The thread where we wait for a new information update from @FireEmblemJP, which is sure to happen any time now.
>>742821796Would she be an imouto dragon for Cai?
>>742821796cute sand dwagon
>>742821796Dune Dragon
>>742821796Finally, a thread that doesn’t reek of nyople
>>742822305>nyoplelike the artist?
>>7428217961 hour to go... (maybe, I said the same thing yesterday and nothing happened)
What I seek is a great a great updateunending updates for every retainersheer updates, to uphold the cope I hold dearabove all, I need an update to convince my peopleupdates enough for $580
>>742822407Intern-kun wouldn't leave us hanging for 2 days straight (except for that time he did).
>>742822407This time, for sure.
>Caramel Komodo threadNoice. Anyway, let's talk weapons triangle. We know that class restrictions, durability, and combat arts are all back. Do we think that we'll get a traditional weapons triangle? Maybe even a magic triangle?
>>742822712>Do we think that we'll get a traditional weapons triangle?im pretty sure thats already confirmed to not be here
More like NIGGER's Weave.
Name a single time the magic triangle has actually mattered
>>742822712>durabilityIt only applies to magic from what it looks like. Weapon durability for weapons isn't a thing unless you use a combat art.
>>742822826Seer's Snare mode of Heroes.
>>742822712None of the screenshots or videos of combat have shown the visual indicators associated with WT
>>742822826I JUST WANT MORE MAGIC
Fire emblem
>>7428229634chan's weeb
I hope Pirate Waluigi has a good name, otherwise I’ll keep calling him Pirate Waluigi
>>742822952>Engage didn't have an ice tomeIt felt dirty.>>742822963Fortune's Weave
>>742821796They're nogging the Manakete's now? Gross.
>>742822712We have 6 confirmed weapon classes (Sword, Axe, Lance, Bow, Magic, Gauntlets) so I fully expect them to just copy 3H and have two weapon triangles
>>742822937I wonder how that's going to work. Will reaching 0 durability actually break the weapon? Or just make you unable to use combat arts for the rest of the map, making it work the same as magic.
>>742822785Only actual black here is Yasuke guy in Leda route and Black armored guy in Cai route tho.
why would I not spam combat arts constantly
Fuck off.>>>/vg/
>>742823075>so I fully expect them to just copy 3H and have two weapon trianglesThree Houses didn't have weapon triangle at all.It just used weaker versions of the Breaker skills.I didn't even notice until after I did all four playthroughs.Engage doesn't have it either, outside of Emblem Leif. And neither did Echoes. So it's been gone (bar spinoffs) since 2017.
>>742823102It'll probably be like how 3H did it where you're just left with a broken weapon that has dogshit stats until you take it to a blacksmith and get it repaired.Honestly don't mind the change because you had to do that so often in 3H that it just turned into yet another chore you had to do each time you went back to the monastery.
>>742823168You'll break your weapon
>>742823168enemy phasesave weaponsalready killing without artsno good arts available
>>742823241just buy more, money is almost never an issue in fire emblem
>>742823168Combat Arts are expensive as fuck now.
>>742823102>>742823240Hopes did it and just had durability as ammo, basically MP like in a Final Fantasy game. You could find whetstones around the map to give durability back mid-mission, but it would grow back between missions. And it didn't nerf stats when you hit 0/45.I can see them charging for repairs, but I dunno if they'll do stat nerfs.
>>742823380dont weapons have like 60 uses?
>>742823215Engage's break mechanic made me actively think about the weapon triangle so I quite liked it.
>>742823168It's a Kusakihara game so spamming combat arts will be the meta.
>>742822963Blonde girls!
>>742823529Yeah, but it's not the same. Especially since break has tons of ways to inflict it. A smash weapon hitting a guy into a wall isn't "weapon triangle."Break can stay, but I also want weapon triangle back.
>>742823529Would Cai be better as Paladin(Elite cavalry) or wyvern rider?
>>742823490The higher the weapon quality, the lower the durability.Iron and Training weapons had 50-60 uses iirc, but the actual good stuff like silver weapons or specialized stuff like longbows only had 20.
>>742823624I want hum to get a fancier chicken
>Last thing an enemy unit sees is a flying armor knight traveling halfway across the map to deliver a lance through their face.How do you counter this as a red unit?

>>742823702Sigurd Louis charging 14+ tiles then sitting there being fucking invincible was always fun
>>742823702
>>742823702Dark magic
i want a character that looks exactly like this
>>742823380+12 Mt is huge, though.
>>742823675i dunno if this will be good long term I feel like doing arts with a bunch of shit weapons will be better
>>742823490Both Cai's Iron Lance and Dietrich's Answerer have 20 uses in the gameplay videos we have seen
The real question is why you won't just spam Cai Blast/Theodora's Rock Throw all the time and just nuke the map with your lord
>>742823951You have to build up your rage meter
>>742823951well im pretty sure you build up to that
>>742823951Due to blaze art gauge being their ult.
>>742823702Close your eyes and pray for a miss.
Enemies better get to use combat arts tooI want competent challenging AI
>>742823879Iron is only 20 in this game? They didn't do something stupid and make every weapon have the same durability, right?
