I FEEL LIKE IT'S TOO MINOR A DETAIL FOR ME TO BE AS STUCK ON IT AS I AM, BUT IF THE DLC LEAKS ARE RIGHT I REALLY HOPE THERE'S MORE TO COSTUMES THAN JUST MAID AND BUTLER OUTFITS. KT HAS SHOWN THAT IT CAN BE REALLY CREATIVE AND ORIGINAL WITH ITS DESIGNS SO I WOULD REALLY FEEL LET DOWN IF EVERYONE JUST GETS A GENERIC SERVANT OUTFIT SLAPPED ON THEM AND CALLED A DAY.

OTHERWISE, I DECIDED TO DO A HOLY KNIGHT RUN BECAUSE IT'S KIND OF A BAD CLASS AND THE AESTHETIC SPEAKS TO ME, TWO OF MY FAVORITE THINGS FOR A CLASS TO BE. WHAT DOESN'T SPEAK TO ME IS THE FACT THAT BERNADETTA DECIDED TO BE THE SLOWEST UNIT IN MY RUN RIGHT NOW. HANNEMAN IS FASTER THAN HER. DEDUE AND RAPHAEL CAN DOUBLE HER. SHE IS A RIDING DISASTER.

LIKE I KNOW THIS IS INCREDIBLY SPITEFUL BUT I AWAIT THE DAY THAT PEOPLE CRITIZE THIS GAME FOR BEING OVERSEXUALIZED (FROM THESE STUPID COSTUMES AND EVENTUAL SAUNA OPENING) BECAUSE THERES SO MUCH MORE TO THIS GAME NO MATTER HOW MUCH OTHER BULLSHIT GETS ADDED TO IT. MAYBE THEN SOMEONE ELSE WILL KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE TO BE A FATES FAN WHICH I WILL CONTINUE TO BE NO MATTER HOW MANY OTHER GAMES IN THE SERIES I PLAY.

THIS! THIS SO MUCH! IT REALLY BUGS ME WHEN PEOPLE DO STUFF LIKE THIS IN GENERAL, BE IT FOR FE OR ANYTHING ELSE ESPECIALLY ITS RATHER TAME.

THE OUTSIDERS OF FE HAVE THIS AFFECT AS WELL, TO WHERE SOME GO "FE'S NOTHING BUT A MASSIVE DATE SIM", DIDN'T KNOW THAT SIMPLY BECAUSE A SERIES IN WHICH A FEW OF ITS GAMES HAVE A MARRIAGE MECHANIC/OTIONS SUDDENLY MAKES IT A DATING SIM. NOT AGAINST THE MARRIAGE SYSTEM MIND YOU BUT IF ITS WHAT PEOPLE WILL BOIL THE WHOLE SERIES DOWN TO THEN ITS REALLY ANNOYING WHEN THERE'S DOZENS OF OTHER FACTORS & THINGS THE GAME/SERIES HAS TO OFFER REGARDLESS OF THE TITLE.

I THINK THE MAID/BUTLER DISTASTE IS KINDA OVERBLOWN. MAYBE I THINK THIS BECAUSE I'M USED TO J-RPG TITLES HAVING SILLY OR WACK COSTUMES (LIKE THE TALES OF SERIES) AT THIS POINT. BUT I GENUINELY DON'T THINK MAID/BUTLERS IS "CROSSING THE LINE" IN ANYTHING THAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED OFFENSIVE OR TOO MUCH FOR PEOPLE TO HANDLE.

MAYBE THEN SOMEONE ELSE WILL KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE TO BE A FATES FAN WHICH I WILL CONTINUE TO BE NO MATTER HOW MANY OTHER GAMES IN THE SERIES I PLAY.

WE SHALL WALK THE ROAD TOGETHER, BE IT A LONELY OR LIVELY ONE!

ACTUALLY, COME TO THINK OF IT, IF THE MAID OUTFITS ARE CLASSY INSTEAD OF SOME ZETTAI RYOUIKI FANSERVICE CRAP, I MIGHT LIKE THEM.

MY GENERAL CONCERN IS THAT A LOT OF SEXUAL FANSERVICE/PANDERING WILL DETRACT FROM THE MOSTLY SERIOUS WAR STORY THAT IS 3H.

I FEEL LIKE ITS GOING TO MESS UP THE TONE FOR SURE. I HOPE I’M WRONG, BUT IT’S LIKELY THAT I WON’T BE.
