Nothing. Fire Emblem is better than VC is the gameplay department. It also has better character development and better writing. Just because a game is traditional doesn't mean that original tradition wasn't vastly better than the new experimental genre anomalies.

VC is a great game though. Just not up to the epic level of PoR or RD.

No, I disagree. Fire Emblem needs to evolve the gameplay in some way. Give yourself a bit more of control of the characters actions. Make it a bit more interactive.

It needs to diffrienate itself from all the other SRPGs.

Why? If I remember correctly, Fire Emblem pretty much "created" the SRPG genre. Final Fantasy Tactics came way after, and Jeanne D'Arc, etc.

It did. But the series has to make some evolution at a point. It was the first along with Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest for the JRPG genre. Mario for the platformers.

While those games are legendary, they still evovled the gameplay. Fire Emblem has not.

There has been very noticable improvments in gameplay over the series. The games solid its hardly ever needed any major changes.

I agree with someof the above posts. Just a bit more controls over your characters during battles sequences and better presentation is in the end what Id want.

I know they are solid. I own and enjoy the 3 of the 4 Fire Emblem games released in America. I didn't get Radiant Dawn and I will get Shadow Dragon when it releases.
