I kind of agree. Awakening and especially Fates suffer when the writers have to contrive scenarios where every possible combination of characters can spontaneously fall in love after four conversations without ever impacting the plot. Since they aren’t making the Fates mistake of trying to shove kids into a narrative that doesn’t have room for them, why bother letting the player play dating simulator with everyone?

People love shipping.

True, but it’s removes potential for the narrative to build relationships when they have to keep things blank enough to allow for the player to slap whatever couple they want together. Would you rather have a few romances that develop over time and flesh out both characters and effect the plot, or the old standard of “three conversations followed by spontaneous declaration of love”?

What I want is irrelevant (now and forever). People want shipping so they'll get shipping then start shipping things not supported in-game anyway.

Can I use/do anything with these or are they just there for taking up space and/or lore-fluff things?

lmao shamir voted for fukken hubert in the white heron cup

no matter since dorothea ran away with it anyway

e: also, a support saying "it will take some time to deepen this bond" is code for "wait til the timeskip" right

Not precisely, some support ranks are pre-timeskip they just need certain months. Most are post-timeskip though.

Are heavy armor units worth it this time around? I made Raphael an Armor Knight instead of a Brawler and I'm wondering if I should reclass him. He's just so slow


I ended up intentionally limiting myself on poaching students because after I got three I realized I could get a bunch more pretty easily. I'd rather save something for the other routes. It really depends a lot on how much you explore and how much you try to raise supports with students in other houses, too.

Well, Great Knight is worth it at least.

I'm wondering if the season pass is going to be worth the fairly high cost, an initial glance shows that its mainly fluff DLC, cosmetics and the like with some nebulous story content next year, just when in the game this will be set is also going to be interesting.

If there's a rather... important thread hanging thread resolved in the story DLC it'd probably be worth it to me.

Yeah I'm not too hype in having a dancer. Sure they can make another character go twice in one turn, ideally to double their killing potential. But why do that when I can just.. have the person who is a dancer also kill?

Look El wasn't going to get support points with Byleth with her and him killing everything in one round.

So I have a timeskip question, black eagle route

First map had Leonie fighting me. She ran up and killed herself on one of my guys and it did a big dramatic "you lost a playable character" death moments. I was trying to recruit her before the timeskip but she kept saying "nah".

Could I uh, not killed her and still got her on my team?


You can avoid killing anyone in the Alliance just by rushing the boss. And once you're done with the arc, there is dialog about letting the Deer students join but no one showed up for me (probably because I didn't bother with recruitment at all). The sad death music will always play for any student who falls though, even those it's impossible to get on your side entirely.

Okay, I have no idea how to give Hubert the drat flowers he wants for this quest of his. Clearly it's not normal gift-type flowers no matter what the quest implies. But there are no items I can find lying around the monastery that look like related quest items, either. What heck?

There's an item point in front of the greenhouse that gives you the correct flower.

How feasible it is to reach flying S+ for the immunity skill? The way skill levels scale it seems pretty dire. I wanted to make Byleth a wyvern lord but maybe I should stick to characters that have a flying strength.

I had Lindhardt focused on Faith exclusively almost the entire game and he only hit S+ like three maps before the end. Flying should be slightly easier since you'd have the group chore but S+s are not the expected standard.

Completely intentional. Relics require a compatible crest to use or they drain your HP. For Thyrsus, that means it belongs to either Lorenz or Lysithea.

Just having any Crest should let you use it without damage. Though I never got to test that out myself.

Anna has a lost item near it for her terrible secret shop.

It feels like the third floor of the monastery is also never used but that might just be if you're Black Eagles

Also man it definitely feels like there's a lot of plot threads that don't exactly get dropped but are strange.
As black eagles there's two generals - Randolph and Ladislava. They're with you for a bit and you see them in some battles as enemies on other paths.
Why do they exist? I genuinely don't get it

To give bosses that aren't students because students can be poached.
