Saint Rubenio

There you go.

Ah, the pain... I know exactly what you're talking about. Sorry, man. Also, I didn't know shift+enter could do that. Although, I think I just got lucky. Because my updates are always so image-heavy, the site always asks me to fullfill a captcha before posting. Now I understand why it occassionally popped up for seemingly no reason...

Hmmmm... Hm... no, not telltale, I still want games. ...minesweeper? Perfect! Ah, rats, windows 10 doesn't have that. Curse you! Okay, let's check out my steam library... perhaps there, I shall find the answer I seek. Lego games! Perfect! No way I'm losing in those! Welcome, everyone, to this new Let's Play of Lego Star Wars: the Complete Saga! I have a file at 55% already, let's go with that one so we don't have to sit through the story missions. I always liked Qui-Gon. He's a cool jedi. Die, Anakin! I've stopped the Original Trilogy from happening! Die, volatile materials! Die, bin! Die, random innocent people! Die, alien cosmonaut-- Uh... Let's... just move on. What are you laughing at, Solo?! You-- Crap! I almost dropped a major spoiler-bomb! Good thing I re-read this... nothing that can't be fixed, though! That's far more disgraceful than failing to kill an alien with a collar larger than his head! ...Sabre Knight alien? Wow. Mind-blown. Today, my totally original OC (original original character), the great jedi master of legend Wan-Obi Nobi, stronger than any other, will face off against Count Dooku. Before I forget, let's enable the stud magnet. No time to waste focusing on grabbin' coins! Prepare to face Wan-Obi Nobi's wrath, Count! No! I died? How could I have died!? These games are so easy! Okay, made it. Totally didn't die a bunch of times between these two screenshots. Now, DIE, COUNT DOODOO! I'VE SAVED THE GALAXY!! Oh, that caused the level to reset? I can't kill him right now? How stupid. Okay, fastforwarding a bit... That's got to be how he dies. He'll be left behind to die in the lava while my superior Original Character, Wan-Obi Nobi, stands victorious on this weird tower overhere. Yep, no reason at all to worry. Let us holster the lightsaber now. What?! How did you make it here?! Shit, he threw me off the tower! Oof! R-Regardless! It is irrelevant! Shove me around all you want, for it won't save you! I'll kill you with Wan-Obi Nobi's own two hands! Perish! Hah, he tried to block my strike, but he missed. These games are so easy... and so buggy! I'm clearly stabbing him through the crotch, yet he isn't taking any damage! Oi, get back here! Cowardly old fool! Cease your defiance of the laws of physics! Ow! Y-you're still more wounded than I am! Bullshit! I'm not losing! Not in a lego game! That would be... the ultimate... aaaargh! Stop flipping around, get back in my lightsaber's way, and DIE!! In whatever order you want, so long as the result is your DEATH!! Wait, what?! Where the heck do you think you're going, floor?!!? The floor below me sank into the lava!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! ... You know what? Let's just go back to FE. At least there, it is to be expected that I suffer and fail like an idiot. ... ...auuurgh... Part 27 - I could use some bOates. Heck yeah, at least that pun was a victory. Point for Ruben!

I don't see it, sorry. It might be your internet, it happens to me sometimes as well. Usually goes away after reloading the page or just giving it time to properly load. I guess being flattered is better than calling my attorneys. They're far too expensive. Count me in. Good, good. Wait, no, bad, bad, culturize yourself, young whippersnapper! But what about WRYS?! Have you ever heard the tragedy of Darth Dork-ass the poisoned? I thought not. It's not a story elitists would tell you. It's a casual legend. Darth dork-ass was a dork lord of the mutton, so dorky and so assy, he could use memes to trust nobody to build... an army. He had such knowledge of the mutton side, he could even keep the ones he cared about well-fed. The mutton side of the memes is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be... puerile. He became so dorky, the only thing he was afraid of was losing his ass, which eventually of course he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew... then his apprentice poisoned his mutton in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from hunger, but not himself. Indeed, I rate Sain NotSaul/10. - The FE7 on keeping the continuity between FE7 and 6, and my thoughts on it. This made me laugh that it probably should have. You really do hate Wil, do you not? Bwahahahahahah... just wanted to laugh. And an uglier name. What sort of name is Carjiga? It always reminded me of "vejiga", which is spanish for "bladder". You should play Tear Ring Saga. They've got tanks there. Give me a shout if you do, I'll accompany you to the door, and beyond. More like Hatchet. A cute way of handling flashbangs. I like it. Shame she can't use axes, and the levels of both Cavaliers who will gain such an ability one day were far from stellar. Son of a-- Because she'd die elsewhere? Have you ever heard the tragedy of Heroine Echidna the Village Builder? Have you ever heard the tragedy of Paladin Treck the Sleepy Mercenary? Understimating the RNG shall one day prove to be your downfall. I like dark magic better. Then again, dark magic is like the axes of magic. While on the subject, please, use Canas, he uses the axes of the trinity of magic, that has to count. No, Dayni. He may not be as bad as Saul, but that's only because he lacks brains. Hah! You wish! Again!

