She's hardly in any history map conversations either. Even the bonus ones (she's in one unless she shows up in the Awakening pack). Granted, Lyn at least got one I think, but maybe they like her more. Lianna got none and Rowan got one through the entire DLC, and they're the OCs for the game. This isn't some scheme against Lucina. Some characters simply got more focus for the DLC than others. Maybe it is dev favoritism, but I doubt it's malicious like you seem to think.

Why go from an interesting name to something completely boring and generic? Now I have even less interest in this pack... Consistency, I guess. All of the names in Japanese are a 3 part name: Character's Name + Some Descriptor + Type of Weapon. Localization turned them into character name + weapon, but I'm not sure why. I suppose judging by the datamine, the original intent was to use the descriptor instead but they changed their minds for some reason. Maybe they didn't want you to think that "Cruel Bow" would do something different from "Lucky Bow" or that "Healing Axe" would, like, heal you? e: To be clear they got truncated probably for character limits, but it seems like it'd be better to chunk off the character name isntead.

Good grief, she didn't get one with her own cousin. It may not be malicious, but it's absurd to snub her when so many people like her. Also, not liking other characters doesn't mean they like her.

At this rate I'm surprised they gave her the bride costume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, if they had to just shorten the names because of character limitations, I don't have any idea why they wouldn't have just gone with Armored Axe, Healing Axe, and Lovely Lance.

Like, again, the only thing I can think of is they didn't want you to think these weapons has extra, secondary effects? Like yu'd expect the armored axe to maybe dull damage? It's weird,if they ever do a sequel they should change that up. Add some spice! Likewise it's weird they changed cordelia's weapon from the Gungnir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While we're talking about missed opportunities, they should have had a Chrom and Tharja support. I really don't like her, but so long as she isn't in stalker mode, it might have been interesting. Also, Ceada with any of the Ylissean royals. They're her descendants too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doof Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I myself am so giddy with myself at being able to play with Owain, Chrom and Robin shirtless I don't care about anything else now this game is perfect for me <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur97 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Chrom and Owain with Chrom as the lead's dual warrior dialogue is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohh yeah that's another disappointment, Chrom & Tharja support was another of my wishlist, and yeah Caeda should have had a support with Owain to mirror the Lucina & Marth one or with Lissa to begin with. I'm still mad that Owain didn't get one with Lucina ):<. Also Tharja & Leo would've been something. One good thing is that at least the DLC SD characters finally got something with Awakening characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doof Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Im glad that even though Owain is a clone, he has a lot of different animations. His Awakening finisher is so badass too! Definitely using him over Ryoma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florete Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 That is definitely Karen Strassman on Olivia, no doubt in my mind. I bumrushed to Tharja on her map hoping I could hear her name, and she never says it. Looks like I need to get supports...or go to GameFAQs, which I did, and apparently the J in her name is pronounced the same as in Rhajat, so a soft J or "zh" sound. Damn, I've gotten so used to saying "Thar-ya." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandy Druid Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) Olivia's antics are pretty cute, ngl. Although the voice gets annoying. It's a shame she doesn't have a support with Chrom, but her Xander support should be interesting. 5 hours ago, r_n said: Oh wow, Olivia is crazy weak. At level 50 promoted her attack is 38. 38!. She might be the weakest character in the game If you're curious, the rest of her attacks at level 50 promotion: 404 HP 36 Def 33 Res 75 Skill 83 Speed 86 Luck So her shtick is taking advantage of the best stats in the game at the loss of base line strength. I She has a pretty quick moveset, which I think makes up for her lack of strength. Makes sense too, since she's just a dancer, and the majority of dancers in this series aren't good fighters anyways. The only exceptions being Phina and Lene (although they require investment. Olivia too for that matter, but she needs a lot more than the aforementioned 2).

dmurr Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I'm with you @Arthur97, I can't believe Lucina didn't get any supports from this DLC. Blows my mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
