>>743265561Nobody actually knows, people just assume the mangaka they hired to write the original draft wrote a better story than Komuro. Which to be fair is very likely to be true given the low bar.

>>743263053BR Migu
>>743266234I'd be fine with more Fodlanverse games if they just gave it Engage gameplay instead of the horrendous 3H system.
>>743265561Conquest was advertised as a "reform the evil kingdom from the inside" route, so people were hoping for some interesting schemes, clever writing, badass moments. Instead you're a pawn for the first half, then a retard for the second half.

>>743266459made for the indian audience
So here's a question. I prefer the old games in general, thought Awakening sucked and Fates was OK but mostly kinda meh in retrospect. SoV was pretty good. Would I like 3H or Engage? I really miss this series but don't feel like replaying Sacred Stones for the 500th time.
>>743266459They want the modern audience
>>743266719bro just play engage already

how did we get from, camilla to ivy to brown shit?
So, how do we feel about the faction map themes we've heard so far? For me it's House Lamine > Wind of Ribeira > Megaera's Torch. We still haven't heard Rose Tempest's theme, Lefa and Buck's gameplay clips just used the Together We Ride re-arrange that I assume is map theme for the heroic games.
>>743267038Buccaneer has it rough
>>743267096Nel ate them and shat them
>>743267038hear me out, but would
>>743266719High chances you'll like both. You don't have to play all routes in TH if you don't want to, and only 13 year olds who only played TH and didn't even play Engage are the ones constantly raging about Engage. Three Houses will have better story moments, Engage will have better gameplay. Both games will have stupid one-note characters.
>>743267009I think gameplay matters more than anything else, but yea I like story. That's why I had such a lukewarm reaction to awakening/fates, story was very tropey/cliche anime shit. Treehouse localization really fucked my vibes once it was pointed out to me how utterly dogshit it is, not that it was exactly hard to notice something was off with the character writing in the first place. Are they involved in 3h/engage at all?
>>7432667193H will feel similar to Echoes, while Engage will feel closer to the older games. Do what you will with this information. There are pain points about both of them that may hamper your ability to enjoy them.
>>743267013gays need not apply
>>743266719you're better off not playing fire emblme I dont understand why people have such a hard time understanding their own tastes. this might be more your speed

>>743267215>suggests game that plays literally nothing like old fe
I have never played the switch games, which one should I play?I heard that 3H is more like Persona and that Engage is a proper return to form, is that correct?
>>743266217>corrin isnt dumbthere are a lot of very retarded plot points across the 3 routes of conquest/fates/revelation that are only explainable by corn having sub 70 iq; now the out of universe explanation for this is obviously the writers being fucking retarded and incompetent but that doesn't change the in universe explanation being there's too much lead paint being used in hoshido and nohr

>>743267679so?
>>743267514bait used to be believable
>everything must have loredo 3HRTs actually believe this?
>>743267514>Yes, Corrin, conquering and murdering Hoshido is ABSOLUTELY the only way to show them that Garon us evil
>>743267723Of course the game is going to hold back on easier modes you absolute retard. Just like Ashnard doesn't rush you in PoR on easier modes.
>>743267294>Kamui
>>7432674283H has very little persona influence, if anything the student raising and high degree of customization over unit skills and re-classing is more like Valkyria Chronicles meets Fire Emblem than anything to do with persona. 3H and Engage are on basically polar opposite ends of the fanbases who like them; obviously there's fire emblem fans who like every game and love them both the same way there's people who love both the Gameboy Advance titles and the GameCube Tellius entries, but within the venn diagram overlap they're pretty far away from each other. Engage is a much more light-hearted and less serious story and the gameplay can be polarizing due to shit like bonded shield being a centralizing mechanic, 3 Houses characters are either love it or hate it and it has a story that still causes endless lore arguments and shit flinging a decade later which, if nothing else, is a mark of being memorable, the same way there's people screaming about Stormcloaks vs Imperials 15+ years later too. 3 Houses characters were largely written by Koei Tecmo and not IS and the difference between the two companies is quite apparent if you play engage and 3H back to back, if you prefer the Koei writing there's also 3 Hopes as a musou game with alternate timeline routes for the Houses cast with a new protagonist and Byleth as an ally or enemt

>>743267932>,.holy fucking esl
>>743267773Yes, actually. The royal family has been victims of Garon's doppleganger for so long that they don't dare openly oppose him, plus the older siblings are double stockholmed due to the real Garon being good to them most of their lives. There's a reason why Xander is the only one who musters up the will to stand up to the doppleganger when he's finally exposed.

I think if FW does well it's because it followed the 3H/Engage formula. But if it bombs, it's because it's just another Engage/3H clone.

>>743268171on the weekends xander makes sure it's higher
>>743268171Wait how the fuck does that work. Wasn't Azura kidnapped from Nohr in retaliation for Garon kidnapping Corrin? Which would mean Sumeragi already died. How was Sakura born?
>>743268171Is she? It's possible Ganon got their mother pregnant and within the time of the pregnancy coming to term all the events happened.
Where do you guys post when you're not shitposting in FE threads?
>>743268260This doesn't work because engage literally does have a name for its land however tho
>>743268171Don't forget that Sumeragi cheated on his wife and married Mikoto while her corpse was still warm
>>743268319/pol/youtube comments
Fates has a worse story than Engage and it's not even close.
>>743268304Do you all just think humans pop out instantly after sex?
>>743268305It is possible, but the timeline would have to be really compressed
>>743268319Dani Doyle's Discord
>>743268137>AwakeningSince you mention it, that map layout literally looks like Gangrel map flipped horizontally.
>>743268171Fates' possession is intresting, since it essentially hijacks the body and conciousness of the possessed until death. So, Elise is both Garon's and Goo's child at the same time.
>>743267565My cope is only early game maps are going to be this shitty.
>>743268304Sakura isn't Mikoto's biological daughter. Sumeragi had a wife before Mikoto who is the mother of all the Hoshidan siblings.
>>743268360I don't disagree
>>743268408The Gangrel map is much better, both with enemy and terrain placement
i dont get why fates not having a continent name a big deal?they have a country names anyway. why would another country use the other countries continent name anyway?
>>743267038Uhh her thoughts on blond boys?
>>743268423The game never even explains how Garon got possessed; did he get possessed after dying, like Sumeragi and Mikoto?
>>743267565>tmsissy profile pic That's a hardcore gaygie, though
How would you rank the Fates royals in terms of competence?
>>743268360I don't think that's ever been in dispute, they're both bad but what was done to Fates can't be forgiven. Engage was made to be a McDonald's meal, but you can tell there was a vision with Fates that for the most part was left on the cutting room floor. You can see some of it shine through in Support scripts. That's what makes it worse than Engage, in my opinion.
>>743268503NOOO YOU NEED TO KNOW THE CONTINENT'S NAME FOR A WAR BETWEEN TWO NEIGHBOURING COUNTRIES!
>>743268451I'm aware she isn't. I'm just saying the timeline is really fucked up for it to be accurateMikoto probably arrived when Sumeragis wife was still pregnant with Sakura. She probably died after giving birth and Sumeragi immediately made Mikoto his new queen. Then Sumeragi is killed by Garon and Corrin is kidnapped, then Azura is kidnapped in revenge.Man Fates was fucking retarded
the funniest fates thing is ryoma being jealous of a toddler's superior leadership
>>743268667Proof?
>>743268360They're bad for different reasons. Fates' story is bad because the plot is nonsensical even though the concept was good. Engage's story is bad not because the story or themes don't make sense, but because it's the most generic shonen fantasy story ever with paper thin depth. Sure it's not riddled with inconsistencies like Fates, but there's nothing to endear you to the story.
>>743268701he says it
Who came in the S drink yo…
>>743268601The funny thing is that the Hoshidans believe Sumeragi is Corrin's dad. So, they all know that Sumeragi cheated on his wife and impregnated Mikoto before Takumi and Sakura were born. No one ever comments on this
Ephraim would solo both Nohr and Hoshido in less than a week.
>>743268728>shonen is bad now
>>743268728>concept was good.call me crazy but I dont think japan good europe bad was that much of a good concept
>>743268701>I don't think it's in Corrin's nature to lie. And there's a leadership quality about him/her that just attracts followers. I remember being jealous of him/her as a child, in fact. Even at such a young age, he/she displayed the characteristics of a ruler. Silly to be jealous of him/her, right?
>>743268529He got the Takumi treatment of being possessed while still alive. His BR death scene, supports talking about his changed behaviour and Takumi being a clear parallel to him all back up the idea that he was taken over while alive.
>>743268774Ephraim basically john wick'd the grado army
>>743268503ESL postBut you are correct the lack of a name for the continent is the least of Fates' writing problems.
>>743268503The inexistent continent name is just the peak of absurdity, but nothing else makes sense about the world building. The timeline is contradictory no matter how you look at it, the small gap between Nohr and Hoshido is actually filled with a lot of small kingdoms that amount to absolutely nothing except for a chapter where they are relevant, the geography is weird and things work just because, like Nohr being a barren wasteland and still being an expansionist kingdom that can endlessly wage war against the just as big and mich better supplied Hoshido, among many other issues.
Remember how Xander and Ryoma agree to just cede parts of Nohr and Hoshido just so Corrin can have their own kingdom to rule over? All those Nohrians and Hoshidans have to cosplay as Vallites, who are 99% gone, just to suck off Corrin
i think mika's next FE should be shoujo anime.only feMC, full of cute girls and no boys.*needs hortensia MC
>>743268767Well it is said that he made Mikoto his concubine but it just seems, out of character? For the goodie two-shoes Hoshidans and a man whose 4 children are all from the same woman. At least with Garon all 4 of his kids are from different moms.But with Sumeragi it's like "yeah he loved his wife dearly and had 4 kids with her but also knocked up Mikoto on the side lmao"
>>743268802Europe is more justified than it seems and Japan less justified than it seems in Fates when you dig beneath the surface.
>>743265285>>743267461
>>743268902>ryoma is totally unaware of nohr having famines until silas tells himwhat were they teaching that lobster fuck

