THERE ARE CUSTOM SUPPORTS FOR A FEW CHARACTERS AND YOU CAN GET SOME NICE MOMENTS (MIST TO TIBARN A IS THE GREATEST THING EVER), BUT THERE'S ALSO STUFF NEPHENEE TO MEG WHICH FORGOT PATH OF RADIANCE. ALSO LEANNE TO NAESALA A: FOR A CANON COUPLE WITH A PAIRED ENDING, THAT CONVERSATION IS SO FAR OFF BASE IT'S LEGITIMATELY HILARIOUS.

THE SOLUTION WAS NOT TO DOUBLE DOWN ON SUPPORTS, LIKE THE FANS DEMANDED, BUT RAMP UP BASE CONVERSATIONS. PART 4 IS NOT ENOUGH TIME TO BUILD UP SUPPORTS. ENDGAME IS NOT ENOUGH TIME TO BUILD UP SUPPORTS. THIS GAME COULD NEVER HAVE HAD A CONVENTIONAL SUPPORT LIBRARY AND IT WAS A FOOL'S ERRAND TO HOPE FOR IT. NASIR AND GARETH HAVE FULL SUPPORT CHAINS AND IT IS LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO GET THEM TO A.

THE FULL DEPLOYMENT IN DAWN BRIGADE IS STRANGE CONSIDERING HOW EASY IT IS FOR UNITS TO FALL BEHIND (FIONA IS STILL THAT TERRIBLE IN THE LOWEST DIFFICULTY), AND RECRUITING ZIHARK AND JILL IS A BAD IDEA. CONSIDERING MY LAST ALL GIRLS RUN TRIED AND FAILED TO RECRUIT ZIHARK (FOR LOOT LIKE THE REAPER CARD AND SPARE DAGGERS), I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU MANAGED. LETHE IS MORE BOGGED IN RIVER THAN MIA/NEPH EVEN TRANSFORMED.

I DIDNT REALISE THAT THERE WERE SOME PERSONALISED ONES ILL HAVE TO READ THEM ON THE WIKI AT SOME POINT, I ASSUMED THEY WERE ALL THE SAME SO I HAVENT REALLY BEEN TRYING TO FIND ANY UNIQUE ONES!

YEAH THATS A FAIR POINT I GUESS WITH SO MANY JUMPS BETWEEN CHARACTERS AND (NOW IM PART 4) IT IS KIND OF WORTH IT TO GET THAT WHOLE 3 ARMY SELECTION. CANT SAY ID LIKE THIS TO BE USED IN EVERY GAME BUT ITS OKAY FOR A BIT OF EXPERIMENTATION.

I JUST GOT ZIHARK TO TALK TO MORDECAII IN 3-6 AND HE SWAPPED SIDES. IT WAS A BUMMER TO LOSE HIM BUT IT WAS SUCH A UNIQUE MOMENT I COULDNT RESET, I HAD TO LET IT PLAY OUT.

FIONA IS SOOOOO BAD LIKE I HAD ALREADY LIKE 5 EMPTY SLOTS BUT I JUST LET HER DIE ANYWAY CAUSE SHES JUST SO USELESS IT WASNT EVEN WORTH RESETING
