Come to think of it, you have a point. I mean, we've had Est, Nino, the trainee trio, Astrid, Donnel, Mozu... Lots of creatures to feed over the years.
I think it will not be very good with what we saw, but still neat I wish they actually made a Fire Emblem Maker spin off The engines could be: Fire Emblem from NES(for representation reasons), Fire Emblem Judgral (SNES), GBA and the 3ds games maker Not 3d unfortunately for similiar reasons to MM
@@jimdavis687 in Three Houses you have the option to choose between class outfits or "other" outfits Pretty sure it will return in this game too (even if there's no confirmation atm) so no reason to dislike that
I can only hope the story aspect can be as good as Three Houses. The battle aspect seems to already be better than Three Houses but one of the reasons I put so many hours into Three Houses is because of the different story routes. That gave it a lot to replay value.
Exactly. The character depth, the wonderful story were the reasons I loved the game. It was very well made. Let's cross our fingers for this, because all characters look very generic till now.
I need to finish Three Houses before Engage, I uninstalled it to play something else can't remember what it was and then just never got around to downloading it again and finishing it even though I was having lots of fun with it, only problem is I just started Paper Mario Origami King so now I need to finish that, I really need to stop starting other games and finish the ones I start, it's just with super long games I usually want to take a break so then I play something else and then forget to go back like I still need to finish Ghost of Tsushima, Far Cry 6, Dying Light 2, Borderlands 3, and God Of War 2018 (I've finished 1-3) on top of Mario and Fire Emblem, it's a real problem I have, plus I just keep playing Minecraft since that's the only time I socialize with my friends I spent over 600 hours just this year on Minecraft Playstation Edition. Anyway sorry for getting way off topic the TLDR I'm bad at finishing games
There is a rumor that you will have choices that impact the story progression you can be more dark or light and you choices impact that and your characters hair and eyes change color depending on how far to what side you lean and stuff. So there will be multiple paths branching out depending on choices you make if that's true
Hopefully it is cause that's sounds really cool. I affectionately refer it it as the shadow the hedgehog effect though I'm sure other games do similar things. You can either make more evil type choices or more good type. Your hair will get more red and different events will occur if evil choices and opposite for good bluer hair and different events as well
Yeah, that's my biggest fear. I hope they don't lean too much on fan service and that stuff. So far the characters look SUPER generic. Basic waifus and husbandos. All the same face and personality. I hope they don't depart too much from the depth of Three Houses.
@@RicoLen1 unfortunately not likely. It could be possible as this game supposedly has been done for a long time but considering what's happened to billy. RIP BILLY KAMTEZ I don't think it's him
This looks like the perfect combination of My Castle from Fates and the Monastery from Three Houses. I was sad there wasn't more to do in Three Houses that seemed more in depth, especially since Fates let us do so much, especially in our rooms. So, I greatly look forward to exploring!
You enjoy everything I hate about FE. I've been playing Fire Emblem since it first released outside of Japan and I loved every single one of them except Fates ans Three Houses. Children like in Awakening and Geneology of the Holy War is great, but the whole side quest hub takes away from the game.
@@michaelp4122 I somewhat agree. I like the idea of a hub world and like that you can develop skills and conversations in it, instead of forcing units to be with each other in battle. But I ended up hating the monastery in 3H. It quickly gets boring, and doing the activities just gets tedious, and you end up doing them just because you want to see the conversations. Looks like the Somiel is going to be pretty similar, so hopefully it's not as bad.
@@Kaiservondonau I think he means like, even if you're raring to get back into the action, it's like you have a list of chores before you can have fun, if you want to play optimally.
3:24 Diamant sounds eerily like Ferdinand or, rather, his voice actor, Billy Kametz. Is there any chance Billy could have recorded his lines before his untimely passing (like in FEW: Three Hopes)?? If it's not him, whoever voices Diamant absolutely would make an incredible voice replacement for Ferdinand from here on out in any of his appearances. Either way, RIP Billy. 35 is way too young for such a talented VA.
I'm with ya there man. All this stuff just detracts from what I play Fire Emblem, which is for the combat and some character interactions. For me, PoR and RD were my sweetspot.
And the Final Battle will be in the Floating Castle. It was once your hub and towards the end a destroyed place where the final battle takes place and an epic remix of the Castle will be the song for the final Battle map.
