can you s rank with multiple people or is this game a monogamy sim
the fe3h fight music is actually a jam and it's stuck in my head
this is the one time her bad-at-talking gag is funny and not ugh
i didn't expect this game would be almost as horny as assassin's creed
lmao it springs the 'who will you marry' choice on you out of nowhere so you don't have the chance to save beforehand and see what each scene is like
there is one compelling storyline in fire emblem, and that's you helping bernadetta build up her self worth so that she can call you out for being an asshole
oh god nevermind i got more of the shamir/catherine story and it's brutal
of course it only turns out this way if you turn against the church and take shamir with you
make an entire game about shamir imo
the whole ending is underwhelming in the extreme
at least i'm free now
honestly relieved that most of my bros beefed it during the last battle so that they couldn't cockblock these two
the main plotlines of fe3h are nonsense but the little relationships that develop between the minor characters are really nice
and no matter which house you choose, most students can be convinced to join you, so you can see them interact with different people
in another world this game could have been a commentary on how we decide things and take positions largely as a result of the community we're in and the relationships we have
also it's bullshit you can't get s rank with marianne
wow only dudes can be dark mages, fucked up
edelgard may be a fascist but at least she doesn't go around telling girls to smile
shamir and catherine's relationship is the best part of the game
i made fun of the REPRESENTATION people for getting excited about this game but two cranky old gays talking through their feelings is good
yellow house spoilers
before you fight edelgard, you're like 'i don't want to kill her' and claude is like 'yeah let's see if we can spare her' then you knock her on her ass and she's like 'ugh just fuckin kill me then'
and you're just like,, 'ok' and split her head open
????
oh wow the same voice actress does shamir and dorothea (in the english)
i thought it was just old white liberals who say shit like 'female tyrants are just Strong Women' but apparently it's spreading https://twitter.com/goldmadoka/status/1174419951219691520
(the quoted article is this perfectly sensible if unremarkable one https://www.pastemagazine.com/articles/2019/09/fire-emblem-three-houses-essay.html)
having good intentions doesn't mean you can't end up as a fascist!! even if you're really hot!!!!
you know who else was hot when they were young?
that's right, stalin
this ties back into what i was hollering about last month, when that article came out about how fe3h fell short as a Queer Narrative
if the only narrative media you consume is AAA videogames, then i can see why you'd be defensive of the queer characters in those games
which is fine i guess, as long as it doesn't reach the point of 'allying with crypo-nazis in order to take over the world is fine, as long as you get rid of the nazis afterwards'
SAUNA BOSS kicks ass though, to be fair
so nintendo's response to 'maybe it's bad to have a teacher so horny for their students' is ... having a student challenge you to a duel over it
this is a bit too charitable but also dia is the only person who's written intelligently about fire emblem https://www.pastemagazine.com/articles/2019/09/fire-emblem-three-houses-essay.html
me to the bimbo part of my brain that still wants to play fire emblem
fire emblem n-gage continues the franchise tradition of chaotic horny
wait fire emblem engage doesn't do the little endgame ships thing where it tells you who ended up with who
this game sucks wow
watching someone else stream engage and hearing the english voice acting for the first time, and i legit thought it was the streamer doing a jokey read of the lines, that's how bad some of it is
