    Why AM's Ending is More Revolutionary then You Think

    Posted: 29 Nov 2019 04:57 PM PST

    AM's ending is more revolutionary then most people give it credit for. The purpose of this post isn't to claim it's the most revolutionary or better/worse than any other ending, but to hopefully get some people to give it and Dimitri the credit they deserve.

    AM's ending has a vital change in beliefs that all other routes lack - where change should come from and instituting checks and balances.

    Dimitri doesn't believe a leader's ideals should take priority, but a leader should be beholden to what the people want. The government he creates reflects this by creating a participatory government. The game doesn't go into detail (as it doesn't for any other route), but even if you take the least liberal interpretation - that people get to voice their complaints and aren't even given an active role in the government, it's still a huge shift in thinking - that leaders are beholden to what the people want. It's the only route that puts a check on the leader's power and by giving it to the people instead whereas other routes end up giving more power to one person, unchecked, than even before.

    Obviously the people of Fodlan have less access and education than the people playing the game, so how Dimitri could realistically implement this - or even a more middle-ground and likely interpretation of his government (one where people get to actually have roles in the government via a parliament or something similar), this isn't limited to AM. Claude never explains how he'll get the people from Almyra to stop killing the people from Fodlan for fun or how Edelgard is going to dismantle the nobility and most endings include everyone maintaining their titles anyways. Byleth's rule doesn't really get detailed because Byleth is just a self-insert with no real opinions, so there's nothing to discuss. So yes, it's a critique of AM's ending, but it's not limited to AM or Dimitri. And in all honesty, the game doesn't have the time (nor probably the writing ability) to explain how any of these endings could realistically happen because you'd have to get deep into political theory to get any of these endings to come out as rose-colored as they do (and I honestly wish the game did give everyone more realistic endings, but I digress).

    LOTGH's Yang Weng-li says it better - "In reality, it's dictatorship rather than democracy that drastically advances government reforms. But I think humanity ought to avoid being united by a dictatorship. While it's true Duke Lohengramm might have that talent, what about his descendants? His heir? Rulers aren't necessarily wise through generations. He's like a miracle which could happen only once every few centuries. I don't think the entire human race should be ruled by a system where everything depends on one person's character."

    So tl;dr Dimitri's the only one who takes power away from the leader of Fodlan and hands it back to the people and is the only person at the end who isn't an absolute ruler with no way to put any checks or balances on what their future rulers want. Is that better or worse than other endings? Up to the player to decide, but it's better than it's usually given credit for.

    What kind of new mission objectives would you add to the series?

    Posted: 29 Nov 2019 08:39 AM PST

    A common wish for future FE games I've heard is the inclusion of new, more varied types of map objectives. The obvious question is, of course, what these objectives would be. I've had a few ideas that I would like to share:

    • Secure Area: A certain area of the map, usually around the gate or throne, must be conquered and held for a certain number of turns. The timer goes down by one every time an enemy phase ends and no living enemies are inside the area.

    • Rescue: An NPC is guarded by a powerful enemy. Once that enemy is defeated, you gain control of the NPC and must guide them to an exit. However, if more enemies than allies occupie the eight tiles surrounding the NPC, you loose control of them and the enemy will begin taking them back to their starting location.

    • Pillage: A resource stockpile is located somewhere on the map. You must fight your way too it and let your units pick up resources. A certain number of resources must be delivered to the exit, and units carrying ressources will be weakened, similiarly to the rescue debuffs in FE5-10. The player must decide between encumbering and weakening lots of their units in order to keep the number of trips to a minimum, or to take it slow to be at near full power, at the risk of having to fight increasingly strong reinforcements that appear over time.

    What do you think about these, and what are your ideas?

    Does (Spoilers) have some sort of hatred for humanity deep down?

    Posted: 29 Nov 2019 06:14 PM PST

    Does Rhea harbor at least to some degree, a hatred for humanity?

    I mean in general, as she does show to care about individuals.

    I feel that deep down, humanity disgusts her. And yet despite that, she's taking a chance at getting along given her modern day persona.

    However after her plans for Fodlan start to come apart at the seems in CF, dialogue in the route gave off the impression that she had the mentality of "I will give humanity one last chance to prove itself" or "Humanity is lost without our guidance."

    Another thing that gave me this vibe is that Fodlan's closed off from the world. It gives me the impression that humanity as a whole disgusts her but this little slice of the planet is fine because she has control in guiding them.

    And finally, the scene where she sets Fhirdiad ablaze. She no longer cares about making the strategic decisions to make a comeback later on and instead prioritizes retribution against Byleth and Edelgard. The idea of potentially winning the war and coming back into power isn't even a consideration for her anymore. Like at this point she'd just given up on humanity.

    TLDR: I feel like Rhea has resentment for humanity, blaming them as a species for what happened to her kind.

    This is just what I'm getting. I could be wrong, so feel free to voice your thoughts on the matter.

    Claude really occupies a weird spot in this game.

    Posted: 29 Nov 2019 06:56 PM PST

    It's primarily driven by the conflict between Edelgard and Dimitri. Claude is the dude in the bar trying to stop two drunks from brawling. You can also recruit Hilda into the Blue Lions, which is kinda messed up. No loyalty,

    I think that's why I'm a Claude guy, now that I've played all three houses. Even though I started with Edelgard. Claude is the Everyman just trying to figure out why shit's crazy.

    Do you think people know that the Goddess' name is Sothis?

    Posted: 29 Nov 2019 07:32 PM PST

    People only ever call her "The Goddess". They never mention her name. Rhea is the only one that directly calls the goddess Sothis. Maybe Rhea kept the name of the goddess a secret, and only name dropped it to Byleth to see if they would recognize it?
