I still can't stand the new voice they got for Xander, it's so bad compared to the original, they sound nothing alike.

The original Xander was this tough serious prince but for some reason they keep giving him this soft spoken, almost effeminate tone for some reason. They did it in Fire Emblem Heroes too with the Spring Skin.

I'm hoping for dual audio but it's super doubtful at this point. Nintendo still needs to work a little harder on their dubs because the dub for echoes was okay at best. I still really look forward to this entry in the warriors franchise and I will be getting a switch for this and future nintendo titles down the line.

Feeling conflicted about Team Ninja working on this, while it is a nintendo game so lack of risque content I just hope there isn't an egregious amount of DLC costumes. I hope they do expand the mechanics to the KT formula and give more fire emblem elements rather than fire emblem skin-over.

Look to hyrule warriors to see how this will go, they'll likely follow a similar formula that they used there.

This is the game that will make me buy a Switch. I have a 3DS, but I think this game needs to go on my TV and not a tiny screen like the 3DS. Oh boy, I can't wait!

While the chance of dual audio occurring initially are realistically low, I wouldn't say all hope is lost. Constant pressure from fan feedback eventually got Nintendo to produce an update to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild that featured a multi-language option.

You make it sound like Xander was Saizo or something.

Hmm, I was hoping they showed other characters from different classes like mages, lancers, or archers because just seeing sword-wielders made it look a lot duller than Hyrule Warriors characters' premiere.

Yeah it could be worse, he could voiced by the guy who did Setsuna (who went out of his way to not care). Or have a voice like (10 pack a day) Hinoka. Or my favorite case of bad voice acting in FE comes Echoes with Desaix (Who never changes his inflection ever). That being said Echoes still has good voices for characters like Alm and Berkut.

I'm hoping they put Hector and Ephraim in the game to add some variety to the mix

Unfortunately the developers said that they would only include characters from Shadow dragon, mystery of the emblem, awakening, and fates. So it probably means no Ike, Hector, Ephiram, ect. The moment that was announced I lost interest so I probably wont buy this one. Even if they managed to add them as DLC (I have my doubts) because the characters would be ridiculously over priced. Strangely I thought they launched the fire emblem heroes app in order to promote old characters that would arrive in warriors but that is not the case either.

They wouldn't need to launch that for the purpose when they simply put them in at their leisure as they likely will in this case or save them for a potential sequel.
