I really think the next FE game should go all out and have a complex plot like GoT with lots of deep worldbuilding, multiple plot threads, different PoVs, etc.

It'd have the best plot in its series, probably. I mean, it can't be too hard to outdo the others. As much as I like FE, the stories have never been its strong point.

(fucking SS and Awakening), optional incest between player character and his sister

go play FE4 and FE5

>remaking a game as dark, edgy and serious as the Jugdraal chronology after Awakening set the bar as 'wacky, carefree romance and anime adventures : Power of Friendship Edition'

The new fanbase of Awakeningfags would be devastated.

The darkest moment in Awakening was when Lucina was fighting Grima in the alternate future, and she got a get-out-of-dragon-free card from Naga.

Compare that to the midpoint of FE4, where SPOILER ALERT, the main character and all of his comrades are burnes alive by his best friend, who just revealed to him that he's kidnapped his wife and had been fucking her and impregnated her

I hope they make a remake of FE4.

I can't play an old archaic game like that just for the story. But it sounds like a nicely set up villain. Most villains in FE games aren't very hatable. Nergal was just like an old power-crazed magician, though he was a cunt he wasn't very detestable. The big satan guy who impersonated Lyon in Stones I barely remember. Ashnard was just retarded. And Ashera was well, a godess.

It's possible he isn't a direct descendant of Ike
Marth is said to be Anri's descendant but Anri died with no children of his own, Marth actually descends from Anri's brother, Marcelus or something.
It's possible Priam descends from Mist.
>b-but Ragnell!
It's highly unlikely that Ike took Ragnell with him when he left Tellius, since it was Begnion's royal treasure. In fact I'm almost sure Ragnell stayed in Tellius... just like Mist and her children.

It is cheap fanservice, but until we get some kind of confirmation that it isn't canon, the existence of character and interaction and detailed epilogues is enough evidence to believe they're canon.

Keep in mind we've had ridiculous character survivals before, although I'm pretty sure they said something about the Begnion senators saving him from execution.

Ashnard: Galdr singer, did you come here today so that I might take ownership of you?
Reyson: I have something to ask you. Were you the one who stole the medallion and my sister, Lillia, from Serenes Forest?
Ashnard: You know that already, do you not? Why would you come all this way to ask something you already know? Do you wish me to deny it?
Reyson: If the dark god is awakened, the world will once again be flooded. And this time, even our continent will fall. You will not survive that event... Do you truly desire such an end?
Ashnard: I do. Oh, how I do... It's true. The world may be destroyed by the coming of the dark god. Then again, it may not. I question the way in which our society is designed. No matter what strength a person has, it is the station he is born into that controls his destiny. And you cannot control where you will be born. Do you believe that a person of low birth should simply endure the curse of his station? I think not. If you are stronger than those around you, you should benefit from your strength. This is why I will use my strength to remake this world. Class and rank will not matter. Human and sub-human will not matter. The strong will possess everything. The weak will submit to their will. Is this not the meaning of peace?
Reyson: Are you saying that the lives of those without strength have no value?
Ashnard: That is the natural order. The only way for the weak to survive is to cling to the strong. Our discussion is over. Tell me, frail little bird who cannot fight; which do you choose? Submission? Or death?
Reyson: ...Life proffered to me by your hand is something I would never accept!
Ashnard: Very well... Then I will give you the alternative! You will be a weight around my neck no more!

It's not really as "old and archaic" as you think. The only difference from recent games is the maps having SNES-graphics.

>Combat scenes are better than GBA because they're dynamic, as opposed to the same animation
>Skills, as opposed to... Lethality in the GBA games
>Generation system like Awakening
>Manfroy + Julius are pretty much your average FE villain, Lopt Sect is pretty boring

The only downside is no True Hit, which is admittedly annoying. It's no so bad in Genealogy because your units can actually take some punishment because inflated HP. But in Thracia, forget about it.

How anyone liked it plot/character wise is beyond me, unless they played it when they were fucking 10.
Gameplay wise, do I need to say anything? It's easy as shit and the most boring GBA FE.

You know, this whole spiel about strong and weak reminded me.

The game is set up around the Laguz being discriminated against, but can you blame Beorc for it? Most likely, the situation was reversed long ago, since Laguz are born with power, while Beorc have to obtain it through invention and perserverance.

