@@fantasygaming8718 It's the church route. You choose to side with Rhea instead of Edelgard, and in the end, you end up with a worse Fodland than before.
And she has a learning goal for the same class as Jeralt, add the fact that her cannon post-timeskip class is Paladin just like Jeralt. This girl needs more help than Dimitri and Edelgard.
Supports with Byleth: on level with Fates Obsessed with Jeralt Supports with other characters: pretty damn good Good unit overall Really good post time skip design
Well, if the battle of Nemesis didn't exist, we could have perfectly added a map where Dimitri asks for help to the Kingdom to kill Cornelia. But...still, I remember Dimitri mentioning subtly that if it wasn't for Byleth, he would have died in vain for revenge...and that's how it went in GD.
@@kellyjohana516 That still doesn't make sense. In the blue lion route, Dimitri still doesn't listen to Byleth and is still in his "Kill every last one of them" mode at this point of the story and the only thing that prevents him to die is Dedue telling him that he should retreat, not Byleth. Dedue is by his side in the golden deer route so there is no reason at all that he would suddenly die in this route where every condition for his survival is there. HUGE SPOILER FOR BLUE LION ROUTE BELOW : Also, what really allowed him to change was Felix's father sacrificing himself for him so Byleth really doesn't make a huge difference. END OF SPOILER So I really think it's bad writing.
@@n0dash18 I mean, all of them wait for you so it doesn't really seem like that big of a deal. Getting with Dimitri was far more satisfying and had much more build up over the game anyway.
sj4iy In that case, wouldn’t it also not be that big of a deal to wait for Claude for a little bit? He has king stuff he needs to do. Fix Almyra, kill racism, etc. Also, while the game itself practically ships Byleth and Dimitri, that doesn’t mean that it needs to ship Byleth and Claude. That’s why you can S-Support practically anyone in the game. This game encourages you to bang your favorite character after four meaningful and adorable conversations! And that character isn’t always a Lord. Sometimes it’s a tsundere, a girl with crippling depression, Harry Potter with lime-colored hair, or Bernie!
@@n0dash18 It's more a cumulative effect of how Claude actually treats you all the way through the game. He's very manipulative and even wants you to hand over your father's diary immediately after death. He even says in Blue Lions that he doesn't do anything unless it benefits himself...which is true. It's easy to think that he's the most personable of the three but the truth is that his antics (and his absolute refusal to just tell your character about HIS secrets which are completely obvious) really does wear on you as the game goes on. When it culminates in "hey I'm leaving you to run the country so I can become king of Almyra but hey...wait for me, 'kay?" it left a bad taste in my mouth.
That situation with Leonie is 200% accurate. Why on Earth didn't her B support involve Byleth and Leonie coming together to comfort each other and remember Jeralt together? Who the hell thought her B support unlocking after your father's death was a smart design choice? She's a great unit but is easily the character I'd change the most in terms of dialogue in game.
*Leonie laying on the ground with a concussion* "and that's when she learned not to scream at a mercenary after they lose their father about not appreciating their father"
@@DragoonIceX Making her my early game Pegasus knight was one of the best decisions on my current Golden Deer playthrough. She's a monster with like 40 strength and speed at level 38. But damn, her personality doesn't fit well with the rest of the house. She almost needs a complete character rewrite. Which is a shame because her paralogue with Linhardt (about the struggle for commoners in the alliance) is actually really great development wise and it's a side of her that I did like. Why couldn't they just focus on that aspect instead since it brings up problems that are legitimate with the nobility taking advantage of the common people.
When I started my first playthrough with GD, I planned to go for her S Rank. Around the time of the B support, I decided that, actually, she's really Felix's type.
@@l.n.3372 You still get that good aspect to her with other supports such as Lorenz's support with her. It's only really Byleth's supports that iirc me in terms of characterisation.
Claude just wants you to enjoy your year time. I couldn't believe how different things were in the other routes, I kept on laughing on my first route, things got sad and/or serious on the other ones.
@@missquark_ that's so true lol, and i thought death knight was a weak ass cos i always use Lysithea to beat him up, and after i go to blue lion route i was like.. why is death knight so op
@@sprongtrop5691 did you grind out levels for your characters in the battle sections that's what I did in the black eagles guy was level 55 at the end of it all
0:52 This. THIS RESONATES WITHIN ME ON A METAPHYSICAL LEVEL This poorly timed Support Conversation just planted an unreasonable disdain within me towards Leonie, and a weird habit of shouting "OH MY GOD LEONIE WHAT WOULD JERALT SAY?!" whenever she missed or got hit in battle.
