Fire Emblem Three Houses

These two are irrelevant. Claude is tacked in and Dimitri is filler. Both are shit tier lords, Ave Edelgard

Meh, I enjoyed BL and GD more than BE. BE maps are basic as fuck

>felix goes "Don't trust Dimitri! He's a boar!"
>But the timeskip happens and he's all like "Please sensei help him!"
Why is he so autistic?

Shit tier girl with shit tier motives

I’m playing Edelgard and recruited Felix, and now he’s just going “I told you about the fucking boar didn’t I” every time I talk to him

Oh I didn't recruit him in the Black Eagles, I figured it was easy enough already that I didn't need another monstrous unit. It's funny seeing his supports though since with Dedue he's all like "I'll kill your if you die in battle".

I wished we have a scene of him just punting Dimitri for his hallucinations and saying "GLENN WOULDN'T WANT YOUR OBSESSION WITH REVENGE YOU RETARDED BOAR". Or something along those lines. Sylvain might have done that if he wasn't so busy skirtchasing since they actually treat each other like good friends should

Felix is honestly great. He grew on me and really felt like if Rutger and Marisa had a baby and inherited their autism

What's Edelgard's problem with the Church? Is it just because of the crests?

In her route, it reveals that the slitherers were even behind the empire's crest experiments and all of the crest experiments were done by the empire.

Because Seiros is a crazy bitch.

>Implying Dimitri wouldn't join with raiding his stepsister's underwear

Claude >> Dimitri >>> Edelgard tbqh

Alright im playing BL route, what master class should i make everyone?? What master classes did you end up picking for everyone?

Dimitri should always be in his Great Lord class. Don't change him unless you wanna go meme build and make him into a dancer. I had Dedue into War Master and Felix as mortal Savant.

BL units pretty much promote themselves user
just look at their hidden talents and base stats and skills and it should be obvious

Ingrid was Falcon Knight, Dorothea was Gremory, Sylvain was just stuck as paladin

So i can teach anyone to be a dancer? Do everyone get a unique outfit or a generic one?

Attached: 1564637170145.png (486x325, 106K)

All of them get generic base outfits but Dimitri's look particularly hilarious

Attached: 1564484119338.jpg (1280x720, 269K)

I love how he is just relentless with Dimitri. Basically just calling him a pussy ass bitch for letting his traumas get the better of him instead of repressing them like everyone else

Yeah. I wish he punted him though to make him actually snap back to reality. I hate how it has to be Byleth to snap him out his funk when he has his friends around him who can all snap him out in their own ways.

Ahahah, he looks dead inside. I'm making this dude into a dancer in my Blue Lions run

I have a general idea for most of them only mercedes and Annette im not sure for

Keep bullying the boar!

What carries over for NG+? Does professor level or the saint statues carry over?

Kek

Attached: 1564664056188.png (500x479, 105K)

Both I believe

Why did Felix kill his dad in the Black Eagles route if you recruited him?

Got spoiled about what kind of fucked up shit Dimitri has to fight in his route and it's lovely.

It's honestly my favourite final boss. Not even Rhea felt that good to defeat

Speaking of that, how long is an average playthrough of a route?

I mean, many fodlan people are kinda brainwashed by the Church so it makes sense that they hesitate to join Edelgard at the beginning.

For me at least is around 45 hours after completing every possible paralogue and side quests.

You have the shittiest of taste.

>45 hours
Holy hell this game is longer than I expected

Lysithea is honestly so cute, I love both her designs

Attached: 1564665394672.png (512x512, 136K)

Can I increase difficulty on ng+?
Started on normal and it seems way too easy so far (ch6).
The most interesting part so far was stealing seal from DK right before ending the map objective.

I think so. I hope Lunatic (maddening) and Infernal drops soon. I heard their excuse for not having it right is testing to make the A.I and enemies harder to deal with without having just inflating their stats

The game gets a bit more difficult after the timeskip but it's mostly because of the surprise effect of having to fight lots of upgraded ennemies, and I guess you can change difficulty for a ng+

What is the best master class for Sylvain and Mercedes?

Rodrigue (Felix's dad) was true to the Kingdom and Dimitri.

He also gave all the praise to his now dead eldest son who died protecting the former King (Dimitri's dad).

So basically Felix thinks his dad is a fucking dick and if he is on black eagles then he has to fight his dad eventually.

Does the speed stat ONLY affect avoidance or does it affect your attack speed as well?

Attached: B6DA0C64-70F1-4D91-A638-D9C4BBB22E02.jpg (909x969, 84K)

Dark Knight and Holy Knight respectively

dark knight and grimoire or whatever the faith reason class was called

I see

Avoid and doubles. If you have 4 more speed than them you get a second attack

>Annette and Bernadetta are the only people Felix isn't mean to
What great taste

It took me 75 hours to complete Black Eagles and Church route. They really weren't lying when they said the game is pretty long

Looking forward to completing it then

Dimitri's route doesn't have many mages to fight until Adrestia.

Felix is surprisingly bros with Sylvain.

Sylvain is a bro to everyone. Nice to Dedue too and teases Dimitri like good friends should

Why does ingrid look so much better before timeskip

Is Falcon Knight the best Master Class for Ingrid?

Because you like long hair?
Yes. Frozen Lance makes her into a monster too

Should I invest in iron/steel weapons at the start of the game, or are training weapons worth the cheaper price?

It's more of a writer bias. Huber is somewhat nice to Bernie as well.

>He has hallucinations about his dead family and friends all telling them why he survived instead of them
>Dimitri after seeing Byleth again and he thinks that Byleth is just a hallucination too
>Seeing his backstory with Edelgard
>Find out he hasn't tasted anything since his family and friends died

You can upgrade weapons in the blacksmith eventually.

Don't use training items unless that person has like a D in that skill.

Absolutely

>He doesn't have a favourite food
>He doesn't comment how the tea tastes during tea time instead just comments how good it smells
>He mimicks other people's reaction of the food
>He occasionally comments that the food reminds him of his childhood (when he can still taste)
>He eats plants among the weeds because he doesn't know any better about how they taste

Stop making teachers cry Dimitri

Is that Ellen-chan the English teacher?

Yes

>Don't use training items
Training items are unironically the best weapons in the game since it gives you a better chance of doubling enemies.

Why is everyone turning Dimitri into dancer? Even Nips are doing it now because they saw retards from West doing that shit. Give that man a break.

Brave weapons are a joke in this game too. Seriously who the hell decided to that they're low weight?

Because it's funny to see him kill everything while still a dancer

Dimitri is canon as well as the most logical choice.
Claude is extra scenario.
Edelgard is a what if joke choice.

Who's the best boy from each house?

Name one reason not to do it.

Blame Felix.
I'm pretty sure he is the one who started thing whole thing.

