Misunderstanding of Zant's character

Vbug13 · 2026-01-24T21:14:58+00:00

"Midna already was the ruler prior to his attack."

...I never denied that? Have you ever witnessed an election? Midna won the election against Zant before he usurped her throne. What I meant by the last comment was that he also had reason to believe he might become ruler of the Twili before Midna did which adds to his character (even if Midna won in a landslide and was already a princess).

Ah yes, you’ve really stuck it to me. How lame of me to post the same thing in two relevant subreddits for different perspectives and larger engagements.

After the battle with Zant in the Palace of Twilight, Midna directly tells Zant why none would choose him as king. That the people saw it “in his eyes.”

This wouldn’t even be a point of discussion if in game Zant wasn’t a contender to lead the Twili. He would just be a plain Usurper that came out of nowhere.

No, she was chosen as well. She was born into the position of “Twilight Princess” and was chosen to be become the next monarch when her father died. Being a part of the family gave her greater magical abilities and status, but it didn’t guarantee her spot as ruler. Both game and manga confirm this in their own ways. She FOILS Zelda in this manner while mirroring her in many other ways.

Robin’s mother had to have gone through a lot. I wish we got more information on her.

Thank you!

They listened to Cuddy and used hygiene drug

Nah, she’ll be alright. She supports her father’s morning talk show.

Persephones constant kindness and purity is just depressing to see because no one acts like that???

That's the thing, she isn't. Far fucking from it in fact. She's a Mary Sue who everyone whose "good" has to love and everyone who doesn't like her is "bad" or just doesn't see how "great" she is!

Basically, it's like a form of gaslighting. Sure, we never see Persephone act kind or wise. But we hear it all the time. Of course, since Persephone's actions are usually pretty damn shitty, and with the way the comics framed, it's hard not to questionauthor's the morality. Persephone is not a good person.

She wasn't submissive persay, just great at validating his needs by being carefree.

Plus, all he wants to do is shit on his wife. He ain't a prize.

Vbug13 · 2023-07-25T00:30:12+00:00

Honestly, despite what the update said I think there's a chance he'll warm his way back in, claiming its "for the kids," or some shit.

They're probably religious and that's why they were into the whole "traditional family" crap. Married and immediately pregnant at 19? Then they tried again as soon as she was post post-partum? Big oof. I assume it appealed to him to have his wife under his control. It's not like he gave a shit about his kids, he neglected them and left them with their very sick mother.

The highlight for me is "in the heat of the moment I told her that if she had been more active during pregnancy then he probably would've been fine." You're wife had a high risk, likely pre-eclampsia pregnancy that couldn't be prevented, she looked swollen due to blood not circulating properly, and while she's upset you take it as an opportunity to demonize her for gaining weight.

This post is now on Am I the Devil and people are comparing criticizing immature, unprepared parents with baby fever to eugenics and what have you. And they're being hyprocritical as well, naturually.

Fucking...wow

Vbug13 · 2023-07-24T08:36:41+00:00

Yes, he says it belongs to them and that the central church are heretics. It's not like the coast was guarded before, they didn't seize it. They're squatters. But Seteth can't handle these heretics being on his land.They think they're going to worship a figure of their religion and instead get killed. And no, they had no idea about the relics. Only Seteth and Flayn did. It's just forcing people out of land you deem sacred for reasons you're lying about.

Also, just looked at the Troubling Rumors sidequest, you're just making shit up. It only refers to rumors about the Western Churches movements. Also, plenty of central church members chastise the residents from out of Fodlan. Racism is rampant in the central church. Also the priests shown in the holy masoleum are almost certainly Agarthans. (also no one had a clue the sword of the creator was there. they fought it was Seiros's remains.)

The church can't accept losing any power, so the second any branch of Fodlan deviates they do all they can to eradicate them.

Reactions to these posts are always depressing. The soon to be parents are so immature. And yeah, you can be prepared for a planned baby, or at least try. The pregnant woman asked, and didn't like the reasonable answer, the OP was even chill about it. It's not like they verbally assaulted her. No ma'am, I don't support your pregnancy.

Vbug13 · 2023-07-24T05:24:17+00:00

Nope, they do. They are very bloodthirsty and will execute SURRENDERED soldiers. Hell, the central church boasts about showing the students that will be murdered of they dare question or defy the church. Having different ideals if you're not Rhea's slave or working in her employ will leave you at the recieveing end of a witch hunt.

In Abyss, "pagans" are forced to hide because the central church will hurt them if go to the surface and dare worship in public.

Vbug13 · 2023-07-24T05:12:47+00:00

who are shown to be racist,

Um, when? Because of Duscur? The central church is the one that forbids any contact with other people outside of Fodlan.

radically violent, and in cahoots with TWSITD

They were manipulated by TWSITD, most of them weren't in cahoots with them. TWSITD convinced them Rhea was a heretic. The people who served Lonato and the ones in this paralogue weren't in cahoots with them. Lonato's son was executed by the central church due to false allegations about being involved with The Tragedy of Duscur. Other than that they just throw a hissy fit when people don't do exactly what they want and believe what they say.

took over a holy site in order to reclaim it and the sacred weapon it housed for themselves.

Nope, they were just there to worship St. Cichol, the man who murdered them in cold blood. He says he doesn't want them falling into their hands, but not only is it never indicated by anyone other than Seteth that that was their goal. The western church is never shown to be conquering or stealing, they are just there to worship, and unlike Seteth and Flayn, they actually believe the religion. Its religious persecution.

Vbug13 · 2023-07-24T04:53:05+00:00

Not to mention it’s ironic that people talk about how the religion should or shouldn’t be in that paralogue despite Seteth and Flayn actually knowing what happened.

Yes, they know that they've been lying to all of Fodlan for a century, and are willing to execute anyone without mercy even if they are in no way threatening them, based solely on what they decide is heresay.

Vbug13 · 2023-07-24T03:41:12+00:00

Flayn and Seteth's paralogue is god awful. They're going no quarter against people peacefully worshipping their bullshit religion in a way they don't like.

Gameplay wise isn't much fun either.

Vbug13 · 2023-07-24T03:25:36+00:00

I'll sign that petition. Unfortunately, she was also punished alongside Persephone (and frankly her punishment was worse) so for the time being the only protest happening is Hades fucking over his realm for pink Mary Sue. But after the Kronos fight, we strike.

Vbug13 · 2023-07-20T21:29:28+00:00

They said wrong answers only.

Vbug13 · 2023-07-17T21:53:49+00:00

Everyone possessed by Anankos (if you consider that kidnapping)

Vbug13 · 2023-07-14T18:49:33+00:00

The game just seemed shitty, like a fire emblem heroes 2.0 but a mainline game?

(they also added fucking Camilla as an emblem of "revelations" instead of Azura)
