The fuck, girl in the top right pic? Would you please put off the shoes before going into the water?
Rude.
Isn't this the first time we've ever had FE females in swimsuits that wasn't part of dlc?Fire Emblem in ‘what’s our excuse to get our cast of JRPG girls into lycra swimsuits this time’ shocker.
Heroes did it every summer.Isn't this the first time we've ever had FE females in swimsuits that wasn't part of dlc?
Heroes did it every summer.
It's summer in the southern hemisphere!Remembers the first FEH christmas banner
... and winter.
What is Gatcha if not glorified dlcHeroes did it every summer.
The skimpiest the swimsuits have ever been was Lorenz's banana hammock. Say what you will, but that guy is overflowing with self-confidence.
To be fair I’ll add that I don’t think FE is the worst offender on this topic by a very long way, it’s just kinda rife across computer games (or, well, media in general I guess) and makes me roll my eyes at this point. I’m in my 40s with my own daughter at this point and I’d have loved to be able to play games with her without having to have the ‘the women wear less clothes/armour in this rpg/battle game because of the otaku dollar’ chat at some point. I don’t know, It’s more just a symptom of me being tired of it all in general rather than having a moan about fire emblem in particular, I’m really looking forward to this one.
Engage does seem to be allowing more anachronism than most entries, from what I've noticed. Not just in the sports attire, but even in some of the setting details. I think I saw there's a part of Somniel with a white picket fence in the reveal trailer that made me raise an eyebrow.Outside of the clear pandering aspect of this, I'm just not a fan of seeing clearly modern attire in a game that is supposed to be medieval fantasy. Though this complaint is less about the swim suit and more about the sport attire, like the compression tights. Immersion breaking is the wrong term here (after all, this is a series where people kill with fireballs while riding a dinosaur), but...I'm just not a fan of this.
I just remembered that when 3H was about to add the sauna to the game and people were like "Ohh, this is where is heavy fanservice comes into play. Get ready for bikinis!" and then you see your units wear same unisex clothes made out of ugly gunny sack with no pandering in sight. That was a pleasant surprise.
Yeah. Based on some of the reactions, you'd think everyone was wearing string bikinis. And...no?Also those are some really tame swimsuits/workout suits for the amount of "PANDERING FAN SERVICE FE RUINED" reaction I've seen from some people online.
Yeah, I'm looking at the screens and this seems to follow F3H sauna where everyone wears the same shorts and tops and they are very tameAlso those are some really tame swimsuits/workout suits for the amount of "PANDERING FAN SERVICE FE RUINED" reaction I've seen from some people online.

You rub like a dairy farmerJP Sigurd: “Yes, please polish my ring, that feels so good”.
ENG Sigurd: “Bro what the hell are you doing, are you ok”
Sigurd Is angrily confused why some lame-o is polishing his ring and not deirdre.
feels like legaleseStarting the trailer now, but I think my new Nintendo ick is when they phrase a game as "The [Fire Emblem Engage] Game"
Just say Fire Emblem: Engage. Why put The and Game in it?
That's just how NOA marketing refers to all of their games in trailer narration.Starting the trailer now, but I think my new Nintendo ick is when they phrase a game as "The [Fire Emblem Engage] Game"

The environments look great and I love the Bassa nova rendition of the main theme that shows up at 3:20.
English version of that latest japanese trailer. I think.
They've been doing that for ages. I agree it sounds very stupid and robotic. Maybe it's a translation thing?Starting the trailer now, but I think my new Nintendo ick is when they phrase a game as "The [Fire Emblem Engage] Game"

If it was legalese, wouldn't all other companies (or at least some of them) do it too?Maybe, but also:

I kind of hope it is that, honestly, lol. I loved that part of Three Houses. Do we know yet if you still train units in a similar fashion, or how unit advancement works? I’ve been a little out of the loopQuite liking the look of the hub activities. I always enjoy fishing in rpgs. As long as it doesn’t become a chore of half an hour of admin between battles to keep all the sub-systems and skills and various relationship meters and whatnot up to date, it’s all good.
For the most part it seems like the stuff you can do at the school in 3H, which I enjoyed tbh.Quite liking the look of the hub activities. I always enjoy fishing in rpgs.

No idea, but I suspect it’s not using the same lecture setup to teach skills.I kind of hope it is that, honestly, lol. I loved that part of Three Houses. Do we know yet if you still train units in a similar fashion, or how unit advancement works? I’ve been a little out of the loop
I was fine with it in the first half, but it was a drag in the second half for me where it felt a lot emptier (for obvious reasons!) and just repeating the same stuff a lot. If it’s all a bit more compact it’ll help.For the most part it seems like the stuff you can do at the school in 3H, which I enjoyed tbh.
NoA just likes the formalitiesIf it was legalese, wouldn't all other companies (or at least some of them) do it too?
Oh god yeah that was gruesome."The Fire Emblem Engage game" is definitely a bit goofy, but I don't think anything will ever top "Wave 3 of the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - Booster Course Pass DLC for the Mario Kart 8 Deluxe game". That one is still in a league of its own.
