Sorry this is completely random but Fates could've gone a long way towards fixing the fuckedupedness of Corrin x Hoshidan Royals S-Supports by making the very simple, tiny change of having the revelation (ha) that they don't actually have the same father moved to their respective A-Supports... Like I would have still not really agreed with the concept but honestly that would make so much difference lmao... Like ok you find out you're not biological siblings and then you potentially HAVE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT TIME between unlocking the next support for your relationship to change with this person and to start seeing them in a different way... It's not a lot better, but obviously devs were determined not to break the rule of the player character being able to marry ANYONE (so long as you're being heterosexual of course, incest is fine but god FORBID you be gay with anyone except our few pre selected Queer Characters™)

#LIKE THE INFORMATION ONLY DROPS *IN* THE S-SUPPORTS IIRC????#THE PREMISE IS LITERALLY I FELL IN LOVE WITH MY SIBLING SO MY BIG BROTHER TOLD ME WE'RE NOT ACTUALLY SIBLINGS #unless it's Ryoma himself which is slightly less gross on his end BUT HELLO WHY DID YOU NOT TELL CORRIN THIS EARLIER #i mean thats a very important question IN GENERAL learning he was just sitting on that information REALLY changed my perception of him #but disregarding the manipulative lying by omission #IF YOU FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE A SHOT WITH YOUR FUCKING STEPSIBLING MAYBE TELL THEM UR NOT RELATED???#LIKE... AS SOON AS U TWO START GETTING CLOSE???#sorry I think about this a lot on and off in the 10 years since this game released #draco speaks #groundbreaking take: someone says Fates' writing is bad in 2024; point never been made before /s #but yeah the point of the post was just it occurred to me a VERY SMALL CHANGE would have made it a lot better imo #whats funny is that objectively thinking about my types ad how much I like the characters at least some of the royal siblings #would've been EXTREMELY appealing and on the table as romance options for me if my fucking self insert wasn't their sibling lmao #like I PERSONALLY would probably have fallen for Takumi at least if I didn't see him asa brother instead #kinda funny how the player character can influence you like that even in f.e. where you don't *really* play as them much
