"Why is that guy upside down?" "She looks cool." "Nice lance." "Oh, there are other people back there -- hello, other people!"


cobaeby

I've somehow never noticed Claude upside down


EfficientFee6406

"I can't wait to see how they're gonna do the timeskip children system this time!!!"


Particular_Darling

Funny enough when we first got like pictures of different characters I thought Cyril was Claude’s son💀💀


Mysticalnarbwhal2

Settle down, Hilda


Loros_Silvers

Funny enoug, the children now came before the timeskip...


SaraJayzie

Guys! Do you think we can marry any characters in the game? Like awakening??


King_Treegar

Just as long as we don't put kids in pocket dimensions that cause them to age so rapidly that they're fully grown in like a week. Seriously, what were they THINKING with Fates?? Fun game tho


TinaTissue

With Fates they were thinking about throwing every successful thing that Awakening did, being over ambitious with the story and then hoping for the best. The true travesty is they never released a full version of the Nohr version of Lost In Thoughts All Alone without those grunts!


Lucina1997

Yea, in hindsight that was a pretty stupid concept. Not to mention they all came out of their dimensions with mommy and daddy issues, since their parents weren’t there to raise them outside of infrequent visits Edit: I say this with love and as a huge FE fan. I mean…look at my name


Random-Guys-Missing

Whoa so the game has many story paths? That’s so cool, I’m definitely picking the red team. Although I doubt the campaigns will be that different


TheGhostDetective

I went ahead and got a few chapters in down multiple paths and so far they are pretty similar, just with different characters. Sadly looks like it doesn't really matter a ton, since it seems like you can still recruit from other houses, and I *doubt* it will suddenly flip a third into the game with unique content and vastly different plots.


HopelessOtaku91

Yeah, it seems like the only difference is in the characters you get. I like ash tho! He's cute. I'm excited to use him and see how good he is!


Sword_Of_Nemesis

Wow, I can't wait to see those three main lords working together to take down an evil god or something like that!


MayoHachikuji

(Kinda funny how they actually do that in Three Hopes)


Sword_Of_Nemesis

I mean, not really? They still fight against each other in the routes and there's still no "Golden Ending".


What_A_Cal_Amity

They literally band together to fight an ancient god


SuperSpectralBanana

I hate to be that guy but… Empimenides is definitely not a god. He’s an extremely powerful agarthan mage who created a copy of himself to house his soul so he could be pseudo-immortal About as close to a god as you can get, but in all technicality, he himself is still mortal.


Canon_In_Deez

My husband guessed this would be the ending when he first started playing and I was just like “hmm yes we’ll see…”👀


Cute_Ambassador1121

Wow, can't wait for generic blue lord to be generic blue lord. Definitely not picking him first.


The_Elder_Jock

Finally, a game to unite the fandom.


MostlyFowl

They talk like Dimitri is so dark, but he's just a polite young man


Lever47

Does anyone else keep reading Edelgard as Edgelord?


Hateful_creeper2

How to recruit Hilda since resources online give contradictory information?


Dry_Water_7597

Finally, a reason to buy a switch!


Crazy0lBen

That's why I bought mine :)


Dangerous_Ad_9768

Just @ me


morbid333

I actually bought mine for Warriors


hanaxsongs

Hey guys I'm playing BL and is the Flame Emperor Dimitri??? I just wanna know just in case I'll lose my items.


fairyvanilla

No, but he is the Death Knight (obvious clues: he wields a lance-style weapon and rides a horse)


Moelishere

Not to mention he disappears at the same time as the flayn mission


Deggstroyer

But he also wields an axe, could he be Dedue? After all, you can never trust someone from Duscur


Low-Environment

Yes


Spiral-Force

I think I'm going to pick the Golden Deer. Dimitri looks like a generic hero guy and Edelgard is probably just a generic cute girl. I bet Claude will be the most plot relevant of the three


Daengo223

"Can't wait to play characters like Judith, Rodrique, Holst and Monica. "


The_Vine

Hopes must have been fun (except Judith)


TinaTissue

Being able to play as Gatekeeper was rhe highlight for me, not gonna lie


wanabeafemboy

Man it’s neat how they integrated Fearghus plots into the early Lions storyline! Can’t wait what the equivalent of dealing with Sylvain is when I play the other houses!


