They need to just go all out and let you throw whip cream pies at your squad.
It's a easy skip for me. I have my eye on Redemption Reapers. That looks like a Fire Emblem game to me and has Path of Radiance devs involved. Fire Emblem was revived by Awakening but it suffered a terrible price in becoming a waifu farming simulator. It's been success coasting off of it for a while now.
I pretty much agree, but I'm going to give it one last shot out of pure stubbornness. The only FE game I didn't finish was 3 Houses. Just ended up really disliking it. January is looking pretty open for me, so I'm going to give it a shot. I'm not buying any of the DLC crap though. You're right, it 100% looks like it's marketed towards the Heroes crowd. You're right about Fates as well honestly.
Maybe because they're not that big to have two teams on separate games and don't want to risk loosing the mainline mindshare they've gotten already... I don't care about the new art style and I like it but definitely the scheduling thing in 3H must go to never come back
I haven't looked into it, but I wonder if they rotate the development team between releases.
I asked OpenAI about it. It sounds… exactly like something this depraved fanbase would go crazy for:
Probably won't sell as much. And I don't think they can pull off FE4 with it's amount of dark themes. FE4 done right could be quite a meaty experience but I just don't think they are up to it.
Well I plan on playing it on release and I'll post impressions. If nothing else, I do like how colorful it is and the animations seem smooth and visually pleasing.
Three Houses was mostly developed by Koei Tecmo, the studio known for the Warriors games. The art and character designs were done by a woman who draws for a primarily female audience. I think that was definitely noticeable.
The character design alone is reason enough for me to pass on this one. In a better timeline Fire Emblem went the FF Tactics route of grounded medieval setting instead of whatever this is.
I guess I can understand. Competition is tight when it comes to SRPGs since Triangle Strategy and Tactics Ogre came out recently, so I guess they have decided on going after a different demographic.The main characters looks bad but honestly it's the whole game.
Every time in these previews when they open a party menu it's something like this:
80% weeb waifus
Look at this silly overdesigned stuff:
it's like they took the worst character of Awakening, Nowi, and went "ok that's what your entire party will be like now"
I just know I'll stick with whoever the Tsundere is and over level them until they're a cold killing machine (but really they're sweet on the inside).The main characters looks bad but honestly it's the whole game.

Still seems weird to me.
Awakening was such a big hit that revitalized the franchise, and aside of a few characters (like Nowi) I think it did a decent job at striking a good balance between staying true to the franchise while "weebing" it up enough to bring in a new audience .
Even three houses which was also very successful had a different but still mostly grounded design.
I don't get why they felt they needed to go this hard on the weeb side.

On further inspection it looks like you probably cannot.
This seems pretty good in my book, I hate being interrupted by stuff other than the reasons I like FE in first place, I enjoy those stuff a lot when they're not putting a barrier between the main game and me, specially when the game asks me to choose between doing battles or more school shit... and the later is the one that makes my characters actually get better on their masteries...
Yes the pathetic 2023 schedule that hasnt been revealed yet.
This, except i don't agree that Engage being more "traditional" (whatever that means) be used as a poor excuse for criticism from some fans and press , it has some familiar elements like an Evil Dragon and classic characters, so what?
imo It still looks better than Three Houses in practically every way , long running franchises always take things that worked from the past to refresh them up, it happens with the best gaming series like Zelda, Mario, Resident Evil, etc. Fire Emblem Engage looks awesome and just because its trying other things than the last entry doesn't make it bad, i believe the ones complaining more were just expecting Three Houses part 2, and are dissapointed because the new one looks too colorful/"Anime" for them
