3:23 The FEH Fandom's worse nightmare. Especially when they realize this can technichally count as an "new" Fallen Hero since this Edelgard and 3 Houses Edelgard are different enough.
It's one of the best parts of there bond Shaz is blunt and will not take any of Dimitri bullshit I also love how eventually all the Blue lions become the surport system Dimitri needs to keep himself sane
@@germandragon8664 yeah, but it was also a great story with many other messages and commentaries, such as on religion, zealotry, genocide, sins of the father, politics, ptsd, gender roles, sexuality, classism, eugenics, needs of the many, and much more. This game continues those themes, adds to them, and brings some of its own too
I know everyone's like "A gOlDeN rOuTe RuInS tHe PoInT" but I was (and am) really hoping that there's a golden route for everyone since TWSITD was still an enemy not explored and pretty easy to rally everyone against. Why can't the point just be stopping a dude w space missiles
Finally ! Dimitri confronts Thales while having the proof that he's responsible for his father's death. Surprise that Edelgard actually helps Dimitri, though.
I think Edelgard always wanted Dimitri’s help, but the combination of everything that happened to his Kingdom, her reluctantly having to rely on TWSITD, Thales having the ability to control her whenever he sees fit and likely keeping tabs on her, I’d be hard to. Here was the perfect opportunity for her to be able to finally tell him
@@iamgogolly well here’s thing Byleth maybe the key to true route because the end azure moon Byleth is able change Eldegard who knows maybe it’ll be explained. But also this forces players to complete every route to unlock the true route.
The absolute RAW testosterone when Dimitri says "Till then nobody lays a hand on you" And leaps for Thales's soul turned me into a man and my dog into a wolf
What should have been greatest high point(because I love me some Hegemon Edelgard), only for it be to followed by Edelgard getting robbed of all agency.
I liked that it showed Edelgard being robbed of his agency because it shows the risk of working with the Slithers. Something official showing this instead of fanbase what ifs is better
Their canon class progression is Myrmidon > Fluegal > Swordmaster > Asura. Though putting Shez through a variety of classes is worth doing to acquire useful skills. Especially since levelling classes is really quick and easy in this game.
Well, the Crest of the Beast is the only one that turned the user into a monster, could be that the Agarthans took those properties when doing their experiments. Also, according to the wiki, the Crest Stone embedded in Amyr is either the one from Gautier or the one from the Beast, so it could be an artificial one based on either one of the originals, as we know the original ones are in the Lance of Ruin and Blutgang. Seeing how Amyr is not in the game, it could be that they are using that artificial Crest Stone here.
@@just_a_cabbage7756 Aymr is obtainable in secret chapter during SB when you S complete the fight... I discovered it by accident haha. Its not Edelgards canon weapon outside AG part II because its Agarthan made and she isnt working with them in this timeline. Theres no logical way to implement it in game other than something like "Thales kept it in Enbarr" or "We are raiding shambhala" so I they just threw it as a special gift during an Agarthan related chapter (For other routes when you S complete you get ichor scroll (AG/CoLamine tome) and bultgang (GW))
@@just_a_cabbage7756 I wanna add on something more related to the comment. Thales uses crest of beast go transform her. And in 3 houses, yes, Aymr has the same stone. When you fight Hegemon Edelgard and she de transforms theres no Aymr besides her, suggesting she removed the stone from the axe and held onto it to transform or straight up ate it or something
It said in 3 Houses that Slither was making weapons and synthetic crest stones. This implies that Aymr is not the legit Hero’s Relic, but a copy, hence, why it can sync with Edelgard’s different crests
@@Cometstarlight The Crest Stone is likely real, but the weapon itself is a replica. Remember, the ONLY ones that have artificial Crest Stones are just Demonic Beasts they use.
In this time, so Edel cannot spill the beans to Dimitri. Edel learned much in her side of the game, and was close to telling Dimitri more...until Thales.
I believe in this route, there is a good ending. Watching a video of the ending to this route (Azure Gleam? I can’t remember all the titles), it seems like Thales is defeated, Edelgard survives, and Claude and Rhea seemed to be on Dimitri’s side instead of Rhea being AFK the whole route and Claude fucking off to Almyra.
