I need GIFs of that hot Nohr Lady.

 

[Poodlestrike]

If this means we can play as the Romanesque faction from the trailer, I'm game.

 

[Shaanyboi]

Pulling an Oracle of Ages/Seasons?

 

[mjc]

Wait what, two versions? I didn't get that impression from the NA direct.

 

[Velcro Fly]

If they are two full length game paths I'm ok

If they are not I'm not sure how to feel.

My hope is that getting all paths everything sort of ends up the same so you can recruit all characters eventually anyway

 

[Dr. Buni]

Interesting. Maybe the story and characters won't be literally shit this time like they were in Awakening. But still, two different games is kinda weird. Fire Emblem is Pokémon now.

 

[Neku89]

From the EU Direct, I understood that the differences are chosen by the player actions, not that these were two separate versions. Oh, well.

 

[El Sloth]

onii-chan

nii-sama~

 

[Bsigg12]

The NA one sounds different, like both stories are included from the get go.

 

[Gaogaogao]

the english trailer made it sound like it was one game in the us

 

[Kuro]

At least the feudal japan theme is cool

 

[Boney]

Huh, 2 versions? Hope the game is really meaty to justify it

 

[footfunghi]

2 oniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii chans

bhahahahah

 

[freeofgreed]

The US version definitely didn't make it seem like it was 2 versions so I think this might be a JP only thing, especially with how much the franchise is on thin ice over here. And if it is 2 versions for US then fuck Nintendo for ruining the only thing I liked about their direct.

 

[epmode]

Er.

[bobawesome]

Horrible idea but everyone will eat it up.

 

[bobbychalkers]

If the difference is really as drastic as they say then I can get down with 2 versions. Love everything I've seen about the game so far.

 

[L95]

Wait there are two versions of the game like pokemon?

...ehhhhhhh

 

[Assault]

From the EU Direct, I understood that the differences are chosen by the player actions, not that these were two separate versions. Oh, well.

That's what I thought.

 

[KarmaCow]

I got bored of FE:A so I'm waiting to see if they made encounters more interesting than clear the map but this pokemon'ing with two separate games is a real turn off.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Had a feeling it'd be like Pokemon/Inzauma/Yokai, but it wasn't clear in the EU stream.

Disappointing if it is radically different, especially given that third arc or whatever it is.

 

[Asd202]

The music though.

 

[Divvy]

It's kind of premature to judge the pricing structure without knowing the price

 

[Interface23]

From what it seems in Japan it's 2 versions, in US & probably EU one version with both games packed in

 

[GasProblem]

Yeah, EU/NA versions have both paths in the same game. Atleast that's what I got out of the Direct.

 

[names2hard4you]

Maybe the story and characters won't be literally shit this time like they were in Awakening.

Wow there.

I can't wait, the idea is pretty neat. It's gonna be a long wait.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Any Japanese speakers can confirm the 2 version thing?

 

[Azure Phoenix]

The UK direct made it seem pretty clear that you choose which story path you go down in the game, with the Nohr storyline being much more difficult. I seriously doubt this is 2 games.

 

[Busaiku]

2016 whyyyy.

 

[Chaos17]

2016 broke my heart.

Me too TwT

 

[Kinsei]

Wait they;re taking the one good thing about the game and splitting it across 2? What the hell happened to IS after Radiant Dawn?

 

[Smellycat]

Wait, what? 2 versions? That is ridiculous. They never said that in the NA stream

 

[Wyndstryker]

JP Direct = 2 games?
NA Direct = 1 game?

Need clarification on this?!

NA direct mentions that it's all based on choices that determine what side you're on

 

[chrominance]

TWO games?

You want me to pay (calculates potential Canadian price) ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS to play the two storylines?

 

[SliceSabre]

You know...I'm totally ok with this.

 

[L95]

Yeah, EU/NA versions have both paths in the same game. Atleast that's what I got out of the Direct.

It better....

 

[Jotamide]

Game looks good but having to buy DLC to experience the other story? Fuck that.

 

[Flare]

The whole 2 version and dlc thing is pretty disappointing and unfortunate... Canadian prices aren't convincing me otherwise as well

 

[WinterDemons]

Gotta buy the limited edition then for all the story lines.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Why'd they have to go and push their luck with split titles just because Awakening saved the series.

 

[Eteric Rice]

Who is making the FE TCG?

 

[TWILT]

So so so so hyped right now omg.

2016 tho

 

[GasProblem]

2016 though, pff. Way too far away to even think about.

 

[random25]

The onii-chan hype is real. Love that there will be 2 perspectives of the story, making it more replayable.

 

[Chaos17]

They will probably sell 2 different COSMETIC versions/bundles of the game in Japan.

 

[perorist]

Huh, I thought the NA direct made it seem like you chose your path in a single game.

2 separate carts from JP direct

Can pay an extra $15~ to download other version as DLC, as well as $15 for a 3rd path DLC to be released later

A limited edition with both games + bonus and 3rd path DLC will be sold for around $80

 

[K-A-Deman]

Huh, I thought the NA direct made it seem like you chose your path in a single game.

Might be a regional difference, but yeah I thought it was in one game as well.

Spoiler

Inevitable 3rd path DLC later.

 

[Wyndstryker]

Part of me is thinking that JP is getting shafted here. You can't really mix these details up on two different directs, especially when both directs were pretty clear on certain aspects.

 

[zeopower6]

Why'd they have to go and push their luck with split titles just because Awakening saved the series.

$$$$$$$$$$.

Spoiler

Inevitable 3rd path DLC later.

Isn't that actually what they're doing though?