I'm playing Sacred Stones right now and I'm on Chapter 15 and nearly every enemy including Caellach started rushing me turn 1 and after Ephraim arrived, everything else besides Valter started swarming me. Any tips?
>>742824274>I'm on Chapter 15 and nearly every enemy including Caellach started rushing me turn 1What?
>>742824245Since durability is only for combat arts this time, it makes sense they'd all be lower overall.
Praying that Intern-kun is in a good mood and posts the update today
>>742822681>above all, I need an update to convince my people>updates enough for $580S-supports and child units
Need an update pick me up to recover from that absolute thrashing USA took last night.
address him
>>742824738switch 2 quality...
>>742824378Yeah, he comes straight for her.
>>742824859Enemy turn 2 after Ephraim arrives the Myrms, Horses, and Wyverns also start all moving. As said, Valter just seems to chill.
>>742824738if I cant recruit an elephant to my party ill be mildy upset
>>742825019They have those 4 tiles and monster attack icon.Give it up.
You can tell how not desperate 3HRTs are for word of mouth when they're saying things like "let's talk weapons triangle"
im kinda surprised my gf likes engage since she's super hardcore into 3h
>>742825201People can like all fe games
>>742824859He's also pretty scary. Has 38 ATK with his Tomahawk, 19 speed so no one I have can double him, and 56 HP/16 DEF/14 RES. Valter is even worse, but he at least isn't out to immediately kill me.
>>742825329yeah but from experience most people ive seen that love 3h either hate engage ore are pretty lukewarm on it
Ngl, I think this guy doubles nearly everyone I have as well. Crazy map.
>>742825201Normal person who likes 2 games at the same time and who didn't engage in shitty niche culture wars on Reddit, shocking
>>742825329I think half of the normie reaction to engage is the artstyle being too "anime." I doubt your girlfriend has that problem.
>>742821796Make a god damn general and fuck off
>>742825704Those are insane states, definitely overtuned. Does he still have Iote's Shield so at least you can at least hit him with arrows?
>>742825763Effie or Amelia?
>>742825748yeah but you never really know like some people will literally watch shit like My Dress-Up Darling and then say somethings too anime
>>742825801Yeah, he still has a Fili Shield that he'll drop if you manage to kill him...Also I found out the hard way that he WILL move if you come into his movement range. Guy basically became Ashnard.
3 min
Nothing Ever Happens
>>742825823Amelia
>>742824738Prrooooohhh.Hopefully he's one of those based vengeful elephants that stalked and killed 20+ indians
>>742824859>Everyone unpromotedWtf are you doing nigga?
C'mon now...
plap
>Still nothingOH MY GOD, BRO
>>742825763Is your game getting multiple active updates every week for an upcoming new release?
IT'S OVER
>>742826024havin a good time
>>742826117...is
>>742825892I love when my normie friends like My Dress-Up Darling. Prime example of both protagonists being wish fulfillment.>Male protag is 6'1, big hands, quiet and obedient, great cook and sewer.>Female protag is voluptuous, good cash flow, eats like shit but never puts on weight, loves all vidya and anime, will go to a con with you.
>>742826024Everyone complains about FE8 being too easy, but you still early promote when it's not needed at all?
>>742825704How'd Seth not die?
I should know by now not to expect FE updates on time but I fool myself every time
>>742826147No I just wanted to fuck with you all lol
>>742826231Why should I play your gay challenge run when developers can learn how to actually balance a game?
>>742825910Don't forget he can also activate Pierce that negates armor, that's how he killed my Duessel in my regular HM run.
>>742826231>FE8 being too easyI never played Sacred Stones before, but what units are you given to make you able to beat...>>742825704This?
>>742826231there's only like 4 chapters left after this
>>742826250Most of them have not actually been at 11 o'clock on the dot. The problem is...if it's not that, it can be 11:10, 12:10, 4:00, 5:00 before you can properly dismiss the possibility of one. It's Chinese water torture.
>>742826312tfw having fun with scrimblos is a challenge run.
>>742826340It gets even funnier because he also has a Killer Lance and can get up to 47% critical rate.
Guess they think no one wants to know about Waluigi.
>>742826378These >>742825704 aren't Valter's real stats. He can have up to 19 speed on either route on hard mode.
>>742825019play theodora and pray she has can summon an elephant
Intern-kun…
>>742824859Want tips? Promote your units and stop using trash units like Marisa and Ewan.
I hate this lack of schedule so fucking much
>>742826603im going cai first but hopefully the game is more enjoyable than 3h so ill have the desire to play it more than once
For me it's Shamir
>>742826398More like 8, but you're still right lol. I thought there were at least a few more after the routes converged in my memory.>>742826378Valter is not that hard in the real game. Seth can fight him with a silver lance with barely any investment IIRC.
>>742826528Yeah that's why I had to kill Caellach first to get the other shield.
>>742826745kill yourself, mutt
>>742826686Same, it's driving me insane.
>>742826746+6 HP, +4 STR, +5 SKL, +5 SPD, +5 LCK?Reminds me of New Mystery Lunatic. Interesting his defense is the same.
>>742826686While there hasn't been much of a pattern with the update schedule, one pattern that we have seen so far is that before we get that bio/support post, we get the short gameplay clip first and those get uploaded and hour or two from now.