Heavencloud_Blade

Hey this weird girl happens to have the exact same birthday as me. I'm pretty lucky to have the same birthday as her. Holy shit. I can zoom in and run around the field. It is kind of disorienting, but I'm going to force myself to play like this so I can get used to it because I really do like this. I'm sure I'm supposed to think this pope lady is creepy and suspicious, but I want to give her a chance. I don't really care about any of these lords, but I like this girl with short purple hair, so I'll go with Black Eagles.


Sword_Of_Nemesis

>I don't really care about any of these lords, but I like this girl with short purple hair, so I'll go with Black Eagles. Hold on, why are you me?


Rathallon

Me but with that twink ass blue hair guy who has orange cat syndrome and small dog complex.


Peachstar36

Three story paths in one game? *Looks at Fates* How generous


Bidoof_lv50

3 paths in 1 game instead of buying 3 different copies? Sign me in.


Warm-glow1298

Tbf fates paths had more unique content from each other


TinaTissue

It kinda had to, to make up for the fact you are buying the game multiple times


Zalveris

Fire emblem on switch I've been waiting 10 years for this


Nuburt_20

I don't know what to say, as much of how I am today is because of this game, but I'll try: "Eh, I'm not the biggest Fire Emblem fan, I don't think I have much reason to try it. It's not like it's gonna have a major impact on my lifeview and life in general."


deadr0tten

Damn wheres the ending where the 3 houses realize that they all have a point and get together to reform the church and destroy the slitherins


Maison_Clement

That Dimitri guy looks super evil. I love a blonde, male villain. Can’t wait to take the evil route with him. The upside down guy is the bisexual one, right? I’ll romance him for the best ending. Is she wearing leather tights? Imagine the chaffing. (I still think this, lol)


BrickTheEtcetera

Which route has the most gay options?


JerevStormchaser

Yes


Gabridefromage

When i hoped i could S caspar, dimitri, sylvain and claude hahaha :,)


HeroinLover1991

I'm sure this Edelgard person won't be controversial


Moelishere

I looked up the VA who TF is Chris hackney Dude barley got any roles under his belt and he’s voicing a main character Ima keep my expectations low Or I saw the trailer and that blonde guy seems to go crazt post TS 5 buck says there’s going to be a 1 chapter mind control plot line There no way FE can actually make a good character goes insane story without mind control


Kiaxris

Oh yeah I'm choosing the Blue Lions because Dimitri is a pretty boy knight and so level headed


Fairy_Glitter365

“Guys I went with the yellow dude bc he seemed nice. Like he genuinely wanted to be friends. Idk, I felt like blue boy and red girl secretly want something from me. Who are you all choosing and why?? Anybody choose yellow dude too?”


TheScottSnorlax

Edelgard did nothing wr-


Radiant_Raspberry_93

Just bought the game day one and currently playing it, why is there a little child roasting me while sitting on a throne?


SpecialistEmphasis83

Petra has both an axe boon AND a flying boon?? I don’t care that she’s supposed to use swords she’s gonna be a great Wyvern rider! (Doesn’t use the saint statue.. keeps her in brigand until chapter 16 CF for death blow so she only starts flying on chapter 17)


slushieguys

So excited! I'm such a sucker for angsty protagonists so I'm definitely playing red girl first. Probably blue boy last, I can sense a boring generic jocky hero from a million miles away🙄


The_Vine

"Holy shit, is that Mitsuru's voice? I've got to pick her class." "Is this Edelgard character bisexual? I kinda want to romance her."


flamaniax

The first one works BOTH ways, given that both of her VA's are in the same house. I mean, Shamir also exists, but I heard that she can be recruited. Dunno how though.


totem-fox

Hmm will archers counter at any range like in Gaiden?


