oh huh

I... I did too

Yeah

You have the Blue Lion

The Jaspar Lion

Yeah I went to Eldigan the Lionheart and The Jaspar Lion before I thought of the Blue Lion haha

Young Lion and Blue Lion are just recency I suppose

He's only the Jaspar Lion because Rigels logo is a lion and theyre red And I think... the lion iconography is just all invented by the remake anyways

for sure

Yes

SoV did wonders for the worldbuilding of Valentia

Almost like it's one of the best remakes a game could ask for

Crazy how you can go from the world building of Fates

to the worldbuilding of SoV

My headcanon is that Fates is an Awakening in-universe book/fanfiction written by the children characters.

And if they ever remake fates, you can bet they will not care about the fact that the original manuscript was like

1000000s pages

condensed into that short game

Well don’t worry fe8 remake is going to go hard

They’re going to write Ephraim out of the game 😊

Will they make Eirikas route fun

NO

NOOOOOOOOOO

It still cracks me up

he has no voice

in engage

and is just... there.

I'm so upset about that

My headcanon is that he's actually not real

and is Eirikas tulpa

insane

Ephraim is just so cool in FE8. He literally just says, yeah I can win this, and then does. If you do Eirika's route, he's pretty much soloing Grado.

They should take the team who made the Engage petting minigame and let them lead the next game

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFDpuQzVrVc also, to bring this back to music in the music channel

It was in fates too

Looks like the main IS team loves petting

it wa shorter in fates

It was removed in NA iirc

there was also the indirect petting in 3H

because

they removed the petting

Yeah

but they didnt remove the cutscene

so

the cutscene just plays

like you pet them

You just stare at them

so you see their face

they say a line

sometimes a line about how you touched them

and then it just ends

"Don't send me back to the reality marble daddy"

They won't do this but

they'll make sure to rmeove

corrin and azura being cousins

Damnit what’s the point

I mean yeah incest is kinda weird!

true!

The entire game is incest but youre not actually related to anyone

the only person youre related to

both (two) of them die at the end of conquest/birhtright

(though you can still have a kid with azura)

ignore the fact that lilith is your only actually REAL sibling

in the game full of sibling fucking

still the best gameplay in the franchise by far though

I hate pair up

I will never play a pair up game again

pair up in awakening is bad

really bad

pair up in fates is really good

I sitll don't like it in Fates, but I agree it's better than Awakening

why don't you like it

I don't like characters being relegated to being "stat backpacks" Fates/Awakening in general feel too snowbally where you're gonna get your good units (royals in fates) and ignore everyone else.

I think it's pretty smart way to give you 20 units without making it so that maps become you having giant chunks of units swarming in a deathball It also gives a use to units that can't reach something this turn, but it makes you think about their positioning

I mean that's fair but you lose SO MUCH damage by using a character as a stat backpack. You only really do it on characters that are incredibly strong already and just need a bit of extra speed/str/def or another point of mov You can also just not engage with that part of the mechanic. It's better that unless your unit is going to be taking a lot of hits in a turn, to ALWAYS seperate

because you gain a LOT of damage

There's alot of strategy because the fact that enemies can use pairups against you, for you to pair up when you're going to get hit by a lot of enemies to cut the damage down massively

I dunno, the Royals are so much better than everyone else that it feels like I may as well just stat backpack them and not engage with the mechanic of splitting up.

I mean… yeah but also