>>742826746>with a silver lanceOr the dragonspear you get right before that has 30 effective might lol
worst is going to bed with hope in your heart and waking up to bupkus
>>742826219Marin is perfect
【Character】Bonaparte (CV: Soichiro Hoshi)The wise general of the Kingdom of Salamis, still active on the front lines as the right-hand man of the protagonist, Theodora.In a kingdom where the use of writing is forbidden, he memorizes all of Salamis's history and wisdom.●Likes: Memorizing knowledge, debates with sages, reciting poetry
>>742824859Where the fuck is Seth?
>>742826746Yeah but your units in 8 are actually absolute shitters. This is Kyle's average at 20/1 Great Knight. Forde can't even tickle Valter at 20/1 GK.
>>742826992Just empty your heart of desire bro, just break the cycle of suffering.
>>742827030He looks magnificient in actual portrait. How can they make ugly bandit guys that cool like Fabio?
>>742827030He looks like a Pirates of the Caribbean reject.
>>742827030Bonaparte
>>742827030He's Napoleon??
>>742827030based
>>742827030>brown on dark skin
>>742827030Oh jesus he's napoleon.Also No writing kingdom theodora literally live like
>>742827030Nigpoleon
>>742824859>Yeah, he comes straight for her.He shouldn't move at all. Is this a mod?
>>742827030>In a kingdom where the use of writing is forbiddenOh my god
>>742827030Is he same VA as Kira Yamato?
>>742827036He's chilling with Ephraim.
>>742827030>red hairtheyve molested my goatah hell nah they got the niggas in the nigga kingdom rapping

>>742827030Anither knowledge lad. Waiting for the fabio vs tiara vs him debate
>>742826686the schedule is real, intern-kun is just incompetent!
>>742827030>Bonapartehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZtbNyyPFYg
>>742827030I’m sorry, but there’s something absolutely hilarious about the kingdom of brown people not being able to write.
>>742821796Ive loved fire emblem for 25 years and I feel no excitement for this game.
>>742827030>In a kingdom where the use of writing is forbiddenWhy? Theodora must be an obnoxious bitch.
>>742827030>THE PROTAGONIST, TheodoraCanon route confirmed doko?
>>742827220It's gonna end in a spitroast
>>742827214It's an achillean nose, philisstine
>>742827030I, too, wear a leather belt strap to chafe my nipples off in the hot arid desert climate.
>>742827030We wuz kangz we just didn't write it down.
>>742827142>Is this a mod?Seems like it.
>>742827148Theodora's kingdom would be based on Islamic civilization, as her spear has name of Mohammed(Mahamadou), aside from her outfit being super haram.
>>742827252It's worse, it's not ALLOWED.Some bitch decided that school n shit is illegal
>>742827030>where the use of writing is forbidden>he memorizes all of Salamis's history and wisdom>Likes: memorizing knowledge, reciting poetryIs this nigga a griot? We honoring the oral tradition up in this bitch?
>>742827030>In a kingdom where the use of writing is forbiddenWhat did they mean by this?
>>742827030Uh no no no Frenchies wont like this!
>>742827214theres literally nothing wrong with it
ok they gave the africans a divinely imposed oral traditionsomebody at IS has been fucking an african studies majorthe evidence is overwhelming, this shit goes so far beyond what western dei consultants do which is making everyone a bulldyke with killmonger dreads who talks like a professor from vermont
>>742824859Caellach not fucking around. He and his bro Valter play to win, not stand around and wait for you to kill them.
>>742827393J'aime cela
Fire the character designers.
>>742827030Baguettes in MY fire emblem?
>>742827332How can black guy have sharp nose?
>>742827030>where the use of writing is forbidden,ah this must be the gameplay chad route
>>742827252>>742827258>>742827374There's gotta be some actual interesting lore implication for this, rather than just a random lore tidbit. Maybe some tyrant used widespread pamphlets or something to spread rebellion or reformation like some fantasy Marin Luther that led to it getting banned.
>>742827030>Completionists will have to pair themselves and girls to this guy.Hahahahahaha
Promote the character designers.
>>742827398It's COMICALLY large. It needs to be 20-30% smaller. He's attoseconds away from fiendishly rubbing his hands together with dollar symbols in a thought bubble above his head.
>>742827050Wait...are SS units really that bad? Is Seth just a god among men?
>>742827413Actual blacks here are Yasuke guy and black armored guy.
>>742827030FINALLYYYYYYY
>>742827472my nose is pretty sharp
Holy fuck this game is UGLY
>>742827472black people have a broad range of phenotypes. Can't say ive seen an african with this levantine ass nose though
>>742827030I fucking love Waluigi. On top of that he’s even a wise man this is 15/10
>>742827567He is voiced by Kira Yamato guy, and Yasuke guy would be voiced by Ishida Akira, and Pomp Mario would be voiced by Suzumura Kenichi.
>>742827030THANK YOU INTERN-KUN, BLESS YOU.
>>742827536I know when you're used to anime girls that literally dont have noses that might seem crazy but its fine
>>742827030>In a kingdom where the use of writing is forbiddenI can't tell if this is the most Komuro or most anti-Komuro thing I've ever read.
