New Genei Ibun Roku #FE screenshots for Tharja, Virion, Draug and new characters

Does Tharja have arms? Or are they going for a Fi type thing here? They all look cool, but I can't help but call them Personas instead of Mirages.

Definitely agreeing here. The art direction and character designs are just sumptuously beautiful.

Easily the second (after P5) best looking game out of Japan so far this generation for me.

Which is funny when you consider that both games are being made by the same company.
 
I'm almost disappointed that they made Tharja so safe for work, I figured that would be the lewdest character in the game. But it's a cool design, although the obsured face is a bit odd.

Tharja looks pretty awesome, but man Virion, what the actual hell?! if he looked like that in Awakening he would be my fav character.

I really liked those designs. Now I need Cherche and Minerva in this lol.

Okay, I expected something, but not this. Tharja doesn't look as good as I had hoped, but holy shit Virion and Draug look badass!

Most of the Mirage's shown so far have had their faces obscured. Seems to be a design choice.

Think it's say to say Virion easily has the best design of the 3 IMO. Tharja and Draug's design are pretty good though. It's certainly an improvement anyway.

I would like to see some Shin Megami Tensei demons, and less idol stuff. Also a new trailer, I think it's about time.
 
Not lewd enough but I will say I really like Tharjas design in this game. This game keeps getting better and better.


Probably a week after Persona 5.

At this point I wouldn't be surprised if we got this first before P5 considering the game is pretty much finished and ready to be released in Dec for Japan. I'd say we'll probably get it around Spring 2016 at best depending on how the localization is going.

The entire game's theme is based on idol and work in the entertainment industry in general

Xenoblade X is going to have about a 7 month delay and Fire Emblem Fates' delay between the JPN and NA release is going to be more than 6 months. Thinking we'll get #FE before June 2016 is very optimistic.

They all have Carnage Forms and alternate costumes that can be equipped in combat. There are, after all, DLC swimsuit costumes for use in battles.

Xenoblade X is a different story than any other localized game, fire emblem case is still weird but theres probably more to it than that, this game should have a relatively quick time

I don't think P5 will be out by June 2016 either, probably gonna be a summer JP release and Fall/Winter in west. I wouldn't be surprised if #FE got a delay also cause Atlus, but we are getting info and stuff pretty often with this game currently, so who knows. Really no point to assuming when these games are gonna come out til we get exact dates.

The gameplay stuff from E3 showed what looked like the 1st dungeon. Most minor enemies were based on FE classes (rather than specific characters), but there were "Troll" mirages too.

They didn't resemble SMT Trolls, but there were never trolls in FE and every FE element is redesigned too anyway.

I was strictly speaking of "Spring 2016" for #FE in NA. The game definitely won't be getting delayed in Japan at this point, but I doubt it's going to be releasing here before Summer 2016.

Xenoblade X is a different story than any other localized game, fire emblem case is still weird but theres probably more to it than that, this game should have a relatively quick time

They're both exceptions? Has Nintendo typically had quick turnarounds for RPGs that aren't based on Mario or Pokemon?

Oh right, that. I think the characters will have three standard forms. In Kiria's case:


  • Casual clothing (ripped stockings)
  • Entertainment World outfit (bikini)
  • Idolsphere battle outfit (eyepatch)
But yeah, there'll be alternate outfits, so maybe you'll be able to equip Entertainment World clothes for battles at some point.

Edit: Ah wait, I totally forgot that she's shown battling in that outfit in the first trailer anyways.

It seems like all Mirages have at least partially covered faces, probably to differentiate them from the real world characters.

Yeah that seems to be the theme/style/whatever they are going for. Doesn't mean I have to like it :(

*Looks at Tharja design...

LOL at Tharja having a more NSFW desing in this game and Virion looks divine but hardly himself, I'm ok with that tho =P

And the little girl that likes things from the Showa period is kind of serving some Akira Kogami realness.

EDIT: Ummm, I remember that Virion had blond hair in the little image in which they showed him during the Treehouse demo, let me search for him!

Yeah I would expect this game to take a bit more time to localize than usual too since the whole idol aspect and I assune they are going to be dubbing even the music. Summer would be great though, best time for me to get alot of RPG game time in haha

Yeah they are dubbing the music, which is what's going to take so long with this game.

hard to believe that tharja has a more tasteful design in an atlus game

I don't think there are words for the amount of potential that was wasted. I know this design is only intended for a minor role, but it doesn't look like it could sell a keychain, let alone a 1:7 scale statue. It takes true incompetence to trample over the original's iconic perfection to this degree.

Have they ever confirmed how they would localize this game? It seems like a niche game though so I doubt they would go as far as spending money on dubbing the music.

Tharja and Virion look great. Virion in particular justifies his inclusion.

Draug looks as boring as he normally does.

They made Tharja less lewd? boo

Virion looks cool af tho, reminds me of that Berserk apostle.

Costume DLC!!!

I was thinking mostly of Tharja costumes in general, but on a separate note Berserk would make an excellent source of all costumes in a persona game.

Oh snap you're right :O

Well we at least know that Mara didn't get the boot.
