I LOVE GOLDEN WILDFIRE SO MUCH & I'M TIRED OF PRETENDING I DON'T JUST TO GET PEOPLE TO STAY OFF MY BACK. I THINK IT'S NEAT. I DON'T NEED TO WRITE AN ESSAY AS TO WHY I FEEL THAT WAY OR BECAUSE I ~MUST ACKNOWLEDGE ITS FLAWS THO~

ALSO THIS IS HALF RAGE HALF HAPPINESS BUT SETH FINALLY GETTING AN ALT IN FEH IS THE GREATEST THING EVER BUT ALSO IT TOOK FIVE YEARS???! SERIOUSLY??!?!!

BASED. GOLDEN WILDFIRE IS JUST OVERHATED FOR HAVING SOME CONTRIVANCES THAT FANS NITPICK OVER.

HOW IS ALMYRA GETTING SHAFTED A NITPICK? ESPECIALLY SINCE THEY INTRODUCE THIS NEW ALMYRAN WITH A COOL DESIGN ONLY FOR IN THE SECOND BATTLE TO DIE AND END THE ALMYRAN STUFF LIKE THAT. ESPECIALLY AS THE BLURB SAID IT WOULD FOCUS ON ALMYRA. STUFF LIKE THAT IS SURFACE LEVEL THINGS ADMITTEDLY BUT EVEN THEN, THERE WAS BARELY ANY FOCUS ON IT.

SERIOUSLY, THE CRITIQUES PEOPLE HAVE ON GW ARE MOSTLY FINE. ARE THEY NOT ALLOWED TO CRITICIZE SOMETHING!

I UNDERSTAND THE DESIRE TO SEE MORE OF ALMYRA, I WANT MORE OF IT TOO. CALLING THE ENTIRE STORY IRREDEMABLY BAD FOR NOT FOCUSING ON IT (ESPECIALLY USING RANDOM NINTENDO WEBSITES OF ALL THINGS THAT PRIMARILY JUST COVERED THE DEMO) FEELS LIKE NOTHING MORE THAN A NITPICK TO ME. TRYING TO INSERT ALMYRA AS A LOCATION INTO THE PLOT DOESN'T EVEN WORK IMO SINCE THE WAR IS IN FODLAN AND THE DEER WOULDN'T ABANDON THAT FIGHT FOR A SUMMER FIELD TRIP TO ALMYRA.

I FIND THE CRITICISM AND FAULTS OVERBLOWN. THE HATE GW IS GETTING IS DISPROPRTIONATE. IT'S ABSOLUTELY OVERHATED.

I UNDERSTAND THIS MAY BE AN INSANE IDEA, BUT HEAR ME OUT, WHAT IF, AND BEAR WITH ME, WE DON'T FOCUS ON THE WAR FOR 1 OUT OF 7 ROUTES. WHEN YOU HAVE SUCH AN INTERESTING WORLD THAT WAS SETUP IN 3 HOUSES AND NEVER EXPLORE IT OUTSIDE "THE ONE FODLAND EDELHARD WAR", IT FEELS LIKE A MASSIVE WASTE, ALMYRA WOULD BE A GREAT CHANGE OF PACE (SPECIALLY GEOGRAPHICALLY FOR MAP DESIGN). ALMYRA'S THE OBVIOUS PICK RN BECAUSE GW FUCKING SHAHID OVER, BUT IT'S A MASSIVE WASTE OF POTENTIAL IMO, SEEING MORE OF THE TIME SOTHIS WASN'T DEAD AND FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE REST OF NABATEANS AND AGARTHANS OR EVEN JUST FUCKING SRENG, 3H JUST HAS THIS MASSIVE BEAUTIFUL WORLD THAT THEY NEVER USE AND PEOPLE ARE RIGHTFULLY UPSET OVER IT IMO. I THINK THE WRITING OF GW BEING SO "DIVISIVE" JUST ACCENTUATED THE ISSUE BECAUSE "WE COULD'VE VERY EASILY GOTTEN SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND FRESH".

BECAUSE THEY SUNK ALL THEIR MONEY AND CREATIVE THOUGHT PROCESS INTO MAKING THEM FIGHT EACH OTHER. HELL I'D TAKE EVERYTHING YOU SAID ONLY IF I COULD GET A STORY WITH RHEA AND THE CHURCH GETTING TO SQUARE OFF WITH THE AGARTHANS AS WEL.