...is that all, son? Yes. I've told you everything I know. Hm... 'tis a disturbing tale, indeed. To take the appearance of a child and deceive his brother... despicable. I still don't know what to think about it. Sir Lance... why didn't you strike him down? What do you mean? Unbeknownst to him, you were hidden there, witnessing everything unfold. You knew that he was not my brother. I knew that he was not my brother. So why didn't you rid this world of him? I... Don't be foolish, child. He may not look so menacing, but the one who lurks within your brother's body is a very powerful sorcerer. If Lance had risked taking him down... who knows if he and you would be here right now. But if he's so powerful, why hasn't he attacked yet? If he can take down an army, why doesn't he just come and take us down? He has a weakness. There is one man he fears, for he is powerless against him. Who is that?! Bring him here! ... ... ... ...what? ...this man we speak of... uh... He's the one. He caused your brother's death, Raigh. ...! Ru-- Hush! ...what? He deserves to know, people! Besides, it's up to me whether to tell him or not! No, it's not! I'm here as well! Oh, shut up and man up-- uh, lady up! ...what's going on here? Listen, I'll tell you. But you need to understand one thing before I do. The man who caused your brother's death... he meant no harm. Perhaps he was... an incompetent fool, a stupid braggart who was way in over his head, but... he didn't... he didn't want that to happen. And to this day... he still regrets it. He still regrets all the pain he's caused. That's why... he will do anything to earn everybody's forgiveness! He'll do his best to ensure the war comes to as happy a conclusion as possible! ...Ruben... ... ...I believe you. ...! Really, you do?! Even if I didn't, there are bigger things than you and I happening here. Tell me everything. We'll find a way to stop him. We must find a way to stop him. Thank you, Raigh. Truly. ... ...such bravery... this bastard's full of surprises. Indeed... Part 26 - It was all going so well... perhaps too well. Beware the loud noises, don't suffer a heart attack or anything. If I kill anybody else with this, I'm... I don't know what I'll do. Pay attention! Huh, didn't think too much about it. Excellent. I'm not. I doubt most will either. Good, that saves me some trouble. Well look at him, Raigh's got some power now. If only he also had speed. Tate the Lady Lance? Ba dum, tssss! Well that was underwhelming. Very much so. How can she sense it? Does her part-dragon heritage means she can feel a weapon that was made to murder her? It's because she's oh so mysterious. Wait, is Raigh thinking for a second? Yeah, he is. You've come to the wrong series Raigh. Perhaps. Oh look, Wrys might help- *Sigh. Dangit Humphrey. Such foul timing! Because he's not the Hulk? aka Super Sain? Ergh... Of course he just nopes out of there. I mean, how's he going to explain all the contradictions, exactly? Yeah Raigh, I can see it. But his head should not be there. It's not a good sign for anything coming back if it looks like that. Hey, cut him some slack, he just wants his bro back. So, we're down too many units and the next Gaiden chapter is full of annoying tricks. We'll see how bad it really is next time on The Bolting Blade! If all the hints didn't make it clear, then here it goes. Spoiler alert: really bad.

