Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Fire Emblem Fates to have two versions in the West as well

Dark version for myself. I am okay with two entries, if it has enough content.

Does 2 versions mean to separate games? a bit ambiguous, but that is probably the case..

Depends on the price and the difference in content whether this is bad or not. At this moment I won't say I'm necesarilly opposed to it.

Probably not the best idea, Fire Emblem is not Pokemon



Ehh... this just seems like an easy way for Nintendo to pad their software library without actually making original content. Also discouraging that they choose to do this with a series that just found a bit of mainstream popularity. :/

They way they seem to have sold it so far it seems two different story paths that most likely lead to similar conclusion. I think it is unfair to compare it to Pokemon which is the same game in a nutshell. 

Light is for Awakening Fans

Dark seems to be designed for the old Fire Emblem fans, from how they were describing the two. 

From the Wiki: 

The Hoshido path will have a traversable map similar to Awakening, Sacred Stones, and Gaiden. The player can level up characters outside of the storyline chapters by paying a fee to initiate a Skirmish, similar to using a Reeking Box. Like Awakening, map victory conditions will mostly be either rout the enemy or defeat the boss.

The Nohr path will be more structured, having no external battles outside of the storyline chapters much like most previous Fire Emblem titles. Experience and funds are much more limited and more victory conditions will be present such as defending a base, breaking through the enemy lines, and turn restrictions for certain maps.

 

 



 

Nintendo Why???

Not supporting this if it's two separate games with different stories. This is actually worse than Pokemon if this is the case.

Quite annoying, but kind of expected after what they did in Japan

The real concern is that it doesn't seem to have been confirmed in Europe yet. Nintendo UK tweeted most of the announcements, but not Fire Emblem

Depends. From what I understand FEF has more in common with Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons/Ages, which means you get two full games. Unless I'm misinformed that would be many times better than Pokémon.
