it's not good so far. Do they adequately explain the cameos later, or is it literally just 'lol here's Marth' for the entire game?

Should also get this out of the way early: I don't think this was a Treehouse Fates situation.
Look at the marketing
I think this was decided by some higher ups or marketing people to make a more family friendly FE.
But why though? 3H was pretty edgy and it sold well.
Maybe that explains why this wasn't marketed though... because they made an unmarketable mess.
Have you seen the endless wars on the internet over who is more "evil" and who is more "justified" from 3H? The FE fanbase can't handle any kind of grey morality or nuance to their plots, they are desperately trying to revert to black and white because it was causing too much infighting.
If you earnestly think 3H has any amount of nuance or moral relativity, I suggest you consume any media that isn't Nintendo made because the way 3H attempts to do this is through some of the most asinine, self-contradictory story telling I've ever seen. 3H causes flame wars because it's a game with a shitty plot, not because it's "nuanced".
>Have you seen the endless wars on the internet over who is more "evil" and who is more "justified" from 3H?
It's literally just edeltards butthurt that a woman is portrayed as wrong and stupid. Most of them didn't even play the game in the first place.
That shit was effectively striking gold from a marketing perspective as it has people talking about and being invested in the game a lot more than usual. It's surprising they didn't attempt it again.
While the 'moral grey' stuff mostly is a result of bad writing (Edelgard is a blatant bad guy but not in her route because they make major changes to the characters/setting in her own route only, so people are effectively 'arguing' about different canons) it undeniably resulted in a lot more discussion/interest.
Because FE has traditionally been built for multiple demographics, moron. The first 3 games were for 10-14 year olds, Genealogy and Thracia were meant for older teenagers, then 6-8 were all aimed at younger kids again.
This happens time, and time again. That's how you move from entries like Awakening/Fates to something like 3H - again intended for a more aged demographic. And in accord with these cycles, Engage is meant at that 10-14 range.
Are you guys stupid? Do you really think FE is purely aimed at boomers? The games will even move the pendulum between female focused games, to make focused games.
You people are fricking stupid.
>all the boomers that said this was going to be the mature return to form title
It's more or less a return to the GBA styled entries just with more out-there character designs.
But it is, the plot is "kill the evil dragon" again
FE6 would have filtered me when I was 12
>Do you really think FE is purely aimed at boomers?
Considering the gameplay, yes, Id say its like 80% aimed to boomers.
It could be marketed though, it's just that the vision of the moronic localizers and US marketers was at odds with the developer's vision.
Based on the original leak, Engage was slated for release in 2020 - keep in mind 3H only released in 2019, and we can see from the credits that the two games share next to no creative staff. Engage and 3H were developed more or less around the same time, so they couldn't have any idea of how people would receive 3H while they were working on Engage.
They just needed to marked it to weebs, the same king that made the Kimetsu no Yaiba movie one of the biggest Japanese hits.
Kek the average weeb would think that Engage story is deep and insightful the same way I see them talk about Kimetsu.
So this was meant to be a kiddie game and 3H was for adults I guess ?
>baby's first fire emblem
but muh return to roots, muh combat
>all of those "oh boy I am so excite I loved Three Houses" comments
OH LAWD there will be a reckoning this weekend
lmfao, no wonder they censored the shit out of the dialogue. These fricks wanted a war game for toddlers.
>series is more popular than ever
>LET'S MAKE A BABY GAME TO ATTRACT NEWCOMERS
What?
Why?
they're gambling on normalgays a little to hard to try and get them invested for the next one on [next Nintendo console here], but more importantly Heroes, which has the Emblems and more for them to get attached to and drain their money.
3H brought good word for the series, even with its faults, so they're trying to cast a bigger net for others who didn't, or got a Switch later on after the first year or so of 3H's launch where the honeymoon wore off proper.
It's absurdly risky, and with NoJ's constant push of it, NoA's evident distaste and NoE/everyone else's acceptance and moderate push being the norm since Awakening, it barely seems worth it.
Because 3H was awful and we need to scare off the normies
I seriously fricking hate American marketing.
It is just the japanese trailer released weeks ago in english.
>shows you who will hit you before you move
>shows how much damage you will take before you attack
>can rewind turns to avoid failure
Fire Emblem bros, what is this shit? Is this why you make waifu threads, to numb the pain of toddler trash?
you who will hit you before you move
Older games did that with only the tiles if you so chose.
how much damage you will take before you attack
Yes. That was easily there since the GBA games and older.
>>can rewind turns to avoid failure
Turnwheel started with Echoes and you're capped at 10 in hard and maddening.
Lol you can tell who all the Gankertards are in the comment section by their dated meme profile pics
Its almost like everybody was calling this before release and the only people defending it were heroesgays still butthurt that /feg/ started talking about actual Fire Emblem games again when 3H came out.
Thats the whole game. Dude holy shit. FE gays were actually hyped for this?
they are just rings that give you abilities, the characters in the rings get next no voice lines or screen time so its best to ignore that bit.
So the later bonds are like the early ones, got it. I got rank 1 on Marth and he was like "I am glad I am with you bro!" and rank 2 was some other random throwaway one-liner I already forgot
Marth and Sigurd talk a lot early on, do they become less relevant over time?
Sigurd mentions early on that he died like Lumera did, do they go into their backstories a lot? I still haven't played some of the other games the characters are from.
Spoiling that part of 4 seems like a dumb move. Especially if they intend on remaking it. I know most old FE fans know about it, but I feel like that twist would take a lot of these nu fans for a ride.
Even the old tv commercial spoils it. The issue is that the generation system is a big selling point for the game.
I didn't know that about the commercial. You can still do the generation system without spoiling that the main character dies though. Idk, I know Geneology has its problems, but it's my favorite story in the series and that twist was a big part of that.
here to remind everyone that fliers can't fly over houses and a lot of ground terrain lmao
only rubble and water
Dumb overcorrection just because wyvern lord was OP
Like the other anon said, overcorrection due to wyvern lord's being busted as frick.
just started playing if there's no way to destroy lower quality bond rings I'm going to be pissed frick messy inventories
Yes, in the intro, the world was in war with the Fell Dragon (not to confuse with Grima, the Fell Dragon) so the Divine Dragon summoned heroes from other dimensions to help, that's it
What I find weird is that Celica said something about Marth being a hero from a neighboring country implying they're from the same universe and she heard rumors about him, I don't know much about FE lore but I thought only Awakening happened in the same universe as Marth's universe, am I wrong?