Black Eagles - Ferdinand (not much competition to be honest)
Blue Lions - Three way tie between Felix, Dimitri and Sylvain
Golden Deer - Undoubtedly Lorenz

I hate how she sounds like she's retarded in Japanese/doesn't know how to speak

She sounds like that in English too

Dimitri's route was the best for me. His route was filled with great moments

Holy Tomb, Capital and Final boss was pure kino

When do I recruit gatekeeper-kun? He's such a good bro

Rhea and Thales were written off though.

Why is Sothis Spine Sword so shit compared to Catherine's Brave Relic?

>Thales
You kill him in Blue Lions but unknowingly. Also because Rhea doesn't go crazy

think the last thread died but anyone wanna fill me in

Yeah basically they are non-character in this route, it could have been much better if they actually did something relevant.

Lysithea bias. That little nuke can also use Thunderbrand.

Yeah, you should get a number gifts for them

True, I wish I also fought against Nemesis and Rhea in Blue Lions

Wait for the Silver Wolf dlc, it'll flesh out Edelgard's route as the canon one

I picked yellow team because Claude seemed like better fun than the other two nerds. I'm up to their worlds equivalent of January in the game currently so dunno if anything big happens later but I like Claude so far.

I hate how true this is

Everyone has a dedicated model in 3H

It’s not like Awakening/Fates

everyone's endings working out just fine isn't very good writing. At least FNV's endings had some losers no matter what

They said DLC isn't tied to the main story. Unless Edelgard vs Arundel can be considered as something apart from the main story I don't see it happening.

I'm thinking this is gonna be about Empire's Elite assassins who are Black Fang expies and have been brainwashed by Slitherers and you have to defeat them .

Dedue and Dimitri's support is so fucking good

Can you romance Raphael and does he remain thicc with a barely-holding-on shirt after the timeskip?

>romance Raphael
You can romance everyone in this game

Imagine playing the dub and missing out on Mercedes glorious ara ara
Imagine playing dub and having to sit through Mercedes cringey MLP voice and Ingrid's robotic delivery

I'm playing in dub because Dimitri, Felix and Sylvain don't sound monotone

All I’ve heard anyone say about BE route is it’s short DLC bait

Dimitri and Felix are good in the dub
Sylvain is way worse and sounds amateur at times

Because her character is motherly

Isn't she 22?

The supports are really long in this game

It really shows with his shit acting

I guess her birthday had passed in my game, so when I looked at her roster page it said 23
But yeah, 22 to start

>edelgard is basically Griffith
>dmitri goes nuclear

Can someone give me a vague description of Claude’s route and it’s appeal? I’ve heard basically no one talk about him

Seiros was an asshole who committed genocide on the slither's ancestors. The remnants were pissed, desecrated Sothis' corpse and made the sword of creation which Nemesis then used to slaughter the goddess' children and get even more crests. When Nemesis was killed, Seiros was fuck angry and decided to make a religion honoring her mother and placing importance on the crests as revenge against humanity. Edelgard is right that the current age places too much importance on crests. The church is the one who pushes the importance of crests and by getting rid of them, then humanity can actually move forward.

Absolutely correct opinion.

Just got my copy today my dudes. Gonna play the shit out of this one.

BEagles or Golden Deer first?

Theyre the bystanders. People are calling it the "lore" route but that doesnt really stick imo.

And the route goes south towards the end storywise. Without spoilers, it has the most bullshit and aspull writing towards the last chapters.

By skipping the living shit out of it

Eagles. They have the shortest route and the best to start out

>But his story line is the canon story line,
there's no such thing as a canon story line user

Sweet. What about the second half of the question?

Its only like two chapters shorter and I wouldnt say that a route that is generally considered the bonus route is the best to start out.

Its certainly the most popular given the in-game statistics but having finished it, I wouldn't recommend it as astarter really

Edelgard is the only one who actually does away with the class system though, isn't she? That's some improvement at least. Also, unifying the content as an Empire is way cooler than anything else desu

>Evil route is the canon route
Thanks ISIS

Eagles

BL
BE
GD
Church
In that order if you want the biggest effect on things.

Is Lysithea's support broken? I've had her on B since chapter 6 or so and i can't reach A no matter what i do. I've been giving her every month like 10 gifts or some shit but nothing happens. I have every other girl on A so far despite barely interacting with anyone. This is fucking stupid.

>just finished the Eagles' path

Instead of 3 separate factions it should have been everyone together in a Game of Thrones type of power struggle.

>When she goes crazy
God that's great

But Game of Thrones had 5 separate factions fighting each other?

>Those hips.
When's the porn?

Yes, yes, no.

But I'm saving Blue Lions for the 3rd or last playthrough since I'm most interested in them

So when’s the dlc where we can follow the adventures of gate keeper?

I thought it would be more of a unified school setting with a route choice before the timeskip. Would have made me care more about the other two leaders more since as it is now I’ve barely seen them at school and don’t give a shit if they die

Yeah, same. The route choice at the start isn't bad, since you immediately get your basic set of units and have the time to improve them, but they really should've had the other house leaders at least show up on more occasions in the first part.

>no straining shirt with glimpses of skin

Supports are timegated, you can’t support until a certain chapter. Usually it’s the timeskip, but I had some that were for other random chapters as well

She blames the crests - which the Church is cool with.

Its really a shitty crusade. My own parents tortured me because I didn't have the good boy powers.

So now I must destroy everyone who stands for them and make my own crests (wtf why).

So, why right after joining Edelgard Byleth literally becomes uncharacter without any personality?

Where do I find the seals for the master certification exams ?

That's every route.

So what is Dimitri's personality? I keep seeing people say his compassion and kindness wrecked him, but I do not really get it.

His good heart lead him to be misguided and the whole reason he becomes a revenge-crazed lunatic

Caring young lad mindbroken by a cruel world

Fucking retard

Who's Anna ?

When does she start selling them?

Time skip. I think you can get one before then from a chest or from online peeps selling them.

Since the second you help her open shop, if you already need them then more likely you could do it few months ago

You can only quad if you double with a weapon that already doubles, eg brave or gauntlets

Kinda weird she got mad at Tomas for experimenting on people though. She clearly doesn't give a fuck.

She definitely believes that the ends justifies the means. If it means an everlasting peace, then she'll make it so. She does try not to get innocents involved.

>Kinda weird she got mad at Tomas for experimenting on people though
She didn't and just pretended to make you join her. She's sociopath who lacks any empathy towards other people

How the FUCK am I supposed to instruct MYSELF in faith to get that hidden talent

It’s not a strength but you can’t really go wrong doing that. Close counter is relatively early and removes the main weakness of bows. The only downside really is bow knight has the shittiest class growths in the game, like horrendously bad if Serene’s forest didn’t fuck up and forget a few numbers.

