Felix did better in the early game if you don't give him a battalion due to his personal skill doing +5 damage, but mid-game and late game it's better to have battalions equipped, rendering his personal skill entirely useless.
My mistake with Felix in Azure Moon was making him Mortal Savant. He was ok (at best) on the battlefield as a Swordmaster/Assassin until I promoted him again, then everyone else left him behind, so I just adjutant-ed him with Dark Knight Sylvain for the rest of the game. That class is so so bad, I don't get why the only sword-boosting Master Class is so garbage.
Felix is supposed to be a speedy unit, but his Shield Hero's Relic is WAY too heavy for him. It slows him down so much that his high speed, his greatest strength, disappears. The shield could be useful on tankier units though
And both pre- and post- timeskip, Felix is still a big ol' meanie though, through & through
Solution: war master (only requires A in axes and brawling which is not difficult)
Grants +20 crit.
Fast enough to quad with gauntlets, that means 4 chances for crest to activate (5 more damage)
and also 4 chances for crits.
More strength to hold the shield and more speed so it doesn't effect him as much.
Felix OP
I appreciate more diverse legendary items, it's a shame the shield is wasted on the rouge of the game.
yass queen drag that mean bitch through the mud
Bruh, my Felix is kicking ass in my Maddening playthrough as War Master. His relic combined with training and killer gauntlets is OP
1st mistake people make to FE: seeing it as a weeb shit game instead of a strategy and story based game NUFF SAID
what's really funny is that FE is both
I know that feeling bro...I once invited 2 friends over to play smash at my house but after one of them (who has played some fe games before) expressed interest in trying out 3H I decided to let him play through the beginning part of it. What made the experience really awkward though was the other “normie” friend who was constantly telling us how the game felt like an online dating simulator and that I was a weeb (even though I have never watched any anime outside of dragon ball when I was like 11)
Final Fantasy is a weeb game, but nobody seems to mind that. 🤷♂️
@@evalynehicks343 i personally dont think any game is a "weeb game" i just consider them as "japanese games" since there based on their artstyle , and FF had alot of light in popularity in the time that anime and weeb stuff were very little on the west side and more common on japan , so people dont see FF that way but in the other hand with FE it became popular when weeb stuff or anime was becoming a thing in the west
Correction: 1st mistake people make to FE: Hating it because tHey hAvE tOo mAnY chArAcTeRs iN sMaSH bRoS
"Smol forgettable archer bois" YOU TAKE THAT BACK
Short answer: yes.
Long answer: yeeeees
Haha, am I funny internet man yet?
You have achieved the funny.
The funny will be delivered on your door on February 31.
Even longer answer:yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
At least you tried. Keep it up! Heh...
Longest answer: YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessss
5:43 Yeah um...you just got super unlucky then man. Felix is honestly one of the best units in the game. And has one of the best Relics in the game my dude
And best Crest 😳
@@toastbread2263 Gauntlets Crest of Fardarius is fucking broken man
@@kai_824 I believe it, even with the Aegis Shield equipped the man could probably still quad consistently with Gauntlets, his SPD Growth is just that high.
@@NatyaVT his only down side was his res and maybe def but that was fixed a bit with the Aegis shield
Truuuuue
Bruh, Felix has some of the best offensive growths in the game, and the best crest, how do you screw that up twice?
Liezuli luck I guess imagine face palming after getting crit that's like 5% with an accuracy of below 20% that shit can happen (and yes its an example that I've experienced I was like its like below 20% it won't hit then 5% crit won't crit hopefully then unlucky trait kicks in and not only did a 20% below accuracy hit it also crits) same with character growth unless your gonna abuse saves you might not get the stats you want in a level up
Growths are like a roll, you can get a boost in a certain stat or you don't, that's why people usually have varying experiences with units, stuff like class growths may effect this eg: my ashe had one of the best offensive stst spreads in my maddening run and easily was my second best unit behing Dimitri, even though many say he's a bad unit who falls of very quickly. Everyone has different experiences due to rng
Wild Tea Sipper pretty much kinda leaves a Lil salt when you need that one little stat to survive but don't get it cause the RNG screw you over (when I played blazing sword twice I had different Lyn outcome was became good cause she got enough str to be better overall then there's the screw you stats I will live by evading but don't expect me to kill unless its either a crit or they are low on HP lol (basically a low str stats lyn)
unlucky i guees while felix is probably the best student unit after the lords and maybe dedue growths can always fuck you over i had multiple rng screwed dimitris. He only gainend 1 strength and 2 speed over 10 levels even thougj he has the best strentgh growth in the game and a solid speed growth aswell
played maddening, opposing units are fast as f*ck. felix is one of the rare units that can double.