>>743268795The good shonens have endearing things.
the incest bait and switch is still the funniest thing
>>743268360Engage is at worst a saturday morning cartoon with some silly tropes.Fates is just a fucking mess.
>>743269076>The good shonens have endearing things.youre retarded.
>>743269051This is Hoshido slander.
>>743269051this is factual
>>743268926>Save two kingdoms as a prince of both nations>Conquer the unknown lands while you're at it and be officially declared King>Get territory and willing subjects as a reward as a show of good faithThis is very, very standard.
>>743268934Sounds gay, go play your barbie doll gachasWar stories are MEN stories and FE is about WAR.

>nothing makes sense about the word building>the timeline is contradictory no matter how you look at it>numerous small kingdoms only relevant for one chapter at best>nonsensical geographyall ok when 3H does it btw
At least Fates gave us the best girls in the franchiseEngage only has the 4chandog
>>743269051I'd switch Ryoma and Takumi, at least Takumi is honest in his bitchiness. Ryoma is a sneaky fuck
>Fates writing>Fancy Estate>Riverside village>Walled Town>Hoshidan Captial>Small Village>Town in Izumo >Forest in Mokushu>Isolated village>Destroyed town
>>743263478Why tf do they keep doing this? its so boring
>>743269171>muh warcrimesSLOP!!!
>>743269191Did I say Engage was bad? Jesus fucking christ I actually like Engage as a game more than I do 3H but you fucking Engagefags are so fucking annoying and defensive.
>>743269169There are no unknown lands though, Valla is sealed off at the end of Revelations. They just carved out a chunk of their kingdoms and gave it to them
>>743269215If you can't pinpoint Noltradia, Cheve, and Notre Sagesse on that map you weren't paying attention to the script and are in no place to complain.
>>743268534Ryoma > Takumi = Leo > Sakura = Elise > Camilla > Hinoka > Xander
>>743269193>nonsensical geographyThat one is funny, because Fates' geography is very consistent to the point where you play the maps in a route in the reverse order of the other route because it's that consistent. For instance, the Rainbow Sage is early game in CQ while it's lategame in BR.
>>743269215dude theyre so right! that village was isolated as fuck!
>>743263478they're not literally their retainers like fates and engage were though
why the hell does nohr exist? like actually. its apparently a barren wasteland where you cant grow anything, they live in perpetual darkness, they got a forest that just spawns super zombies. like how did civilization persist here just move somewhere else
>>743268802I think the initial vision of Hoshido being an incredibly prosperous land who is unwilling to share with the rest of the world and Nohr being a land stricken by poverty who must fight to survive was cool. The issue just came from the fact that they made Nohr's king the most obnoxiously retarded evil villian ever with an axe murderer and the joker being his retainers, leaving it impossible to sympathize with them. They also had like one (1) scene in the entire trilogy that even goes over this dynamic that ends in a stupid misunderstanding because if the nations realized the problem it would immediately stop the war.
>>743269298Only because Leo teleports you across the map, which he never does at any other time
>>743269204but aversa is from awakening
>>743269331Which is why they conquer: Nohr are essentially vikings (even though irl vikings set off due to overabundance of resources instead of a lack of resources, contrary to popular belief)
>>743269204>best girls only one good girl from fates and thats Nyx
>>743263485i notice they kept the classic anime designs to deep rosterweve got pink,blue,green,blonde ojou, but the top of the roster is more groundedhaving their cake and eating it too
>>743268930Underrated woman.
>>743269328Being literal retainers is not the part people dislike.
>>743269331there's people that live in yakutia where it gets like -60C during winter, just something about the concept of home that keeps people from leaving I guess, or moving countries is hard when you're broke in the middle of nowhere and it's all you knowbut no zombies at least
>>743263478It's 3
>>743269347>mfw raul has another melty
How many characters have they shown so far?
>>743269357>rigel-zofia>thracia-lenster>plegia-ylisse>nohr-hoshido>elusia-brodia>sreng-faerghusFire Emblem loves this dynamic of the barren country vs prosperous country, or in some cases, barren vs. less barren. I don't know if they've really explored with much care and detail though.
>>743269426thats kind of my point though how the fuck does nohr exist? societies are generally formed around areas rich in resources. what reason would early people have to stick in the perpetual dark land
>>743269524You mean officially? Or like visible in trailers?
is there a plot point in FE more retarded than the hyperbolic baby incubators?
>>743263485I cannot agree at all ,she >>743263325looks like shit. I dont even really like leda but she looks better than the blonde chick
>>743269597unironically, no
I prefer Severa's cute tits over her ass, desu.
I'm gay
>>743269460
>>743269570Just in general, usually people post collages
>>743269597Valla curseBlood pactCorring not putting twelve kids in Camilla by the time Fates begins
>>743269659>>743269460most anal coded girl in FE
>>743269541This is like the least explored part of Fates' lore, but Nohr and Hoshido were blessed by the Dusk and Dawn Dragons respectively. Who knows what the fuck happened to them
>>743269503>yakutiathat at least has modern conveniences now, and im just assuming here but I imagine before that the people could at least probably fish or hunt for shit if anyone was living there
>>743269485It is. >Lord Dumbo and his two loyal retardsIf a character is introduced and he just has a small group of friends or compatriots or allies on a common cause that join with him it's no problem. We have axe bros since forever.
>>743269678>Corring not putting twelve kids in CamillaWould have utterly ruined her as a unit
>>743269694so cool hows theres stuff like this is that isnt explained fucking anywhere
>>743269541Nohr has a good resource: ores. They're shown to have more powerful arms than everyone else to such an extent that only richass Hoshido can stand a chance when they rally several populations to help them in their war against Nohr. If it wasn't for Mikoto's Valla tech/magic, Hoshido would've gotten stomped long ago.
>>743269618>>743269659I like both. I like how everyone accepted giving her modest breasts. She's not flat, but also not ginormous.>>743269685Really curious how the player daughters rank now. Morgan, Kana, Heidr, Groa, and Alvig.Morgan probably ranks a bit below Severa, surely.
Remember this important character? Remember how sad you were when she fucking diedI don't.
>>743263053Man I'm so glad I'm not a mentally ill zoomer who has to watch every trailer and know every single thing about the game because of fomo. I'll enjoy the game more than any of you by going in blind and not living 24/7 in spoil threads. lol
Literally who asked
>>743269754Another hilarious thing about Fates is how even if you buy Revelations, the game still doesn't actually tell you who Corrin's real father is. It's obvious it's Anankos, but it isn't technically revealed until the Awakening kids DLC.That is unless you figure out the cipher in the records hall which tells you. This is also the only mention of the Hoshidan siblings' mother too
>>7432698023/4 of the anons posting itt aren't going to play this game until it's emulatable. They are too broke and brown to afford to.
>>743269701yep they do this big ice fishing event at lakes when they fish up a fuckton of fish and distribute it as winter prep, some hunting. they have busses and everything, but still a harsh environment. can't even have pipes for the toilet cause they'd freeze so you gotta run outside and shit it all out before your dick freezes off. I bet they use buckets indoors and they dump them afterit's obv not as bad as nohr which is just temu-hell
>>743269801YOUR REAL LITTLE FISHTER
>>743269801I'm glad they recycled her into Veyle, but I'm still mad that Veyle was replaced with her lame good-girl version.
>>743269801
>>743269707The complaints were that it's a monotonous rigid structure to put a bunch of characters into in the first place and that it means the characters are tied to the hip to their Lord and that makes up half their personality. If only Theodora had loyal retainers, it'd be fine because she's actual royalty. But every single main character having exactly two guys super loyal to them and following them around? It just makes the cast feel less real and more like a game dev fitting everyone into equally sized compartments. What's the difference of Tiara and Peter being childhood friends to Cai instead of royal retainers if they're still going to serve the same purpose anyway?
>>743269801one of, if not, the worst "dragon/manakete" designs ever
i still remember the anon who played revelations early, and the hype we all had about the gunther twist. too bad the actual twist was lame as fuck
>>743269986>But every single main character having exactly two guys super loyal to them and following them around? It just makes the cast feel less real and more like a game dev fitting everyone into equally sized compartmentsCharacter archetypes have always been a thing in fe tho. Like is even has a checklist of who fits into what
>>743269801We're just ai generating fake characters and pretending they're real now?
>>743269694They are basically akin to Naga and Loptyr in Genealogy where they're long dead and the humans that they used for their proxy war are still fighting one another. Hell, there are dragon carcasses in Fates just to build on that lore
>>743270027
>>743269986the character dynamic between a person and their two retainers and a person and their two childhood friends is fundamentally different. the complaint with fates and engage was everyone had that dynamic. it made so many supports feel carbon copied. like ryoma's dynamic with saizo and kagero is identical
>>743270051character archetypes like jagens and axe bros are good when theyre in a game i like (good story) and bad when theyre in a game i dont like (bad story)
>>743269986the lords do need some kind of parity, like if theodora just came with 6 extra characters no other route could get it would be a bit lame
>>743270092SAKURA GETS RIPPED APART BY FACELESS LETS GOOOOOOOO
>>743269801she looks like she eats cabbage and shits out gold bars
>>743270074That's Somnie before he troon out into a man.
>>743267773Murder? Corrin doesnt kill anyone except the foxes in conquest
>>743269986I mean we still don't actually know the extent of recruitment, for all we know even these initial characters are recruits too
>>743270114fire emblem became bad when they stopped giving us cool powerful old man units at the end game
>>743270092No matter how bad they turn out, it's very fun when one of these games releases and all this contextless info floods the threads
Realistically, how would the war between Nohr and Hoshido have played out without Corrin to interfere?
We all agree Dietrich's roster blows the other three out of the water right? And Cai's is definitely the worst>dude food! the character>heckin' books and history and teen romance! the character