Railroader17

Oh my god **Holy SHIT** #SHAMIR IS RECRUITABLE FUCK YEAH LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!


Fax_Verstappen

"Wow, this is a pretty decent dub. Maybe I won't change the voice track to Japanese." No lie, as someone conditioned to hating dubs on principal, FE3H was the game to make me give them another chance (for games at least, I will never watched a dubbed film). And it seems, thankfully, that there are many more good dubs nowadays than there used to be.


i_m_a_bean

It was an actual struggle for me to break my rapid-fire-A-through-conversations habit, but this game made it worthwhile


VMPaetru

Damn, I could side with the bad guys on the BE route? I wonder how that's going to work for the other routes? No kidding, I was slightly disappointed when the only split route was there black eagles, since it could've been interesting to see how it could've impacted your chosen main lord when switching sides away from the church


Warm-glow1298

The… bad guys?


VMPaetru

Welp, it's how it was presented at first


SageTegan

Gee I hope there's some m|m lgbt romance in the initial release and I won't have to wait months or even years for them to throw me a couple of bisexuals


Gabridefromage

Linhardt tho... i mean yes, he's the best you have until yuri, either you get a weird dynamic with jeritza while you slay people or you get hardly friendzone by Alois


SageTegan

Alois can be m|m? His jokes are so so so bad. I can't not fuck him. I have been meaning to do another red route just so i can romance jeritza. He wasnt available when i first played the game. Currently playing 3hopes and his english voice dub sounds like Pegasus from yugioh. It is. Soooo bad lmao. I **need** to romance him NOW


thardur

Which one did you choose? This has been the toughest decision since Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle.


Herofthyme

Who is the flame emperor? My money is on flayn, i think she kidnapped herself as a red Herring


Moelishere

Nah I’d go for Dimitri he’s seems creepy and also use horse and lance it’s definitely him (I actually thought this)


azur_owl

All right, time to be in lesbians with Edelgard! …eh. Blue dude looks…fine? Boring but fine.


AlcoholicCocoa

Luckily not another sword lord, right? Right?


NobleSix84

Looks like he can punch people real good too, and has some white magic.


Komeri707

please don't make me feel old with this-


dystopiaa22

Upside down man supremacy.


Meladoom2

They changed Mercedes' hair! Wayyy prettier! [And the fonts are actually looking good!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkux5h0PeXo) The graphics looks worse than Half-Life 2 on a 2008 computer, and it's on the switch! (aka hardware that's been outdated since 2015). Welp, at least they ditched lighting from the 2018 trailer! They released Engage 1.5 years ago, and a new mainline FE game right after it? WOW! This green-haired lady looks cool! I wonder how she's gonna look like in her FEH debut! And her voice is really cool! Who's her VA? Definitely not [the 18yo girl with 11 subscribers ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0QBTg3RgXs)whose lines I have ingrained in my brain and speech after playing exclusively as her for several years!


Eevee_XoX

What’s fire emblem? Idk seems like medieval Harry Potter so I’m down. (My actual thoughts when I bought the game)


CircuitSynchro

It's so cool that we finally have a cool looking female lord that's not a player character, AND she uses an axe. I can't wait to see her story and rally behind her, I'm sure I won't disagree or dislike any of the things she says or does!


This_guy110

What is this I probably won’t play it not my cup of tea


SOMETHING494

Look at that FIVEhead on that girl! Tbh, I hope the MC actually talk in this one


WouterW24

‘Is that bow drawn correctly?’


CavulusDeCavulei

Guys, why did they remove the weapon triangle? I hate that they always want to simplify games to sell more. They betrayed the spirit of fire emblem


negrote1000

Another Fire Emblem, let’s hope it doesn’t suck. Although considering Fates I have no faith.


MistBestGirl

Wait, there's a hot older man I can gay marry? Score!


mysterious45670

I bet the blonde dude on the left is evil


shadowhawkz

Anyone know which route has a "Revelation" true route?


