If Three Houses' premise didn't have an avatar MC, Claude feels like he absolutely would be the protagonist. He comes from outside of Fodlan and thus isn't caught up in its ruinous bullshit like Edelgard and Dimitri are, he has at least some tie to make him care a bit about the place, and he's looking for the answers to everything while leading a rag-tag group and trying to be crafty in ways that lend themselves well to getting recruits. His route ends up discovering basically everything, defeating the Agarthans in their HQ and defeating what's left of Adrestia and Agartha in the post-game endings. His route is basically a wild ride with him also learning about history and people, culminating in bringing forth a new era with none of the baggage that Edelgard, Dimitri, or even Byleth do.

He also obliterates Fodlan's native culture, massively imports Almyrans to annihilated their genetics, further fractures and divides society by implanting a foreign legal system with him serving as a dictator of two countries, and basically you're the mental equivalent of a modern liberal college woman.

The history mode maps were instead used as the filler levels between main chapters.
Yeah, it's disappointing. I wish they kept them for bonus modes, too. But that's where they went.
Warriors 1 had like ~20 story chapters and then a few dozen history mode chapters.
Hopes had like 60 story chapters and then wedged the dozens of smaller maps in between those.
I hope the next Warriors is either FEW2 or Heroes Warriors, and just spams the fuck out of history/adventure maps.

First it needed the Agarthan route where Myson is able to convince Shez to join up so they can successfully kill the Fell Star, and then the Church route where Shez rejects any lord's offer to stay in their territory for three years and tries to return to the Academy, only to find it closed down by Rhea's orders and Shez is given the opportunity to join the Knights after Alois leaves to rejoin Jeralt.

Claude has the risk of becoming a twat hovering over him as his character weakness, but that still works out for an MC. Claude goes on to actually be a hero in Three Houses. Three Hopes chooses to explore the possibility of him going full twat, which also ties into how Shez is basically not allowed to exist in a setting where things properly resolve without Byleth because avatar MC fans get too pissy.

>>739659183
My interpretation of the difference between Houses Claude and Hopes Claude is that Houses Claude gives up on his power fantasies once Byleth becomes Enlightened and breaks out of the shadow realm. Claude realizes that Byleth is stronger, more intelligent, and basically Claude's only option at that point is to become Byleth's best buddy instead of manipulating them. Meanwhile, Hopes Claude never meets Byleth, and while Shez is strong, they're also an easily-controlled idiot. Without Byleth in the way, Claude can become King of Leicester and kill Rhea years earlier.

I can understand why some people might think personal skills were a mistake. I view them as a compromise to allow for units to reclass so they aren't stuck as a single class every run. The unit has a kind of niche, rather than a limited role. I only have a problem with personal skills in games with the ability to have units become any class with minimal effort, like in 3H.

Byleth is more of a guiding mentor and a lens for observing the world to Houses Claude. Claude can still run circles around Byleth as far as political plans are concerned, and Claude has to fend for himself for five years with what he has learned at the academy.

I partially disagree because Claude's personality changes completely after Chapter 10. Claude does get a new perspective after realizing that Byleth represents the Church and the Church isn't as awful as he conceived it to be, though. There's also Claude's discussions with Cyril about Rhea, too. As for being on his own for five years, that's a sign of Claude's weakness. It makes sense that Dimitri and Edelgard would stalemate because Faerghus has so many Relics and Adrestia has so many soldiers, but Claude being unable to exploit anything during that time shows how he's both militarily ineffectual in comparison and unable to perform grand strategy in the way the Slithers do (and they're already horribly incompetent). Houses Claude needs Byleth, and Hopes Claude needed a massive invasion force, the Almyrans, to do anything.

Yes, I believe Claude is a fraud and is entirely carried by his charisma.

Talking about the story imo is weird, because the structure for figuring out the story is dogshit and then things vary wildly depending on the route. And not in a good way, but more of one that exposes more flaws in the plot.

