Talk:Emperor

I feel like this page is creating a false association between three classes that doesn't actually exist. In Japanese, these three classes don't have the same name, and, in English, only one of them has been localized. True, Emperor would be an accurate translation of Hardin's Koutei class and Alvis's Emperor class is a transliteration of emperor, but they still don't have official English names. The localizers might very well localize them as Dark Emperor and Fire Emperor respectively if they feel like it. What's more, the classes don't share the same gameplay functionality. Each of them uses different weapons with the only association being that they wear armour (like many other classes). These are instead the personal classes of the three characters respectively, and it seems we count personal classes as seperate from generic classes if they are sufficently distinct. For example, Alm's fighter class (infantry sword unit) has it's own page and is not associated with the generic fighter class (infantry axe unit), likewise Ike's ranger class (infantry sword unit) is not associated with the generic ranger class (mounted sword/bow unit). I suggest these three classes be split into Emperor (Mystery of the Emblem), Emperor (Genealogy of the Holy War) (or Emperor Jugdral if it's strange to include the unused Thracia info there) and Emperor (Three Houses) (or Fodlan, since we should have something about its Three Hopes appearance there).

For the sake of posterity, am I to understand it this suggestion was rejected on dicsord with a vote of 10:8? Jotari (talk) 09:50, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

Yes. — Thecornerman (talk) 14:02, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