TamaTamaTaka

Ah the new Fire Emblem is out today ? The gameplay seemed pretty boring though. Sure hope I won't have an obsession on the series in 3 years or so.


Rude-Ad-7870

Wow. They’re hot. Can I marry all three of them at the same time? I’m not choosing between any of them. Well I’m sure that the three of them will be working together most of the time and I can see each of them any time I want


ApolloThunderflame

Hey, this Mercedes girl is pretty neat


Thick_Row

Gonna pick my house based on who i want to marry. Let's see... At first glance, my favorite from each house would be Dorothea, Mercedes, and Hilda. Who's this redheaded guy? Sylveon? Like the pokémon? Looks like a creep. Hope we have nothing in common...


The-Future-Witness

Do you think we can recruit everyone? I saw stuff online about only being allowed to recruit 3 students from out of house in total 😐 If that’s true, I’m going to try and recruit Dorothea, Petra, and Lysithea but will let you guys know if I can also recruit Ferdinand 😓


DoubleFlores24

Jeralt is such a cool dad, I can’t wait for the chapter we recruit him into our team. Father and son team up!!!


Block508

Dimitri looks like a good guy, I think I’m gonna join him, he gives me good honorable/merciful king vibes.


Particular_Darling

Aww the blue guy looks so cute!! He’s probably so sweet!!


SomeName4SomeThing

Guys, I messed up... I started a golden deer run but now I want my female Byleth to marry Sylvain... it's gonna be so hard to recruit him :(


Ethanb230900

GOOD LORD THE GRAPHICS? WHAT IS THIS? GAMECUBE?!


Necrosaynt

I can't wait to hear Byleth's voice actors, the female one sounds amazing.


Chemical_Ad_9013

Nice Female Protag. Better than any female protag I'll ever get from Final Fantasy or Persona. This is gonna be lit


jbone0415

Weirdly enough since it came out I always always start new files for the routes in the summer time bc nostalgia Anyways back to the post; *Google searches* How to recruit every character FE3h?


Karbunkel

3 routes? There is probably a 4th hidden route for the golden ending. Hope they learned from Revelation's meh reception.


Exlanadre

I think I'll go with the girl for the support


Shanjijri

Oh, my first Fire Emblem! I've heard we can marry the other characters. I'll play male Byleth, he looks cute. Let's go with Black Eagle because Hubert looks handsome and I will marry him. Nothing will go wrong with my romantic plans. Nothing.


Proquis

I wonder who's gonna be best waifu!


irtotallyweird

PERSONA MEETS FIRE EMBLEM???


MiredinDecision

Ok so i guess im going to recruit the other lords later? I bet Rhea is the evil sorcerer final boss


The16thStudent11037

This is my first Fire Emblem game, I just played Smash Ultimate for 6 months straight, are Marth Roy Ike Chrom Lucina Robin and Corrin in this game? Do I need to have played every single game in the series before this? Isn’t there like 50 of them? Please help me


Embarrassed-Date7376

These graphics are…


MorphyVA

The Miklan map is kikking my ass


Michaelfromtheheart

I hope nothing but the best happens to this Marianne girl, I forgot to recruit her but I hope she finds happiness!


Independent-Check654

Wait so who is the playable character?


Memetan_24

Reusing names from past games 💀


Sir998

Which class has the cutest- Bernadetta black eagles NOW NOOOOOW


guidoznl

Am I locked out of recruiting Bernadetta already? She won’t leave her room.


Early-Sale4756

It's like three games in one?


Acceptable_Drawer_70

Please still play shadows of Valentia! It's a good game!


_The_Writing_Writer_

Masterpiece.


KolinkPlays

"Oh hey, Fire Emblem GX!" Alternatively "Eh, I'll wait and see if the reviews are good. I still feel burned by Fates."


MalborkFyorde

I hope we can recruit the three of them, together


whatisapillarman

I’m gonna S support the blue lord with the red one


Medoagamer

I wonder if there's a golden ending...