They've always been the same world, just separated by an ocean, and even Awakening and Echoes reference this
In the second half of Awakening they literally visit the continent Gaiden takes place in (It was renamed from Valentia to Valm after its savior)
And in the new epilogue added in Echoes you go across the sea to fight baby Grima
I see, to be honest I never played Echoes nor Gaiden for that matter, I have the game, started playing it, but never got too far into it.
>I don't know much about FE lore but I thought only Awakening happened in the same universe as Marth's universe, am I wrong?
FE1's continent is on the same globe as FE2's continent, which later becomes Awakening's world.
FE4 and 5 take place in Jugdral. FE6 and 7 take place in Elibe. FE9 and 10 take place in Tellius.
All the other games are separate.
Valentina and Archanea have always been the same universe and they are tentatively also linked to Tellius by HIM
Something very funny is that the descendants of Marth (Lucina and Chrom) killed the descendant of Celica.
>1 and 3 take place on Archanea
>2 takes place on Valentia, which is a neighboring continent to Archanea (evidenced by the Whitewings appearing in both 2 and 1/3)
>4 and 5 take place on Jugdral, which is also probably set in the same world as Archanea/Valentia but it's not as clear cut in its connections.
>6 and 7 take place on Elibe, separate world from other games
>8 takes place in Magvel, separate world from other games
>9 and 10 take place in Tellius, which is almost certainly its own world despite some oddities Awakening brings in
>11 and 12 are remakes of 1 and 3
>13 takes place on Ylisse, future Archanea, and Valm, future Valentia. It should be noted that this game introduces the idea of alternate world and a greater Fire Emblem multiverse, kind of connected all the games.
>14 takes place in Fateslandia, some 13 characters show up via dimension hopping and/or reincarnation for some dumb reason
>15 is a remake of 2
>16 takes place on Fodlan, separate world from other games
>Heroes takes place in Zenith primarily, but features a shit ton of world hopping because gacha game
And that's the state of the series so far.
Fateslandia still my favorite, Chrom even mentions their world is just a fairy tale
>Fateslandia
Based KINO writing. Don't forget memorable locations such as Small Village.
Dimension hopping AND reincarnation. Severa, Owain, and Inigo get teleported to fateslandia after 13 to help a dragon thus are in 14, but also Severa's mom and Tharja from their original timelines reincarnate there. So Severa can be her reincarnated mom's mother
>get summoned to save land from Anankos
>settle down with locals and let Anankos win in Conquest
Like, what the frick were they thinking? Azura literally dies trying to help the main cast prepare for Anankos' attack, and Owain/Inigo/Severa are literally dicking around and marrying Nohrians.
It's almost as if they were poorly thought out fan service that were shoehorned into the game in the laziest way possible...
To be fair, Severa's the only one with a braincell in that entire party and she's busy trying to deal with Camilla. Also they do help kill the fell dragon in the Conquest timeline, they get killed by you in the birth right timeline, protecting the evil king. Also Severa runs away with whoever she marries, which should always be Silas because he's the only one she opens up with about her issues
I really think they were originally intended to be in some side-quest unrelated to Anankos and them knowing the entire plot is a retcon introduced by the DLC to make the DLC chapters themselves more relevant.
It just makes little sense with what we see from them in the main game.
Fate's plot was ruined by rewrites, whatever their original role was probably got lost in the process of ruining the first draft.
Dimension hopping is kind of Fates' thing so it makes sense
The reincarnation ones were moronic though
It's preincarnation, actually. Fates occurs before Awakening (somehow) and Rhajat's death dialogue is her seeing she's about to reincarnate as Tharja.
>>14 takes place in Fateslandia, some 13 characters show up via dimension hopping and/or reincarnation for some dumb reason
I will never not poke fun at Fates for this.
Awakening doesn't really do anything to Tellius directly
It just says that at some point, Ike went through an Outrealm Gate, became a legend in Archanea/Ylisse too, and the disappeared. with his only legacy being a local hero who claims to be his descendant and carries around a chipped Ragnell that lost its blessing.
He looks like "low budget cosplay porn Ike"
Kek, that might be due to the Awakening armor design being weird
What if the real implication here is that Marth is actually Ike’s true descendant?
Use context clues. They don't actually get brought from other dimensions. It's confirmed that they're just spirit copies modeled after a strong otherworldly hero. They all have the same dead blue eyes and refer to themselves as "Emblems". The real Marth or any other protagonist wouldn't do that.
2 takes place between 1 and the second part of 3
4 takes place on another continent in the same world but centuries in the past
5 takes place in the middle of 4
We likely would of gotten more connections but Kaga got booted from the dev team but you can see some references in Tear Ring Saga of it taking place in the same world again sometime after 4 and on another continent just with the numbers filed off.
Kaga outright talked about featuring the Pegasus Sisters before he got slapped by Nintendo. So, yeah, if he hadn't left we'd have gotten more crossovers.
there are several characters that are in both Celica and Marth's games
anyone far enough to know if this is true? I cannot imagine they did this.
What are mats?
the special ores to upgrade the weapons you gain in Engage (like Marth's rapier)
Those aren't necessary at all, but it appears to be true. I think Tempest Trials can also give the mats and I think that can be done offline, but it only unlocks after Ch.11 and I'm only at Ch.9 so I'm not sure.
>Tempest Trials
So they're straight forwardly taking concepts from Heroes? Damn, what was the point in making OCs instead of just making a proper Heroes game. There's plenty of shit one can do to explain them getting cut off from the Gacha portal, and plenty of OC's at this point to fill out an army.
You want an entire game about Alphonse?
Worst case scenario you can play with yourself on Ryujinx, it worked for trades in Pokemon SV so it might work here, you just need a good PC to run 2 emulators
well nah, I'll just grab a cheat file if that's the case. Don't know if I'll make it that far though because I feel the urge to go finish Front Mission 1st over this.
keep saying it
i have a feeling nobody is gonna be 100% happy with this one lol
How many chapters are there?
I've 2 chapters left to finish Engage I think, so far I'm liking it gameplay wise, love how every single unit is useful in almost every map, specially archers, Qi adepts and mages
I'm also only ranking their gameplay as every nuFE story is terrible with the exception of a pair of routes on 3H and certain aspects of Awakening
and yes, I've only played nuFE, I like anime girls, kill me, whatever
How many chapters in are you?
