Three Houses definitely deserved someone, but a silent sword-using protagonist is the worst possible choice. Oh well.
I'm incredibly disappointed with Smash 5's roster expansions especially after 4's were great. Fortunately the roster is already so good it doesn't matter too much. --- The RPG Duelling League: www.rpgdl.com An unparalleled source for RPG information and discussion ... Copied to Clipboard!

On the one hand, Im genuinely excited that my 2019 GOTY is getting a rep. I look forward to it. Maybe Ill even try to main Byleth.
On the other hand, my heart goes out to everyone who was hoping their favorite franchise would make it in but instead its yet another Fire Emblem character. That sucks for you, and I mean that with sympathy. And on a third hand, goddammit, it should have been Edelgard. Sadly, Japanese players effing LOVE Byleth. --- Hi! I'm Quinton.

Said it in the other topic, but they started working on the character before release, so they probably didn't even consider anyone other than the lead as an options. But yes, as a 3H stan with almost 200 hours...this is a huge letdown. Nobody gives a shit about Byleth by themselves. Even people who do only do so for, like....shipping with Edlegard or someone. ...

They're putting in a main character from one of their biggest new releases. A lot of popular characters have sword. Our old beloved most popular characters here was 4/9 sword users. Such it is.

And on a third hand, goddammit, it should have been Edelgard. Sadly, Japanese players effing LOVE Byleth. Every poll I've seen out of Japan had Dimitri winning it, not Byleth. In the west it's hard to say but I bet Edelgard is the most popular. I get why Byleth was chosen, only character you get regardless of route, etc., but I can't not be disappointed here; Edelgard and Dimitri are two of my favourite characters period and Claude's great too and I figured there was a decent chance we'd get one of them, so Byleth just deconfirmed all three. Like, I guess there's a chance that 3H gets multiple characters in (Awakening somehow has three) but people are already salty with the amount of representation FE gets so I doubt it. --- The RPG Duelling League: www.rpgdl.com An unparalleled source for RPG information and discussion ...

They don't listen "Another sword guy" is a common complaint. "another fire emblem guy" is also a thing.

I will say it's less that it's another FE character (I actually like using the FE characters in Smash a lot), but just the fact it wasn't anything third party.
I would have been happy with almost anything even if I didn't like what series it came from. Have the Fighter's Pass be all third party characters for hype, and put Byleth in the second pass to round things out. That would have been fine. Imagine seeing nearly every single gaming company nearly outright begging to include their characters and they go and choose another Fire Emblem protagonist. Nintendo is mad. --- Okay, I rolled a 14.

I don't mind that they chose a 3 Houses character, but the fact that they made what seems like by far the most uninteresting choice of the main characters in that game killed any potential hype for me.
I could have even been brought back on board if Byleth looked fun to play (a similar situation to Corrin in Smash 4 outside of no one knowing Corrin was lame in FE: Fates since the game hadn't come out - or at least not in the west), but a slow character with a moveset that looks mostly bad isn't doing anything for me either. ...
