I think that particular crossover would be especially well-received on here! Fire Emblem x pokemon! Really I just want a pokemon conquest sequel, but it would be cool to see what pokemon various fire emblem characters had.

Robin doesn't come up in as many of Tharja's supports as Chrom does in Cordelia's. I was actually going to mention that but decided against it. Like I said, though, Tharja's better supports and personality traits are - and likely always will be - overshadowed by her worse ones. Not saying that her stalker tendencies and how she treats her kid should be ignored, but there is more to Tharja than people give her credit for.

Yeah, they're a small but vocal minority. But since they're so loud sometimes the entire fire emblem community gets grouped with them.

HK Motendra Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 30 minutes ago, Arthur97 said: Again though, why like a character if you wouldn't like them as a person? Simple. Because at the end of the day, she's a character, not an actual person. If everyone went by that logic then why like any villain at all then? With that in mind, I sure as hell wouldn't like Michalis as much as I do, considering all he's done, which, even if he does try to repent for what he's done and had reason for doing them, doesn't change the fact that he knowingly did them. Granted, there are some villains that are justified, redeemable or both but at the end of the day, its how they perform their role that counts. Likewise with Tharja, she's a supporting character, who happens to be the only actual bad apple of the group, which makes her more interesting for being different. As I said, she breaks the status quo. 26 minutes ago, saisymbolic said: Not that I have anything against Tharja, I honestly think people would still dislike her if she stalked literally anyone else. Granted, it doesn't help that her object of affection happens to be an Avatar but I think the dislike mostly stems from how she treats her daughter; how she essentially settles with whatever person she ends up with; and her appearance (which, to be honest, really isn't even that bad, in my opinion). The bad thing about Tharja is that a lot of her supports are actually pretty good. Her support with Libra and Nowi are among my favorites, but they get overshadowed by other, more negative aspects of her personality. That'd have been a great point were that only the case. I'm not telling anyone that they shouldn't dislike her; only that a bad person =/= a bad character and that you shouldn't always take characters so personally. Its that very personal level that to my belief is where both character praise and backlash comes from, but then again that can't exactly be helped. I appreciate your response, however Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and I was just suggesting that a Fire Emblem x Kill la Kill, followed by a Fire Emblem x Queen's Blade, crossover would save it even more, in such a manner that would please everyone on this forum to the highest degree!

A small group people just really don't like the new (post-awakening) fire emblem games and feel like they have to let everyone know. Usually their main complaints have to do with the games becoming more about waifus than strategy and consider people that like the new games to not be real fire emblem fans.

Oh great, that first complaint sounds like me..... But the franchise would be dead without Awakening, so it's impossible to say nothing good has come out of the last two (or 4 depending on how you count) games.