>Echoes better than Birthright
I know Birthright is easy and lol Ryoma but nothing beats Echoes shitty maps and enemy variety. At least Birthright has more unit customization
Echoes greatly improved an old af game, I'll give it credit for that
I played Birthright after Conquest and the gameplay downgrade hit me like a brick, it was painful to finish, so boring, easy and trivial
Echoes removed the only thing that made Gaiden even remotely bearable, that being the warp cheese.
Based
i feel like everyone's opinions of FE can be trusted by how high they put echoes. opinion discarded btw
>...how high they put echoes
it's on C, just above the worst nuFE gameplay wise, tf are u smoking you Black person
Not him but plenty of people don't like Echoes by virtue of the fact that it recreates certain ancient ass aspects of the OG 1:1 (some maps are mega ass, witches teleporting onto and blasting your units nig style, magic costing health etc.)
>and yes, I've only played nuFE, I like anime girls, kill me, whatever
Not only classic FE has plenty of waifus, it has the best waifus.
>sov bellow fricking revelations
What does "nuFE" mean?
Awakening and later. Echoes is included simply because of the release date.
The devs put more emphasis with character supports and bonding.
The trailer from two months ago made it pretty clear that the game is all about the MC's romantic adventure with Marth
Marth is a creepy frick who watched you sleep for 1000 years, keep your distance from that freak
>tell him im sorry for keeping the ring on while sleeping, ill take it off
>no no, this way i can watch over you better haha
Im scared bros...
>haha bro hey bro hold my hand so we can Engage
>haha it's like I'm your boyfriend and you're my boyfriend haha
>just kidding bro haha
God I wish Lucina (female marth) said that to me
No wonder Chrom marries you whether you like it or not, it's hereditary.
Yeah theres too much homosexual vibes from Marth. Its getting tiresome
Is there a way to grind like in Awakening where you use an item in the overworld map to force a skirmish?
"That's Emblem Marth, to be clear"
He wants to make sure you know that he's for (You) and not the Marth that's married to Caeda.
here's your stat growths, bro. Yes, we gave classes hilariously weird growths, like the mage twink you start with having archer growths.
>Celine
>MAG 25
Really? Mine so fricking strong
class growths are VERY dominant in this game it seems
On chapter 5. So far the battle music is...forgettable please tell me it gets better
You’re going to miss hearing Fodlan Winds
>kino chapter introductions with that instantly recognizable music
>Great Tree Moon: The icy winds of the Oghma Mountains have begun to scatter, and the verdant fields once again spring into life across Fodlan, heralding the start of a new year. As they celebrate the dawning year, the people pray that they may realize their full potential, just as a tiny sprout hopes to one day grow into a great tree.

seriously, just give the IP to KT. IntSys needs to be dragged out the back and put down.
unironically this, steal some of the gameplay staff from int sys and the graphics guys
Why can't a 17 year old have consensual heterosexual intercourse with another 17 year old?
Californians
Because the one watching them is 10
Becuase (You) are a 30-something incel and the other person playing is a pea-brained zoomer homosexual who thinks fictional characters kissing has any effect whatsoever on real life
if the bright colours or simple story didn't tip you off
this is a game for kids
They can't have consensual homosexual intercourse with another 17 year old either.
Everybody lost here.
There are no heterosexual people in this game.
EVERYONE is bisexual.
As for the age, it's because these morons don't care about their own character age, they think people will actually self-insert and so they are trying to prevent you, a sweaty 45 years old fatass, to get with a 17 years old girl.
But how would you even self-insert with this MC? you should be especially moronic to consider it an avatar of yourself.
>Do they adequately explain the cameos later
I mean they literally went over this in like the first 10 minutes of the game. It is adequate enough to FE standards.
>It is adequate enough to FE standards
No, it's really fricking not when fricking TMS put more thought into its Fire Emblem NotStands than this game did
frick off
holy shit, you're right. Tokyo Mirage Sessions had a more fleshed out system for Fire Emblem cameos than this latest "mainline" FE release
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
I unironically think Tokyo Mirage Sessions is better than this game. At least it had some ambition
>bombed twice
Uh yeah it got the exact reception it deserved.
"Ambition"
Stop lying, TMS didn't know what the frick it wanted to be and paid for the price for it.
TMS bombed because of the censorship, as much as people want to deny it. The Switch version proved it beyond a doubt.
I hope Engage flops because of the shit Treehouse pulled
I haven't been follow this game at all, what did they do now?
They made Alear's S-rank Supports with underage characters platonic (even though Alear themself is underage).
...That's it.
Alear isn't underaged, why do you shitposters keep repeating this obvious lie.
Datamine lists Alear's age as 17.
Burgers consider everything below 18 to be underage.
>Datamine
homosexuals the story literally says Alear's been asleep for over a 1000 years. This is Now/Tiki all over again, no one's crying out regarding over aged dragons who look young.
I'm just stating a fact. I already know about the 1k year nap.
<Param Out="" Pid="PID_リュール" Fid="PID_リュール" Name="MPID_Lueur" Jid="JID_神竜ノ子" Aid="" Help="MPID_H_Lueur" Die="" Belong="" UnitIconID="001Lueur" Age="17"
The fact doesn't counter the truth of Alear being way past 17.
You actually think burgers will acknowledge that? Look at what happened with Nowi.
Who cares about twittertards? I'm talking about the shitposting of Alear being underage for marriage as well when that's a easy lie to dismantle. Now I could still be fricked in Awakening, as well as Elise in Fates and that was 3DS-era Treehouse who censored everything they could.
*Nowi
Awakening and Fates allowed that because the marriage and 2nd gen was a relatively massive gameplay mechanic, to a lesser extent compared to Genealogy, so they had to try to justifyit. All other games are more or less just having that for flavor text.
If you can ignore the files regarding Alear's age, why can't you ignore them regarding the other characters's ages when the actual game doesn't mention them in any way shape or form?
>Character is in stasis for 1000 years
>This makes their age 1000 years + their original age, instead of just their original age
Do you also consider Sleeping Beauty to be over a hundred years old, instead of being a young woman?
More importantly, if we consider Alear to be 1000+ years old, wouldn't it then make more sense to see his relationship with everyone as wholly inappropriate because of the massive age gap?
The usual thing they did since Awakening. The script in EN isnt canon to what actually happens in the scenes.