Have the cakes teach you how to be faithful

mounted classes seem to generally give up higher stat growths in exchange for their movement

His friends were kinda shitty and kinda keep him at arms length the moment they should be there for him.

Rhea and Manuela can teach you, plus you can get some from doing the choir. Also, go monk class and just cast faith spells if you want.

meant for

Dimitri more gay then Claude actually

Nah, Sylvain on Dimitri's route does it as well as Dimitri setting up a better form of government. When Dimitri is chill after calming the fuck down he would most likely follow what Sylvain does. The crest issue is resolved as well if you recruit Hannamen and you always should since it is only a level requirement. It is solved on every route basically.

Is it too late to grow another stat? i just finished chapter 6

I mean yeah, I’d expect a slight drop. But it’s war master’s 70% vs bow knights 10%, it’s pretty ridiculous. Even the mounted mages are 50%, which is slightly higher than Gremory.

I'm doing GD route, rate my final class choices and give me advice:
>Byleth, Ignatz, Shamir and Leonie - Bow Knight
>Marianne - Dancer
>Claude and Cyril - Wyvern Lord
>Lorenz - Dark Knight
>Raphael and Felix - War Masters
>Manuela - Mortal Savant or Holy Knight
>Catherine - Falcon Knight
>Dorothea and Lysithea - Gremory or Savant for Dorothea
>Hilda - Great Knight
I also got Flayn and Hanneman but I have no idea what to do with them. Flayn I might be stuck making another Gremory and Hanneman I just have no idea. Why'd they make him like Bows and Reason if non of the end game classes favor both of those at once? Maybe make him another Dark Knight?

Not really
She get called out by her own house members if you recruit them with "How meritocracy would work if you reward only loyal people instead of capable ones"
she goes full I kill you because you don't understand

It’s never too late, hell early game is nothing compared to how much you can grow bylethe post time skip when you have a shit ton of professor points and everyone you recruit turns into a tutor

If you like Edelgard play BL since it goes into her and Dimitri's past some more and you find things out about her that you do not find out in her route.

How to cheese the game early and get gold?

It is a good kid who wants to do his best to help people but the world fucks him over hardcore and he loses his mind for a little while.

I love Sothis' theme, it's pretty great

I miss Nichibros.

They really should’ve locked people to one a rank or something if they’re going to make some of them as romantic as they are. My boy Lorenz has a harem now because of it.

Free battles or farming tournaments are your best bet for money. Make sure you walk on as much red stains as possible to get free weapons to sell/free up repair costs. Also you can go fishing and hope for gold or purple shadows.

Yeah almost every A support the BE characters have with each other has a romantic tinge to it, even Hubert's. Fucking horny rabbits

She's a lazy whore. Literally.

Dorothea through sheer force of numbers. Two genders > one

When i recruited her i like that too. Bitch it's build to be a speedy warrior that does big dong damage

The one with his torture monologue or the Kill them all speech?

Is mommys support good?

The one where you reunite with all your students at the ruined monastery

She finally gets over her mommy obsession and sees Byleth as their own person. Also, S ranking her is the only way to have her survive the Church route.

It's time to hunt rats one I think
I thought about is as a pure kino too, especially start where it's just two of you against army
BE reunion felt soulless after that

Is unit permadeath better? WIll they be gone together if they die on any map at all? Doesn't it kind of encourage me to just reload the battle if I lose anyone?

Beagles get two routes

Edelgard's was the sweetest, she is the one who has the most affection for the MC after all. But I agree that the reunion with the BL students was more inspired.

Attached: 1563797842983.jpg (1280x720, 165K)

>she is the one who has the most affection for the MC
You really didn't understood her character at all, huh.
She's the only character in game who has same m/f supports, she's just like Rhea saw MC as a tool, not real person
Her not understanding why didn't you join her in church route and being mad only proves it

>Marianne - Dancer
Why do this? She is a great healer and has silence to boot she will be using faith magic most turns so having her a dancer would be a waste. I would say turn Dorothea or Lysithea into a dancer allows them to keep using magic having also allows them to dance for units if no enemies are nearby. Marianne also makes a great holy knight with boons in both riding and lance (Hidden talent)

You've clearly never played her route

Is there a reason to recruit from the other houses or will I be fine for each route with just those units? Feels like it'll be a hassle to recruit and honestly I don't want the game to feel too samey on each route if I'm just recruiting all the same people anyway.

>Bro why was obi wan mad at Anakin for joining the sith???? Clearly Anakin was only seen as a tool

Usually doesn't hurt to recruit at least one or two people to fill out your team where you're lacking.

Basically just a way to get more units, and get the students that you actually like, but they are from other houses and save them from their demise
You can just go full “canon” if you like. Its the selling point of this game. You can do (almost) anything with your squad

you're probably not going to be able to recruit everyone possible unless you specifically aim for it. But it does help for variety so you're not just stuck with your original house+church units

Prevents you from fighting and killing them
Gives new dialogues on maps and in monastery post time skip
For example if you didn't recruit berny then Edelgard will sacrifice her to lure you in the trap, double points for her being scared to even fight you

Some other recomendations is to make Felix a Mortal Savant instead of a war master, he can get black magic crit +10 from his hidden talent and has access to Thoron probably the best spell in the game, but also has incredibly speed and makes a great early game thief unit.

Manuela I don't normally use but since you only have one other healer i'd say go Holy knight don't know how good she is at that class to be honest. (Honestly even a bishop is ok as all she'll be doing is healing).

I usually run Holy knight Byleth as with his high strength growth he can easily double with Noseforatu late game, mid game i have him go Paladin so it goes into holy knight quite well, he also gets White Magic Avoid +20 so he'll be dodging a lot with that and Aura is a dirty crit attack.

At the end of the day it's up to you how you play.

>For example if you didn't recruit berny then Edelgard will sacrifice her to lure you in the trap, double points for her being scared to even fight you
Holy shit fuck that bitch.

Good try, but Edelgard entire motivation is "from my point of view ... is evil"

The ends justify the means

We all do user

I'll probably just not recruit anyone. Seems like the "pure" canon way for each of the routes. Game seems pretty piss easy so far anyway.

Im kinda sad there’s no eugenic/breeding program subplot to create the ultimate human with all the crests
Its cliche, but its always fun, even as just a side-story/optional boss

The church and their dragon bitch goddess are literally evil and only want to torture humanity. Nemesis told their god to fuck off and killed her, to which they in turn used the crests to make humanity dependent slaves to their will.

Nemesis was unironically the true hero of humanity and BE route is his succession

Recruit people who have supports with the route's lord so you can see the unique supports (IE Marianne and Raphael in BL, Petra in GD, Lysithea in BE)

Raphael’s dialogues about Claude’s death broke my heart
Dimitri and Marianne curing each others was absolutely great

No, they said the DLC isn't set after the main story. It won't be post-game or a new ending, but might very well be a new route.