Especially after you threw all subtlety out of the window and outright stole one of my jokes. Franp, go add Dayni's display of theft to the counter. Amazing. Nonsense. Your jokes are beautiful as stained Glass. Maybe so. Who knows, who cares. FTL much? Yeah, thing is, I never do that. Eh, it's never come back to bite me in the ass, anyways. Ah, yeah. When this happens, I usually just press ctr+b (not sure if that's the default bind, though) to rewind and retake the screenshot. I don't count those as dishonorable resets because then I'd have something like 125235263513485342. Well, if you bench Lyn before getting her to level 10, recruit Wallace, and unbench Lyn to get them to support together, you get find out Wallace is great. It's... sadly enough, not the most ridiculously contrived plot-reveal requirements that exist in FE7. Speaking of which, I assume you'll be getting the double x chapter, right? Or try to, at least. I think he is. It's a decent Bandit sprite. At least they used more than 3 mugs like in FE6. B-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-but MUH EARLY PEGASUS UTILITY! THAT OBVIOUSLY MAKES FLORINA BEST CAHRATER, AMIRITE?! Ahahahah. Great. Blistering barnacles... if you steal my stealing of Haddock's insults, I swear to God, I'm suing your ass. Everyone's closing eyes are great, but nobody can pull it off as well as Marth. Funny screenshots you took here. It looks like he hit him just once, but so hard, he disintegrated. Jeez. I'm really not used to seeing numbers this pathetic. Who cares about the lack of strength and speed? You're about to face an Ironman run. Survivability is all that matters. I daresay he's doing better than Sain. 'Course, it's still too early to really tell. Ah, good ol' Matthis syndrome. What would we do without you. She fell on his face, which is kinky, hence-- Sorry, sorry, shuting up now. Well, I mean, not entirely unrelated. Florina's a friend of Lyn's because plot and we're responsible for Wil having no means of weaponery to defend himself any longer. The truly unrelated people will join next chapter, if I'm not mistaken. Wait, next chapter was Erk or Dorcas? I can't remember... Hah! You wish!

Sneak peek to the next update, everyone. H It might take slightly longer than usual. Make of this what you will.

'Tis a great honour, to be the exception to the statement. I am... quite overcome! Forced reference is forced. Fun fact: I started doing LPs myself after reading your own. I was already fond of reading this sort of screenshot LP, but after seeing this LP, I figured serenes seemed like a friendly enough place to try and do my own. So yeah, I've got you to thank for that. Then again... The pirate also has force powers, apparently, since he's able to levitate above the ground after having his feet hacked off. I think that's her whole gimmick: she's like a Pegasus Shaman of sorts. She can't lift her main means of attack, but to compensate, she's got overkill speed. Still, I would recommend giving her a body ring if you end up using her. Nosferataking just isn't possible like this. Yes, this hack's palettes are really impressive, unpromoted Pascal aside. And it's only going to get better from here. This was one of those moments I really, really wished I knew japanese to read all that. What the hell happened? Why did she leave? Isn't the Ilian code supposed to go "don't show mercy to your colleagues"? Then again, what was she doing there in the first place, if she'd leave so easily after being talked to? So many questions... and more will soon pop up. Somebody needs to translate this hack. Darn, even her palette's gorgeous. No, seriously. That's a great colour combination. As opposed to the fact that she has 4 defense and 22 HP? Whoa, she got strength! Wooooooh! One of the things I liked the most about this game is how it ditches the whole "a thousand different promotion items" nonsense and just goes for a more straightforward system of having one promotion item type for everyone. It may look fancier, but I prefer to be able to promote whoever I want, whenever I want. Of course. Don't go too overboard, man.

Part 25 - We can't get a little knife-happy with Randy. 'Cause everyone who used knives in this army is dead. Reference!

Part 24 - I don't like sand. It's coarse, rough, and irritating... And it gets everywhere. You know, I've been taking a look at the first few updates again, and noticed a little thing... nothing very important, just that half of my portraits are gone. A while ago, I did a little fix to the "worried" face, erased the old version of the portrait I had uploaded to imgur, and uploaded the new one. The result is that now the first updates look like crap because I'm an incompetent fool who can't do anything right.

Part 27 - Reinforcements! So much reinforcement!

Arran: To find my end... in battle... was my one true wish... I love Arran's character. Despite being an Archanean, both his personality and his backstory are great, and how he actually develops between the two books. I find it interesting how dying before the conclusion of book 2 is a better ending for his character than surviving both books, unlike most others. Think about it: the guy hides how bad his sickness really is so that Marth doesn't send him home, and keeps overextending himself to serve him as he believes he deserves. And in the end, when his weakness and recklessness finally catch up to him, he's happy, for he knows his journey for redemption has finally come to an end. He's finally earned his own forgiveness. It's a simple quote, but it encapsulates this perfectly. My headcanon is that he recklessly charges at Lang, and when the latter runs him through with his lance, he grabs it and prevents the foul General from pulling it out, sacrificing himself to give someone else the chance to bring him down. The perfect end for a Jeigan: to die Jeiganing. Lang is also the point in the game when he truly starts to drop off (Sirius, I know, but he can still hold his own for a few chapters after Sirius joins), so I think it's a good moment for his "canonical" death. Raigh: Hngh! In this world... there are only fools... Raigh's quote is another one I'm rather fond of. It's badass, and it fits his character. I like to think that he's refering to himself as a fool too. Valter: Urggh... Gaaaaah! I find this one hilarious. Valter, the pompous murderer, the poetic psycopath, the pretentious manhunter! Valter, the great moonstone of Grado! Valter, he who shall bring death to the twins of Renais, and doom to the whole continent! ...dies with a pathetic scream. He doesn't even get a chance to cry a little like Narcian. Nope. He just screams and dies. How ironic. Lyon: Where... where did I go wrong? Oh, Lyon, where indeed. He may've liked to pretend he was in control throughout Ephraim's route, but only in his death he realised, he was mad. No matter how much he tried to think he wasn't, that's sad, unquestionable truth.

