no way he named corrin after me
29:34 It’s funny this jester dude is somehow the most competent character in the entire game. He manages to capture all the Hoshido royalty in Conquest, in Birthright he has the 3 billion IQ play of intentionally taking a hit knowing there’s a healer nearby, and on Revelation he manages to get his hands on a snow nuke
unfortunately the nuke malfunctions burying his forces in a glacier.
still more competent than the royals
@seizalez8096 not a very high bar to pass lmao
@@HelterwithoutSkelter To be fair, literally threatening to kidnap and kill the Hoshidan royals *_in neutral territory_* is, for various IRL political and social reasons, a total boneheaded decision, and it’s not like the royals are exactly stupid even if the story ultimately paints them in unfortunate corners. Which is more attributable to the fact Fates’ story is as buggy as Cyberpunk 2077’s launch, despite the underlying content being rock solid. And unfortunately, you can’t exactly patch a story once it’s done, no matter how solid your core is.
I wish Garon hadn't killed him in Birthright. Just imagine, Zola betrays the party, but tries to plead for Corrin's life, but fails. Several maps later he is commanding his own division against Corrin in an epic battle of trickery and deceit in a fortress where he has clones of himself and staff users warping them all over the place and after the battle Iago or Hans tries to blow up the ceiling and Zola will have their last chance to redeem themselves and push Corrin and Sakura (the healer), out of the way.
“You know, FUCK that [player] guy, am I right?” is a perfect summation of Iago’s entire character.
I love how Iago isn’t even connected to an evil dragon cult or anything like Gharnef, Nergal, Validar were. He’s just like a really petty HOA board member
@@CGFillertext Iago is one of those characters that are likable because he's the kind of person who'd post "IT'S SO OVER" of AI-generated art of impossible hourglass figure "boobs-as-big-as-their-head" girls with baby faces -- basically be a techbro grifter. He's so slimy that you can't help but admire that level of petty vindictiveness, like a kid in the chess club who became the big cheese (right, Todd Howard)?.
Fates is one of the games of all time, and I really can't help but love it even given the little shit like this. And it ironically makes sense why Garon, who's basically Vigarde, wants to hire two psychopaths as his retainers; his goals are simple, destroy both kingdoms, and it just makes it overall a lot more interesting on the wholesale when you revolve it around that.
@@TheAxeLord47911Techbro Iago was so specific and awesome at the same time.
I need a mod that changes every Iago line into this
I love Iago because he just insults Corrin the entire time. Which is totally reasonable and almost agreeable
I absolutely loved listening to this man boldly lie right in front of me with a straight face for 40 minutes
I can't get over how that reddit post is technically reasonable since though he isn't the main character he can be a dlc character if you use the amiibo
except it's on the advance wars subreddit
@@rileymack1489 Ah.
@@rileymack1489war crimes for ever
"July 1st" and "I'm not playing a twink, I use games for escapism" took me out completely lol
It legitimately kills me that you could be this talented but not have enough traction via algorithm!! Dude, this is fucking gold!!!
He definitely needs to do the same for birthright and revelations. I can only imagine how crazy hilarious those ones would be. I’ll patiently wait for those.
For how many turns will you wait?
@@guydude439 I shall wait 99 turns. Hell, probably in the hundreds. That is sort of what happens when I grind units in fates. I love beating up those enemy units while listening to fates’ lovely music.
I wouldnt condemn my worst enemy to play Revelations.
@@normlord6357 lol. True. It’s so rushed. Too much condensed into so few chapters.
Nah Birthright story is alright. If anything, the game played it safe with its story. It’s conquest that deserves all the smack! Birthright good! Conquest bad!
You can guess who I sided with my first run.
Grumpuh: “you’re gay because you love men. IM gay because i hate my future daughter. we are not the same”
God, seeing such a well edited review of a near decade old Fire Emblem with modern memes, I never thought I'd see the day. I was hooked by the first minute but the Shadow Wizard Money gang earned my subscribe.
