Corrobin Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 How big, or how many chapters, do you think FE's console return will be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X-Naut Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Probably around the standard range of 25-30 chapters plus paralogues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuvy Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 41 chapters is the length of the last console game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lau Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Since it'll be on the Switch, I see no reason why it shouldn't be as long, if not longer, than Radiant Dawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectiveToast Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 50 chapters not including paralogues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Of Twilight Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Somewhere around the length of Radiant Dawn's storyline hopefully. That makes for some great story telling and lots of character development, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YingofDarkness Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I'd say about as long as Radiant Dawn plus paralogues since it is a console game. It would give them plenty of time to flesh out the world and characters as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanguard333 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 It's a console one, so somewhere between Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn in length. I'm hoping closer to Radiant Dawn, but, at the same time, I'm also hoping the story doesn't get split into multiple sections, and the longer the story is, the more likely that is to happen. I mean, Awakening wasn't very long and they still basically split the story in three: Gangrel, Walhart, Grima. I'm hoping for one overarching story, like in Path of Radiance, but with more chapters, like in Radiant Dawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason for that is because you can only do so much with one story arc before it becomes stale or gets messy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Dane Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I think it'll be roughly PoR length personally, but we really haven't seen any gameplay or even footage really, so I can't say for sure what the length will seem like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Branniglenn Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Can't say given that we still know nothing about the project. I'm going to make the bold assumption that the next game isn't another Pokemon deal with multiple versions. But that still doesn't tell us how they'll handle paralogues unless they confirm for us that marriage and brats are returning. If they are, I'd say the game should have the standard 26 chapters with about 15-20 paralogues that only serve to recruit a character with no connection to the plot or world. If that's not how they handle side content, then the only alternatives are a feature length game where you have to play every chapter like Radiant Dawn, or a game with short length yet meaningful, abundant side content. We've never seen the latter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandy Druid Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 As long as it takes for us to vanquish the dragon in charge of everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melissa Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Hopefully as long as Radiant Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morian Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 It's going to be endless. Â Nah, this is not Heroes. But I hope it's a very long game, with massive content. If not, and is following the traditional path, then I want an insane amount of replayability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greencapps Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 As long as it needs to tell a good story. I don't want padding and if that means a shorter game with a smaller cast on a smaller scale than so be it. In fact I'd prefer it. I'd rather have a higher over quality game than a long but kinda mediocre one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book Bro Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I don't think the story will be very long. Probably around the length of the 3DS titles. But I do expect there will be more of a focus on post-game, so there will probably be a lot of extras which will significantly increase the total length of the game. Dungeons and side quests may be a part of this, improved from SoV. Which tbh, isn't quite what I want from an FE game, though it is enjoyable to an extent. But as long as the story and characters are good, I don't mind if we don't get another RD size game just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsak Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Long enough to satiate my interest, been waiting long enough! Though on console i expect it to push 40 chapters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazuya Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I expect at least 50 chapters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think the main story might be a tad longer, as they might feel like they need to start off strong on a new console and all that, but their way of making the game last longer will probably not be related to how long the main story is. Hopefully though they'll focus on replayability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The DanMan Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 I'm not expecting anything RD level; probably the standard 25-ish main chapters + paralogues, 30 or so hours for a first runthrough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wissenschaft Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 40 chapters but with a split route based on story choices so about 25 chs with extra replayability. Extra large maps but with save points. What? I can dream. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