...you're sure you don't know where he is? No... but my boss left with a letter for him and some others. He left? He left where? I dunno, he just told me he'd be leaving and then he left. I thought to ask him where he was going, but he left, so... ... Well, if you don't have any more questions, I think I'll uh... mm... zzzz... zzzz... ... ...what do you mean, you don't know him? I mean I don't know him. I joined this army just a little while ago. I've never seen that Ruben you speak of. Hmm, I see... But that's enough of that. I am planning on building a new village in the Western Isles. It'll be for those left homeless by the war. I want you to help. ...what... Yeah, we could use people with a knack for magic like you. You could use that magic of yours to lift boulders, or wood, or any other heavy objects. ...I think I'll pass... You will help me? Thank you! Screw you. Is that clear enough for you? ... Hey-- LORD ROY! IT'S A TRAP! I OBJECT, LORD ROY! ...what in the world are you doing? Why, practicing, young fellow! Hey, why don't you help me with my vocal exercises? It's easy, you just have to pretend you're Lord Roy trying to lead the army, and I'll-- Leave me alone, crazy old fool! C'mon, somebody has to know something... somebody who isn't a complete idiot! ...I'm sorry, may I help you? I couldn't help but notice your discombobulation... is there something I can do? What, you? Axe guys never have a brain, that's why they can only use such a lowly, filthy, mindless sort of weapon. I've had my fair share of idiots today, I don't need anymore. I was just... Shoo! Go away! Can't you understand such simple commands? Must I also teach you how to leave? Fine, then: just use your damn legs and go back the way you came! ...uh... Urrrrrghhhhh! I've no time for this nonsense! I... and he's off... what did I ever do to him? Part 26 - Plot-heavy Pandemonium.

Likewise. For both statements. I have no idea, but... it's still no Athena x Etzel and I'm sorry for all the injokes I should probably stop now. Yeah... toooootally... Maybe he wants to ruin Lycia in order to earn Daddy's love? If so, he failed miserably. Friendly reminder that this guy is called Glass. Glass. People tend to obsess over the PEERLESS SKILLZ meme, while failing to appreciate the fact that his name is FUCKING GLASS. Father Teresa is an awesome name. Also, fun fact: this guy is a younger version of Oates, a random boss from FE6. Don't believe me? Here's Oates' portrait, courtesy of the wiki. He obviously grew older in the 20 years between FE6 and 7 (as well as a beard), but the hair's the same, the clothing style's similar, they're both blind and skilled with magic, as revealed later. See? This is what I was talking about earlier. You could've made a pun with his name, but instead opted to go for the tired meme. Gloss, Dayni. For more convenience when listening to music, I have the auto-repeat option enabled by default in VLC. This means I'm currently listening to "TEH ANIME TEH ANIME TEH ANIME TEH ANIME TEH ANIME" in a loop. He still has 6 defense. He also still has 6 defense. I imagine if Kent and Sain (and Pent) were added to FEHeroes, it'd be quite hilarious. "To beat this map, I sent Sain to help Kent kill Cain, and then sent Kent to help Sain slay Pent". Now try saying that 5 times fast. He got played hard. So hard, he shattered. Hmmm... Yes, I can definitely see it. Whoa, bipolar much, Father? Or maybe... maybe he knows Hatchet! And Hatchet knows about the liquor* cabinet! Plottwist! You need to make the priest a character in your own crappy fanfic. So that's why Oates joined the Bernian army... he lost his job after Lyn took the Mani Katti, and desperate for money, he joined the Bernian army, using his peerless magical skills to climb ranks until in FE6 he was a trusted commander, enough to be sent to retrieve the Forblaze that Athos totally didn't take with him when he died. Yeah, it's not like literally anyone with an S rank in swords could use it, amirite? Sigh... This line is where I got the idea to pointlessly extend Vernon Lundgren's chin, by the way. That, and Dursley's many chins had to be hidden somehow. Don't forget murdering all of his dates. Both his nose and his chin are so pointy and protruding, he probably killed them all trying to kiss them. Hm, nah, Lundgren's head is far from being round. Oh, you do that thing professionals do of keeping multiple savefiles, too. I don't. I probably should. Not in this game or thread, no.

