No, you don't burn a witch. First, you tie them by the neck to a tree branch, a tree branch hanging over a river. Then you light the branch on fire, the fire spreads down the rope and simultaneously destroys the branch, atop which a large boulder has been placed. Thus, the witch is suffocated, incinerated, crushed and drowned (not that witch should, but they somehow do) all at once. You don't have to worry about picking the right form of execution this way!

save the witch, burn the princess

But what if it's a Witch Princess?

It's his second biggest problem with the game

  Reveal hidden contents

There are some valid critiques here. "Why didn't bossman send his entire squad to clown on the heroes" is not one of them, that's like 99% of villains ever.

The other problem

Don't let him play Xenoblade X, he will violently combust.

Wild part is the explanations are there, they just aren't explicitly stated. Not that there aren't things that aren't explained but honestly, I feel like some people just lacked media literacy when playing 3.

More like the game was afraid to be too connected to XBC1/2. It's more a standalone game to it's own detriment.

Eh, tbf, Takahashi said up front you could play this as your first game no problem. The connections are still more thematic. 

I think the problem is some people set themselves up expecting Xenoblade Avengers and criticize the game for what it isn't (not saying you do this, I just mean generally). This isn't a fault of the game.

That will be the Xenoblade F2P Gacha coming to mobiles in 2025.

save her with fire

Sooooo have her get arrested despite her high status, placed on the bonfire, and then cue the miracle that saves her life and leaves the crowd of onlookers either fleeing in fear or dead. At  which point she emerges from the flames charred, but alive. She then realizes there is no going back to her old life, and instead accepts her new existence as a witch? The witch is saved, the princess is no more.

I did once make a list of failed opportunities where Nergal could've succeeded in FE7. I forget, but I think it was like seven missed chances total?

Arrogance, even by the supposedly emotionless and calculating, is a villain trait par excellence.

Be sure to include at least one male witch. And, he shall have a familiar, his very first diabolic minion, that he summoned from the netherworld when he was approximately 11 or 12. I leave you to decide the circumstances of their first encounter, but their relationship needs to be a happy one. Furthermore, both of these males shall now be 18+ in age at the start of Witch FE's story, and in a physically intimate relationship. This is shall be a wholesome homo twist on the claims that witches fornicated with the Devil.

Oddly specific

One day I will bring forth my "inspired by the Latin American independence movements... but mostly Mexico's because it's the one I know best" FE-esque idea into a reality...

That way you can also keep the serie's tradition of having villains with Spanish names!

He did play it, and he thinks X is the best Xeno game by far.

Pft, though the protagonists would also have Spanish names too.

Well, it's mostly with the bandits, but yeah.

Of course, if I stick with how the actual war here played out, you'd be in the "villain" role before defecting. Yeah, Agustin de Iturbide as the Lord, imagine.

Yeah I don't actually blame anyone for thinking it, I'm talking more about how they let their theories go in too deep.

How's this man doing today?

And again, tbf, Takahashi did say you could jump into this. Imagine if Marvel said "yeah you can jump into Avengers Endgame no problem". 

Like I keep saying (hell like Takahashi also said), the conclusion is more thematic and subtle.

Villains literally never think they'll lose, even at their most incompetent.

Sometimes they never lose *cough* Trails Ouroborus *cough*.

But....but X (explicitly) explains shit even less than 3???

LIke both games give you the context clues don't get me wrong but there's a reason why we desperately want that X2. If the next Xenoblade game isn't that, imma have a nice chat with Takahashi.

Neither do I. Staves just refuse to have their range changed. They just stop working.

For FE1, my beloved Proyecto Elitista 1 is in English, but I believe there is a better one for this language. Still, do grab the manual from PE. Ignore the thread title, I can confirm the manual at least is complete.

For FE2, PE2 is unfortunately not in English. I've no idea here, sorry.

For FE5, Lil' Manster and it's not even a contest.

For FE6, Gringe's patch is the best and most recent one.

For FE12, there's only ever been one. An attempt was made for a new one, but they never updated it and the only version has issues.

The best FE3 translation is in this thread embed here on Serenes.

I think it's even been updated since I last played FE3 myself, actually.

Contrary to what you may think, I did not miss FE3 on purpose. I just forgot. Whoops.

Phew! That's all done. I'm putting a lot of trust into this computer in hopes that it'll last longer than my other two.

The funniest part was searching the forums for ages looking for that one conversation we had about Genealogy of the Holy War we had months ago.

This was honestly a life savior though, thank you. I still have to get Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn but I'll save dealing with Dolphin for tomorrow.

That and the game doesn't let you make Byleth or staff your dancer, not even as a NG+ unlock.

The newest I could think of for Gaiden was the Artemis patch, but looking further there's also this one that is still pre SoV. I swore there was some Gaiden work being done relating to Project Elitist, but I can't see it.

There's also a patch for BSFE here.

There is a Project Elitist 2 that covers gaiden, yes, but it is only in Spanish. It can be found in fireemblemwod.

Boring day at work today. I don't like that. Bit busy means it goes by faster so I can go back home and make a working bloom festal for my hack of pending name.

Ah well. Only 45 more minutes. If I still can't get staff ranges fixed with this third patch, I'll have to give up on the bloom festal and come up with a different idea to replace the now useless torch staff.

I suppose what bothers me more is that Bennette rejected Roleck's proposal and instead of accepting that, he kept heckling her.

I'm going to assume this was because he was perfectly aware that Bennette wanted to accept and was only refusing for his sake. But this part is probably something that shouldn't have been left ambiguous.
