So we all have the big stuff we want FE14 to change, like the maps and some balance stuff, but what are the smaller stuff that if they don't change, sure whatever, but it would be neat? For example, I for one love Mastermind in Awakening, but the problem in FE games and the special boss themes (but fixed in the normal battle themes thanks to the Ablaze versions) is that since battles are so short, you don't really get to hear the themes. So I say, once you engage the boss, have the theme keep playing for the rest of the chapter until the boss is beaten.

Or hell make it go 15 chapters. stretch that poo poo. Exactly, or as I said the exact same mechanical function as sacred stones.

Just loot from Super Robot Wars a theme not ending until a new theme starts playing. I.E. if I attack the boss, the boss theme starts playing, and then it goes to the map, keeps playing, and keeps playing as I keep attacking the boss, if I break off to attack some mook, it stops and the regular battle theme plays. As for minor changes... Hmm... I wouldn't mind the return of the animation system from FE5, where the fighting isn't just "Move, attack, move back"

Manatee Cannon posted:At least he's not Knoll. Hang on... There we go. And Void, Knoll's awesome little Phantom minion, is definitely cool. He dodged death at least 50 times, and if I recall correctly he had a double digit kill count by the end of Blastinus's LP. (I have literally started calling Knoll's Phantom "Void" in my playthroughs now; he's got no official name, so "Void" is good enough for me.) fade5 fucked around with this message at 17:40 on Jan 22, 2015 |

I got the impression that MU in FE14 would be the prince of one of the nations, or something, though we only saw MU as prince(ss) of the eastern one.

Actually, speaking of music, do we know if Rei Kondoh and Hiroki Morishita are coming back? The Awakening OST was great, and considering Rei Kondoh also worked on Okami, it'd be a perfect fit for the east vs west thing.

I wonder who they're going to bring in for voice acting this time, since Awakening managed to bring in some pretty big names on that front.Onmi posted:I didn't. It seems to me that captain blond and samured are the respective lords. Eh, we got that one scene where some Validar-lookalike was telling MU "lol as expected, the prince is a naive one" or something.

But yeah, MU in FE14 seems like they'll be a lord of some kind. At least a noble. The scene of the maids waking Kamui up is in first person, like the scene of Lissa and Chrom waking Robin up.

i kinda hope the story doesn't have multiple paths. as much as i like fire emblem its still a long-rear end jrpg and i'm not looking forward to playing those more than once. i also don't like having units that i can miss out on just because i chose a different path.

If it's a long rpg, I can complete it far easier on a portable system than a PC or console. On the VA front, 8-4 seems to have access to the entire VA industry unlike a lot of translation companies it seems. Ironically Troy Baker?

i could see the avatar being the prince/princess of some small but strategically significant kingdom between the two warring nations, or something like that.

epitasis posted:I kinda hope no developer ever caters to your bad-brained gameing I dunno, Sacred Stones fit his needs pretty well while providing variety for multiple runs. He'd get all the same units with the same base story and endgame, but the way he got those units and story was different through different maps, recruitment locations and methods, etc. You don't miss anything by picking Erika's route over Ephraim's or vice versa other than how a little bit of the plot is presented and the challenge of the map set you didn't choose. It was like a bigger version of how you don't feel the need to replay Fire Emblem to see the two maps where the route split based on lord level and whatnot.

I beat Awakening's story in 35 hours, that ain't a long-rear end jrpg by anyone's definition. A long-rear end game, maybe, but not a jrpg.

The longest fire emblem would probably be 7 I guess if you add up all three routes.

jrpgs are not games i want to play more than once. i want to experience everything it has in one go and then never touch it again. most fe games are good for this because usually the only thing you can miss are some supports, which awakening improved further on by only limiting s supports. its cool that other people like to play them multiple times but that's not what i'm looking for, that's all i'm saying. i don't think that's an unreasonable opinion

A single playthrough of Radiant Dawn is probably the longest, though I think 12 comes pretty close. It depends on how you define it though, by chapter length or average completion time or turns or what. I always spend a lot of time loving around with crafting in 9/10 though, so...

It's still a dumb opinion, regardless to wish to retard a game just for your sake. Pretend it's just one route in your mind.

The avatar being the main lord would be weird, now that I stop to think that might be a possibility.Endorph posted:It's not the exact same as the one in the CG scene but there's a shot of a golem in combat. Presumably monster classes from FE8 are making a return.

Male Robin and Morgan are dull but their counterparts more than make up for it because they are the best characters.