Death before defeat! 11. Raigh and Hugh may not come within 100 meters of eachother. 12. On second thought, make that last thing count for Lugh as well. We... don't want Hugh to confuse him for Raigh again. 13. Clarine, this is war. Stop asking for a palace. Just be happy you get a tent all for yourself. Saul and Dorothy have to share one, and it's... really not working out very well. 14. Please stop asking Karel about his past. He's had enough. 15. Stop mindlessly praising him, as well. He's even more sick of that. 16. For crying out loud, somebody make Juno understand that she's not fit for fighting in the frontlines anymore! One of these days, Zelot's going to have a heart attack because of her recklessness!

You there! The old guy! My, that's a rather rude thing to say. I've questions for you. Straight to the point, eh? Very well. How long-- I'll listen to you after you say "please". Hmph... I've questions for you. Please. Much better. Now, go on. ...how long have you been under Roy's orders? I met him a few months before all this started. Then you must know of the first tactician of the Lycian Army. A man named Ruben, apparently. ... Do you know his whereabouts? Well, I'm... not sure. Why do you wish to know? My brother is dead, and it's his fault. I must find him. ... There's no sense in hiding it, old man. I've been snooping around. I know he's your friend. You know where he is. ...I don't know what you're talking about. But I know this: if you're already seeking revenge at this age... you won't make it to adulthood. Who are you to judge me!? Your friend murdered my brother, and so many others, yet you would defend him?! You got it wrong! Bandits killed your brother-- --Because your friend didn't care about his soldiers' lives. He's just as responsible for it as the brigands were! ...let it go, kid... this will do you no good. Very well, then. If you won't help me, I'll just have to find him on my own. And then... Don't do this, kid! Think about your brother! Would he have agreed with this senseless bloodthirst of yours?! ... I know why he joined us. I know what sent him to his death, and it wasn't Ruben. It was his desire to avenge those killed by the war. He wanted revenge, but all he got was an untimely death. And you're following him, straight to the grave! Is that truly what you want? Do you truly think that's what he would've wanted for you? ...shut up. Shut up! I'm not listening to you anymore. I'm leaving! Hold on! ...oh, dear... this is bad news. I must speak to Ruben... Part 25 - Spelunking.

Ah, LPer in-jokes. Hahahahahah... eggscellent. Go right ahead. I, too, am not that fond of him. Relax, this is Lyn's mode. It doesn't really matter until, what, Eagler's chapter? Everything prior to that is tutorial land. And even after that, it's only marginally less tutorial landish. Forget all the screencaps you want, at least until Eagler. It's strange because IntSys intended for Mark to be a self-insert, not an actual character like Bruce Lee Brewsley Damnit Dayni, another "r" and the pun would've been perfect Bewsley, so we have a guy from the XXIth century hanging around with a woman from the Middle Ages of Anime. I have but one thing to say. They... might not be too bad of a match, after all. Amazing. 2.8951797485495/2.99999999999999991 I like how Lyn's worried Sain might be after them. I mean, I would be too if I had boobs. Well, considering her facial expression... no, I don't think it did. Hey, it's not that bad. You could go the entire LP without showing people's bases, like some others. I would use you-know-who whose name begins with an "L", but you know what? I'll let you do it yourself. Fireemblem.png much? Oh, well. Better luck next time. It's also the first time I've ever noticed him there. Why does he wear tree-coloured robes? Not going to correct you there. The idea of Hausen going senile and just now remembering he had children at some point is oddly fitting as well as hilarious. Perhaps because Banditman isn't exactly a bacteria, and thus can't really make somebody ill? Bwahahah... sorry. Well, they got horses. They can rescue Lyn and Chester in order to save turns while proceeding to the next chapter. Efficiency! Magnificent pun, but you pulled a Saul there and forgot a period. Now, you don't wanna be like Saul in any way, do you? Well, that was fun. I hope I didn't go too overboard with my reply. Looking forward to the next update!

