![]() From what I understand, game devs often laugh at what players think would be better implementation, because game development is complicated and players tend to focus on one thing that they think should be improved over all of the other aspects the devs could focus on. Customization of a single, arbitrary character is not a part of that formula. It has a core formula, but that formula revolves around the weapon triangle, a general support system (which has now appeared in four different formats), a diverse selection of classes, etc. Other games, which had no such limitations, more freely experimented with sexuality in their supports (although not always explicitly).įire Emblem is a fluid series. That’s the only reason this particular iteration reduced supports to “do silly thing tangentially related to character interests, fool around, put a ring on it”. The mechanic to produce the children characters was important to Awakening, the implementation was to make most male-female supports canonically end in marriage. Frankly, I refuse to believe that forced-plot-relevant self-inserts are the future of the series. It’s a tactical war game that included character customization in two games out of thirteen. I get what you’re coming from, I really do. I don’t expect or need this feature at all but I do think it could be a really fun addition to the game. I think it would be a lot of fun to edit around the My units look with cloths. It could be as simple as a color choice or just picking little flourishes like earrings. Outfit: It would be cool if you could deck out your outfits a bit. They can do this with Mii’s I don’t see how they can’t do this with Fire Emblem. I don’t expect them to design to many more hair styles so instead why not just remove gender from them, I doubt loading a “females” hair on a males head would cause the game to explode. Men had no long styles and women had very few short styles. ![]() Non Gendered Hair Styles: One of my least favorite things about awakenings character customization is is lack of variety for hair. I do think it would be interesting to see how the world is touched by the characters sexuality though so it could be a fun thing to do. I don’t think we need a sexuality selection as long as a few choices of the same sex are locked in for the player. It would also allow the avatar to change up some dialogue when moving to dating/marriage options. It would stop some characters from being attracted to the main character and attract others. Sexuality: If personality selection is a thing i would love to see sexuality branch out of it. I could chose to wait out my foes despite being hot headed because i’m leading an army it’s not about me. So If I’m hot headed and I chose to run into battle then I’m just doing things the people around me expect. I wouldn’t want personality to really effect the choices in the game but instead just give flavor to what you pick. It could come via the form of a survey or just selecting Bold, hot headed, calm, or what ever the choices are. Having a personality choice could be fun and it could allow the writing to come out stronger given the likely case with this game is the lord is the my unit. ![]() ![]() I never found a problem with the way she was characterized but I would love if they took it a step forward. Personality: A common complaint I heard about Robin was her lack of personality. Not everyone is white and giving people the choice is great. I do think this is a very important feature for all games that give a character you impose your self on. I will understand if this feature isn’t in because of the family of the my unit but I’ll be let down. I would love it if I could pick the skin color of my unit, it allows people to further see themselves in a character. His dad is brown, we don’t know what his mom looked like but it would just make more sense if we had to have a default skin tone. Then after getting to one of the games plot twists what stood out to me was why the hell isn’t Robin brown. Skin Tone: One of the things that stood out to me about Fire Emblem Awakening is that actually used a few people of color in positions of power.
