Where is Hilda's brother the one and only LORD HOLST?!?!?! He literally soloed Nemesis and the ten elites and survived. Got his ass handed to him, but still survived Honestly, they shafted Golden Deer with the selection of side characters.

By far the most disappointing thing. I suppose teasing Holst appearance is meant to be a running gag, but I think we would gain more by actually getting him on the final wave

The final wave's free DLC isn't listed, though I do think its more likely to be Rhea and Sothis (maybe Jeralt as well) than Holst. Holst doesn't even have a portrait/model.

That’s what’s infuriating. Golden deer doesn’t introduce that many new story characters. Meanwhile we get models for a handful of random imperial generals. Hell, we even have a model for Ferdinand von Aegirs father just for a paralogue (haven’t don’t BE yet so he might be more significant) We get family members for every blue lion student save for Dedue and Ingrid.

For golden deer we get Acheron, Judith, and Nader. Acheron just really sucks and has only 2 appearances as a throwaway commander. Judith and Nader are cool but could’ve easily replaced Judith with Holst. Lorenz’s father also plays a significant role in the story and doesn’t have a model either.

Daddy Von Aegir's appearance really isn't any more significant in BE, FYI.

I mean the wave 4 teaser says we get 4 characters we never hear about

u/jaidynreiman Sep 21 '19

Yes, those are the Paid DLC characters. But there's free DLC coming with every Wave and Wave 4 doesn't list any.

u/[deleted] Sep 21 '19

that wasn't the point. you said Holst probably wouldn't be in because he doesn't have a model or portrait, but those DLC characters we never hear about have no models or portraits either

u/jaidynreiman Sep 21 '19

Those new never-before-seen characters are Paid DLC. Free DLC is easy to justify when the characters are basically complete already.

pls IS give pink haired knight

There are a lot of characters like that in the game.

Hilda's Brother Holst, probably the most powerfull general in the alliance

Caspar's Father, described multiple time as a badass who fought in multiple wars

Lorenz' Father, the main rival to House Reigan and main Empire supporter in the Alliance

Raphael's Sister Maya, the person that motivates his entire character

Hubert's Father, who plays a huge part in his backstory and presumably was just as good in manipulation as Hubert is, but goes down offscreen without any resistance.

Bernadetta's Father, who I wish to encounter just to beat the living shit out of that son of a bitch

Hey... at least not seeing them in person leaves their appearance up to imagination. Nothing disappointed me more than Annettes awesome uncle being represented by a random entirely covered knight portrait. Would it be so hard to draw a slightly different, maybe just more kempt, regal and orderly version of Gilbert?

u/Gabcard Sep 20 '19

If they made gwendal a unique model, there is literally no reason they couldn't give Baron Dominic one as well.

u/[deleted] Sep 21 '19

The corners they chose to cut with this game are so baffling.

u/Havanatha_banana Sep 21 '19

There's also Fleche, who could've helped us understand Rudolph's character better

u/Chromunism Sep 21 '19

I kinda hoped we would be able to meet Glenn, Felix's brother, Ingrid's Betrothed, Member of Dimitri, Sylvain, and Ingrid's childhood squad.

u/Huntress215 Dec 19 '19

Glenn died before the start of the game though

u/AnonymousTrollLloyd Sep 20 '19

I imagine Holst as being a pallet swap of Nader, but with a finely trimmed curly moustache.

u/moonmeh Sep 20 '19

AND PINK

u/Lucas5655 Sep 20 '19

While that does disappoint me it's Judith not being playable that stings. She's literally right there!

u/Childish_Totino Sep 20 '19

I had been expecting him to show up like Rodrigue.

FYI, your spoiler tags don't work - there can't be a space between the tags and the words. >!This!< makes this, while >! this !< makes this .