>>743270051Those are archetypes you can play around more with at least. >>743270093What is the difference between Cai, Tiara, and Peter and Alfred, Etie, and Boucheron? The latter are all still friends and banter like friends. Just like I assume Cai's friends will. That's why literal retainership isn't the problem, it's putting characters is compartments that all join at the same time, it's boring.
>>743270183He murders someone for boots
>>743270209Truth nuke
>>743270215Total Nohrian victory.
>>743269986>What's the difference of Tiara and Peter being childhood friends to Cai instead of royal retainers if they're still going to serve the same purpose anyway?It makes absolutly all the diference. For instance, Fabio is not even a loyal. He's most likely an agarthan misdirecting Dietrich. The expectation and roles of friends, even childhood friends, and loyal retainers, is not remotely the same. The treatment is not the same, the interactions are not the same, it's all completly different.
>>743268503The continents are called nohr and hoshido
>>743270223no, so far im liking cai and theodora the most.
>>743270209Based and real and true.
>>743263053Arthur or Harold?
>>743270215We literally know how it goes, Nohr curbstomps Hoshido before Birthright even begins properly. Ryoma and Takumi's army gets wiped out, and the Nohrians are already way into Hoshido immediately. The Hoshidan capital is besieged the entirety of Birthright, and Garon and the Nohrian nobles aren't even there. The moment Mikoto's magic barrer is down, Hoshido falls
>>743270281No, they're countries. The continent has no name.
>>743270215Xander dies to Ryoma during the would be split. Not sure how they recover after that.
>>743270325I flip flop in my head
>>743270215>No MikotoTotal Nohr domination.>MikotoGaron wins if he manages to asssassinate Mikoto, otherwise tensions between Garon and Xander keep escalating until Xander finally stands up to Garon, which will take a stupidly long time without Corrin there.
>>743270234Well the actual problem of Fates and Engage is the sheer volume of royals, the retainers are a symptom of it
>>743270343The first quarter of Birthright being a wild goose chase for Ryoma, who's just chilling, fucking his tomboy GF, is hilarious
>>743267773Conquest should have been the unironic evil route where you genocide the holy nips with your loving family.
>>743270392It's both. If they had less royals, Komuro would have just given each existing royal three retainers instead of two.
>>743270209It's better when they give us dragonlolis. No one wants ugly old men.
>>743270281Imagine letting Nohr invade you when their only non-naval access is a single bridge
>>743270234>What is the difference between Cai, Tiara, and Peter and Alfred, Etie, and Boucheron?There's no difference, and Alfred, Etie and Boucheron are fine. Engage fucks it up because there's four kingdoms, each with two royal, each with two retainers. More than half of your army is just this one dynamic between them.FW you're picking ONE lord. Not eight, with their associated two units each.
>>743270280Fire Emblem used to be about recruiting weirdos from all over the place. Now half the cast comes tied to the hip to someone important. THAT'S the real problem with retainers. FW is still doing that even if they aren't literal retainers.>>743270392Each version of Fates and Engage have four royals each and FW has four Lords, the volume is equal.
I honestly do not recall anything about Fates.
>>743269892>buying games on release
You know reading on the wiki it's kind of ridiculous how retarded Edelgard is for hating the church when the slithers the comically evil villains behind basically everything wrong in Fodlan. Like everything Edelgard complains about can probably be traced back to being the fault of the slithers.
>>743270486What are you going to do? Park Ryoma at the bridge and have him say, "You will not pass!" They'll just spam their endless hordes of faceless.
>>743270474Cute
>>743270541Don't expect lesbians to think rationally, Anon.
>Mikoto uses Valla magic over Hoshido to create a barrier>the barrier makes anyone who passes through it more docile>is meant to make nohrians into civilians when they pass inside>but hoshidans regularly leave and return>the hoshidans are so natively bloodthirsty, that even inside of the barrier, they want to murder peopleWhat absolute monsters.Also, none of the nohrians that went inside were ever questioned? Hoshido didn't know about the famines?
>>743270513>Each version of Fates and Engage have four royals each and FW has four Lords, the volume is equal.You're not picking four Lords in one playthrought in FW.
I've yet to see a FW character with the deep complex writing of Camilla
>>743270541someone post the classroom gif
>>743270608Still waiting on which FW character will get added to the roster.I wonder if it'll be Leda? Depends on how Eshmel works, and if she goes full-Dimitri in the second half.
>>743270604They didn't become citizens. They returned to Nohr while still enchanted.
cut down on the chaff, which retainers are you saving?
>>743270604The Hoshidians are scum holding an innocent façade, news at 11.
>>743270392There is nothing wrong with retainers. They have a reason to participate in the war and backstories with the characters they come with
>>743270606Why does that matter? If I'm playing as Cai, I'm going to run into Theodora with Bonaparte and Elvis tied to her hip instead of being their own characters.
>>743270574punished Ryoma would sweepI would blow up the bridge, Nohr produces nothing so why would they even want access to it considering they're antagonistic
fact is the gameplay of 3h was snoozeworthy by midgame but i kept pushing for 30 more hours because i wanted to see the conclusion and progression of that narrativeFE has a very fun but quite narrow gameplay loop, if the story is an afterthought what keeps you going for 70 hours?
>>743270674At least four of these characters can stay, they just shouldn't be retainers. Kagetsu probably being the biggest offender
>>743270674all the girls
>>743270659>have a surplus of food and land>could win a war by slowly brainwashing and converting your enemy>could win by just learning why they're fighting>>don't do thatI hate Hoshido.
>>743270674i like all of them
>>743268360maybe but Fates stood the test of time. nobody plays Engage is current day. Fortune's Weave will be forgotten about in under a year of release.
>>743270674citrinne and lapis and goldmary and jade and panette and merrim and thats it
>>743270701>if the story is an afterthought what keeps you going for 70 hours?the gameplay in the Fire Emblems with good gameplay
>>743270529You don't even have that option. You are poor and brown and you emulate.
>>743270689Cool, now come up with a plan to prevent them from sending hordes of Wyvern Riders at you.
>>743270739hoshido is objectively more evil because of this
>>743270674Louis kagetsu citrinne merrin
>>743270674Rosado. The rest are absolute trash.
>>743270689>Nohr simply takes to the seas, like they do in ConquestThere's a reason why Takumi positioned his troops at Port Dia, he knows that it's Nohr's main avenue to invade.
>>743270701>what keeps you going for 70 hours?the game is fun or at least should be, this is where 3h fails
>>743270608
>>743270851Camilla is such a freak. We love her!
>>743270674Simple. I combine them. Chloe now both eats tasty food, but also traveled abroad to find and study animals (to eat). Citrine has some macabre interests and is prone to bursts of anger when in danger. Goldmary has a side hobby as a writer, but writes self insert novels about herself. etc.
The way Engage gave you new recruits in general sucked. It was almost always "Oh, there's three green units chilling with my army on the prep screen, I guess they're joining me." It felt a little annoying since it was like they were hogging deployment slots. If I still had the choice to not use them that chapter it'd feel far less intrusive. Ivy coming to save your ass with her retainers in the middle of chapter 12 or whatever was memorable because it was different.
>>743270679>They have a reason to participate in the warDo they though.....?You wouldn't notice this because engage characters typically don't have motivations or agency beyond being generic quirkos, but when you look at the elusian retainers.....isn't it kinda weird how desperately they are fighting to revive Satan and plunge the world into the dark ages? Like if you ask "Hey Zelkov/Kagetsu, why are you fighting to revive Sombron?" the answer is just "Because that's what Ivy is doing" and then when these characters betray Sombron to fight alongside Alear once again it's "Because that's what Ivy is doing". Again the characters just don't have any agency of their own, I'd almost say it's out of character for them to have ever fought alongside Sombron but there isn't even any "character" to begin with
>>743270961theyre retainers. they are not paid to have agency of their own.
>>743270961You post like a......faggot
>>743270223Cai hate feels so forced now. He has Tiara and Ultand even if he has the fat dork. Theodora is the one with the goofy uglies at the moment.
>>743270574Birthright told me that if I ever wanted to solve any problem, that sending Ryoma in would solve it. Revelations isn't much different either.
>>743270786I send Takumi alone against them, as a jestThey can still send those even with the bridge present, at least with no bridge there's no infantry in addition to the wyverns>>743270815Bombard their ships at sea using pegasluts
call me Big the Cat because I'm obsessed with Froggy
>>743270961Kagetsu was pressed into military service
>>743271037This cai defense meme you are attempting to deploy isn't going to work anon
>>743270674
>>743271037If I can recruit those like I could steal Hilda, Lysithea, and Marianne, then Cai is still a joke.
>>743270674just make some of them non retainers like lapis easily could have just been a girl from a local militia you found in a map trying to fight corrupted ,maybe would could have actually went to not! japan and met kagetsu and what ever fucking fairy land Rosado is from.
>>743271065There's a map like that in BR with wyverns attacking your ship, it doesn't work out for them.
>>743271037He's the most boring lord and his two retainers are teenagers. Agree Theodora's retainers also suck but at least they look like they could kill you in gladiatorial games. Dietrich and crew mogs
>>743271037Pirate waluigi > cal
>>743271095It's already worked. His route's got a couple of confirmed hotties and he's a nose-flicking shonen gawd with a cheeky laugh. Again I say, Theodora is the one who needs to step up right now. Just ashy ugly niggas.
>>743271210fucking saved
>>743271189ah yeah dietrich is so interesting he doesnt look like a nohr reject and we love gap moe, enagage characterization is sooo good
>>743271163That's cause those wyverns made the mistake of being on the red team and also landing to attack. The pegasluts would just airdrop napalm from way higher than archers could realistically hit. I would also cover them in reflective armor to blind the Nohrians that never learned not to stare at the sun

