That's been the case since Awakening... which was a decade ago, actually. This is the first time the day one DLC has been anything of significance however. 1 hour ago, Saint Rubenio said: If there is one thing that has steadily, objectively (I know people hate that word but in this case I feel it's justified) gotten worse for FE, it's the DLC policies. Every game they one-up themselves. Three Houses' DLC doesn't cost more than the game itself, so I'd say it's still better than Echoes's DLC. 32 minutes ago, Sooks said: Alisa and Jusis or Rufus and Black Alberich? Is Black Alberich a Trails character I don't know about? I honestly can't tell at this point. It feels like the name of a Gundam character for some reason. 17 minutes ago, Armagon said: Twintail Alear where one tail is blue and the other is red.

Venger_06 Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 (edited) Argetina were clearly the better team. Netherlands created absolutely nothing until the first Weghorst goal, and their only attacking plan was pumping long balls towards the end. Argentina should have decided it in extra time even with the chances they had. @Imperator Squilla I told you so, Netherlands suck. 1 hour ago, Punished Dayni said: Adding +20 minutes to a match was a mistake. Correct. We have to think about the players physical condition too. 1 hour ago, ping said: Lions of the North is from September this year. They slowed down considerably (15 DLCs between 2014 and 2018, none in 2019, then 4 since 2020), but it's still really silly at this point. It's honestly made worse by their policy of adding stuff to the base game and then putting some extra buttons into the DLC, since it makes a lot of the DLC incredibly light on content considering the price. It's still my favourite Paradox game by far, and it's genuinely in a pretty good state on the current patch, with an AI that's actually quite competent for once, but the monetisation really is... a thing. Just download CreamAPI and pirate the DLCs, bro. They work with Steam. 1 hour ago, Imperator Squilla said: IS: makes best FE Fans: *HATE* But muh fanservice muh characters muh story muh baby realms 44 minutes ago, Sooks said: Alisa and Jusis or Rufus and Black Alberich?

Considering Argentina just were on the pitch for 140 minutes, yeah. It's partly in response to the timewasting going on though, so there's that to account for too. My concern when it comes to calling performative diving out is for those who could actually be injured when it comes to those wincing in pain, those studs are no joke. 2 minutes ago, Green06 said: The Good Ending is this one here, Armagon.

I've kind of been operating on the assumption that it's like Byleth, name and that's it, but... Then again, why did I assume that when the game's so big on customization otherwise? I mean, even if there's not, the default one still exists. Which is what I meant. Still, I don't dislike the ponytail. It's just not the one I prefer more of the ones that are there.

GuardianSing Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Good man Ike. This wont start a billion Civil Wars, will it? Ike has transcended and finally become a green unit. Dude must've used an antitoxin potion. YEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!! Cough sorry, I was just really excited when this scene played. Oh hey, it's our racist uncle. This is not okay. And that makes Nephenee the last Unit to promote. Oh yeah I forgot she existed. 1 hour ago, Punished Dayni said: On your phrasing, I wonder when such discussions would have first arisen? Could there have been arguments on it with different Homo supspecies? Would people have been debating this between travelling groups as their understanding grew and it became a topic around the fire? I mean for as long as humanity has been around there have been discussions of a higher power, on what the stars mean, who changes the sessions and what not. You could say it hasn't been a debate since the Reformation but looking outside of Europe and Christianity we can see debates on religion being as old as the oldest Civilizations and likely farther beyond that.

I mean, I'd argue it has been a debate past the Reformation too, religious discourse isn't locked to Catholics and Protestants as you said and even there you still have debates going on, though it seems less so among some of the protestant faiths to discuss the theological even there you'll have it.

Acacia Sgt Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 (edited) Wait. Does Holy Crow is just an euphemism or a real thing, when actual raven shapeshifters exist? Maybe she does, since the ravens do have a knack for coin as she does in quite a few situations. I wonder if it's a translation quirk. Ravens use a Kanji that means both Crow and Raven. So perhaps Anna is meant to say Holy Raven but localizers either didn't caught that or deliberately changed it. Likely the latter, since Crow is closer to Cow than Raven is.

The problem here is that, as I said, Crow and Raven are the same word in Japan. So it all comes down to how localization decided to use them. Still, non-Raven Laguz do use Crow, at least when badmouthing them. I'm checking the scripts, so I'll have to see if the ravens themselves do. But again, both are the same word in Japan, so... using crow as an insult/slur could just be a localization invention for all we know.

Acacia Sgt Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 (edited) Looking back, actually, in Ch13 of PoR they use "crow" almost exclusively. Even Ike. So yeah, this is just translation shenanigans. So it gives credence that Holy Crow was just for the sake of wordplay, but it still means they're using an animal which exists in Laguz form.