>Edelgard's route is unfinished and has a bunch of characters act wildly out of character in order to justify her in being the good guy of the story
>Dimitri's route is probably the best written, but that's because it's just focused on his personal journey and not all the retarded shit that's surrounding Fodlan and the War.
>Claude's route is just a lore dump, so the characters aren't as strong, but this is one of two routes that actually bothers to explain all the retarded shit
>Silver Snow is just Claude's route recycled, but you can bang Rhea at the end

The character writing for the most part is good, but the story isn't any better than FE plots usually are imo. Really made a mistake by giving Edelgard a route that wasn't a straight up evil route, and introducing the stupid mole people shit that's the true evil pulling the strings behind the scenes. If they had just left it as 3 kingdoms turning from allies to warring against each other with a sprinkle of dragon bullshit, it would've been a more effective story.
>>
>>739657661
Dimitri then Rhea, not perfect but I enjoyed it a lot, as we would find out later from the devs they were the only non-rushed stories. Took a break and then picked Edelgard and Claude, and their routes weren't great.
>>
>>739659829
Post-Chapter 10 is when all of the minor good influences and learned info start adding up to something greater. Byleth's possible role as head of the church makes things more convenient, but it's irrelevant as far as Claude's awareness of what the church already is (Byleth him/herself is a total outsider to it and its culture). Cyril does have good talks with Claude. As for the war, Houses Claude manages to keep Leicester on its feet and as an Alliance while Hopes Claude struggles more and ends said Alliance early on. Houses Claude manages to stay afloat for much longer, not undermine Leicester, and requires less from Almyra, and he is against the full Agarthan-Adrestian war machine rather than the two being at odds to boot.

Okay let's give Claude a tiny bit of grace here. The biggest problem with Leicester is that the powers are divided (mostly) evenly between the 5 houses of the Roundtable. Meaning most of the time they're trapped arguing with each other rather than doing literally anything. House Gloucester will jump ship to the Empire because the Empire is on their front door, unless they have some guarantee for their safety. House Ordelia spent like 10 years being fucked in the ass by the Empire and therefore doesn't have the resources to fight back in any meaningful way. House Goneril is stuck in Fodlan's Lockett fighting Almyrans for the rest of eternity. And House Edmund, actually I don't know what House Edmund is doing. That effectively means House Reigen has to fight all by themselves unless Claude can find a way to unify the Roundtable. Which only happens if Dimitri saves their asses, Edelgard conquers them, or they fall in under literal god

I don't actually mind that concept, BUT ONLY IF each route is actually consistent with what is revealed in the story, just from a different perspective. But when you have
>The Black Eagle Fanfic Route
>The FE Protag Route
>The Lore Route ft. Claude
>The Lore Route ft. Seteth

Now you're just taking the piss. Especially if you aren't going to at least diversify the maps for each route so that replaying the game 4 times for the full story isn't the biggest fucking slog in franchise history.

House Edmund was the wealthiest at the table, but that was dependent on free trade. With the war going on, and Marianne being unsuitable to inherit the house while her aging adoptive father was dying at home, meant that it was rapidly losing power and influence. Margrave Edmund was also Leicester's best orator, yet without the ability to leave home, he wasn't able to help rally the Alliance in any way, shape, or form.

Well this part I don't entirely mind since bias is a cornerstone of the narrative. One man's heroic king is another man's savage monster based on what you know and how much grace you're willing to give. Every leader has blood on their hands so the argument of who was right mostly comes from how much benefit of the doubt you're willing to give. The main reason people call Edelgard a dumb dumb isn't just because Edelgard calls Nemesis a hero. Hell she didn't get that from nowhere, her father told her that and Edelgard trusts him. However 2 groups of people from opposing sides both call Nemesis a crazy bloodthirsty bandit. Unless you want to argue that Rhea and the Agarthans concocted the same story, it's fair to say that Edelgard was wrong, that he wasn't a hero, and that he was a crazy bloodthirsty bandit that the Slitherers used as their beat stick.

