#you can look back in my tags i predicted aelfric to the LETTER

[shepardyke]

so my thoughts on the dlc:

-the story was very predictable imo

-aelfric not only looked like a bad guy but spoke like one (*points at rhea in act one*)

-his weird infatuation of sitri screamed incel and once he started talking about the chalice I KNEW he was gonna try some shit with that to bring back mom

-the fact that they learn there’s four apostles and the four ashen wolves have those same crests and they were all too dumb to put the dots together (except yuri but we know why)

-contance started getting it right that aelfric might be traitor and she should have shouted it

-I was surprised metodey showed up, and edelgard’s interaction with him in the fight left me confused,, what did it all mean ?

-who the hell is the mysterious woman? why can we go in the wayseer’s room but not do anything .. explain

-was confused why they didn’t show us the rendezvous to the holy mausoleum but then it made sense once yuri played his trap card

-the battles were challenging which I appreciate but??? why not allow our classes to level up as well??? I felt weak as hell and I hated it lmao

-weird that we got some anecdotes on sitri but we still HARDLY know our mom... AND how they left no room for the house leaders at LEAST to comment on your lack of heartbeat...

-and rhea admitting it to you to your face before Jeralt had even died and you find his journal

-did sitri ACTUALLY get absorbed with aelfric to become the umbral beast?? cos that shit is fucked and NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT

-jeralt should have been around a LITTE

-the houses interacting was cool but I KNEW we were getting crumbs from this

-was hapi’s nickname chatterbox for yuri or byleth? cos if it was for byleth that’s cute

-upset that while predictable, the story was probably wrapped up better than the main routes .. so like good job ig intsys

I’ll have to start a new playthrough and recruit the wolves to get more lore but not surprised that i wasn’t amazed by the dlc lol and like I know I went into this very biased but I was right ..... if they can wrap up this story as good as they did they should have done it for crimson flower periodt
