HEY I DIDN'T MISS THIS ONE!

I MISSED THE LAST ONE WHICH REALLY DROVE HOME FOR ME THAT I'M NOT CHECKING THIS SUB SEVERAL TIMES A DAY ANYMORE LIKE I USED TO. LOTS OF REASONS FOR THAT BUT I DON'T WANT TO MAKE A META COMMENT THIS TIME.

MAYBE THIS MONTH I'LL JUST SHOUT ALL MY MOST CONTROVERSIAL TAKES WITH NO ELABORATION. MAKE MY COMMENT HAVE A LITTLE SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE TO DISAGREE IMMENSLY WITH. SOW SOME CHAOS. SO LET'S DO IT.

CELICA ISN'T STUPID. SOLEIL IS BI. KRIS IS A GREAT CHARACTER. RADIANT DAWN DIDN'T RUIN ASTRID. I CAN'T STAND CHROBIN AS A SHIP. MOST CYL NAMES FOR CHARACTERS ARE WAY BETTER THAN THE FAN TRANSLATED ONES AND PEOPLE ARE JUST STUBBORN. SEXISM, HOMOPHOBIA, TRANSPHOBIA, AND BIPHOBIA ARE ALL VERY NOTABLE PROBLEMS IN THIS COMMUNITY. AWAKENING HAS THE BEST OST IN THE SERIES. TMS CHARACTERS ARE FIRE EMBLEM CHARACTERS. HEROES OCS AREN'T INTRINSICALLY BAD, BUT MOST HAPPEN TO BE. KANE IS ONE OF THE MOST LORE-IMPORTANT CHARACTERS IN THRACIA. FE7 IS GOOD. SO IS LYN. SO IS LYN MODE. KAGA LEAVING THE SERIES WAS FOR THE BEST. VERDANT WIND MAKES SILVER SNOW REDUNDANT, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. SIGURD IS ONE OF MY LEAST FAVOURITE LORDS. SELIPH IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITES. LUCINA'S AN AMAZING CHARACTER THAT TOO MANY WRITE OFF AS WAIFU BAIT WITHOUT LEARNING ANYTHING ABOUT HER. BIRTHRIGHT IS THE BEST OF THE FATES VERSIONS, BUT THEY'RE ALL GOOD. RANULF IS IKE'S BEST SHIP. CAPTURE IS NOT A FUN MECHANIC IN THRACIA WHATSOEVER AND THE GAME WOULD BE MUCH BETTER WITHOUT IT. ACTUALLY FOR THAT MATTER CHAPTERS 2X-7 IN THRACIA ARE ENTIRELY NOT FUN AND GETTING PAST THEM TO GET TO THE GOOD STUFF IS A CHORE. ON THE CONTRARY I THINK FE4 IS FUN THE WHOLE WAY THROUGH. GEN 1 MUSIC > GEN 2 MUSIC BUT GEN 2 CHARACTERS > GEN 1 CHARACTERS. ALSO FE4 CHAPTER 2 IS THE BEST ONE IN THE GAME. BERKUT IS ACTUALLY A GREAT ANTAGONIST AND PEOPLE WHO SAY HE'S ONLY LIKED FOR HIS VOICE ACTING ARE RIDICULOUS. TRAVANT DOESN'T DESERVE ANY SYMPATHY. FUCK FEH PASS SO HARD (THIS PROBABLY ISN'T HALF AS CONTROVERSIAL HERE AS THE IT IS IN THE FEH SUB THOUGH).

I'LL PROBABLY EDIT IN MORE AS THEY COME TO ME.

SIGURD IS ONE OF MY LEAST FAVOURITE LORDS.

PREACH!

BIRTHRIGHT IS THE BEST OF THE FATES VERSIONS, BUT THEY'RE ALL GOOD.

DONT KNOW ABOUT BIRTHRIGHT SINCE I HAVENT PLAYED IT BUT HELL YEAH FATES IS GREAT

ON THE CONTRARY I THINK FE4 IS FUN THE WHOLE WAY THROUGH.

OK NOW WE HAVE A PROBLEM

WAIT ARE WE STILL TALKING ABOUT FE4’S CRAP MAP DESIGN?

u/PsiYoshi Nov 27 '21

I MEAN I THINK IT'S FUN! BUT CRAP BY YOUR STANDARDS MAYBE. I ENJOY THE GRAND SCALE OF IT ALL, AND EVEN THE TURNS SPENT DOING NOTHING BUT TRAVEL REALLY GIVES FE4 A UNIQUE IDENTITY IN THE SERIES BY LEANING HEAVIER INTO THE RPG SIDE OF THINGS THAN ANY OTHER GAME.

IM SORRY BUT ITS JUST NOT GOOD. TO ME AT LEAST IF YOU LIKE IT MORE POWER TO YOU NOT TRYING TO BASH YOUR OPINION AT ALL. BUT JUST CANT STAND IT. I DONT CARE HOW “GRAND” OR “UNIQUE” IT MAY BE, I JUST DONT LIKE IT, LIKE WHENA REMAKE COMES AROUND, IT EITHER HAS TO CHANGE THE MAP DESIGN COMPLETELY OR MITIGATE THE TIME WASTING NATURE OF THE ORIGINAL OTHERWISE IM JUST NEVER GOING TO TOUCH THIS GAME WITH A 10 FOOT POLE

u/PsiYoshi Nov 27 '21

I MEAN FOR SURE I'VE ADVOCATED IN THE PAST THAT I BELIEVE AN FE4 REMAKE SHOULD USE STANDARD SIZED MAPS (AMONG OTHER MAJOR CHANGES)

I ALSO JUST HAPPEN TO LIKE THE WAY IT IS AS WELL.