It'll probably be the three houses coming together in a BE style route but with less genocide and more church killing

I still prefer a prequel of sort, maybe Jeralt’s life til the birth of Byleth, or the War of Heroes
The endings are great on its own alr, no need for a Golden ending

that's basically Lysithea

So you didn't even played route you talk about, huh.
It literally points out that church isn't evil, Rhea just crazy, but on the average church is the least corrupt and more helpful force to average person on entire continent
Also crests needed to fuck up with humans, not enslave them. And reason why humans use them? Not church but because shit is actually helpful
Funny how you mixed facts with Edelgard propaganda

>Shall we go rat hunting? Don't let a single one of these vermin escape!
That was so fucking cool, the best part was that at least in my case, Byleth and Dimitri were legitimately holding the line all ny themselves. I seriously think the two of us alone could have taken the map. Of course, seeing all the BL come back with their new designs was fantastic too

Again, read the lore.
Their god tried to enslave humanity, Nemesis killed them, and the direct line has been bitter ever since. Not all people in the church are evil, but the very foundation of it is to oppress, and that was the intention of the crests as well
You can not reform what is inherently designed to be broken

>Claude says multiple times he agrees with Edelgard about the church and crests he just doesn't agree with her solution
>"Nah bro see the church ain't evil it's good!"
Blue cucks and church cucks fuck off

Reformation works fine in BL and GD routes though

The church twisted the lore of Nemesis and the other bandits into heroes so that people would want to pass on and treasure crests. The reason for the current state of the world was shaped by the church. The church itself isn't evil but Rhea and her teachings are purposefully holding humanity back.

Is anyone else having controller problems in the School?
It seems to stutter at times and basically make Byleth jitter walk?

>first time playing a FE game
>go Blood Eagle route, Normal/Classic, thinking when characters die they actually DIE
>get to part 2 and find out all the characters I've lost aren't really DEAD because they're still walking around the monastery for some fucking reason
>get to the final battle, (told Edge Lord to fuck off and then killed her), but I only had three characters survive up to that point, so it's just Byleth, Catherine, and Cyril
>Cyril dies to damage sponge dragon because he's fucking worthless, even in Master rank
>marry Catherine, but Rhea dies because I didn't bother getting her to S rank
How bad did I fuck up? Should I start BE again to side with Edel or see if I can save Rhea, or move onto another house?

In the near future, not necessarily long term.
I mean in the same vein you could say the French Revolution worked fine in France. Though you have to ask "which one?"

yep it happens sometimes

The French revolution was a catastrophe that did jack squat. They eventually put another king back on the throne because French people are just retarded that way.

Has the devs said anything about it? It seemed to work better when I used my joycons instead of the pro.

But that's the point.
Every revolution in France seemed great for a few years until shit fell apart yet again time and time again.
BL and GD hope that maybe the church with some reformations will be good, but its inherent design is such to hold humanity back.

You just went for the church route, so yeah
Have fun replaying that route (but side with Ega instead) and the other 2 routes
I would recommend starting another house, so you dont have to do almost the ame thing again just to start the “true” Eagle route

Yes, and?
But even in church and BL route everyone agrees that changes needed and do exactly that, bonus point for Rhea herself after being cured from madness starting fixing things
I really fail to see your point.

>not necessarily long term
But you get epilogues with the "long term", as in peace and how they remember them as the leaders who brought that peace to their land.

Man it's hard to choose a House. Deers seem chill, Lions look bland as fuck and Eagles seem alright but I don't like their units as much as the Deers.

>"I gave her a dagger my dude"
>Cue the Flame Emperor dropping a dagger one cutscene later

>but its inherent design is such to hold humanity back
If you just tell Rhea to fuck off the church is ironically a well meaning organization that has done a ton of good in the continent.
The problem with it is exclusively Rhea and Seiros, that's all.

You have to hope for the best in those routes that something designed to oppress humanity into servitude can ultimately be fixed into something beneficial.
If you go solely off of the 'what happens next' stuff in the ending then no one has a bad route, since Edelgard's plan works in her route and the caste system is reformed with artificial crests being designed to benefit only humanity etc.

>Find out he hasn't tasted anything since his family and friends died
What?

Yeah, you get the same for BE talking about Edelgard bringing long term peace.

The slitherins felt really half-assed. It's probably something along the lines of , but I hope it's not a golden ending and is more about political compromise where you might not prevail against the church or Nemesis but can take out the dubstep party and let the countries of Fodlan co-exist peacefully.

But french revolution is more comparable to BE route
Especially with Edelgard making Ferdinand prime minister and giving not crests to loyal people instead of capable ones, in fucking "meritocracy", you just know that shit will go down soon
While BL and GD routes are more like Britain small changes that lead to greatness

don't you deal with them in the Golden Deers route?

Doesn't Edelgard pull out a dagger in the very first cutscene where Byleth saves her? You know, despite having an axe all the time both before and after that point?

I like to think that the dagger she uses to defend herself at the beginning when Byleth gets axed is one Dimitri gave her.

Britain had an outright civil war in the transition from monarchy to constitutional monarchy

>that something designed to oppress humanity into servitude can ultimately be fixed into something beneficial.
Why not? Rhea is solely responsible for that stuff, literally no one else within the church is. You get rid of her and the church is halfway fixed.

Don't let first impressions fool you, there are a LOT of characters that are surprisingly endearing, especially on the Eagles. I thought I'd hate Hubert, Linhardt, and Caspar and I ended up liking all of them a lot.

My speed will surely grant me the advantage.

The church is the cause of just about everything going wrong. From them emphasizing how important crests are, the nobility system was placed as well as not treading far from the church's teachings. Remember, Seiros founded the church and it's teachings as one last way to screw over humanity.

>The slitherins felt really half-assed
Only Edelgard routes where she somehow deals with icbm launching mages offscreen without any problem
At least in BL route you kill guy while saving Claude

What I'm struggling the most with is that while I think Claude and the Deers look the neatest they also look like they could turn out to be third wheels to the two other houses. Is their story at least equal to the two other houses?

You can save Claude in BE as well.

Wow, did you even play her route ? Their relationship is very progressive, at first she sees Byleth as a nuisance for her plan since he's close to Rhea. But little by little she starts wishing that he was at her side since he's the sole person she can depends on and opens up a bit. She begins leaking her plan to him but then she realizes that he is a blood relative of Rhea and she abandons all hope to get him side with her. So she "betrays" him but Byleth still decides to protect her against the Church, she is moved by it as she finally finds someone who genuinely cares about her. From that point she begins cherishing him, all of this is explained by her in her route lol.

they're more about the backstory and DEEP LORE than the main conflict

Some user said that there's something you can download on Dark Umbra if you've got a hacked Switch which allows you to unlock the dummied out Maddening mode. Allegedly the AI is considerably better, but I'll admit I haven't gone out of my way to verify it for myself so take it with a huge grain of salt.