There seem to be a lot of fun things here and I am cautiously excited. I am still iffy on the art direction of the game. In this case I enjoy it as a one of, but I’m not sure that I’d like this becoming the status quo. We’ll see what’s in store for us soon enough

i humbely disaggree. the "choose your heroes Gender"-stuff isnt my style at all. remember the time you had a game with two seperated storylines? the second Telliusgame just like echos? that was the cake: both routes had there own story, there own worth and there own personalitys. With this 'desicion'style without canon, you just loose something that makes a character a character. the self-insert-feeling you shpuld have with those decisions is kinda weak, you have no main character you could love or hate, who makes mistakes or something, bcs everything that one male character does, is the very same thing for the female one. and that is dissapointing. Three houses did a good job by having 3 main characters and your character als there most important right hand. Byleth's job was never to be the hero of the story, but helping one of the three lords to be exactly that hero. but in this game, we are the hero by definition.
I remember playing Radiant Dawn, what an amazing game that was. I am not even sure what I am watching here. In almost 7 minutes I think there was a 2 second passing mention of battle but it wasn't important enough to go into.

1:00 Blades are finally back! Yay! I think we haven't seen them since the Tellius games! I hope they give a little more weapon experience to the wielder than swords like in the GBA games!
@@Logans_Login It looks like weapons don’t show their own stats, but rather what stats the unit will have with them equipped. Spd and Avoid are there so they should have weight values. I just hope there’s a way to toggle showing the actual weapon stats as well
In some japanese footage we also see that Poleaxes and Greatlances are back, and that the effects of these “heavy” variants are that the wielder always goes 2nd (even when initiating) but they inflict Smash when hit (a 1-space knock back effect)
Love that players can now make their own battle maps. Awesome new feature! I just really hope that the in-battle gameplay, maps and story, the core of a Fire Emblem experience, hold up to predecessors like PoR, Radiant Dawn and Awakening. It's clear that a lot of time was placed on Somniel, and it looks beautiful, but I hope that all of the effort on features like a farmyard, training yard and ring polishing mechanic weren't resources taken away from the core experience. If Engage turns into a hangout sim first and a strategy game with a strong story second, then I may have to skip this entry. This is the 30th anniversary game and more features are better than less, so I am gonna stay optimistic until reviews are released.
@@jesusmedina6751 The point is to avoid spending money on a product I may not enjoy, not give Nintendo my money and hope for the best. Of course you're right and no one knows for sure until you actually play the game or even a demo. Nor are reviews gospel by any means. But they can give a rough sense of what to expect. If the consensus is that the social components outweigh the core gameplay, then I may have to skip this one. That's all I'm saying.
Yeah, I feel the same way about social elements. Part of the reason why I couldn't get into FE3H was the monastery sections felt bloated and unnecessary
I agree the visuals are cool but I also do not care for the "Home Sys" crap like how it was forced in Three Houses. I miss the old FEs like Ike's game which crafted an amazing story with chars through their cool cinematics and battle sys if this one turns into a 3 houses rather than a awakening or previous games I aint buying FEs anymore cause it seems like they gonna be stuck on the new Hub bs
yeah, actual map design, battles and strategies are not even mentioned anymore. I hope they will be good, but I fear it will just like Persona 5, 80% slice of life/story, 20% core gameplay.
I'm so looking forward to this game, I'm really excited to see all the new mechanics and how you can build your stats to fit your playstyle, I see that they actually took a lot of inspiration on Fire Emblem Heroes for the new features, tho it will be fun to have it as some kind of multiplayer experience that still hadn't managed to add the feature just yet
@@jakebaney46 That's fair ngl- I really enjoyed it because I like idol storylines but it's definitely a specific niche that probably doesn't have huge overlap with fire emblem Engage definitely seems to be bringing in similar ideas with the rings though, so hopefully people who didn't get into tms can still enjoy some of the concepts!