EOPs obviously cry because they live in a clown country ran by clowns. lmao.
I at least admired the stands in TMS were a little more creative than just force ghost versions of previous characters in the series
Well, it helps that the game is overwhelmingly better than any Awakening/post Awakening FE game 🙂 have a nice day
>source: my hopes and dreams
protip: I am playing it.
It's not better than anything and you're seething.
You got their origin at the start. You'll get more info about the specific emblem characters in their paralogues where you unlock the 2nd half of their skills.
Why is no one complaining about the fact that Bond rings are basically gacha?
>Gacha shit in a single player game
>vtuber character designs
>moeblob writing
Oh god it's Xenoblade Chronicles 2 again
If you've not kept your eyes closed for about a decade, FE tries multiple artstyles to aim for different age groups and demographics. Wouldn't expect a moronic homosexual to understand that though.
Protip, I am playing it as well. It's way fricking better than the 3DS trite. Kys
>It's way fricking better than the 3DS trite
why would anyone care what you have to say? You're a tasteless moron, of course you like the toothpaste MC in the Fire Emblem for children
lmao
Why would anyone care what a no-fun-allowed, reactionary autist like yourself has to say either? Your "criticism" of the game is pathetic shit that amounts to nothing.
>it amounts to nothing because I say it does
>everyone is wrong not me NA NA NA CAN'T HEAR YOU
sorry, tardbro. Game is 'mid' as frick as the kids say.
You can combine lower rarity rings into higher rarity ones, so it's not like you can get stuck never progressing.
Because its a minor feature and doesn't take real money.
What’s the currency you need for the gacha and how hard is it to get it
Bond fragments. It's easy to get it but you also need to use it to unlock emblem skills.
That doesn’t sound too bad, I expected Xenoblade 2 shit where they’re dropped by certain enemies and they have a low chance to drop
Nah, and in Xenoblade 2 you had weapons and quests locked behind the gacha, here they're only minor buffs to your units like +1 STR and such, unless you want to collect them for whatever reason
The bond rings themselves aren't even that important. Well, they are surprisingly more relevant than people thought before launch, after seeing their seemingly low stat bonsuses, due to some spoilers, but they aren't end-game material unlike the stuff locked behind Xenoblade 2's gacha.
Bond Fragments and you get them from several ways, completing achievements, your units give you some after a battle, by feeding/petting your dog...
Actual units aren't locked behind it, its fun side stuff. Whenever people immediately start screening about Xenoblade 2 I feel like they forget that shit.
hows its gacha?
getting randomize equipment been a thing since awakening with the meme weapons
I was complaining but it seems only now morons are waking up. Now, it’s not exactly gacha shit but this along with the character design is so obviously their first toe in the water for Heroes dogshit in a real FE game. For that crime alone it deserves to flop.
The second I saw the first announcement of the game and the "summon past heroes" shit, I knew this was the real goal. IS is taking the reigns again and their first move is "hmm, how can we direct more people to our gacha product?" The game is a mobile ad.
>adequately
they grabbed morons from other realities or from the past/future I don't know frick you.
>Do they adequately explain the cameos later
it's basically the story of a crossover gacha
>it's basically the story of a crossover gacha

Frick this, I don't care if the monastery sections are a drag. I'm going back to my buddies in Blue Lions.
>Blue Lions
Leaked too late, I don't care anymore.
I'm not even a 3H gay but I feel like I would have preferred another monastery not-Hogwarts thing to this. Like maybe do it 100 years in the past or whatever so completely different cast except for those few immortal ones like not-pope-with-wide-hips.
NSP where!?
>all the talkin runnin around and storytelling is cut back
good I just what my rock paper scissor combat
What? Have you played the game, moron? It's there, just completely shit now.
The weapon triangle is more important than it's ever been
now the Suikoden HD has a release date of March I think my best bet is to ditch this game and go beat Suikoden 5 first.
You should get on that. That game is really good

Lyn cucking Eliwood and Hector when she was originally the third wheel is hilarious, good for her.
>M*le byleth
ill never forgive them for that. haven't women suffered enough!?
There's only room for one autistic frog girl
What's the deal with the japs and the blue hair anyway?
I mean, Marth had it so, it kind of became a signature visual of the series. Note that not only the hair, you also had the Tyrfing from Genealogy of the Holy War looking almost identical to the Falchion. And Alm outright had another Falchion. They only started branching out in main sword design after Kaga left.
When they printed colored manga or created animations it was cheaper to use blue instead of black ink which also didn’t oversaturate the page/frame. It’s way Batman and the Punisher were so often depicted as wearing blue so often when their costumes were originally black. Overtime it just became the style
Celica and Lucina also cucked Alm and Chrom out of repping their own games. Pussy is more valuable than dick.
Celica, Lyn, and Lucina got in to have an equal amount of male and female Emblems
>but what about Ephraim
What ABOUT Ephraim? I don't see him in that ending picture, do you?
I didn't say shit about Ephraim. He and Eirika are both the protagonists, but Eirika is the default choice.
Yeah, Ephraim is in, but kind of shafted.
No bond conversations, since Eirika takes them.
No final battle dialogue with the Formotiis spirit thing.
He's barely more than a gameplay addition.
I really fricking love the fact that after everything Lyn and Mark and been throught, Mark just straight up leaves her like it was nothing. That shit must have mindbroken Lyn so fricking bad. Like imagine finding a random dude, taking care of him and basically rescuing him from death only for him to repay you by taking you back to the city that you haven't been to over a year since the bandit attack, only for that person to pay you back by doing everything possible to make you take back your grandfather country and visit him on his deathbed.
Surely you expect that guy to stay or attempt to wooe you? Nope he fricks off and say something cringe as "im a junior tactician, I need to go out there" like its nothing. Like everything he did was literally nothing and it was just homework.
Okay, couple of years later you run into that dude who been living rent free in your head for the past years, and this fricking person is already being someone else tactician like its nothing. Like you and him had not a special moment. He fricking BTFO the enemies like it nothing and makes 2 fricking countries so fricking horny for him that they go to war because of insanely good he was. Nobody knows where he went or what he is doing, but one thing is for sure. He gave zero fricks and viewed us fricking chess pieces.
and I still love him. We all do....please come back Mark...Did I say or do anything wrong? Please talk to me
It's insanely meta and it represents the player perfectly.
You appear out of nowhere, fix everything and frick off because you're bored now that the game is over.