>>743270674The one who sucks the most is the alpaca guy. The rest are fine and can stay. Don't care about Rosado either, but he can stay for the DEI spot
>>743271037>forcedIs that all you can say? You post the same “dae like cai?” shit every day
Which route lets me enjoy BBC the most?
>>743271552Good points, RIP Hoshito
>>743270683It changes because only two members of your army are particularly close to their boss while the thirty other characters you recruit will have their own thing going for them.The issue with retainers isn't the idea that a lord has a close confidant and bodyguard, the issue is how it was standardized and suddenly over half your army is someone else's retainer.
>>743271609Rosado isn't even really DEI. He just dresses like a fruit. A big part of his character is telling everyone that he is a man, but he also just dresses how he wants. He's like Astolfo.The DEI spot is that everyone is bisexual.

>>743270674The Firene crew are the early game recruits, just make them regular, if distinguished soldiers that join during the maps rather than being tied to the hip to their lords. Pandreo and Pannete can join together as siblings somewhere in Solm. Kagetsu is a wild card foreigner so he just enters whenever you need him. Citrinne can be a noble ally in one of the Brodia chapters. Merrin can be a sort of Isadora at any point you need a recruit. And any one of the Hort retainers can stay since they get a purpose for a chapter, but only one of them, you don't need both.
>>743271759Fire Emblem should add a Ranma type character

>>743268023The entire story is about a war between two rival nations with historical enmity fighting over someone who could be successor to both and we don't even know what the place they're fighting in is called, they're also not the only countries on the continent but we know next to nothing about the dozen+ other countries involved that are just mentioned offhandIt turns a war story into a soap opera, borders and nations and the geography and armies don't matter, it's all irrelevant and what actually matters is the Spanish soap opera reveal that Corrin isn't blood related to anyone in Hoshido so he can fuck his "sisters" who are actually complete strangers with no relation or ties to him he's never met before
>>743272410You're supposed to make him into a Master of Arms, which is indeed tanky

>>743263053In year 98, the War of Heroes finally came to a close; 10 Elites were found and slain, their Houses were spared and recruited into the Empire,and Lycaon I, Wilhelm's successor, perished due to a sudden illness. With the Empire now ruling over all of Fódlan, Seiros recorded the events of the war as the construction ofGarreg Mach Monasterybegan to take place, and established theCrestSocial System which would determine Fódlan's hierarchy for the upcoming centuries.In this new history crafted by Seiros and, in order to prevent prosecution and keep peace in Fódlan (as Nemesis was considered a hero by many),the Nabatean claimed the King of Liberation had been previously gifted power by the Goddess Sothis in order to destroy evil forces from the north, was eventually corrupted by power and, in the end, was forced to be put down by Seiros. Unbeknown to her, Wilhelm I left to the imperial line his own accounts of the conflict as he knew it, claiming the War of Heroes was a conflict about which kind of species deserved to rule over Fódlan: the Children of the Goddess or the Humans.
>>743272598Tbf, there's only one character who can naturally go into Blacksmith, and it's blatant Oni Rinkah
>>743272598It's filler. Basically a Hoshidan Hero with a scavenging gimmick. If Chieftain didn't mog it into the dirt, well, it still wouldn't be good. Just a worse Master of Arms really.

