So, you know how Fire Emblem: Awakening had two 'seasons' of DLC, with the crossover DLCs being Season 1 and the 'Scramble' and 'More Challenging' DLCs being Season 2?

I'm fairly certain that Fire Emblem Fates will have a Season 2 for DLCs as well. Are there any specific DLCs you would like to see? I personally want to see a DLC map where you get to play as Garon before Anankos turned him into "Gooron." Maybe that DLC map might even let us see what Ecatarina looks like.

Ototo power is strong here.

Meanwhile, I guess the Hoshido sisters are crying in a corner somewhere.

Incest and servants, cool.

Is Aqua incest? I can't remember how related to Kamui she is.

bulls-eye

The character results as a whole seem really boring aside from Oboro.

I was surprised Oboro got so high to be honest and a lot of people didn't expect Camilla or Elise to beat Ryoma.

Aqua being lower is kinda expected due to her role being mostly Exposition.

Plus Odin as much as I like the guy is not someone I expected to get in the top ten over the newcomers.

People finally recognizing the strength of Oboro's character. There's a reason why her character page on this site is as long as the royals.

Also,

-Like a Holy Mother, loved her at first glance (F/20s)
. Very interesting thoughts on Camilla.

I imagine in an NA poll Leon would be preferred to Takumi, Ryouma would not be in the top 10, Jakob would be lower, and Odin not on the list at all.

I doubt so, Odin does seem to be pretty popular, gameplay aside. Remind me, is Oboro the stoned-looking spear girl? I know nothing at all about her character.

She's Takumi's retainer.

I just realized that Takumi and Leo each had a retainer in the top ten.

[up][up]Well people generally praise Lazward as being the most developed out of the 3, Luna is next, and Odin is the one who changes the least. Of course, there are more factors than character growth, but I do have this prediction Lazward would be the most popular of the 3 in NA.

Has the hots for Takumi in a big way; likes fashion (her parents were tailors or something?); family killed in a Nohrian raid so she hates them on general principle (her personal skill gives her bonus damage against Nohr units), but manages to get past this in the IK route.

I forget who her potential Nohrian grooms are. I think one of them is Zero.

According to this thread, the official spelling of his name is Lazward (don't know where the person got that piece of merchandise, but it looks legit) yet the entire page is flip-floppy in using Lazwald or Lazward.

Some choice quotes (and my thoughts included in the quoteblocks in italics and parentheses, like this):

Q10 Who was your favorite character?

Takumi [493] (Definitely my second-favorite Hoshido royal, and fifth favorite royal overall)
-Like his look and personality (M/20s)
-Most influenced character pending on path (M/20s)
-Grows on you most from support conversations (F/40s)

Leon / Leo (475) (My favorite character, so I'm happy to see him so high up)
-Though says cold things, a good kid (F/20s)
-Liked the pre-release visuals (F/20s)
-Cute when acting tough (F/20)

Marx / Xander (396) (Second-favorite royal)
-Gave most emotional feelings as an older brother in the story (M/30s)
-Useful supports and powerful compared to others (M/Teens)
-Stronger than everyone with a great personality (M/30s)

Joker / Jakob (293) (My second-favorite of the Avatar retainers)
-Interesting personality and caps (F/20s)
-Strong user of both weapons and staff (F/20s)

Camilla (285) (I like her the least of the Nohr Royals, and she's my 7th favorite of the royals)
-Like a Holy Mother, loved her at first glance (F/20s)
-Sexy, best female character (M/30s)

Elise (246) (Fourth favorite royal and third-favorite Nohr royal)
-Useful healer (F/Teens)
-Cute and reliable. Fun supports. (F/20s)

Oboro (228) (Not one of my favorites, but I can see why she's high up)
-Love her voice (M/40s)
-Appearance and personality cute, love the sort of lance fighter look

Aqua / Azura (197) (Expected to see her in top 10)
-Happy for her to support the Avatar (F/20s)
-Her singing really helped me (M/30s)

Ryouma / Ryoma (195) (Third-favorite royal, and favorite Hoshido royal)
-If not for him I would’ve never won (F/40s)
-Surprisingly playful (M/Teens)

Odin (176) (My favorite retainer, and of my favorite class)
-Great caps (M/Teens)
-Awaking Wonder!!! (M/Teens)

Q11 Who did your Avatar marry?

