Support NeoGAF

[Shengar]

Art designer was 100% responsbile for toilet armor.

I know, but he also responsible for the Myrmidon, and Mage, Mercenary, as well.

Seems like an East meets West story, especially with that end scene of Samurai looking dude fighting the blond Euro looking dude.

If this FE is about a war between two country without ancient threat mixed in, it will be my 2016 GotY.

Pls have a good map design, thx.

This too

added to that list

Actually the pegasus riders is kinda mixed for me, but Cynthia is on the cool list.

 

[JadedWriter]

Well Advance Wars is dead, fuck!

 

[GaimeGuy]

Ugh, it's going to be more Awakening.

Give me a world mapless Fire Emblem on Wii U please. Drop the anime matchmaking and bring back characters giving info on the upcoming missions at your base and we can call it GOTY.

Matchmaking has been a staple since FE4

 

[Meneses]

What would you have otherwise?

Spoiler

and don't say FExSMT

Something more similar to classic FE, with a bit less anime and / or waifus and more appealing gameplay.

But I didn't dislike Awakening, and having a new FE >>>>> not having a new FE.

 

[L95]

I wonder what the golem thing was? Monsters please? I missed Dracozombies in Awakening :c

 

[Firemind]

LOOOOOOOOOOOL

what a joke.

 

[Asd202]

Please come out in the west in 2015. Thanks.

Game looks like an evolution of Awakening, love the sprites work.

 

[Kouriozan]

One word : feet

 

[Nightengale]

YES.

 

[GaimeGuy]

It will have one, or both, sides turning to an ancient power to turn the tides of war in their favor. Possibly resulting in both sides subsequently teaming up.

 

[Blackquill]

I pray for a good map design

 

[Yoshi]

Yeeeessss
Now if they just add same sex marriage options it'll be a slay

With children? Marriage has a gameplay meaning in Fire Emblem...

Definitely the highlight of the Direct, I hope it will go back to disallow grinding.

 

[-Horizon-]

Breathless when this was announced. It shall be mine!!!

 

[TunaLover]

I guess this was originally SMTxFE? :c

 

[MLH]

Surprising announcement, I'm excited already. But does this announcement mean that SMTxFireEmblem is no longer happening? Seems like IS have their hands full with Code Name: STEAM and now this.

 

[Lord of Castamere]

Yessssssss. I want my relationship simulator back.

 

[Zyrox]

During the whole trailer I was waiting for Mara to roll into the scene on its glorious, golden chariot...oh well. E3 then I guess.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

Breathless when this was announced. It shall be mine!!!

I was literally at the brink of tears!

 

[decoyplatypus]

There is a quick snippet of pairs in combat in the trailer.

Ugh. Maybe they'll balance that mechanic this time around.

Matchmaking has been a staple since FE4

You know perfectly well that the kind of matchmaking you do in FE4 and FE13 is different from the standard support conversations in other FE games (only some of which result in romantic matches).

 

[Pooya]

looks way better than Awakening, Kozaki design rox. I was thinking of retiring the 3DS...

I guess this was originally SMTxFE? :c

if...

 

[Kurtofan]

Can I still marry characters

 

[Sephzilla]

I just started Awakening, too

 

[Hoagmaster]

Best part of the show for me!

 

[javac]

Very excited for this, to think Awakening was going to be the last one and we were worried they might have not localized it.

 

[dancrane212]

Matchmaking has been a staple since FE4

A staple? I don't recall marrying anyone else in later games. The conversation stuff was fine in previous games but I really disliked having to farm conversations to unlock new missions/characters in Awakening.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

I guess this was originally SMTxFE? :c

No SMTxFE is still happening!

 

[Blackquill]

Can I still marry characters

I hope not, it was poorly introduced in Awakening

 

[KillerMan91]

Fuck yes. Please be 2015, please be 2015, please be 2015....

 

[Assault]

Megaton, though it looks to be a 2016 for outside Japan.

 

[Piers]

I liked the dramatic dioramas at the beginning.
Then I rolled my eyes at the dancing anime woman.

Oh! It's Fire Emblem. That's okay then.

 

[Higgins113]

SMTxFE is deader than Half Life 3, just let it go gaf

 

[-Horizon-]

I guess this was originally SMTxFE? :c

They somewhat recently said that they were still working on it.

I was literally at the brink of tears!

It was a beautiful start.

 

[Veal]

Hmm...


?

I'm glad someone pointed it out so I didn't have to.

 

[Lunar15]

Oh boy, maids! Thanks Kozaki.

Nah, who am I kidding, can't not be hyped for Fire Emblem!

 

[Save 'N Quit]

My poor wallet.

Oh they just had to make a Tharja card knowing I would want one.

 

[shiftplusone]

Japanese title is Fire Emblem if and it releases this summer in Japan.

stands for invisible feet


god dammit

 

[Jintor]

Holy god I was so excited just by the advance wars concept of armies and shit

we gonna sengoku basara/dynasty warriors all over this. super powerful single units decimating mooks. we in thar

 

[Azuran]

Yes! I was afraid they were going back to consoles for the next one.

I can't wait.

 

[Seda]

Ugh. Maybe they'll balance that mechanic this time around.

You know perfectly well that the kind of matchmaking you do in FE4 and FE13 is different from the standard support conversations in other FE games (only some of which result in romantic matches).

Right, Awakening easily had a bigger emphasis on pairing up which kinda called way back to how FE4 handled things. Insinuating the series has always had that focus isn't truly sincere.

We see the pairing in battle, but it might just be attached to an FE6-FE9 type support system.

 

[Aostia]

SO happy, really. Awakaning was a great experience, can't wait for it. hopefully Q1 2016...!

 

[Dinda]

Yay!
And Nintendo, make sure that my female avatar is able to marry the new Tharja this time.

 

[chaosblade]

This was the highlight of the Direct.

Drop marriage system please!

 

[Draxal]

A staple? I don't recall marrying anyone else in later games. The conversation stuff was fine in previous games but I really disliked having to farm conversations to unlock new missions/characters in Awakening.

Errr, you could marry characters in FE6/7 (the first one released in America/8 and 10. It was more discreet but the support conversations ended with chars getting marred endgame.

Not really no. One didn't have in one, but fanboys/girls really added that backstory and it kinda became a staple afterwards. I mean Roy could marry pretty much every bachlorette in his game.

 

[SoldnerKei]

I need those

 

[Rootbeer]

Best reveal of the direct.

Legit psyched!!

Hope it's not as hard to pre-order as the last game. I barely got my pre-order in at gamestop for the first shipment.

 

[-Horizon-]

Want? Want.

 

[Yarbskoo]

Awakening is my favorite 3DS game,

Spoiler

not counting remakes

so I'm probably in for this one as well.

 

[Niraj]

Can't wait!

 

[MissDeviling]

I hope that if there's an avatar, he/she's more like fe7 strategist and not part of the plot this time.

 

[Firemind]

That's clearly the same thing as in Awakening.