arguments about growth vs base stats aren't viable in a game that gives you every unit at lv1.
also wyvern lord dimitri and byleth op
Im surprised this video isn't blowing up. I love the edits and the comedy is spot on. Along with that, you explain your stances for the pros/cons of the game very well. Basically, this video... Is good
Thanks!! :)
Yeah a lot of my recent videos don't do so well in views because I don't upload very often, since they take a long time to make, since I want them all to at least be pretty good.
But as long as I can at least be entertaining to people who do watch, I'll keep making them
@@CaptainAstronaut Keep up the great work man
7:57 As a person on his 3rd play through who exclusively has not recruited anyone but teachers in order to get the house's experience, I did not know that they could respond like that. Holy shit.
To be fair about Edelgard not remembering Dimitri in her route it is explained in Dimitri's route that she doesn't actually remember their past (likely do to the experiments the slithery people did to her).
Bruh whatdu even mean? Felix is so good. Dragon Claws. Hits 4 times. Like a million% crit chance.
lmao, his Felix got rng-screwed on two playthroughs. xD
Felix is legit one of the best units in the game, his major crest of fraldarius is OP and so is the Aegis Shield tbh.
Felix defeated Edelgard in two turns BY HIMSELF
Yea Felix low key busted
How do you mess up Felix? Even my first Felix who had terrible defense and res worked really well as an assassin and his shield came in a pinch with the Aegis effect. (Note that my first playthrough I sucked and lots of my units were screwed in at least one stat, even Dimitri, who had terrible res)
One thing about the Silver Snow route that is interesting music-wise. Unlike all the other versions of the attack vs. map themes, which feature, as you describe in the video, someone banging on pots and pans, A Funeral for Flowers, for it’s zoomed in battle version uses . . . a piano solo. Which is super amazing and effective, I wish they had done more of that. Like, that chapter has had you come back to the monastery in triumph, only to have a tragic twist happen for the final battle. Playing a sad piano version of this sad sounding theme is just really really good and works super well.
21:43 funnily enough the english translation is the only one where Byleth and Edelgards marriage isn't explicitly mentioned in their ending. At least i know it is mentioned in Japanese, German and Spanish.
*cries in Felix being my fav character*
I've used him in all 6 playthroughs
1:51 "FE Heroes-Play it every day even though I do not like it"
I play Heroes and I couldn't agree more
Joshua Taylor what’s your pfp from?
@@portalguy2246 OneShot! It's a really cool indie game, super well done. Highly recommend playing it.
Joshua Taylor I’ve been looking for that game for a few months now
@@portalguy2246 It's on Steam! Due to the nature of the game itself it's not suited to cross-platform play. Let me know what your think of it!
Ah, FEH.
The game that no one would play if we couldn't collect JPEGs of our favorite characters...
And see and use antagonists in a different way.
I think blue lions is the "intended" first playthrough. I feel like Golden deer goes more into depth on topics introduced in the other playthroughs so it feels like it's meant to be the last, especially since Blue Lions has more cutscenes for the reveals.
Also Edelgard doesn't remember Dimitri, Dimitri reminds her in his route but has no reason to in the others.
@@nickelakon5369 unless you count him calling her "El" in CF as a reminder (for it is the fact that she regrets his death afterwards and even becomes sentimental, against - the fact that you can get the Dedue scene instead and still see her regretting)
I think the best way to play the game story wise is by this:
Blue Lion route
Black Eagels: Rhea route
Black Eagels: Edelgard
Golden deer Route
That was my order of playthroughs and BL feels like it was meant to be the 1st, I'm glad it was mine. Azure Moon cutscenes and reveal was epic and is still my favorite. Crimson Flower was fun and then the Verdant wind gave me the answers. The best part about Sillver Snow was Seteth's reaction to transformed Rhea.