Hang on where did you get those voiced lines of Ryoma at 8:42 I don't think I've ever heard them before.
you were hooked, but were you also cooked?
> “A near decade old Fire Emblem”
> *body slowly turns into dust upon hearing that*
Don't call my newest (after Three Houses, Three Hopes, Engage, Echoes Shadows of Valentia) Fire Emblem Fates a decade-old game... S*** I'm just that old.
Near dec- no..nononononono
As a diehard Fates fan, seeing people talk about this game just makes me smile warmly. I love this game and all the joy it's brought me all these years, I love the characters, the gameplay, I even like the story and appreciate what it tries to do even as 70% of the final script was cut (and you know you're a fan when you made that reference in the Chapter 23 gag). It's just such a delightful accident of a game that nobody really felt was worth their money, but was absolutely worth their time. Always good to see more people talk about a game as amazing as this. ❤❤❤
How did I JUST find your channel, man? This is great shit! Subscribed!
Nah bruh, I bought the limited edition and at chapter 3 I knew thestory would be ☠️.
Better gameplay than awakening tho
@@misterlinux9290 Honestly, I'd chalk it up to the fact like 70% of the final script was cut to fit it into game format and nobody ever had an editor on standby for the transition to what's basically three fantasy books into a game's format. So much of what I like about it comes down to how it humanizes both routes and I genuinely think, as the plethora of fanfics and analyses on Tumblr have proven, there _is_ something really special if one actually cares enough to crack it open. It's often compared to SMT V in the sense of "excellent gameplay and bad story", but SMT V's fandom discussing it beyond being a game pretty much died overnight while FE Fates still inspires a ton of fanart and fanfics to this day. It just hits different, and I speak that as somebody who was on the Tumblr side for a good chunk of time for it where I saw a TON of analysis and appreciation for it.
I think the reason why FE Fates has the negative reputation it does despite fundamentally having _so much to say_ is because Fates as a story is fundamentally hostile to its own format. I've realized that upon replaying Heirs of Fates and actually slowing down to sound the narrative out of my head; moments that make _perfect_ sense on reflection (like Soleil and Ophelia's warp stones, which were actually to be called in when they wanted to go back to Ylisse) seeming like an asspull out of nowhere, despite making objective _sense_ in the scheme of things. This extends as far as FE Fates's other plot devices like the crystal ball that reveals Garon's true form, or it glancing over a LOT of important details that only really fall into place after a deeper read (part of the reason why the story seems black and white is that it's part of why it's so _wrong_ to begin with; the fact that _any_ of this is like this when these are people's lives being played with is a sign something has gone _horribly_ wrong). Part of why it fascinated me so much is because I was always able to infer what it was _trying_ to say, but FE Fates shows such hostility to its own format as an FE narrative that it's simply just not going to click with most people, which is not aided by the sheer cacophony of other issues:
1) Each route is a game in itself, originally had to buy them individually
2) Only Conquest and Birthright have physical copies
3) Revelation is DLC
4) Lore is scattered through small asides and supports
5) Supports vary depending on which game you get and which characters you support
6) Players can only unlock supports if they use characters together in battle (ergo viability in battle can play a big part in that)
7) There's no ready indication which have lore or which are mostly humor or character skits
8) Ergo, if someone does not like a character for their initial personality or battle viability and any supports unlocked don't help dissuade that? That person often will just not even try to see if there's more because as far as they are concerned that's all the character is and will be
9) Characters can and will die not only through the player's fault but the story
10) The stories layers become way more apparent reading through All The Routes and seeing how things interconnect - that is discouraged with the whole release plan _and_ the routes themselves being obtuse and having a particular order (implicitly Birthright, Conquest, Revelations, Heirs of Fate + Before Awakening DLCs)
11) The routes vary in length and a player often needs the plot spelled out to understand what plot points matter or why certain design decisions were made and it's not "Inherently bad writing"
