Sunwoo Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 I agree that Sumia doesn't deserve all the hate she gets, but I think the one thing that really differentiates Sumia and Olivia for me is probably Sumia's "can't-do-anything-right"-ness. Olivia's big issue is her stage fright and her "hazukashii desu" tendencies, which is exaggerated but I can deal with it. I liked Sumia in MU's support, where she was an avid reader who was unconfident in herself that she wanted to pretend to be someone else. I don't like her in Frederick and Gaius' supports where she screws up at whatever she tries to do and doesn't really "improve" at doing anything right and yet Frederick and Gaius both fall for her somehow. She's okay in Henry's support, except for the C, and my biggest problems with her in Chrom's support are actually not the pies, but that Chrom's confession to her in the S is lackluster and that she apparently took fifteen tries to make one simple pie in the B. I guess my problem with Sumia is that the game loves to beat you over the head with the fact that "she can't really do anything right, but this is supposed to be cute".

shadowofchaos Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 (edited) Well what I meant was that they take shots at her for it because "Chrom deserves a more capable woman... like MU/Female Avatar." ...if they were going that statement, they should at least acknowledge Sully in that sense. But no, they usually *ONLY* like FeMU x Chrom and/or Olivia x Chrom. ...the latter being utterly hypocritical considering both Olivia and Sumia have their "cutesy" gimmicks. But yeah... the lampshading. The freaking lampshading is my big beef with it. At least Sigurd and Diadora has the "player doesn't have a choice" flag to make it believable. And please don't put more bait in front of me. I don't want to deteriorate to a deranged fanboy on a crusade with a fan favorite pairing.

I don't disagree with you that the "Chrom deserves a more capable woman like MU/Female Avatar" is a stupid concept. First because it implies that only a certain kind of woman is "deserving" of a man/certain type of man. Not to mention that the idea of "deserving" someone is also stupid and makes the other person sound like a prize or something. I honestly think people who say these kinds of things are just trying to justify their ship and not thinking about anything more than that.

You're a kind person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZemZem Posted August 1, 2013 Author Share Posted August 1, 2013 pretend your male avatar is female and yuri Sumia wait i can yuri both sumia AND cynthia thanks CR! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PM ME MARIANNE ART Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 (edited) Or you can just do pairings based on optimization and bypass all the fanboys/girls. I think most people do Chrom and Olivia because Luna and RK on Inigo. Edited August 1, 2013 by Duck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chibster Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 The first time I played(just to get through the story) I just married her off to Libra, mainly because I barely used them! XD But...in my 2nd file, I married her off to Chrom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