>Every revolution in France seemed great for a few years
No they didn't. They were basically disasters from the very start.

It would be nice to have a lunatic you don't have to just luckshit your way through level ups and crits.
Infernal they can do whatever since I don't care about infernal

Pretty sure all evil came from empire though, with illegal crests experiments and shit
Nobles always will oppress people, crests just another way to become important
I sait it already that crests were to fuck up with people when some Edelgard fanboy kept screaming about slavery, not sure why are you writing it again

And, again, that's all Rhea and Seiros, just get rid of them and properly fix its teaching, which is something every single non BE route does.
The church, at its base, is good and is only the top people the ones fucking with it.

If there's a third wheel it's definitely the Deers. They focus more on the fluff and the world itself rather than the actual plot. Lions are the plot and the Eagles are 90% of the plot from a different perspective.

Hm so I really should pick Eagles or Lions then.

You don't kill evil cult leader

Quit dreaming. We all know it's just gonna be
>Swimsuit level
>Swimsuit outfit
>Festival Map with unique dialogue
>Side map with Lucina because Lucina

Deer is for moralfags
Lion is for boring fuckers
Eagle is for fedoras and edgelords

You can't reason with most of these people. I'm honestly convinced the majority of anti-Edelgard posters are literal brainlets that don't actually pay attention to anything in this game, or glossed over the plot of her route at best.

So who's the death knight? Is it really that dude who they said it was? Why didn't we get more info on him?

Dedue's ending in Deers is kino

Crests and the caste system were designed by the church and Seiros to oppress humanity. Additionally the church does nothing to intervene from smaller conflicts, only conflicts which might threaten them.

The whole golden deer house was soured for me when I played the three way battle at Grondor as the blue lions and found out the only reason Claude's antagonistic is because the game forced him to be and not because he was pulling some sneaky shit.
>Let's just hang out and see what happens.
>5 turns later
>Oh damn this battle is pretty chaotic, better kill all of them just to be sure.
It really left a bad taste in my mouth at how completely irrelevant Claude is.

Yeah it's Jeritza.
If you have Mercedes and Caspar recruited you unlock a paralogue where they go confront him and Mercedes confirms it's her brother as well.

I definitely get the feeling the BEagle route is unfinished

So uh does he try to kill her too? Or is he a bit more...chill since it's his sister.

>t. Caspar as he switched to Gauntlets

How so?
You defeat the gods and create a new empire without crests or the caste system. It feels complete to me

We'll get all that first but we know the last DLC is "story content" and has a silver wolf logo, it's not gonna be some pre-established fanservice shenanigans.

The empire and those slither in the dark are two different associations. Those slither in the dark are running things in the dark, and considering that they managed to kill 10 royal children in experiments, then they almost have complete control. Those who slither in the dark are the ones running the experiments and shit, Lysithea mentions it.

So she starts seeing you as useful tool, nothing more
As I said church route showed it best, she literally angry because you are real person and have feeling and interests
Bonus points that if you go her route MC loses all personality and becomes yesman, the only route where it happens

>You didn't recruit Caspar and Mercedes? Imao enjoy never seeing the Black Knight expy ever again.
Why was Caspar even related to that chapter?

It literally is. The ending cutscene sets up a battle with the REAL enemy that we never see, let alone get to fight. This is the reason everyone thinks the DLC will be expanding the Black Eagle route.

>without crests
user

Important scenes that I felt like should've been animated cutscenes are just stills, it's shorter, we didn't get to massacre the slitherers

Silver Wolf is the name of the company that they buy the swimsuits from. Silver Wolf Co. In the Dlc you try on the swimsuits when their rival company Gold Vampires Co attacks to steal trade documents.

What is that from again

No, she sees you as someone that she thought would never understand her, but when you do, she loves you (either platonically or romantically depending on supports)
Play her route you fucking autist

I feel like it's more like she was trying to drag you into her side since the beginning which is why she kept going "imagine if shit happens with all these injustices in the world?" only to realize how much a meotional crutch your self insert is to her.

Literally everyone's ending has a paragraph that said "They then dealt with those who slither in the dark before living happily ever after".

What is the one unit you hate the personnality the most
mine must be caspar

Everyone seems to say Dorothea should be a Gremory or a Dancer, without any consensus. I'm BE, which should I pick?

Human made crests, not crests designed to sap out human life force

You know what else was created to oppress humanity? Swords!

Some of the writing with Claude is really kind of forced
For example in Dimitri's path, both he and Claude are fighting Edelgard. Logically they should team up against her and that's even what Dimitri says but then all the Messengers somehow completely fail to arrive and Claude just assumed Dimitri turned on him and attacks him.
And yet there's another point where he waits for Dimitri to save him.

There's honestly a ton of contrivances mostly against BL and GD to keep the war a three-way and hide the fact that Edelgard is the instigator of 90% of the shit in the game. If you replaced Dimitri with say Ephraim then the plot would just be BL logically cutting a swath to GD, teaming everyone up, and slaying the shit out of Edelgard no issues.

He doesn't engage them on the map unless you initiate. He's a bit more chill but still wants to kill shit. After the fight he gives her a crest relic to protect her until he can kill her himself, which she jokingly replies that he won't be able to because she has the relic now. He also gives them his Scythe and asks you to protect her until, again, he can kill her.

Someone please answer me

You mean easily fixable crests that aren't exclusively controlled by the empire.

Depends how hard she fucks up people right now. If she's outputting a good amount of damage go gremory. If she got Mag/Spd fucked go Dancer
Ferd is a better dancer cause he's useless otherwise.

Caspar grew on me through supports, sorta like how Asta grows as a character in BC. They're both really annoying at first though

DLC is confirmed to not affect the main story though.
I'm pretty sure it was done on purpose so you'd have to play all the routes to get the full picture.

>Easily fixable
Okay goy keep believing that

It's the same, Yes, Yes. There's a new time rewind feature you can abuse though so you don't have to restart the whole map, you can rewind to any previous action

That's some weird shit. He just being tsundere?

Took me 50 hours to do the church route. Currently working on the GD route.

devs occasionally lie and I don't think anyone would be offended if they turn out to be lying about this

Thanks user, Doro has been fucking shit up but she's my primary support with Byleth so that might be biased. Ferd is fucking absolute garbage though so I guess making him a dancer is risk free at this point. I know the weapon triangle is no more but it really sucks watching him be outperformed by a random generic swordsman.

I wonder what happens for the reunion if you make everyone die.