>>743272396Didn't Xander say when he first met Inigo he was as good as he was in combat or something? There was a lot of unnecessary wanking of the Ylisse trio in Fates for whatever reason.Made all the more hilarious in Revelation when he and Odin join and they are actual putrid shit as units.
I like to play Rev while drunk because it's tolerable that way and I like the novelty of having everyone.
Fates reads like a grade schooler attempting to summarize a much more complex narrative, which is basically what happened.They got some famous manga author to write the draft and then IS' writers shat out whatever Fates is.
>>743272598>merchant>mechanist>basara>blacksmithA good few of the Hoshidan classes are just artists and craftsmen
>>743272686The scavenging gimmick would've been really funny if you could easily give it to a high luck unit or if it worked for generating CQ weapons. You could essentially sidestep the problem of needing money for forges entirely if it worked like that.

>>743272776I think people could be a bit more understanding about this. People who write for non-vidya aren't always the best at then trying to write for vidya. It's entirely believable that whatever he handed them wasn't too useful for cobbling together 20 or so discrete maps for 3 different stories so they had to use what they coukd and dump the rest. I remember hearing Sawano had a hard time making the transition to vidya composition for similar reasons.
>>743270325The rare occasion I prefer the EN voice, so Arthur. JP voice is fine, but the 60s' superhero EN voice beats it
Peter is so boring and the Gaiden map design is so grim, the thread decided to talk about Fates halfway through instead.

I have a bathrobe and it’s comfortable, I see why the japs wear kimonos
>>743273260Fates is really fun to talk about desu, especially since playing it is even better
What if that map is just a generic dungeon map from the explorable dungeons and the actual chapter maps are fire

>>743272160'kay.
>>743270541>WikiPlay the game. Also, it's clear that Edelgard's rage at the church is in part because she thinks if Adrestia was able to still dominate all of Fodlan, it would have been too strong for any Agarthans to harm her or her siblings. Conquering Faerghus and Leicester is part of that goal for Edelgard, and the church draws her ire because it helped mediate the founding of Faerghus and presumably Leicester later on. While mediating the founding of Faerghus may have actually helped prevent Lugh's army from sweeping south and taking over all of Adrestia, in the aftermath the church actually sustained the policy of the new nations to become the status quo.Edelgard also is angry because she feels that her desperate prayers were unanswered and the church gives people a ruinous false hope. While Byleth does come to her aid several times (and can even side with her outright), Edelgard doesn't know about the Sothis connection at the time or seemingly believe in it fully, and Sothis is never actually responding to Edelgard's prayers.The rest is the Agarthans wanting her to destroy the church anyway and Edelgard not having much in the way of her own influence overall, though things like pic related misrepresent it as though Edelgard was a stranger to the Agarthans and decided to ally with them one day.Edelgard gets more influence a few years into the war.
>>743273260You fags are never happy
>>743273343>What ifthe game hasnt built up enough good will for me to make any good assumptions
>>743273395They just have to show something promising for me to be happy. I was quite satisfied with the Engage previews for instance, they showed off cool shit and nice maps.
>>743273395You don't know anything about me bud.
>>743273395They have this weird idea that everything can be talked about forever and at any time. We've said all we can say about Peter at this point
Anyone who keeps the Awakeninh Trio in Fates doesn't understand what the real problem is. This is a new game, we don't need LITERALLY Severa, Inigo, and Owain. They distract from the narrative and bring down the whole unit roster for the sake of fan service and memberberries for characters from 1 game ago
Keep Owain because he's hot and a dumb slut who's the father of one of the hottest bitches of the series.
>>743273373I have played the game, I just like reading up on the lore in a more accessible location
People sure are excited about this game huh?
>>743273491Nice argument but Ophelia is really hot
>>743273540900 posts!
>>743272646>In this new history crafted by Seiros and, in order to prevent prosecution and keep peace in Fódlan (as Nemesis was considered a hero by many),the Nabatean claimed the King of Liberation had been previously gifted power by the Goddess Sothis in order to destroy evil forces from the north, was eventually corrupted by power and, in the end, was forced to be put down by Seiros.What the fuck?
>>743273395engage made me happy
>>743272646>claiming the War of Heroes was a conflict about which kind of species deserved to rule over Fódlan: the Children of the Goddess or the Humans.Where are you getting this from?
>>743273485What is this copium, people talked about Tiara and Fabio and Bonaparte for the whole time until the next update. Peter is just boring, bro.
>>743273343Well yes, this possibility has been noted. It could be that IS is withholding the story maps for whatever reason. They've been awfully cagey with the details of this game in a way I've never seen before.But it's getting hard to believe when zero (0) maps have looked compelling.
>>743273540We get like 3 threads a day. Outside of some pathetic losers most people are pretty excited. And those useful idiots keep bumping the thread.
>>743273446>was quite satisfied with the Engage previewsI love engage now but I was so scared from the previews, maybe fw will surprise me too
>>743273358Shit
>>743273530You can't trust what most wikis put up, if it's not directly quoted from the game they tend to be way off the mark and Fire Emblem is no exception.
>>743273491I like them, therefore they stay
>>743273619Yup yup, I'm thinking Fodlan WON!
>>743273608Nice.
>>743273585https://fireemblemwiki.org/wiki/War_of_Heroes_(F%C3%B3dlan)There's a shitton of sources provided
>>743273604fabio is only interesting because 3h, people only like Tiara because shes a "cute" cute girl
>>743273624The previews showed off cool maps, intresting mechanics and polish all around. Some shit was scary/ambitious, but IS gave us reason to trust them.
>>743273563If they said the truth and said "our goddess was killed and if you kill us you can make weapons of our bones and drink our blood" that would lead to it happening againIf Nemesis was always a good guy who just became evil then copycats wouldn't happen
>>743270541it's possible to hate BOTH secretive non-human villains manipulating Fodlan from the shadows for millenia, you don't have to pick between hating agarthans and nabateans, you can gas them both together in the same chamber

