That's probably where the Smithing Stones come in. Chances are you can either buy a regular weapon new from the shop at its fixed price, or repair a weapon you already have at a discounted price in addition to those Smithing Stones.

Those Smithing Stones would have to be used to repair your better, rarer, and PRF weapons as well, so you decide whether to just keep buying stuff straight from the shop to save the Stones for your special weapons, or keep repairing everything that breaks so you're not stuck using your rarer weapons when you want to save them for later.

Did you know that Japan will celebrate the release of Three Houses with a set of plushies varying from 5 characters? They are Marth, Roy, Ike, Lucina and Corrin (female). Just pre-ordered one plush of Ike and can't wait for the end of the month to get it!

It's not stupidly overpriced as SoV's Season Pass (and its strange wave bundles) or lacking in content as Fates's Western DLC (we missed maps for some reason).

We got all the DLC except the two festival DLCs based around the kid/parent interactions
Presumably the cost to translate all of the dialog and their many variations for each combo outweighed the amount that would be brought in

Very glad there's no dumb as hell overclass dlc, though. Echoes' DLC was just...something else, really.

If this is true, it's funny Nintendo didn't do it because of this, when they happily helped with DQVII's text-heavy nature.

DQ7 is a full game in a series they want to do well in the west

it's almost like the contexts are completely different!

Apparently the director of Three Houses claims he finished the game around 80 hours. Of course he also mentioned that he didn't skipped any cutscenes. I wonder if that's a good or bad thing. There's lengthy and there's just too much.

it reminds me of the aounuma saying Twilight Princess was like 60 hours long if yo udid everything
it could reach that length but it's questionable how many actually would, even with 100%.

especially if he had battle animations turned on or went out of his way to fill in a lot of the support log

The FE4 beats coming from 3H weren't coincidence. A new interview with Kusakihara and Yokota confirms the inspiration and premise for the game.

https://www.rpgsite.net/interview/8...ing-the-beloved-strategy-rpg-series-to-switch

Kusakihara: In truth it's not from Harry Potter, or Persona, or anything like that - it actually links back to an older Fire Emblem. Back a long time ago, we developed a game for the Super Famicom called Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War. When you look at the story, the three characters were from a monastery - they were friends, they worked together - and then they have to go to battle against each other. That's almost the same plot as that older game, if you look at that. So we had the image of this old game in mind before - that's maybe our most significant influence on this project.

They took the conflict of Chapter 2/3 in Genealogy, and expanded that into a full game. Does this make Dmitri the Blue Lionheart. :V

The interview also has a few more noteworthy things:

1) Battalions is a concept Kusakihara had wanted to use for a while, but couldn't make it work on the handheld entries since Radiant Dawn
2) All the playable characters in 3H are available right from the start, intentionally, so you can support and learn about everyone at once instead of it being staggered like in other games.
3) Heroes and Warriors are considered legacy games by them, meant to celebrate the old characters, while they push forward with new casts for new games. What this means for potential remakes, and/or if they have ideas for another potential game in this mold, is not clear.
4) Porting Tokyo Mirage Sessions to the Switch is up to Atlus.

Gameexplain has a bunch of videos on Fire Emblem Three Houses right now. Here's the intro and I'm honestly a bit surprised. I know it's a Fire Emblem game and the violence is nothing too big but still was not expecting it since it's still a Nintendo game.

There is buzz going down that Three Houses has broken street date in China. The game is out in the wild.

For those wanting to avoid spoilers, now is the time to mute words on social media and be on lockdown.

So while everyone here waits for Fire Emblem Three House to be released, which house are you going to first choose? I'm thinking about the Black Eagles.

On a side note, it's probably just nothing but with a bigger symbolic emphasis on animals, what do you think that Fenrir-like-wolf-on-top-of-the-planet-reminding-you-of-Ragnarok could be? Just thought I'd point out, seems pretty specific. Like a wolf alone may seem normal but a fierce wolf standing on top of the world, now what could that be hinting to lol.

The story dlc is said to be a side story more than anything else, so a new house/group makes sense to use.

Also Dimitri has risen in interest faster than any FE character before release I think. Early on he was dead last by far from what I’ve seen, and now he might be my pick.

shoz is just speculating based on the officially released like a week ago image, bobjr is speculating based on the eshop description of the dlc and I am making a joke based on that
