nyainou Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) Fates was announced roughly 9 or 10 months ago, and it doesn't seem like the game will have its NA release until the spring. Thats more or less a whole year of waiting for Fates. My question to you guys is, are you still excited? I am. I swear checking SF every single day and reading up the forums is the only thing keeping me sane. Im not gonna give in and look up lets plays though, I wanna enjoy my first playthrough on my own.To those of you who imported, do you think in spite of having already played the game youll still play and enjoy the NA release? Thats a lot of money to churn out for a game. But if you have it, why not spend it? Edited September 28, 2015 by lordcorrin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex95 Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I can only vote for one of them, but it says I have to vote for both. Think you can possibly fix that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybe Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) i'm sorta looking forward to it but at this point it's mainly just for the gameplay and music and stuff after learning that the story and a lot of the supports are kinda terrible my enthusiasm for those has greatly dropped although watching streams of the game increased my hype a lot Edited September 28, 2015 by maybe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryo Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) I'm playing the JPN copy, but I'll still buy the localized version. However, I won't purchase all three paths on each copy to save money. For your question, I'm still hyped for the gameplay and is still enjoying it very much. The other aspects, not so much, but let's just leave it as that... Edited September 28, 2015 by Ryo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) I'll get more hyped once I see more English footage. Like you, I have not looked up any playthroughs of the game. I've only seen the E3 Treehouse footage, as well as the Vanguard DLC map. That's pretty much it; I don't want to ruin my experience with this game like I did with Awakening by watching an LP. Though I am disappointed to hear that the story wasn't all that it was made out to be, I still want to see how the localizers interpret and translate the story and supports.

NinjaMonkey Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 My hype for this game fizzled out months ago, when I watched some guy on Twitch stream the entire Nohrian campaign, and saw how absolutely shit the gameplay is. Needles to say, I won't be buying this game whenever it releases here in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you have it, why not spend it? http://www.gamestop.com/wii-u/games/xenoblade-chronicles-x-special-edition/125408 Yes. Since were getting Xenoblade Chronicles X on Dec 4th 2015. Which I'm absolutely hyped for that...too. This will prove that well get it by Spring. I'm playing the JPN copy, but I'll still buy the localized version. However, I won't purchase all three paths on each copy to save money. For your question, I'm still hyped for the gameplay and is still enjoying it very much. The other aspects, not so much, but let's just leave it as that... I'm only getting the Conquest game and downloading the other two paths. Because Nohr rules. I'll be getting the English game as well to help out the sales of Fire Emblem and plus it's translated officially. :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gayserbeam Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I bought the game on JP release and have played over 300 hours but I'm still psyched for the English version. I just really want to see what changed. It's funny; I go into threads about censorship or supports or dialogue and see people saying "I hope they don't change that!", but from my perspective I'd be happy if every character was completely reinterpreted. I just really want to see what they do with all this, as I've already played the original to death. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The DanMan Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 My hype for this game fizzled out months ago, when I watched some guy on Twitch stream the entire Nohrian campaign, and saw how absolutely shit the gameplay is. Needles to say, I won't be buying this game whenever it releases here in the UK. Are you one of those people who hates things because they're popular? Because as many complaints there have been directed towards this game, gameplay is definitely not one of them; heck, it's generally cited as some of the best in the series. As for the question, still looking forward to it but not really hyped. Put that up to crap writing and fanservice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurrin Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I am EXTREMELY hyped. Of course it sucks that there will probably be at least 4 or more months until its NA/EU release, but I'm kind of OK with that thinking about it now. I'm hoping that the long wait will give me enough time to try to forget about some of the major points that have been spoiled. It's not a big deal though. Either way, the hype is still strong. I totally can wait until next year. *eye twitch* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimeanRoyalKnight Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I can't vote for the poll, but... I'm not really hyped, I was before I saw all of the leaked content before the game was even released. It was very exciting and a rather nice internet experience. Now, I still really want to play the game, but I can't consider myself hyped lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambulz Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I'm far less excited than I used to be, but I think I'll still be happy to have the game when the time finally comes around. You know what would stir up some more hype in me, though? New English release news/footage. Wouldn't it be nice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gomez_Addams Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I want to say I'm super hyped, but the poll won't let me. Very biased poll, if you ask me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riolumaster Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I've watched multiple playthroughs, I've been spoiled both accidently and on purpose and I'm still (mildly) hyped for the release. The only thing that's keeping me from being "super" hyped is the fact that I know some of my favorite aren't very good. 2016 can't get here fast enough...

Shadowess Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) mmm I guess I'm more mildly hyped, but I'm still very eager to play it at some point. Also there's a glitch or something because I keep trying to vote but it says I have to vote for every question, even though there's only one. Unless I'm being an idiot and not seeing something lawl.

SSbardock84 Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Ever since the first trailer came out I've been super hyped and its never died down. I can't wait, I'm always excited for a new Fire Emblem game. I just hate waiting so long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radiant head Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Poll is messed up. But yeah "not feeling it anymore" sounds about right. Hopefully there's a demo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topaz Light Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Before reading this, please understand that I've little to no familiarity with Fates' gameplay- at least, in regards to how it differs from previous installments- and so I can't speak to that one way or the other. Nothing I say here is directed at the gameplay elements of the game. I was super hyped for a long time. Seeing the initial trailer for the game in a Nintendo Direct kinda gave me the same feeling as waking up on my birthday, or on Christmas, or really the morning of any celebration that involves present-giving. Unfortunately, the game seems to have taken after and "built upon" Awakening in some of the worst possible ways... at least, for my personal tastes. I haven't seen much evidence to suggest that the writing quality of the main plot is too far above Awakening's in any route, the characters seem to still be largely static and "gimmick-centered" in the same way as Awakening's were, and I don't really have a lot to say about the... ahem... gratuitous... fanservice elements that hasn't already been said, but any negative sentiment towards them you can think of, I probably share. Honestly, the game in a lot of ways doesn't feel like Fire Emblem to me... or at least, it seems to have lost a lot of what I personally like about the series. I'm not sure if I'd go so far as to deliberately not buy it out of spite, but I am seriously having second thoughts about whether or not it would actually be worth the ~$80.00~ USD for the full package. If you're looking forward to the game and think it looks fun, then more power to you, and I hope you have a great time with it! I'm just starting to think that maybe it's really not my cup of tea.

NekoKnight Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I might play on my sister's copy but I probably won't purchase another copy myself. I already have the gameplay for my Japanese version and the story is best left unsaid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyanko Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I'm still looking forward to it, but they sure did a lot to destroy my excitement for the game. They messed up Nohr's plot, I can't get the servant I want from the beginning of the game due to the ridiculous reason of gender-locking and have to wait sixteen chapters just to get him, they forced one of my favorite characters into role of being foolish for the sake of their idiotic story, I've heard they force KamuixAqua down the player's throat, they didn't follow up on the theme of family that I was so stupid enough to get excited for, etc. At least it sounds like they did well with the gameplay. I'll enjoy it for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
