Fire Emblem 3DS

[Der Jermeister]

I might actually give the series a second chance with this one since they're making permadeath optional.

I like the permadeath. Forces me to plan better.

Either that or restart a lot.

[Eusis]

I appreciate the option though, especially since I could play somewhat casually THEN, if I care enough, do a "no death" playthrough.

As you might have noticed, I was pretty happy to see this get announced. Even if it was kind of accidental on Reggie's part.

Guess I better get that purple 3DS.

With you there kyuusei. Same color too, the purp is for true nobility. *dons crown*

I mean, I really like FE's gameplay, and I love customizable main characters who play a major role in the story, as well as the ability to pair characters up, which is a gift Fire Emblem has consistently given, so I basically love everything about this game already.

[kyuusei]

So it won't be out until next year, but at least we'll be getting the DLC too.

And speaking of which, a second batch of DLC is being released in Japan starting later this week.

(There's also a video but I've decided to hold off on posting a link to it due to massive spoiler reasons.)

Unlike the last set, this DLC set looks to be more focused on either giving your post game team something to do with ridiculous challenges, adding extra conversations between characters to better flesh them out along with goofy alternate costumes, or by letting you tackle a major plot event that more or less occurred behind the scenes of the game's standard plot.

Eh. It's a small price to pay for an otherwise awesome game.

Besides there'll be a beach side and hot springs DLC map. It'll (probably) include a new Swimsuit class.

Did I accidentally walk into a Tales game thread?

I really am super excited for this. I've played A LOT of Fire Emblems. And even though they are usually VERY similar, they constantly entertaining.

I have to agree - I love FE. It's the characters, I tell you

im speechless...not just the sheer amount of characters but look at the last character in each category in case some dbag would consider that a spoiler.

Smash Bros. and Pokémon to make a ton of money with DLC confirmed.

I guess Japan really can't resist the allure of Beaches and Hot Springs episodes.

Sarcasm aside, and to be fair, the game kinda needed the DLC since the ingame postgame isn't really enough to get your millage out of everything like class changing, the kids, and post game characters (let alone Spot Pass and DLC characters). And hell, even into their second set of DLC they're still releasing new DLC characters.

Oh wow that looks amazing. Almost all of my favorites are there. Sad to see no Azel from Genealogy Gen 1, but oh well. The most important thing is that Ira is recruitable. Woot!