@@jakebaney46 I don't think it's meant to be that deep, just an excuse to set the game in motion, and hey, it gave a pretty fun game and is (weirdly enough) one of the few times Marth has been put as a figure of respect in the saga instead of the more popular lords, so I really like it
A little taste of Somniel - How to Make Salmon Potato Gratin at 3:18 IRL Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Rinse the salmon and pat it dry with a paper towel. Cut the salmon into small pieces or thin slices. Peel and slice the potatoes into thin rounds. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and milk together. Add the salmon and potato slices to the egg mixture and stir to coat the ingredients evenly. Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish. Thinly slice or chop the vegetables of your choice, such as bell peppers, onions, zucchini, or tomatoes. Sauté the vegetables in a pan over medium heat with a bit of olive oil until they are tender. You can also add a pinch of salt and any desired seasonings. Add the sautéed vegetables to the gratin mixture before transferring it to the baking dish Bake the gratin in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown. Serve the gratin hot, garnished with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of cheese if desired. Enjoy :)
One of my favorite things about Fire Emblem compared to other RPGs was always not having to or feeling like I should do all of the random RPG-type tasks like a lot of the things shown in this video. I was fine with the point and click in Echoes, then stomached the monastery in Three Houses, but it seems like it's getting worse. I'll still get the game tho
I'm fine with Three Houses cause the Academy is essential to it's world and plot but I don't want every game after to have a monastery like feature just cause.
Three Houses is my favourite FE but of course a series ought to try different things. They might not end up all being winners and you can never please everyone but that's the chance you take. I think I will get this but I still have too many games to get through yet. 😅
I have come to accept that Engage is the silly anniversary Fire Emblem game. All my usual expectations for the series are not going to be fulfilled with this title, all I ask though is that the gameplay is insanely fun. A Genealogy remake will heal my soul someday soon.
Finally, a genuine comment buried amongst the sea of delusional hype bots. Sometimes too much is too much. After hearing about the rings bringing back Lyn and Eirika, I decided to look up a trailer. I've reached the stage of grief where I can just wait 5-7 years for the next FE
@@TheTMNTurtle "I've reached the stage of grief where I can just wait 5-7 years for the next FE" LMFAO, nah I feel that. The hype is mostly from modern FE fans who were probably introduced to the franchise with 3H. Personally I'm not going to take Engage seriously in an attempt to TRY and enjoy it, like I said if the gameplay is phenomenal then I can have a great time. Thankfully tho, we seemingly don't need to wait 5-7 years for the next FE title. Before Engage was revealed, several aspects of the game were correctly leaked, including screenshots, saying the game has been ready for a LONG time and that IntSys are ALSO working on a FE4 Remake, and have been for the last 4 years, meaning a holiday 2023 or early 2024 release is within the cards. There's hope yet brother, there's hope yet.
Heal your soul? Who hurt you so badly? Don't expect a Genealogy remake to fix whatever problems you have with this franchise. This is coming from someone who has gotten into the game, and I really do not believe the hype it has going for it.
@@ZephyrK_ I sure hope that if such a thing comes to pass that it lives up to your expectations and that maybe you can find something to be happy about from this franchise. I wish I could say that I did not absolutely hate GotHW in much the same way that you have little if any hope for Engage.
Am I the only one who just want a classic fire emblem? with battles and combats and zero of that gimmicks like cooking, feeding and now do yoga and fishing
Personally, would love a new FE game that removed all the "fluff." Maybe they go back to that style with a remake of an older game? But, why would they go back to that style, when the current direction gets them more sales? FE was barely surviving doing it the old way.
You're not only mate. I just want pure tactical SRPG goodness, it's insane to me how I got that experience for other titles like Triangle Strategy and no longer feel it in the franchise that created/popularised the genre over 3 decades ago.
So, this is basically Fates' My Castle and Three Houses monastery exploration, like someone has said, combined with Splatoon 3's sharing aspects, Tomodachi Life, Miitomo, and Animal Crossing's bond building, Breath of the Wild's activities, and Ring Fit Adventure without all the exercise. They've taken aspects of almost every Nintendo property except for Mario. Amazing.
