The main problem I have it is is simply the story. You just immediatly realize that it's a remake. Heck, the new prologue has better dialogues than the whole main game. And that's just a shame. The graphics are also ugly, but the story disappointed me even more. Fates may have some stupid story shenaningans going on, but at least the story consists of more than 3 boxes of text before and after each chapter.

The story was written in 1990 so you expect it to be a little bare bones. It's actually even more bare in the original NES game. It didn't even have narration at the start of the chapters.

The narration was added by FE3 Book 1 though, it isn't SD original.

I know, that's why I said it was even more bare bones in the original NES game.
Yeah, but that's just the sad part that basically kills the game for me. Especially after playing through that prologue.

BTW, the Fire Emblem Retrospective Part 9 is finally out. It's about Sacred Stones for people who lost track.

Do you think the lighter story would have been more acceptable in your mind if you have been playing FE1 or even FE3 Book 1 with their weaker graphics and dressings to match the barebones plot?Sölf;206245417 said:

but then those games have clunky UI lol
Can be done but it's a complete pita to do so because of Marth's cape. (you connect the pegasus with a standard nendo back joint with a joint connects to the pegasus's tail). My Marth's sheath likes to fall off all the time, so it was really frustrating to do so. They gave Caeda an alternate angry face, so I have a mounted American Caeda and Marth, after I got annoyed.
Thanks for sharing. Really happy to see the guy come back to continue this after the four year hiatus. Great series.

The guy is a Gaffer and he's in this thread.
No idea if that would be the case. Maybe I just expected more after playing through this new prologue, which didn't feel to different from other games. But then the main game happened. Could also be the total lack of supports. They added some of the new stuff, like reclassing, weapon triangle and so forth, I probably just expected more, even if it was only a remake.
I still haven't beaten FE 12, but that one is already so much better than FE 11.
Yeah, wasn't expecting her to be that huge.
I love how this piece of art was done by Sword Arm Ike's artist (fe6/7's Kaneda).

How big is the Cordelia figure anyway?

So who's looking forward to Nintendo's E3 stuff?
1/7, so about a foot high.

No Fire Emblem or Smash Bros related announcements are likely, so I'm not really excited.
I'm looking forward to Zelda, but I don't see how it can really leave a big impression at this point of the Wii U's life cycle.

Standing my Lucina beside Cordelia... Cordelia is about twice as tall and much wider (though that's cause of the spear and the wing and stuff).
Not excited at all truth be told, they've set very low expectations for a reason.
I am...but not enough to be up at 9 A.M. in the morning. (I still have to catch up on Ubisoft and Sony's conferences and i'm not a morning person to begin with, though I am looking forward to Zelda: Subtitle TBD quite a bit). If I was expecting something concrete beyond Zelda and Sun/Moon, I might have considered it.

now obviously we need to go full circle and bring durability back in the next Fire Emblem game
Surprisingly enough, Mia and Ike are the only two Tellius characters getting two SRs, thought it would have been Elincia or Soren over her.
Mia obvious best Tellius girl, so no.
Edit: Wait, Nephenee exists. Well then, better than Elincia and Soren girl.

Didn't realise Mia was that popular.
Hang on, why is she a Swordmaster and not a Trueblade?
Hang on, why is she a Swordmaster and not a Trueblade?
Gameplay reasons (tcg). I don't think she's that popular, but they just did it for the TCG. Only 3 characters got tier 3 classes (Sanaki, Ike, and Elincia).

Oh, I see. Was kind of hoping for more Tier 3 costumes. So we're not getting Edward's amazing jacket?
Also, as somebody who started with FE6, I love the joke in the Sofiya card. Hate those disappearing water tiles so much >___<
They're giving all the RD cards the T2 stuff first, in order to build a deck you usually want a 4/3 or a 3/2 card first (and Edward got a 3/2 rare which you can actually build a deck around with him as the main character). It's just too many characters + too many different forms for only 50 card slots in this set.
Personally, I love the joke cards, I love Merlinus's card just like I loved Oliver's from set 3.
