I had some trouble on Birthright lunatic but I took every character not really based on their growths (but I took Ryoma, and yes he is indeed broken)
I'll take skills and enemies using dual strikes and pairup over simpler gameplay any day. For me personally I need that extra challenge, like playing the gba games with increased enemy growths or doing single gender runs etc. I like positioning a unit just so with the best allies nearby for damage mitigation and boosts. I like knowing that I can calculate when offensive or defensive stance is the best option and how to get the very best from my units. Choosing classes and skills for utility and combat and molding my army.. my team into a force prepared to take on all comers is nice. Fates really needed effective weapons to still have durability though. I like weapon durability, money matters more then and each kill is more valuable becuase of the resources expended.
Reinforcements that can attack on the same turn can stay gone though. While some games were good about warning you they were coming, other times it was just awful.
I wouldn't mind keeping kids if they went the fe4 route.

Facerolling Birthright with ninjas/tomes and doing solo challenges is still more fun than Robin Emblem: Awakening, featuring hilariously open fields.

I don't see how doing it in Birthright is any more interesting than in Awakening, especially because you can in fact do it in the latter without letting Robin get a single kill.

Honestly why waiting for Fire Emblem Warriors when Awakening is basically a musou game ?

In 2017 it would be too risky to do that unfortunately

I find that type of gameplay more fun. I enjoy the added complexity, especially since the game gives you all the necessary information (down to exact skill proc chances).

You can do it in the former without letting the ninjas/Corrin get a single kill, so it's kind of a moot point. Awakening's harder difficulty modes aren't as fun because getting units off the ground is more obnoxious and the map design is way worse. Corrin is more fun than Robin. Same turn reinforcements are ass.
Don't get me wrong, I liked Awakening a whole bunch. I just don't think it's a funner experience than BR, all things considered.

Ashnard and not the Black Knight who is far more iconic and whose role is far more prevalent in both radiance games?

I really hope they don't try to simplify the gameplay a lot. Awakening was way too simplistic.
Which I feel shocked some people when they jumped to Fates. It was perhapes too much progression , but don't try to go back to Awakening.
I do hope Avatars are not plot important characters and the My castle stuff is handled better. It's jarring to have a narrative flow broken up like that ( in my opinion).

Oh yeah, posted this in the FEgaf OT but here's my 1000% accurate FE: Warrior's (eventual) roster prediction.
10000% accurate, flog me if wrong.
Please be true. gives me that cordelia
.Black Knight is a lock. Was comparing "mad kings" though.

Ashnard always looked like a Pissed off Hector (Violent Hector)
Or what his Dad would look like.

In that case Gangrel is more popular and honestly had a bigger and more direct role in his own game compared to Ashnard who was mostly in the background until the very end if I remember correctly

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Probably, given the timing of it and that you can't have a direct for a game if there's nothing to show.... I think.

But PK, Corrin has to get the kill in chapter 1
Though on a serious note, I think the quality of the main chapters are similar in Birthright and Awakening, they both have a relatively solid earlygame up until the beginning of the Valm arc/when Ryoma joins, with a few good maps after that (Awakening 17/18/21, Birthright 16/23) but a bunch of duds (Awakening 19/23/24 and maybe some others, Birthright 18/20/21, 19 is too from an objective standpoint but it's also funny so I'll let it slide).
The difference for me is that Awakening's paralogues are way better than Birthright's.
That FE7 is a bad game?

Interesting choice of Xander/Ryoma art

Musuo games have introduced me to a number of series so I'm hoping that Fire Emblem's will serve as my gateway into this franchise. And while I'm not expecting it during this stream or anytime in the near future, ports of the 3DS games would be a really nice addition to the Switch library. That's all wishful thinking and probably way down the line, if it ever happens, but I'm excited for the Warriors title and interested in the mobile game.

Oh shit, I forgot about the paralogues. Awakening had some good ones, damn. I guess I also fell for the FE:A = flat maps all the time trap.
Damn, now I want to replay it
so I can experience good Anna again
Thanks for the info! The "variety of information related to the series" has me excited. After I heard that NoJ confirmed the mobile game, I was starting to feel like maybe that would actually be all (or most) of it.

Went to bed last night and this thread was at like 10 pages lol. Well it's good to see it confirmed for Japan, pretty stocked to see some FE Mobile and FE Warriors.
26h and 15 minutes left I guess

wouldnt surprise me they have done it in the past. Nintendo loves to not show off things at stuff like E3 that look awesome just to save them for a direct a month or two afterwords.

He is
Sigurd
If you ever plan on playing his game (Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War) and want to do so blind, don't read my next spoiler.
He is the main lord, but he is killed by being burned to death halfway through the game, and the game does a 16 year timeskip then you play as his son. His .... method.... of death has become a bit of a running joke for whatever reason.

Am I missing something? I don't see Donnel
All this boring talk about the characters (You all know it's going to be a Lord-fest with a dash of Tharja and Tiki) instead of talking about the 2nd most exciting aspect of this games: The Stages and the Soundtrack!
All I want is a remake or adaptations of Chapter 1 (Marth Embarks - Fire Emblem) the flawless 3-13 (Blood Contract - Radiant Dawn), Chapter 9 (Emmeryn - Awakening) and the Opera (Dark Reunion - Fates)
And for the soundtrack this better have a version of Conquest (Ablaze), The Devoted, Road Taken (Ablaze) and Id (Purpose)

Yeah I used the wiki to find characters in Jugdral and came across Sigurd, but wasn't too sure, thanks for confirmation and the explanation as to why the burning hair lol
Disturbance in Agustria and Eldigan the Lionheart are still the goat Fire Emblem Tracks.
Why would you include a bad character like that?
I already see Michaiah and Tsubasa.
And Chrom.
...Why did I misread that as Michalis...?

Is this Nintendo's first serious gacha mobile game ?
Can't recall other games that featured pulling characters and/or gear.

If there's gonna be a Tiki, it will definitely be little kid Tiki.
All of them more worthwhile than Donnel!
