What IS the answer?

Clearly, she anticipates only taking hits to her shins, hips, and arms. Didn't want all that other useless armor needlessly weighing her down.

Or maybe this.

Or my personal favorite dumb excuse.

Female design stats from that character page:

  • 6/10 have exposed torsos
  • 4/6 of those with exposed torsos also have panties as part of the costume design
  • 1/2 of those without panties is basically everything else wrong with Japanese character design rolled into one
  • 3/4 of those without exposed torsos were designed around a particular fetish
  • 1/10 seems normal enough, though still not dressed for combat (high heels, ceremonial outfit, etc)

Or it's just crappy character design

It's just crappy character design... for once I'm actually looking forward to hearing that the "far too conservative west" have censored the artwork.

I don't think it should be censored on principle, but this crappy character design is definitely going to affect this game's marketability in the west.

Well the first one is at least plausible!

Although I do have to say I think it's a bit disingenuous for those pretending the only problem is bad character design. I don't buy that. If it was bad character design but not in a sexualised direction, the reaction wouldn't be as bad. No-one complains about ridiculously large swords this much. Or, as I mentioned, the infamous bandages wrapped around the Buster Sword in Kingdom Hearts.

Hmmm, it'll be interesting to see the boxart on this one... come back Senran Kagura, all is forgiven!

I am happy to complain about Nomura's character designs all the live long day.

To be fair, they got the bandage thing from Bleach...and everyone complains about Bleach...

Looks like Fire Emblem with the visual quality at about 70%

the animation style and gameplay looks an homage to the mega drive days.

it's like fire emblem but with a little more going on. the turns take a little longer but if the game is anything like langrisser 1 or 2, i think it's a must for fire emblem fans.

It's gotten an average review from Famitsu 6/7/7/6, I've been tearing through a few tatical RPGs lately and I'm always on the look for my next fix so this may do if it gets a Western release.

That's pretty bad from Famitsu for such a blatantly Japan-intended game.

This game came out under the radar. I'm casually looking through the eshop and there it was first game in the new section. I'm curious to know if anyone had played it. I feel like I need something new to play and this could fit the bill.

@CaviarMeths: So my issue with the men are easily distracted excuse aside from the fact that it is still an asinine reason to go out unprotected is twofold. It implies that the female warrior can't fight a male one unless his eyes are glued on her body which leads to my other issue. So what happens when she fights a homosexual male? Does she call over a guy warrior and strip off his clothes as a decoy?

Like I'd rather guys be honest. "I designed her like this because I'm a lech" makes way more sense than trying to have the female character make up some pandering excuse that no female on earth would believe. Anyway I've got this preordered (kinda don't need it since I'm still working through Fire Emblem ) but I'll post my impressions when I get it.

Same here, I'm tempted to buy it but I'm wating on reviews/player feedback. I'm not ecpecting greatness from it but as long as it's decent I'll be happy.

Lol I was kind of confused by the email notification I got for this thread. I didn't even remember posting in it. Came from almost a year ago. One of those pics I posted isn't even hosted anymore. Pretty sure it was this though.

This game really did just fly under the radar. Nobody on NL have a copy yet?

Man,

I would assume no review copies were sent out, and no one is really interested in this game.

I am searching high and low and would love to read some professional reviews on this game. Can't find nothing. It is, afterall, still a month before I can play FE: Fates, and I finished Codename Steam and FE: Awakening a long time ago. However, it would seem either no one is really interested, or they all just started reviewing it once it was released.

Come on NL, surely Thomas has booted it up by now !

I pre ordered this. I'm just waiting for my copy to show up.

Want: Harvest Moon: One World, Story of Seasons: Pioneering Town, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury

Finished the Alola Dex.
Now playing New Horizons, Wrath of White Witch and Sword

I'm interested in reading reviews myself. The gameplay vid I saw a while ago was less than stellar to say the least, but it may yet prove to be alright.
