I sorta hope the Silence is because they are debating on not including a Dragon Loli in this game. Jokes aside I'm sure we will here from them soon enough, in FE's defence a few Strategy games are lined up so they gotta be careful when they drop the information bomb.

I doubt it. If a Team A vs Team B conflict had happened it would have been resolved by now since the game is going to be released this year at least for Japan. They should be in the final parts of bug testing and such at this point for the Japanese release. As well as any last minute localization touches if it does release worldwide or a month or two behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having them sort it out in some kind of video game match, be a Strategy game, or a FPS team game like Battlefield. Winner gets to break the deadlock.

Presentation aside we might get base conversations and more story involvement for most of the cast (if only as side stories) to flesh them out more. That could be another way of "breathing" more life into the characters, but that is more a wish to be honest. 21 minutes ago, MyBoyHector said: You know what would be funny if they having a Team A vs Team B Conflict?

I would love to see Base Conversations again, they gave Jill so much character development in PoR, and built up Tellius too. The side stories idea was explored in Berwick Saga. Four characters: Faye the Myrmidon (with not-Astra), Kramer the young Mercenary, Sylvis the Sniper, and Ruby the Cavalier all got EX chapters unlocked by meeting certain conditions with them, the game is still being translated, but it sounds like it was a good idea.

I was thinking of just having it as paralouges aside of main story missions that open up as you go through the story, or playable memory fragments though. I really don't like it when character information gets locked based on not knowing I was supposed to do something making a guide necessary at some points...

The unlock requirements don't appear that difficult. And you're free to do them whenever until Chapter 13- the third to last mandatory chapter. Just build up the relevant character's Happiness and their level. And in addition: a view an event in the city you reside in between battles for that character, keep someone important to them alive as well, and in the case of Kramer, talk to him with the main character once in his joining chapter. These aren't hard things and if you like and use the character, you should get them no problem. Nothing really obscure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well considering its a dynasty warrior type game, I'm sure they were limited, but if you go back to a standard FE strategy game, Im sure they can pull off even better graphics. This is an example of the sprite version from warriors, very lively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt FE Switch will have to have as much crap onscreen at a given time as a Warriors game, so I do have higher expectations for that game's character models. Alternatively, I don't think I would mind them experimenting with more unconventional artstyles, if they're looking for other ways to make the game look "beautiful".

The base conversations focusing on Jill (and other story scenes) make me really sad that I didn't end up using her beyond to recruit Haar in PoR. I'll need to fix that when I do a second playthrough.

Like say more Anime design, or like Heroes art for example? Suppose you could even go a little old school and go Pencil sketch style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Book Bro Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 I think "Fire Emblem Switch will for sure be announced at [upcoming presentation]" is gonna be this year's Increasingly Nervous Man meme. As far as graphics... There's some debate whether they'll use classic sprites or Tellius style 3D models on the actual maps. Personally, I'm hoping for 3D models. RD already looked good, to me anyway, and now with better hardware and a bigger budget I'm sure they could make some nice looking battles. I love the classic sprites as much as anyone, but I feel like it would be more impressive seeing everything in 3D. For the actual battle models (presumably also for cutscenes), I hope they aren't like Warriors. I agree that the models in that game look too plastic, there's something off there. Something like Xenoblade 2's style would work, graphically speaking of course... NOT design wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One hopes they cut back the fan service by a percentage and put it into more character story/depth by the same percentage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