I choked lmao I mean I think when she's defeated her line is something or other about letting Jeralt down from what I remember and I was always like "Yup. You did, you're a failure human."
Ignatz painting Kirby is probably the most adorable thing I have seen today. Also, this is a very accurate point of view of my GD playthrough but it needs some dubstep and God-shattering star to be perfectly accurate.
1. The dubstep during the shambala battle threw me for a LOOP but oh boy did i like it 2. I had to sit back and reorganise my head after rhea dropped all the info at the end 3. Hell yea ending racism our boye claude is woke
I've been waiting on this one! I wish Leonie shut the hell up during all those support conversations. Dissing me for not appreciating Jeralt even after he dead then she tried to apologize before going for me again! I was laughing but at the same time throwing comebacks
1:36 Worst part? The description we got matches that image pretty well. He went after Edelgard, collapsed from exhaustion (he got beat up pretty badly in the chapter, after all), and was promptly turned into a human pincushion by Edelgard's troops.
I don't know why but when dimitri's death pic panned out and showed Dedue's horrified face, I busted out laughing. It was so funny for no reason. God I'm awful. XD
Always felt like Leonie is a great character otherwise ruined by the perfect timing of her supports. I mean. Her support with other characters are great. To be fair though, Byleth gets the worst supports for every character.
You know I really feel like that whole lore dump could’ve been lightened somewhat if they’d put some of it in the Black Eagles route? It would make sense given the direction of the route and the fact Edelgard literally works with TWSITD and confronts Rhea? Also the BE is the shortest route by a few chapters meaning adding some extra ones to do this would have resolved that issue and made the overall route have a more satisfying conclusion?
Wait.... DOES NEMESIS AND THE SCIFI PLACE AND ALL THE LORE ABOUT THE RELICS BEING MADE OF THE BODIES OF RHEA'S FRIENDS AND FAMILY *NOT* COME UP IN THE OTHER ROUTES?
I'm in Chapter 21 of Blue Lions. Nothing still. There wasn't even Jabelins of Light when I invaded Fort Merceus. Everything that is lore in this route seems to be only related to the Tragedy of Duscur.
@@nomblob5592 Well, the death of Raphael's parents was his fault because he allowed the Empire to perform some suspicious actions there. However, I'll rather see that as an intent for him to not angry them. We knew what the Empire did to House Ordelia after they helped another house in a conflict with the Empire and the others in the Alliance did nothing to help them when the Agarthans did their thing. Sir Gloucester must have felt this will turn out like that.
They hype it up as the final battle and then, surprise! There's still three chapters left that are almost completely unrelated to the plot up to this point.
And you know what? The game doesn't even give you a choice. Sometimes Byleth legit doesn't seem to appreciate Jeralt. When asked if Jeralt is their father, the responses are: "I don't know." and "That's what I'm told." wtf those aren't even choices. "I respect him, of course." Sounds kinda robotic. But I guess actually giving the player options would be too much work, Leonie would have to have 2 different sets of support conversations if that was the case.
Same with Seteth's support. I suppose Byleth was supposed to be kind of amnesiac or he doesn't hold any memories. He could also have no feelings for Jeralt before the monastery and the word father is meaningless on his stone heart.
Kelly Johana Kinda weird though since the prologue implies Byleth at least has some ounce of trust in him as a fatherly figure (such as explaining his problems.) Just that he was very to himself most of the time in the mercenaries and never clicked with them for whatever reason (probably because most of them may have been older, versus the monastery where your work is trying to educate others primarily, with the selection being people younger or around your age. Much better company for a growing young mind than a group of mostly adults drinking booze sharing tales and picking up wenches.)
Oh many Leonie makes me sooooo mad she probably one of my least favorite characters. I mean I still love her bunches but I can’t stand her too. For her, meeting and training with Jeralt was the single most important time in her life but for Byleth and Jeralt, it was Tuesday. The sad part is she doesn’t get that.
I honestly feel like you should have been able to view Leonie's B support before Jeralt died. You'd have to have minor dialogue changes, but considering what she says in that support, the timing of it unlocking is just not good. I feel like it could have maybe worked if they played up that she was saying this out of grief. It would still be a terrible thing to say, but at least it wouldn't feel as though she was saying it so matter-of-factly.
