Bolganone. Making Bolganone blue would clash with the original setup.

Well yes i mean it's called eruption, so it's supposed to resemble magma (like bolganone) and i don't think that lava is blue. Now with that said i definetly hope that his final smash stays and it's flashier than ever, complete with the blue falmes or course.

I won't mind it staying, but the intro should change I think. Make the intro almost identical to the cutscene right before Ike attacks the Radiant Dawn final boss where Yune grants Ike all her power (perhaps without Yune appearing). Anyone within range of Ike will get caught in the flames, then he throws them into the air and performs Great Aether as normal.

Let's not make Yune appear, you know so she and Micaiah can be playable.

I admire your resolve.

I never liked bologna.

Currently the dream is still alive.

Then you big baby man *nom nom nom*

 

[Hong]

Currently the dream is still alive.

If by some miracle she actually appears, I'll be happy with you. ^~^

 

[JaidynReiman]

Micaiah as an AT or as part of Ike's Final Smash is about the best you can hope for, unfortunately. Ike already represents the Tellius games and its a disservice to other FE universes if we get two Tellius playable characters, as much as I think the Tellius games are probably the best in the series (of the ones I've played, I haven't played Awakening).


If Micaiah is playable I wouldn't mind it at all. I just don't think it'll happen.

 

[Weeman]

All i'm hoping for is for robin to be the fourth FE rep.

 

[JaidynReiman]

Fourth? Who do you think the third will be?

 

[Morbi]

Fourth? Who do you think the third will be?

Perhaps he was counting Roy as the second representative of Smash Brothers? It seems logical.

 

[The Curious Volnutt]

Now's as good a time as ever. How do you pronounce bolganone, myrmidon, and manakete while we're at it.

 

[Hong]

Lissa will be the only new Fire Emblem character we get to play as.

 

[Weeman]

Fourth? Who do you think the third will be?

Come on guys, why does everyone forget about kellam? He's been in all the Potd so far.

 

[The Curious Volnutt]

[JaidynReiman]

Perhaps. (Heck, I think its even possible we might get Roy back. Slim chance, but he and Mewtwo are the only cut characters people really want back.)

 

[Hong]

Now's as good a time as ever. How do you pronounce bolganone, myrmidon, and manakete while we're at it.

Bolganone: Boll-Gan-Non (the e is trying to fool you) It's like Bull-Gannon, if that helps.
Myrmidon: Mirr-Mid-Don
These two I am sure, given they are based on existing language.

Manakete: This is fun. If it's all based on the Japanese "Mamukuto", I would say "Manna-Keh-tey", but there is some reason to believe localization wants us to say 'Manna-Keet", like parakeet. The translation "mamukoot" was probably never meant to be found, though, so go with the first one.

 

[Robert of Normandy]

Now's as good a time as ever. How do you pronounce bolganone, myrmidon, and manakete while we're at it.

Since some older fan translations translated the spell name as "Volcannon*", I assume Bolganone is pronounced similarly.

For myrmidon, see here.

And IDK at all about Manakete.

*Volcannon should be the official translation. SO MUCH COOLER SOUNDING.

Good I've been pronouncing myrmidon correctly this whole time, Bolganone also.

I thought ganon was a boar

 

[Hong]

I bet everyone thinks I'm trolling when I say Lissa is going to be a playable character. I hope you are all ready to be wrong.

Yeah. Just like yer mum.

Hong confirmed for Sakurai alt

 

[jaytalks]

For music, I hope that FE gets a medley and has FE4's awesome End of Despair in it. Or for the theme itself to be remade.

Also, predicting the Tactician to revealed: The Tactician tips the scales!

As well as a Lucina and Chrom AT.

 

[Thane of Blue Flames]

I throw in my lot and my sword with Lucina.

I shall bear my mocking with dignity should the worst come to pass, and my righteous smugness with fury should my prayers be answered.

Let our quarrels be stilled anon. War is upon us, and I bid you all fare well.
