It looks exactly what I expected it to look like: A game I'm not interested in.

Don't have anything negative to say about it. I just really wanted a cool new tbs with some smt elements. Not interested in this in the least. You guys can enjoy though.
and I respect that you aren't excited for it.

You think this will win me over Atlus? You think this will bring me back into your bosom? You think this can make the pain of SMTxFE turning into an Idol simulator go away?
not really though I do appreciate the gesture. Too bad I'm never going to buy a vita.
 
Before I can be happy about the outfits,
Where
The
Hell
Is the Maya Amano outfit?
 
But Ulala has a costume already.
 
I guess you're right,No one's worthy of the garments of a true Best Girl.
 
Not surprising. I believe the Arena games had alt colors that reference the early Persona games too. That is the closest your gonna get though lol. Don't expect character cameos or even the old music [P3 music isn't even here yet and Atlus cares about that entry way more] if it failed to happen in crossover potential games like the Arenas or Q.

In any case, don't really care too much about the costumes. Interested in the final music list. I know there are some DLC songs already, but is there gonna be a post-release season pass situation for more music like the Miku games?

The Fire Emblem/Shin Megami Tensei Crossover is Persona with Fire Emblem Heroes - GameSpot

Yamagami and Takada also explained why the game is so heavy on Japanese pop idol culture and why so many characters are shown singing.

"This is why the characters are all entertainers: in Japan, similar to Greek mythology, there's the idea of the gods being connected to the arts," Takada said. "It's a shamanistic element that's been interpreted by Atlus. The idea is, Japanese priestesses would dance and the dancing would bring them closer to the gods. We wanted to spin this in an Atlus way, so all the characters in the game have some connection to the arts, and that connection and their ability to express themselves attracts the Mirages to them. People who are good at singing or dancing or acting have really strong bonds with Mirages."

There's a lot more details about the game in that article, but this stuck out to me.
 
That's...Actually pretty neat. At least it sheds some light on how things are the way they are. But if creatures and characters can come from a mirror FE world, then that means someone from other SMT titles may show up, right, RIGHT?! PLEASE?! DX

The way I see it, This isn't an SMT x FE game anymore. Just another Persona-style game with Fire Emblem characters as summons(?)

I'm gonna watch the 45-minute Treehouse demo later before I can make a real observation of this game.

I feel it summed the game up pretty well.
it looks fun, it's colorful, the music is good, and it seems like it will have actual dungeons.
 
Yeah, it is very colorful. I like that the combat system has a mixture of both series. As its own game, it's not so bad. I wish it wasn't in modern Japan again...(the IMs on the controller look pretty dope, though)
 
they did say in the treehouse that the world will change depending on progression.
also, considering we just straight up see Tiki, we might be able to go into their world as well.

but man, I really wanna see what they do with other Fire Emblem characters. because looks at what they've done with Chrom and Cain who looks like the coolest shit and how his how basically becomes a tokusatsu hero.

like, he does a cool pose with a weapon, says one of the classic arrival phrases being "KENZAN!(sp?)", and the fact that there's an unexplained explosion behind him.
I know what kind of actor he wants to be ;)

I hope Ike appears and he's just Guts
so... his Smash 4 design?

although, I did make a joke on twitter of what if Ike was straight up just black armor Guts.
 
I never knew you could hate a character so much you'd wish his only appearance was as his organs
jk

I'd like to see the take on Micaiah. Maybe it would be a twin thing, but eh.

what if you can get sub Mirages, or other famous Mirages of the same class that give you new abilities? So you could fight the Lords on the side, some other Axe wielders, etc. I dunno how they gonna do it, but I doubt they're gonna have the MC switching Mirages like Personas or demons.
 
yo, what would they even do with Lynn?

I dunno, they did show (albeit extremely quickly) a bunch of various designs in the E3 trailer.
 
they just make Lyn into Labrys but with a long sword instead.

Turn her into some sorta barbarian/Yuki-onna thing? I dunno.

There doesn't seem to be a set style for any of these we've seen. Cain seems to be a robotic thing, Chrom is a zombie/ninja with some aspects from the original char, Shiida is riding a space bike thingy and seems to have some elements that remind me of DDS....actually, the mirages remind me a lot of DDS.
 
North888 said:

that doesn't really seem like it'd fit Lyn at all though.
she's more of a swordswoman than a barbarian.
 
When I say barbarian, I meant the place she came from. The plains. I could see them incorporating elements from barbarians or indians or plainsmen aside from her basic outfit. The way I worded it was super stupid, though. sry.
 
it does seem that the game is generally good responses from a wide audience.
it's honestly nice to see that although it's not meeting the expectations of what the project originally intended to do,
something nice is still coming out of it.
and who knows?
maybe this project will be something both teams like doing enough to where they'll want to work together again for a real SMTxFE?

also for the fact that it gave us Cool Guy Shadow Chrom.

He looks quite a bit cooler than I initially thought :D
 
and don't even get me started on Cain and Toma.

best characters IMO.

Potato Quality of the DAN opening
Kanji dresses like a bboy and dances like a bboy in the opening, but the gameplay video reels only consist of him locking.

This bothers me a lot for some reason.

I wonder if he plays card games on that motorcycle? :3
More like he seeks justice.
Like, considering the profession he wants, and how I've found like, 5 toku references in his design choices shown, I think he wants to be a hero in spandex.
Or maybe I'm looking too hard into it and am completely wrong, I'll still like him either way.