I know, right. It bothered me that only the Golden Deer route felt like the true ending of the game, while Blue Lion and Black Eagle's endings felt kind of lacking. I mean, Claude is cool, but Dimitri and Edelgard deserved better :/
BL - Character Drama GD - Lore and friendship BE - Ideals coming reality aka What id the most Sympathetic but heavily Flawed Bad Guy Wins Church - Alabama 101 Or BL - Persona 3 /Law GD - P4/Neutral BE - P5/Chaos Silver Snow - Neutral but painted white and green.
I can understand that not everything can be explained in every route but some key elements should be. For example in BL Route you know basically nothing about Byleth but his character should be explained in every route He is the main Protagonist
Did anyone else set all their units up around nemesis and was preparing to have an epic battle with all their students attacking but ended up one shot crit with blyth(also yes I know I'm a year late to the game I just got it went lysynthia btw)
This is easily my favorite route in the whole game (at least compared to the Black Eagles); the cast was the most unique (and colorful) with some amazing supports (even Leonie, when she isn't talking to you), and Claude is the MC to which I will compare to future characters in the FE series. Nintendo didn't do the Golden 🦌 justice with how they pushed Edelgard so much; Claude is the true hero of Three Houses!
My only peeve with GD route is that it felt like the rest of the world had just kind of brushed off the Alliance/Deers. Empire considered the Kingdom their rival, didn't even really bother with the Alliance. Dimitri's forces tried attacking us **while** we were trying to take down the empire, and only Dedue had a shred of sanity left. Rhea hangs on to her secrets until the very, very last moment, despite the fact we saved her. Nemesis seemed to show up out of nowhere, tries to end the church, gets the same treatment the Empire did. It really felt like so much pain could have been avoided if everyone had bothered to talk to us. Claude was totally on board with both bringing down the church AND the ones who Slither in the Dark - Empire+Deer might have made a great team, had Edie just talked to them.
@@BlueShellshock You're right: A LOT of problems could have been avoided if people (namely Edelgard and Claude, since their beliefs are so deeply aligned) actually talked; maybe the war with the ⛪ wouldn't have happened.
Well it took you a good while to make this but well greatness does take time I mean this is the video of how it feels to play the best house of three great houses!
i dont know what was better, "F support" or the fake moustaches The ironic thing is that Leonie is pretty chill in most her supports she just doesn't seem to like Byleth very much. I guess even their heroic charisma can't work on everybody.
I love playing the golden deer route still my favorite currently still on blue lion but man this game legit made me said I f**k up when the 5 years later part started because I killed almost all the students that I didn't recruit except Dorothea she join my class by herself
Leonie: You obviously don't care about your father Captain Jeralt cause you don't fangirl over him every 5 seconds. Also Leonie: *casually mentions father (who is freakin alive) once in the entire game*
My first playthrough was GD. And I am really hoping the other two have better endings, let me tell you. The end of this video got it right. Such dramatic buildup as there is is all about the fight against the empire, then the last two missions do a double Necron Syndrome introducing new true enemies. And Claude isn't actually hiding anything of interest. Doing a BL playthrough now, and so far it's a lot more promising. They got a lot more involvement with the empire than just being in the way.
it honestly feels wasteful. edelgard and Claude had similar goals, and Claude was too inquisitive to let rhea hide her secrets. more could have been done with that. But hey, at least gd had some of the best characters (except for Leonie and Lorenz)
@@kosmic100 With you on the campaign, although I'd replace Leoni with Hilda. I dumped Hilda and Lorentz together, cause I felt they deserved each other, and Lorentz's shtick of offering assistance to show his nobility and demanding respect matched perfectly with Hilda trying to pass off all work by doing a teehee-thank-you. But Leoni, while it could have been timed and written better, brings something to the supports that is sorely lacking: Not gushing over how awesome Byleth is.
Don’t get me wrong I love LOVE GD but damn finding out Rhea was Seiros the whole time in a last min lore dump before the final battle was.....an interesting choice. Thank fuck for Claude though, love me some Claude.
Locking Leonie's B support behind Jeralt's death felt like a really poor decision considering the fact that she just yells at you more instead of coming together and mourning his loss. I imagine Byleth was like: B*tch my father just died. You really gonna start this sh*t now?
Will you do the silver snow route?

Just that he was very to himself most of the time in the mercenaries and never clicked with them for whatever reason (probably because most of them may have been older, versus the monastery where your work is trying to educate others primarily, with the selection being people younger or around your age. Much better company for a growing young mind than a group of mostly adults drinking booze sharing tales and picking up wenches.)
Don't you mean, How it feels to play THE BEST HOUSE
Stop shoving your opinions, bud
As a guy who just finished this route as their 1st one today this is totally accurate.
