Uh, why's everyone assuming NPCs will be altered? And who's forcing whom to play Story Mode? O_O Mainly because the lack of battles we have with Ren and Tclactga in the original game in Untold. We aren't being forced... However, the game had content exclusively unlocked if you play Story Mode. That...

well, as it looks you have the midgard library again, so, i wouldn't be surprised if they aren't at least referred to. And I'm going to laugh if they ever make it that the Echoing Library is what became of the midgard library. because.... anachronism much, going by what we learned from the ingame b...

Oh, 'twasn't tumblr. And thanks. You're welcome. I'd say that the background info on the EO world is canon. But the story mode characters can easily be replaced by others. Sort of like the old password from EO1 used in EO2 . People have heard of a guild saving Etria, but their details don't matter....

You and probs some of the NPCs we've grown to love. Because ohhhh boy, they will so mess up the NPCs in 4 to fit with the newfangled flashy new story mode characters. Same goes for 3, because, bet your butt, they won't spare them from being turned into cliché villains to fit the heroic heroes bette...

Tumblr does have some pretty radical viewpoints.

And I would have enjoyed this version of EOU much better.

Nice pants!

I only hope for an EO3U because I wanted to import my game data into EO4 but never had the chance. Of they can do it so we can say we went to Armoroad as well, it would be great. EO3 is my personal favorite to be honest.

Interesting. My gripe is that the art style doesn't look as great as I had hoped.

So, have people figured out the story mode character classes? I'm guessing we have a protector, survivalist, and... war mage? hexer? Not sure how much healing support princess will give. The translations say Chloe is a War Magus. Arianna is the Princess. Bertrand is the Protector. Flavio is the Sur...

Speaking of Bertrand, apparently someone says they've spotted a crest on his armor in cutscenes that's also on Raquna's, or something? And now the theory's going around that Bertrand might be related to Raquna so we might still have a Canadian Protector again. That is interesting. Sadly the only th...

In the original Etrian Odyssey's story, we were indeed the invaders. The forest folk had to go 'cause they were in our way of exploring the labyrinth - that was it. That, along with suggestions towards the end of the story that Etria literally survives entirely on its adventurer trade and t...
