**See video length** Now this is a Main Character alright, look at all those interactions. But then again, all of the Characters do have their own unique take for the Ring and Ending scenes, which with how varied they all are is quite the impressive feat.
Honestly he put some scenes that were not necessarily romantic or paired with Alain. The same could have be done with Virginia, Rosalinde, Eltolinde and some others and the length size would increase significantly.
Unfortunately, I had to keep some scenes in for some continuity. Although, I disagree with this being done with others. They don't really have any romantic scenes or relationship scenes beyond one or two scenes + the recruitment scene. For the biggest direct example, Rosalinde would have her 2 brief flirting moments, and her intro.
@@GreyCaliber well i personally disagree. Eltolinde and Rosalinde have the scene when they gave Alain the Ring of the Maiden for example, which later on will have its continuity when engaging in romance. Eltolinde also has that moment when Alcina is trying to possess her body. She was pretty much trying to use Eltolinde's body as a vessel to be with Alain when Gerard's soul takes his body. That moment can also be applied to Yahna. Yahna and Alain's relationship is a parallel to Gerard/Alcina's relationship. All the moments with Alcina and her flashbacks can be applied to Yahna's romance as well.
So, to clarify a bit, I meant that you could not do a lengthy amount of romance scenes ,like Scarlett, with most of the other 50+ characters in the game. Sure you can add like 3-10 minutes of fluff scenes, but Scarlett has two regions. Alcina's total scenes are around 5 minutes long. Sure you can add Alcina to Yahna's romance, but its still about 1 scene with 2 context scenes. I don't really get what Alcina has to do with Eltolinde's romance and scenes, beyond introducing Eltolinde in the first scene. The maiden ring explanation scene is 3 minutes long(less for Eltolinde), while Rosalinda's extra scene at the altar is 2 minutes long. Those two scenes are what I meant by Rosalinde's flirting scenes as one changes based on rapport level. Its more of, you won't be able to do a hour long video with anyone else even if you included every non-romantic scene kind of thing.
The scenes don't necessarily need to be related to romance. It is all about continuity as you said. Half of those scenes with Scarlett aren't romantic but since she has a lot of scenes you can add so the viewer can see the big picture of the romance. The same could be applied with other characters. Some like Eltolinde, Rosalinde, Virginia, etc have many scenes that add up a lot to the main romance route. They won't reach over 1h like Scarlett because those chars didnt start with us like Scarlett (although Joseph would surely surpass her).
Alain: "I'd like you to have the Ring of the Maiden." Scarlett: "Isn't there someone else you'd rather give it to? Or am I the most convenient choice?" Alain: *Sighs* "You may be right. It is clear my feelings for you might be a passing folly or mere friendship despite *everything* we've been through together. The sleepless nights and bouts of lost appetite I had from our separation early on meant very little apparently. I guess you wanted me to forget your jealously and confirming that you might indeed feel the same way. Forgive me, Scarlett. I apologize for wasting your time." *Starts walking away* Scarlett: "Oh dear Father, no... *ALAIN! I'M SORRY! I DIDN'T MEAN WHAT I SAID! I WAS JUST PLAYING THE TSUNDERE FROM SHOCK OF IMMENSE JOY! PLEASE DON'T GOO!!"* I knew Scarlett was the Developer Desired Date of Unicorn Overlord (She's not the only one, Rosalinde & Melisandre got *heavy* shipping focus too), but I never thought it was *THIS DEEP!* An *hour* long? No wonder GreyCaliber held this video for last. The ship tease is sprinkled even to Albion? That'll be interesting to see once I get there. Still like Scarlett personally. Love how she's got a double wholesomeness factor to her from being a childhood friend & holy woman combo, but she's blessed with eternal stiff shoulders for being a bakery. And the fact that she's the only healer in the game that's the personification of "I'm a [Priestess], but..."
For real, the man is literally proposing to her and she still can't drop the playing hard to get act. Scarlett, the elf sisters sitting on your strong shoulders are not real, they can't hurt you!
@DouglasStewart99 Boy, u must deserved being pinned comment on this video. 😅 Tbh, both of them have an indeed pitiful time they had been through, *ESPECIALLY* if Alain did'nt rescue Scarlett from the start. If I were her, I should *NEVER* be a red flag, even being a confusing, ironic, orthodox religious, priestess I have ever realized this game. No offense, but respect really matters all the time!!!
I will always choose a Bland Vanilla over a Spicy NTR. Seriously, if the gender were reversed, and Female Alain was stolen from Male Scarlett by a flirty Male Rosalinde or other character, I bet people calling Scarlett bland on this video will instead shout "NTR!", "Female Alain belongs to the street", etc.
My Two Cents: Scarlett makes sense as the "Canon" romance entirely due to narrative and story demands. Her character also works for it far better than the others. A criticism of some of the English dialogue for the game is the Robin Hood Men in Tights style of speech Alain uses in the game with several of the potential romances. Scarlet's romance lacks this trait. The Norbelle events if you refuse to save her, apart from punishing you for trying to pull a George R. R. Martin or a Marion Zimmer Bradley (Who is burning in hell as we speak), also make clear the consequences of refusing this. Ultimately, Unicorn Overlord is a story for epic fantasy and the Scarlett romance just feels right due solely to the nature of the story being told, with both Alain and Scarlett's characters fitting nicely into said story. Chloe and Melisandre feel like the Developer's wish fulfillment choices, several of the others feel like obvious fetish bait, while others feel like the sort of player wish fulfillment scenarios one wants after reading a couple of Manga.