FE three houses isn’t good, ITS GREAT!!!
No
ITS AMAZING!
B-u-b-o-n-i-c
Oh man, I stan Felix. See, he’s basically decided that pushing people away will make it so that he doesn’t have to keep losing them. And when he warms up to you, he’s the kind of friend who will tell you straight up “no, stop doing that. It’s bad.”
He was the only character who didn’t just mourn Dimitri when he was discovered to be dead, but wondered if there was anything he could have done to have stopped his death from happening. And in my playthroughs, he’s always been one of my best units - mobile and quick, usually able to one shot anything AND not get hit by attacks either.
I personally like Azure Moon as the first route (Which is what I did not knowing, it’s my first Fire Emblem game), because the big Holy Tomb reveal comes with a GREAT cinematic, probably the best version of that reveal. Also, both Dimitri and Edelgard are VERY intense lords for different reasons, so the still serious but more breezy Claude I feel makes a good break between Azure Moon and Crimson Flower. And yeah, while I wish Crimson Flower were longer, it definitely works best as not your first route. I feel like the game wants you to discover it, since it is Edelgard, and the other route is like “well, we don’t HAVE a lord for you now”, but it’s still the odder route.
you've pretty much encapsulated why i love felix. good comment.
Hold up, Felix is easily an S tier unit. The man is so good, he's one of the only units that can use mortal savant, one of the worst classes in the entire game.
My Felix was A GREAT mortal savant he ended edelgard by himself
My Ignatz was also a great Mortal Savant. I mean, he has access to Fimbulvetr or whatever its called.
Lol wut felix is like one of the best characters in the game his crest is the best by far and his growths are sick
I've only heard of Fire Emblem from Smash tbh. And after seeing some gameplay and your review I might pick up 3 Houses (also haven't been doing great in Splatoon so I need other games to fill the void)
Terence Lightning do it you won’t regret it
@@kayy4511 If I do pick it up it will probably be only one time through.
@@MxTheLight If you're only going to play it once, then you should go either Blue Lions or Golden Deer.
@@TrueLadyEvilChan Thanks for the tip!
@@TrueLadyEvilChan what is bit of a shame because Black Eagles is easily the most popular route...
Felix is a great character and one of the best units in the game so uhhh
Smash players be like: "fIrE eMblEm iS aCTuaLlY gOoD? SiNce wHEn?!"
since the first game
UUUUM ASH IS NOT FORGETABLE! He’s like, the best character in blue houses besides dimitri himself.
Great video tho
I really like the way you went about making and presenting your thoughts in this video. It was really cohesive and as someone who's played almost every route (I'm a little less than halfway through deer because procrastination) I agree with almost everything you said.
I definitely think that azure moon was the first to be made and designed though. Just look at how many extra cgs and cutscenes that route has compared to the others. Dimitri's character arc feels so well done and fleshed out especially with having Felix, Ingrid, and Sylvain around. Not to mention every unit except Ashe and Dedue have crests and get relics in that route. I would be shocked if azure moon wasn't the first route made.
Also Felix is really cool and while he's really standoffish almost all the time I really like how he was handled and he's not just another edgelord mcedgington imo. His support with Seteth is really good for helping to show his motivations and feelings.
they probably don't make more characters join you after the time skip because its a story meant to be lived with your students, which is why no map lets you deploy more than 12 units which is considerably less than in previous games
if to only mtint to be with stundts then way can reocnt othe 2 prosfers and aluis and way do you gilabt on your taem in bleu lines he no sutndt so again thay kind debank you right there
Ok might actually play it? Thanks for the spoiler skips
Love this review direction you’re going
Thanks SquidMin!! :)
war master felix honestly one of the best melee units in the game
Of course. Felix always was one of my best units. As a Wyvern Lord, As a Mortal Savant, as a Assassin, Sword Master and now as War Master. He always kicks ass. But well... he also can get RNG screwed. No unit is safe
My felix is a sniper. Highly recommend it.
