I agree with you. Make an official preview thread when they all come up.maybe we should wait a bit for it to come up officially, since other previews might come up at the same time?
Mmm... Suppose it's alright.I was going to wait till the preview embargo was officialy up to make a preview thread. Dunno if that's ok.
It could be Blue Lions too. GD is more laid back than boththey didn't mention it, but they said that their 2nd group of Students was more laid back than the first, so my guess is Black Eagles
I dont get it how it would change things muchGood grief ... that preview makes me wary of picking Black Eagles first. Maybe i should pick another House first and save Black Eagles for later to have the full experience....
FYI: Cutscenes is the choice of animation which is trending in Japan. like Echos.- Cutscenes seem to be encoded at 24fps, different from the rest of the game and that can lead to some judder
Hopefully hours...I'm thirsty lolSo do we think the preview was published 1 week early or 1 day or what?
Worth noting that the review alludes to a major flashpoint 10 hours in, of 45 total. Post timeskip is sounding like it'll be most of the game, easily.
I'm not sure that the flashpoint is necessarily the timeskip, could just be the first turn of events

The terms of Nintendo's embargo forbid me talking about the story beyond a major flashpoint around ten hours in, and I wouldn't want to spoil it anyway. What I will say is Three Houses has some great twists and turns.
The more recent trailers gave away that there's a time skip in this game, which is a shame as keeping that under wraps would've been amazing.
I am also thinking this way. Check out his quote again:
So he doesn't want to spoil what happens after ten hours, yet mentions the time skip in the very next sentence (because Nintendo already revealed that).

This. I figure the flashpoint will be whatever happens in the second month, and then the timeskip will be a couple months after, at most. That's still the huge majority.That doesn't rule out that this flashpoint is the event that leads to the time-skip. ^^
Because, we do know that there IS a time-skip. But we do NOT know what leads to it! :D
Maybe the event that Byleth got super saiyan?Dunno, a "major" event doesn't seem fitting for the school setting to continue like before, and i don't think that the devs have some altered gameplay/flow during the Academy time.

But then I find the phrasing to be weird. Why not just writing: "The terms of Nintendo's embargo forbid me talking about the story beyond the time skip around ten hours in [...]"That context suggests to me that the timeskip is exactly what the author is referring to, since they feel it's a shame Nintendo revealed it — and thus allowed it to be talked about.
16-24 hours sounds about right, I figure it will be around 1-2 hours per month, maybe a little more if you really take your time or less if you choose to skip through or are just fast.Not from leaks, but from Nintendo themselves: We know that the calendar is 12 months with one major battle each month and we know that you'll be at the academy for *at least* a year. You can do some math there.
Yeah thinking of doing something similiar, feel like I would get burned out by doing all 3 in one run. But that just means that the game has some great replay value, which is really nice :DThis game will consume me, I'm thinking of spreading each house playthrough throughout the year.
Black Eagles run and then take a break for Daemon x Machina
Golden Deer run and then take a break for Astral Chain
Blue Lions run and then take a break for Cold Steel III and Links Awakening

Same but waiting for wave 2 and wave 4 DLC to drop.This game will consume me, I'm thinking of spreading each house playthrough throughout the year.

Why would he at first be intentionally vague by using "a major flashpoint" just to outright tell us it's the time skip everyone already knows about?
Just my interpretation, and in the end we won't know what exactly happens anyways. :)