>>742827030> In a kingdom where the use of writing is forbidden, he memorizes all of Salamis's history and wisdomOmg he’s a Mad Max history man
>>742827538The memes about Seth are not an exaggeration. Especially if you aren't aware, but boss EXP is rigged to always give full exp regardless of your character's level, so he doesn't even "steal" exp early if you just feed him boss kills.
>>742827030>BonaparteNever in a million years would I have guessed his name, but it is certainly memorable
The VA
It’s Akechi hhhhhhhhhhhh I can’t
>>742827626Shut up, retard. I draw and pay attention to these types of things and it's way too big. Kusokihara is hacking it up as usual. I don't care that much because I'm not a Theofag, but this guy is one ugly fucker and it would have been somewhat preventable with a human-proportioned schnoz.
>>742827719>I drawyeah me too, some people have big noses
So, if we are seeing the smart boys first, does that means Yasuke is Leda’s intelligent dude?
ok intern where's my gameplay?
>>742827030>Kingdom of brown people >Literally not allowed to read or write Based IS
>>742827030our hero...
>>742827814~2 hours or so
>>742827030Please have a slice of life scene of all the tacticians playing a boardgame/talking about books together. It will be kino.
>>742827714KAZUMA!
>>742827708>>742827714So japanese voicing people of color.Thats hella problematic!
>>742827719Me three and I think it's fine. I've drawn people on the trolley with bigger noses than him even
>>742827413>Japanese devs making an anime chess game full of dragons and magic somehow has more historical accuracy of African tribes than many western media projectsNot saying that it's a historical non-fiction here, the guy's name is fucking Bonaparte, but that is funny to see.
>>742827708>>742827714>even a side character got a famous VAI see where the budget goes
>>742827030>Theodora's dream is for Saramis to be literateBut for real, I wonder if living under the Divine Sovereign has something to do with it. This is the second instance of reading being frowned upon, first being Tiara's grandfather disliking her reading books, so maybe that will be a trend in this setting.
>>742827839what happens when fabio calls him a beast
>>742827809Scirocco is. He is a pretty boy who is isekai'd from gundam. And he is shaman who is good at both sword and magic just like bonaparte.
>>742825704Use Ike.
>>742827719Anon, I'll give you that it's maybe a tiny bit exaggerated, but do yourself a favor and google what a Roman Nose looks like. This type of silhouette on an obviously Mediterranean looking guy is not overdone or strange at all.
>>742827814Support clip gets posted 3 and a half hours from now.And then after another 3 and a half hours after the support clip you get the gameplay bit.
>>742827839That sounds too based for them to pull off that I find it very not likely to happen
>>742827784There is a limit to how large a nose can be, believe it or not, even for a very large nose. Unless you're suffering from some unidentified syndrome that fucks with your face anatomy, the limit is defined by how large your nasal cavity is, which in turn is shaped by the skull architecture surrounding it. This guy's nose is over a 1/3 his face height, it's ridiculous.
It's interesting how we have differentiated Lords, Tacticians, and gendered Avatars all at once. This game is going to be a clusterfuck.
>>742827959Ike...in Sacred Stones?
>>742827927He only uses that word to refer to Esmeralda
>>742827927Bonaparte is a man of intelligence, so he wouldn't need to worry about being lumped in with the rest of the beasts.
>>742828016He is obviously telling you to mod him in
So one of these must be Leda's tactician then
>>742827995This is also an anime styled video game features are exaugurated, no humans has eyes this big >>742827536 his nose is fine
>>742827956yeah but yasuke has a fucked up eye like the rest of the tacticianshe looks like an archetypal brute though, the rest of the tacticians look the part compared to their castmates
>>742827030>Wise general wearing that zesty attire. Dignitysissies...
>>742828102Yes but it's ugly. That's the difference.
>>742828095Scirocco. He has both sword and magic. Best to go dark knight or dark ornius.
>>742827956>>742828095I think it's actually going to be the blonde ojou-sama that's Leda's tactician.
>>742828137It’s their traditional clothing pls respect!
>Hon hon, I cannot read
>>742828080Sure, I'll tell the mod creator to do just that.
>>742828151sure but its not wrong to draw
>writing is forbidden the fuck?
>>742828010imagine if it's good though. imagine if the kitchen sink game is goodbut yeah at this point im expecting them to introduce child units
Can FW really succed with such a cast?There is no Edlegard or Dimitri to carry.
>>742828263
>>742828016Ike would be a shit unit in Sacred Stones unless he had Ragnell. He'd be a swordlocked infantry unit.
>>742827501>There's gotta be some actual interesting lore implication for this, rather than just a random lore tidbit.I don’t doubt it, but it’s still hilarious, the idea sounds like it came straight out of these boards.
>>742827809I'm expecting blind drills or sirroco to fill that role
>>742827915FE games tend to have some big names. Like Lys and Seteth in 3H, or Chloe and Yunaka in Engage.
>>742828263stop trying to revise history you guys were relentlessly shitting on Dimitri before the games release
>>742827915nothing new.
>>742828336Anons here will always pretend that moist Clive never happened.