@@elgatto3133 Felix is good in nearly every class, it seems. My Felix is just broken right now. He uses Gauntlets, everything he attacks is a quadruple hit and even with just Training Gauntlets he has a Crit Chance of 41% on the average enemy. It's just insane. This game is too easy, i tell you. It's too easy to get op units. My Lysithea aswell, she is a walking nuke and Annette is becoming a monster aswell... even my Ashe as a Bow Knight... there is nothing he can't hit right now. His Accuracy is through the roof thanks to Mariannes personal Battalion which grants 40! Hit if maxed out.
@@Ultimabuster92 well I'm playing maddening which isn't so easy although it's not terrible
@@elgatto3133 NG or NG+? Because Maddening in NG+ is only hard in the early maps. Later on it gets too easy aswell. I have yet to play Maddening without NG+ but after this playthrough i will definetly tackle it
I've never played a Fire Emblem game in my life, and I'm considering making this one my first. Would this be a good starting point, or should I go for Awakening or Fates?
EDIT: Never mind he answered this at the end of the video........
i know you said he already answered but three houses was also my first fire emblem game and i really recommend it!!
Also I'd recommend not listening to his route recommendation. Instead, watch Lucky Crits video about "Which house to choose in Fire Emblem Three Houses" so you can decide for your own.
Play Path of Radiance for the gamecube as your first
As your first FE, i would recommend Awakening and Three Houses. Both are great games to start with. But if you want to catch up with the hype. Three Houses is for you
@@yoran4067 or "Fire Emblem" on the GBA (sometimes referred to as FE 7 or Fire Emblem: The Blazing Sword.)
3years later, it's still the best fire emblem I've played, and yes, because of the plot.
"felix is bad"
also felix: only unit doubling in maddening
That’s a funny way to say Petra or Ingrid
Its almost as if it won a game reward lol
Is game good? Yes
Does it have flaws? Oh god yes
Does the good outweigh the negative? Absolutely it does.
Great video man, keep up the good work!
On a side note, I definitely recommend trying out FE4 again. I just beat it a few weeks ago, and it is easily top 3 for me. Story is engaging and epic in scale, and a lot of the gameplay mechanics (major/minor holy blood, holy weapons, etc.) seem to have directly inspired elements seen in Three Houses.
U recommended me to buy this game and now I actually need to use my brain cells
Really enjoyable tbh
Yea. Now you don’t have to watch the video!
*_forgettable_** smol archer boys*
I AM HURT
I AM OFFENDED
AND I AM, INDEED, CRESTFALLEN
That being said, good video my guy.
IDK man I played Golden Deer first going in completely blind on the game and not knowing much about anything it kinda feels like now we're fighting Edelgard, makes sense
then we're suddenly already fully focused on TWSITD and there would have also been a fine point to end it, but then we also kinda just fight The old guy had someone not literally mentioned in a cutscene that this is the final battle I wouldn't have known.
I made the regrettable mistake of playing Silver Snow right after not knowing it was essentially Verdant Wind without Claude
that felix section..... dont say that about baby
Difference between Mercedes and Marianne? One is actually timid and shy/depressed. Another is a queen of hot roasts and will destroy your dignity and self respect in a soft, motherly tone.
i know you said this game not needing a happy ending... but i need one! this game is so hearthbreaking. they really deserve it
You do in fact have an op leader in Silver Snow. Also you get 2 more op units depending on whether you recruited Cyril or not before hand.
23 minute captain astronaut video?
hell yea bruther
2:40 because something just gets me about Captain Astronaut saying *"and weebs"* really close to the mic like that.
I mean it won players choice at game awards. People shouldn't be surprised
Short answer: Yes
Long answer: Yes, very
Felix is actually my strongest unit for me and my friends. 😂😂 he has sooo many unnecessary crits. 💯
And yes I married him...
You know you’re here because of smash.
Super late comment, but thanks to you, I took the plunge and got this game. I've never played a FE game before, but I'm loving it so far! Golden Deer House!
