I heard they're going for a more FE4-ish look... but eh, it seems like the battle sprites kinda clash with the backgrounds. |

Looks pretty bad, IMO. Nowhere near what the DS is capable of and it looks downright lazy. The units don't even react when they're hit. This class change option intrigues me, though. |

I don't recall loving the FE6 system overmuch. I tolerated it because of the limitations of the system and because the static sprites looked fairly good. However, I can't help but cringe whenever a fighter or warrior or anything with an axe attacks and plants the giant blade of steel in someone's skull without so much as a stagger. FE4 was arguably better and arguably worse. Many of the sprites looked quite frankly bad, but at least there was some variation in footwork and position. FE9-10 did not have bad graphics because of reaction to being hit. That was one of the few good things about it. It looked bad because FE9 looked bad because it looked like it could have been released at the GC's launch and FE10 looked bad because it looked like it could have been released -on the GC several years ago-. |

It's the FE tradition to have bad graphics, seriously. No FE game since 5 has ever come even close to par for the system it's on. (And seriously, there was nearly no improvement at all between FE6 and 8, which is totally inexcusable on every level) IMO, these graphics are fine. I'm kind of numb to it and mostly uncaring. |

Since the animations only take a few seconds anyway and the music, at least, is consistently of high quality, I leave them on. Except maybe in FE9/10 when they get longer and crappier. |

Eh, from what I played of the Japanese ROMs, the sprites honestly aren't that bad.

However, I will agree that FE9 and 10's graphics sucked. 9 IMO could've passed for an N64 game, and 10... *shudder* |

FE10 looked pretty okay, actually. At least there was variety in the battle anims, and map sprites didn't look like something the N64 coughed up. And there was nothing wrong with the GBA graphics...Except that they used them, with little/no changes, for three straight games. First gen GBA graphics for three games over the course of 3 years. That's. Not. Right. Especially since EVERY SINGLE CLASS acted the EXACT same way EVERY SINGLE GAME. |

Hey, the sprites didn't change much (though they were improved a little between FE6 and FE8) and the overworld graphics are terrible, but the portraits were still good-looking. And there was a lot of improvement in them between FE6 and FE7, though to me FE8's are too orangey. |

I mean the fact that the damn coronation was done using the poopy ingame graphics! They didn't even bother making a cutscene for it and it looked horrible. And even if some things look worse, that doesn't excuse them at all. Even the Wii can do graphics better then FE10 and it made me cringe inside. |

so uh fe10 mediocre graphics = genocide? ... But anyway, all I'm saying is, if you look at the game as a whole, the graphics are mediocre. Mediocre is not good, but it isn't THE WORST THING I'VE EVER SEEN A STEAMING LOAD OF CRAP. |

My point exactly, we shouldn't have to put up with mediocre graphics: they should be excellent. Not good, excellent. Games like Gears of War, Crysis and (for a better comparison to that piece of crap Wii) Super Mario Galaxy show us what we can have on our consoles these days, so why should I be okay with bad graphics on the grounds that it could be worse. But yes, I suppose it could be worse: the game could be entirely in binary after all. Developers like IS get away with lazy development graphically and whenever someone complains, we have to put up with this bull**** about graphics not being important and it not being that bad. Here's the one stop short bulletin folks: graphics do matter, as much today as they always have and that is exactly the same as every other factor in a game, including gameplay. Stop whining when someone calls a developer out on it. |

Graphics don't matter...for an SRPG. And that's all I'll say on that. If you expect GeoW level graphics out of FE, you're playing the wrong genre. SRPGs have, historically, had mediocre graphics. Possibly the only standout is SRW, and even then, that's mostly in the battle scenes. |

... that is, frankly, stupid reasoning. We shouldn't expect good graphics from an SRPG because it's always been that way? Bull****. They get away with sub-standard graphics because people put up with it. |

You're right, I should expect better than Gears from an SRPG. After all, Gears has to run in 60FPS, constant motion and reacting to players every action, with numerous enemies moving all at the same time. Turn based strategy games...not so much. |

SRW Map scenes are even more disgusting than FE Map screens. And you're looking at the map for 40+ hours. It better damn well look good, and it'd be a lot more memorable. Plus I can't take a single scene in an SRPG seriously because it has absolutely no atmosphere. |

Me: I'd love it if the graphics were better, but no amount of whining will change the fact that IS doesn't bother to use good graphics. |

Agreed with Kim and Sabre, really. There's nothing wrong with thinking that graphics that are bad and should be better in a game that really doesn't have an insane amount of work put into it. I mean, FE is not GeoW. Nor is it SMG. |

GeoW is a terrible acronym. Just call it Gears if you're worried about confusion. Frankly, I'll wait until IS starts beefing up the FE series' gameplay before I start complaining about graphics. It's like complaining that the paint is peeling... on the Titanic. |

Ogre Battle 64 will always remain my favorite SRPG (even though it's Real Time). Excellent gameplay, magnificent story (with numerous variations and endings), dramatic music, and...it looked good, whether it was on the map, in battle, or in a cut-scene. I probably should play it again sometime...[/hopeless fan]. |