5:57 That room is so immaculate! Clean, pristine, and the wholesome interactions you get with allies that come to wake you up! This is my favorite part of the Somniel!
looks like a mobile gacha compilation game without the gacha mechanics tbh. I like it better when FE is a more condensed story with just the main cast of their own respected game the whole relying on summoning past cast members makes this game feel like FE heroes
Feels like they added elements from heroes to the main switch games now along with keeping a lot of elements from three houses 😮❤ can’t wait to see these characters in game!!! They all look so interesting XD
Al principio no estaba tan segura si comprarlo o no, pero cada vez que sale un nuevo trailer me dan ganas de comprarlo, cada vez le tengo más amor a la saga
Esta tomando lo mejor que tenía la base del Fates y lo adapta a las mecánicas que uso el 3H sin hacerlo aburrido desde la segunda partida en adelante, se ve demasiado bien
@@Emiturbinai played the game cause hacks and it is a good game but there’s no surprise. It’s a one side story there’s no multiples path of different organizations just straight forwards fighting being friends and love
Seems like the perfect Fire Emblem game to bring back Amiibo usage. I've had a bunch of Fire Emblem Amiibos for years now. They gave you almost full extra characters along with their outfits weapons and even some skills in FE Fates, ghosts of the characters in Echoes, then nothing but random items or small pocket change in the Warriors games and Three Houses. I feel like they could have the amiibos give you early access to character outfits or the Emblems or even just weaker copies of their weapons or something in this game. Really hope so.
I really really don't care for this hubworld stuff, i don't care for a protagonist that doesn't talk, I don't care for the the detatched sauna paradise when I'd assume the world is in chaos. Fire emblems used to be character driven plot heavy stories with tension and some lightheartedness sprinkled in. If I wanted to play harvest moon I'd play harvest moon. Fire emblem dialogue has a history of being very enjoyable, walking around and having units give me 2 bits of their one sided statements isn't dialogue... I like that the tactics game play is advancing I won't lie but this isn't the game I fell in love with as a kid. Frankly I'm just sad that I no longer feel excitement when I'm told "hey a new fire emblem is coming out." All I want at this point are the old fire emblem games ported to the switch, especially path of radiance and radiant dawn. Sorry for ranting but I feel I needed to say *something* about my thoughts on this franchise I used to love so much.
If this is even close to as good as three houses, one of my favorite games of all time, then I will be satisfied! I would even be fine with the gameplay being better but the story a step down since 3 Houses story is so good that I am amazed they made it work given how much content they had to work on for that game!
I really hope the my base feature is more fates than three houses I don’t want to spend hours before a chapter doing the same stuff just so I don’t get stomped.
This is so cool it even has a swimming pool a gym where you can workout and a ranch where you care for the animals. I love it I can’t wait I already preordered mine back in October all I can do is wait plus the dragon flying mini game reminded me of The legend of Zelda Skyward Sword where Link flies on his loftwing.
This base is easily the most comfortable looking one we got so far. It feels like a medival resort. I can see myself just staying in the pool area doing nothing for hours.
Good bye medieval setting. Or even coherent setting. When they're training with the ponytails, tracksuits and sport shoes it really does feel out of place.
I preorder the divine edition right when preorder came up lol. I'm so hyped I'd kill for a demo but there's no way we are getting one. Also we better actually get Fe icons for switch profiles this time Nintendo
I mean it could be possible cause awakening and fates had demos but 3h didn't. Maybe that's just cause how much work they were doing up until release though since this game has supposedly be done for a while it's a possibility but I doubt we will get one
@@Chris_Tower nah dude, the game does not have a canon path, it's the vision of a War in 4 perspectives but for me the Golden Deer Route has the best resolution of the conflict. Claude & Edelgard has my favorite Lords of the game but Claude's path engages me so hard.
@@izabelreyes3915 they are definitely higher quality than three houses, nonetheless I'll still miss the portraits, I've always quite liked the half visual novel look, but it's not for everyone
As long as they don't have a 'lost items' gimmick again, everything here looks pretty chill. I am also highly curious how one gets SP and more stuff on the rings. Like if I can buy Avoid + 20, + 15, and +10 then have a +45 Evasion buff.

I wonder if they have greater weight than swords since we know build as a stat is back but we don’t see weight listed in the shop in this trailer
@@Logans_Login It looks like weapons don’t show their own stats, but rather what stats the unit will have with them equipped. Spd and Avoid are there so they should have weight values. I just hope there’s a way to toggle showing the actual weapon stats as well
In some japanese footage we also see that Poleaxes and Greatlances are back, and that the effects of these “heavy” variants are that the wielder always goes 2nd (even when initiating) but they inflict Smash when hit (a 1-space knock back effect)
I though blades only existed in xenoblade chronicles 2
Also, instead of having bronze swords, slim swords are coming back for the first time since Tellius as well, that's cool.