My first playthrough was in the Red Eagles route, but I cut that short once I saw the post time skip Dimitri. Restarted, jumped into the Blue Lions route without a second thought.
I abandoned a route because of a war torn Dimitri, and I’ll do the same if something like that happens again in other FE games.
can someone tell which songs plays at 9:32 ?
I want to know it too :(
@@zabel9050 I actually found it,the song's name is Desire Below (flow) from Fire Emblem fates
On the tragedy thing: they mostly do well, but probably could have accounted for a few more variables. Like… what if you don’t recruit Dorothea; who then of the Eagles will mourn Ferdinand if you did get them? They do a lot with the battle dialogues, but the Monastery convos could have had more stuff; everyone should always have something to say about a former Housemate that died. And I do mean *everyone* and accept no substitutes…
A lot of this game’s ambition feels like it needed more time to cook; they committed to making this come after Fates and SOV, but with its scale a more standard but well-made game should have been the bridge between them… Which BTW, is *exactly* what they did when “Sacred Stones” was moved to release before the Tellius duology; POR was intended as FE8 and SS was FE9, as far as working titles, but they were being worked on at the same time.
19:36 *YES!* *DEFINITELY!*
Dimitri 😳 😳 😳
I should probably play this game...
I am Ferdinand Von Aegir!
5:43 PITFALL! Felix is legit top 5 in the game
Only here for LTspaceman and his videos...why? Doesn't matter what content it is I will still watching cause its funny and entertaining.
I originally found this chanel for the squid game but now I like it as something more.
Gronder field part 2 was a mess and you cant convince me otherwise. The whole idea the first time around was that you could possibly sit back and let the other two armies wack on each other, making it easier for your army to win. This time one army literally just sits back and does nothing while the other charges you like you are the scum of the earth. I would also like to point out that Dimitri in verdant wind says rather clearly he is just there to kill Ederguard and anyone that gets in his way (and then charges you anyways), and Claude in Azure moon says to hold back and see what happens (and then charges you anyways). The Claude one pissed me off the most just because he is supposed to be a tactical genius and the only reason he is there is because you asked for his aid against Ederguard and put your butts on the line to draw troops off his border. Then he has the fking gall to ask for help after that fiasco. Should have had the option to leave him to rot, especially because he just fucks off after saving his sorry hide.
Sorry, I forgot to add the one army sitting back actually has a trap set in the middle of the battlefield, but only activates it if your units enter the middle, not the other army. It is like they wanted to make this level harder this time around while forgetting that one of these armies is legit the big bad, and the other is 50% of the time only there because you called for them to aid you against said big bad.
The one time I could actually see this battle occurring like this is if you had this fight in Crimson flower, a route that actually doesn't go to gronder field.
So the recruiting characters bit is actually kinda interesting to me. When I played through the game for the first time I did not recruit anyone but the other professors and Alois this was in BE. I had to use every unit I received even if they were bad **COUGH COUGH CASPAR** anyways when I had to take over the capital and had to kill some of the students I got like super sad but when Lysithea actually joined me she became my favorite character. I had a fantastic mage that one shot every unit and had really good supports even tho I only used her in timeskip. If I recruited her in pre time skip I really do not think I would have experienced that moment where I was so happy that a student decided to join me. When playing through other paths I actually recruited all the students but I kinda regret that now since each chapter doesnt have as much life to it if those students were on the enemies side. Once I replay the game I think I will only recruit like Lysithea and I guess the Ashen Wolves since I cant kill my favorite character and the Ashen Wolves seem to not be in the story if you dont get them.
I have heard that Silver Snow was apparently the original route, and then they realized they should have a diverging plot. Which is probably why Golden Deer is basically the same with a slightly different dialogue path and different end boss.
Which is probably why it feels the most complete.
I played Silver Snow first, and had a good time.
This is my first fire emblem game and I loved it. Still have crimson flower and silver snow routes to do. But it’s great. I agree that I am a little mad that there’s no post game stuff
You know you’re a fire emblem fan when one of the best characters in the game gets screwed over almost every run. I still have flash backs to my Sigurd that never grew speed in 25 levels.
