I think it’s worse in Birthright, where all three of the awakening characters will actively fight Corrin and try to kill them, and Laslow can even die fighting Corrin’s Army, in spite of the one thing they’re supposed to be doing in Fateslandia being helping Corrin.
So when Flora in Birthright tries to kill herself - everyone besides Felicia is sitting like muppets and does nothing. When Hinata, Oboro, Saizo, Kagero, Effie, Arthur, Peri or Laslow are greviously wounded in C/B - nobody cares and they're forgotten about. When Elise gets sliced like a bread - who cares, she's not playable. When Xander is bleeding after a battle - it's fine, let him die. When Scarlet gets hit by one fireball and might still be alive - nobody even tries to save her. When Arete, Mikoto and Sumeragi are wounded from battle - nobody bothers healing them. When Ryoma impales himself and and seemingly dies - let him, Conquest is supposed to be difficult. ... When Gunter impales himself and seemingly dies - everyone goes apeshit and does everything in their power to save him and it works. Man, i love Fates narrative.

the Reason for fate's sloppy story, is because the writers where trying to achieve too much with not enough time. Intelligents Systems had an idea for Fate to have three stories to appeal to everyone, but they realized that they didn't have enough writers. So they hired an outside writer, Shin Kibayashi was that writer. Intelligent Systems wanted Shin to write the outline for each pathway, what happened instead is that Shin wrote 500 pages for each pathway. Nintendo knew this was too long so they cut the story into pieces without the writers permission and the fact the Nintendo demanded Fates come on the Fire Emblem Anniversary only made things worse. Which resulted in this hilariously mess of a story. The good news this that there is a manga based on Fates that is a little better. Its called Fire Emblem If: the Crown of Niberlung.

This is almost exactly how I concluded my first Fates playthrough, except it wasn't an ironman and I never finished because I was so mad that I missed and somehow deleted the save file. I still haven't finished a Fates playthrough because now my DS is dead and I don't care enough to either fix my DS or get an emulator...

We still have to kill you all though" And then Corrin proceeds to slaughter them all in return, unlike every other chapter in the game where you kill people non-lethally. Oh god and the Ryoma chapter 😭. "Corrin you son of a bitch. You killed my family and now you die! Oh, but I will wait patiently for my revenge now that you're standing right in front of me." Love the design of that chapter, mind you. The narrative is just genuinely so bad its funny.
@@lenlen8417not do defend The garbage story or anything, but The reason why it was obvious for us that it was azura îs because she looks very anime and it's easy to spot her. But în reality, sometimes you have trouble noticing a friend of yours wearing glassess or a small mask
It’s an okay game in a vacuum, but since it’s slapped right between the powerhouse that is Awakening, and the decent but sometimes odd Gaiden remake, it’s immediacy pretty ass. I personally like it cause it has imo the strongest class customization in the series and it adds decent replay value through that, but the story truly is garbage.
this is the chapter where both valla, nohr and hoshido finally agree that corrins chosen one bullshit is going way to far and decide to finally put a stop to her
"Corrin is a centrist, which is worse than siding with their enemies" As a IRL centrist, it's true. Some people get more offended at the notion of trying to understand both sides than just picking one and pitching tent. I think it is because these people suffer from us vs them mentality so bad that it upsets them when you're not with them, and legitimately confuses them that you're not against them either. It almost makes them act introspective for once, and that is no good, lol.
Horrible maps and gimmicks, snow shoveling, awful story that reveals almost nothing and îs just a golden route for The children to be happy "yaaaaaay everyone lives yaaay happy times." Not to mention The awful designed maps with unfair difficulty unlike conquest. The only thing that îs ok I guess îs that you have all The units from conquest and birthright to play with, that's fine I guess.
The gameplay, characters, art and most maps (mainly CQ) are great The characters are very charismatic and have remarkable visuals. Three Houses also has those one dimensional characters and nobody complains, also, the cast in Three Houses has probably one of the most boring character desings of the series, thing that Fates has one of the best (no, i ain't hating 3H, i like it too)