I think it can be pretty fun discussing a narrative like this because there's always a truth but that truth is always filtered through the person telling it. I like Seteth. But it is true he's always censoring things. CF is my least favorite route but I like Hubert because he's never afraid to speak truth to power even if that means defying Edelgard's orders. Hell I came out of my first CF run thinking Edelgard doesn't deserve Hubert.

With that said, this is also where the tribalism comes from. If you've decided your chosen leader is never wrong in any context then that's where you get the shitflinging and where anything that doesn't support your favorite lord is just bad writing rather than your hero having blood on their hands

Claude's caught up in his own little storyline with being an Almyrran mutt and trying to earn his place as the de facto leicester leader, that has nothing to do with the main plot.
If Byleth didn't exist Dimitri would clearly be the MC.
But if the game was forced to have only one route it would obviously be the church route.

Claude's route ties into the overall history of Fodlan, culminating in attacking Shambhala, learning the remaining secret history of the world from Rhea, then defeating zombie Nemesis to fully usher in a new era without the baggage of the past. No Adrestia (founded by Wilhelm AKA evil Marth), no Faerghus (founded by the kids of the Ten Elites and on a short leash), the church acknowledges a need to change, and Leicester rises above its squabbles.

>>
>>739665162
Claude's route is about trying to find out what his mother's home nation/continent is like. Everything up to and beyond Shambhala is part of that, as is learning about the people. He's outside of Fodlan's traps and sunk-cost fallacies, sees the bigger picture, and has the mentality to thoroughly change things for the better. The more conventional Fire Emblem house leaders don't have that combination of factors.

The moral conundrums of Claude's story (do am racism bad??) aren't nearly as complex or morally grey as Edelgard's "Should be rip the bandage off of society" vs Dimitri's "slowly changing the status quo will cause less conflict."
>>
>>739665237
Edelgard and Dimitri are far more steeped in Fodlan's woes and ideologies than Claude. Edelgard is also allied with the Agarthans in part from duress and convenience, and Dimitri has his own personal trauma and a route that explores his mental state more than the other house leaders' are. There's also the matter of Claude's route potentially having the closest thing to a "golden route" for Three Houses.

Would an FE game with an SP bar for characters work? Magic and combat arts could take SP for use, and like the Engage bar it could be refilled from defeating enemies. Could also have every character have SP growths or stuff like that.

Dimitri and Edel just have more going on character wise + more conflict and emotional stakes within the lore of the setting. Claude is an outsider with no real tethers to Fodlan and is undoubtedly the most 'normal guy' of the leaders, which makes him kind of boring.

Doesn't help that so many of the golden deer house guys don't have that much going on with each other either.

Yeah, it only lists one of each enemy type, no duplicates. It would put a second thief if it had a different starting inventory. Do you happen to have a speedwing to waste?

I was envisioning Byleth's paralogue isn't Memories of Red Canyon, but instead Byleth soloing Berling's Mercenaries, which ends with cornering Shez and watching them Awaken and then lose it just before Jeralt calls for departure. Byleth's paralogue comes after Shez attacks Jeralt on the school grounds. The player doesn't know Shez is in the game until that point. There's multiple other important details involved in the game, such as a truncated White Clouds that's only about 6 chapters long (which means rescuing Jeralt requires burning all your free time and resources during a new game, or only saving him in NG+), and two separate time skips (3 years after the end of White Clouds, 2 more years after another 6 chapters setting up your lord's objectives and goals). The end of the first time skip is when Shez reappears in their Awakened state, pushes Byleth to the edge, and forces Byleth to become Enlightened, which is what causes them to sleep for 2 years (though they're thought to be dead because the fight with Awakened Shez is so spectacular it causes locations like Arianrhod to be destroyed and collapse on Byleth, while Shez is abducted to safety by the Slithers). Shez doesn't appear again until another 6 chapters later when Arval ASSUMES DIRECT CONTROL to kill Byleth, sacrifices Solon to open Zaharas, and Byleth, Shez, and the route's lord are pulled in and need to kill Epimenides. If Jeralt is alive, then Byleth has the motivation to pull Shez out of Zaharas when they try to stay behind with Epimenides' corpse. If Jeralt's dead, then Byleth leaves Shez behind. The player gets Shez for the last quarter of the game if they're recruited. Also, in case it wasn't obvious, Jeralt can be recruited. He joins at the start of the second time skip, about halfway through the game, if he's alive.