Dude, Felix is a Physical Glass Cannon, if you know how to use him, he can level an army
Get him healing focus too to further improve survivability
You have me giggling like a baby at 11:00 after work. I can't wait for more content!
Felix's shield hero's relic is great. Give it to a protection stacking Lance Dedue and it not only helps him reach the point where he's immune to physical attacks thanks to its 6 protection, but it reduces his HP after combat, thus giving a safe way to boost his Vengeance damage to ridiculous levels after baiting a few attacks.
what shield heroe relic I have fleix on my team down all roats the I no flrice msison tog et heor leic for him so what you talking about
I know this is many years late, but as someone who has over 600 hours in this game, I’d like to give my thoughts on the route order and how it should played. The order for a new player should be as follows:
Azure Moon
Verdant Wind
Crimson Flower
Silver Snow
Azure Moon has the biggest immediate impact between both story and characters, and is the best starting point to get you interested in the game.
Verdant Wind is primarily focused on lore and worldbuilding, answering questions posed in AM. If you play VW first, you’ll likely end up getting fed a lot of information that won’t make sense till you play the other routes and find out why that lore is significant to the current story.
Crimson Flower is basically the other side of Azure Moon. The reason it should come third is because while it’s great, it’s very clearly rushed, so it’s easier to enjoy it once you have context from the other two main routes to fill in the blanks.
Silver Snow should be last, and that’s mainly because it’s a retread of VW, but without Claude to help tie threads together. It’s the weakest of the routes, the Black Eagle students are noticeably out of place, and Seteth the weakest route lord. There’s nothing to gain from SS that you don’t get from the other routes, aside from some more context at the very end as to why Seteth and Flayn can’t assume dragon form, and you get to S support Rhea. If it’s the first or second route you play, you’ll end up incredibly bored and probably ditch the game before you finish the route, so it should be played after the other three, and should only be played if you specifically want to learn a bit more about Rhea, Seteth, and Flayn in particular.
TBH girls still can punch (and I don't mean Byleth's Exalted One) - sure, no give bonus weapon experience to fists, but let me tell you, fists on armored knights are super strong.
i'd say it's "ok", not terrible but not amazing either
if you play 3H on a superficial level, chances are it'll become one of your favorite games ever, but just as you start scratching that surface, you'll be able to see how many flaws lie beneath
surely a huge step up from Fates, but honestly getting worse than that was an almost impossible task
Black Eagle paths feel like after thoughts. Especially since Golden Deer overlaps so much with the Silver snow path, and Crimson Flower just feels unfinished.
If you ask me they should have dropped Silver Snow, then put the Emasculate One fight as the final fight in that path.
Then you take the Shambala and Nemesis fights into Crimson Flower. Edelgards main motivation in White Clouds is that she wants to punish those who tortured her and her family. And yet, we don't get to do that? It wasn't the Church who did it, they are a secondary objective really.
It all really feels like they ran out of budget... but Edelgard is one of the three houses leaders, she shouldn't be an afterthought or villain in all paths... (Also the only female leader, so I assume a lot of people will "stumble into it." Only reason I didn't stumble into it was because I spoiled myself when I realized I could end up losing Flayn who I had made my dancer... so I chose a gameplay meachanic over my path)
Well grondor field makes Sense because it is a war and Dimmitri ans Claude can't just run to each other and Talk mid battle. Edelgard also says she makes the battle so chaotic that the people don't know who they can trust or not. Die example if Anette sees Leonie Midbattle with all their armies the soldiers arround her don't know Leonie and Anette don't knows if Leonie might shot her it's just logical to assume that they attack each other without a real reasons. The reason is they are on the Battlefield and not fighting for the same lord
Lumping Ferdinand in with Sylvain and Lorenz..... how dare you......... Ferdinand was never a creep to women. How dare you
CF was my first route too, and yeah, I wish I'd played other routes first,,, It was very jarring, and a LOT of things brought up in the first half are either never mentioned again, period, or are vaguely mentioned and THEN never brought up again. It really did feel like tons of exposition was just..... Missing
I love the Black Eagles kids dearly (except Caspar), though, and in terms of ideology/goals, I feel like there's a lot of non-BE characters that make perfect sense joining your group in CF, like Sylvain and Lysithea). Honestly, those two Not joining Edelgard is gonna be super weird in my GD and BL playthroughs,,
I'm starting my GD run rn and am looking forward to having Answers and better story progression lol
You're very wrong
Felix is incredible as a unit and he has an incredible relic to boot
Also his personality is great, in literally every support he's the reincarnation of that meme where the woman yells at the cat with him being the cat
I couldn't finish this one because I couldn't stomach killing the students. I learned later that it's possible to recruit them so I might go back and play it.
