No

it's just really terrible perspective

Hmm?

*squints harder at the art*

Oh

 

[Forkball]

Holy shit, I thought ShockingAlberto was joking, but they literally gave Ike a sword-arm. Now I didn't play PoR or RD, so I must ask, is there a story reason for this??

He's holding the sword. Though his arm is at like a 90 degree angle.

Eww.

It;s just really really really bad perspective going on. His hand is gripping the sword..you gotta squint super hard to make it out.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

I remember GameFaqs discussions on whether it was a sword arm or terribad perspective.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Tellius is indisputably way more practical than most of Awakening's designs, but 'over-designed' is not the word I would apply to FEA.

EDIT: Also, best DLC art is Est.

God I love titania's design and her character in general.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

It's just bad perspective, but it really does look like a sword arm.

 

[Zalman]

Buff Ike is the best Ike.

 

[Makai]

Anyway, Smash Bros

 

[daripad]

Ganondorf,I can feel it

 

[K-A-Deman]

Roy's guest art is eurgh. Too over-designed and try-hard cool for me to enjoy it that much.

this artist decided to reinterpret ike as a robot

I like the armor, but it looks wrong on Ike. Might even be a bit too...off for Fire Emblem in general.

 

[Durden77]

This PotD is gonna suck so bad.

 

[Hatchtag]

It's a bit over-designed, but if Roy was to return, I'd honestly prefer the Awakening design.

As a bonus for in game effectiveness, the sword actually looks like the blade would be more punishing than the tip, which is how he plays in Melee.

 

[OricWindstar]

This PotD is gonna suck so bad.

Well yeah, with that attitude.

Spoiler

In my heart, I know you're right

 

[Golnei]

People so casually ignore that Leif's Awakening DLC art was pretty faithful.



He can also use nearly any weapon type in FE4 and comes with completely unique gameplay mechanics from 5. You want spears, axes, bows, whatever? Leif's got ya covered.

That one's definitely quite good. Sachiko Wada's contributions tend to blend into the background more often than they should.

*fist bump*

While I liked his Last Story designs well enough, I tend to enjoy his Drakengard stuff more for whatever reason. Four, Three, One, Decadus, Octa, Cent, Goddess Furiae, Hanch and Gismor in particular stood out.

Sakurai a bit late preparing the Proto Man alt for the POTD?

Buff Ike is the best Ike.

*high five*

We needs to cleanse. Everybody gaze upon the true Ike.

 

[Moonlight]

we've been talking on and off about FE for the past three hours

surely we've guaranteed an FE assist trophy or something

Eww.

That's nowhere near as bad as Ike's right arm.

Like holy shit I didn't even realize it was possible to fuck up perspective that badly

 

[Tan]

gonna be a pokeball

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Sakurai a bit late preparing the Proto Man alt for the POTD?

Ok that would be overly awesome

 

[Troubled Bat]

I need to wake up in 4 hours, and take a 2 hour bus ride somewhere.. But I need to see the picture....

 

[SuperSah]

It will be nothing, and I will collect tears in a bucket and make ice slushies out of them.

 

[Dimitri LH]

This won't be filler, because I say so.

Troubled Bat confirmed to be sakurais cat.

Marth actually got some muscle? Looks better. <.<

 

[Neiteio]

7 years ago today, Pokemon Trainer was revealed for Brawl...

Oh man, how cool a double veteran update with Squirtle and Ivysaur would be

Like Robin and Lucina instead of Chrom, it'd usurp everyone's expectations

I never played FE

 

[Clov]

Marth actually got some muscle? Looks better. <.<

That I can't agree on at all. Marth looks best as he is.

[Makai]

SmashGAF's punishment: lock the thread if POTD is a character reveal.

 

[Moonlight]

That joke someone made about Sakurai putting the PotD up like two hours late is gonna turn out true, isn't it.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Wow, still no PotD

 

[Neiteio]

GARY OAK IS READY FOR BATTLE

2 smug 4 smash

 

[Dagobert Duck]

Tortimures beach pic confirmed. pack your things GAF, Sakurai is chilling with a chilly dog

 

[foxuzamaki]

actually checking back on im surprised nintendo commissioned quite a few h-artists lol for awakening

Alot of manga artists started work with H-mangas so its not totally uncommon, infact, surprise surprise, the author of highschool of the dead started as a h-artist

 

[Hours Left]

Marth actually got some muscle? Looks better. <.<

Finally, people understand.

Thin is not in.

 

[exfatal]

Its taking too long.. sakurai probably trying to think of a funny quip about the new boss character

Spoiler

Ridley

 

[Odie_Esty]

I just realized my copy of F-Zero GX was suppose to come today but it got delayed so it probably won't come until tomorrow. HOW AM I SUPPOSE TO GO FAST NOW?

 

[tonyh24613]

This is what I think.

 

[Forkball]

Excuse me, we're trying to have a serious conversation here about whether Kinu Nishimura or Kimihiko Fujisaka perfectly capture the heroism of side characters in Japan only Fire Emblem games that we've never played.

 

[Nickle]

He probably puts the POTD up at the end of his work shift, and he is likely working overtime to finish the game.

 

[afoni]

i sometimes wonder if emcee ever feels slightly crushed when his attempts at authority are undermined by people telling him to join in with the madness

 

[GamerSoul]

i wonder why these threads go by so fast????? they ask as they post hundreds of chat room level flickers of thought about fire emblem dlc character designs in the smash bros weeknight info thread

i laughed more than i should have. That is the gift and curse of Smash Bros.

 

[Zalman]

Do you guys think Sakurai will continue POTD after the 3DS release?

 

[?oe?oe]

Officially 2o minutes late. That 2 and a half hour late Kirby filler pic still fills my heart.