A series of "invasions" in order to reclaim arable land that the Kingdom stole from them during their formative years thanks to the Lance of Ruin and Macuil making part of their country impossible to settle.
>Almyra
Despite having a king, it does not seem to be that far removed from places like Lycia and Leicester in structure according to Hopes. Which is to say, a lot of people tend go off and do their own thing despite no formal orders from central command. So its less an almyran invasion in a formal sense and more a gaggle of bandits or the random power hungry noble trying to invade and get his ass kicked. As shown with Shahid where its obvious that Nader wasnt actually trying to strategize and let him flounder.

Almyra in 3H proper are not trying to do a serious invasion. They had ample opportunity to fuck up the alliance during the war since they were weakened but did not do anything of consequence. Instead, they only sent Nader and a small fleet (who people hype up as pretty strong in terms of tech) when Claude requested the assistance and promptly leave if Claude loses.

In the first place, if you look at the geography, its laughable to think that a single land route could completely cockblock Almyra from invading when they have wyverns/ships out the ass and Leicester's capital is a port.

Only crest-bearing of Count Varley who is the most disliked man in the Empire. Basically just used her like a tool and turned Bernie's childhood into one big trauma session since he was constantly doing shit like putting her through bride training, which iirc was something like tying her to a chair and leaving her there for days until she became more subservient. And also there was that time he found out that Bernie had made friends with a filthy commoner and nearly beat the kid (who was Yuri) to death while she watched and then her dad told her that she was responsible for the kid "dying".

Bernie is depressed because of abuse. Marianne is depressed because she has the Crest of the Beast, which means she believes that she brings misfortune to others and one day her Crest will activate just as her ancestor Maurice's did, forcing her to transform into a monster and she'll kill everyone she loves. Maurice was stricken from Church record because he was a murder-rapist, so Marianne feels compelled to keep her Crest a secret.

It's not worse than engage. Bad? Yes. Outrageously overrated? Yes. Worse than engage? No.
The thing is pretty much everyone acknowledges engage's story is shit, while at the same time holds 3H's story on a pedestal like it's the best thing since sliced bread. There's exactly one route that has a decent story and that's because the blue lions actually have a coherent character driven arc, and even then there's glaring flaws and contrivances like Rodrigue's death and Dimitri seemingly going from edgy angst filled death machine to remorseful ruler overnight. The more you looking into edelgard's route and her character as a whole the more you realize how absolutely retarded she is, and how much she ruins the theme of 3H because of how many concessions the game gives her to try to force the narrative that there is no true good side in this conflict (there is). And then byleth as a blank slate completely falls flat, the bitch has no voicelines, no agency, no emotion, etc., and we're supposed to believe that she's this life changing mentor to whichever class we picked and an excellent commander/professor. Ludonarrative dissonance is a reddit term but holy shit is it true for Byleth.

