Uh, from here it just sounds like Fire Emblem: Awakening.

Anyone familiar with the Amnesia Fortnight prototypes? Is this project based on one of them? Or is it a completely new thing?

I love Awakening, but the prospect of a Western, Double Fine Awakening without the anime component of Fire Emblem sounds pretty rad.

Did people forget about Joan of Arc? Not that everything said about her is entirely true (being a national folk legend will make people tell a lot of stories more or less true about you) but still, isn't she proof a woman could become important in the time period?

To be clear I'm fine with them not having a woman character in their game if it rock their boat or their fans' boat, but I think their "realism" excuse is kind of bullshit as is the "gently caress political correctness man" one.

Boycotting companies, state and poo poo I understand, but people's private money? I don't know, I think that's discriminatory.
Just because someone is a Israeli citizen doesn't mean they support the Apartheid.

The thing is that the hardware team that made the 3DS isn't going to do nothing for a year, and they aren't going to fire them. Accessories and that sort of thing haven't really worked out sales-wise, so they just shove another console down the pipeline. So you can bet that right after the 3DS ships, they're working on R&D and design for a new system.

Nintendo's business strategy has never been to support a console for a long time and make sure it's solid. They ship one piece of hardware, and then they're done with it. This might now change when they actually merged the ten different hardware R&D departments into one, and put the OS and hardware teams on the same floor in the same sort of cubicle space, but it's a slight chance.

And hey, maybe this will finally be the console with third-parhahahahahahahahah nope.

The 3DS has plenty of third party support.

So, Obsidian removed a transphobic "joke" from backer submitted content that slipped past their vetting process (not surprising, given the amount of backer submitted content there was). Naturally, plenty of "true gamers" are flipping their poo poo over how Obsidian has betrayed them to feminazis.

Where was it in the game? I thought I read something weird in one of the memorials.

If they're 2D, they're not models. (SOTN doesn't have a lot of real "sprites", either; almost everything that looks like a sprite is a texture mapped to a flat rectangle.) This is a dumb argument.
