I'm way too excited about the possibility of 2-3 full campaigns to give a shit about what difficulty they are labeled. I can choose to not grind if I think it makes the game too easy.
Nohr is what Fire Emblem used to be in terms of map design.I'm new to the series as of Awakening, but Nohr sounds vastly more like what I'd actually want to play in a sequel versus Hoshido.
I'm thinking I'll just skip the latter barring it sounding notably more promising in the future.

This sounds like it has all the drawbacks of a digital-only game. I don't feel like I can truly OWN this. I'm far behind in the series. I bought Awakening on day 1, just to support it. But, by the time I get to this, will the servers still be there?
I don't know if I can pay for this...
Sooo what they already do with their games, but cheaper?Coming soon...
Pokemon This and That
Buy either "This" or "That" for $39.99 and buy the other as $19.99 DLC!

This sounds like they're trying to find a good middle ground and made two games, effectively, on the one hand balanced for hardcore and on the other balanced for people who enjoyed FE:A for things other than the strategical nuances of the other FE games.
Sounds good to me.
Would totally pick that up if Nohr was on top instead of the bottom. The plates are being sold for 2500 yen individually too, more than half the cost of the base game. Seems quite expensive for what doesn't look like a special material model.Has this sexy thing been brought up yet?

Ugh... makes me salty since we don't have the new 3DS here in NA so if they don't change that decision, we probably won't get this unless they do something like they did with awakening

translation for the full interview or for FEif part only? if the latter, it's basically the stuff in this thread
You can find translations here:
My favourite bit, from the SF translation (which I wrote, wink):
Higuchi is pretty smart.
It seems weird that they would go through the trouble of doing this double version approach and then boast about how one version is inferior to the other. Why would I even want to bother with Hoshido after being told in advance that it won't have good level variety?

Looks like they're really gonna play up that waifu aspect. >__>Both factions have their own attractive characters, so that will be one of the charms to consider while making your choice, adds Higuchi.
They're definitely catering to the players who prefer a more classic approach with Nohr's side. You won't see a vocal group of people defending Hoshido because a lot of hardcore FE players are online on forums like these. I'm not really that hardcore myself so i'll be purchasing both versions if need be. Looks like fun.
I'd imagine a lot of features that remain from Awakening will be present in Hoshido (marriage, grinding, etc) so it'll be perfect for casual players. Personally, I appreciate the diversity IS is offering here.

I could smell this post all the way from the GTA V PC thread, it stinks that bad.
No, you're 'expected' to pay full price for a full game and then extra for nearly an entire games worth of extra content, if you feel so inclined.
You people will twist everything stated so far into knots to justify your sentiments. Its asinine.

There it is. Bravo!
Edit:
Can someone tell me how the pricing will be?
Haven't heard anything about marriage or children yet. That bodes well to me for two reasons. One, it hopefully means that not all support convos will end with abrupt and sudden marriage. Two, we hopefully won't have time travel nonsense.
Marriage is probably in, timetraveling kids probably won't be in.
No way marriage is only in one version but not the other, that would be really dumb and also invalidate the push for the Nohr route anyway.
since Aqua>all the other girls anyway and Marx>Ryouma, this is easy

Well, people getting married at the end of the game based on support rank like all the previous FE games will probably happen, but if there's no kids, there will definitely be a decreased focus on it. It was really important that the characters straight out said in their support that they were getting married, because it immediately lead to their child popping up in the world.
The supports will still probably take more of a dating feel, based on the success of FE:A, but I'm fine with that as long as we aren't trying to marry people to produce magical super babies. I didn't hate it in awakening, but I think I've had my fill of that gimmick.
Beautiful, can't wait for people to complain about the thigh shot though.
Would've figured the third route would be the most difficult considering you aren't allying with any side.
In any case while I like the whole branching narrative thing, I don't really like the Hoshido = Easy Mode, Nohr = Real FE mode.

What if the third route will be kids?

I wouldnt be surprised to see Nohr overall just be a smaller game, I mean it already is without field battles and world map traversal.Awakening only revealed marriage and children when they did a full reveal of the game's features in commercials and such.
Considering how Hoshido seem to exist just to be Awakening 2.0, I think it's getting more and more likely that we'll have children again just to carry on all of Awakening's features. Of course, that means that Nohr would need some kind of equivalent feature, but I guess they could be just post-game or something.