>>742827030I think I’m gonna have him bang Ursula which means his blood will run in Marianne’s veins
>In Saramis you get sent to the gulag is they catch you holding a book
>>742827030>The people of Theodora's kingdom aren't allowed to write>Cai also mentions that he can't readMakes sense considering this tournament is full of randos and soldiers this times instead of a prestigious military school full of mostly pampered royal kids.Illiterate Emblem
Why does Theodora keep all her people illiterate and retarded?
>>742828336His hair got fixed.You can't fix those faces
>>742827030>>742827708>>742827714I think you've got the wrong guy, it says 鶴岡聡
>>742828419massa sovereign say we aint allows to read
>>742827472>>742827589I have. They’re typically Ethiopians though. Mixed Subsaharan African and Arab
>>742828202Link me the mod.
People on Reddit say the Celts used to forbid writing. Which is neat. Also the CV is Satoshi Tsuruoka, not Soichiro Hoshi. Twitter translate should not be trusted for Nip names.
>>742827030FINALLY
>>742827030That makes him being a mage make more sense
>>742828429Genuinely why is Grok so retarded. I saw a tweet where it was referring to Fortunes Weave as being either Fates or GenealogyAnd it also tends to say "translated from Spanish" or some other language when the original tweet is is in Korean or some shit
Marriage with Marianne!
>>742828426the game has pretty boys its alright you'll be able to jerk off
>>742828518>why is [AI] so retardedwoaw
>>742827030You know, I thought it was strange that they went for the name Fabio when it has such a cultural significance in the West as a specific character's name. Now Bonaparte which is also a very obvious and specific reference, not just some uncommon French name. Do you think we get more European reference names for other characters like Cassanova or Hannibal (or just Barca)? Esmerelda is at least a little more of a common name, but also could count as a literary reference.
>>742828419Her father did it tho before assassination happens.
>>742827030>salamis is named after greek city state>writing is forbidden>bonaparte memorizes knowledge and debates with sagesHe's Socrates
>>742828549But all the big corporations are saying it's the future and that's why computer parts are so expensive and data centers keep being built. Surely it must be worth it
>>742827501Yeah, it's kinda weird how it's just Saramis so far. Tiara already revealed she has books at home. You really have to wonder what the fuck happened over there to make that a rule,
>>742828429I never using grok ever again. He is Caster btw
>>742828498>Satoshi Tsuruoka>Google his previous workOh yeah. It makes more sense now
>>742828576Theodora would normalize this for being the new queen after her father is assassinated. Right?
>>742827918?We don't know what Theodora's dream is though.
A place finally fit for Nino.
>>742827252>>742827501>“This invention, O king,” said Theuth, “will make the Egyptians wiser and will improve their memories; for it is an elixir of memory and wisdom that I have discovered.” But Thamus replied, “Most ingenious Theuth, one man has the ability to beget arts, but the ability to judge of their usefulness or harmfulness to their users belongs to another; and now you, who are the father of letters, have been led by your affection to ascribe to them a power the opposite of that which they really possess. >"For this invention will produce forgetfulness in the minds of those who learn to use it, because they will not practice their memory. Their trust in writing, produced by external characters which are no part of themselves, will discourage the use of their own memory within them. You have invented an elixir not of memory, but of reminding; and you offer your pupils the appearance of wisdom, not true wisdom, for they will read many things without instruction and will therefore seem to know many things, when they are for the most part ignorant and hard to get along with, since they are not wise, but only appear wise." Socrates was right
>>742828234>>742828419>anons discover oral history preferenceEven Socrates and Plato hated the idea of writing shit down because they thought it would make people dumber if they weren't being forced to remember a bunch of shit.And there were a lot of African tribes that didn't partake in writing their history down, only passing it down orally.
>>742827030So clearly reading is an issue on this continent. Cai can't read, Tiara had to do so in secret, Samaris forbids it. Hope this is more than setting and actually has some plot relevance.
>>742828498>They actually got Gilles de Rais to voice an FW character>But it's not Fabio
>>742822712>Left 16 => 14I only just noticed this. Is it implying that magic has a shared resource pool, with each spell costing different amounts to cast?I.e that Thunder costs 2, taking the units MP (so to speak) from 16 to 14.
>>742827501>>742828603There were a few ancient cultures that disapproved of writing, I guess Saramis is going for that vibe
>>742828137A kingdom full of illiterate sluts
>>742828095Scirocco's neck looks really strange here
>>742828336noodle hair did get shit on a lot initially, but I really remember nothing but praise once timeskip designs were revealed.
>>742828603it seems like a similar playbook to rhea. retards of the past used tech to nuke the planet so knowledge and tech had to be reigned in.
>>742828628I'm joking, anon.
>>742828731people were still saying he looked wet
>>742827030>Memorizing knowledge, debates with sages, reciting poetryMotherfucking Homer up in this bitch
>>742828603probably imposed on em so the empire theyre subservient to can control their understanding of their historywould be cool if his font of knowledge is just pure bullshit
>>742821796Sorry, the sand dragon is unlikely to be more popular than the classic green dragon.
>>742827030Tiara and Bonaparte in a debate
>>742828703Maybe it's all just shared with the same resource that weapon arts use since there's no durability.