12) This also includes Supports, Paralogues, the 2nd Gen, and DLCs; this is a lot
13) Explanations don't always help because not everyone deep reads. I have one friend's friend who refused to do any S-Supports because the Deeprealms creeped her out, another who claimed Rhajat's only point was stalking, but also didn't do her parents' supports OR UNLOCK ANY OTHER 2ND GEN CHARACTERS TO GET MORE ABOUT HER VIA SUPPORTS
Point is, FE Fates fascinates me as much as it does because it fundamentally has a _brilliant_ story underneath the hood, but it's such a fundamental failure in terms of actually trying to communicate that narrative properly. It's why it's the polar opposite for me versus, say, Danganronpa; one is a total raucous mess that genuinely infers what it's saying for deeper layers, the other is superficially well-executed but fundamentally has nothing worth talking about (you think Fates's anime cheese is bad? Look up "Kotoko Danganronpa" on UA-cam. Curse my name later, I've suffered that garbage series for four years and all I got was this stupid mental scar from stalking). And as much as Fates's story is memed upon, well... let's just say there's a reason the fandom STILL talks about the game and AO3 has almost 10K fanfics for the continuity total. There wouldn't be something worth discussing if there wasn't something inherently interesting under the hood IMHO.
But that's just what I feel from this game. All I know for real is that the game gave me a lot more joy than most games I've played in my life, and given how controversial the game is, it's so refreshing to see a video that has nothing but enjoyment of the game, even from its own borderline self-depreciative stance on it.
@@TheAxeLord47911 One story element that made me think about what could've been is CQ Azura's plot to put Garon on the throne. I thought it's actually a good Chekhov's gun for CQ, considering what it does(n't) do in the prologue chapters, but things like it being the only justification for Corrin/Azura to invade Hoshido are unsatisfying despite being somewhat sensible. What else are they gonna do, tell the royals to stage a rebellion?
@@dutczar5436 And it's even more frustrating because when you actually take a gander at the dilemma that Corrin found himself in within Chapter 15... his reasoning actually makes _sense._
He went back to Nohr hoping to break the cycle of violence and save his family from the corruption, but - and I actually _really liked_ this part - it proves too thick for him to puncture without worrying about a sword of damocles down his throat. Corrin genuinely begins worrying if his well-intended choice was bad, and ends up learning with Azura that Garon was dead for ages and Anankos was puppeting its corpse... and between the prospect of rebelling and likely dooming the world against an entity that can no-sell the _Grim Yato_ and a family of cyclical abuse and desperately in denial, Corrin does the realpolitik thing and agrees to save Hoshido... but he doesn't excuse it or see it as "necessary," doing what he can to help people. Xander even notes in Endgame it's the one true form of justice one can hope for in this world, and it's a major reason why I love Corrin as a character. They get unfairly lambasted as "bland," but they lose half of their family in most of the routes and loses a LOT just to get where they are, plus is an archetypical "high Charisma, low Wisdom" character, which I admittedly relate to. And it's why I love Fates and even enjoy what we got, because I and many others see how it could've been amazing.
And the saddest part is... you really don't need to change almost _anything_ to have that impact that, as you said, was lacking due to the game's clunky writing. Stuff like the whole Valla thing can be explained using 'V' and 'A' as a shorthand for the kingdom of Anankos and saving the crystal ball for the boat ride with the royals, which would give them doubts about the shock of the realization that have payoff in endgame. So much of Fates story logically interconnected with inferred knowledge but it had absolutely _no_ editors on stand-by and that's such a shame, because the core of the story when one discounts the scuff is only really rivaled by FE4's core... and unlike Fates, FE4 almost certainly had an editor.
It's why we love it so much; hard to think of a game that has so much untapped depth yet seemingly sabotages itself at all points in being cohesive in that depth. It makes the act of actively engaging with what's there so fun, and I really do hope more people eventually see with a remake that expands on it that it's not really the story's problem, it's the fact the writers severely slimmed down a lot of the core juicy meat and inadvertently left a lot of fat in it.