That would probably go to FE8. At least HHM provided some kind of challenge.

laguz were probably feeding on beorc children at some point
>>
>>267491216
HHM is the only thing nice about it, yes. But 8 has an overall better game feel with the improved GUI, font and graphics, branched promotions and story mode (plus a story written by actual writers), post game dungeons and Hard mode unlocked right away. To unlock HHM you needed to finish the game.. Twice? OF course everyone just uses a save, but it's just easier to have a funnier time with 8 than 7.

Because the plot would have been significantly better if she was taken out.
>>
>>267491130
Most of 7's writing is meh, but Nergal is a pretty well written character if you look at everything
>Aenir - taken away, so he goes off in search of her
>Ninian + Nils - his half dragon children that he wants to protect
>Brammimond and Theodore - explain how Dark Magic warps you around your greatest desire

He wants to open the Dragon Gate to see Aenir again, but after Dark Magic warps him, he only knows he wants to cross the Dragon Gate, and assumes it's just for power.
His death quote, if you do every map in HM changes to him realizing this.

No, I'm actually serious
Micaiah had to do awful stuff, but that's war, Ike killed people too.
She was just trying to defend her people

Micaiah: I… I want to save them all. The world is a better place with people like them in it.
Sothe: I know how you feel, Micaiah. That’s why we started all this. We’ve always been fighting for them. But this war we’re in… It’s not just. We’re fighting on the wrong side.
Micaiah: I know. I don’t want to see anyone die. It’s ironic… I’m killing with no malice, because I don’t want anyone to be killed. I… What am I supposed to do? Am I supposed to stand back and let all of Daein perish? Is that the “just” thing to do?
Sothe: …
Micaiah: If that’s what it takes to be just, then I want nothing to do with justice. I’d rather be hated and feared like Mad King Ashnard. I’d rather the dark god take my soul. I’m going to save my people, Sothe. If the rest of the world paints me as a beast to be reviled and hated, so be it.

When this series will stop be boring? I mean in each game after a few maps you have an OP unit which soloing the whole map. No sense of depth or tactics. Each map in everygame goes like this
>send an op unit ahead
>every enemy unit will proceed to attack op unit regardless of their chances to survive the duel.
>move further
Tfw no tactics: ogre remake or continue of tearring sagas.
>>
>>267495560
Because Awakening is retarded casual shit.

AI is smarter in GBA and SNES games
>>
>>267492597
Every single character had to kill people. Micaiah is nothing special, the plot and writers force her to be a special character simply because the plot demands it. She's a poorly written mary-sue, who people only recently started liking because waifu faggots started invading Fire Emblem threads.
>>
>>267488747
Whilst you end up hating Arvis and Trabant at the end of gen1, you do end up seeing their motives and who was manipulating them in gen 2 and FE5, which makes them a whole lot more sympathetic.
My only gripe is that what happened to a lot of characters isn't really explained in the games (like what Levin does in between)
>>
>>267495560
Awakening has poorly designed maps, poorly designed units, and even worse AI. The GC and Wii Fire Emblem games actually have the AI use some semblance of tactics, units will trade Vulnearies, try to block you, use the weapon triangle and actually act with some sort of intelligence.

What the fuck are you going on about? The Vs Reyson thing adds nothing important to the game aside from plot.
Also, you are posting a level where the AI is SPECIFICALLY TOLD to attack and kill targets, of course if you chokepoint them they're going to keep throwing themselves at you, it's what they're programmed to do. I forget if Awakening even has a 'defend this guy' mission, I haven't played it in a few months.

Levin died, dude. The "Levin" that accompanies Celice is relvealed to be Holsety, the god of wind. That's why he seems to be so cold towards his children in the second gen. I believe it happens in the ending, there's a translated version on YouTube if you haven't seen it:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ue6npUg3aFk

Apparently if you beat the game many times, there's an extended intro that shows the circumstances of Levin's death. He survived the Belhalla massacre and tried to take on Manfloy by himself, but Manfloy kills him with Jörmungandr. Then Holsety revives him and inhabits his body:

yeah I have played it actually, although I will admit that I overstated Sigurd's relationship with Alvis.

they definitely were friendly, though. Alvis congratulates and welcomes Sigurd to Barhara before BBQ'ing him, and knights Sigurd at the beginning of the story.

As for your claim that FE4 is 'played in a light-hearted way', I've got no idea what you could possibly mean by that. I mean it's not DESPAIR DESPAIR DESPAIR LIFE IS POINTLESS, but basically nothing good happens to Sigurd from the point he meets Deirdre. It's a very dark and tragic tale