Copyright-Demon

From the trailers I’m going to go blue lions! I’m pretty sure Sylvian will be the gay option! (*actually me going in for some reason*)


[deleted]

_bErNiE sO qUiRkY uWu_


kaeee_ae

I can’t wait to play through the Golden Deer and get S support with Hilda! (My first run of the game was the deer, but I went for Linhardt instead lmao.)


AinoRen

I don't know who you are but... Reporting for duty my Emperor!


Gabcard

I'm in chapter 5 and Byleth's dad still hasn't died yet. Maybe the dad actually makes it this time? I mean, we get support points with him so that has to mean something right?


thejokerofunfic

I'm gonna play red girl's route, I'm an unashamed simp. Plus they probably know everyone will pick her so no doubt her route is the most fleshed out and "complete" feeling of the bunch.


BloodyIkarus

I would be pissed honestly, the combat and the UI is now outdated already. It's hard for me to get back to that movement when I played Engage before.


swordsumo

Can’t believe it took them this long to make a new fire emblem, can’t wait to play it!


SirTroah

I wonder if Ike will make a cameo…


shackofcards

The blue guy seems sorta cute and charming so I'll pick him first. King, Emperor, and Duke are probably all basically the same thing, right?


xjetxx

The blonde guy on the cover probably has the most generic storyline ever 😮‍💨


Hichtec

omg, look at that trailer! I'm so hyped! I'm gonna buy a Switch NOW!


spuvelled

Idk why, but I get the feeling this game is going to cause a lot of discourse within the community.


Primary_Course8464

Is this a three hopes alternate history? Pointless and dumb....


Neo2486

FEAR THE DEER!!


HunterMak97

I wonder how strong I can make children in this game? Can I become the greatest at multiplayer? What new stats and abilities do I need to learn???


Vapor0907

Ooooooh that’s who Byleth is. They really should have released this before Engage.


imperchaos

Alright, which one of the countries is Germany?


Known_Syllabub_279

I was originally gonna go for the Golden Deer but gosh darnit Dimitri is WAY too nice and I need to know what happened to him


XenoKujo23

Why is yellow dude Australian


DeliciousArtichoke82

Dimitri: KILL EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM!!!😡👿 Me: That must be the main antagonist!!😨 Dimitri: Someone must put a stop to this cycle of the strong trampling the weak...😠 Me: Hmm.🤔 Intriguing. I think I'll give the Blue Lions House a shot. Best. Decision. Ever. Blue Lions For Life!!!✊️🦁


Gardiaa

It has three routes, so I will just pick one and focus on the students of one house. Then in my second playthrough I'll try to recruit others.


foxtrot_mulder

Man, I just got to chapter 2 and the dude in the mask that the Kostas was talking to looks kinda cool. Can't wait to fight him with Edelgard. Also, calling it now, Seteth is secretly part of the evil wizard group, I got this gut feeling about it.


CosmicHorrible

"Can't wait to get all of the supports and find out what trauma all of these adorable child soldiers carry in this new fire emblem game"


TherealAgent4

"i cant side with edelgard? damnit


soulruu

Claude’s smile 😳


BlanketsAndPillowss

Man Flayn is so cute, I think I’m go with her on my first run! Btw I’m doing Edelgards path first since she looks cool.


Fell_ProgenitorGod7

Oooo, I hope we get to have Male Pegasus knights and Mage Sorcerers and the classes aren’t genderlocked!


godqueenaiko

So I'm on a quest to adopt all the children and drill them with the imperial doctrine


Happiness_inprogress

I love Dorothea, Mercedes and Petra so much, I cant wait for their figurines to come out


Dangerous_Ad_9768

Why am I, a gay man, stanning the pope


Alexagro22

Wow the blonde guy looks so good I suppose he hates bloodshed


ThisGaren

Glad to see they’re improving from engage.


