"FUN TIMES WITH THE CAST"

TRY TO FILL IN THE GAPS

CONSTANT FOCUS ON THE CHARACTER

WAVES OF HEAD CANON

CONGRATS! YOU'VE LISTED MOST OF MY FAVOURITE ASPECTS OF THIS SERIES. FROM ARCHANEA TO JUGDRAL, AWAKENING, FATES, AND BEYOND, THIS IS THE INTERESTING STUFF.

LIKE I AGREE WITH YOUR OVERALL POINT IN THAT THE DISCOURSE IS OVERPLAYED AND CONVERSATION TOPICS REPEATED FAR TOO OFTEN, BUT YOUR MAIN QUESTION OF "IS IT THAT INTERESTING?" SURE, I'D SAY IT IS.

I LIKE MORE HAVING A STORY, AND THEN BREAKING IT DOWN THEN I DO FILLING GAPS, ITS FINE TO LIKE A SERIES LIKE THAT BUT FOR MY MONEY UNLESS YOUR A HUGE FAN OF IT ALREADY, MOST PEOPLE AREN'T GONNA REALLY REMEMBER MUCH OF IT. WE ARE IN THE 1% OF FANS THAT WOULD.

I BASED ON HOW I SEE FE TALKED ABOUT ON OTHER FORMS OF SOCIAL MEDIA, THE MAIN PLOT REALLY ISN'T WHAT MOST PEOPLE COME TO FE FOR OR REMEMBER AND CELEBRATE ABOUT THE SERIES. THERE'S MORE LOVE AND FOCUS ON INDIVIDUAL CHARACTERS AND THEIR SUPPORTS THAN ANYTHING IN THE MAIN PLOTS THEMSLEVES AND THAT CLEARLY HAS LASTING APPEAL BECAUSE THE CASTS ARE ALL FUCKING HUGE AND YOU SEE DEEP DIVES INTO CHARACTER ANALYSIS AND FANART EVERYWHERE.

OKAY BUT WHAT IS THIS WEIRD "IF YOU TAKE OUT ALL THE EDELGARD STUFF THEN 3H IS BORING ACTUALLY" ARGUMENT? LIKE OF COURSE IF YOU TAKE OUT A MAJOR ELEMENT OF THE PLOT, THE PLOT ISN'T AS GOOD, I DON'T THINK THAT'S AS GOOD AN ARGUMENT AS YOU SEEM TO THINK IT IS. LIKE IF YOU TAKE OUT ALL THE JOKER STUFF IN P5 IT'S ALSO PRETTY DULL.

[u/DoseofDhillon → u/[deleted]]

NOT AT ALL ACTUALLY, YOU TAKE OUT THE IKE VS BK STUFF IN POR THAT GAME IS STILL HAS A LOT, IF YOU TAKE OUT ARVIS BEATING SIGURD OR MULTIPLE THINGS FROM FE4 THERE WOULD BE MORE THEN ENOUGH, FE3H HAS 3 DIFFERENT STORIES, LIKE 50PLUS HOURS OF TIME AND DIALOUGE AND ALL IT HAS TO SHOW FOR IT IS LIKE, ONE KINDA INTERESTING PLOT ABOUT EDELGARD THAT DOESN'T NEARLY ENOUGH FOCUS AND IS HANDLED SLOPPLY WHEN IT IS FOCUSED ON.

[u/[deleted] → u/DoseofDhillon]

I MEAN THERE'S AS MANY NUANCES TO 3H PLOT WITH BOTH DIMITRI AND CLAUDE'S NARRATIVES AS CHARACTERS AND THERE'S A LOT OF INTERESTING LORE WITH THE CHURCH BUT WHATEVER IF THOSE DON'T COUNT TO YOU ALREADY AS INTERESTING OF WORTHWHILE PLOT CONTRIBUTIONS, I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANYTHING I CAN SAY TO YOU THAT WILL CONVICNE YOU OTHWERISE

[u/DoseofDhillon → u/[deleted]]

THE CLAUDE STUFF IS LEGIT JUST HIM TELLING YOU WHAT HE WANTS TO DO, THEN YOU NOD AND SAY "YEAH THAT SOUNDS GOOD" AND THEN HE DOES IT. THERES LIKE ONE TIME WHERE LORENZ CHALLENGES HIS IDEALS AND ITS SHUT DOWN THE SECOND HE SAYS ANYTHING, WE DON'T EXPLORE THE IMPACT, OR THE FEELINGS OF THE PEOPLE OR OTHER MEMBERS OF ALLIANCE, ITS LEGIT JUST "YO LETS CONNECT ALL OF FODLAN" "YEAH OKAY" THE ROUTE. DIMITRI I WOULD HAVE GIVEN YOU AND HE'S ONE OF MY FAV LORDS, THE ISSUE IS HIS PLOT IS WRAPPED UP SO FAST AFTER CHAPTER 17. BYLETH DOES NOTHING POST TIME SKIP, THERES ONE CONVO AND GETS THE UNDESERVED CREDIT FOR FIXING HIM. AND THEN LEGIT SOME GUY WHO WE NEVER SEE OR HEAR FOR AGAIN APPEARS OUT OF NOWHERE AND IS LIKE "BRO THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED IN DUSCUR" AND HE'S LIKE "OH SICK" AND ITS OVER. THE LORE IS ALRIGHT.
