Today's tweets! As expected, they're revealing some stuff that was already on the website (this time the other two of the Four Hounds) but we also get some new stuff! Namely a clip showing off reinforcements plus Yunaka.
Edit: More tweets lol:
Looks like daggars cause poison, and the poison effect stacks if you continue attacking the same enemy w/ daggars. Also, thieves can open doors like usual, but you can also choose to attack a door until it breaks open.
Dropping the tweets for Fogato and Hortensia at the same time clears out that backlog. We might start seeing new info with the next batch.Today's tweets. Mostly old stuff from the website (although I find it interesting that they decided to tweet Fogato and Hortensia at the same time... I don't think there's any more old stuff from the website left to cover) although we get an explanation of staves as well.
Assuming we get the Emblem Lyn video on Thursday, I almost wonder, as unlikely as it may be, if we're getting a big new trailer at The Game Awards, which happen soon before the scheduled Friday tweets. Maybe we'll get The DreamTM aka a TGA trailer followed by an Engage Direct on Friday or early next week lol.Dropping the tweets for Fogato and Hortensia at the same time clears out that backlog.

I think there’s a chance. Not sure where I’d land on percentages… maybe a 1/3 chance? Seems like a good opportunity to grab the conversation over the holiday and effectively go ‘yeah 2023 starts with Fire Emblem, it’s only 6 weeks out’So who all here feels there could be a new trailer at the TGAs tonight?
Can I say that it's kinda shameless to announce the Expansion pass this early?
Like it was a given that there would be DLC but they could have waited to announce it closer to launch day.
They should have shown a new story trailer for the TGA, it would have been more fitting for the event.
I know, I just think it wasn't really fit for the TGA, that's allWhere have you been for the last 10+ years? Advertising DLC before a game releases is common practice in the industry. Nintendo announced the DLC for BOTW and Xenoblade 3 before the games were released.
Even more hilarious is that this isn't even the first Fire Emblem game to have DLC announced so far in advance. That goes to either Awakening or Fates on the 3DS if memory serves.Where have you been for the last 10+ years? Advertising DLC before a game releases is common practice in the industry.

My issue is when the DLC seems like content that was stripped from the game and not added content. Obviously can't tell if that's what this will be but it's unlikely tbh.Yeah, I'm kinda confused as to why people are complaining about Engage having DLC annouced prior to release, this is a pretty common practice and has been for a while now lol. Which includes several Nintendo games, including Three Houses, so it's not as if FE is new to this practice.
Yes, they expanded the description and wave 4 containsGotta imagine the last wave will be a story expansion, no?
Awakening characters will also 100% be one of the waves.
New characters, new maps and a separate story from the main, chapter-based story.
He was shown in the trailer with RosadoEdelgard, Dimitri, and Claude are all one Emblem.
This gives a lot of fire to the theory that Eirika and Ephraim are one Emblem.
Finally, she can be in a game where Ike doesn't sabotage and overshadow her.Game just got 10 times better
I knew this game reminded me of Fates.Emblems seem to react positively to their rings being polished. This raises uncomfortable questions
I think everyone you would want to be playable was in at launch (which is a good thing). Only thing I could see is like a prequel type thing with Macuil, Cichol etc. But it's fine the way it is and a good farewell to the Fodlan era.Kind of off topic, but I’m really surprised Three Hopes isn’t getting DLC whatsoever. I think the ship for that game has sailed by now. First Nintendo Warriors game to not get any.
They ain't giving us more story in the game where a golden path could actually make senseKind of off topic, but I’m really surprised Three Hopes isn’t getting DLC whatsoever. I think the ship for that game has sailed by now. First Nintendo Warriors game to not get any.

Yup. I think one of the possible reasons they are dlc is because of story purpose (they are not in the murals like the others) so I don't think it falls under "cut content". But having them day 1 can feel like a burn so I understand people disappointment.What realistically would have happened if they weren't charging for DLC is that it would have just been Byleth, same as the game already has, and nothing else.

Age of calamity DLC seem like it had no impact. Might’ve have even done poorly.Kind of off topic, but I’m really surprised Three Hopes isn’t getting DLC whatsoever. I think the ship for that game has sailed by now. First Nintendo Warriors game to not get any.
