>wants to create a meritocratic society where noble lineages or crests don't matter>doesn't fucking realize that nobles with crests will be ruling this new society since they are the only one that are educated enough to do this>genuinely gets suprised by the idea of introducing a free education to the poor, showing that she has no fucking clue of how to actually ruleI don't know why people even support Edelgard
>>729897994Well, yeah. This was always about taking down what has personally harmed her and her need for validation. She has competent underlings that can turn her stupid shit into something worthwhile but she herself is a dumbass.
we can worry about the specifics of improving society once we remove the evil magic cult running everything in the same way IRL humans had to nail down saving food for the winter before they could come up with a society besides "guy with biggest stick makes rules"
>>729899848Yeah, but this is a thing even if she gets rid of the magic society ruling everything.In the end, she's just CHURCH BAD BECAUSE... BAD!
>>729899848You’re absolutely right.>joins the evil magic cult running everything
>>729897994>I don't know why people even support Edelgardbecause it's a bad game. IS thought>wouldn't it be funny if we had a route where people joined the red colored empire taking everything over that's been in every fire emblem game since the NES?but because modern IS writing is typical dickless post-war japanese writing they can't actually make the intended heroes stand for anything of substance, the human animal would rather stand with someone who stands for something stupid then someone who stands for nothing
>>729897994I got a laugh in Hopes when Ferdinand asks her about how she plans to school the masses and educate them.And her response was that she never even considered it, she just wanted to make the nobles uneducated so that she'd be the only ruling power.
>>729897994>throws a continent-wide baby rage that kills millionsEven if she had a functional society in mind that wouldn't excuse what she did. The death toll of her continent-wide war is likely absurd.
>>729899848ok when are we going after the jewish kabal?
>>729900610After she's done killing the ones with a raging murderboner for said jewish kabal that would gladly help her murdering them.
>>729897994Meritocracy is a deeply appealing premise; without it your people lose the drive to improve and the ability to tolerate competition as more than a means to determine who lives or dies. It's necessary. Just not, you know, viable as the single thing holding together your entire way of life.She's an idealist, they aren't great at the whole better world thing. But without them, no one would bother trying at all. Just kill strangers and steal their kids, over and over, forever. So she has to exist, and be supported on some level, or the whole concept is an asinine waste of time.
>>729897994>gets reduced to a gibbering mentally disabled retard and raped and gaped by ferdinand's dad in that musou game>dimitri is so put off by her behavior he just leaves her inside a burning building to dieokay then
>>729900191nobles can often be nepo babies a correct society would spit out or demote the elites who refuse or improve with new ones.
>>729897994>support Edelgardbecause shes pretty, thats all.
I CALL UPON THE ULTIMATE AUTHORITY, VIOLENCE
Do we know is Chinatsu is also doing fortune’s weave? The eyes done look as soulless as hers
>>729901405The problem with meritocracy is that it has an unstable means of succession and treachery becomes the norm. Just ask the Romans.>>729902478It might be her, but Pikazo did console IS on how to do eyes.
>>729902478There's an interview where some IS exec glaze the engage character designer and say they learned how to add gradient colors in eyes from her
>>729902783The problem with meritocracy is that the niggers in charge will always redefine merit to mean them.
>>729902815The eyes in FW's trailer do look good
>>729897994It's a cautionary tale about self-centered women with simps having too much power
>>729901405>But without them, no one would bother trying at all.If only you bothered playing the game, you'd realise that the idealist in the game is Dimitri, and even Claude, and they do it without being pants on head retarded. Whereas edelshart is just a selfish little cunt who doesn't give a shit about anything but making he world better for herself, not others
>>729903461Did you mean to respond to a picture of Rhea?
