#fgydjhf its so much fun to talk about this game. i feel good

[sunshades]

Same anon who sent the ask about how Edelgard & Dimitri parallel each other so fascinatingly. God just. These two are so goddamn tragic. That fucking final cutscene. It's so great because it goes full circle with the reunion cutscene when you first see him again. He reaches for her hand. In a way she 'soars away.' It's just so heartbreaking in a way idk how to fully articulate just yet. I won't spoil the other routes final scenes for you, but I think this one is the strongest.

(this anon) also as usual, readmore to be safe

YEAAAAA GOD IVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THE CUTSCENE THESE ENTIRE 3 DAYS. now that the steam boiled down im really excited for BE and church route too... but i still don’t think they’ll get me as much as this did.

call me vanilla cuz yea BL is the classic fe story of the prince taking back his country from a ruthless emperor but like... i loved it so much??

(BL SPOILERS HERE)

the fall and then the slow aching path to recovery w the help of his friends and his father figure and his professor/friend/mentor and his -yea im gonna say it- and his LOVE INTEREST whom he thought was dead---

AND on the other side, all the love he had for patricia (or whoever that was in the years before the tragedy), and all of the love and admiration and trust he had for edelgard until literally the end (turning around to get one last look at his sister, but byleth grabs his arm. not a fan of the avatar but imo this scene wouldn’t be complete without that)

(NO MORE SPOILERS HERE)

it’s painful and it’s heartwarming and idk if its gonna be called the most boring one bc it just makes me go. yea that’s a story i’m glad was told.

also started deer yesterday and seeing the kostas cutscene made me go :O because. she takes out his dagger. she keeps it with her. that hurt me! that single detail made me really excited to play her route as well!
