Topic: Fire Emblem Warriors

@Beedrill4Smash yup, it's a reward in one of the moon squares in the Termina map. So... A very late game reward.

@Meowpheel Ah well thats a shame as I can't go back to the game since my WiiU gamepad keeled over.

@Beedrill4Smash Could you not use a Pro controller? I think wii remote and nunchuck is an option too but I'd rather not use that...

@Kimyonaakuma You can use a Pro controller but playing Hyrule Warriors without the Gamepad is like playing both Splatoon games without gyro controls, it makes the game harder.

@Grumblevolcano Does it? I usually play with the pro controller and I've not found much of a difference. Most of the same information appears on the screen at some point anyway and if I forget you can just check the pause menu...

@Kimyonaakuma Well it's about planning, like you can notice that an ally is in trouble before the TV screen shows that they're in trouble.

@Grumblevolcano That's a good point, I'm just used to the game telling me when it's too late

RIP to the many Goron captains that have had to retreat because I was too busy with other things...

Indeed, buy Mario Odyssey twice because it will be that good

@Kimyonaakuma I don't have a pro controller anyway...

DLC confirmed.

Fates DLC later this year, Shadow Dragon DLC in early winter 2018, and Awakening DLC in spring 2018.

I'm guessing this is how we get missing characters like Azura, or Vaike.

¥3000 for all 3 or ¥1400/ea

Pretty disappointed with the first DLC...
We get more Fate/Awakening (and a finally a decent cast for SD )
Yet there won’t be other series represented still? (Aside from Lyn and Celica)

@JaxonH I had a feeling that would be the case given the DLC for the Wii U version of Hyrule Warriors. Twili Midna is a Twilight Princess character and while some of Young Link's moveset is based on Majora's Mask, he's technically an Ocarina of Time character hence outside of Tingle you've only got more characters from the games the base Hyrule Warriors focused on (OoT, TP, SS). The roster game source didn't really expand until Legends and the 2nd season pass.

@Grumblevolcano I was worried that it would follow the same pattern as HW. The small appearances from Lyn and Celica had me hopeful...

I'm not sure how they would do a legends version of FE Warriors though, it's already coming to Switch and 3DS.

The past games just aren't popular enough.

It is what it is. Focusing on the last 3 games is good enough for me (Heroes of Light and Shadow kind of falls into the same fold as Shadow Dragon).

After all, there are a good many characters I love from the DS/3DS entries (hoping for Sumia! Pleeease!).

I like the older entries too but, it's whatever. Fire Emblem is Fire Emblem. I'm just happy to see more Shadow Dragon characters, and Lyn and Celica. The original FE has representation via Shadow Dragon characters, and Gaiden has representation via Celica. Mystery of the Emblem has representation via Shadow Dragon characters, Blazing Sword via Lyn, and everything from FE11-14 is represented. The only games missing really, are Genealogy of the Holy War and Thracia 776 from SNES, Binding Blade and Sacred Stones from GBA, and Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn for GC/Wii. Not bad, out of 14 games only 6 lack representation. I think that's good, anyways.

The only older characters I really would have cared to see would have been Eliwood, Hector, Roy, Ike, Erika/Ephraim and Micaiah... I like the SNES games (the chapters I've played anyways) but not too attached to any character, tbh. But... ok so that's actually still a fair few. But I have a feeling Ike is in the game. There is a character or two yet to be revealed and I have a feeling with his popularity, and the fact Lyn and Celica are in, that Ike will be in as well.

@Kimyonaakuma I think if the Wii U had a bigger install base, the Hyrule Warriors Legends exclusive content like the extra Adventure maps as well as Linkle and Wind Waker content would've come to the Wii U version. So I think if a FE Warriors Legends was to exist, it would be a re-release of FE Warriors with all the DLC and some extra content which if you already own the game you can buy as an expansion.

Dropped the ball with the first DLC, if you ask me. Need more Tellius and Elibe reps. I don't think I'll be getting the game until all the DLC is done (and depending on what includes, on sale), but I'm still slightly interested.

As an observation: man, the SNES FE fans get the short end of the stick every time, huh? What was the last time those games were even acknowledged? Awakening's DLC, I guess? Brawl's stickers before that?

Some? It's mostly Majora's Mask, especially since his specials involve FD Link. Also, YL tends to be in FD form more often than not

@MarcelRguez SNES overall would be FE Warriors (Mystery of the Emblem is a SNES game), regarding FE4 and FE5 specifically it would be FE Heroes (characters like Reinhardt are in).

@JaxonH It's not that past characters aren't as popular (look at the CYL poll); it's that IS deems them less exploitable (with the sole exception of Lyn).

They've undone every bit of goodwill including Lyn and Celica got them. The omnipresent belief was that other games would get representation through DLC. But they've killed that.
I feel like this may be a rude awakening for IS.

@CrazedCavalier Earlier in this thread there was something about Nintendo requesting some characters for FE Warriors, I think those requests were Lyn and Celica.
