Even Emmeryn never kneeled down in front of Grangel. That behaviour is extremely unrealistic for a game that's so heavily-centered on political conflicts. The way Kaga handled political quarrels in FE4 and FE5 was much better. Leaders just don't do that kind of shit. It's like a stupid poorfag power fantasy story.

Snacki acts like a child at times but she is very adult-like when it comes to her manners and views of politics. It was an extremely OOC moment for her to kneel down like that, especially in front of Tibarn.

They did it to themselves.

That's one of the biggest reasons why they lost and got wiped out, in addition to illness.

>>379356774
And nobody had to bend down and apologize for commiting "wrongful" political actions. Countries fight for power and resources. The strong lives and the weak either dies off or becomes assimilated into the dominant culture. That's how it works. PoR's story reeks of a power fantasy story of the weak.

How did the Tellius games kill the series? They just didn't sell very well. Its understandable in America, since the Gamecube was pretty lame for all series, and RD got no advertisement and released like the day before Galaxy.

Not sure why Japan didn't take to it. I assume its because they were on home consoles and FE wasn't popular anymore on home consoles.

The reason he didn't die wasn't because he's just some mary sue who can get away with it. It's because Sanaki needed him, or someone like him, to expose Begnion corruption in the first place. CONTEXT.

>>379355931
Really, its the latter. If Ike was only the MC for one game, I doubt people would call him a Mary Sue, unless they were calling the other MCs Mary Sues too, which is fair. Maybe he'd get more accusations because he's popular but that's to be expected.

But some find it lame that Ike takes over the second game when Micaiah is seemingly supposed to be the new MC. Especially since Ike's a static character in Radiant Dawn, having already had his character development in Path of Radiance. That's pretty lame, especially because they could have developed him further. It'd be like if Jotaro took over Josuke's part halfway through.
>>
>>379357173
Countries endlessly fight, especially when they don't fully accept one another. It is inappropriate for an Empress to lower herself in front of a weaker leader of another nation regardless. She can provide reparation and aid instead. That's how real political leaders handle stuff. The way PoR did it was unrealistic and feels like some shitty SJW fanfiction.

>>379357378
Elincia is his employer. If she wants anything she can ask Elincia. She doesn't have to tolerate Ike's tantrums to get his service. Again, unrealistic way to portray things. The story incorporates elements of royalty and the upperclass but doesn't let them act the part unless it's to be evil and corrupted.

>>379357196

That's one of the biggest reasons why they lost and got wiped out, in addition to illness.

I've got some issues with that.

They communicated with the nations and cultures within their reach, with trade routes stretching across the continent(s). Slight difference between the Americas and Eurasia though, there was a massive arc of relatively civilized nations stretching from Spain to Japan, all trading and exchanging ideas. And crops/domesticated animals for that matter. Venture too far out of that range, out of that circle of correspondence, and you start running into all kinds of relatively primitive groups. An equivalent network didn't exist, couldn't exist, in the Americas. The Geography didn't allow for it. And wouldn't you know it, the moment they could get their hands on better tools and ideas, they adopted them, brought them into use.

Sharing and communal support? I don't know what kind of eco-freak pamphlet you've been getting your historical information from, but the Native Americans weren't all just dancing around singing songs and doing arts and crafts until Columbus rolled into town. The Aztecs and their whole group didn't. Most North American natives surely didn't. The Inuit certainly weren't pacifist. The Incans had a sort of top-down approach to running their empire, but that's hardly "sharing and communal support".

I'm not saying it's a valid criticism to call the game bad

>>
>>379358789
I'd say that was more PoR and RD having mediocre(not awful) sales, and SHADOW DRAGON selling like utter trash.

then 12 wasn't released outside of japan and sold like shit there too.

PoR actually sold relatively well, and was one of the higher selling GCN titles of 2005(of course, higher selling of a console at the end of its lifecycle, but...)
>>
>>379358241
The Natives were naive enough to help the Europeans out when they arrived in the "New World". That's not very smart at all. They are not political prepared to deal with any other groups outside of aboriginal people like themselves. Also they didn't get a "bad" deal. They discovered alcohol from trading with the Europeans and start indulging in that kind of shit. They didn't know how to deal with foreigners properly. For fuck's sake they weren't even completely aware and couldn't even prevent foreigners to sail to their own land. They were naive, underdeveloped, and weak, and in addition to catching illnesses which were originally their fault anyways, they lost.