2:01-2:08 Good summary of the last part of this route.
And the best part of the Game too
Oh many Leonie makes me sooooo mad she probably one of my least favorite characters. I mean I still love her bunches but I can’t stand her too. For her, meeting and training with Jeralt was the single most important time in her life but for Byleth and Jeralt, it was Tuesday. The sad part is she doesn’t get that.
always good to see someone give their respect to M Bison.
Story wise she is grating, gameplay wise she is pretty op
Leonie oversteps so many boundaries I CAN'T
No Dedue singlehandedly beating the shit out of the Empire after Dimitri dies, 0/10
...Ok but for real tho, this is some great stuff
I honestly feel like you should have been able to view Leonie's B support before Jeralt died. You'd have to have minor dialogue changes, but considering what she says in that support, the timing of it unlocking is just not good. I feel like it could have maybe worked if they played up that she was saying this out of grief. It would still be a terrible thing to say, but at least it wouldn't feel as though she was saying it so matter-of-factly.
This is so accurate! I felt like everything after you fight the other two houses felt so tacked on at the last minute 😅.
The final part should have been an Earrape version of God-Shattering Star with Nemesis' face just spinning.
"Support Level F" was when I completely lost it.

wheres the part where everyone s supports claude? but other than that 10/10 best route accurate vid
During that whole scene my Byleth had Claude and Sylvian hold her back as she wanted to beat the shit out of Leonie after she had lost her own father.
Love that attack on Titan Nemesis face LOL
Lmao totally agree about leonie
1:41
Sneak 100
Plus, those disguises ON POINT
(Edit: Changed the timestamp)
It is really sad that only on the GD route you get so much lore explanation
Yeah, like the other paths basically dance around every chance to explain shit to me only for one big info dump at the end of Golden Deer.
I know, right. It bothered me that only the Golden Deer route felt like the true ending of the game, while Blue Lion and Black Eagle's endings felt kind of lacking. I mean, Claude is cool, but Dimitri and Edelgard deserved better :/
I thought Blue Lions felt most like a real ending tbh. I felt both Blyeth and Dimitri are the main characters of the whole game tbh.
BL - Character Drama
GD - Lore and friendship
BE - Ideals coming reality aka What id the most Sympathetic but heavily Flawed Bad Guy Wins
Church - Alabama 101
Or
BL - Persona 3 /Law
GD - P4/Neutral
BE - P5/Chaos
Silver Snow - Neutral but painted white and green.
I can understand that not everything can be explained in every route but some key elements should be. For example in BL Route you know basically nothing about Byleth but his character should be explained in every route He is the main Protagonist
I love it when they sneak up behind the death night in their disguises 😅 Honestly I never thought that plan would work
Did anyone else set all their units up around nemesis and was preparing to have an epic battle with all their students attacking but ended up one shot crit with blyth(also yes I know I'm a year late to the game I just got it went lysynthia btw)
"And's that's all the lore we couldn't put into the story"
OMG YASSS I WAS WAITING FOR THIS
THANKS THANKS THANKS!
Basically... it feels great.
Such precision, much dedication.
i was waiting so much for this one. awesome.
Guys Leonie isn’t a bad character, her B support just should’ve been available before Jerult’s death.
Yeah, the timing of that was weird.
Needs more dubstep and ending racism.
But aside from that, accurate!
Yay I was waiting for it thank you :D
This is easily my favorite route in the whole game (at least compared to the Black Eagles); the cast was the most unique (and colorful) with some amazing supports (even Leonie, when she isn't talking to you), and Claude is the MC to which I will compare to future characters in the FE series. Nintendo didn't do the Golden 🦌 justice with how they pushed Edelgard so much; Claude is the true hero of Three Houses!
My only peeve with GD route is that it felt like the rest of the world had just kind of brushed off the Alliance/Deers.
Empire considered the Kingdom their rival, didn't even really bother with the Alliance. Dimitri's forces tried attacking us **while** we were trying to take down the empire, and only Dedue had a shred of sanity left. Rhea hangs on to her secrets until the very, very last moment, despite the fact we saved her. Nemesis seemed to show up out of nowhere, tries to end the church, gets the same treatment the Empire did.
It really felt like so much pain could have been avoided if everyone had bothered to talk to us. Claude was totally on board with both bringing down the church AND the ones who Slither in the Dark - Empire+Deer might have made a great team, had Edie just talked to them.
@@BlueShellshock You're right: A LOT of problems could have been avoided if people (namely Edelgard and Claude, since their beliefs are so deeply aligned) actually talked; maybe the war with the ⛪ wouldn't have happened.