Saul, the guy who uses religion to get laid, then judges a guy for doing more or less the same. The guy who's commited all twelve deadly sins at some point. The guy who thinks with his dick. The worst Priest ever! Saul!

Hey, I'm not judging you, I was just joking. Sorry if it didn't seem that way.

Definitely looks like a wonderful babysitter, but... she ships somebody with the worst person in the world. That... worries me. Regardless, I'd say yes.

Ah, at long last! Oh, boy. That can only end well, as we both know. I expect great things out of you. Yes, I too know what it is to wake up screaming those words. I love the MC already. I don't think so, no. Also, wrong Marc, you mean Mark. Oi! How dare you disrespect the man who's, rather bafflingly, a meme! Also, this makes me happy for you, but on a personal level, it angers me. That could've been MY level! Maybe she just claimed it for herself. It's much bigger than her little, single-tile home. Not to mention, that person appears to have lost their memories. Agreed, but this game does not do her justice. Good ol' Wallace. Please tell me you'll use him. Boss abuse Lundgren if you have to, but please use the Silver General. It's already good, don't worry. Please, ignore this junk at the end. Mobile phones suck for this sort of thing, but the alternative was to wait 5 hours to get to my computer.

Hmm... Matthis. Let's spice things up. Whatever class you feel he'd be less bad in.

Gameplay > Story > Soundtrack > Visuals While I would definitely take a great game with a bad story over a bad game with a great story, having a good story is a very good bonus. Games aren't a bad tool for storytelling, and unlike what some people seem to believe (cough cough David Cage cough cough), you don't have to sacrifice everything that makes a game a game in order to make a good story. RPGs are the best examples of this, but there are also plenty of examples in other genres. It doesn't even need to be the main part of the game: Rogue Legacy's story is very secondary, yet the plottwist at the end (which I won't spoil here) blew my mind, and got me even more motivated to try and defeat the final boss. Having great gameplay isn't necessarily incompatible with having an inmersive world, interesting, well-written characters and a good, compelling plot. So, yeah, gameplay first, then story. If a game has plenty of the first and enough of the second to get me invested, then it's perfect. If it doesn't, well, so long as the gameplay is great, then I'm fine with it as well. I also appreciate a good soundtrack. Heck, I've come to know about some games through their soundtrack: I started to play Castlevania: Order of Eclessia after listening to the personal theme of my profile picture's character. I liked it that much. Great music always makes things better, and while it's not a gamebreaking issue if the music sucks, it's definitely an issue. Terraria is the first game that comes to my mind when talking about this: I liked that one, but I disliked the music so much, I muted it and for the longest time, just listened to my own music while playing it. Of course, this is all nothing more than my opinion. Then, at the very bottom, are the visuals. Good graphics are nice, but as long as I can make out what's going on in one way or another, I'm good, and I'm certainly not going to buy a game just for its graphics.

Samson trying to kill Sheena in FE12 is, in my opinion, even more egregious than most of the other Matthis syndrome cases in the Archanea series, because while I can sort of wrap my head around Astram not recognizing Midia (Paladins use helmets in combat, after all), Matthis panicking and throwing javelins at everything that moves, Wendell just trying to defend himself (even though he clearly attacks first most of the time) and Navarre being insane, Samson just has no excuses. The only people in the throne room are himself and Sheena (so it's not like he could've confused her for an Archanean General or something), he knows Sheena, Sheena knows him, they're in very good terms (heck, it's made very clear that they're in love), neither of them are established to have mental problems, Samson's a level-headed, experienced warrior... yet Samson will gleefully try to murder Sheena if she doesn't speak to him inmediately after being recruited by Marth. I just cannot think of any reason to excuse such behavior. Not even a lame, easily countered reason, like the ones I came up with in the first paragraph. I've got nothing. Seeing how they fixed Sheena being able to kill her own troops in the remake, it's rather baffling that they'd forget about this. Was it so hard to make it so Samson would turn blue at the same time as Sheena? I'm not saying any of the other Matthis syndrome cases aren't stupid, they very much are, but this is even more so.

Hey, I'm just gonna edit this since it won't allow me to do it in the original post. I really should make an effort to proofread my shit better. I make a joke with a gigantic, obnoxious image, and then I forget to write half of the punchline. I impress myself sometimes... only way this could get worse is if now I get banned because bikinis. I hope that doesn't come to pass...