The Europeans brought along a lot of cool stuff like guns and horses, and some Europeans worked very hard to help native americans, such as bartolomeo de las casas. The natives couldn't really be blamed for not knowing how bad the Europeans would eventually turn out to be, and by the time they did, it was too late.

But hey, if you wanna go for the "might makes right" stuff, "whoever wins defines justice," and all that, according to you guys the SJWs run everything. If they're able to keep the boot on your society or culture, there must be something to their philosophy :^)

>>379357757
Nier has pretty good writing, but the MC isn't necessarily in the wrong. Drakengard 2 has a MC who is wrong for about 98% of the game and doesn't even fucking realize it because he's a dumb cunt. That being said, your grasp on what makes a Mary Sue is so off that you'd probably consider Kaine from Nier a Mary Sue, so the complexity of those games is probably wasted on you.

Protip: not every character who's right frequently is a Mary Sue. Being right 100% of the time is ONE requirement, however there is a distinction that the Mary Sue's judgement is not earned through the context of character building/background in a believable sense, but through the author saying "just because."

Ike lacks the tactical knowledge, initial appeal to every race, and many other factors which balance out how good he is in battle. He earns a reputation and is lauded as a hero because he ends a war, not because the game starts and he gets an applied attribute of "Oh hey by the way, Ike is super cool so you should listen to him."

All I'm saying is: the player character being right a lot of the time is pretty typical and isn't representative of them being a Mary Sue, because a Mary Sue is much more than just being right. There are plenty of games where the MC isn't right, but they aren't the norm (as it's usually a part of a plot twist when it's employed).

People like the character design of Tellius games but don't really bother playing them? Also most of the sales of the more successful FE titles (read: nuFE) belongs to casuals and they are less autistic about online voting than oldfags who wants to make their older games relevant.

>>379359207
Japs definitely did not like the Tellius games. The themes are not as attractive to them and the consoles they were on as well as the gameplay was not stimulating to them. Japs love Marth's games, the GBA games, and nuFE.

>>379359450
They've always lived in their own bubble, even now. They've always been within their own community which is why they are so bad at dealing with other people. They can try to get on the European's good side but they should know that these "snazzy gears" can be dangerous, and stronger people will take advantage of weaker people.

>>379359457
That's just how it works. The winner tells the final tale and defines how things work. I'm only saying the story of PoR smells like a power fantasy fanfiction written by the weak. My main problem with it is again, incorporating elements such as the royalty and the rich and powerful, but they are not allowed to act appropriate to their status (demands respect from people especially those lower and weaker than them, behave more ruly and restrained, possessing less sympathy as a result of their status) unless they're being evil/corrupted or acting against the main character.

>>379359536
The only "tactical knowledge" he lacks is resource management and even that is rarely reflected in the story. He doesn't really get any real flaws, and the only one he has, his naivety, is actually a good virtue as he is deemed an egalitarian and non-racist by other races.

That's still a lack of knowledge on his part, and it's a flaw covered by entirely different characters. He literally requires Soren to run sorties because his battlefield judgement sucks. This reason alone is one thing that disqualifies him as a Mary Sue. If you want a REAL Mary Sue, look at Adam Malkovich in Other M.

Xenophobia and nationalism are pretty natural and they do help a country stay strong or at least not become absolute cuckholds. And Japs didn't like Birthright either despite that game being extremely in-your-face about Nippon superiority so your point is moot.

Go ahead and live in your own bubble of "muh old games are flawless even if they lack many basic QoL features and have bland or even down right offensively cheap/shit maps despite appealing to almost no one and almost killed the franchise". Look, I don't like a lot of things about nuFE, most notably Awakening, Birthright, and Revelation but you can't just pretend they are absolute shit with no redeeming qualities and should have never sold that well and doesn't deserve any merit.

He isn't as big of a Mary Sue as Ephraim but then again Ephraim is the proto-nuFE Lord/MU anyways. I do like Soren as a character so him being so closely associated with Ike troubles me honestly.

I played conquest lunatic with resets untill the chapter with the urns (I think it's chapter 12), where you have to get to the endline in 10 turns.
I dropped it for no reasons months ago and now I want to restart, however I discovered the pleasure of playing FE without resets in the meanwhile, is lunatic conquest without resets playable or I'm just going to suffer too much trying to get past THAT chapter? Also I would be playing completely blind from ch 12 onwards.

This is literally every noble in Fire Emblem. What, you want characters to be written like Peri?

Pieri doesn't even act like a noble. She just acts like a stereotypical crazy rich person. That's literally my problem with that kind of problem, dumbo.