0:57 Poor Leonie, literally the worst time for a B support XD
Now the fandom will forever hate you~
Leonie kinda deserve a smack on this one
@@johnclopez96 It's symbolism XD
Seriously though, it's just bad timing.
I love Leonie
This is best one of all of them by far
Well it took you a good while to make this but well greatness does take time I mean this is the video of how it feels to play the best house of three great houses!
i love your vids! keep em up!
i dont know what was better, "F support" or the fake moustaches
The ironic thing is that Leonie is pretty chill in most her supports she just doesn't seem to like Byleth very much. I guess even their heroic charisma can't work on everybody.
I love playing the golden deer route still my favorite currently still on blue lion but man this game legit made me said I f**k up when the 5 years later part started because I killed almost all the students that I didn't recruit except Dorothea she join my class by herself
I didn't recruit anyone but I safe them all thanks to the Power of warp and strike.
@@Neonlight3934yeah same
Byletg to Leonie: if you like him so much i give you place next to him
0:01 lmao as a first timer cuerently on BE route, i noticed i only recruited leonie from Golden deer while almost everyone from Blue lions lol
*why would you do this*
Leonie: You obviously don't care about your father Captain Jeralt cause you don't fangirl over him every 5 seconds.
Also Leonie: *casually mentions father (who is freakin alive) once in the entire game*
The golden deer route is basically all of the fujos getting mad male byleth can't get with claude
1:31 Top 10 saddest anime deaths
What's this? a parody of the Golden Deer route with no God Shattering Star? This situation calls for..
GOD SHATTERING STAR
1:31 People have said that apparently it’s better to use imagination of how Dimitri died…
And you did a great job! 😄
Still sad though..
My first playthrough was GD. And I am really hoping the other two have better endings, let me tell you. The end of this video got it right. Such dramatic buildup as there is is all about the fight against the empire, then the last two missions do a double Necron Syndrome introducing new true enemies. And Claude isn't actually hiding anything of interest.
Doing a BL playthrough now, and so far it's a lot more promising. They got a lot more involvement with the empire than just being in the way.
it honestly feels wasteful. edelgard and Claude had similar goals, and Claude was too inquisitive to let rhea hide her secrets. more could have been done with that. But hey, at least gd had some of the best characters (except for Leonie and Lorenz)
@@kosmic100 With you on the campaign, although I'd replace Leoni with Hilda. I dumped Hilda and Lorentz together, cause I felt they deserved each other, and Lorentz's shtick of offering assistance to show his nobility and demanding respect matched perfectly with Hilda trying to pass off all work by doing a teehee-thank-you.
But Leoni, while it could have been timed and written better, brings something to the supports that is sorely lacking: Not gushing over how awesome Byleth is.
Don’t get me wrong I love LOVE GD but damn finding out Rhea was Seiros the whole time in a last min lore dump before the final battle was.....an interesting choice. Thank fuck for Claude though, love me some Claude.
Locking Leonie's B support behind Jeralt's death felt like a really poor decision considering the fact that she just yells at you more instead of coming together and mourning his loss.
I imagine Byleth was like: B*tch my father just died. You really gonna start this sh*t now?
Church route next
Honestly I was expecting Thales to be at a DJ booth lol but this was a riot regardless
Hahah that poorly timed support conversation with Leonie is too on point, felt like throwing salt at a fresh wound
Leonie's annoying supports will make her death sooo satisfying when I get around to doing the black eagles route.
Does anyone else see this giant mustache on dedue at 1:37 ?
I’m surprised you didn’t add in the Area 51 raid.
Who can’t relate to someone who loves to eat, or someone who does like to work, or someone who is up to their necks in student loan debt?
Stop hating on Leonie, it's not HER fault the developers stupidly locked that particular support behind that chapter
Teach and Leonie have attained Support Level F...as in 'Fuck you, Leonie.'
im so sorry to any leonie fans
i
just
dont
like
her
I don’t like her character at all. As a unit though she bulldozed through everything lysithea didn’t blow into the next life.
Her support with Byleth are terrible, but, except that, she's an OK character and a fantastic unit
right!? my dad just died and here she is accusing me of being the worst kid he ever had
@@Bludgeoned2DEATH2 She's about the tankiest archer in the series. Woman takes less damage than my armor knights Sylvain and Raph.
Congratulations! Your comment got a dislike!
Edit: I love Leonie, she is so cute and beautiful!
Church route next!
