ninty released some english gameplay stuff recently

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DX7Eq8WzBo

this game look sreally weird. its got random encounters and SMT-style dungeon crawling where you can get ambush bonuses and such. but then it just goes into a fire emblem map. its at 3:30 in the video above. some differences i noticed from the trailer:

- skills (called combat arts now) are earned from using a weapon and equipment for a period of time like FFIX. looks like they kept the fates design of no weapon durability (thank god)
- the dungeons
- arrows have a range of like 5 - 6 :staredog:
- no time travelling children, phew
- if somebody dies you can save their soul by traversing a hard dungeon to save them from the underworld or something (not in the trailer I just read about this)

i have the feeling this wont be a great strategy game but as a straight up dungeon crawler with a weird strategy combat system it could be kinda rad. oh also you can rewind time once a battle but im not a Casual.

there's a new phone thing called FaceApp where it shows you yourself as a girl and I look like a cute 90s tomboy lesbian. Not posting it for fear of horny gamers.

Also this game sounds bonkers. I can't wait for archer domination again

might be cool if the maps force you to move around instead of big ol open garbage like all of birthright and 1/2 of awakening :c00l:

This is totally believable based on what I've heard of Japanese companies

wasn't there some guy on the final fantasy team who got assigned to texture a rock and then no one remembered to give him another job? So like there's this one random boulder in FFXII that's just gorgeous

conquest was really good yeah. the only thing i didn't like is like all the bosses toward the end startied having that rend heaven or whatever skill that made them do double damage and triggered like 70% of the time jEeZ lOuise fortunately i could usually one shot them with mozu shooting gold at them

they were making a FE 64 game but it kept getting delayed while the team did other N64 poo poo so the main FE guy made Thracia in the meantime, then he quit and made a really blatant FE clone for PSX that got him sued

the first GBA game (The Binding Blade, FE6) is loosely based on the cancelled N64 game

Eh, New Mystery is probably one of the best games and it's maps are only interesting because of the enemies actually being good on Hard mode. Wide open fields aren't the worst thing ever if the enemies have good weapons/stats.

I really enjoyed Conquest but some of the gotcha enemies with cheap skill setups made me rol l my eyes a bit