Crest AIDS gets fixed in every route, though

Caspar brings Bernadette out of her shell. He's fun. Lindhart is boring as fuck.

I think if any student dies before the time skip they're still around but can't be used, but once the time skip happens they don't show up.
Time skip though is fair game it seems. If a unit dies they die.

I picked black eagles but after reading the threads should i just switch over to golden deers? I'm starting to like everyone over there more anyway, im only on 6/29 so not that far.

Yeah and in BE route everyone lives happily ever after.
If you just want to go on the little epilogue writing we can't even have this discussion because every route says everything gets fixed

Not him, but its technically the "bonus" route of the game, so the stills fit fine to me, as well as not ending the slitherers.

But from a story and MC and character pov it feels the most elaborate to me.

And its only like 2 chapters shorter, so meh.

Why would you drop a route in a game with 4 distinct and interesting stories?

Can a character who used to be thief class still pick locks after progressing to a different class? eg thief to sword master?

Yeah Ferd is a coinflip and the most use you'll get out of him aside from dancing is poking people for his Seal spd to proc

Only pussies start over.

GD is objectively the best to start with because it gives you the most understanding of the world and character motivations.

I haven't gotten to that part so I dunno, but my guess is that it has to do with the massacre of that one house long ago.

im going to do it over again, i just don't really want to start with a "are we the baddies" route first.
i guess i'll stick with it then

>Shitting on my boy Ferdinand
I brought him over to the Blue Lions, which gave me my best paladin. Sylvain got totally fucked speed wise, while Ferdinand matches his huge strength and defense while also being fast as fuck. He's easily one of my best units and I always take him into a map.
Not to mention, it's pure kino to take him into Dimitri's route. Edlegard has his father assassinated and his family assets seized, so he goes into exile with a few loyal servants until he meets back up with you at the monastery. He says he couldn't stomach being Edelgard's puppet Prime Minister and swears to help you defeat her

>everyones arguing what house/route they like more
>I dont give a shit and just wanna talk about the actual strategy aspect of the game and want anons to enable me here
Can we at least talk about how this is the most casualized FE to date and even if not, still a firm #2, as well as botching animations, balance by completely overpowering characters in numerous ways and handholding the player way too much?

I'm certain that once the initial hype dies down and people put the characters to rest and move on, this game will be rated 6/10, 7/10 at best.

Well MY boy Ferdinand only gets RES boosts so he might as well be a Pegasus knight without the speed

Learn more about Edelguard. That's exactly what her childhood was.

>"are we the baddies" route first.
Its not really like that, in every route you're the one who's "right", even in that one.

But despite calling you a pussy, I dont think Edel's route is a good fist one, because of the bonus route character it has. You can still do church with that playthrough tho, just dont follow her.

My Ferdinand is also pretty much useless. I'm using him as a Javelin launcher on horseback now

yes, it's absurdly easy. I'm waiting on the difficulty patch before making a final judgement because everything else about the game is great.

>tfw my Hilda has not gotten a single point in STR for the past 5 levels

Yup it's piss easy and despite how much time you spend growing your units it's not as flexible or robust as the DS game reclassing.
Forging was neutered to the ground
So few classes can use magic
Almost every master class requires Lance and Riding so most units get railroaded
Some maps are real good though and I like the strategy of having to deal with monsters.

>titanus enemies
Holy shit

Reminder that Edelgard is the cuck route.

We've still got two more difficulties to come.
As it is we're basically stuck with what would normally be regarded as "normal" in most FE games which is also easy in other entries.

So what happens if you lose all your units other than the mandatory ones? Are you just stuck with like 3 people or do you get generics?

>because everything else about the game is great.
Personally I disagree because besides the botched strategy aspect, I absolutely HATE the school part.

And even though I'm probably the only person on the planet thinking this, I really think the characters in an FE game don't need to be fleshed out. I was fine with them being mostly strategy units and I struggle to find the F3H characters as interesting or elaborate as, say 7's characters.

But it puts the fanbase into perspective I think. Shows how many people actually played for the characters as well.

Punished Dimitri is so fucking cool. He's way more punished than Snake ever was

No

You're gonna carry that weight.

>Forging was neutered to the ground
good, considering how broken forging was

I feel like master classes are misnamed because they or more of a side grade than an upgrade for some. Most of them even have worse growths.

Random question but is anyone else getting cucked out of posting images by Hiro?

For some reason I get a
>cant post images because your IP range is blocked from doing so due to IPs
Which of you fuckers in the same range as me, posted CP?

Just go church route this run.

I mostly hated 7's characters aside from Hector, Matthew, Jaffar and Nino. But I agree with the assertion that the support mechanics in FETH suck.

>See you in the eternal flmaes
>Too weak for this world
>Someday, I too will fall
I thought Punished Dimitri was kino just speaking to him in the monastery, then we started purging the rats and I heard his new victory lines. Holy shit this guy is based as fuck, maybe it's honeymoon phase but he easily supplanted Ike as my favorite lord

>I really think the characters in an FE game don't need to be fleshed out.
I generally agree with this but 3H has miles better characters than say, Fates, because fleshed out is much more preferable to "one obnoxious character trait repeated ad nauseam".

I'm enjoying this game but I hope they do away with the huge school part for the next instalment and brings back a bigger roster with units introduced gradually over the game again.

The main issue i see here is the lance and riding one, I don't know why IS decided that the only option for mounted magic users is for them to have lance leveled too it was a dumb choice and Bow knight as well for no reason.
They really needed more master classes.

>Complaining about character focus in a series that has never had good strategy elements.

He's just mad that Dimitri is stealing his thunder as "The Edgelord of the Monastery", so he wants Blyat to help Dimitri stop sulking so he can reclaim his rightful title

Even from the trailers, I didn't think they would go this hard on the punished thing, but Dimitri is super fucked up after the timeskip. Everything he says and does is badass

I think it is easy because your units tend to snowball in just the way you want them to. I get that's the point of the teaching aspect, but it often makes for some game breaking stuff.
Another thing is the ridiculous skill tree.
Close counter for people who take archer for a bit is just one example.
I think the initial difficulty stems from the fact that your units are essentially "behind the curve" when you first start out. Anyone who played GD can attest to fighting archers that have +1 range over your own is frustrating.

>when the thief leader starts to escape and Dimitri changes the mission objective
kino

>weebs will never understand that moment when Rhea snaps in English with unrelentless rage for siding with Edelgard

The kino story easily elevates this to at least an 8.5 or 9, even if the game is lacking in difficulty. There's always lunatic too. hopefully that helps t hings

If you liked Ike you would love Edelgard
They both same type "fuck adults and traditions" type of people

I guess it's fine if the game only requires it to be broken to be beatable ala the DS games in the harder modes. I need a money sink though.
True, trading off growths for movement. But it's lack of diversity is frustrating.