And the people who hate him are always wrong, even Micaiah who has a very legitimate reason to dislike him as a citizen of Daein. He was literally the only one who could slay the final boss in a game that isn't supposed to be his. Also he chose to be a merc and stay adventurous.

Micaiah didn't really have a good reason in the first place, she only disliked Ike due to Sothe never shutting the fuck up about him while she's working her ass off to save her country.

It makes her human to not like him, but it doesn't make it a "very legitimate" reason to not like him.

By that I mean a better UI and a better game speed to make gameplay more fluid and intuitive. And for casuals stuff like freeform shipping and support conversations draw more sales to the games. The latter does come with downsides that ruin parts of the games as well but they can always be skipped for people who don't care/like it, which is why many oldfags like Conquest. You can't skip shitty Gaiden/Genealogy-style maps and you can't make the game faster unless you're playing on an emulator. You also don't have to look up a guide to secure obscure objectives which ease casuals into playing. It's not hard to figure out, anon.

My issue with Tellius is how extremely bad antagonists are written. They are either stereotypical noble thugs or characters that are eye painfully forced into antagonization.

Radiant Dawn literally has Begnion has a me vs the world mentality throughout the entire game, even long after their own ruler was fighting on the cause of unity and staying alive.

I tried experimenting in FE4 to get Arthur to have a sword father like Holyn or Beowulf but he just turns out garbage.
>>
>>379360769
It's pretty amazing because literally the opposite happened when Fates came out.

With Birthright and Conquest instead of Japan going full nationalism, they fucking loved Nohr. Meanwhile the Western fanbase kept going NOHR DINDU NUFFIN THEY WUZ GOOD BOIS, THEM FILTHY JAPS ARE TO BLAME.

Somehow, the Muricans managed to be more nationalistic than the Japanese, which in itself is pretty amazing considering how rabid the Japanese can be with nationalism.
>>
>>379361782
>by putting ship pandering shit and stuff that didnt save what the game was about back before that shit

I've never understood this, with Awakening it was literally a feature taken from FE4 since the series was supposed to end, they nabbed a bunch of features from different games and mashed them together to make Awakening. Ike's dick gets sucked way more than Robin's does, and you can kill Tharja easily or bench her.

Now Fats was designed with pandering in mind, with 80% of the dialogue being Corrin-worship plus incest fetishes and maids and face-rubbing.

>>379354425
Yeah, forget what they called the abilities, but her pre-emptive attack + always critting when at 25% health was seriously broken. I had her solo most of the later maps.

Astrid was similarly OP if you babysat her through promotion despite getting her so late in the game. Huge attack range with the bow double attack + almost always crit both attacks, huge movement with the mount, etc. Was also a one-person wrecking crew.

It's natural for a Daein citizen to hate someone who ruined their country. Also Micaiah's unintentional hypocrisy makes her not a flawless character, which is more human.

>>379364216
People shouldn't always look at war from the past from a humanitarian perspective. Of course many died or was damaged, but that's just how it is. Realistically some of the characters' actions in PoR makes no sense especially considering their status and rank. I'm not talking about how morality or humanitarian aspects I'm talking about how war/international conflicts work in the past. Everything is about humanitarian reasons nowadays but it wasn't like that in the old days. If you write a war story like that it'll be no different from a writing of a 10 year-old.

And yes, as a whole country, their worth and value IS defined by their consumption and victory.

Actually that's the kicker here. Snacki in POR has been doing everything that the nobility hates, and since she's a child she basically gets a free pass on stupid shit. She used that to take advantage of the Herons and Ike, basically burying all the offenses her empire committed over some minor shoe licking.

This is simply due to the passing of time. The waifufags of old had many more years to devote to their waifus, through good and bad. Don't think for a moment that when the kids who started with Awakening and Fates get to the same age as the Tellius babies that they won't be just as rabid.

I mean if you wanna look at other industry examples, just look at Naruto and Bleach. Same shit there, except naturally FE wasn't as big so the effect is smaller, but there's a reason why people sperged out harder about Sakura/Hinata/Rukia/Orihime than the waifus of newer series by orders of magnitudes despite their shallow character and bad writing.

Some of the girls suck. Mia and especially Ilyana are trash. Nephenee, with Brom, gives us a peasant perspective. Their supports say so much about the world and the events unfolding. Because of this, her personal opinions on matters are often depicted. Titania has excellent relationships with the other mercs. And she has a past as a knight and with Greil that defines her. But again, I agree that Mia and Ilyana are overrated.
