Let's dive on in. So, the first thing Let's dive on in. So, the first thing Let's dive on in. So, the first thing the Fortune's Weave needs is more the Fortune's Weave needs is more the Fortune's Weave needs is more in-depth combat. So, Three Houses had in-depth combat. So, Three Houses had in-depth combat. So, Three Houses had some solid mechanics. You had some solid mechanics. You had some solid mechanics. You had battalions, combat arts, and tons of battalions, combat arts, and tons of battalions, combat arts, and tons of different ways to build your units, but different ways to build your units, but different ways to build your units, but when you actually got on the when you actually got on the when you actually got on the battlefield, it just didn't feel as battlefield, it just didn't feel as battlefield, it just didn't feel as strategically complex as Fire Emblem strategically complex as Fire Emblem strategically complex as Fire Emblem Engage did. Engage nailed the tactical Engage did. Engage nailed the tactical Engage did. Engage nailed the tactical depth. The weapon triangle made every depth. The weapon triangle made every depth. The weapon triangle made every move matter. You could break enemy units move matter. You could break enemy units move matter. You could break enemy units and they could do the same thing back to and they could do the same thing back to and they could do the same thing back to you. You could chain attack and smash, you. You could chain attack and smash, you. You could chain attack and smash, and also each class type and unit style and also each class type and unit style and also each class type and unit style really mattered. Movement around the really mattered. Movement around the really mattered. Movement around the battlefield felt genuinely tactical, and battlefield felt genuinely tactical, and battlefield felt genuinely tactical, and that's the energy Fortune's Weave really that's the energy Fortune's Weave really that's the energy Fortune's Weave really needs to capture in the combat. Now, needs to capture in the combat. Now, needs to capture in the combat. Now, obviously, Fortune's Weave can't have obviously, Fortune's Weave can't have obviously, Fortune's Weave can't have gameplay elements like the Emblem Rings gameplay elements like the Emblem Rings gameplay elements like the Emblem Rings because those were like baked into the because those were like baked into the because those were like baked into the whole identity of Engage, but there's

whole identity of Engage, but there's whole identity of Engage, but there's something hidden in the last trailer we something hidden in the last trailer we something hidden in the last trailer we haven't fully figured out yet. And haven't fully figured out yet. And haven't fully figured out yet. And whatever this mechanic is, I'm hoping whatever this mechanic is, I'm hoping whatever this mechanic is, I'm hoping it's a secret sauce that adds real it's a secret sauce that adds real it's a secret sauce that adds real complexity and layers to the combat, complexity and layers to the combat, complexity and layers to the combat, because that's what's going to make because that's what's going to make because that's what's going to make Fortune's Weave feel fresh compared to Fortune's Weave feel fresh compared to Fortune's Weave feel fresh compared to what came before it. I just really hope what came before it. I just really hope what came before it. I just really hope that this game adds a lot more depth, that this game adds a lot more depth, that this game adds a lot more depth, complexity, and some extra layers of the complexity, and some extra layers of the complexity, and some extra layers of the combat of your typical Fire Emblem game combat of your typical Fire Emblem game combat of your typical Fire Emblem game to build off of what Engage already to build off of what Engage already to build off of what Engage already brought to the table. So, number two, brought to the table. So, number two, brought to the table. So, number two, the next thing I want Fortune's Weave to the next thing I want Fortune's Weave to the next thing I want Fortune's Weave to really do is expand the world. So, we really do is expand the world. So, we really do is expand the world. So, we know this game is going to sort of have know this game is going to sort of have know this game is going to sort of have a hub area from what looks like this a hub area from what looks like this a hub area from what looks like this area in the game. So, the trailer shows area in the game. So, the trailer shows area in the game. So, the trailer shows off what looks to be like this port town off what looks to be like this port town off what looks to be like this port town where Kyn and his friends arrive by where Kyn and his friends arrive by where Kyn and his friends arrive by ship. But, here's what I really want to ship. But, here's what I really want to ship. But, here's what I really want to see. I want this game to really lean see. I want this game to really lean see. I want this game to really lean into travel, and I want them to go into travel, and I want them to go into travel, and I want them to go beyond just this port town that we see beyond just this port town that we see beyond just this port town that we see in this first trailer. Three Houses had in this first trailer. Three Houses had in this first trailer. Three Houses had the monastery, and Engage had the the monastery, and Engage had the the monastery, and Engage had the Somniel, and those are great, but Somniel, and those are great, but Somniel, and those are great, but they're obviously static. But, what if they're obviously static. But, what if they're obviously static. But, what if Fortune's Weave took inspiration from Fortune's Weave took inspiration from Fortune's Weave took inspiration from Metaphor: ReFantazio's hub areas Metaphor: ReFantazio's hub areas Metaphor: ReFantazio's hub areas instead? Hear me out. So, in Metaphor, instead? Hear me out. So, in Metaphor, instead? Hear me out. So, in Metaphor, you visit all these distinct towns: you visit all these distinct towns: you visit all these distinct towns: Grand Trad, Marth's era, Briar Haven, Grand Trad, Marth's era, Briar Haven, Grand Trad, Marth's era, Briar Haven, Verga Island, the Aldebaran Heights. And Verga Island, the Aldebaran Heights. And Verga Island, the Aldebaran Heights. And each one of these places you go has its each one of these places you go has its each one of these places you go has its own culture, environment, music, and own culture, environment, music, and own culture, environment, music, and just different vibes altogether. But,

just different vibes altogether. But, just different vibes altogether.

But, what motivation, things like that. But, what motivation, things like that. But, what if sometimes, because of where the story if sometimes, because of where the story if sometimes, because of where the story would take you in Fortune's Weave, your would take you in Fortune's Weave, your would take you in Fortune's Weave, your base of operations would shift, and you base of operations would shift, and you base of operations would shift, and you travel to a new town, a new city, and travel to a new town, a new city, and travel to a new town, a new city, and suddenly you're doing all these same suddenly you're doing all these same suddenly you're doing all these same activities, but in a completely activities, but in a completely activities, but in a completely different setting. Sort of like how the different setting. Sort of like how the different setting. Sort of like how the story requires you to travel to new story requires you to travel to new story requires you to travel to new locations like in Metaphor. You're still locations like in Metaphor. You're still locations like in Metaphor. You're still grinding supports and buying gear, but grinding supports and buying gear, but grinding supports and buying gear, but the world around you is actually the world around you is actually the world around you is actually changing. That could lead to way more changing. That could lead to way more changing. That could lead to way more world-building and a nice change of world-building and a nice change of world-building and a nice change of scenery throughout the experience.