@@dutczar5436 well actually the crystal ball Azura uses to reveal Garon's true nature could've also been shown to the royal siblings and in that same scene, Azura claims that Leo can also use it, just have Leo use it in front of his siblings.
There's such an easy solution but nah let's go send an entire country to the sword just to get one slimeball on a throne... I honestly would've preferred if Nohr just had a good reason for invasion or something like that.
Damn, looking through your channel as a new viewer, and how your previous videos performed... massive kudos for not only keeping it up, but actually doubling down on your formula. Sincerely hope it'll work out, you're clearly great at this stuff.
inb4 I abandon this format and do something completely different again
Bro Idk what is it about this video but every line is gold. It must be the “professional tone” while saying that Nohr has Guatemala’s economy, that got me, describing Iago like “you know what, F that guy” “multiple times”
Def adding this to my favorite list hahaha
21:04 you did not just fucking match the dr mario thing with the map LMFAO
Can't believe over 100k of you had interest in me lying for 40 minutes. Thank you all!
More to come later.
This vid banged, congrats.
Fates is one of my favorite games in the series, so this was always a pleasure to see for myself. The amount of affection you had for this game is clear as day.
You have mastered the art of talking with a professional tone but talking about the stupidest jokes/crap.
This vid got me from the first second so kudos to you, this is a winning formula. It was legit funny hahahaha
This was not just my fav Fates video but one of the best pieces of FE content I’ve seen between the editing, humor, etc. Thank you and please make more!
you should lie about more fire emblem games I think
only a minute in, this has been the best video i've ever seen on Fates
cringe
True. I lost it at the fucking laser sword part. lol. This is a way better story for it than the original.
Calling Felicia "Krakenburg's personality hire" has me rolling
This was an absolute treat. Also the editing was pure gold.
Man, this unironically needs to be the actual story for fates. That’d make it so much funnier. Great video. Hoping more people see this.
Grumpuh suddenly having the Marth fit for the final boss was crazy
I had a great time remembering this game completely wrong, thank you, may the algorithm take mercy on you.
not the july 1st calendar lmaooooo, the editing is godtier
Becoming gay for the sole reason of preventing kana’s existence is the funniest thing I have ever seen
There are so many jokes and good edits to see and take in it's going to take me an hour to watch this 40 minute video
Only 2:30 min in and I’m so impressed by the writing and editing. Subbed
I am also gay to ensure my worst enemy is never born
An effective tactic to be sure!
this video is a delight
I am surprised that it exists, but is a delight
I appreciate all the little editing quirks you put for sometimes exactly 1 frame and caused me to mindlessly rewind the video until I can pause at the right time
It has been said a amount in the comments here but fantastic editing.
Love the joke at 17:09 about Kaze makes great SM64 mods, it shows that you are able to make jokes for yourself and others will laugh, bc man you got me.
I can't believe they got big ass birds in this game
AND tanks???????
15:49 ...Was Azura's sprite supposed to be walking along with you and you blocked her out 'cause she's dead?
That is some dedication to the bit and I respect the hell out of you for it.
Now that you noticed that, you'll notice the several other times I had to do it
Your editing and comedic delivery is so on point man, you've won a sub from me in one video. Hope I can see more!
calling arthur homelander almost made me launch coffee from my mouth
Bruh I've been trying to succinctly explain Fire Emblem to my friends but "Rock Paper Scissors on anime graph paper" is literally Fire Emblem.
Thus is way too good a video to only have 700 likes. Algorithm comment. I hope to see more max0r videos at 0.5 the speed in the future ;)
0.5x max0r is such a perfect way to describe this loooool
I love it, max0r isn't for me personally, his videos make me feel the way I imagine a 45yr old feels when they watch "21st century humor" type shit. this is much more manageable and (to me) more fun
THIS IS SO HIGH QUALITY! Great video!
