Fire Emblem thread: Now with more permadeath!

Bro FE Heroes borderline about to get dropped forever. I have no issue with Fates and Awakening getting a little extra focus since they are the most known right now, and are freshest in people’s minds, but the fucking Christmas BANNER was just Awakening folks, now switch to Fates for New Years. I been playing this actively since they had that Brave Heroes free unit thing, and since then the only banners I can think of that weren’t garbage were the ones that had Elincia and Nephenee, and I guess the Arya and Sigurd ones even though IS purposely put those 2 in diff banners, and dropped them at a time where there wasn’t much to do to get orbs, so niggas more or less had to spend if they didnt have orbs saved.

Like cmon now, I get that some FEs hard to hype up here due to not being localized, but at the very least they can Eliwood’s game-Radiant Dawn since those are world wide, ECHOES dropped this year and I figured that would have some focus since that’s fresh in people’s minds and got good reception

Those games don’t have Tits McGee, Furries, OC donut steel self-inserts, or Thot-ja, so fuck 'em.

Actually several of the older games have their own slightly less explicit versions Tits, Furries and goth chick’s. The self inserts with their own art are new however but half naked men and women art is a FE staple.

Linde being showing unnecessary skin off since the 90s.

This is true, but those characters were always bit players and background characters who never got even an ounce of the marketing these new otaku lures get.

That’s not even what annoys me, but rather the entire rest of the franchise’s characters get pushed aside for these one-note archetypes.

I remember when people used to complain about Ike being shallow… He looks like Dragonball Super Vegeta compared to a character like Corrin.

Just waiting for seasonal Linde. She was my 2nd 5* after rerolling for Lyn, then made me start Shadow Dragon and so on.

Takumi’s weapon is pretty nuts.

I dunno on the one hand a flying singer sounds nice but on the other hand I’m shocked and appauled that the only games in the series to really get events tieing in with actual holidays are taking the lion’s share of holiday events :coffee:

To be fair or at least play devil’s advocate, Awakening and Fates are Intelligent Systems first Mega successful games outside of Mario spinoffs. The upper management probably honestly don’t think it might be able to get pulls on other banners.

To be honest as my opinions as a fan, it is either short sighted BS or one of the top people behind those games specifically playing favorites to games they were part of. FE Heroes has the potential and in someway has grown the FE fanbase while exposing them to the older games and characters. Yet by focusing on the recent popular games in not just one but EVERY Single spinoff they have recently put out without fail the bias and lack of will to promote older games is clear. Ike and the cast of The Blazing Sword are pretty popular outside of Japan yet they rarely get decent spotlight or a showcase.

So I pulled off the new Legends banner for Waifu Charlotte and got blue screwed. I was gonna quit out, but then decided to pull red cause what the hell, and…

5-Star Sigurd?!? Fuck you, @Bious

Damn! That’s an amazing set of rolls.

A new voting gauntlet has opened up, and it’s the Winter Units versus the New Yea- I mean 3 of the New Year units and Ryoma. Apparently Male Corrin is taking a holiday.

I was going to join Lissa’s side but the Ryoma meme team is too good to pass up (Also I want revenge on thotjra.)

Anyway Happy New Year!

I’ll pick the winning side and back Tharja.

Fine, go bitch! Have fun with your fake win!

:frowning:

I’m at 4% now… if that shit breaks with an off-banner, I will quit this game for good. I haven’t pulled a banner 5* in months. Don’t plan to spend.

Holy crap Camilla lost.

Holy crap Ryoma won!

And I guess Tharja, Azura, and Lissa did too.

Fuck yes, now we just need the internets to rally against Thotja and Lissa could actually win this.

I feel bad… but also happy because hours before the defeat I pulled 2 five star New year Camillas via summons. If losing this voting gauntlet was necessary so be it.

A 5* hawkeye broke my pity rate… but since we get those new year quests and crap, got 20 orbs back real quick and was finally able to get a Camilla.

Now for Azura…

Man fuck Hawkeye, been broken by Peri and Soren so far this banner getting broken by units available at 4* with no 5* exclusive skills sucks.