Me when I'm shown a book in the land of Dagda
>>742827030His description actually sounds cool but why couldn't he actually look like a philosopher instead of a gay half naked pirate?
>>742828842>Two retards spouting out nonsense
REJECT LITERACYRETVRN TO STRONG ORAL TRADITION
>>742828703Probably just like 3H where each spell has a finite amount of uses per battle. I don't think MP is a thing. That would be interesting though.
>>742828703is it that or is he doubling
>>742828874He looks tough there
>>742828874He's a general that's been on the front lines for a while anon.Would be weird if he didn't have a scar or two.The bandanna is an odd choice tho
Reminder its scientifically proven that people from cultures with primarily oral traditions have better memories
>>742828664I can already see a base conversation between Tiara and Bonaparte with Boney telling Tiara off for not having real experience or wisdom, and only remembering worthless texts from nobodies.
>>742828841She fucks humans btw
>>742828874Bonaparte isn't some pussy sage that spent his time locked in a building reading books. Dude would shank someone on a battlefield and then go home to listen to the local tribe chief recite poetry which he would commit to memory.
>>742828874PUT THAT QUILL PEN DOWN, WHITE BOY>throws a rock at you
>>742828874They could have just patterned him off real life oral historians/poets (griots) from West Africa. Billowy sage in robes and ornaments who plays tunes to cast his magic would have been cooler than the Hard Gay shit we got instead.
Ok now this profile fits him better
>>742828920Good question, but I'm too lazy to look up the source of that pic to answer it.
>>742828874oh so noooooooooooow we don't want units to have visual cohesion from where they're from
>>742829050>"not reading books is good for your IQ"ENTER CAI
>>742828993It's also proven that the printing press helped accelerate education and literacy. Cope oralfags.
>>742828674Celtic druids apparently did it so they could have a monopoly on certain kinds of knowledge as oral historians.
My Dagdan Majima, finally here. His portrait looks so much better than the 3D model
>>742829130some of u niggas shouldnt be able to read
Why are FE fans obsessed with 15 year old girls?
>>742828874>inb4 he lost his eye by shit talking some noble in a debate and getting attacked for it.
Would you give up reading books to become her consort?
>>742829087I think it's from the second trailer where he's attacking an armor knight.
>>742829137The invention of books and more widespread education did put a bunch of academics at the time out of a job since they were the only ones who could read shit and then get paid for teaching the texts to certain groups that could afford it. Makes sense that a lot of groups back then were against anything other than oral history (for the masses).
>>742829267That's not her skin color.
I have to assume Sirocco is Leda's tactician then Very interesting that the Tactician role is being taken by normal units this time, most of the time they're an off screen character or the player avatar
>>742829086Motherfucking big bird.
>He doesn't have his nations most cherished texts committed to memoryWhat are you, retarded?
>>742829114Books are going to be like ghosts and spicy food were in three houses. Everyone will have an opinion about them.
Do the men of al zutt appear in this game?
>>742829086Based Big Bird gatekeeping all the letters to himself. FUCK ELMO
>>742828842Please, continue, it is such a great pleasure to find intelligent company among all these beasts.
>rhea banning the printing press was inspired by saramisSHE DID NOTHING WRONG
>>742828842>teenage girl that read a bunch of her grandpa's booksvs.>grizzled and traveled general that's heard stories across Dagda and has all of them perfectly memorizedTiara would get absolutely smoked in a debate.Same with chess too.
>>742829327I think it's the Ojou mage she has with her.
>>742829379>cai mistakes fabio for a bird and tries to ride him
>>742829413He looks like a jujutsu kaisen character now.
>>742828842Betting that Tiara's grandpa was rivals with Bonaparte
Imagine knowing how to read...stupid F*dlanese...
>>742829421Saramis has a strong and storied oral tradition, that does not justify Rhea censoring the history of what she herself did
>>742829413Lmao how has Fabio got so many fanarts already
NO ALPHABET, NOT EVEN NUMERALS
>>742829086>Enemy says something about Theodora walking into their trap>Bonaparte steps forward
>>742829137>>742829310Theory: the masked man from the trailer is a priest and that religion is opposing literacy in Saramis. His faction is something like "arcor of oblivion"
just got a switch 2 and im looking to get three houses, do i want just the game or with the expansion pass? its 40 dollars and 60 dollars respectively
>Theodora can't readIs she the first illiterate FE Lord?
>>742829572i got my fill of the game without the DLC
>>742829573cai was introduced first
How will theh explain the inevitable enemy mage units in Theodoras kingdom? There whole thing is reading.
So I'm seeing a thru-line here that all these "Right hand associates" of the 4 protagonists seem to have issues related to their eyes.That would have me conclude that that brick shithouse axe user with the super scarred face is Leda's right hand
>>742827030So is it >Bon aparte or >Bo na parte
>>742829573You think country bumpkin Alm could read?
>>742829634They don't have tomes though
>>742829634>he needs books to cast spells instead of just memorizing the incantationslmao
>>742829572The DLC has what are seen as the best maps in the game and four new characters to use. For sixtybux it and the base game isn't a bad deal but you don't necessarily need it.
>>742829573She would reform Saramis after father's death.