Aqua / Azura (260) (Shock!)
-Supports you no matter the route, it’s fate (M/20s)
-Fit the story most, I think (M/Teens)

Joker / Jakob (231) (Expected him to place high in this poll)
-Liked his supports with the Avatar (M/30s)
-A total hottie! (F/20s)

Leon / Leo (180) (Also expected him to place high in this poll)
-A striking character (F/20s)
-We see his kind side in the supports (M/30s)

Marx / Xander (145) (Like Leo and Jacob, I expected him to place high in the marriage poll)
-I like older characters (F/20s)
-Displays different sides to him (F/30s)

Felicia (130) (I did in fact expect her to place high in this poll)
-Very clumsy, but a good girl who supported me all the way (F/20s)
-So cute (M/20s)

(The Marriage poll choices was pretty unsurprising. Didn't expect Odin to place 10th on the Favorite Characters poll though, even taking his Awakening popularity into account.)

Q12 What did you think of the marriage system?

1674 – It was fun making couples
-I liked seeing children with different hair colors (M/20s)
-I think coupling and supports are a charm of the series (M/20s)
1192 – It was fun thinking about who inherits what
-It was fun forging powerful units (M/30s)
-It’s a fun system in raising units as you like
940 – It was fun having parent and child fight alongside each other
– It was interesting hearing the parent and child exchanges in battle (M/30s)
691 – I preferred FE 4 (Genealogy of the Holy War)’s system
-So many charming units, some get wasted. Why bother with alternating generations?
-The appearance of children felt rather empty (M/20s)
520 – I like the support system but would be fine without kids
-I’m fine with the generation thing, but it takes a lot of time to raise them… (M/30s)
-I think it gave the game too many units (M/40s)
-I like the system as it is, so want it to be around from now on (M/30s)

(Happy that so many like the marriage system)

Q13 The scene that left an impression?

-The scene of jumping into the Infinite Chasm after Touma Chapter 6 (M/20s)
-Any scene Aqua sang in (F/30s)
-The final chapter of Hoshido, it was incredibly serious. Can’t be described in words (F/20s)
-When Aqua calms the rampant Avatar (F/20s)
-The scene where the cold Leon breaks down after acting like he hated the Avatar (M/20s)
-The route split in Chapter 6, made me wonder what to do (M/30s)
-Avatar and Takumi’s S support. I really want to thank my mother Mikoto! (F/20s) (L.O.L!)
-The final chapter of Nohr! <Spoilers so won’t mention it> (F/30s)

(Most of the scenes mentioned here I agree with)

Q17 Tell us various regrets/oddities you experienced…

-I didn’t use the boots all the way to the end (M/20s)
-Harold would miss with 90% accuracy and get critical’d when the enemy only had 1% chance of doing so (M/30s) (Classic Fire Emblem)
-I noticed Aqua became my main combat unit (M/30s)
-Healers made up my main force (M/Teens)
-My units wore funny accessories, so I laughed during serious scenes! (F/20s)
-I went to the hot springs when I had nothing else to do (M/20s)
-I noticed … the women had better strength and defense [than the men]… (M/30s) (Oh yeah! cool)
-I overlooked enemy archers with counter and lost plenty of allies (M/30s)

Q18 Hopes for future FE installments and messages to the dev team!

-Will there be a “fourth scenario” too…? (lol) (M/20s)
-The support system is fun, please keep it! (F/Teens)
-I hope that future installments have this level of quality! (M/20s)
-I hope for more DLC maps and characters (F/20s)
-Thank you for this wonderful game. I will play whatever new releases [you make] from now on (F/20s)
-I found the net battles interesting, I would be happy if they component reappears (F/20s)
-I hope they put effort into the stories for FE from now on! (M/20s)
-I had the impression it was a “difficult game,” but that changed. I intend to challenge myself and play the other games in the series (F/20s)
-Was very interesting. I think I’ll play the next one too! (F/Teens)

Seems like it will do a good job of being a gateway to the series, like Awakening.

The 'Holy Mother Camilla' thing made me laugh. I seriously did not expect to ever see a sentence like that. Still, nice to see Camilla making it into the top 10.

I'm also pleasantly surprised that several people liked the support and children characters. Still, who could hate someone like Lutz or Foleo?

[up]I can see a reason why people would dislike Foleo. The amount of times his support conversations are about clothes is pretty frequent. Of course, maybe I coincidentally chose to read all the supports of Foleo that were about clothes.

I can see a reason why. There is a chance that Foleo's support conversations are pretty much just about clothes. It could be like Miriel and her experiments which got grating.