Love that players can now make their own battle maps. Awesome new feature! I just really hope that the in-battle gameplay, maps and story, the core of a Fire Emblem experience, hold up to predecessors like PoR, Radiant Dawn and Awakening. It's clear that a lot of time was placed on Somniel, and it looks beautiful, but I hope that all of the effort on features like a farmyard, training yard and ring polishing mechanic weren't resources taken away from the core experience.
If Engage turns into a hangout sim first and a strategy game with a strong story second, then I may have to skip this entry. This is the 30th anniversary game and more features are better than less, so I am gonna stay optimistic until reviews are released.
Or buy the game and experience it yourself instead of relying on reviews
@@jesusmedina6751 The point is to avoid spending money on a product I may not enjoy, not give Nintendo my money and hope for the best.
Of course you're right and no one knows for sure until you actually play the game or even a demo. Nor are reviews gospel by any means. But they can give a rough sense of what to expect. If the consensus is that the social components outweigh the core gameplay, then I may have to skip this one. That's all I'm saying.
Yeah, I feel the same way about social elements. Part of the reason why I couldn't get into FE3H was the monastery sections felt bloated and unnecessary
@@nicktwarog3759 avoid spending money? You do realize you can refund the game with a receipt to get your money back if it's not good
I agree the visuals are cool but I also do not care for the "Home Sys" crap like how it was forced in Three Houses. I miss the old FEs like Ike's game which crafted an amazing story with chars through their cool cinematics and battle sys if this one turns into a 3 houses rather than a awakening or previous games I aint buying FEs anymore cause it seems like they gonna be stuck on the new Hub bs
A part of me is glad they're trying new things to add but a part of me is sad cause i can see the clear departure of what Fire Emblem use to be
yeah, actual map design, battles and strategies are not even mentioned anymore. I hope they will be good, but I fear it will just like Persona 5, 80% slice of life/story, 20% core gameplay.
Yeah, It makes me sad as well. I was a big fan of the FE games up to awakening, but these current games can barely hold my attention anymore.
@@john98765333 You didn't play Echoes then? It's a remake of FE2 on the 3DS and doesn't have any of this stuff.
I only joined when three houses came out, what did fire emblem used to be like?
@@richcast66 More fighting and resetting your battles and less running about gathering people's garbage while you garden.
Remember when fire emblem was about the battles
Its about time I can get a camel in fire emblem
Looking forward to this game SOOOO much!
Same, the only fire emblem game that had me this hyped was fates, and that was my first game
This game looks absolutely incredible.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I honestly think that this game is only held back by character designs
@@ilavain and even then its mostly cutscenes versions of the character like alear here looks way better due to way less saturation in her hair
@@ilavain yeah the protagonist looks pretty lame. Also the idea of bringing back old characters as a gimmick is unoriginal and boring
@@ilavain Buildings are also kind of cheap looking.
I like how everyone has totally different outfits for the battlefield and HQ.
I'm sure Ferdinand and Billy would've loved this sky castle.
This game is looking amazing i can’t wait to play it
"The Alpaca Hero is here-o!" OH THIS GONNA BE GOOD
i was so immersed in the ost that i had to rewind multiple times, seems like this game once again have amazing songs.
It doesn't fell like these guys are in middle of a war
I'm so looking forward to this game, I'm really excited to see all the new mechanics and how you can build your stats to fit your playstyle, I see that they actually took a lot of inspiration on Fire Emblem Heroes for the new features, tho it will be fun to have it as some kind of multiplayer experience that still hadn't managed to add the feature just yet
The ring chamber reminds me so much of TMS! This game seems so promising
I’m surprised to see someone who’s play TMS as well
@@tschro6539 I've played some of it never finished it though. Not cause I didn't want to just cause I got busy then started playing other games lol
I do think it could have used a better story though becoming and idol or whatever wasn't very compelling
@@jakebaney46 That's fair ngl- I really enjoyed it because I like idol storylines but it's definitely a specific niche that probably doesn't have huge overlap with fire emblem
Engage definitely seems to be bringing in similar ideas with the rings though, so hopefully people who didn't get into tms can still enjoy some of the concepts!