Because that's all this is to you - a game. A mildly entertaining distraction.
All avatars should just frick off after completing a game, returning to your own world, ready to jump into another adventure when IS finally get their shit together and release another game.
Who gives a frick about some NPCs feelings?
Frick b***hes, acquire entertainment.
They should just make the next FE game an isekai. I just want to live in Fire Emblem dude.

>so fricking autistic he developed telepathy instead of social skills
What a chad.
Are they ever gonna remake Lyns and Marks game? This injustice must be fixed!
Hector was datamined to be in as DLC. He'll probably share his ring with Eliwood since the Three Houses leaders also share one.
>literally the SAME AGE as Alear
>romance censored by NoA
Getting too moronic, even for Twitter
Censored by NoJ first :^)
One look at the high school journal doodle protagonists should have told you everything you needed to know
Shut the frick up and consume the nostalgia, moron.
>it's not good so far.
No shit moron, didn't you see the designs of the protagonists? Looked like shit from the get go. Goyslop as frick.
Better than Sara Holland from Forspoken at least. FE engage has better character visual than this Wokeshit and will sell more than Forspoken.
Is MAAAAAAAARTH FE's CHARIZAAAAAAARD?
No way. Charizard is actually cool and heterosexual
>heterosexual
What's a Pokemon that's popular in Japan but not popular in oversees that westerners get assmad about? That would be Pokemon's Marth.
Marth is popular in the west due to Smash. This game was meant to appeal to smashgays in the first place.
Is she offering to be my new "mommy"?
>hard is actually kind of hard, even with the OP god hack rings
>weapon triangle is back
>break is an interesting change and the enemies can do it you
I'm having a lot of fun, my only problem so far is that my homie Sigurd's ring seems to suck.
sigurd's ring is broken who are you using it on? alfred and chloe use it best.
Explain to my moron brain why its good.
high mobility characters get to zoom across the map and the bond level 3 skill I think adds +1 attack per space moved which can push alfred and chloe into ohkos. canter is also a nice skill to have in general.
Anna is actually an Axe Fighter in this game, does that make her the second female Axe Fighter in the series?
Your pic isn't even the first.
>Starting Class: Hero
I'm talking Fighter as an actual class not just using an axe
Then Hilda is obviously supposed to be an Axe user, even if she can technically be whatever thanks to 3H's dumb class agnostic weapon system.
I posted this in the other thread but I had to let you guys know
don't worry, you can polish another dude's stones and he'll tell you how good it feels and how happy he is
ROMANCE CONFIRMED
Made me laugh in that thread and made me laugh here
son of a b***h
>be shota
>find ring
>hey there little guy, help a weak girl like me polish this ring?
>you know, you would be a great new addition to the dawn brigade
never played radiant dawn, is micaiah a shota hunter?
hot
And then this happened in the gacha
Literal groomer
wtf i want to play radiant dawn now and get groomed by micaiah
>literally raises a boy into her perfect husband
The marked deserved all the discrimination they recieved
Branded* i forgot the name
Anon, that happened in Radiant Dawn. They literally start the game already at max support level, you have to intentionally break them up to prevent them from getting married.
How is that a bad thing, again?
It's not. The only bad part about Micaiah marrying Sothe is that she should've married me instead. I was even the same age as Sothe when the game came out, it's not fair.
Same age of Sothe, but he is how she modelled him to be ever since she picked him up when he was just a child. How could you possibly compare to him?
that's the bullshit part, she could've picked me up as a child instead!
fricking prostitute
> like brother and sister
Do they think they're fooling anyone
Ephraim approves.
i dont really like how the characters eyes look in this. theyre too glossy or something i guess?
also is the main girls ass flat or not i cant get a good look at these spats
The ost slaps as per usual and there's some good renditions and medleys of the old themes as Trial songs for each emblem
?t=1101
>Do they adequately explain the cameos later
Yeah sure, there was uhhh dimension travel or something. Who cares, the cameos are stupid no matter what reason they pull out of their ass later.
the reason is that the game was supposed to release during fe's 30th anniversary and was made as a celeberatory game. it missed that deadline. people are forgetting crucial context.
Wait so the game is bad? Wtf, do I cancel my preorder or is this schizoposting?
Never preorder a game.
When enemies appear in a map you already beat, do they stay there forever?
On chapter 2 Sigurd mention his death, so my head canon right now is that all the character from previous games are dead and the rings summon their souls from whatever dimention they were originally from.
Dont expect anything from the writting of this game just in the first 1 hour you can easily what the plot revelation are going to be.
You're close. It's moreso the Emblems being manufactured copies with memories of the original's long passed spirit. The "heroes from the pages" if you will.
Wait, spirits pass on? But Sigurd's spirit is canon. When did it pass on?
What are you talking about. Engage's emblem characters are just copies based off the original hero's life and death in memory.
>Divine Dragon wants to help humanity fight evil dragon
>torrents a bunch of heroes souls from the throne of heroes
>Stuffs them in rings
Not sure what's so confusing about it, Marth.emb is just a pirated copy of Marth, his existence has no bearing on the real Marth since the copy was made without Marth's consent anyway.
You wouldn't download a hero.
Is there a level cap? Should I wait until level 20 to promote or should I promote as soon as level 10?
Generally wait to abput 14 or 15 if unsure. If you're getting filtered on a map then promote early.
I haven't played this game but this applies to every other game.
I just saw a review that basically said one of my worst fricking fears in the game.
Now, I know that what I get here isn't going to be 100% accurate because people love doomposting, but I honestly don't mind the censorship because I think the presentation carries the game and the combat looks fun.
HOWEVER, in the Gamespot review the reviewer mentions how Somniel shit becomes a boring and like checking off boxes in a short amount of time, things like cleaning up the rings. Said neglecting to do this can impact gameplay in a negative way, especially on Maddening. Can anyone confirm? I fricking hated shit like that in KH DDD, those stupid fricking minigames to let you get better dream eaters, and if the gameplay which looks good is impacted by neglecting this I will be pissed.
I want to fricking play my strategy game, not ring cleaner simulator.
Also, said that the same review mentions how Emblems are basically glorified Smash spirits, they have some lines and a paralogue but that's it as far as characterization goes. I could hardly call that a celebration of the series.
Yes, if you don't make Marth moan "KIMOCHI" every fight he loses stats
Polish your rings and choke down your censorship like a good consumer.