Shitpost

She might have nice tits, but she's low hanging fruit, hardly worth it.

I want to cum inside Marianne while she leg locks me. Missionary position for the sole purpose of procreation, of course.

It's pretty strange that the Advanced tier of classes is kind of skipped over due to everyone's levels increasing during the timeskip. Dimitri went from lvl22 in the last pre-timeskip mission to lvl30 after the rat cleansing.

Oh don't get me wrong, character wise I think its the best of the nu-FE games.
But yeah, I liked the brevity of the old system. Kept the games focused and moving forward.
Shame, but you named all my favorites too.

I can't wait to play Edelgard's route after I finish Dimitri. How different are the routes? I imagine all the post timeskip stuff is pretty different

Did any of you play Marianne's paralouge? Holy shit, warp was a Godsend, but seriously fuck isolating or splitting your units at the beginning of a map.

Repairing can be a big money sink when you unlock the eastern and western merchants

Is part two really short because I'm 40 hours in pre-timeskip

it depends on how many optional battles you're doing, most of my units were in the high 20s already and well into their advanced classes by the time I hit the timeskip

I'm 52 hours pre-timeskip on Blue Lions. I really love the monastery part, so I spend a lot of time there I guess

Attached: 1505709398018.png (250x382, 154K)

But that's easy just park Marianne in the house to the north while the rest of your units make your way to her. I didn't even know about the house until someone here pointed it out so I managed to luck out I guess.
Fuck the Death Knight paralogue though.

Shouldn't you be saving money repairing instead of just buying a new weapon
Never ran through the numbers

My biggest gripe was that there are random archers hiding in the monster infested fog to fuck up any fliers you send in. I took Marianne and Hilda into the Blue Lions, so while Punished Dimitri could practically solo the beasts, my Wyvern Lord Hilda got an arrow to the gut and I ended up restarting to change my strategy. Marianne herself is under no threat if you just park her in a tree next to Maurice until your army can clear the path to the grove

I send all the professors and Cyril/Flayn out on the side missions, and only use my students on the main missions. Helps keep the game more interesting difficulty wise, since you aren't steamrolling everything quite as hard.

repairing takes resources, which are usually better spent on Forging, since that also repairs. But you can buy the first two materials from the Eastern merchant.

One thing I really dont like compared to old-FE is how the characters dont represent their classes anymore.

Back in the day they really looked like what they are(for the most part) and their characters revolved around their class to a certain degree.

Since you can class everything now, they mostly revolve around their background/student personas and I'm not feeling that.

Just did it last night, I don't recall struggling with it at all and I felt the two other professors' paralouge.to be a worse case of having your units isolated. The enemy beside her isn't initially hostile, you have guaranteed access to at least two flying units at that point(though hidden archers are a concern), and theres a pretty good chance you're playing GD so everyone's favorite fun-sized nuke is there to help clear a path

>characters are characters instead of class archetypes
>this is somehow bad
but every character has a "default" class that gets updated to have their timeskip look anyway

>spoiler
I loved that the saints and Maurice were still alive.
"I said HUSH Uncle!" lmao

What are you talking about, everyone's timeskip designs reflect their default class very well

They clearly have "intended" classes, and their timeskip designs reflect that. Marianne and Mercedes are Bishops, Sylvain is a Paladin, Felix is a Swordmaster, etc. I'll agree it can potentially hamper backstory (no more Tana being a rookie pegasus knight) but the writing is good enough here that they don't suffer for it

Unfair to compare to 7 when Harken and Renault are the characters with the most depth in the entire series

I too, miss my class-based gags.

Attached: 1553113609863.jpg (1500x776, 1.62M)

Three Houses easily has the most developed characters in the series. Nostalgia goggles are the only reason you could think otherwise

>tfw Renault is a genuinely interesting character but nobody will ever notice because he joins fucking late in the middle of nowhere, is a shit unit and needs supports or to be brought to the last boss battle to get dialogue
I like him but I doubt we'll ever get a character like that again.

I understand your complaints but personally I like prefer the new direction. I always felt that FE games, while fun, were never the best tactics games around. Things like FFT and especially XCOM were always more engaging from a gameplay perspective.

Not him, but as a whole I agree. 3H definitely has the most complex characters. I also don't think he's wrong about those two; Harken's supports are god tier and Renault is such a weirdly interesting character who you have to replay the entire game 3 times to understand at all.

The others were characters too. Just without having to rely on school situations to build it but instead embraced their strategy game unit aspect.
Yea I know, but they still dont really feel like the same and rely too much on the place they're in.

I'm not saying this game is terrible due to that, I just loved that about FE in the past is all

Every archer gets close counter

>paralogue rec level 13
>map has tons of monsters all lvl 16-20+

And the vast majority of them had as much personality as white bread.

Okay, but do Dmitri/Edelgarde get Distant Counter?

NO

Doesn't need to be one? Apparently it does, because Three Houses does it as well as the best of them.

Is there any downside to leaving out some literally who battle side quests? Like training with the kingdom knights or removing some bandits.

co,nsidering petra

I wonder how people are going to react when dlc rolls around with the everyone happy ending and Edelgard gets her true happy ending with Dimitri giving him like 10 kids while both professors get jack shit

>tfw every other girl in BL gets downgraded

This is literally a “character’s are just functions” argument. You sound like you would be happier if every unit was a generic unit that just had their class and nothing else.
In that case go play xcom.

It wasn’t that bad, fog was more of an issue than the group splitting. The main beast doesn’t attack her until your own troops get close enough and afaik the others won’t bother her either, so keeping her perfectly still is enough to keep her alive.

How long is the game? I'm not even at the timeskip yet but my units are getting into the mid teens in level. Normally that's mid- late game in other FEs

You miss out on a shitty D rank battalion and some renown, oh well. Your battle time is better spent on paralogues, make sure you get all of them done before the timeskip locks you out. Paralogues often lead to getting sacred relics and other such badass gear

>Doesn't need to be one?
That's right.
>because Three Houses does it as well as the best of them.
Lmao stop exaggerating. 90% of pre-TS dialogue is nothing but one dimensional anime school archetypes.
You literally have the sleepy one, the hungry one, the overachiever etc etc.

what about Claude

not really. They just give you whatever the quest reward is

Just some materials and renown. That being said, make sure you still do the merchant quest so you have two new shop keepers that sell:
>Seeds
>Tea
>Fish bait
>some meat
>Gifts
All other quests I see are no different than regular maps added. Paralogues have better rewards anyway.

he marries Anna or some shit i guess

>having characters with actual depth
Many others had depth too. Stop making bad faith arguments because you cant handle some FE fans not liking their games being turned into anime-school sims.
Same goes for you.