@@jakebaney46 I don't think it's meant to be that deep, just an excuse to set the game in motion, and hey, it gave a pretty fun game and is (weirdly enough) one of the few times Marth has been put as a figure of respect in the saga instead of the more popular lords, so I really like it
A little taste of Somniel - How to Make Salmon Potato Gratin at 3:18 IRL
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Rinse the salmon and pat it dry with a paper towel. Cut the salmon into small pieces or thin slices.
Peel and slice the potatoes into thin rounds.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and milk together. Add the salmon and potato slices to the egg mixture and stir to coat the ingredients evenly.
Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish.
Thinly slice or chop the vegetables of your choice, such as bell peppers, onions, zucchini, or tomatoes.
Sauté the vegetables in a pan over medium heat with a bit of olive oil until they are tender. You can also add a pinch of salt and any desired seasonings.
Add the sautéed vegetables to the gratin mixture before transferring it to the baking dish
Bake the gratin in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown.
Serve the gratin hot, garnished with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of cheese if desired.
Enjoy :)
One of my favorite things about Fire Emblem compared to other RPGs was always not having to or feeling like I should do all of the random RPG-type tasks like a lot of the things shown in this video. I was fine with the point and click in Echoes, then stomached the monastery in Three Houses, but it seems like it's getting worse. I'll still get the game tho
I'm fine with Three Houses cause the Academy is essential to it's world and plot but I don't want every game after to have a monastery like feature just cause.
Three Houses is my favourite FE but of course a series ought to try different things. They might not end up all being winners and you can never please everyone but that's the chance you take.
I think I will get this but I still have too many games to get through yet. 😅
Are you serious? We can make our battle maps? This game looks amazing! What an epic way to start off 2023!! We must have this game! :D
Are you Gollum/Smeagol?
@@falconer8973 Yes
This looks more like a resort than a base to prep my armies.
An engage trailer in English? It’s a Christmas miracle.
I have come to accept that Engage is the silly anniversary Fire Emblem game. All my usual expectations for the series are not going to be fulfilled with this title, all I ask though is that the gameplay is insanely fun. A Genealogy remake will heal my soul someday soon.
Finally, a genuine comment buried amongst the sea of delusional hype bots.
Sometimes too much is too much.
After hearing about the rings bringing back Lyn and Eirika, I decided to look up a trailer. I've reached the stage of grief where I can just wait 5-7 years for the next FE
@@TheTMNTurtle "I've reached the stage of grief where I can just wait 5-7 years for the next FE" LMFAO, nah I feel that.
The hype is mostly from modern FE fans who were probably introduced to the franchise with 3H. Personally I'm not going to take Engage seriously in an attempt to TRY and enjoy it, like I said if the gameplay is phenomenal then I can have a great time.
Thankfully tho, we seemingly don't need to wait 5-7 years for the next FE title. Before Engage was revealed, several aspects of the game were correctly leaked, including screenshots, saying the game has been ready for a LONG time and that IntSys are ALSO working on a FE4 Remake, and have been for the last 4 years, meaning a holiday 2023 or early 2024 release is within the cards.
There's hope yet brother, there's hope yet.
Heal your soul? Who hurt you so badly?
Don't expect a Genealogy remake to fix whatever problems you have with this franchise.
This is coming from someone who has gotten into the game, and I really do not believe the hype it has going for it.
@@BlueSunStudios1 I love the game and going by the love IntSys gave Gaiden with SoV, Imma love the remake too.
@@ZephyrK_ I sure hope that if such a thing comes to pass that it lives up to your expectations and that maybe you can find something to be happy about from this franchise. I wish I could say that I did not absolutely hate GotHW in much the same way that you have little if any hope for Engage.
I read the title combined with the channel name and my brain read
*”Fire Emblem Engage- Welcome to America”*
Am I the only one who just want a classic fire emblem? with battles and combats and zero of that gimmicks like cooking, feeding and now do yoga and fishing
Personally, would love a new FE game that removed all the "fluff." Maybe they go back to that style with a remake of an older game? But, why would they go back to that style, when the current direction gets them more sales? FE was barely surviving doing it the old way.
You're not only mate. I just want pure tactical SRPG goodness, it's insane to me how I got that experience for other titles like Triangle Strategy and no longer feel it in the franchise that created/popularised the genre over 3 decades ago.
At this point its a pipedream to get a protagonist whos not an avatar lol.
