Pft. That's like saying ñ has no place if you can just use ny. Which I think that's the case in parts of Spain proper. Like with the Catalan.

Well ñ is a legitimate letter in the Spanish language.

Well far for characters, Silver Snow and Verdant Wind are too similar for that to be considered “far”.

And this is why Silver Snow doesn't actually exist, it's just a myth.

Not redundant. The reason ¡ and ¿ exist is that we don't change the sentence's structure. So one can't know if they're reading a question or a statement unless you have the symbol telling you beforehand. Or look ahead, but why do that when you can have a telling symbol beforehand.

I mean, you're gonna read the whole sentence anyway. Having the punctuation at the end just breaks it up nicer. Also i've seen a lot of Spanish sentences where the punctuation goes before and after the sentence so yeah, i do have to agree that it does feel a bit redundant. 

But i shouldn't be criticizing the Spanish language when English doesn't follow half of it's rules hahaha gottem.

I'd say, if I ever get TH, my planned route roadmap would be CF, VW, AM, SS. As we say, "A mal paso darle prisa".

How much do you know of the plot?

If the answer is not much I wouldn’t recommend CF first...

Enough to not care of the order I do the routes. At least when it comes to "spoilers".

Google Translate says this means: “At a bad pace hurry up”. Hooray!

Oh then yeah that’s fine.

Have fun with no reunion chapter!

Yep, which is why CF is first.

Summoners look like Nergal.

Really? I never got that impression. Mostly because Nergal looks badass, whereas summoners look like a walking bundle of robes with a stupid hat. At least their crit is pretty cool.

Neither can match Lyon though.

Spoiler

WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT WHATTTT?? Is Erika seriously about to give the guy WITH THE DEMON KING POSSESSING HIM the sacred stone??? What??? I know why people hate her now.

I don’t even 100% know that it’s a trick because I’m writing this on the text box “I... trust you, Lyon.” but like holy heck this is totally a trick Eirika what is wrong with you?

So I guess this is also how Ephraim fixes everything huh.

Actually... About that last statement.

Spoiler

Ephraim charges in alone like an idiot like he's been doing all game, except in this case, it doesn't work for him. He steps on a magic trap thingamajig and gets stunned. Lyon proceeds to pick up the stone, smash it and leave.

So... Yeah. A different brand of stupid, but they're both really stupid in this scene.

Naïveté is a key aspect of Eirika's character, from what I understand. Given her sheltered upbringing, it's not surprising that she'd make a decision like that.

Oi...apparently I have to do a video call for a potential remote internship.

I'm so nervous I feel like I can't think straight.

Good luck! I know you can do it!

If it’s any consolation, imo you’re playing on the route with by far the weakest characters and story. Well far for characters, Silver Snow and Verdant Wind are too similar for that to be considered “far”.

Yeah. I did intentionally choose VW because it is the worst route. I wanted to go VW-SS-AM-CF so I could start with the worst and work up from there.

Also, does Nader exist for a reason, or...?

Why are you playing AM anyway? I thought you didn’t like the game.

I SPENT 525$ ON THIS GAME, IMMA FORCE MYSELF TO ENJOY IT

Dorothea and Edelgard

Well, my four liked characters:

  1. Raphael
  2. Dorothea
  3. Ignatz
  4. Hanneman's monocle

I feel like...I dunno, Edelgard has been a really terrible antagonist thus far? She totally got swept under the rug. Less than Dimitri, but still. I am 100% certain that she'll be better in AM, though.

ngl I like this scene a lot. It makes sense for Eirika as a character. The whole point of the scene is that she succumbs to her flaw, but she overcomes it later on in the game.

Meanwhile I've dropped no less than three runs because I just can't be bothered.

It is pretty in-line with her character. People rag hard on her for that moment, but I think she's a fine character. Certainly better than "let me charge into places because the plot says I'm gonna win" Ephraim. I like that one as a unit, but as a character he's kinda bleh.

Incidentally, pretty sure this is a hot take these days, but... I've always found FE8 to be one of the better FE stories. It's not perfect, but the villain selection is so good (Lyon in particular is probably my favorite villain in the series), and the cast is one of my favorites. So... Yeah. There's that. It helps that the game's singular flaw is enemy quality, and the randomizer allows me to easily buff the enemies, so the 30-40 minutes of gameplay in between the plot doesn't drive me to tears, UNLIKE A CERTAIN OTHER GAME.

The more you think like that the less you'll enjoy it.

It's also interesting how Eirika gets ragged on for her naïveté, yet Chrom gets a free pass for readily accepting a Plegian mage as his tactician with almost no questions asked.

Hm...

said plebian mage didn't go on a rampage on the whole continent.

Naivity as a character trait is fine sometimes, but not the Eirika way.

Do it the sigurd way instead

I have discovered a meme in my Berwick Ironman to surpass Dusk Charm Faye:

Dawn Charm Perceval. Even with his base wind skill, he can get 84 hit on Windstorm due to the +17 hit from Dawn Charm and +7 from Enid (3 from Charisma, 4 from support). My Perceval also got Magic his first level, so he can basically deal the same damage as Dire Thunder if all attacks connect. 

Enid failed to hit 4 magic before Chapter 9 ended, currently level 12. That means 10-1 will be the Aegina + Perceval hour. Uh oh.

Oh, and Percy got defense. Somehow.

This is very true. Forcing yourself only gets you more frustrated.

Yeah it does. I just realized why other people harp on her.

That’s the power of Verdant Wind.

I mean there’s a fine line between being naive and being very very stupid, there was a lot at stake here.

Robin?

Even Robin doesn’t know they’re a Plegian.

I have no idea what’s being talked about but you got this!