@@theonewhowrotethis5681 True, but I would say she would most likely be able to recover similar to how she was able to have her artificial Crest of Flames removed by Hanneman and Lindhardt.
Bruh the entire point of the Three Houses/Hopes is to tell a top tier story of realistic war in a fantasy setting. There's no such thing as a "golden route" or "good ending" here, nor should there be. War is war, and there is no version of events that will make it all okay
I know everyone's here for Hedgegard, but are we gonna talk about the fact that Shez is the only one in this cutscene who talks like a normal human being?
Idk if Catherine is unlocked via chapter. Guessing from the other comment she is unlocked on a specific route or quest or maybe you need to purchase her from the character shop ( idk how to u unlock it maybe new game + idk if new game + is a thing yet)
@@FazFaz Ahhh ty for the info!! Also in terms of Byleth, u can only recruit them in ur 2nd play through but not the first one? Or is it possible to get them during first play through
no clue tbh, SPOILERS I was forced to kill byleth but there was dialogue after where Shez was unsure if she did the right thing. I will upload a video of that soon
This route did Eldelgard so dirty. Even in all the 3 house and hope routes where Dimitri loses, he still go down a warrior. Eldelgard has 0 dignity in this route, even in 3 houses, she at least fight til dead.
@@ray0064not to mention, claude's death is treated as impactful through the game *(I've never done it so can't confirm but apparently should you kill claude in 3 houses the almayrans don't stop attacking in CF they'll be a recurring battle)*
@@Ninjaananas exactly, it’s the biggest reasons why I think Azure Gleam is the worse of the 3 routes, even worse than Golden Wildfire that many people really hate. It sucks that part 1 is so strong but part 2 falls flat on it’s face
@@regulusking4299 The stuff with Edelgard in Azure Gleam was simply the single worst writing decision in the whole Fodlan saga. It absolutly crushed AG, which was initially really hype, so hard against the wall, it is almost beyond repair. I am suprised that Golden Wildfire is actually so hated. Is it because Claude joins Edelgard? Because I loved that. I can see the issues that the route is too jumpy and barely commits to something, tends to be narratively boring, and that Claude again barely follows his own ambitions. And then there is the Randolph thing. That being said, Scarlet Blaze is the best route of the game. Al around solid, just the ending a bit underwhelming.
@@Ninjaananas 100% agreed. The only noteworthy part about part 2 of Azure Gleam is not recruiting Byleth in that route is the better writing decision than the other routes do and leaves more emotional impact
@@NinjaananasI agree. I love Part I of Azure Gleam, and Dimitri is my favorite of the three lords. But his route and Edelgard's development in Part II suck real bad. It's all just, "gotta hot foot it to the Empire to quickly end the war." It's such terribly basic writing. Still, I think Part I of AG was amazing, and trumps anything that GW had going for it. At least it solves my problem of Claude actually growing some balls, standing his ground and fighting with his team despite the uphill struggle. But that's about it. Scarlet Blaze imo is the most consistent route. I don't think it's particularly amazing, but it's not falling over like the other two routes. So I'd agree it's the overall best.
Ok so basically spoilers: . . . . . . Is there any difference in the cutscene that plays after the lords get sent to Zahras in the three routes (aka the lords and Shez trying to figure out what kind of situation they’re in)?
@Меѳодїи Well I know which route I’m going. Sothis help me I will shove Dimitri spear at Thales ass! By Rhea divine hips I will do it!… Still sucks he can’t be ship with female Byleth at three hopes.
Not really, as tons of people die and tons of bad things happen to tons of others. Hell Edelgard is so physically and mentally traumatized that it looks worse than if she did die. I don't think golden routes would work in a good war story like this
Dude this fucked up first they make my boy Claude a War Criminal and they really fucking rehashed Hedgmon Edelgard? THE FUCK?? I’m glad I’ve spoiled the game for myself since I don’t have enough space on my switch to install or download Three Hopes.
Good story writing is good story writing. Just cause bad things happen to good people doesn't change that. The Hegemon wasn't a rehash, Claude was in unfortunate positions, etc. Don't be mad over nothing lol
