you can argue quality has improved if you want, but there is absolutely no denying that Fire Emblem panders to lonely otaku (of both genders) way the fuck harder than it used to, which is what I assume that anon meant by "dignity."
>FE7
characters can support specific characters that have a connection to them, either through backstory or personality. player is given the option to create a tactician self-insert who main characters will occasionally address (often with a compliment), but who has very little bearing on the plot. game functions perfectly well if the player chooses not to create a tactician.
>Fates
main character is a self insert who is also explicitly a paragon of virtue and strategic genius and amazing fighter and also half dragon, and is the main thing that everything in the plot revolves around. the story's main conflict is basically two different parties fighting each other for your affection. every single member of the dozens-strong army can be married off to your self insert, and then brought to a lounge where you rub their body and they say sultry things directly into the camera.
I hope nobody here has deluded themselves into thinking there isn't a massive difference between these two systems, or that the fact that Tiki exists as a character in FE1 is somehow comparable to marrying Nowi in Awakening, or anything similarly ridiculous.
>>381748440
But both Orochi and Kagerou are virgins, as confirmed in the official FE-Fates additional comic.

not sure what you mean by this post. in GBA era / PoR, support convos were only written in specific instances where the writers thought they would be interesting for whatever reason, as opposed to Awakening/Fates where support convos are systematically assigned to basically every pairing of characters imaginable. the older games have drastically fewer supports as a result

that's not even remotely close to what I was trying to say. I'm just saying, the game caters to the otaku demographic more heavily than it used to, and I backed up my claims. I never said that all of 7's supports were good. I never even said that they were better than Fates'.
>>381749440

Here's what you said:
>characters can support specific characters that have a connection to them, either through backstory or personality.
I pointed out that you're wrong, that many of the supports were just funny, stupid conversations that added little or nothing to the game. Just the same as the current iterations.
Most of 7's supports were crap, there were a handful of good ones and about 2 I'd consider great. Awakening/Fates, likewise had many average or meh supports, a good handful that were good and a few I'd consider great. Exactly the same.
You're looking through rose tinted goggles because 7 was the first FE game you played and you didn't see the flaws. You're exactly the same as the people who wonder why we laugh at them when they say Golden Sun was a good RPG, no, it was just the first RPG they played.

See, it's shit like this that shows you're only getting your opinion from other people.
Saizo and Belka's support was legitimately pretty damn good, it's easily in the top third of supports in Fates, the B and A supports are strong enough to carry it even with the shitty C support Treehouse gave us.
And Pickleman had some of the best supports of any of the children, including the absolute best support with F-Kana around.
>I'm not complaining about it, but some people act like Fire Emblem has always been exactly the way it is now re: fanservice. It absolutely has not been.
This, however, is true.
Fire Emblem has been about otaku's and fanservice since 5. Every game after 5 has been trash because of that.
See above for why.
>>381749837
I challenge you to point out the specific line where I shitted on Fates supports, or said that the old supports were good. All I'm saying is that the motivations of the developers, and the audience that they are targeting, has shifted, and that you can see that shift clearly demonstrated in the factors that I described. I'm not saying that the fanservice is bad - just that there's objectively more of it now than there used to be.

>Fates is far harder than either of Ike's games (and the vast majority of the series)
>Fates isn't casual baby shit like Ike's games
>Fates story is about as bad as Ike's second game
Yup. They sure have shifted their demographic. They're now targeting people who're looking for a challenge, rather than "Baby's first Tactical RPG: No need to understand the mechanics Edition"
>>381749907
putting line breaks between separate replies is not "reddit spacing", dumbass.
>>381749952
>characters can support specific characters that have a connection to them, either through backstory or personality
I guess I phrased that incorrectly, so I was wrong. What I meant to say was this - the creation of any given support conversation was based on whether the writers actually came up with something they thought was worthwhile, rather than fulfilling a mandatory support system across almost the entire playable cast.
as a result there are drastically FEWER (not necessarily better) supports and pairing options in the old games, when compared to 12/13. the shipping has become a more highly emphasized part of the game, and that fact is reflected in dev time allocation.
Flora did nothing wrong
>>381750319
I'd say that's Genealogy because FUCK those big ass maps where only horses fucking matter but man I love the story and some of the characters are really well done.
Arvis is easily my fave villain in the series

>as a result there are drastically FEWER (not necessarily better) supports and pairing options in the old games, when compared to 12/13. the shipping has become a more highly emphasized part of the game, and that fact is reflected in dev time allocation.
Yeah, they've instead spent their time making the games an actual challenge and putting in interesting mechanics.
Rather than the booring snoozefest that was the casualised older games.
Why can't we ever have a nice FE thread without mudslinging about the different games?
>>381750861

you'd think I posted something like "this series sucks now, FE7 was way better." I didn't, Conquest is my second favorite FE game after 4. I'm legitimately stunned by how overly sensitive you're being.
>>381750475
pretty strange to jump to the conclusion that I'm a hardcore Telliusfag from a single image.
but that's not actually refuting any of the points I made regarding shipping, fanservice, or the treatment of the player's self-insert. a game series can become less casual, and pander to otaku more at the same time you know? that's exactly what happened
>>381750348
>>381750181
these are also not refutations, in fact they're not even attempts at refutation, so I'm just going to assume that you realize the point about increased fanservice is true in your heart of hearts, but don't want to make a post conceding that it's true because it would deflate your ego. feel free to spend your next post accusing me of saying that the old games were better games, even though I'm not.

>>381751071
you're taking this so poorly that I almost feel like I should apologize for making you upset. I really like Conquest! really, I do. I didn't mean to make you feel self-conscious just because you enjoy a game that panders to otaku. I also enjoy it.
I can't tell whether this thread is oldfags trying to trigger new fans, new fans falseflagging as oldfags to trigger new fans, oldfags falseflagging as new fans to make them look worse, or all of the above.

And you've yet to refute anything about the fact that, despite your own made up insistances that the games have changed demographics, that they've markedly improved over the previous casualised shitfests.
You're just whining because of nostaliga.

I'm the one who keeps getting accused of being an oldfag, even though I like Conquest better than almost all of the other FE games. I'm not trying to trigger anyone but apparently if I point out that 12 and 13 were heavier on fanservice than the older games (and btw I like them better), people just trigger themselves somehow.