>>743270541she kills them all off, off screen so its fine :)
>>743273735Ok I choose to gas adrestrians and agarthans
I hope the next thread is peaceful.
>>743273735>secretive non-human villains manipulating Fodlan from the shadows for millenia,Except one "villain" only wants to revive her mommy, the goddess that everyone on the continent worships as it is, while the other villain wants everyone on the continent to die
>>743273685He's interesting because he's an ugly retard. The first character with a realistic eye defect (strabismus) in Fire Emblem.Peter is just an overweight Gordin, we've seen him before. The most interesting thing about him is his cracked personal skill but with so few gameplay details, nobody cares to talk about it.
>>743273784We already have the next thread up.
>>743273491the Awakening kids would be fine if they weren't literally from AwakeningIt's not like we haven't had characters directly inspired by ones from previous entries.We have christmas cavs in almost every game and most of FE6's cast are copycats of someone from the Archanea saga.
>>743273804Thanks I’m heading over to shit it up
>>743273000WTF? How did you get trips after they disabled them?
>>743273491Based, fuck these characters
>>743273826we know, no lifer
>>743273731It's still kinda funny. Perhaps that's why Edelgard went all war hungry. Also Seiros could've said that the Nabateans/CotG were extinct and therefore said power doesn't exist anymore.
>>743273585We've known that was what happened for years, there's even a Nintendo Dream kusakihara interview where he straight up says that the reason Seiros canonized Nemesis and the Elites as saints is because they were too beloved by humanity to be painted as villains. Instead their success was co-opted into the church and their descendants were praised as noble and blessed with power by the goddess for their virtue and not, you know, being really good at Monster Hunter https://serenesforest.net/2020/03/24/three-houses-nintendo-dream-interview-reveals-first-route-claudes-real-name/
Despite everything Fire emblem threads feel way more organic than whatever FotM is shilled right now
>>743273778This
>>743273395Im happy when I play good fire emblem games like 7
>>743273790Even Seiros 's own full-blooded siblings think she's a fucking moron and want absolutely nothing to do with her wars or the church, she wasn't quietly sitting in a corner trying to revive Sothis and nothing else for a thousand years. Hell, when she does revive Sothis it's literally an accident that has nothing to do with the church at all, just Jeralt getting pussy and his wife wanting a baby (which Seiros had to be convinced of by her daughter to even allow)
>>743273790And also executes people for minor things.Play the game next time.Worth mentioning that Rhea lit a fucking city on fire. Yes, she was angry and vengeful, but that's beyond justifiable.
>>743273491>hey distract from the narrativeMotherfucker, they're like the only retainers involved in the narrative besides like... Saizo.And they're still better than most of the retainers!
>>743273984She made Sitri and put the crest stone in byleth so it does have a lot to do with her
>>743273803>The first character with a realistic eye defectno one actually care about this, thats only interesting because he might be a slitherer
>>743273839The threat of grave robbers would still exist.>>743273996>for minor thingsYeah and all the shit Edelgard is just minor too isn't it. She's just a girl doing a few war crimes no biggy.>lit a fucking city on fireWhen she's been pushed to insanity by the retarded plot that is Crimson Flower. Edelgard would do that kind of shit any day of the week. Hell, in part 1 she tells Byleth she'd be the kind of ruler who will sacrifice her own citizens
>>743274098LOOOOOOOORE WHO CARES ABOUT THE ACTUAL CHARACTERS HOW DOES THIS CHANGE THE LOOOOOOORE
>>743273491the dlc with them was unironically the best story part of fates
>>743273681>Edelgard: Should the one leading the people of the world be someone with humanity or a creature that can merely masquerade as a human at will? In the end, Seiros was victorious. The Immaculate One and her family then took control of Fódlan. I know this because that knowledge is passed down from emperor to emperor. And that is because the first emperor is the human who cooperated with Seiros, allowing humanity to be controlled in secret."Bro, that's Edelgard mixing in her own propaganda to make Byleth be a drone. She's not quoting Wilhelm verbatim. We've seen just how pitiful Rhea's control over Fodlan was, how the church actively moved its HQ from the capital of Adrestia to Garreg Mach and thus gave up additional political influence, etc. Heck, Macuil and Indech abandoned Rhea right after the war, Flayn was in a coma, and Seteth was off watching over Flayn wherever was kept during her coma. Rhea was alone and Seteth only came back to Garreg Mach some time after Byleth was born and Jeralt went into hiding with him/her.
>>743274098>loreshitteryNo I don't care about 3H references. I care about new characters, and he's an interesting new character.
>>743273840I know he said that, but in retrospect it doesn't make that much sense. Half of all mankind in Fodlan fought for Seiros, I doubt that half would have a problem with a story where 10 elites and Nemesis are the antiChrist. Plus the Church got to control the narrative; no printing press, controls books, etc.It's just a weird story.
Fuck Fabio, I know for a fact now I'm going to start seeing way more disabled characters in romhacks now thanks to him since retards think his inclusion is about "representation". As if all the lgbt shit in hacks wasn't already bad enough.
it would be so funny if he just turns out to be an ugly guy and not a shadowman like everyone assumes
>>743274132>>743274162???? Him being a slither is part of the character, brainletbros
>>743273840That part was known, Nemesis was still liked for doling out free superpowers to people willing to kill for him. The questionable part is the claim that Wilhelm believed the war was a race war to determine which species would rule Fodlan.
>>743274284Like they haven’t already been filled with cripples, niggers, and faggots?
>>743274370The latter two yes, but I don't remember playing a hack with a cripple in it.
>>743274335Wilhelm is a mystery box character that we should just not even talk about until Kusakihara reveals what's going on with him. Like how Three Hopes reveals he abdicated the throne to his son who he ended up outliving, and then mysteriously disappearing with Seiros
>>743273996Rhea killed the western church people because they had just instigated an attack on Garreg Mach that dragged civilians into it and got them killed as a distraction to steal holy remains and then kickstart a religious war by claiming they're favored by the goddess if they have said remains. As for torching Fhirdiad, yeah, that happened, but only after she went 100% insane in Crimson Flower. It's the furthest extreme she can go, but she certainly doesn't go there normally.
Fabio is cool because he approaches a 15 years old girl, asks her for a date and calls her partner a beast nigger at the same time Not because he has lazy eye
>>743273608Zelestia doko.
can someone post cai as nemesis again
>>743274105Snake wife.
>>743274335>The questionable part is the claim that Wilhelm believed the war was a race war to determine which species would rule Fodlan.Idk about wilhelm but the reason Nemesis is the King of Liberation is because humanity WAS ruled by Nabateans and they loved him because he freed them.Now, Nemesis was a bandit and a thug doing this purely for selfish reasons after being manipulated by Agarthans, but that doesn't change the reality that he did end up freeing humanity from being vassals of the immortal dragons lording over them >Q: Why did Nemesis attack Zanado?>Kusakihara: In that world, originally the race that could change into dragons, the so called citizens of Nabatea, were scattered about Fodlan in the different places/lands as governers (rulers) but, there were the citizens of Agartha who held hatred against the citizens of Nabatea… in other words, Those Who Slither in the Dark wanted to overturn this state of affairs (of the Nabateans as rulers) and as such, they devised schemes. They granted humans the technology to make powerful weapons from the corpses of the citizens of Nabatea
>>743274423Who knows if that Hopes line was even written by people with the full knowledge of Houses' story and details. Hopes is the same game that retcons a number of things regarding Monica and has Marianne present for the war at all despite her year at Garreg Mach with Byleth as her professor being vital for her mental health and survival.As for Wilhelm in Three Houses, I personally feel that he might be like an evil Marth. The history of Fodlan claims that Wilhelm was supposedly stopping people from seizing power and territory via violence by... seizing power and territory via violence. Wilhelm is a hypocritical asshole, and empires are consistently evil in Fire Emblem (true to reality), which says a lot about Wilhelm. He basically manipulated the Tiki equivalent for his own ends and his evil still casts a shadow over his Lucina equivalent by the time of Three Houses' main plot. Adrestia being an empire is colossal baggage to Rhea and Edelgard alike.
bro everytime i see 3h story discussion my eyes glaze over
>>743274423I doubt they'll ever reveal much about him because it would piss off waifufags who want Seiros to be their pure virgin waifu if it was revealed he was fucking her and that's how he got the Crest of Seiros
