    Robin V Corrin

    in Fire Emblem Fates

    Posted

    In terms of character there's no contest, Robin easily wins. Conquest!Corrin is a moron who makes dumb decisions, granted his idiocy is justified due to his upbringing but that doesn't make him a relateable or likeable character. The only time Conquest!Corrin did something good was when he made his speech in chapter 26, but other than that he's an awful lord who I have no attachment to and give no fucks about.

    (Nitpick. I also don't like how the game heavily favours a sword based physical corrin, that isn't my style.)

    Robin was a clever tactician(and the Antichrist as Werdna put it but we'll let that slide). Him being a tactician already makes him a lot more reliable than corrin because we the players are tacticians when we play the game (nekoknight made this point before). Robin also has some character development, you see him doubting himself when he learns the truth about who he is, whereas corrin stays relatively the same. I know some people dislike the genius tactician trope, I personally don't mind it and would take it over the guy who everyone loves who is also the strongest most important dude in existence trope any day. (Robin also uses magic so bonus points.)

    Gameplay wise I'm not sure since I don't have the game, but I'm leaning towards corrin only because he seems less broken than robin.

    I wonder why they chose to give Corrin so many bloody siblings, now that I think about it.

    (You're asking too many questions thane, you know well enough that trying to comprehend some of the decisions made in this game is a futile endeavour.)

    I think 3 on each side is more than enough and the elder sisters would be the ones to get cut, from a story stand point they're just so irrelevant and I can't think of a reason to justify their inclusion. You have sakura/Elise for heartbreak, ryona/xander for an imposing threat and takumi/Leo to allow both the main character and themselves to grow.

    (If only I was a component writer I'd start my own rewrite.)

    "You're not going to like this." I liked its delivery the most.

    In terms of order how about this: alternate between the final 4 characters of each route that aren't retainers/royals. For example, kaden then Keaton then orochi then nyx then rinkah then Charlotte then hayato then Benny. Followed up by the corrinsexuals then children to finish.

    By the end of the game who are Corrin's retainers?

    Gunter,Felicia,Jakob,flora and kaze( if A rank support is obtained) are Corrin's retainers. The Silas/Effie support points out that he isn't a retainer and just a close friend of corrins.

    Headcannon wise, I have Jakob and kaze be the MU's retainers, Felicia becomes royalty through marriage with my MU, Flora quits to become leader of the ice tribe and Gunter retires.

    Opinion of Soleil?

    My reasons for disliking her are similar to what others have mentioned: boring and poor character interaction. However I also voted other because I'm not a fan of her voice,petty reason to hate her but oh well.