Thats what you gameplay gays wanted. Enjoy!
>how Somniel shit becomes a boring and like checking off boxes in a short amount of time
Kinda, yes
If you're expecting hopping from one chapter to the next you won't like the game, but on the other hand a lot of the stuff can be done through menus
And polishing the ring thing only seems to increase the bond with the Emblem, not necessary to do
Good. Cooking I don't mind but fricking having to polish rings.
The amount of bond you get from the ring rubbing is very small. Even on maddening I doubt it can be very relevant.
Cooking is pretty notable though, since it boosts multiple characters, but it's also pretty fast. This is the one thing you'll never want to skip even though it's just bonuses for the next battle.
The exercises take the longest, and are bonuses for the next battle like cooking, but generally seem smaller, so it feels pretty skippable.
Aside from the stores, other stuff just gives materials for Somniel features themselves, unrelated to the battles so they can be safely ignored too if you don't care for them.
Do u think it will sell more than Forspoken, which lacks character build for protag is too ugly and will never get merchandised as Nendroid,Plushie and Gacha collab?
It's definitely more of the magnitude of Pokémon's heavy petting than it is of 3H's sauna, happiness, classes cycle in regards to the impact it will have and time it takes. I have just been checking achievement rewards and doing donations, ring gacha, and grabbing all the items on the ground. Takes like 5 minutes, and without the items would probably take 2.
is there dual audio?
Yep.
What's the re-classing like? One of my gripes with 3H is everyone can do everything so it makes no one feel special.
Characters start with proficiencies in weapons that determine what class lines are available to them. You change with Second Seals like in Awakening.
You can expand a characters' options by getting them to bond 5 with an Emblem, different Emblems give different proficiencies. Then when you get new proficiency you can reclass them to new class lines.
Thx
Don't like it either so far, but surprised it allowed me to do this.
can you marry the hot blonde milf?
also is every character gay? i hate the male mcs design so fricking much and really dont want to play as him.
Can't marry the blonde milf but every character is bi and each S support is the same regardless of the mcs gender.
>can't marry the blonde milf
sad
>every character is bi and each S support is the same regardless of the mcs gender
holy based. goddamn i hate localizers, homos, and trannies for raping muh vidya, but ill let them off the hook just this once for giving me a way to avoid playing as this games ugly male mc while still being able to bang waifus.
gonna be honest, i dont understand the hype around this girl at all. she seems like a strictly inferior version of charlotte, effie, rinkah, or altina. like she has no presence at all. just a dumb generic little hebe with slapped on abs.
I don't understand what people see in an incredibly sweet girl who just so happens to embody physical perfection
>every character is bi
Sad. I like my waifus straight.
>You will never go to sleep every night with Etie's masterfully sculpted body pressed up against yours

Post the two-piece swimsuit pics
Who will look better on bikini? I think Framme,Veyle,Celine will look good in bikini.
Any streams?
Will Engage sell more than Forspoken? At least it has better character than Forspoken for Latter has too ugly protag that it abandoned entire character merchandising like Nendroid,Plushie,Gacha collab. Square should learn from Flopspoken that Cool character aesthetic sells, not "diverse" aesthetic like this.(skin color doesn't matter, cool or not is what matters for the game)
Pic related is Takuya crying after seeing FE engage's critic review.
FRICK THE FACT THEY COMMENT ON WHO DIES IN CLASSIC AFTER BATTLE IS FRICKING ME UP
most soulful fe game since echoes?
Didn't 3H already do that?
>3H
>Death
Good one, more like "retreat"
Anon, you're not supposed to play on casual mode.
Stop shitposting, they do actually retreat so they die or vanish by the end of the academy. No one really comments on ally deaths much during war phase either.
They do if the character dies during the second half.
No, only if you killed other students as enemies and even that was rare.
echoes did it first
>that est quote
jesus
Fricking nice! I loved this shit when I played Path of Radiance. Looks like I'm playing this game the way Kaga intended, no resets and no turning back time. If you play any other way you're a casual, simple as.
Maddening first playthrough i take it then?
I thought the subtitle said hebe for a second
>ALRIGHT, TIME TO ENGAGE
>YOU HAVE NO HOPE OF DEFEATING ME, NOT EVEN WITH YOUR EMBLEM

Was this game made as a joke?
why is it that dragons are the only race in FE to have a biological function that turns them evil
What are the MC's growths? My stats feel low, this is with the Seraph Robe and Energy Drop I've found so far.
What's the Gankererdict? Is this as good as Awakening/3H or is this Fates 2.0?
Above average gameplay with average story
I think the story is worse than Fates. It doesn’t even feel like a serious story honestly. It feels more like a cheap mobile advertisement
Please rewrite that as something less moronic.
Like literally what does that mean?
This anon below wrote it more eloquently than I did
That doesn't make a story worse than Fates. Engage' plot is predictable and sometimes cringe but never to the level Fates was. It's around GBA tier.
>It doesn’t even feel like a serious story honestly. It feels more like a cheap mobile advertisement
what?
> I think the story is worse than Fates
Impossible, Birthright was the only one that had any cohesion and it only managed that by being a snooze fest.
Will Engage sell more than Forspoken at least? At least Engage has better character than Forspoken. Forspoken has abandoned Character merchandise, by having ugly protag(no matter the skin color), which won't get any nendroid,plushie and Gacha collab.
That's a pretty low bar to get over.
Don't think so, Forspoken is a Square Enix game so it'll sell ok even if people don't like it, Engage will have more staying power tho
Forspoken won't have any character merchandise. Figma? Nendroid? Impossible. Gacha collab? Nah.
Forspoken should flop so that square can return to form.
Chaos game flopped though.
It did well actually
Was it just underrated by Critics??
It got mixed reviews, but in sales it was on several top 10 best selling lists
Just like Pokemon SV.
Did you get tired of spamming the catalog with Forspoken threads?
Because it gets released by 1 week difference.
And? This is a FE thread. Go take your Forspoken hatewank somewhere else.
Objectively wrong. There is not a single moment in the game that's as frustratingly awful and tears itself apart the way Fates does.
Awakening is Fates-tier, don't kid yourself.
never reply to me again Kaga-gay

I stopped caring about fire emblems story after fates, how are the maps?
Fun and hard in higher difficulties. Maddening/Classic blind is ripping peopel's buttholes apart especially since skirmishes are disabled in the difficulty.