>>742829273https://youtu.be/Rl5_C4sc5zk?t=108Okay, yep, just doubling. I do find it a little odd that they display the hit chance and so on for each of those two attacks individually, though. Probably for combat arts, or something.
>>742829447It's the guy with the burned face as he is shown with her in Cai's gameplay with Leda as a teal unit.
>>742829634Writing is forbidden, not reading. As far as we know at least.
>>742829634They would be shaman and priest mostly. Who drives their power from innate belief.
>>7428296692nd one in french
>>742829634Outlaws or special privileges.
>>742829573No one said they can't read. They said it's forbidden to write. Reading could still be a skill taught to the nobility to separate them from commoners. Restricting access to writing could be more a form of censorship/control rather than just a preference for oral traditions.
>Bonaparte is the fullmetal of his world and can cast spells without a book or a magic circle
>>742829868Maybe shaman(sword/magic) and priest(light magic). Not actual mage.
>>742829573Both Cai and Theodora can't readI suspect that Dietrich was never taught to read, he was raised in a Death Knight cult who only taught him how to killLeda's family may have been killed before they could teach her the basics of written languageThere is a chance we have a cast of fully illiterate lords
>>742829668He probably got the scar from Leda home town as we see that it was burned down.
>>742829929I doubt Fabio would follow such an educated lord.
>>742829929Were knights illiterate too? They were from barbaric bandits with fine steel weapons and mail, as 3H implies.
>cai's right handshort-sightedness>dietrich's right handstrabismus>theodora's right handEyepath>leda's right handBurned eyeAll of them have eye problems
>>742829947And would pugilist kid be an war orphan? They could have faster growth. which pronoun does they have?
>>742829668He doesn't look like the tactician type. Unless said tactic is bull rushing the enemy and shoving an axe through their skull.>>742829947Him being Leda's childhood friend is more believable, but I'm guessing he's just a random merc that's the bodyguard for Leda's traveling show.
>>742829994Funny that only Leda's lieutenant is Brutish warrior, while others are mage, and bonaparte would be hybrid.
>>742829994I can just imagine Tiara going up to Nagoriyuki with his horrible fucking disfiguring burn and trying to be relatable like some rich white liberal woman."You and I, we're no so different, Jamal..."[spoilers]specs might be hard to replace her world, to be fair[/spoiler]
>>742829994Wonder if this means that they are terrible tacticians and the Lords need divine guidance to succeed.
>>742829712feels weird to see this picture not being used by the local schizo
>>742829668It was easy to predict because when the lords are teal units only their tactician are next to them. They always come in pair.
>>742830065Yeah, he doesn't look like the strategy type at all. Either he's gonna be a very devout warrior type so he's actually pretty smart or he implies that Leda and those associated with her don't have any qualms at just brutalizing those who get in their way
>>742830275If Yasuke is actually intellect type, it would be funny as he is closer to brutish type.
>>742830192I feel Eshmel is meant to serve as a moral compass to the heroes rather than their tactician.
>>742830229You know what thats a really valid point I didn't even put together
>>742830189>with his horrible fucking disfiguring burnHe looks like black Zuko, it's not that bad.
>>742829634Bonaparte himself is a mage
>>742830275Leda seems more like the planner anyway, so having her retainer being the brute makes sense.
>>742830450He would be shaman for wielding sword too. Scirocco is shaman and having a sword.
>>742829668>tiara is nerdy, bookish tactician>bonaparte is the wise tactician>yasuke is martial tactician>fabio is ???
>>742830275>or he implies that Leda and those associated with her don't have any qualms at just brutalizing those who get in their way>"Hey Leda, which one is your tactician?">"Tactician?"
Have we progressed to the point where we aren't doing that FE4 remake geeentext in a potential remake yet (post it)
>>742830529Fabio is dark priest tactician.
>>742830124Yasuke is going to be a grizzled veteran who learned tactics on the battlefield
i wonder who's writing thisheavy on parallelism if the visually impaired retainers are fatally incapable of recognizing a weakness in somebody near to them i may cum
>>742830529The only dark arts user, a primordial tactician
>>742830450Would cat mask be a death knight in FW?
>>742830275>>742830591Lu Meng type shit
>go like five games and 20 years without a non-avatar tactician>get fourWeird of IntSys
>>742829267I don't have a choice. I'm a cute blond boy, I'm being her personal dildo whether I like it or not.
Dignity anons couldn't answer me so I ask you all the same question.>>742830504
>He would be shaman for wielding sword too. Scirocco is shaman and having a sword.
>>742830806MY HEART IS FULL OF VICTORY
>>742830707Eshmel is here to tell everyone the virtues of being a good boy or girl.Lest you sin and get banished to dragon hell where you will burn for eternity.
>>742830604Kusakihara. He would be responsible for gritty ugly men. And characters have surname. Class names are mostly in Kanji. Pic rel is Fabio if Komuro pressurized artists to have more pretty boys in FW, as she is hyper fujo.
>>742830798Very undignified to ask again anon
>>742830529Unethical probably. Dude just wants to bring pain down on his enemies
>>742830798
>>742830604Except for Tiara they also seem to be in the same eye, the right eye.
