FE Asset Repository Discussion Thread

I am opposed to this motion. The Great Knight is called the Great Knight. BwdYeti is one member of the greater Fire Emblem fangame community. Sure, he calls them cataphracts. But there’s far, far, far more people who call them their actual name in IntSys Fire Emblem. 99% of the community do not have FEXNA access, and renaming classes to match XNA naming schemes just comes off as arbitrary and confusing for the majority of the users. Why should we bend to Yeti’s standards? If consistency is so important, why shouldn’t he change to the standard names?
(Heck, I feel including XNA stuff in general is a waste of time and space, but that’s neither here nor there.)
Not to mention there’s no guarantee Yeti will even release any of his animations. He made them, and if he wants them private, private they will stay. You’d end up with a bunch of renamed classes for some strange sense of “consistency” for a thing that will never come out. Why even bother?