Suhweet
let's going!
soul soul soul soul soul SOUL SOUL SOUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How's the music for the Engage?
so is there a morality system that changes your hair color depending on good or evil choices or is that debunked? Are there any chocies to make at all?
It's one ending only, choices don't affect anything. The intro and beginning gives away the Alear twist anyway and it's not worth talking about.
Is the brown girl one that I can actually romance, or is she in the "friends forever :D" category?
She's in open relationship tier. I think you can count the number of for (You) girls allowed in NA's Engage on one hand.
halp part 3 is the only one i can't dwonload
So Alfred is definitely gay, right?
He's obsessed with his retainer's muscles and invited Clanne for a "private exercising session".
Quiet you fat fujo.
>Omigosh is this straight character, GAY?
>straightest Fire Emblem character
Can't believe they put Ganker in FE.
None of them have cried about their height yet tho
does anyone have a webm of Alcryst's dogeza?
top comedy
This explains a lot.
Jesus.
At least Awakening was good.
Too bad she went full moron after that.
>At least Awakening was good.
Reroll yourself.
He’s just too moronic to see all the issues with Awakening’s story.
At least Awakening put the slightest amount of effort into their 'OMG REMEMBER MARTH?'.
Not really. Besides I wasn’t even talking about that, aspie. I was talking about the entire story being 3 disconnected arches, pointless macguffins, and a completely contrived ending where arbitrary rules are established and then thrown away every chapter just to culminate in a forced payoff. There was also literally zero reason for the kids going back in time since they accomplished nothing, including Lucina, especially when you consider that Robin begins the game with a premonition about the single event she managed to warn them about
>Besides I wasn’t even talking about that, aspie.
And I was, moron.
Don’t care, homosexual
Piss off, human.
>At least Awakening was good.
Surely you're jesting.
I thought fates main writer was some LN author?
Holy shit, why is she so stacked?
Yes
I always choose my romance option based on their tit size. I assume her S support isn't censored?
Could really use some cleavage.
Do we have average stats/growths for everyone yet? Because so far my Louis is a fricking god, my Celine's had like 4-5 perfect or near perfect levels, and Toothpaste-kun is only keeping up with getting heavy favoritism from forges, stat boosters, and bond shit, hell he STILL has one less Str than fricking Celine (9 Str LV 12 vs Celine's 10 Str Lv 11) and he got the fricking Energy Drop too.
Right now I'm playing on hard and it's been quite easy so far, is normal just braindead easy?
>engage discussion has come down to insufferable shitposting about "censorship" and how suddenly everyone likes 3 houses or fates being home
First Xenoblade and now this shit. Can fricking have fun or have a healthy discussion about anything now days. Everyone is too chronically online and autistic.
Both has bikini while prequel doesn't.
Kick the localizers out and not only you'll have comfy discussion but better games too.
Ooor you can pick fights with the anti-censorship crowd hoping they leave your threads alone.
That's like asking me to go to heaven and hell to bring Satan and God in for a discussion about puppies. Is not possible. If Fates didn't put the localizers in limbo, nothing will.
>nooo the threads are mindless praise from people mind broken by 3H now
Blame IS and NoA for fricking the game.
*aren't
It’s probably backlash from all the insufferable shilling from mindless autistic fanboys assblasted by 3H ODing on hype. The initial “return to form” and all the goalpost moving since then has really poisoned the well of discussion
Snoytroon shitposters are getting desperate.
It's pretty sad since this is by far the least censored FE game yet.
So when do you unlock the ability to switch/upgrade classes?
Is Chapter 7 the worst map in the game or is there a worse map somehow?
Filtered
Is that the one on the border of 2 kingdoms? I think im about to play that one
It is, it's fricking awful, all maps have been at least decent so far but Chapter 7 is terrible
Are martial arts supposed to be secretly effective vs armored or something? This is the only time I've ever seen Framme's damage be above 1.
sorry sweetie, we don't talk about gameplay here
Alear's skill is +3 to FINAL damage to adjacent units. This means if you'd do 0, like most martials arts usually do unless you're gigachad Jean, it does 3 instead.
alright but does it run ok on the shitch?
PC is better
Runs pretty smooth in handheld, though its a bit choppy docked, unless you can overclock

I guess I have shit taste then...
It's just the end result of a shitpost spiral
Yes you do.
Yeah I'd struggle to find anything that sticks out as game ruining, at worst it can be sort of bland. I think it lacks a strong creative vision, but instead it plays really well.
Anyone else experiencing crashes right after a support conversation? They happen very rarely but the few times my game crashed were right after a support
It's not a big deal because I save often but still
In my opinion it's actually really fricking good, it completely shits on 3H in literally every department. I've been playing for 10 hours nonstop.
The only thing that sticks out to me as negative is that the Emblems are fricking BROKEN, seriously Louis/Sigurd breaks the game so hard and you get that shit by like Chapter 4. Micaiah's global heal is completely busted, and so much more. It's definitely fun but it feels kinda illegal to be able to break the game this easily
Are you playing on hard or maddening? Hoping maddening isn't a cakewalk even with the emblems
Playing on Hard, haven't touched Maddening yet but with Louis/Sigurd I can't imagine Maddening being very brutal. Louis/Sigurd combo takes 0 (zero) damage from anything that isn't Mages, can move ten (10) units for three turns (this ability also regens), has auto-Horseslayer as a weapon, has Canto, oneshots (yes literally oneshots) practically EVERYTHING because Emblem Sigurd makes your damage increase the more panels you traverse. Also Louis has great growths so this start never stops working. Also Sigurd eventually gives you a free Brave Lance, so Louis' nonexistent Speed is forever irrelevant.
It's absurd, you'll see
>Louis/Sigurd combo can move ten (10) units for three turns (this ability also regens)
*travels halfway across the map to slap your ass and imagine your waifus having sex with each other*
Animation and maps are better, thats it. Writing, character design and especially music all suck ass. Im still unsure about gameplay, some changes are nice, while some are just annoying
Louis is the most broken early game character still on maddening.
The only thing thats difficult on maddening is the odd map objective, which requires shit like warp ragnarok to get in time + revival stones making shit drag out.
The real issue with maddening is that on your first playthrough it has fixed stat growths which is fricking awful.
is the turnwheel still 10 uses ?
Yes
Yeah, but only if you start on it. If you start on maddening and lower difficulty, they're still fixed.