Love your editing style, keep it up!
Stop kid
Shadow wizard money gang and the turtling strat mayhem got me good,
Man, its like you and excelblem flipped the joke here.
The difference between somebody playing for the memes vs. somebody who genuinely loves the game. Both lead to comedy gold either way.
This was hilarious 😂😂😂 and well edited too. I hope you channel keep growing, you deserve more recognition for your work.
I love Grumpa. He’s my spirit animal.
This was hilarious and such high production quality!!! Thank you for the laughs and can’t wait for more!

Also was rewatching this and just noticed the park ranger hat on the faceless. lol.
This was one of the most entertaining vids I've ever seen. The editing is amazing and you kept up the fast paced comedic timing for over 40 minutes. Definitely subscribing. Im shocked that you don't have more subs. Im looking foward to more content like this from you!

Im ashamed i havent watched it sooner.

I really do hope you do the other routes, this was fucking hilarious!
Found this video and channel out of nowhere and clicked because of the thumbnail. Fantastic work, subscribed.
What the hell is this onslaught of comedic gold ?
my man. i thought you were a big creator i had just never heard of based off of the effort and editing in this vid. you've got something special here! subbed ❤️ great video, so happy to see people talking about fates lol
I've been watching this video as I progress the story and I had to withhold a scream of agony when I realized I gave up a pair of boots by sparing Shura.
I loved the part where Iago said: "You know, FUCK that Grumpuh guy, am I right?" and Iagoed all over the place.
Not gonna lie, Conquest was my first Fire Emblem game I've ever played (but was very aware of the franchise as a whole for a long time). It's been such a long time since I've played this game and the only things I do remember vividly is how randomly Keaton showed up at the theater and became my favorite character of all time, how Mercer (Corrin's name at the time) was a dragon and how I spent a long time TRYING to enhance his class to make him a bigger badder dragon but failed miserably, and Niles being bi. Everything else went poof. This video was funny and very entertaining!
First video I ever seen of this channel, instantly loved it, ya gots a new sub.
This was very well edited and enjoyable!!
This is peak content please upload more of this type of stuff.
absolutely love the insane bit of ironman azura just not having any plot relevancy

this was a very well edited, fun video! I hope you make more
The funniest part is Lilith being a digimon and My Castle being the Digital World makes more sense than any attempted explanation the game gives.
What are you talking about? It's literally the same explanation given in the game, only replace "First Dragons" and "Astral Plane" with Digimon and Digital World. Quoth the wiki's script on Chapter 3:
Corrin: What just happened?! Where…are we?
Lilith: *This is a world parallel to the one in which you live, Lord/Lady Corrin. It is known as the astral plane.*
Corrin: How were you able to get us here?
Lilith: *The First Dragons have granted us the power to inhabit this dimension. Under their protection, we are safe here. Oh! Allow me to prepare a place for you to rest…*
(A treehouse appears)
Corrin: Did… did you just use a Dragon Vein?
Lilith: *Yes. The power of the First Dragons flows freely in this realm. You should know that space and time operate differently here as well…*
Corrin: I have so much to learn… Is there anyone else here?
Lilith: No, we are alone. There’s no one left here…
Corrin: I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to invoke any bad memories.
Lilith: It’s OK, Corrin. I’m not lonely as long as I have you in my life. Now…you should get some rest.
The whole extradimensional hierarchy thing is well known in Digimon, where Digimon are less digital monsters so much as "higher-dimensional constructs interpretable by data". That... basically is what the Astral Plane is, as the First Dragons have all ascended with it as a result. Like I keep saying, all this information is here in the work, but it's often very "blink-and-you'll-miss-it", which is not often helped by how much Fates's format... struggles.
This is the only time I’ve ever wanted to play a different fire emblem game 💀
The filter chapter line is so real I remember struggling so hard with that lne