I don't even know why Byleth is taken remotely seriously as a character at all, when she's written like a Sue straight out of self-aggrandizing fanfic. Nothing about her makes sense from the first moment. Why is this young turd already such a consummate pro? The real answer is obvious - Byleth, as the designated self-insert avatar, MUST be hot and cool and desirable, and also better than everyone else at everything. But why is this fucking trash taken seriously as writing? Why do people swear up and down that this is breaking NEW GROUNDS for Fire Emblem? Like everything else before it was juvenile kiddie shit? My, IS just had know idea what they were doing until they landed on a player power fantasy upon as big and ridiculous as Byleth.
Even Fates, bad as it is, had the sensibility to make Corrin a young fool. She was still wanked by everyone, sure, but they at least the writers weren't trying to convince you of her peerless ability. That was the exclusive domain of Ryoma and Xander. Corrin is just some fucking dweeb of dubious parentage that everyone thirsts for.
Byleth is Player as God, and all the consequent implications of that. The level of wank reminds me of the movie Pootie-Tang, where at one point titular protagonist and supreme lady's man Pootie offers a dog-bowl of milk to one of his admirers, and the joke is that she actually gets down on her knees and laps it up like a dog at his feet, so mighty and compelling is his cock.
But Pootie-Tang was a comedy, not a war story.

Well, after all, the punchline to every 3H glaze-fest is that you have to ignore more things than you pay attention to for its story to work better than an NES game. It's a game that Invented Writing for the Fire Emblem series, because it gave Fire Emblem characters last names for the first time.

Most games tell a coherent plot with appropriate build and emotional payoffs. Coherency has been a challenge in the past decade+, but even Fates managed to build up Garon as a villain, before turning him into a goo monster. Shit just happens suddenly in 3H. You're at Garreg Mach, then the next you're marching on the imperial capital before lopping Edeltard's head off.

I'm serious. 3H felt like a ruined orgasm of writing to me. Edelfat has her chimpout, there's a timeskip, you see nothing of her until the final 30 minutes of the game, then she turns into a tree demon and dies. That's the story. Far from being better than anything before it, it felt worse in unique ways.

>>739687507
>even Fates managed to build up Garon as a villain, before turning him into a goo monster
The funny thing about the goo monster bit is that it's extremely coherent in how it was done. The game tells you over and over that Garon long stopped being Garon, and his monstruous nature isn't kept as a secret at all in CQ.

Like the only good thing about 3H is its setting and characters. That shit was all foreshadowed.
If you think Fates built up Garon being made of goo, how the fuck did you not see "this war has been going for five years, so we need to spend several months working towards Enbarr to kill Edelgard" coming? Where the fuck did they foreshadow that Garon was made of goo?

I think Engage has highly overrated gameplay, but the story did hold my attention better than my 3H playthrough. After the timeskip I was in complete tune-out mode just trying to finish.

I like how you can't even name an instance that says he's a goo monster, so you just have to say "basically the entirety" of the game.
Yeah, they sure talked about that during the fox genocide level, or the ice tribe level, or the staircase.
Acting different? Yes. Literally being made of a pile of goo? No, it's completely out of left field. The purpose of the throne was to dispel enchantments on people, not show that they're actually a room-sized pile of goo. There's no foreshadowing to that.
Especially when comparing it with "we need to go to Enbarr and kill Edelgard" which is like the whole fucking premise of half the 3H routes by the midpoint, and killing her is the end.

It would be a wall of text to mention them all, if anything. Hell, you can literally tell from the prologue that Garon isn't a normal human, as he has connections to the invisible water people that no one knows about.
Of course, you wouldn't know that, because all you know of Fates' story is hearsay and you didn't pay attention to a single thing it set up.

More bad things, sure. Making 4 separate routes that each have to cover separate themes and concepts, sometimes contradicting each other by making characters act wildly out of character to justify the plot, certainly is a way to give more to talk about.

Considering that Corrin's siblings were still too stockholm'd by Garon even after that, he was completely justified. The only one who stepped up to defend him was Xander, and he absolutely needed that to be convinced as proven by the other routes.

It's a dumb point from the getgo. Who gives a shit if he's goo or not? He becomes a dragon in BR. The real issue is he's cartoonishly evil, employing cartoonishly evil henchmen, and literally nobody but Corrin and Azura give a fuck.

