BrandonHOST
The original Fire Emblem I think does it perfectly.
BrandonHOST
Uh, un- sorry, I shouldn't say the original.
BrandonHOST
The Game Boy Advance Fire Emblem 7, the first one that came to the United States.
BrandonHOST
Fire Emblem 7, that game you do your map by map.
BrandonHOST
Um, if you talk to certain characters, you can recruit them.
BrandonHOST
If you have certain characters in the map, uh, they can have a special relationship with that character through recruiting.
Kirk HamiltonHOST
I'm looking.
Kirk HamiltonHOST
So Suikoden III came out in 2002, which is kind of right when Fire Emblem was kicking off on the Game Boy Advance.
Kirk HamiltonHOST
This is, they're very, like, Winding Blade 2002, Blazing Blade 2003, same era JRPG as well.
Kirk HamiltonHOST
So that's very cool that, I, I definitely thought of Suikoden II while playing this game, just the scope of the cast and the kind of overwhelming scale of it.
Maddy MyersHOST
Recruiting everyone, the pressure to recruit everyone.
DavidHOST
Yeah.
ChaseHOST
So Fire Emblem Fortunes Weave is the newest Fire Emblem game in a long series, long series of Fire Emblem games of which I have been playing for a long time, mostly since Fire Emblem came stateside, which I think was Sacred Stones or Blazing Blade.
ChaseHOST
It was just called Fire Emblem in America for a while.
ChaseHOST
But one of those GBA ones, whichever one came first, I grabbed.
RyanHOST
That is not far from accurate.
JamesHOST
All right, well, so I wanted to, in honor of the release of this game, with Fire Emblem being at least one of my personal favorite Nintendo franchises, maybe game franchises, period, rather than maybe do a discussion about Three Houses or Fortune's Weave, I thought we could lean a little bit more into our personal wheelhouse with Fire Emblem.
JamesHOST
a tactician quiz focused around Fire Emblem 7.
JamesHOST
Ryan, you're pretty familiar with Fire Emblem The Blazing Blade, right?
RyanHOST
It's been a while.
JamesHOST
We will be covering the entirety of the game today.
JamesHOST
Excellent.
JamesHOST
33% quiz score.
Brendon BigleyHOST
Right
Stephen HilgerHOST
... having gone backwards from Awakening when I played, uh, Blazing Blade, uh, the, or just Fire Emblem in the US for the first time.
Stephen HilgerHOST
I was like, "I have to do shopping, like, during war?"
Brendon BigleyHOST
Yeah.
Stephen HilgerHOST
I, I think, yeah.
Stephen HilgerHOST
It's like there's 30 angry guys on Reddit who want it to be, uh, that love-
Brendon BigleyHOST
Blazing Blade always, yeah
Stephen HilgerHOST
... love reminding you of echoes-
Stoy JovicHOST
I mean, that's a pretty niche series, so I can imagine at that time that wasn't necessarily...
Patrick KleinHOST
I was right it's called the Blazing Blade I had to think of it because the one before it was called the Binding Blade the Binding Blade that won't get confusing I get those
speaker_6UNKNOWN
confused all the time
Patrick KleinHOST
so we got the Blazing Blade which was the second one on the Game Boy Advance and that came out in November of 2003 for us Um, it was successful enough that in the following years, we then got the sacred stones, uh, which featured two protagonists.
Patrick KleinHOST
Uh, that was, um, the, the, the kind of like you got to choose who you wanted to choose.
Patrick KleinHOST
Um, one was considered a little easier than the other one.
Adam VitalePANELIST
That's it.
Brian VitaleHOST
I remember in the GBA games, like Blazing Sword and Sacred Stones, that there are certain characters that would not talk in the main story outside of the
Adam VitalePANELIST
mission you
Brian VitaleHOST
recruited them in.
JasonGUEST
that's what the older tactics games were.
JasonGUEST
That's what like Fire Emblem, Blazing Blade, Fire Emblem, Path of Radiance.
JasonGUEST
It's like fancy chess.
JasonGUEST
I mean, there is no customization.
Brent BamburyHOST
Patrick DeHaan is the head of petroleum analysis with the firm GasBuddy.
Brent BamburyHOST
Coming up on Day 6, a new Canadian novel considers art, fame, authorship, and AI.
Brent BamburyHOST
We meet the author of The Rayburn Affair.
Laurie PetrouGUEST
Who owns the author? Who owns the artist once the work is released into the world?
Richard RaycraftGUEST
So she's less like, I'm taking part in the combat directly, though she can do that.
Richard RaycraftGUEST
And it's more like, you guys want to watch my beautiful dance and then fight even better? We can do that.
Richard RaycraftGUEST
And I like... unique novel pass and as you can probably tell dancing to inspire people is a little bit different than some of the other characters we heard about there I didn't choose Kai because it said in his description that because he's so young he wouldn't have access to some of the areas of the game that made me feel like I was going to get shut out from them Dietrich, the sword wielder, he creeped me out a little bit.
Richard RaycraftGUEST
He talks in this deep voice and, you know, he's got this kind of creepy Dracula appearance.
Patrick EllersHOST
Yeah, I think it's pretty strong.
Patrick EllersHOST
Especially because the one that follows it is called Fire Emblem.
Patrick EllersHOST
The Blazing Blade, this is the one that we just know as Fire Emblem in the US, another GBA game.
Patrick EllersHOST
And Blazing Blade, even though the word blazing is, like, objectively more badass than binding, binding is more evocative to me.
Mark MitchellHOST
Especially, I think, for this, like, high fantasy sort of, like, world.
Mark MitchellHOST
Yeah.
Mark MitchellHOST
Blazing Blade, I just think, like, oh, somebody made a sword that's like a lightsaber.
Mark MitchellHOST
Yeah.
