Fire Emblem: Awakening

I thought the music couldn't get any better than Radiant Dawn (which is one of my absolute favorite soundtracks for anything ever), but Awakening's music is absolutely fantastic. The improvement over the DS sound is amazing.

Someone needs to draw a real version of Fred's Chrom fanart.

I tried. My skill in paint is even worse than my real life art skills. Stick figure Chrom is kind of creepy actually.

I am intrigued. Have you still got it around?

Yep.

That is beautiful.

Hey, has anyone else seen the Countdown blog? There is some freaking AMAZING fanart on there.

Yup. I'm following it (and reblogging absolutely everything). Even Nozmo drew a piece of art (she draws/writes a webcomic that I really enjoy).

Do you have a tumblog, Syncronicity?

No... I don't know how to work Tumblr, never even been on the main page.... I don't blog at all, I don't have a Facebook or Twitter either

You should try tumblr out. You don't really have to do anything, you can leave your blog empty if you like and just follow people for the fandom stuff.

There is this one blog I've been stalking for a few months now, and onother that I started stalking a week or two ago... I'm sorta ending up as one of those creeper!anons

Heh, that's what I did for a few months before getting a blog of my own.

Doujinshi fucking WHEN?

Edit: Also, in case you haven't had enough of our favourite Great Knight's antics:



My body is so Freddy for this game. Seven days is too long!

Edit 2: Random, but the power of Tumblr makes me happy:

The fact that I already know what's going on in both of those almost makes me sad, but I'm too busy laughing and praising the translation team to care.

Pfffhahahahaha! What the hell is going on there? And why does Chrom have the mark of Naga on his ass? And oh god he's doing the boobs and butt pose! I always thought you had to have boobs to pull that off, but I guess I was wrong. Chrom's spine must be as flexible as a comic book superheroine's

I caved and finally bought a 3DS for this game. And MH3, but that's besides the point. Much strategy fun-times will be had by all.

What colour? Anything that isn't red is the wrong answer, by the way.

Purple.

It was going to be red, but c'mon. PURPLE.

Is it just me or is that swimsuit kind of small? Not that I mind...

Chrom's got nothing on Kanji in his swimsuit.

His speedo or his emergency seaweed suit?

Yes.

So I just got a call from my local EB games. They got their FE shipment in tonight and they're authorized to sell them! :D

WAT.

I work for that company and I can't even get them early.

My sister in Toronto got a call too! FIRE EMBLEM ALL WEEKEND FOR ME when I get back from Waterloo... Oh, and this early selling is apparently in Toronto area only for now.

In other news, I will be moving to Montreal. Kidding, but wow Canada! On the ball, most def.

I will be awaiting the flailing with vicarious happiness.

Got it!



You have no idea how happy I am right now.

SO JELLY WHY AM I IN WATERLOO.

Nebty, I will forever and always envy you for this moment.

Yaaaaaaaaaaay~!
Meanwhile, debating whether I should buy this, Pokemon X, or Rune Factory 4... I'm almost a college student, I can't spend a hundred twenty dollars on video games in a year... At least, I don't think so... Grumble grumble no sense of money management

I know, dear. And that makes it all the sweeter. ;)

The choice is obviously Fire Emblem. It's made by Intelligent Systems! There is dating and team collecting! Who needs those other games when this game will do what they do better!?

Get Fire Emblem first (since it's coming out in a week and all). RF4 is amazing but it hasn't even been announced (in english) yet, so the earliest we're going to get it is probably summer.

I made up my mind.
I'm going to do it.
I'm ordering the Fire Emblem 3DS.

This Hubba Tester thing is AMAZING.

Oh my...

Robin, how could you. Sully's so awesome. ;_;

I swear, everything I see about this game just makes me love it more.

*SWOONS*

Please explain this beauty to me I'm crying right now since I'm still last-minute-scrounging for enough cash to get my copy once VGP gets their shipment.

Hubba Tester is an option from the extras menu. You can choose two units and this weird old guy will tell you what their compatibility is. I don't know if actually means anything. I know for a fact that Fred and Virion can't, uh, act on their feelings. They don't have supports together.

I'd be sad about that last bit if it weren't for the fact the Hubba Tester feature is a beautiful thing and I am glad I pre-ordered this game. Although I am sad about the lack of supports in general. I remember in the older games you could still have supports between two members of the same gender. Unless they don't have supports precisely BECAUSE of their feelings, in which case, I have a new headcanon now even if it makes no sense.

Thank you, weird old guy! Your contribution to this game is well appreciated.