@@laxuspoldish6165 I mean...the game that saved the series still had very simple side gigs at most, not like the stuff we got later. Sooooooo....
Yes you’re the only one
I'm actually really excited for this game to come out. I can't wait to dive into this game.
@WolfTamer It's getting closer to coming out, and we might get videos every day until launch day.
the ring polishing clip is too funny XD
The Amiibo Gazebo is back! Lol I always chuckle hearing that. Amiibo Gazebo!
Almost every woman in this game has hair that defies gravity.
Also, LOL at using animal dandruff as a currency.
So, this is basically Fates' My Castle and Three Houses monastery exploration, like someone has said, combined with Splatoon 3's sharing aspects, Tomodachi Life, Miitomo, and Animal Crossing's bond building, Breath of the Wild's activities, and Ring Fit Adventure without all the exercise. They've taken aspects of almost every Nintendo property except for Mario. Amazing.
For now they haven’t
The Amiibo Gazebo - is like the perfect title for any amiibo spot in any game!
Fire Emblem Maker is something I'm sure a lot of us has wanted for a long time and now we get it
BRING BACK MAIN CHARACTER CUSTOMIZATION
WOW! There is a lot of features packed into this game. Cannot wait to play.
5:57 That room is so immaculate! Clean, pristine, and the wholesome interactions you get with allies that come to wake you up! This is my favorite part of the Somniel!
Please be as good as three houses i can’t that sound track out of my head
looks like a mobile gacha compilation game without the gacha mechanics tbh. I like it better when FE is a more condensed story with just the main cast of their own respected game the whole relying on summoning past cast members makes this game feel like FE heroes
5:32 if there's no God Shattering star you can keep it
Ok, battle map creation is kinda hype
Fire Emblem Three Houses initial and subsequent trailers: 😃😄😁
Fire Emblem Engage initial and subsequent trailers: 🤨😐😴
Anyone else?
Bonding by polishing each others rings huh. I knew a couple guys that lived together that also bonded that way.
Feels like they added elements from heroes to the main switch games now along with keeping a lot of elements from three houses 😮❤ can’t wait to see these characters in game!!! They all look so interesting XD
"Take this pretty rock I found on the garden"
"I love it"
Phenomenal 😂
Al principio no estaba tan segura si comprarlo o no, pero cada vez que sale un nuevo trailer me dan ganas de comprarlo, cada vez le tengo más amor a la saga
Estoy igual. En verdad que ya me esta convenciendo se ve que sera un buen juego.
Verdad? Luego dirán que es "genérico". Cae de salida
Esta tomando lo mejor que tenía la base del Fates y lo adapta a las mecánicas que uso el 3H sin hacerlo aburrido desde la segunda partida en adelante, se ve demasiado bien
@@Emiturbinai played the game cause hacks and it is a good game but there’s no surprise. It’s a one side story there’s no multiples path of different organizations just straight forwards fighting being friends and love
@@Shosholegbt ?
Seems like the perfect Fire Emblem game to bring back Amiibo usage. I've had a bunch of Fire Emblem Amiibos for years now. They gave you almost full extra characters along with their outfits weapons and even some skills in FE Fates, ghosts of the characters in Echoes, then nothing but random items or small pocket change in the Warriors games and Three Houses. I feel like they could have the amiibos give you early access to character outfits or the Emblems or even just weaker copies of their weapons or something in this game. Really hope so.
This certainly looks to be shaping up to be one of the Fire Emblem games of all time
I really really don't care for this hubworld stuff, i don't care for a protagonist that doesn't talk, I don't care for the the detatched sauna paradise when I'd assume the world is in chaos. Fire emblems used to be character driven plot heavy stories with tension and some lightheartedness sprinkled in. If I wanted to play harvest moon I'd play harvest moon. Fire emblem dialogue has a history of being very enjoyable, walking around and having units give me 2 bits of their one sided statements isn't dialogue... I like that the tactics game play is advancing I won't lie but this isn't the game I fell in love with as a kid. Frankly I'm just sad that I no longer feel excitement when I'm told "hey a new fire emblem is coming out." All I want at this point are the old fire emblem games ported to the switch, especially path of radiance and radiant dawn. Sorry for ranting but I feel I needed to say *something* about my thoughts on this franchise I used to love so much.
Alear does talk though…
Same... I'll pass this one, and all the Fire Emblem that will follow that path.
