  1. This is so weird to me. You cannot get Silver Snow instead of Black Eagles. Silver Snow IS Black Eagles. It is the route those characters were clearly conceived and designed for. These characters feel desperately out of place in Crimson Flower. Characters like Linhardt, a pacifist, or Petra, a hostage, or Dorothea, who seems confused as to why she's even there. Silver Snow is the route where you build a strong connection to edelgard and Hubert and that connection takes center stage throughout the war phase, which you fight alongside the Black Eagles. It was advertised. Frankly, I wish people would stop saying "church route." It's the Black Eagles route. If there is one canon route in this game... it's silver snow. It answers everything, it has the biggest set pieces, it is the most all encompassing without leaving major plot points unfinished, and it has what was clearly intended to be the games true final boss. It's not my favourite route. (azure moon for life.) But it's a total shame that people are playing the less coherent VW and CF routes and avoiding this one.
  2. Silver snow is actually the "real" version of the route, I would say, with Verdant Wind being the copy. Scenes like the ones in Enbarr barely make sense with Claude. Its worth seeing those scenes in their original context. It also recontextualizes the Black Eagles as characters. If you are primarily only interested in seeing unique maps, then sure, skip either Silver Snow or Verdant Wind or even both, since many maps are shared with Azure Moon. But if you care about the characters or the story or just decent narrative flow, it's worth seeing both, for sure.
