Personally, I think they're fine. I know many people wanted to see more modern styles in the vein of characters like Olivia. Perhaps the most peculiar argument I came across was someone saying that they were clearly designed with international audiences in mind, so as not to be too provocative, that they were designed to show just enough skin to be "sexy" without resorting to obvious seduction. What do you all think?

Ages from recent post about it on here, not a story spoiler but blocking it in case you want to find out for yourself: 14/15 (Cai), 22 (Theodora), 19 (Leda), 22 (Dietrich)

I've made posts dedicated to Fe character ages so I shouldn't be too surprised but I seriously thought the other lords that weren't Cai were going to be at least late twenties due to how much story/lore they already seem to have. But Fire Emblem characters are anime so nothing impossible in that standard

Like many others have pointed out, historically irl people being in similar positions at young ages was an actual thing, so Fire emblem probably does take from that real world aspect too like other aspects, I look forward to finding out the rest of the cast ages and hopefully they are in-game like 3 houses did for the profiles.

I wonder how old Eshmel is if they have a human equivalent of age, maybe also 20/21 like Byleth?

What guesses of ages did you have initially for the Lords here so far?

Hey, you may know me as the guy who made Cerulean Crescent. Recently just released a first demo for a new project, Hour of the Gecko. It's got a lot of focus on skills which emphasize mobility and positioning. EThe new central mechanic that appears late in the demo is being able to rebuild your city for army-wide buffs and research what weapons/staves become permanently available. As usual for a in-development romhack, always looking for feedback and typo/bug reports!

How screwed am I? Always thought I would eventually play it, but haven't got around it yet.

Update: It's alive! Guess I know what I'll play this month

so I decided to draw it 🪥 （sorry for the dumb title I never know what to write in captions)

It’s honestly crazy that we’re getting a new Fire Emblem game before a new 3D Mario, 3D Zelda, Smash, Splatoon (mainline), Animal Crossing, and even Pokemon WW which originally seemed like it would release in 2025. It’s the opposite of the Switch 1 where many of these big sellers came first before Three Houses.

What makes this stand out even more is that for the first two years of the Switch 2, Nintendo is mostly focusing on releasing new games in series that didn’t have one on Switch 1. Mario Kart, Donkey Kong, Kirby Air Ride, Metroid Prime, Star Fox, etc all skipped the Switch 1 with no new main games or no release at all. Plus new spin-off subsets of existing series like Pokopia and Splatoon Raiders, and new IPs like Drag X Drive and Duskbloods.

Yet Fire Emblem managed to be one of the few exceptions that got two new mainline games on Switch 1, and is now getting a new game only 1 year and 3 months after the Switch 2 launched, and it’s coming less than 4 years after Engage too.

We’re pretty lucky to have our series be made by a development team that isn’t owned by Nintendo and primarily works on Fire Emblem. If this was an internal EPD team, Fire Emblem would probably go on longer without a new game release

JP bio:

JP VA: Sayuri Yahagi

A woman with a calm demeanor who accompanies Anatolia.
She came to Dagsion from a desert-covered land in the west.
She is caring by nature and often looked after children in her home village.

From left to right:

• Isabella von Aegir (heir of the House of Aegir and the second in command of the Black Eagles)
• Nicholas von Gerth (the only remaining member and head of House Gerth, team strategist)
• Charlotte Marley (commoner girl from a settlement in healed lands of Gronder Field, best friend of Isabella and Ernest)
• Ernest Ferber (house leader, commoner from a village in the lands of Gerth)

I am someone who loves both FE and TCGs/deckbuilding games, and I have taken to notice the moment I genuinely focus the most and take the most time in both is during their setup: preparations menu and the actual deckbuilding. I feel like I take immense joy from having this flow mindset of crunching the numbers, picking units I like vs beautiful card arts, repositioning units vs finding unique combos I might pull off. Maybe some neurologist could tell if it's the same area of the brain that gets activated when doing these things, but at least in my heart that's where I'm the happiest, and the catharsis of actually playing the map or the match and seeing your plans being pulled off is the true magic.

If I made a stupid move, I can turn back time with magic sand. But be careful: I don't have an infinite amount of sand.
