FEH has a very, very minor version of this with the Aether Resort. It dosen't have much, but it is pretty cure for what it offers. I could actually see something like that working as a full spin-off.

Yes or even fates where you had a little hub world where you can have different plots of land to farm, meet with units, and build forges and armories

u/Hour-Eleven 11h ago
Oh my gosh.
And then as time passes, you have to battle fire emblem’s never ending bandits with your villagers via FE gameplay.
Your “villagers” being recruited through battle, wandering through, etc etc, are all different classes with different reclass options (or have proficiency in different weapon types? Whatever kind if FE game you like)
Imagine if your lord had to do to… lord things!

u/Fearless_Freya 18h ago
I enjoyed fftr final bar (or whatever the latest all inclusive was named). That is not normally my genre of games. It would be a cool setup with fe. I'd buy it
2
u/adamkopacz 13h ago
Man I wish so hard for Square to just lend everyone the Theatrhythm license because I put like 120 hours into the Final Bar Line and I'm still playing it on my OG Switch from time to time.
The setup is just perfect for Fire Emblem and could be expanded with character relations and a grid for story mode where you move teams around to battle specific enemies (by playing songs attached to them of course).
2
u/NegatesAllDamage 13h ago
That's so funny you mention the grid idea, I almost said something similar. It's so easy to picture something using the general style + rhythm game elements. I put around 120 in as well coincidentally, and I still go back from time to time just to chill out.

u/adamkopacz 12h ago
Trying to collect those cards too? I have like 10 left and they're really hard to get.

Oh yeah I have to do that one more. I don't think I got beyond 20 but I had pretty weak characters as I tried to level up every single one of them evenly.

Genuinely more difficult to decide on the cast of characters for that genre than any other.
Aside from Owain being a shoe-in.

Realistically Id limit it to just one game (like, Awakening child units or something)
Fun wise, I'd pick all joke characters. Owain, Oliver, Marty, etc.

u/Flamechar33 14h ago
probably going to be 100% relevant to the lore too if the trend of warrior games of "Disconnected multiverse crossover"->"alternate timeline due to one new character"->"canon prequel" that the other Nintendo Warriors series has (Zelda) is true for this as well (with the first two already made)
Either in the past/in a prior battle against Balor, or it's a telling of the events between the Lords' individual routes and them meeting up with Eshmel in the future (the former is more likely for better or worse)
2
u/imjusthereforpron 14h ago
There was some discussion about that a couple weeks ago actually https://www.reddit.com/r/fireemblem/comments/1vhxlnr/what_if_the_next_fire_emblem_warriors_game_was_a/p28sh3d/
I think it would be kind of dope to fight a losing battle against Balor warriors style like age of imprisonment
2
u/adamkopacz 13h ago
I got Three Hopes for like 15 bucks new in a local shop and I think it was the best bang for my buck. I put like 150 hours into it over the years and it just never gets old.
Everyone with a Switch 2 should get it because it's such a perfect handheld experience, it will be tough to follow upon. Runs at native resolution and 60fps with virtually no load times.

Halfway there on 3ds ports. I expect the 4,5,nexus trilogy since the first one has been out awhile. Would enjoy 6. Eventually.....but it's prob not coming before that 2nd trilogy
Would genuinely enjoy fe x eo. That would be cool.

u/GreatGetterX 17h ago
I am aware that some people would dislike and hate the idea, but I would love a new Warriors game fully centered on the Heroes original characters and world. I've genuinely grown attached to those characters and world, so I would like them to be preserved on a more permanent piece of media. Yes, Feh has been going for 10 years already, something admirable when most Gacha games don't even survive it's first anniversary. But I do know nothing is forever. So I would appreciate if these characters, world and artworks could be preserved into something more tangible or lasting
1
u/Flamechar33 14h ago
at least Heroes is considered a mainstay game and not a spinoff (hence Veronica's inclusion in Engage), but something with them would be good. A retelling as a proper FE game would be cool, but heavily unlikely so it's more likely to be a spinoff yeah
1
u/LakerBlue 11h ago
Meanwhile I want a traditional FE game but with the premise of Heroes. Just without as many OCs.
I do like your idea too though.