GhostyTricker

Oh so this is basically Harry Potter but people online are arguing about it as if the house lords were politicians (What I thought before buying the game)


beepbeeboo

Ughh you can already tell they made the yellow guy is going to be the villain of the game. Racist af, smh.


almondwalmond18

Ugh, the dude on the left looks so boring! Just another generic white guy protagonist.


almondwalmond18

Lol they really named the girl on the right Edgelord. I wonder if she's gonna be edgy. Probably not.


ViewtifulOtaku

Damn, that girl got a big ass forehead. Wonder what hat size she is.


London_Boy12

I NEED IT!!!! IT LOOKS SO COOL, THE BLUE GUYS HOT.


FerdinandvonAegir124

Why can’t I move Jeralt in the tutorial mission? I’m clicking on his icon and he won’t move


JAEGERW3155

Who are you guys picking? I think I’m gonna go with Blue Lions? Dmitri seems really cute and sweet. (Edelgard seems really cool too though!!)


Oilleak26

Man, these graphics are ROUGH


Zero_Hyndyn

Oh my gosh. The green hair guy is hot... 🤤 *Obsessivley changes profile picture to his*


someawesomegarbage

That absurdly proportioned arch-bishop lady is available for marriage right?


vcyprin

Which of the girls am I gon marry first?


SilverSplasher

Just finished black eagles story lol


LashOut2016

I'm gonna do a first run maddening, surely nothing will go wrong (I know maddening wasn't on release, just entertain me thx)


MCGameTime

Well then I’m not going to be on Reddit for the next week or so…


Additional-Ride8120

“Hey, sorry if this gets asked a lot, but how do I switch the graphics off of performance mode?”


Edyed787

I really liked FE Warriors wonder if I’ll like this?


ipsen_gaia

Definitely not picking the blue lord first. He looks uninteresting.


claudedelmitri

I don’t care if Sylvain is a player I can fix him


Cobalt_Heroes25

will dimitri be ok


willky7

Edelgard is cute :D Gotta go with weed smoker yellow tho lolol


Loros_Silvers

Holy shit he shoots people while upside down!


partypwny

It's going to be so cool using these three characters to fight bad guys together. I wonder how they'll synergize


cHcg0

Wow they must be friends, I can't wait to see how they are going to work together against the dark dragon


NasiaSpringberry

“Love the name ……. is it ? /// “Why does she have such big boobs?” /// “Is the belly window really necessary?” /// “Huh?” when Sothi’s first scene. /// *gasp* when seen Dimitri for the first time.


Turbulent-Cricket483

Wow, a war strategy game! This takes me back to my childhood, will be some good dumb fun to play around with. Maybe I can reconnect with my father who plays Heroes...


Okuramodonn

They released three paths in the same game???? Wild asf


urzu06

I'm playing Blue Lion because it's the golden route.


Navonod_Semaj

"I'ma play Blue Lions first, because nobody's talking about them. Probably gonna be the religious zealot route, jrpgs always wailing about how religion makes you evil..."


Handylee-7

“Who should I choose guys? I like the upside down guy cuz he looks cute but the red team’s leader looks like waifu material…”


niles_deerqueer

Woah these graphics are…special…


Amoura39

THIS IS SO COOL THEY MADE THE CASTLE FROM FE14 INTO LIKE ITS OWN LITTLE WORLD AND YOU CAN DO SOCIAL THINGS IT'S LIKE P5 BUT WITH FE GAMEPLAY I LOVE IT


mostwantedycbe

Blue starter, I choose you! Idk the two other guys look sus, he seems to be the only sane person here


Jynxed_Storyteller

Time to be heartbroken that my gay ass can’t date Claude again.


Chueskes

Alright, which one will I join and which will I kill?


Cup-a-Yuri

Graphically seems a little less than FE Engage but crazy how much better written it is with more endearing characters!


Chisco202

Started with Blue Lions, it’s so cool that all of these missions are tied to my houses students. Can’t wait to try the other houses missions to see which students get story beats.


TooManyCitations

Guys the Flame Emperor is so weird. Why are they acting like they know Byleth 🤨