I still believe that Celeste is also an excellent choice for a True Ending Alain, specifically because of the flowery fairy tale speech, and the fact that he needs to be merciful in this kind of playthrough, and she befriends the people he had spared in the past. It's the kind of link to the narrative that I enjoy and makes me think they both share the same values. Some people consider her to be fetish bait, but that's not all there is to her
Me too I like Vanilla and loyalty. I don't know why other will choose other girl when you already have a loyal childhood friend. Seriously, if the gender were reversed, and Female Alain was stolen from Male Scarlett, I bet the people calling Scarlett bland on this video will instead shout "NTR!" "Female Alain belongs to the street", etc.
I just finished this game and thank the heavens you made this, i knew you love this game deeply and I would do the same to, guess i been beaten to it huh xD, but Thank you for this, i will share.
To all of you who hate Scarlet, just play the games and choose other LI, and see what become of her.... Of all Alain's queen candidate whom not chosen, Scarlet is the only one who never moved on. After the story, she relinquish her pontifex title, leaving everything behind and retreat herself to Palevia cathedral. But the saddest thing is, the poor girl still preach about how amazing Alain was until the rest of her life.
Is it just me, or someone here in the comments are probably too harsh on Scarlett? She may not a perfect childhood friend and Priestess, especially to go back in a Palevia after the story. But as long as she doesn't wanted being abandoned by Alain, she has plenty time of how becoming a true humanity, right? I still believe in her, no bias haters allowed here to reply.
I think the main problem is the cliche of the childhood friend, there are so many histories of the protagonism falling in love with his/her friend, and because of that when we can choose, we discart that option because the cliche. I like Scarlett but she doesn't impress me like Yunifi, Rosalinde or Melissandre. But that's my case
She’s sweet and obviously favored by the developers, but honestly she just feels kind of generic to me. Not enough spice in her personality, she’s just kind of a nice girl.
Same here. And honestly I feel that's pretty typical of most "main girls" across many RPGs. Her big thing is that she's the sweet childhood friend and that's it. Also doesn't help that she pulls the whole "I won't lose to the other girls' attitude that many girls of her archetype have, which I'm not a fan of but Japan seems to love.
@@MrSentinel07Yeah, this is the typical main girl in Japan's eyes. On the western world, we already had games in the early 2000s like Dragon Age Origins, in which your options for female romance were Morrigan, an incredly skeptical and pragmatic witch or Leliana, a cold blooded assassin in seek of her redemption and trying to see the better things in the world. If we go back to Baldur's Gate with Viconia and the others, oh boy...
To me scarlett was a guide and had an important role in her own country so yeeting her out there for the sake of romance is kinda bad for me especially the only option they had back there in albion was an unstable brat who will most likely decive devouts. (out of all the stupidest recruitment in this game that had no consequences that had to be the worst)
I’m sorry compare to the other girls she doesn’t come close to interesting enough she’s just there makes it worse that I don’t like her 3rd rapport makes me want to give her the ring even less I get it if was me in this situation but that definitely turn me off of her….
@@GreyCaliber I understand your position in not including Norbelle's scenes. However, they also bring Alain's relationship with Scarlet, of course, with a tragic end. so much so that in the first scene before starting the level Lex says: "Wouldn't it be better to rescue Scarlett?"
Best Girl for me is a toss up between Scarlett and Chloe. Both give Alain different things that he needs on an emotional level. Now if only they had the guts to also make Lex a romance option to round out the Childhood Friend options.
@@cousinpizza6958Yes. While some of the guys have some vaguely romantic comments, there aren’t any same-sex marriages when it comes to the Ring of the Maiden. For what’s it worth, Lex’s ring scene is very sweet in its own way though.
AFter this it feels really wrong to see another Cliche, whatever, call her like that if you want, but cmon, It really feels like the logical option (Also the fact that she haves an entire history dedicated to her love while the others have like...maximum 4 chats about it, from what i have seen)
They don’t have a queen, they’re a theocracy so she would have been a Pontifex but I’m guessing the death of her father in that position was more painful than she even admitted. Even then some people don’t like to be in charge of others and she may just be that kind of person.
I wouldn't say Scarlett is generic, just that while I was playing the game she felt the most..."Obvious" for who they wanted you to give the ring to. Scarlett is very bold and headstrong for your archetypal priestess character, Sharon being way more "Generic". She has a very kind heart, and she's inspired to be stronger by those around her. My entire playthrough, knowing Unicorn Overlord's inspirations, I kept having to tell myself "Sorry Scarlett, you aren't gonna be the first one" consciously, because of the alarming amount of screentime she got.
Acts heartbroken when rejected but (initially) pretend she is being the convenient option if chosen. At least Melisandre is consistent. I still kinda like her and respect (lol) VANILLAware's decision to make her "canon" though.
Honestly, Scarlett isn’t even vanilla. She’s no more sweet than any other woman in the army and most of her scenes are tinted with jealousy or Alain just not showing any signs of reciprocation. I feel the revelation that her father told her to keep an eye on Alain does more harm than good. It makes their entire relationship feel less organic and more of an obligation. Really puts that “making a convenient choice” comment in the ring ceremony in a new context too. No offense to any Scarlett fans, but this romance is a mess.
This is an interesting take, to be sure, but I don't think Scarlett knew Alain was the chosen one, just like Alain didn't know Scarlett was basically the next pope. I suppose you could also look at it like a political marriage, but one that blossoms into genuine love. Just my thoughts.
Realtalk: If the gender were reversed, and Female Alain was stolen from Male Scarlett, I bet people calling Scarlett bland on this video will instead shout “NTR!”, “Female Alain belongs to the street!”, etc.
To be fair, it depends on the context and how the characters are portrayed. Imagine the flak male Scarlett would get if he used the same words that female Scarlett did.