Yeah, that's the issue. Fates's story was retarded and nonsensical. Even in the one piece of foreshadowing that Garon was a goo monster (which is so out of left field, that the "foreshadowing" is them literally showing you that he's a goo monster, because there's no fucking way to actually justify something that outlandish), the scene itself uses a one-use magical unexplained crystal ball that can just see anything.

But I explicitly said Fates built up Garon better than Edelgard before the goo-ening. The point being we saw more of Garon as villain than we saw of Edelgard as villain. You're the one who laser focused on the goo, when the thrust of the argument was about how much we see of these two characters as villainous agents. There's barely any Edelgard after the timeskip in AM. The game leaves much about her and her motives mysterious and unanswered, in service of its retarded, forced route-based plot structure. Fates is kinda similar, but not as extreme.
The overarching point being that 30 year old games managed to do what 3H (and Fates) couldn't - come up with a coherent villain in a self-contained narrative that shows the villain doing things and explains his motives by the end.
To even come close to getting an equivalent experience in 3H's bloated mess of a story, you have to play through the game 4 times.

He's not really well built as a villain because no matter how good in the past he was, every good Nohrian treats what he's doing as suspicious and something to worry over, but the guy is at the same time maniacally talking to himself and murdering everyone who even asks him questions like a complete lunatic. He long passes the point of worrying over him. The fact that his children have such a hard time believing that he was replaced by a goo monster is dumb. Not to mention that the supposedly good Garon was over 15 years ago, so Elise and Leo would hardly even remember it.
Had he been even slightly normal, at least at first, it would be understandable but how it is makes every Nohrian almost as evil, or just blind retards.

He was quite the charmer.

You do know there's more to building up villains than jusst "showing up and doing stuff", right?

He literally doesn't. Fomortiis jumps from the stone to him, uses him as a vessel, consumes his soul as fuel, and then Fomortiis jumps back to his original body. He never "turned into a demon" you lying retard.

>>739690807
Your complaint was that "shit just suddenly happens in 3H" when you're defending the game with

>>739690807
>than we saw of Edelgard as villain.
What do you mean, she's pretty fucking villainous in all the routes, outside CF trying to whitewash her by making everyone else worse. She starts s conspiracy and a war from the shadows in the first part, is practically responsible for kidnappings and murders all around.
The worst the story will do is say that she had her reasons, but it never claims she did nothing bad.

CF was last.

Nope, he already is turned into a demon in Eirika route before he reaches the woods. The convo with Morva in Eirika route has Morva recognize the demon king immediately, while Ephraim route has Morva try to convince Lyon to fight off the demon king. Eirika route Lyon is literally the same concept as Garon no matter how hard you try to plays semantics.

Reminder he has a lying down sprite because he just drops dead, then Fomortiis warps the body to the next room so the soul can jump back into the demon king corpse, before Eirika catches the soul with a pokeball.
So we're now at the point where the guy who claims Goo-Garon is better writing than 3H is now admitting he just straight up made shit up about FE8's plot.

>>739691475
That's not really a comparison because the 3H cast is objectively much more developed than most of other games. It's clear that they took a lot of time in making the cast feel like characters, with things like their birthdays being a part of the calendar, their favorite foods actually making sense, their likes and dislikes actually showing up constantly, their chapter by chapter location, their affinities and others. And ignoring a few exceptions, their supports can range from a lot of stuff that isn't really tied to their main personality gimmick.
They are a very good cast and they are one of the main reasons the game was so successful and why people usually ignore the holes in the paths stories.