While not my type of game I can still appreciate the time and effort the developers put into this game; there's so much content.
2:02 NOOO!! Sigurd's face!! 🤣🤣
"Bro...? WTF ARE YOU RUBBIN'..."
The goofy doggo (maybe) has a name now!
Also hearing “slay in style” is definitely not what I would expect to hear from something Fire Emblem lmao
The Training Yard is the place where the Zyzz music kicks.
I have to give the Fire Emblem series an applause. No one can make giant fluffy hair like they can xD
If this is even close to as good as three houses, one of my favorite games of all time, then I will be satisfied! I would even be fine with the gameplay being better but the story a step down since 3 Houses story is so good that I am amazed they made it work given how much content they had to work on for that game!
I've always liked Robin's robe. Looks like I can outfit everyone with it.
We can now slay in style they said
Forget depressing stories and hardcore combat, it’s time for the slice of life arcs between battles.
Depressing stories and hardcore combat are what I like best
@@Daredesuka2234 I was making a joke and calling Somniel a filler arc lmao.
4:38 So you and your allies can ✨️💅🏽slay💅🏽✨️ in style
I really hope the my base feature is more fates than three houses I don’t want to spend hours before a chapter doing the same stuff just so I don’t get stomped.
Hope so to. Though seeing emblems have motivation is worrying.
This is so cool it even has a swimming pool a gym where you can workout and a ranch where you care for the animals. I love it I can’t wait I already preordered mine back in October all I can do is wait plus the dragon flying mini game reminded me of The legend of Zelda Skyward Sword where Link flies on his loftwing.
This base is easily the most comfortable looking one we got so far. It feels like a medival resort. I can see myself just staying in the pool area doing nothing for hours.
Good bye medieval setting.
Or even coherent setting. When they're training with the ponytails, tracksuits and sport shoes it really does feel out of place.
I preorder the divine edition right when preorder came up lol. I'm so hyped I'd kill for a demo but there's no way we are getting one. Also we better actually get Fe icons for switch profiles this time Nintendo
@@r.c.c.10 Who cares your a god lol you can do whatever you want
I mean it could be possible cause awakening and fates had demos but 3h didn't. Maybe that's just cause how much work they were doing up until release though since this game has supposedly be done for a while it's a possibility but I doubt we will get one
0:31 Now compare this to the *Pokemon Scarlet/Violet* academy building and see the STARK difference in graphics and quality.
I never played a Fire Emblem game before (always wanted to), this trailer really makes me want to try it out. Looks incredible!
Play three houses too!
@@zombibyte thanks I'm going to try it. Any suggestions which house? The Golden one seemed cool
The Golden Deer Route its the Canon, Claude its GOAT
Didn't know the game had Canon. Even more reason then
@@Chris_Tower nah dude, the game does not have a canon path, it's the vision of a War in 4 perspectives but for me the Golden Deer Route has the best resolution of the conflict. Claude & Edelgard has my favorite Lords of the game but Claude's path engages me so hard.
The guitar music is great. Strong Tatsuya Maruyama vibes
I kinda miss the portraits, though I understand they don't really need them anymore, I've always liked the art
Yeah, I agree. It just doesn’t feel the same.
I hope the model expressions a clear and detailed in exchange for no more portrait. Fingers crossed.
@@izabelreyes3915 they are definitely higher quality than three houses, nonetheless I'll still miss the portraits, I've always quite liked the half visual novel look, but it's not for everyone
This better have S-Support romances
oh man i love that spanish guitar rendition of the main theme during cafe time literally gave me chills! realy nice choice there
wow, looks like a great farming game
After three houses, I’m hooked into the series, cant wait to get the chance to play this one :))
Just play FE echoes, bro :D
I'm definitely buying this.
The more i hear info and characters about this game, the more i want it.
I can't believe the Amiibo Gazebo turned into a series staple.
I love fire emblem. I am so excited for this.
About time you posted it.
As long as they don't have a 'lost items' gimmick again, everything here looks pretty chill. I am also highly curious how one gets SP and more stuff on the rings. Like if I can buy Avoid + 20, + 15, and +10 then have a +45 Evasion buff.
Alear with a ponytail: 11/10 game!
Ooooh, ring polishing. I'm sold!
5-hour gameplay between each battle.