How should I spend activity points on my day off? I'm mostly eating with them to raise motivation

Dorothea, she was made to be a dancer

I would make babies with Shamir naturally.

yo answer me

Maybe you should have done more supports. Some characters, namely Bernie can be a little one dimensional, but even Bernie has a lot of depth in some of her supports, even if most of them are tropey like that. Characters like her are definitely the outlier too, the majority of them are genuinely well developed and interesting.

Dorothea. You're cheating yourself out of the fastest unit in the game if you make Petra a dancer.

>doesnt need to be one
If the UK sales data is representative of the world then 3H will be the best selling FE by a mile.

Speaking of that paralogue, I was so fucking mad when even though I one rounded every wyvern rider the turn it got into town (in the same fucking spot in the southeast every time), the townspeople only gave me a bullion because the pirates "destroyed the town". I thought the 5 turns thing was five consecutive turns in town, not five cumulative turns.

My people are level 34 or so and I’m just a little bit past the time skip

>actual depth
Its all literally the most obvious two dimensional shit you can imagine
>oh this girl is so cheerful!
>o no she's actually sad on the inside...
zzzzzz

He's right in the part that a lot of characterizations here are hit and miss that only weeaboos can tolerate when they miss.
Sometimes during terrible supports I certainly wish back the old days as well.

she's already enough of a whore as is

>says to stop making bad faith arguments
>calls the game an anime school sim
really makes you think

10 gorilla kids is all you need for an army to steamroll the entire continent, sounds like the most stable future to me.

good taste

Get a B support with any character

I thought the same thing

I'm 50 hours into Blue Lions and still have like 8 chapters to go, so like another 30 hours. As for units, remember levels used to reset on promotion, so most units ended the game in the late 30s, not late teens.

>its the most dumbed down casual FE to date, targeted at normies and waifufags who buy it willingly
>therefore I have no problem with seeing this franchise become shit
top tier logic
also, it sold less in Japan than previous entries.
it truly seems as if the sales of F3H in the west are entirely carried by weebs and faggots

choir training->first tournament of the month->eating with students early on(before you have a million gifts and flowers)->training stats you want.

Is it even worth recruiting students/professors/knights once you get past the max 10 units limit?
Seems pointless to train people that you will probably never use.

Being turned user. Not having been turned.
The next one is the deciding factor on that front.

>training stats
>never check Blyergh's stats because she stomps everything
>get to level 20, why can't I be Swordmaster
>C+ swords
dang I fucked that up

see

usually I would say the versatility is good in order to adapt to each stage but this game is way too easy for that to matter so yeah

Good to know, because Im still doing that mission.
Also, so far I immediately went on attack instead of defense, so I think nobody has had a chance to get through anyway.

For supports and adjutants.

Adjucents is the new pair up and it obviously requires extra bodies. You can deploy 3 so you’ll want at least 13 people.

I did the same, but Wyvern Riders can get into town within like 2 turns of spawning, and sometimes you just can't catch them if you don't have an archer near their spawn

I recruited to replace kids in my house that didn't turn out well. Marianne replaced Annette, Hilda replaced Dedue and Ferdinand replaced Ashe. You can still set leftovers as Adjutants to keep them from falling behind if they've gotten good levels, so do that with characters like Catherine

What do those Green exclamation points on calendar mean?

>sold less in Japan
And your source is?

paralogues

Paralogues

You fags should decide once and for all if "it sells well" arguments are accepted or not.
I swear to god this place is flip flopping around in that regard like a fish on dry land.

Either say that ad populum is a shit argument or say you dont give a shit.

>edelgard route is the shortest

OHNONONONONON

So, any relevance that I should know why Anna bears a Crest on her cloths?

Whatever, frenchman

Oh yeah I havent factored spawns Only in turn 3 before I turned it off.

the canon one is BL anyway

Has anyone recruited every student yet? I almost did it but it's February and I know that skip I coming up.
Playing BE and got all the girls (other than Hilda) and all that's left is Raphael (because who has time to train in heavy armour), Lorenz, Sylvain and Dedue

ta gueule

Calm your mammaries, its just two chapters
Not him but there was another thread comparing the first days sales and even though I didnt care and pay attention, iirc it was less than Awakening and Fates, or at least one of them.

>Calm your mammaries
What a reddit phrase

Why would you try to recruit everyone? Then you don't get to feel the pain of having to kill them all during the war, and what's the fun in that?

>the canon one
oh user...
finish one route and you'll find out why theyre all the canon route if you want
the game pulls a cowardly move in that regard

>defeat death knight
>don't get the dark seal drop
why

It’s not a big deal, bylethe gets his own snowflake class regardless of stats that give you time to build stats after the time skip. I’m not sure if it’s equal to an advance or master class though.

Well I just started collecting the ones I liked and then I ended up just getting them all.

Thats because I am reddit!

Hello everyone btw! I really hope you enjoy this game as much as we do. My favorite is Mercedes, or Mercedes Benz as my sister likes to call her. Check out her meme that was the top post haha (^3°)

which map? I did it in the catacombs and got it.
Are you sure it didnt went into the convoy?

>Waaah wahh the game has no canon route it's shit!!!
>Waaah wahh the DLC better not have a canon golden route it will be shit!!!
So what the fuck does people actually want?

I'm fine either way.

we need a route where we as the player go full conqueror, not second fiddle of some dumb bimbo i mean legit ruler of the whole continent

Almost no one is saying the first one, and golden routes suck and take away from the sting of the other routes. The only potential gold route would be Dimitri and Claude siding with Edelgard against the Church, which is contradictory to both of their beliefs. One guy in another route proposed the 5th route be siding with the Slitherers against the Church, which could be an interesting way to fuck them over without having to fulfill Edelgard's shitty self absorbed plan

>Waaah wahh different people on an anonymous image board have different opinions!!!
Fuck off retard

The last pre-timeskip Blue Lions mission is hype as fuck

Attached: 4652f36a4b2e830a0f9c859aa7017b0e--cosplay.jpg (236x236, 11K)

I have no idea what that is and google say something about Gens.?

>which is contradictory to both of their beliefs
Not really, at least Claude is sceptical of the church already.

they're side missions focused on one or two of your units. It's a recurring fire emblem thing

how do i trigger it?
i didnt saw anthing on the map
or is it a battle?

It's a battle. There's quite a few of them, and there's a cutoff date, so I'd try to do like 1 or 2 per month

The first post-time skip BL mission is also hype as fuck
>Lets kill some rats

>someone needs to put an end to the cycle of the strong trampling the weak
How can anyone actually say that Dimitri is boring? He might be the coolest FE Lord ever desu

he is pretty cool
>when his ptsd kicks in when those villagers go berserk and he wants everyone dead
cool shit

Daily reminder to take a romantic boat ride with Edelgard and leaver her in the middle of a lake while you swim to shore