I will agree that some characters motivation in CF, but a lot of them do make sense in the context of the story where they show that they could easily go to Edelgard's side. Half of the Golden Deer are civilians who don't care about the Alliance, the other half come from opportunistic families who throw their lot with the Empire, the teachers are from there, Shamir is a Merc and Alois will go where you tell him to. Mercedes has reasons to join her brother and doesn't care about the kingdom, and Sylvain and Felix have it of a bad end to their character arcs even if them betraying Dimitri is out of character. Annette, Ingrid and Ashe are the one that make the least sense.

Route splits that are actually done halfway not from the start? Kinda like FE8 but this one is more drastic.
Time skips?
Dimitri, Edelgard, and Claude are actually pretty unique protagonists in terms of personality and quirks that also contributed alot to the story?
Bringing back Jugdral elements while doing more things with them is a good thing while also integrating them with modern styled characters. (cult, crests/holy blood)
Fighting characters that you already know before in the story?

>Prince who miraculously spares all his enemies
I don't think this is interesting since you only see it in the story while gameplay-wise you are just killing them all. Just classic gameplay and story segregation.
>spiritual stands who take the shape of rings and imbue wearers with special powers
I mean in terms of FE it is new but you forgot Tokyo Mirage Sessions which is pretty similar. Also the concept is pretty out of there either and not something you'd appreciate in an FE setting.

Where's that? Eirika route Lyon is explicitly the Demon King, you illiterate.

>>739696116
More than one person is talking to you. I have not praised Fates writing at any point. I made the argument that Fates writing is better than 3H writing in a specific way, but not by much. It's a condemnation of both.
But where Fates is ridiculed for its incoherence, 3H's incoherence is excused because people like the game on a vibes level - or so it appears to me.
I honestly believe if Byleth did not exist as self insert, and the story was told entirely from the perspective of the lords, and you couldn't marry anyone, no one would care about 3H's writing at all. Its legacy subsists on the culture war.

The quote you posted has Morva call Lyon a human.
You're now saying that your own evidence is wrong.

>>739696385
That's on Ephraim route, you absolute dumbass. On Eirika route, he's completely possessed, which is the entire point. Do you think I've been distingusihing both routes for no reason?

Dude, you fucked yourself. That's pretty impressive.

He turned into a demon, yes. He was completely possessed into the demon king, turning into him.

Fucking lmao. Pathetic.
No, he was just possessed. He didn't turn into a demon at all.
Hell, he wasn't even completely possessed. You're arguing about the Eirika route, but Lyon repeatedly talks to her, especially in the final mission. He wouldn't be able to do that if he was completely possessed.
You're just an idiot.

>Possession: domination by something (such as an evil spirit, a passion, or an idea)
You are literally arguing semantics over what possession means, you have nothing. Morva still exists to explicitly call the demon king the demon king, while distinguishing Lyon as being manipulated by the demon king.

>>739697053
You said he transformed. He didn't. This was to justify Garon transforming from a human into a goo monster.
You then changed the goalposts to possession, which is a completely different thing. Which is why it's a separate word.
You've forgotten what your original argument was and have thrown it under the bus, just because you were losing another one.
>>
>>739697201
Yeah, he did transform from a human into the demon king. Again, you're digging yourself deeper by relying on just trying to argue the meaning of words instead of just acknowledging your cognitive dissonance of Garon's story being a typical FE corruption trope.

>>739696913
Anon, SS is like 6 hours tops if you play it like God intended by letting Seth solo.

>>739697351
>Yeah, he did transform from a human into the demon king.
Fucking when? You still never gave an example. The closest you get is possession, which is a very semantics way of going "Uh, I meant transforming like THIS."
And if you do it that way, then it's not relevant to the "Garon turning into a goo monster" discussion at all.
So you just lose, no matter what angle you take.
>>
>>739697445
I did, Morva proves it as clear as day. You just don't like it because it proves that you have no evidence that there's anything wrong with Garon being a dragon/goo especially in the context of FE.
>>
Equalizers are a fucking scam. Never bother with them.

>they're still arguing about goo for some reason
>>
Niggas really be arguing over literally words
