How do they achieve character diversity by having every character be from two games instead of at least 5? And why do y'all keep ignoring the fact that Hector, Ephraim and Micaiah aren't sword lords?
And as I've said before, I don't even particularly like those characters (except for Micaiah). If it was up to me, Warriors would be the Tellius + Valentia + Jugdral show, but I can think beyond myself and realize that it'd be best to have a mainly Awakening+Fates cast + some popular lords from other games.
So why can't I get to see Chrom and Ephraim bonding over their similarities, or Celica and Micaiah arguing about their differing views on how to protect their countries, instead of yet another Corrin/Xander support?
They're not doing a very good job of avoiding it considering Marth, Lucina, Chrom, Corrin, Xander, Ryoma, Lemon #1 and Lemon #2 are all lords.