>The real issue with maddening is that on your first playthrough it has fixed stat growths which is fricking awful.
Still can't believe that shit is real. From what I understand, it's only maddening that has fixed growths right? Hard is still random.
I can only assume you're locked into fixed growths for maddening at first so you won't be stat screwed. It's still dumb but at least I kinda get it.
How do you use master seals in this game? I tried equipping them to promotable characters but you can't equip it to them. The seals are in the storehouse and it won't let me use them.
boob mods are already happening
the game is saved
ass mod to make Celine's ass fill her outfit when?
or a boob mod instead
>already have boob mods
>nobody wants to remove the localization
it's over
Boob mods are a lot easier than changing an entire script, anon.
>entire script, anon.
But the only thing that needs to be changed are the s-ranks and endings. Everything else os fine
Anyone else having issue with the resolution suddenly going low? I have it set to 4x, but sometimes it goes to default and the characters look pixelated.
Holy shit, is there a way to exploit Great Sacrifice to gain a ton of levels quickly? Almost every time I use it I get a full level up
Question, why are bosses moving? I'm used to the map's boss being completely still, is it because I'm playing on hard and usually I play FE on normal first so I'm not used to it or are Engage bosses just built differently?
No, even on hard old Fire Emblems mostly had stationary bosses, this game is different.
Played chapter 4 on hard.
The game isn't as hard as conquest but it is easily the second hardest game to come out since the 3DS era, it feels like descision actually matter instead of "place overpower unit in a tile, click wait and win".
I would say it has around the same difficulty as Binding Blade.
Wait till you get to the next map. My advice is, if you split units have both have 1 mage each
Really? It’s been pretty easy so far on hard from my experience and I’m on chapter 9
I'm up to chapter 6 on maddening myself and while I do think the game could be a little more difficult (at least in the early chapters), I do generally agree with this sentiment. Chapter 5 at least had genuinely non-trivial enemy formations and I've gone from being very skeptical of the break mechanic to loving it as it helps keep stronger units in check while also allowing your shitters to meaningfully contribute. On maddening the enemy stats have also been high enough to be threatening without feeling unfair.
I don't mind that aspect of it at all, but the story and premise themselves are mobile game tier in both concept and execution so far. The emblems are mechanically fun, but that's about as far as I can appreciate them.
Anon, you're a fricking moron. They already explained it in the fricking second cutscene of the game.
The Fell Dragon came and shitted on the Divine Dragons, some of them decided to summon Heroes from Other Worlds to give them a fighting chance, then Lumera used the 12 rings to BTFO the Fell Dragon.
The 12 Rings are the Fire Emblem of Elyos.
Whos the final boss or real baddie?
You
awakening already did that anon
Final boss does ressembles to Grima
Engage has the same writer as Awakening and Fates and she reuses major plot points.
And Fates did the “mother dies in your arms after saving your life” shit first but Engage still copied it
Final boss is just the fell dragon, no twist there. The actual end-game twist is that Alear gets killed off by the boss. Then the emblems revive Alear as the 13rd Emblem, although Alear can still take physical form, so basically nothing changes.
So, i heard that everyone in this game is bisexual. Is this true, bros? Did they finally delete heterosexuality from FE?
Yes
Yes. Ingrid would be so sad.
That image is obsolete. This is how Ingrid would be, now. You have lost, accept it.
>Everyone is Bi
That would probably still piss off the homosexuals and dykes either way, on top of the the normal straight people.
The gays who get mad about fictional characters being romancible by both a male or female PC instead of being exclusively gay are a minority so small that literally no one gives a shit about them. It doesn't matter how loudly they screech, they're still a tiny number of voices in the sea. Most homos/fujos/gays who actually buy the games are perfectly happy with the "everyone is MCsexual" mechanic.
Making everyone bisexual sucks because it's lazy writing and homogenizes relationships. It's the dumbest pandering bullshit you could possibly do in a game where you get to pair up with a character.
If you're going to add gay romance, do it in a way that's compelling.
No thanks. I like everyone being bi and the PC being treated the same regardless of their sex.
NOA doesn't want that. Note that back in Fates the localization outright ERASED lines from the Niles/Shara where they talked about prejudice against homosexual relationships and just used the same script as the hetero counterparts.
They probably think that gets too political for a Nintendo published game. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if the whole "remoxing any implications of romances with minors" was done mostly due to the whole "everyone is bi" stuff. They want to avoid the idea of homosexual/bi minors.
>If you're going to add gay romance, do it in a way that's compelling.
Shouldn't romances being compelling in general? The character being gay doesn't need to be more of a special deal than whatever their arc is in general. Sexuality is rarely a big deal for characters so just let shipper frick what they want.
They tried that with Rhajat, NoA got super butthurt at the idea that a lesbian could feel insecure about not being able to give her lover a child and removed it, then nuked the idea of gender varied relationships so hard Edelgard cucks Male Byleth with Ferdinand because she refuses to give MByleth a kid since that wouldn't be fair to FByleth.
>it's not good so far
Idk, the story and characters are shit but I'm having fun.

What an idiot. He should have approached Alfred with that offer.
I must've been sleeping under a rock. I didn't know the Switch emulators were running this well. Getting 100fps with Engage.
Been great for a while. I haven't used my Switch in like two years. Beat SMT5 and XC3 on emu.
Are you using Yuzu or Ryujinix? I wonder if my "was high end 10 years ago" PC could run a Switch emulator well.
Ryujinx
Didn't realize that, thanks.
Yuzu has a lot of visual bugs.
It's speed up though if you play at 100 fps.
Why is the controller camera speed so fricking fast
Is switching rings after you get to bond 10 the winning strategy or is it unnecessary?
IS IT RUNNING BETTER ON YUZU OR RYUJINX?
dunno about yuzu but Ryujin runs flawlessly on my toaster
TY
Yuzu was dogshit for me but Ryujinx works fine. Your mileage may vary though.
So is this a reclass ASAP game or a wait until level 20 game

>btw now you can polish rings between battles
>btw now you can give gifts to people between battles
>btw now you can pick up random shit from your farm animals between battles

Yea, I'm out. Who thinks any of this chore bullshit adds literally ANYTHING to the game? Also what is the point of letting you run around the battlefields if you can't actually do anything besides pick up the items. No puzzles, no interactivity, nothing. Just turning the spoils menu into a tedious 5 minute affair. Another waste of time.
