The Elincia power should be randomly given to one of your units without telling you to really hone in on the homage.

All Fire Emblems look like the anime of their era.

Dream of the theoretical 1960s Fire Emblem that looks like Tezuka.

A dude in elaborate scary armor is going to invade his peaceful neighbor for largely insane reasons, he'll be backed up by an evil wizard in a hood, at least one lady minion, and a token good minion who is aware their boss is a psycho but still works for him because ???

There will be people who turn into dragons, and there is a decent chance the penultimate/final boss will be a dragon of some description.

So apparently in Japanese, Zelkov has this "gimmick" of "emphasizing" random words, which makes him sound "more menacing" or "strange", but everyone I've seen talking about this just says it makes him sound like a Jojo character from Part 7.

fe10 would be a much, much worse video game if the dawn brigade was good. they could have done with more chapters so they could keep up in endgame without favoritism but the fact that they're underpowered leads to the most fun gameplay in the series.

Counterpoint: every Part 3 Dawn Brigade map feels like poo poo because you end up turtling in a corner, wondering desperately why Edward explodes if a cat laguz looks at him funny.

gareth is my favorite completely inexplicable fire emblem character. presumably he was going to be relevant in the cut goldoa arc in fe9 but why did they even bother bringing him back in fe10. why did they make him playable instead of just having him be a midboss in the tower. who is this man. what are his beliefs.

His beliefs are "stand next to Kurthnaga", this is a more coherent motivation than most dragons in the Tellius games let's be real.

i think what modern fe is missing is completely random morons who appear for no discernible plot or gameplay purpose and provide no elaboration. yukimura in fates was a noble attempt but just a touch too coherent. i need a proper caesar or alva.
We need more Interchangable Axe Dudes With The Same Portrait.

Shiny777 posted:

fe10 ena is so bad at every part of being a red dragon other than "stand next to people while having blood tide" it could be argued she doesn't count

Look, all the dragons except for Kurth are terrible at being dragons (in fact, most of the laguz units are frankly terrible at their jobs), Ena is merely a cog in the greater system of late-game Radiant Dawn's "we're really confused as to what we're doing" design philosophy.

i like fe9 a lot but it feels like a vague outline of a plot and then an ending pops out. frankly feel like its the fe most deserving of a remake because it wouldnt require as much of a radical redesign as 4 but still has a lot of room for improvement. 6/7 are relatively complete and 8 doesn't really have much to expand on.

I feel like the fact that they clearly got greenlit to make a sequel midway through Path's development screwed it's plot. So much poo poo is introduced and then ignored as obvious GO OVER IN THE NEXT GAME things.

This isn't even getting into Radiant Dawn's bizarre plot points.

binding blade has 52 playable characters. Blazing blade has 43. Sacred stones has 33. Engage has 36

My theory here is that Engage feels like it has a lot of characters compared to previous games is because 1/3 of the roster isn't a bunch of axe dudes who have two lines at most.
