If the choices influence the game this much, the replay value is going to be pretty intense with people trying to find what choices keep each unit alive.

By the time we get the game tho, that might be a bit lost for some of us

Why is everyone (or some) people saying "Blame Takumi"?

Ah, he has a rather cold personality, so a lot of people dislike him, I think? People started joking that "Sakura died wtf Takumi" or something. I think that's it, at least.

Wrong.

It's a meme coined from a joke.

Long story short, people on a stream started blaming Takumi for whatever bad thing happened on the stream and it snowballed out of control.

What Takumi has done (not actual plot spoilers):

  • He's the reason why Hoshido and Nohr can't get along
  • He's the reason why Dragons and humans can't get along
  • He started the Scouring
  • He is Medeus' grandfather
  • He burned down Lugh and Chad's orphange
  • He is the reason why Zephiel is evil
  • He was the one who killed Fado
  • He taught Valter how to be cruel
  • He told the black knight where to find Ike all those times
  • He's the reason why Beorc and Laguz can't get along
  • He's the reason why Roy was dropped from smash bros. Brawl
  • He was the one who stole the shield of Seals
  • He was the one who give IS the idea of putting waifu's into the game

All that was Takumi's fault. Blame Takumi.

Adding from the Stream(s) I was in at the time

  • It's his fault our Stream was lagging
  • It's his fault the streamer hurt their back
  • It's his fault there were ship wars and spam
  • It's his fault we couldn't touch Camilla's boobs
  • Also his fault that we didn't recruit Flora
  • It's his fault Elise and Sakura (+Mikoto) died
  • Dragon Aids
  • Everyone is dying from dragon AIDS thanks to him
  • It's his fault we can't have nice things
  • Every damn thing was his fault

So, in summary, what we thought was "Incest Emblem" has actually been "Only incest through adoption and marriage so arguably not incest Emblem" this whole time? ... Well actually I should have expected that. That honestly shouldn't surprise me.

[spoiler=]Because different players have achieved different results on different playthroughs of the same route. In one Hoshido route, Camilla died. She lived on Hamayama's stream. Ergo, there must be some triggers or actions (that we are not yet certain of) that cause the different outcomes.

[spoiler=]Really? What happened when she died? I mean, did Marx show up or something? Did a cutscene play? How do we know that she didn't retreat?

What I'm wondering is how, say, a Kamui solo run would turn out? Also how LTC strats would work, especially with their reliance on Jeigans at the beginning.

Would they eat turns to keep Gunter or is the pre-choice Hoshido section enough time to train up Takumi and Suzukaze enough to sacrifice him?

I do wonder where this game's difficulty will rank in comparison to other titles of the series? Will FE:Fates Conquest end up rivalling Thracia in terms of difficulty, or will FE:Fates Birthright be comparably termed in difficulty as Awakening?

[spoiler=Speculations] In my opinion, Fates: Conquest seems to be more difficult than PoR and Stones but seeing that the only streams I've watched either had people bad at Fire Emblem or decided to go Normal/Casual assumably for sake of keeping the stream moving. Meanwhile Fates: Birthright seems to definitely be on par with Awakening Hard simply due to growth rates in Fates and the buff enemy AI got for the Dual system. Otherwise, I simply can't wait to play both because the AI is much more intelligent than it's ever been, and this is fantastic for the series, dating sim aspects or not.

I don't think anything can rival Thracia unless they toss a Xavier esque recruiting scenario combined with the dickishness of Saias' 10 leadership stars of doom plus a shitton of ballistae all in one chapter in a game that has no warp staves.

In terms of default difficulties, mind you.

On the other hand, Leo...

  • Resolves the war between Hoshido and Nohr behind the scenes
  • Fathered Nils and Ninian, thus allowing the dragons to live on and have good relations with humans
  • Provided Marth with the Shield of Seals for the battle against Medeus
  • Delivered Lugh and Chad to the orphanage after rescuing them from Takumi, who was about to throw the twins off of a bridge
  • Consecutively watched over and saved the orphans from the fire
  • Was the forgotten Ninth General of Elibe
  • Was the Renais Soldier who alerted Fado of Grado's plans to invade Renais, allowing Eirika and Ephy to escape
  • Taught Dussel sympathy for others
  • Weakened the Black Knight enough for Ike to defeat him each time
  • Fathered the first of the Branded, teaching us that Humans and Furries can get along
  • Was the decisive vote that got Roy into SSB4
  • Forged the Falchion
  • Wrote the stories of all the best FE games

And that's just a few of his lesser achievements.

Perhaps we should gather all information of how each character in either route dies, so it's easy to prevent it?

So that way we can be perfectionist and keep our favorite character alive first try.

From what I've seen on streams, which honestly has not been much on the Nohr/Conquest side, people do compare the Normal difficulty of Hoshido/Birthright with something between the Normal and Hard Awakening, if only bec of the number of units and the enemy pair ups. It has pretty straight-forward map objectives.

For Nohr, there seems to be a consesus that it is decidedly more difficult than the Hoshido because of the objectives and the fact that, so far, you're grossly outnumbered in the maps. From the people watching the Lunatic livestreams, they say it seems easier than Awakening's Lunatic.

Still hard to tell because most streams have gone the extremes of Lunatic/Classic, sometimes Lunatic/Casual and Normal/Casual.

It would certainly be nice to keep that stuff in one place.

Sounds like a good idea.

As far as I know, no translation or file for Marx's S-Support im sobbing into my hands, i want it

Everything went downhill after Takumi hurt Maurice's back

Ugh, I swear that I saw his S-support a few pages back, but now I can't find it anywhere.

EDIT: Nm, I was thinking of Ryouma.