>>729897994The entire premise of Edelgard is fucking retarded to begin with. The one unifying part of society (The church), which has been governed by those with crests for presumably centuries, if not millennia, whose authority has been lessened/watered down by a shadow group whose aim is to also lessen and water down the authority of those with crests who govern their territories respectively, and to install its own version of said shadow groups 'ideal' structure is allied with (arguably) the strongest of the three blocs of the continent to...rip her of her power and authority, and she's on board with it in some vain and thinly veiled attempt to pull the roots of said shadow group out by the roots?And to do that, she attempts to destroy the very thing the shadow group wanted to all along.Full-blown retardation of the highest calibur, supported by simps who want to lead on their own as soon as Edelgard 'completes' her objective (which would never realistically work anyway without divine intervention of Byleth and Seiros herself) and whom presumes herself to be the unwitting champion of this shadow group, just to backstab them.Makes TOTAL sense guise
Edelgard is medieval DOGE>correctly recognizes that the current system isn’t working >burns it down rather than reforming it>doesn’t actually have a plan for something better
>>729897994Edelgard is evil!
>>729904071They're meant to be parallels so you're proving his point.
>>729904071Rhea's not nearly as bad as Edelgard so...Not excusing her actions but her likely innocent murder toll isn't as high as Edelgard's and her continental war, she's not nearly as bad.
Lysithea superiority.
>>729897994Communists are retard in the same way
>>729907486Edelgard is a fascist thoughever
>>729907353For me it's Bernadetta. Shame she's worst house, but I can always poach her.
>>729907636
>>729907604The Austrian painter was socialist thoughbeit
>>729897994The problem with Crests is that they give superpowers that let the minority subjugate the majority, if nobles can be ousted from their positions by force due to lacking overwhelming power that’s a better situation still
>>729908065It's really funny because in like 4 characters' endings they accomplish means to make crests lesser in influence without much bloodshed while Edelgard's solution does nothingIf anything her solution would make it worse for Cresties as breeding programs for superhumans will still exist, they will just have less inherent political power lmao
>>729908065>>729908291>Meritocracy so that people with Crests won't rule>Crests give such an advantage that it's likely that they'll rule anyway>People like Holst who are already on par with Crest-havers despite not having Crests have significant positions alreadygenuinely what does this meritocracy actually accomplish
Edeltard has no real plan, she's just so heavily traumatized by what slitherniggers did to her as a child that she'll light the world on fire to avoid that same feeling of helplessness and powerlessness again.
>>729907604>totalitarianWell, that could be anything.>not hideously uglyFascist.
There isn’t a real solution to the crest system that doesn’t involve genocide is the issue. Rhea at least tried to make the most of a bad situation by developing a culture of the strong helping the weak. All Edeltard is going to do is remove what remained of that system and ensure that the crest fuckers really will dominate everyone else since they are just better than normal people in lore.
>>729897994Still worked out.
>>729909219The real solution, like most things in medieval societies, is the development of science and culture. If Edelgard instead used her massive wealth as Emperor of Adrestia to sponsor sciences, engage in humanitarian projects, and work with the Church in exterminating TWSITD, she would have seen far more success and the world would be far better off.
>>729909219Rhea's system also caused them to slowly breed themselves out of existence. When the game starts, 5 of the crests basically only have a single wielder left. The rest basically will all only marry into nobility, which slowly dilutes the genes out and removes crests from their bloodlines.
Since nobody got 7 last thread, I am once again entreating you to decide a husband for this Christmas cake
>>729909772Niles so Nina can molest Kana
>>729909509Yeah in the long run technology could even the gap and frankly time would do it as well with the bloodlines slowly diffusing. Ironically, Edelgard becoming a supreme empress and ousting everyone else with a crest would also speed it along greatly. But her current idea, that she hopes to implement very quickly after winning the warC wouldn’t help much if at all. It would just lead to people with crest-given strength and intellect naturally rising to the top. Unless she also plans to implement some sort of DEI system lmfao.
Reminder that the internet was created to give educational materials to the poor and look at what the poor are actually using it for.Egalitarianism is fiction and any footage of the impoverished proves that. Edelgard would be the average dysfunctional talking head in the EU.
