List 2 things that you believed for many years

How about we each list 2 things about A Fire Emblem game or character that we for many years we believed was true but eventually discovered wasn't true. Here's mine

In Fire Emblem 7 I didn't think that Dorcas would leave Natasha to help Lyn, which means I didn't know he could be recruited and I deliberately let him die in Chapter 4(Lyn Mode)

In Fire Emblem 10/Radiant Dawn, I believed that Valtome was A Cross-Dressing Female that had the kind of harsh facial features that you'd normally associate with a man and not with a women

I used to think Waifu Emblem was the entire series, as a result of Fates and Awakening being my only real early exposure to the series. (and actually had to explain to a friend that the entire series isn't Waifu Emblem since his first exposure to the series also was only Fates and Awakening.)

I also thought for a good while that Awakening had to actually be a sequel with a pre-existing set of characters, simply because Robin's introduction to everyone is so awkward I assumed it was a bit like what Sonic Forces did where they just threw in your OC with characters that already existed.

In Awakening, I thought that the Kris's Confect item took its name from your avatar due to my avatar coincidentally being named Kris (I didn't know about the FE12 character at the time; I just like the name). It was only when I started a second file with the name "Robin" that I noticed something was off.

In Gaiden/Shadows of Valentia, I thought Alm and Celica were cousins, and then they kissed.

It took me a long time to finally figure out what the Con stat did in the GBA games. Both when I first played them, and even after doing a lot of lurking on this site, I just assumed it was your strength stat that interacted with the weapon's weight. After looking at my florina getting doubled when she held a steel lance, I figured my theory was solid.

You're gonna have to explain this one to me, chief.

There is a lot of...porn art of Spiderman and Lucina. I think it's all from one person who keeps commissioning it.

I'm as dumbfounded as you.

I thought Land of Swirling Sands was a map theme instead of an event theme. Got mad when I got to that part of FE7 (I never owned my own copy ok) and Precious Things played in the actual battle.

That's the only one I have.

I believed the Physic staff was the Psychic staff for an embarrassing long time, because it's not like you ever need to read these weapon names. Plus it sort of made sense. Psychics do stuff at distance and the staff does why normal healing staffs do, only at a distance.

I believed Haar was an enemy on my first playthrough of Radiant Dawn (also my first playthrough of any Fire Emblem game). Cause the dude rocks the eye patch and black spikes if you're only half paying attention to what little dialogue he has prerecruitment he looks like a villain. So completely missed out on the wonder boy that is the flying tank. Bit weird considering he has a lot of plot dialogue after that in Part 2. You also have to wonder with characters such as him, where they end up if you don't recruit them. Because it seems highly unlikely Haar wouldn't find himself getting wrapped up in the war eventually (maybe even on Daein's side if he goes back to Jill). But nope. He just vanishes.

They do in that one chapter in Radiant Dawn (and they've always gotten fortress/throne boosts like other units I believe).

I think he's back actually, but I never really bothered to check.

Anyway, seconding Jotari on initially misreading "Physic" as "Psychic."

I also still read "L'Arachel" as "Lil' Archel."

You mean part 2 prologue? And as far as I know, flying units don't get bonuses from thrones and forts (they still get the healing that you receive when you are on those spaces when your phase begins, though).

Hmm. It appears you're correct. Narcian really should have been a roving boss in light of that.

There are many things I believed for years, but since you asked for TWO:

1) I could make Fiona or Vika (from Radiant Dawn) good characters if I just grinded enough.

2) I could give Faye (from Echoes) a happy ending if I paired her with a non-Alm character.

2: Never go for the mounted promotions. Movement is a dump stat that doesn't even work in the arena

Oh wow XD That's...Oh wow, just oh wow.
