Streamer put it down to normal because he kept not learning that every enemy had Weapon Breakers and shoving his Edelgard into a billion assassins and wondering why she wasn't hitting.

People in this thread have said in the past that metoady couldn't possibly be Edelgard's and must be a forced slitherer plant. Someone said there was Japanese dialogue that hinted that before. Someone else grabbed the japanese dialogue and showed there wasn't.

Only Metodey's battle dialogue has been shown so far. In terms of dialogue alone Metodey has more than that, and the original assertion might not even be based on something from his dialogue. McTimmy, can you please be more specific with what you were referring to?

In terms of dialogue alone Metodey has more than that, and the original assertion might not even be based on something from his dialogue. Really this is my being careless with my wording again and if you want to call me out as wrong, then yeah, I deserve it. There isn't a "smoking gun" with Metodey saying he's working for Arundel. But there's enough ambiguity in his words and actions to suggest she's not the THAT PERSON. Metodey is dismissive of Edelgard. As far as I am aware of, his lines after are not changed on any route even when the circumstances are different - Flame Emperor unmasked, different orders. Mysterious Mages are part of the invasion force and all of those are Arundel's goons even when they're tagged in different factions. He immediately becomes a sniveling coward for his life when otherwise all of Edelgard's loyal followers are believing in her dream and fight to the end without such a display. Add in his complete bafflement of Edelgard's involvement in CS and his talk of how he's gonna rise through the ranks in a circumstance Edelgard is clearly unaware of and there's enough ambiguity to his true allegiances to allude to him being in the care of the other major political power in the Empire: Arundel.

The DLC on hard feels a lot closer to the main game's maddening than it does hard, to me. I was definitely caught off guard at first, especially since I hadn't played for months. I'm a fan but calling it "Normal" and "Hard" may be a bit misleading.

Endorph posted:The hot rumor right now is an FE9 remake, due to how much Tellis stuff has been added to heroes recently. That theory doesn't relaly make sense to me though because you'd think they'd wait to add Tellius stuff until after the remake was announced and interest was surging. That said Ike's japanese VA is gonna be at and hosting both of the days of the Fire Emblem expo in may, and incidentally FE9 came out in april/may 2005, so that bit of lining up does make sense. They'll definitely announce something to do with FE9, I feel like. That being said, if they actually do a remake, they should, ideally, remake both of them into one game. and also put supports back into FE10. Junpei Hyde posted:imo hubert should kill bernies dad

I also married her in the other other timeline! Obviously my real mistake was assuming I wouldn't want to play all three routes and not marrying Edelgard when I had the chance. Sothis is an idea of course.

Junpei Hyde posted:The fact I can't gay marry hapi is a crime While I'm happy that boys get an option bringing them up 3, the fact that they didn't just make everyone in the wolves bi is a tragedy. Balthus is as flirty with Yuri as Yuri is with everyone else, and you can totally see it with Hapi, maybe not as much with Constance but still. And while Yuri's personality isn't really typical for a pretty boy, he still is a pretty boy and I bet a lot more gay dudes would be happy to romance Balthus over him, if only for some variety in romance options.

Constance/Mercedes is very "They're like family. Sisters, if you will" while Lysie/Balthus is a clear "they hosed."

Quite frankly having a variety would be better but given that we are coming off Fateswakening being an intolerable morass of gameplay-enforced heterosexuality having all the characters be bi would be less intolerable

Tbh i prefer how three houses handles it to 'everyone is bi lol.' Everyone feels like they have sexualities that manifest in different waya based on who theyre with and their own self perceptions/experiences. Itd be great if there were like, 2-3 exclusively gay characters but i vastly prefer the current dichotomy to everyone being bi.

By the way, does 3H do a thing where the endings will say characters got married, except if the pairing is gay in which case it's all "spent their life together" and "were inseparable" I feel like that's a pattern but i've only seen one set of endings so I might just be projecting here.

See my edit for the earlier post on my thoughts on that. If they can't be bothered to be vaguely consistent about queer characters being able to support the same-sex Byleth (like, the only non-Byleth support of Hubert's that mentions love explicitly in JPN is with Ferdinand unless I misremember and his S-support CG doesn't even show Byleth, why does he not support Boyleth? (I know why)), why should I have faith in them actually writing a gay character without a lovely shoehorned comphet ending and be expected to swallow it. Leon from Echoes exists for modern gay fremblem characters, sure, but also he's explicitly attracted to someone he believes has no interest and his ending leaves him single. IntSys is too cowardly, and quite frankly if given the options of everyone is bi or yet another "look at this lesbian having loveless marriages with men!!!  " I'll take the former

Just finished the DLC campaign! It was great, worth it for the battles even if I don't use the characters or classes too much in the main game (I'll probably use them but also I have to make sure my main class is strong enough for the post time-skip map). There should be gay and lesbian characters alongside bi and straight ones, and the avatar should not be able to S support every character. For the four DLC characters specifically though I think it would have been best for them to all be bi, since it's such a small group that you have to pay extra to get.