In all fairness to Felix, he’s nutty good as a brawler considering his crest, proficiency, strength and speed. His shield also tacks some free extra survivability on top of his avoid and servicable defense
On the one hand, I want the artistic integrity of the game to stay intact by not having a perfect route. On the other hand, playing the game on maddening+ or something to get a pacifist route would make me really happy and I think cringey hope is also art.
8:30 Basically Rain>Thunder
I'm so glad I decided to click on this video. This is awesome. YOU'RE awesome. THIS GAME is awesome.
Hmmm this makes me want to play it... damn
I really wish they would fix Crimson Flower. It's obvious that the route was rushed out the door and not baked all the way and now it's being criticized all the time even though it had the most potential for the best story.
SPOILERS:
It's probably because it was an afterthought.
Edelgard is an enemy in 3/4 routes, she's the "red character" (the color that has always symbolized the enemy units in FE) with a pretty demonic/satanic design and she's working with the really really bad guys, who have also kinda indoctrinated her world view with lies.
I honestly believe that Edelgard was planned to be a tragic "villain" (she isn't really a villain tho, since she's not evil) only and not a protagonist. That's why her path is that short and rushed.
@@stormnightmare4378 i know. It was rushed out the door because they couldn't delay it again
@@stormnightmare4378 and it was more truthful than what Rhea and Dimitri brought in. Claude is the one who manages to bring in all the truth though.
@@stormnightmare4378 Considering she killed those guys afterwards, which also wasn't shown because rushed
@@yuuhyakuya3863 "and it was more truthful than what Rhea and Dimitri brought" I both agree and disagree with that :)
Azure Moon doesn't answer any of the important questions, that's completly true. But Edie believes in lies that TWSITD fed her. She thinks that Nemesis was a hero, which he really wasn't (since he slaughtered everyone of Rheas race and made weapons out of their bones). TWSITD are also at fault for the crest system, 'cause they used the blood of the children of the godess to experiment and gave humans access to crests. If someone only plays CF, they will think what Edelgard is saying is true - but it isn't.
Rhea is as tragic as Edie is (I personally sympathize with her alot more than with Edelgard tbh), but that's probably something that is different for everybody.
Claude is really the only one that manages to unveil the truth :D
My second Fire Emblem game (my first being Fates Conqu-🤢🤮) and I love it.
Hey ! Conquest is a good game !
Just skip the story and you're good to go
@@zant2146 45$ to skip the game's story
no, no it isn't good
@@MicksUp Yes it is. The gameplay is great, the map design is overall pretty good, the difficulty is challenging in Hard and provides a REAL challenge on Lunatic, the characters are average (some really good but brought down by the shitty ones). This easily compensate for a story that just collapses into itself with every new line of dialogue.
@@zant2146 i mean ok but when i pay 45$ for a game i expect every part of it to be worth that money
i don't want a 45€ game with ok-ish gameplay that makes up for a garbage story
your logic clearly has some flaws, but hey, if you like to spend money for half-decent games, more powet to you
@@MicksUp I mean that's your opinion, but the gameplay certainly isn't "ok-ish". There is a lot of great things about Conquest which are able to make it a good game despite of a lacking story.
"waiting for eventual [FE4 remake]"
Uh, bro? You *are* aware that Three Houses is literally the closest IS is ever going to get to remaking Bad Guy Bones His Brainwashed Half-Sister And Barbecues Her Husband So He Can Sire The Reincarnation Of An Evil God, *especially* for Western Nintendo Fan Audiences right?