>>743274610Three Houses is consistent in acting like Fodlan needs to be a unified polity though. Every route ends with it, and Fodlan being divided in the first place happens because of Slither plots. I don't know, the whole thing is weird
>>743274635Luckily if these fags drag it out next thread mods will sage it.They hate the discourse as much as us.
>>743274610Wasn't Hopes written by the same people as Three Houses
>>743274684That's retarded and you're a dumbass. Seteth and Flayn also passed down their crests.
>>743274754Yes, which is why the cope surrounding it is especially hilarious
>>743274597That was the history at one distant point, but the world was barely just recovered at the time the Agarthans scouted and assisted Nemesis. The Nabateans were almost entirely in Zanado by then, and any other Nabateans were probably overseeing the efforts to restore the world. Even the revealed lyrics for God Shattering Star have a figure (presumably Nemesis) claiming that they're using the Relics to overthrow a supposed god -- one Nemesis had to have already killed to even have the Sword of the Creator. He was stringing people along and just doling out powers for more troops as desired. That was popular with some people, but he wasn't a true hero. The War of Heroes was humans vs. humans, the Nabateans were a non-factor by then save for the five hiding that they were even Nabateans. Wilhelm's line ruled Fodlan when all was said and done, and the church took steps to distance itself from absolute power, likely because Rhea believed only Sothis was the only non-human qualified to oversee humanity.
>>743274684Dude it's explained she gives her blood to pass her crest down with Jeralt.The cuck fantasies are just that.
>>743274610>Wilhelm is a hypocritical asshole, and empires are consistently evil in Fire Emblem (true to reality), which says a lot about WilhelmIt also says a lot about Seiros/Rhea, who was his number one supporter and who empowered him to unify the continent under their joint rulership of Adrestia and the Church, and even gave him her blood so he'd live longer and have her crest. The reason he abdicated for his son is because otherwise the emperor staying alive and in good health for centuries would draw too much attention and invite questions that are inconvenient for Nabateans to answer.Whether they were actually lovers or just a platonic Chrom/Robin dynamic duo doesn't really matter much but the fact Rhea literally did everything Edelgard is trying to do and more a thousand years ago with her greatx100 grandad is really funny. If she's actually her great grandmother we could get the most toxic oyakodon ever seen
>>743274837proof that cucks don't play the game and just watch porn.
>>743274883It's interesting though thinking she gave Jeralt blood as he was dying.Do you spasm and the crest is formed or you just wake up all fixed?
>>743273803>look at that chungus guys
>>743274718That's a convenient narrative each lord likes to tell themselves, but it isn't necessarily the best for Fodlan. Edelgard wants to outright conquer the north and presumably extort it if Lugh's rebellion and the play's script in the Shadow Library are any indication. Dimitri just takes over Adrestia to prevent any further attacks and thus end the war, and Claude's case is similar. Dimitri and Claude probably should restore the other two respective territories to autonomy at some point after the game's events, so them not doing so is scummy.>>743274754>>743274791Not as much of KT's influence was in the game's plot.
>>743274718Fodlan is a mid-sized island split into multiple warring and competing states, obviously unification is going to be portrayed as the obvious and natural conclusion for the continent going forward because that's what has happened to every similar island IRL and it's a Japanese company who both culturally enjoy narratives like the Romance of Three Kingdoms and Warring States period that have the unification of china/japan as positive end goals and depict warring neighbors conquering each other and changing hands negatively It makes sense for Fodlan to be a single country the same way Australia is.
>>743274684@grok, is this real?
>>743274984Several of the VW endings mention rebellions that are put down. It's funny because the way its written, Byleth would have gotten overthrown if not for Claude showing up with Almyran reinforcementsAlso that the Agarthans are STILL around despite losing all their leaders and their city being nuked
>>743274883In the game there's literally banned records in the Church's shadow library that discuss how Wilhelm and Seiros were openly described as lovers by contemporaries who were around for Fodlan's unification under the empire It's not just made up from nothing, Rhea had strong feelings for Wilhelm even if they weren't actually fucking
>>743274872Wilhelm probably found Rhea when she was a child wandering the wilderness and trying to find a stable home far from Nemesis' territory. Wilhelm probably manipulated her as a foster father. We don't know why he gave up the throne, considering (IIRC) that it wasn't a secret that those with Crests lived longer. Maybe he wanted to make sure his descendants, with less powerful Crests, would get a good amount of years on the throne. Edelgard potentially has her own Wilhelm figure in her father, who was driven by greed and atttempted to consolidate power, though his efforts failed and him losing power gave the Agarthans the opportunity they needed to abduct and experiment on his children.
>>743274118She could simply say that the remains were destroyed or lost. Or reveal that they're held in a heavily guarded tomb
>>743275176Notice revolts, plural. Byleth needing their Almyran fuccboi to bail them out of revolts is pretty funny, what a jobber
>>743275182Those are as canon as smut fics. The abyss books are stated to be unreliable.
>>743275176Why did they call Claude the master tactician and schemer again...?not even CF has open fucking rebellions needing foreign armies to show up as reinforcements and the Slithers are explicitly genocided thanks to Jeritza
>>743275196Where is it ever stated that Rhea was a child when the massacre happened? Like we've seen what she looked like a thousand years ago, identical
>>743275250>>743275176Damn is VW a bad end for Fodlan or something
>>743274118>part 1 she tells Byleth she'd be the kind of ruler who will sacrifice her own citizensWhere? I can't find it in her dialogue on the wiki and I don't recall hearing it at all
>>743275250I wish we saw Nader's daughter
>>743275258Sure, we don't know if they were actually fucking, but people around them THOUGHT they were fucking which is telling in and of itself
>>743274139The devs confirmed this btw. It's brought up in Three Hopes in a book and some of the DLC books in Abyss mention that history was rewritten and rumors that Wilhelm told the real story in a secret diary.
>>743275330https://fireemblem.fandom.com/wiki/Mutiny_in_the_Mist/Script#Event:_A_Harsh_Reality>Really, I'm just like Lonato. I, too, will be the sort of ruler who's willing to risk the lives of my citizens in service of a higher cause. It's not possible to change the world without sacrifice. Dying for the greater good is not a death in vain.Yet of course she would never give her life for that
>>743275182I think its probably closer to the Cyril relationship.Like Rhea entire thing is that she is lonely because of her mother dead (And at least says she has never been so happy since her mother died in S support)She can make close allies just fine but if unable to fill more personal attachments.Just doesn't feel like it fits her whole arc (Particularly if she had descendants).Also the library just like 3H is meant to generate even more discourse (Hence it also states the record could/couldn't be reliable. Like we know Edelgard library is also full of slither plots like Nemesis being a good giy according to Edelgard).We are meant to argue about it, thats its purpose.
>>743275196This is complete fanfic, Seiros was an adult when she led the elites into war to slaughter Nemesis and his elites, she wasn't a fucking child and headcanoning Wilhelm as her father figure is just cope from people who don't want to admit she had romantic tension with Wilhelm
>>743275176That ending is actually the only one to address how powerful Adrestia still is in both Silver Snow and Verdant Wind. Edelgard confides in Byleth (if the option to kill Claude is picked in CF) that she believes Adrestia will basically abandon her cause and back down if she's killed, so that detail has some poetic irony, though the Adrestian remnants likely don't particularly care for Edelgard's exact cause. It also addresses what on earth happens with Cleobulus ("Cornelia") in those routes. Claude really gets the closest thing to a thoroughly written, golden ending.
>>743275291Some Zelestia please?
>>743274139>Heck, Macuil and Indech abandoned Rhea right after the war,Due to ideological differences. In Macuils case, a strong disliking towards humans
>>743275396The books were placed there so annoying retards like you wouldn’t shit up every tavern with your drivel
>>743275176>>743275250It's funny because the only difference between VW and SS is that the capital of the united Fodlan is in Derdriu in VW, while it's unknown where it is in SS. So all that would be needed to stop these revolts is just putting the capital in a more neutral spot
>>743275421It's literally impossible to fight a war without anyone dying, that statement is complete milquetoast nothing burger. Dimitri and Claude are also people who'd agree with that sentiment, anyone willing to lead an army has to be willing to spend lives to achieve a goal. What, did you think all the regiments of soldiers you were crushing to chunky salsa with Meteor just sleep it off the next day?