>>742827030>bonaparte is saramis' general>clearly looks old, description makes it sound like its impressive he's still on the front lines>but he also appears to be an early unitWhat will the explanation for him being level 1?
>>742829086Love the random Big Bird among all the deranged Fate servants (and Arash).
>>742829990IRL knights knew how to read. They also knew how to swim, a skill that was pretty rare back then.
>>742827708>Maebara
>>742830806>Petra speaks with a heavy accent>Duscurians may or may not have their own language I don't remember but Dedue speaks perfect Fodlanese>Dagdans have their own language confirmed but Shamir speaks perfect FodlaneseI think Petra may be retarded
>742830841Oh my god kill yourself already you fucking chink schizo
>>742830871He would be 20s but looks old, like Ramba Ral, Kycilia, Gato.
>>742830450Cat Mask being a mage might relate to them being some kind of criminal hiding their identity while seeking out ancient written histories or something.
>>742830871He could easily just be a Jagen but this is nu-FE we're talking about, and a 3H successor specifically. We don't like those too much.
when is it her turn
>>742830871have we seen his level?
>>742830871What's the explanation for every enemy general going from piss weak to progressively stronger.Why do enemy nations always send their level 5 brigand generals to fight the lord first instead of their level 17 paladin generals.
>>742830963She would be a war orphan.
>>742830896That's the wrong guy though. Grok messed up the translation again.
>>742830896Yes, Hinamizawa.
>>742826857That's haram, brother
>>742830904Petra only went over to Fodlan as a hostage like a year before 3H starts iirc, Hubert mentions that when they first met she couldn't speak or understand a word of the Fodlan language. So even with her thick accent, it's impressive that she knows as much as she does.Dedue got taken from his home and made Dimitri's servant when he was still a kid, which gave him plenty of time to learn the language and lose whatever accent he may have had.Shamir also mentioned that she lived in Abyss for a while after the Brigid-Dagda invasion, so she had time to learn it as well.
>>742830871It's a game. That's your explanation.
>>742830963>not a deputy>not even a retainer>clearly a trainee/Donnel-likeIt's gonna be a while. Jean was one of the few Engage characters that was never revealed.
>>742830963Everyone is assuming Yasuke to be the next reveal for Leda. But I could see it being drills lady first, with the tomboy being her second retainer reveal. But even if they went that order, she'd be at least like 5 reveals from now.
>>742830963>HerI can tell you already jerked off to him anon. Make sure you tell your parents that you're gay.
>>742831065He looks closer to Bleach's monk guy.
>>742830871levels don't mean shit
>>742831129>anons think this is a boyWhere's that Yujiro image about "I'm straight, so anyone I'm attracted is a woman"?
We've already got more interesting worldbuilding for this one nation in Fortune's Weave than we have for the entire continent of Engage. Yep, I'm thinking we're back.
>>742830983I mean, losing a couple positions to some jobber generals makes sense before it's clear that the allied army needs a bigger response. After that, then yeah the enemies need an excuse to keep fucking up after that.PoR actually handled this fairly well narrative. Petrine shows up very early to quash the mercenaries but Greil/BK get in her way, and buy enough time for Ike to get under Caineghis's protection, then doesn't really get access to the player again until after Begnion.
>>742831102No
>>742831074Petra came to fodlan five years prior to 3H.
>>742831229engage was a celebration game for children I dont know why anyone thought that was gonna be a standard moving foward
>>742831223I dunno about that but here take this page.
>>742830871>asking that nowLords are always in-story some of the strongest fighters in the land despite them also starting out as level 1 units.
>>742831223She does look cute in her model. A bit too brown and boyish. Her portrait looks better.
>>742831245Recruitment levels are also pretty funny and hard to line up with the story. The trained knights of the kingdom are always level 1 and then a random mercenary you recruit is like a level 10
>>742830963>>742831223do not lewd Peter's sister
>>742829413We need more smart boys fanart
>>742831510Can I lewd Cai's then?
>>742831469Then we have Sacred Stones where it's pretty decently lined up. Seth is the top general of his country. Duessel is a top general of his country. Saleh is responsible to tend to what is essentially his goddess. Innes is a trained prince leading an army against Grado.
>>742831510hfw i make her throw up double peace signs while my dick is in her ass
>>742831559She can watch Cai and Tiara's canon blooming romance.
>>742831510>brother is a pathetic puny archer>sister is a chad brawler
What's with religion and stopping people from reading?
>>742831687backlash against gnosticism
>>742831687Control.
>>742831675he's like 5
>>742831559Yes, you can tug on her nipple rings.
>>742831675What those knux based off of? They remind me of the Claydol thing.
MORE LIKEBONER FARTAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>742831675>little girl unit>make her a brawlerOdd choice, but based.
>Tiara has to compete in intelligence with an evil church supremacist, the oral encyclopedia and a seasoned warrior
>>742831901She seduces them
>>742831901it's anime the 15yo is gonna win
I’ll rip your bones apart BoneparteTurn your horse into glue Welcome to the Battle of Waterloo part two
>>742831859She's likely a poorfag trainee so fighting with her fists is just a natural thought process.She actually uses lances too anyway
>>742831901Tiara has the highest potential though, so she's sure to win.
