Clearly it can't be that easy if both GameXplain and Polygon died on it

Gamexplain and Polygon got a game over cause they failed the mission objective (don't let the enemies reach a specific point), not because all their dudes died

I watched the Gamexplain one and the dude just let a Hoshidan walk up from the top right part of the map into the tiles you're supposed to defend. Meanwhile, he had Camilla near the boats killing far-away Hoshidans for 4 EXP a pop.

Seriously the weirdest decision making I've ever seen. He also narrowly dodged Elise dying to a 61% chance (not accounting for TH) once one of the barricades fell because he had her holding that chokepoint.

That's not how the Triangle Attack works...

Some 3-2 playtesting. I've got Lachesis/Raquesis (the Hector unit right below Sigurd) in the perfect position... TO KILL HER BROTHER (she has a Rapier).

If you're really dedicated and anti-localization, there are nutcases that are translating the game via source translation and are up to chapter 7 or something.

This is from a few pages back, but no, they've actually completely finished both birthright and conquest (though not IK or the DLC).

You either need a japanese copy of the game or Custom Firmware (i.e. have a <9.2 3DS, though you can and should downgrade your 3DS if you're below FW 10.3) though.

I like how on the splash page, scrolling down gets your 3 boxes for DLC advertisements and one for a special edition console and only one for a cool new feature in the game.

"Beruka" is extremely engrish sounding too, what was wrong with going with Belka like everyone has called her since day 0?

Oh neat, you're trying to port Fire Emblem 4 into Fire Emblem 7? I'd imagine you'd have to split up the maps into smaller ones due to memory limitations though.

The first time I played FE4, I totally blanked out on the fact that they were siblings and had to kill him.

It, ah, took a few tries.

Fates might be even more censored in Europe - supposedly the two same-sex S rank supports are gonna be removed:

https://www.reddit.com/r/fireemblem/comments/42xhlw/corrins_italian_name_different_censorship_for/

Although I'm still pretty skeptical about that source. Either way, I think it's gonna be a while before we have any official confirmation.

I mean there's no reason to remove them in the first place. You get rid of stuff in localization that you think your target market won't sit well with, and I'm pretty sure Europe's okay with the gays

First off, thanks to this thread for being better than the Fates thread.

Secondly, that thread can be remade for game discussion a week before release date.

Third, do not let this thread get as bad. I will start probating hard.

dude, it's an incredibly vague reddit thread that happens to come right on the heels of another big controversy

if it had happened before now or a couple of weeks from now i'd at least think about it, but the timing is way too perfect for someone who wants to add fuel to the fire

Do not trust anything from reddit unless it has some sort of reliable backup, especially in cases like this.

(Kotaku being 'reliable backup' is debatable.)

The complaints here have been relatively minor, not people boycotting the game and sending rape threats to a totally unrelated employee of the company doing the localization.

Well, Italy isn't, which is the whole problem.

I'm leaning towards it being fake as well, but I wouldn't completely rule it out either.