>>743274139>Bro, that's Edelgard mixing in her own propaganda to make Byleth be a drone. She's not quoting Wilhelm verbatim.And you know that how?
>AIslop hours
>>743275593Dimitris line in that same chapter has him having a meltdown over having killed his own citizens and saying they should have found another way diplomatically. The shit Edelgard says is the kind of shit feral timeskip Dimitri would say.
>>743275301>>743275479The way Rhea speaks of Sothis suggests Rhea was quite young when it happened. Furthermore, Wilhelm found Rhea a full 42 years before the War of Heroes even began. Rhea could easily have been a kid during the genocide of the Nabateans and only fought in the War of Heroes after becoming an adult. Maybe she wasn't even an adult for the start of the war, she didn't kiss Nemesis until over 90 years had passed.>>743275406Which Three Hopes book said Wilhelm believed he was fighting a race war for supremacy? Wilhelm no doubt had the actual records of Nemesis being some prick who wasn't chosen by the goddess, and how Wilhelm actually got his Crest, but we don't get to read that ourselves, and Edelgard is mixing in convenient propaganda we can discern doesn't hold up when she speaks to Byleth in Crimson Flower Chapter 14.
>>743274431The Fhirdiad thing is too far,
>AIkino hours
>>743275741I see AIkino before and that aint it. This is some low quality SLOP. The previous one didn't even have pupils lol and the hands looked hideous
>>743275458The Imperial records describing nemesis favorably is accurate to what people in the war of heroes believed, he was genuinely beloved by humanity which is why even Seiros couldn't fabricate a bad reputation for him despite killing her family. Nabateans did rule over humanity and Nemesis did free them, even if it was really Slitherers killing with a borrowed knife and Nemesis never had any idealistic motivations and was just a hired thug after power
>>743274610>He basically manipulated the TikiHow do we know it wasn't the other way around?
>>743275530The point is more that they abandoned Rhea nonetheless and became hermits, with Macuil not even living in Fodlan. Rhea was alone, didn't believe she should actually oversee humanity either, and the church's actions took them away from the seat of power in Enbarr. Edelgard knows via Wilhelm that this wasn't a war of a goddess reining in someone she previously empowered to save Fodlan, but the part about Nabateans secretly ruling humanity is wishful thinking to make Byleth fight for her.
>>743275421She literally fought on the front lines of the war for 5 years you fucking moron
>>743275421Reminds me of this character who also sides with evil people (They razed a town before the events of the game) to achieve his supposed ideals and as a result a brutal 7 year civil war happens. But the difference is that he saw the error of his ways prioritizing his ideals over the well being of the people.The issue with Edelgard is that she is doing it out of trauma (Her route never tells you why she believes in meritocracy after all) and honestly does the game even give you the citizens perspective on her war? Do they want it at all? Don't even think many npcs say anything in the monastery.
>>743275619For starters, Edelgard gives no quotes at all, she just says she read Wilhelm's records. Second, we can tell the church was distancing itself from power via its actions and other things we learn in other routes. Third, why would Wilhelm help the five remaining Nabateans when he could have just allied with Nemesis as a pro-human alliance then betrayed him later for power? Wilhelm also could have just killed the remaining Nabateans after defeating Nemesis and his forces and claimed he realized the truth to take Nemesis' place without betraying his species.
>>743275848We don't, that fucking retard is seriously arguing Seiros was a small child when Sothis died despite being THE IMMACULATE ONE and being the oldest and most powerful of all of Sothis's children. He needs Rhea to be an innocent naive dindu nuffin child because the actual moral complexity of Seiros being the one who originally founded the Adrestian Empire and unified the continent through war and even gave her Crest to the Adrestian royal family which directly causes her own downfall later on is too much for him. No, clearly Wilhelm was the evil bad guy manipulating poor innocent loli rhea despite all evidence to the contrary.
>>743275562Amazing thanks!>>743275806No. The records of her library says he was opposing the church itself and thats what history the church is actually hiding by making him a hero.
>>743275740Rhea doesn't go 100% insane (without nukes) in the rest of the routes. It's like how Edelgard doesn't take extra Agarthan steroids to become the Hegemon Husk in routes outside of Crimson Flower.
DIE THREAD DIE
>>743275616>canonically the most fertile FE girl
>>743276082Typo, routes outside of Azure Moon.
>>743276116thread you ugly as fuck
>>743276116About 5 more threads in the queue before this one dies
>>743275976>Third, why would Wilhelm help the five remaining Nabateans when he could have just allied with Nemesis as a pro-human alliance then betrayed him later for power?Because Rhea was his Nabateans cocksleeve who gave him her blood and the Crest of Seiros in exchange for help establishing the Church of Seiros and unifying the continent under combined Adrestian and Church authority.What fucking fanfiction are you even talking about? The first person to start a war and successfully unify the fucking continent was Seiros herself, she doesn't need to side with Nemesis to do so
useless discussion slop
>>743275848>>743276020When talking to Edelgard mid-combat at Tailtean, Rhea brings up how she was basically broken as a person and at wit's end until she met Wilhelm. This suggests that Wilhelm was the one poised to manipulate her instead of vice versa.
>>743276224So much ass lapis.jpg
>>743276213What's your idea of useful discussion, putting slop at the end of every post?
>>743276116
>>743275976>Third, why would Wilhelm help the five remaining Nabateans when he could have just allied with Nemesis as a pro-human alliance then betrayed him later for power? Wilhelm also could have just killed the remaining Nabateans after defeating Nemesis and his forces and claimed he realized the truth to take Nemesis' place without betraying his species.We don't know anything from that period. Could just as well be that Nemesis was a rampaging bandit rapetard, and thus Wilhelm wouldn't consider an alliance against such a person, for either moral or even pragmatic reasons. I think the writers did not even think it throught in more detail - who Wilhelm was, what he wanted, why he allied with who he did, etc. He's just some dude who founded the Empire and that's it.
>>743276263Anything that isn't useless.All routes are treated as good so the discourse is pointless slop.
>>743276056>. The records of her library says he was opposing the church itself and thats what history the church is actually hidingThis is completely fucking true and factual. Seiros founded the Church of Seiros within the Adrestian Empire and with the help of Wilhelm made it the state religion and achieved continental unification, Nemesis and his Elites were against the church and the empire.When Nemesis lost the war, all of the Elites were executed and their families were taken into the Church and made Saints and the truth of the matter being that it was really a conflict about killing Nabateans to make relic weapons was entirely erased. The truth was covered up and those with Crests were ennobled and said to be blessed by the goddess.
>>743276263>complaining slop
>>743275941>(Her route never tells you why she believes in meritocracy after all)We see cases where people get offices they're inept or otherwise unsuited for because they have Crests. It's not like she pulled it out of her ass. Plus, actual promoting merit is rather self-evident, the issue is actually delivering on it.
>>743274684It might make Seiros out to be less good than we see in 3H.
>>743276334What a reductive way of thinking.>>743276345More of a question slop, really.
>>743276249
>>743276082Rhea goes 100% insane and tries to destroy the world in literally half the game's routes. You're giving her too much credit.
>>743276340>Nemesis and his Elites were against the church and the empire.But the church is only formed after the war ends.Also the hsitory was made so the descendant of the elites, who have no bear their forefathers sins, wouldn't be hunted down for the war.People Edelgard is actually supporting due to their narrative.People always say bring the truth when Edelgard makes up the Arianhrod plot this cementing her new world in a lie. But a bad lie
>>743276183Nemesis is doling out free superpowers too, anon. Why pick a fight with the guy doling those out to be a slave king when you can get the superpowers and not cuck out your species? The church was hand in hand with Adrestia, it started within Wilhelm's territory. It wasn't like a nation of its own at the time.
>>743276375But she does it for her trauma.If crests wete only born after meritocracy, she would still wage a war. Thats the issue of not giving her an actual reason like Yamato in Devil Survivor 2.
>>743276429Rhea goes conventionally insane in Crimson Flower. In Silver Snow she only goes berserk due to lingering effects of getting nuked twice. The latter is basically a radioactive mutation.
>>743276483Because blowjobs from a green haired dragon and worth going to war against a caveman swinging monster hunter bone weapons around, apparently
>>743276390Its not reductive.Its the actual aim of 3H. You are meant to find faults in any other lords.
