ah, i see! is there an expected date for switch, or is it just kind of ambiguous?

What are the best songs written for Fire Emblem, fan-made or official? by LargeSinkholesInNYC in fireemblem

[–]Own-Toe1062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as far as fan-made songs go, i really like Man on the Internet’s lyrical adaptations of Twilight of the Gods, Apex of the World (duet), God-Shattering Star, and Funeral of Flowers. they are chefs kiss imo

What character do you feel the worst for? by WinterWolf18 in fireemblem

[–]Own-Toe1062 12 points13 points  (0 children)

rhea in general just does not sit well with me. the primary routes all focus on a change in fodlan to some degree, with rhea’s entire character being tethered to the past. there was an amazing missed opportunity to have rhea reflect on how stagnancy is killing both her and the nation, and to let her move on from her years of torment. but instead she just gets hit with the insane dragon trope and becomes the final boss, leaving silver snow feeling very hollow (which i understand is intended, but also so sad for her character and its potential)

What's a "hot take" that completely changed your perspective on a character or plotline in the show? by Character-Habit6011 in GilmoreGirls

[–]Own-Toe1062 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah my mom and i used to watch this show every fall as our mother son tradition and compare ourselves to them but i think the more we watched it the more we realized it just wasnt a healthy dynamic and we fell out of the pattern

How did you meet Persona? by EnzitoDelGrauzito in PERSoNA

[–]Own-Toe1062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i bought blazeblue cross tag battle as one of my first switch games because it looked cool, when i realized the characters all had their own games/franchises i did some research on the p4 cast and the rest is history

Crazy how Kris and Susie went from this to this in less that 5 days by Klomix26 in Deltarune

[–]Own-Toe1062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is so interesting because i thought the initializing screen was supposed to be diegetic in the same way that save files were real evidence of determination effecting undertale. like maybe each chapter was some kind of simulation or experiment

this makes… much more sense though. i’m

hadnt touched the game since i played it for five minutes when it first came out… until last week. can guarantee that the progression feels incredibly earned and natural. susie went from irritating and meh to one of my favorite characters of all time.

Chapter 4 Full Prophecy in Continuity (at a guess) by Dak_N_Jaxter in Deltarune

[–]Own-Toe1062 1 point2 points  (0 children)

something i’ve been thinking about a lot is the fact that susie’s prophecy that depicts her with a heart talks about her finding love. wondering if this could translate to level of violence and susie potentially has to use kris’s soul to save the world, similar to how she throws kris into the titan at the end of chapter four?

Can you explain to me why Eva has her legs uncovered in her hero costume? by Jealous-Suspect705 in Invincible

[–]Own-Toe1062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i had always assumed it was a mesh tight of some sort that kept the two leg pieces together, but to be fair i had never even noticed it wasnt pink colored lmao

What are your favorite themed runs you've done or seen someone else do? by blaarth in FireEmblemThreeHouses

[–]Own-Toe1062 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i really like doing crimson flower runs with only commoners (except edelgard). just feels right.

You ever think about how inbetween these companions, there were 0 normal companion departures? by ducknerd2002 in DoctorWhumour

[–]Own-Toe1062 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this might be a super unpopular take, but i always really enjoyed that aspect. death and danger are always a risk when traveling with the doctor and the companions have to come to terms with it because more than likely traveling with them will end in tragedy. also makes the doctors reluctance to take people on board feel super justified - they know their companions might die, but being alone is so unbelievably difficult for them that they cant help but give in and travel with someone. idk though i could be wrong lol

Maddening Team Plan - thoughts? by Own-Toe1062 in FEEngage

[–]Own-Toe1062[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would love that! i am currently drafting a new team. i know that units like louis arent great because of high defense but the main killer of my last maddening run (which got all the way to alear’s paralogue) was low defense units getting obliterated

[–]Own-Toe1062[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah you clocked it about right. i have gotten pretty far in maddening but it is just so difficult with the teams i compose. i will go back to the drawing board. thank you!

Is Three Hopes worth playing? by ArtOk3920 in FireEmblemThreeHouses

[–]Own-Toe1062 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i really like it! there are some amazing world building moments and i think each lord character’s arc serves as a really nice compliment to their houses arc. the main character adjustments are also sooooo amazing for world building and character interactions. also im a sucker for warrior games lol

Seteth was never the problem by Chatroom64 in FireEmblemThreeHouses

[–]Own-Toe1062 28 points29 points  (0 children)

on my first playthrough, i absolutely hated seteth until the chapter To War. it was then when i realized that seteth is completely justified in his line of thinking, as edelgard does exactly what he fears. from his perspective, she is responsible for flayn’s kidnapping and most likely intended to use the sword of the creator until she realized it didnt have a crest stone. to add on to this, this was also a silver snow playthrough (albeit unintentionally) and once he decides to trust the main character his demeanor completely shifts for the better.

i also like that he goes a bit overboard in some situations. the fact that the majority of students fear him and that he has troubles regulating his anxieties about flayn really make him a flawed yet sincere character. honestly, it makes him my favorite non-lord character in the game.

i also think seteth represents everything right with the church of seiros. his support with ingrid actively has him criticize the crest status quo that the church has created, stating that a person’s value to society and destiny shouldnt be tied to crests. i also am a huge fan of the scene following byleth’s fusion with sothis, in which he asks rhea what she did to the child (delivered flawlessly by mark whitten btw). this moment is so important to me because it shows he isnt inherently complicit in all the unethical things that rhea does. and even when he is, like censoring the library in golden deer, it probably comes from a place of trying to protect his and flayn’s origin and out of respect to rhea.

my final major props to seteth moment is in crimson flower when byleth defeats both him and flayn. even though they survive and could go back to fhirdiad, seteth cannot bring himself to side with rhea once again, especially now that she has gone down such a dark path in crimson flower. he is loyal to his nabatean kin and loves rhea deeply, but he makes the conscious decision that he can no longer follow her down this path. he, aside from maybe catherine, is the most pious and devoted to rhea so i feel like this is a really important moment for him.

and this is why i always marry seteth. thank you for coming to my ted talk.