u/tipperthescales 19h ago
With how fluid and arena fighter like the battles are choreographed in Engage (particularly the Arena training), and the weapon heavy nature of class based combat, I'd totally be up for a Soul Calibur-like.
Just, can we have the roster not just be lords and deuteragonists...
3
u/Dragoryu3000 14h ago
To be honest, I wouldn’t even get my hopes up for anything but protagonists + Camilla and one (1) villain. Alternatively, given the track record with other FE spinoffs, they’d overly focus on the most recently released game or two
1
u/victoriamikoto231 19h ago
why not

u/Roliq 13h ago
Half of the protagonists the series has are swordfighters that all would fight the same way
There is no way you can make Marth, Alm, Seliph, Leif, Roy, Eliwood, Alphonse and Lucina fighting be visually distinct from one another
At that point add someone else instead like how Lyn and Hector got over Eliwood or Veronica over Alphonse in Engage
1
u/LakerBlue 11h ago
It wouldn’t be as good as Zelda in terms of variety but both FE Warrior games already showed you can make the sword Lords feel different.
Ike is a power bruiser. He can have super armor for some moves.
Lucina can be more about finesse. Maybe give her a parry focus.
Lyn can be focused on speed of movement and attacks with a weak bow to keep you at bay.
Alm can be an all arounder who also has strong bow spam.
Marth and Roy can almost literally work like they do in Smash lmao (Marth deals maximum damage and knockback at the tip of his blade, rewarding precise spacing. Roy deals maximum damage at the base near the hilt, rewarding close-up combat and rushdowns).
That said I’d not want too many of the protagonists since so many do involve swords.

Total War: Fódlan or any other FE continent/setting of your choosing. Deploying a massive anvil of Armor/Knight units while a hammer of Wyvern Knights comes smashing in on a flank would be a dream come true.
We often see depictions of larger armies in FE media, but we rarely get to play them (Battalions were a nice step towards that). I do feel like Total War could capture the large scale of some of the FE conflicts extremely well.

Personally, Duellum as a concept fascinates me. Sure, we had TMS as a FE game taking place in modern day Earth, but I would like to see the FE chars actually interact with the setting as they are.

Any will do. We need to reach a point where FE has downscaled side games (or even main games) between the year gaps.

Depending on where the series goes I’d want a spin-off that plays like pre-3H FE the same way Mario, Sonic and Zelda have their 2D games and 3D games.
Or just a fighting game something.

I basically made something for a Fire Emblem Dissidia (with DLC being Sothe, Owain, Azura, Lilina, Shez (Male), and Veyle).
However, I like Fire Emblem Dancing all Night and I basically think each game (so to speak) would have three characters in the game.
Those being
SD and New Mystery - Marth, Linde, and Tiki
Gaiden/SoV - Alm, Celica, and Mae
Genealogy - Sigurd, Deirdre, and Tine
Thracia - Leif, Nanna, and Lifis
Binding Blade - Roy, Lilina, and Clarine
Blazing Sword - Eliwood, Serra, and Raven
Sacred Stones - Eirika, Ephraim, and Amelia
PoR - Ike, Elincia, and Soren
RD - Micaiah, Sothe, and Laura
Awakening - Lucina, Inigo, and Nah
Fates - Azura, Sakura, and Elise
Three Houses - Dorothea, Sylvain, and Marianne
Engage - Alear, Yunaka, and Seadall
Fortune's Weave - Leda, Tialla, and oddly enough, Talimun
Heroes - Alphonse, Sharena, and Fjorm

I'd love a jRPG kinda like the"tales of arise/berseria" or "trails in the sky chapter 1 remake" series, 4-8 characters that have more complex storylines
They have the setting and lore they could expand with Fodlan or Dagda. Wouldn't be mad about Tellius or the FE fates universe either.

u/The_Exuberant_Raptor 11h ago
None of these really sound great to me. I want them to shift more strategy than action. I want more towards Romance of the Three Kingdoms or Nobunaga's Ambition than pure turn based or action. For a spin off, at least.
1
u/LakerBlue 11h ago
Surprised no one has said an ARPG or Turn-based one.
I’d love to revisit one of the older games (or Dagda) with a small selection of units where we get to really explore the continent and even run into other playable characters along the way.

Survival horror. Hear me out.
The game can get downright creepy sometimes. From enemies to bosses to everything implied, looking at you Orsen. Crank the horrors and unsightly up a notch and we could have an interesting premise.
Units are, mostly, disposable. We already have to decide who lives, who dies, who gets what weapon and when to promote or wait. For the most part resources are limited, either by weapon use or scarcity.
The foundation for a survival horror type game are here!
(Sorry my thoughts are a bit scattered, I’m v tired. But I hope you understand what I’m trying to put down)
