I think it's because his death was the trigger to his complete madness, so Anankos doesn't want to see him. He doesn't want to see the person that he murdered when the person only tried to reach out to him.

This was enjoyable. I have some nitpicks, but I think the ending with the recruitment dialogue was the best part. Edelgard never wanted genocide. She wanted Nabateans to just no longer meddle in humanity's affairs any longer.

So far, it looks like a port. Might get it if it has something new.

No please Rita Repulsa, kill them. They committed the mortal sin of (albeit unintentionally) enabling Jeritza's sick fetishes. Now, no one in Askr will be safe from that maniac.
Great, now I gotta do this.

Agree 100%.Jeralt didn’t make sad like it should.Jeralt death to me was basically queen Mikoto without boobs and dick kinda death.I Byleth were just silent without being an avatar.Someone who is quiet and passive becoming slowly more talkative I would relate but I can’t.Take the avatar Intys or make them random village that are non essential but a cool addition.It takes immersion when the teacher is getting stuffed explained to him while the students says that they are amazing as a teacher.I didn’t do shit guys.
Silence isn't what made the scene. It was the fact that Byleth, who has actively been almost emotionless the entire time and only recently started showing emotion, to cry at Jeralt dying is the thing about this scene.
Should Jeralt have gotten more development? Sure. But the scene isn't bad because the effects are still felt, especially in the aftermath, where everyone is affected and Byleth is in a slump the entire time.

This reminds me of that one Naruto filler episode of trying to learn Kakashi's face. And when they jsut asked at the end, Kakashi revealed that "Behind this mask... is another mask."

Speaking of Dimitri... how do you think he'd feel about the whole Claudelgard thing? Pre-skip, I mean. I can just picture Claude offering her a dance at the ball while Dimitri glares daggers (I had to. Sorry.) at him from the punch table lol
Maybe Sylvain gets in on the act too just to screw with him 😛
Would have made the characters interact more and actually give the tragedy of the three going to war more depth.

If we're just generally sharing ideas now, I would definitely have a major facet of Claude's character arc being trying to get into Edelgard's pants in order to enact a political marriage to unite Fodlan, though Edelgard would largely ignore his advances in Part 1, but might actually agree to it in certain Part 2 routes depending on how her war is going. Course this would necessitate a rewrite from the ground up where Claude, Dimitri and Edelgard are actually characters in Part 1, as none of them are until the Holy Tomb chapter (and yeah, I include the lord you're currently with in any given route, you might get to see their character, but the proof is in the pudding as to how irrelevant they are in Part 1 in how they can so easily be substituted without a single damn thing changing).
As someone that ships Edelgard and Claude, I very much approve quite a lot of this. XD

Sounds like an idea for a better VW route lol
Claude just packs up and says "Screw y'all, we're going back to Almyra!"
Sounds like how SS Claude ended up.

The obvious betrayal. Games have developed the bad habit of making'' shocking'' betrayals far too easy to predict and the fact that its such a common trope just ensures the audience goes in expecting the plot important mentor to betray them. The most interesting take on this was the original Xenoblade where the traitor might have actually been a really surprising twist if the game hadn't made him mumble to himself suspiciously whenever the main characters weren't paying attention to him.
To be honest, even then you don't really get it since we've been going on about what seemed to be a general good vs. evil story at first. It's only when it happens that you really get what's happening.

Riegan's Law, after the chill Claude fans who sit back and watch as the constant flame wars between Edelgard and Rhea/Dimitri fans rage on.
Even Claude fans aren't free from this, but this is probably made worse due to what Joe said about Edelgard, which sparked some fans to also join the same page as Rhea/Dimitri fans.

I was actually more thinking of Kratos and Scorpion.
Sasuke didn't need additional revenge, his target just changed because he had the wrong one. But Kratos and Scorpion got their revenge against the actual culprit and then the next game decided to have some other characters slight them which then supposedly justified extreme retribution.
Didn't we have a Mortal Kombat movie recently with Scorpion trying to get revenge?
SpoilerHe first thought it was Sub-Zero, but then learned it was Quan Chi?

I’m just curious of why we’re so hung up on the moral implications of Edelgard at the holy tomb. When it comes to morality in fiction, I find its best not to think on it too much as that can lead dangerously close into nitpicking territory where the overall thematic point is being missed in favor of moral bias.
Because Edelgard is a morally divisive character, everyone feels the need to nitpick the slightest thing about her.
And no, not just in regards to criticism. Defenders also nitpick about things she does right just to push their beliefs too. That or nitpick the other characters in retaliation.
Both sides aren't free of nitpicking.

Look, you don't even know how bad those quotes pissed me off man! xD I was sitting there going "Bitch try me! I will create a whole ass gun just to shoot you with!" I don't know why that cliche pisses me off so badly but it really does!
I get you. Like, why the hell is a guy threatening me my ally? Why do I gotta put up with their shit?

True but it wouldn't be hard to replace a generic mage accompanying the new heroes with Ishtar or a generic wyvren rider with Laegjarn.
Even tying in the new heroes with the theme shouldn't be hard. Even the one sentence each of em get before a mission would be enough. Just have Lugh says he's mortified about fighting for the realm of the dead, or how commander Lif is rough around the edges but that he can feel he's a nice guy deep down. Though that's really a problem all the books have. Those Black Fang members that show up in Surtr's palace could easy have a token line about being hired to fight, or Loki telling em Alfonse is a bad prince.
That's a fair point. They always just focus on the new heroes, but they could stand to place in other heroes now that we have so many characters at this point.

