Rimusutera posted:eh Fate's world building was kind of shallow in places but a 'name for a continent' is not the basis for, nor make or break of, fantasy worldbuilding. No. It's just the most baseline expectation for worldbuilding. Like, if you can't be bothered with one of the easiest things in the world, something that an intern could write in the margins of the artbook, that doesn't speak well of the amount of effort overall.

The Witcher is literally set on a place that everyone just calls "The Continent" and "The World" I'm not sure this is actually the key defining piece of whether there's effort put into world building or not.

i can't believe you're bothering to argue with the person who went straight from "fates didn't even bother to give its world a name!" to "wait hold on, is giving the world a name really so important?" as if that was literally the only problem

I think Hoshido and Nohr work as the names of the continents just fine. Like the Fire Tribe totally counts as a different nation than where the 4 royals live (Shirasagi) and so do the other like 4 or 5 kingdoms/tribes you find throughout that place. Just think of them as an intercontinental landmass sorta-dealio like Eurasia. Just... Y'know, less developed.

i can't wait for fire emblem fates 2: this time it's actually Good  fates had many problems, especially needing like a name-name for the actual continent like magvel and then keep the country namesand personally it'd be p sick to have an FE in like, fantasy southeast asia or smth

If the COs could hang out between battles and eventually smooch, Advance Wars would still be alive today.

Fateslandia has a canon name, but if it was spoken it would drat us all. Yes: That even includes me, your old buddy Wark.

One thing I'd really like in a new FE is modular difficulty settings. Failing that, at least give us a difficulty or two between "too easy" and "horseshit".

IntSys should build in optional modifiers for NG+ for the next FE, like Reverse Recruitment or every character starting in their alt class (if that’s a thing like in Fates)

you can have worldbuilding without giving the continent a name, but fateslandia not having a name feels less like a decision and more like something that happened because they didnt care. the world map in game is also extremely bland and boring, and there's maybe 5 or 6 identifiable locations in the entire game.

I dunno, I like the idea of an FE protagonist whose canonical attitude is "we're in the middle of a war, stop flirting with me" for sheer novelty value if nothing else.

Strange Matter posted:And see I feel like Ike can do way better than Soren. Soren is in no way equipped to handle any kind of human relationship and him shacking up with Ike just feels like it's a dead-end for Ike more than anything else. Ike has way more chemistry with Ranulf in the base conversation at the start of RD Part 3 than he does with Soren in the entire game (which is largely the fault of RD's lack of supports entirely) What? Soren's kind of a bastard and he's got some deep seated self-loathing going on but how is he not equipped to handle a human relationship? He's not a broken person or anything. Also, really don't think Ike does much flirting in PoR. That's a real weird take.

Ike literally has a whole base convo in PoR where Gatrie tries to goad him into ogling women, which he sighs at and leaves. So that uh. Sure is a take!
