I need a crossover where Alm and Celica are disappointed that Walhart is their descendant because he gets everything so wrong about them and their beliefs.

Localizers' Dance in Purgatory

Happy anniversary. We're doing this again.

FE15's localization has been a hot button topic on twitter for the past couple of days, which made me want to examine some more localization changes - and what better for me to use for this experiment than my other favorite scenes in the game? Having noticed that the anniversary of when I posted about that scene with Alm and Mycen was coming up, I figured the timing was just too good to pass up.

We'll be going over Alm and Berkut's encounter up until the battle officially starts, Berkut's battle dialogue, and the scene after with Rinea's spirit. So rather than having one big moment that changes the tone of the scene like last time, this one has a few of these changes along with MANY smaller expansions on dialogue that just make it too much of a pain to go through one by one. Some of these are more contentious than others!

Luckily I have a solution for this: Pour everything into a spreadsheet and throw in commentary as I see fit.

I had to write out a lot of things by hand even if I was able to copy the scripts from elsewhere so I'm so sorry for any typos 🙏 Enjoy!

#the jp script here makes it “clearer” that Berkut is hearing what he wished to hear #also I find it interesting how upon his defeat he doesn't really force Alm to end him like he does in English #otherwise I think the tone of what was said in the eng script was kept from the jp #tho I believe Alm's grief and desperation was a smidge stronger in eng #fire emblem #fire emblem echoes #fire emblem echoes shadows of valentia #alm fire emblem #berkut fire emblem #other people's writing

FE Engage redesign series: Alear ❤️🩵

Design notes:

I was the most nervous about redesigning these two..Alear's official design definitely grew on me and ended up being one of my favs in game! But I still think the color combo of reds and blues is quite harsh.. so I tried toning it down with less of those as accent colors

I referenced Lumera's dragon form and gave them a bit of armor made from her scales. I really like the idea of Lumera sacrificing parts of her physical body to protect her child 🩵

For the hair I made it so just the underlayer (or inside) of their hair is red. Together with the inside of the cape, it show how they're precieved as a devine dragon on the outside, but have fell dragon blood inside.

Oh! Also, I took inspiration for their silhouette from both Marth and Corrin; especially in the sleeves (Corrin) and tunic (Marth)

#as someone who played around with Alear's designs I like how you kept the core of the design with minimal but still significant changes #really the biggest problem for me is the outfit patterns being visually noisy as well the hues of red & bkue that were used #op you did an amazing job! #fire emblem #fire emblem engage #alear fire emblem #other people's art

[katofvalentia]

The way the two Valentian couples' designs match together makes me feel a certain kind of joy.

OH HELL NAH

Not the "localization purists" from the Unicorn Overload s***show finding out about that "retranslated" Fire Emblem Echoes mod and praising it while saying Echoes' localization was abysmal

You literally cannot make this up

Of all Fire Emblem games-

You pick ECHOES to dog on for localization

Idk man I would not like to live in a reality where Lukas does not have some of the most fire quotes known to man simply bcuz someone wants a 1:1 translation without any care for all awkward sentences and dry character voices that brings in a narrative.

#I am being VERY PETTY rn but Idc in the slightest #those kinds of people DESERVE to get shoved in a locker #this post is just about Echoes btw I am well aware FE has a looooong history of such discourse #anyhow I am rambling #in this house we love 8-4 #fire emblem #fire emblem echoes #fire emblem echoes shadows of valentia #kattalksfe

Next FE Lord needs to be a 58 year old Women missing an eye and using a gaint fucking axe while the point of the game is to protect your Dragon race son, Your beast race daughter, and stop the prophecy of mans fall because man is a bunch of pricks against dragons.

Yes both kids are adopted, no you can't marry anyone under 40 and you get the Grand-Squad to take down the evil twins that are running the kill your kids plot

I actually like Camilla as a character, and don't hate her design. I don't think big booba should detract from a character when it's not her entire personality. Obviously, she COULD have more depth, but as a Fates character I think she's pretty great

.

#the only tweak Camilla needed that would have changed people's perception of her was- make her dote on ALL of her siblings #it doesn't have to be even but don't make her doting solely focused on Corrin #having her show her love through obsessive doting and violence speaks volumes of her upgringing #not to mention the “playing house” that looms over the Nohrian siblings until it crashes down if Corrin choses Hoshido or neither #which is so evident through each of them in their own way #it bothers me so much how Camilla did not go feral the minute Elise's life was on the line in ch 12 of CQ #camilla fire emblem #fire emblem #fire emblem fates #kattalksfe