I guess the only places where book 3 doesn't win is its theme because it kinda squanders that. The theme of the book is death. We're fighting the realm of the death, the incarnations of death and an army of the dead. That was the general idea but it never came across. Aside from Gustav we never get to fight any dead figures from the series. Neither tragically fallen Heroes like Eldigan, Emmeryin or Greil, or even the dead Fire Emblem Heroes OC's like Surtr despite this being foreshadowed at the end of book 2. And while fighting future versions of Alfonse and Veronica is a twist that paid off I would argue that it does take away from the theme that you're not fighting the dead former sovereigns of Askr and Embla. I guess the realm of the death just being a boring swamp with some torture equipment laying around also isn't helping to show that Alfonse really descended into the underworld.
That's the problem with this game. Chapters are always released with conjunction to the release of new heroes.

Thank you for the example - as it provides the nail-in-the-coffin to "Edelgard is their friend"! After all, what kind of friend wouldn't invite her classmates to her own coronation? I don't see Bernadetta ever forgiving Edelgard for not saving her a slice of cake, at least! And before anyone siezes on this as a serious argument, it's a jest.
LOL XD It went like this:
QuoteBE Students: Weren't we promised cake?
Edelgard: The cake is a lie.
BE Student: *gasp*
3 minutes ago, Shanty Pete's 1st Mate said:Yeah, this is confusing. Hanneman speculates that Edelgard was after the Crest Stones to create Demonic Beasts - and the game doesn't de-confirm this. But during the assault on Garreg Mach (in the cutscene), a bunch of Demonic Beasts attack Rhea, regardless of whether she succeeded in stealing any Crest Stones. So, the Empire (and TWSITD) was able to mass-produce Demonic Beasts already, but they wanted to produce even more massively? Or, Hanneman was wrong, and the Empire's intent was to... make weapons? Aymr's existence suggests this as a serious possibility.
Also - what happens to the Crest Stones post-skip? In every route, the Empire overtakes Garreg Mach after the battle in chapter 12. Does Edelgard go back down to the Holy Tomb, to take the Crest Stones, and use them for the war effort? Does a senior Church member, such as Seteth, take them and flee? When we play the Rhealogue (in non-CF routes), are the Crest Stones still there? I think the first scenario (Edelgard revisits the Holy Tomb to take them) is most likely, but unless I'm mistaken, the game never really follows up on the topic. They're a MacGuffin for a single chapter that proceed to disappear from relevance or mention.
That's a good point. In every route, Garreg Mach falls. Edelgard oughta have full access to the Crest Stones from the Holy Tomb as a result. Unless Rhea moved them all to a more secure location.
Then again, there were apparently Crest Stones under the palace in Fhirdiad, which Dedue used.
Some people theorize that Edelgard was trying to stop whatever Rhea was trying to accomplish using Byleth, but I'm meh on that, given that she never questioned what Rhea was trying to do there.

That character that apparently has to be present in every RPG that wants to threaten you like you can't rip them limb from limb and scatter their remains across town. This is not applicable to big story villains, it's always either an ally or a nobody NPC that's around for like 5 seconds and this is one of the areas where I prefer a game like Fallout because you can shoot these people in the face! Please games follow this example and only include those characters when I can beat the snot out of them, thank you!
Right. XD

Dimitri: If you insist that you cannot...then I will continue to use you and your friends until the flesh falls from your bones.
Byleth: So how many detentions do you want? Or perhaps a more disciplinary action with the business end of the Sword of the Creator? Your choice.

Does Hubert appear before the fight? He's not fought on the map. But even so, this is before any public declaration of Edelgard's coronation has come out. So they might not understand the gravity of his words. Or they might disbelieve him.
Edelgard called herself the Adrestian Emperor as well when she commanded the troops to steal the Crest Stones.
QuoteEdelgard: I'm sorry, my teacher. I cut this path, and now I must follow it. My friends, I ask that all of you stay back. It is not my intention to fight you. (to her troops) By order of the Adrestian emperor, Edelgard von Hresvelg, I command you to collect the Crest Stones! If anyone attempts to stop us, kill them!
They wouldn't have any reason to disbelieve it. I think only Byleth knew it at the time since he attended her coronation.
3 minutes ago, Shanty Pete's 1st Mate said:And I share the view that it shouldn't play out as it did on BL/GD - as I proposed, I think a better plan would be for Edelgard and Hubert to use the Holy Tomb visit to gather intel, which they could later use for a furtive break-in. Of course, that doesn't allow for a dramatic or cool battle.
It feels weird overall that the Holy Tomb even had such a raid all of a sudden. Doesn't even seem like the Crest Stones were even necessary to her. In GD, she even claims that she got what she was there for, even if she failed to get a single Crest Stone.
So what Azura's father just really bad at fighting or something?
in Fire Emblem Fates

No, because Anankos only went insane after killing Azura's father.
Valla was only brought to ruin upon Azura;s generation.