(Also *technically* Edelgard isn't a fascist. She wants to dismantle a hierarchical order rather than establish one, which makes her more of a Bonapartist. Which . . . actually isn't that much better, to be honest.)
Look, if Bayonetta and Sans could make it to Smash, anything can happen. Three Houses effectively serves as a sandbox for them to test the game anyways so don't sleep on the possibility.
@@mikhailthegreatestdragon3627 The fact remains that Genealogy of the Holy War could not be remade and localized to North America with anything less than an M rating without severely butchering the story. So, effectively, that is what IS did: they took some of Genealogy's core concepts, themes, and tones, and made an entirely new game out of them that would easily pass for a T rating.

I think you're underestimating how far Nintendo could go. Between this and the fact that they allowed you to Sweet Home Alabama your cousin, there aren't many boundaries those loons can't push, especially if there's a lot of fan interest.
TWSITD should have won in the crimson flower path. The moment Edelgard bonked Rhea on the dome they should have nuked Fhirdiad.
Tfw Felix is my fav character lmao 😭
Wait wait wait
Did you just say Felix was bad as a UNIT?
I really loved the humor in this video! Although I might not agree with all of the points you've made, winning an award should be an indication of a decent game. I also liked how you dropped your Fire Emblem History, personally, I haven't played all of the games, but I am planning on at least giving all of them a try. My history is below🙃
FE 1: Never played it
FE 2: Never played it
FE 3: Never played it
FE 4: Played it a little bit, never beaten it (definitely waiting for a remake)
FE 5: Never played it
FE 6: Playing it for the first time right now
FE 7:
Played it a little bit, never beaten it
FE 8: Beaten it way too many times
FE 9:
Played it a little bit, never beaten it
FE 10: Never played it
FE 11: Beat it multiple times
FE 12: Beaten it way too many times
FE 13: Beat it multiple times
FE 14: Conquest/Birthright beaten way too many times, Revelations only beat it a couple of times
FE 15: Beat it only once (the replayability on this one sucked imo)
FE 16: Haven't played Three Houses yet, still torn between buying now or waiting for a price drop (I'm in no rush + I don't care at all about the story in my Fire Emblem 🤷♂️)
FE Heroes: I don't like gacha games, enough said.
Nonetheless, a great video man!
Felix a bad unit!? He is a one man army killer from start to finish! He is the lysithia of swords! You just put I'm in a bush and watch the enemy army fall like dominos
Grass is green
The sky’s blue
Water’s wet
And fire emblem still has good music
I’m quoting this
This video is making me want to start my 5th save file for the game.
The only reason azure moon is hardest is A you don’t have Dedue for some of it if you don’t complete certain things B Cornelia IS SO HARD
you can get to her in like 2 turns if you use warp + stride + fliers
lmao the felix hate bc of his poor growths in your runs reminded me of how i struggled in shadows of valentia bc my pegasus sisters all had such awful growths that est was the strongest of the three
I was on the John when I got notified for this video, does that make me a shitty viewer?
1:52
I wish I stuck with conquest only during the fates era 😳
Amazing video. I don’t agree with ALL of your opinions (Echoes’ story is godlike) but really great humor and editing. Subbed
Fates is a great game
Wait your chart said you beat revelation twice. I barely survived once. Are you a masochist or something
I've only played the gamecube game and i loved it gonna get this game for sure
9:33 What song is this and from what game is it from? Fates? Awakening? This was my first fire emblem game so I don’t know.
It's called "Sea of Aspiration" from fates. Took awhile to find it but I gotchu
SSJ Kaiser thanks so much
I love how Lorenz's C support w/ Byleth is just you telling him to stop harassing women
Huh! Being someone who played the GBA FE games for the first time at the beginning of 2018, I honestly liked The Binding Blade and the Sacred Stones more than I did Blazing Blade TBH.
21:49 The ending es exactly the same for male Byleth and Edelgard
Depends on whether or not you picked Golden Deer. I love those misfits.
