So... That would make sense, Wind is the most similar thing to a Heaven affinity. I think Eliwood was a wild card element wise, because his affinity (Anima) made him viable for... everything really xD (and to be fair, Wind is the element that has the least amount of characters that clearly fit it as "their element", and that would be Lyn and Claude; Water could have a similar problem if wasn't by the fact Fates has a ton of characters that have potential as Water Themed, and they haven't even used the most obvious choice of Water yet). I think the elements will be distribute in this way for the next characters. Fire: (Sanaki?) Water: Corrin (potentially Xander), Dimitri Wind: Claude, (Elincia?) Earth: Micaiah, Byleth, (Potentially Sigurd?)

l like the idea of an epilogue chapter, though I'm not sure how I'd write it; I'm sure Ike's sudden leaving of Tellius would be expanded in some capacity here,.

Well, I can see the comparison, after all both of them are sheltered naive idealists, which reality ends up punching them in the face, specially Ike (he got punched like three times in the beginning of the story I believe). Oh yeah, in Sacred Stones you can actually choose if you want to "shaft" or not Eirika; and she still had the first third of Sacred Stones even if you decided to go for Ephraim for the rest of the game. The other female lords suffer "overshadow" problems to various degrees. BTW, you are the Severa icon? Why are you now a Kyubi?

I believe the mode released in the time when our second Pair Up Legend (Alm). I need to check it xD

I personally believe that Gacha Games should have an special label in ratings, and the games that include them should be (at the very least) Mature rated (+17), I don't believe they'll be ban, but we need something to avoid... problems. Like how some children "accidentally" drained their parents Bank Account using money for FIFA, in order to get their desired soccer player (and other similar stories with games that are supposed to be for CHILDREN).

They actually pulled of this with Basilio and Walhart, and I found it kind of exciting how he only really survived the first encounter thanks to technically game mechanics, he was left almost dead after that battle.

As far as I'm aware, the only person that had previously knowledge of the Archanea games lore among the writers was Maeda himself (because he was the one that wrote the Scenario of the remakes)... I personally believe consistency with old lore was very low in their priorities considering this game suffer from being a very last game; this game didn't want to be subject to a particular lore; the game biggest priority was being and homage to everything Fire Emblem, and I think the only reason why Plegia and Ylisse are Archanea because of these homages, that just happens to be the continent with the most amount of iconic stuff in the franchise, specially from the perspective of japanese... They compromised many things of the world (and probably also a good reason why they decided to make such a big jump in time) for the sake of well... to put it bluntly... fanservice, but isn't just the sexual one that one only really applies to Tiki in this case considering what was previously mentioned; many things are... weird, for the sake of fanservice. Though, something particularly funny about it, while it's clear Ylisse ended up being a mess overall, Valm actually looks like something that Valentia could eventually turn up after two thousand years; considering how few empires actually managed to stay for that long, and how we have some hints of some asian-like elements in Valentia since the original Gaiden.

Alm only really needed to don't be a coward and he would accomplish destiny because he was fated to do so, it was inevitable, unavoidable. just like a Requiem.

I think it's okay if some options are better than others; after all we don't know it, other players will get them anyway... we just need to avoid making options without any kind of niche.

I actually like the term Mary Sue, it's way to subjective, but I believe there is one very important factor that should be taken in consideration when labeling someone as a Mary Sue. How they work in the narrative? You can have a "perfect" character, but if that perfection actually works in the context of the world, then people won't mind it (like say... Superman, he's a perfect character in a way, which it makes a bit boring more than anything, but isn't something that will actively annoy the readers/viewers). If a character bends the narrative in ways that doesn't make any sense, and only does so for the sake of making that character look better (I like my nonsense when is done for the sake of comedy or to do some over the top stuff) In that case we have a potential Mary Sue, now we need to check how prevalent these "anomalities" are.

Oh that is cool!; I don't know about Korean culture, but I always found cool to find all this stuff which is quite different of what I'm used to see, they represent other cultures and identities, other ways of thinking and other ways of viewing life... Yeah I don't expect either, unless somehow Korea turns into a more important public for IS, which is unlikely

How did you found the pictures? Well, I guess that is the deal with having some limitations about the origin of the characters, unless of course, IS decides to create a pseudo-Korea in the future. Well, at least there is hope that not everything will be boring Western suits and kimonos thanks to Khalid... I wonder how the traditional persian wedding outfits look like

Gareth sounds that mundane for a dragon name? Well, that is kind of funny because Gareth literally only exists in the side-lines before being playable in 4-F-4.

Character wise: Micaiah, she is also my overall favorite character, I have developed an interesting attraction to her I'm not sure if I can't explain right now, but I really like her character and how unique her role and everything is played in the story. Unit-wise: Well this is a bit weird, I enjoy two kinds of units in FE, the ones that are very strong and the ones that are very unique... So I think I'm going to answer Micaiah; because she is a quite weird character to use, but manages to always do something thanks to all her traits, Sacrifice can help in a whim, Thani is a very cool weapon, and in Part 3 onwards she has access to Physic, which is always cool too.

Yeah, but that still makes him competitive to this date, I just found it weird; I would have imagined they would have throw us something different, something that wouldn't be less appealing and have more "demote feeling" like... Knoll Artur?

That banner was weird... it's auto demote was Ross (a trainee unit, which a very rarely given to F2P after launch), the demote was a dancer, and the Star of the Banner was pretty much a Special Hero.

I wonder if Fodlan was ever great...

Oh yeah, I usually assume Sothe is around 17 years old in RD, but the script at least kind of confirms how young Kid Sothe would be.

So he was around 7~8 years old? Thanks for the information!

I'll go as far as to say the next banner will be Awakening.

Well, if you want to mention a difference, Corrin actually grew up with them since he/she was an infant (which where the issue applies), Sothe was a teenager, probably a youngish one (10 years?), but he was already self aware of his non-relationship to Micaiah.

Nah, so far she has got an alt more or less to a one year pace. OG Micaiah: January 2018 HS Micaiah: August 2018 QoD Micaiah: August 2019 (and this was voted by the fans) DWD Micaiah/Sothe: May 2020 Nothing out of the ordinary.

Nailah and Rafiel is actually a canon thing as far as I remember, though it was confirmed in material outside the game.

It must be from Hinata, he's the guy from the shadow besides Oboro.

It's Soren more popular that Mia/Wayu? I don't remember the scores right now, but I just want to be sure.
