    Elincia despite her limited screen time might be me favorite main character in the series besides Leif
    Her growth and change is nearly unmatched for a protagonist and the way she has to stay strong for others despite wanting to break down and cry, the strength and resolve she shows is truly great and I love her

    Act 2 is so crazy good for how short it is. The story is so intriguing look into populace reactions post war and the strains of a rebuild period which is a breeding group for spiritual revaluation to spread. But how revolts can be used politically. It calls upon a reflection of last act, where we played what we thought was light hearted rebels. But they had a lot of miraculous help. The black knight. The queen of the wolf people. Barely through the game, but so much questions and self reflection.
    All wrapped together with 3 good chapters, only 2 bad ones.
    What an amazing act, for this amazing game

    Bro I forgot how much everyone in Crimea hated Elincia for just existing. Seeing her endure so much of unnecessary and unreasonable hatred makes he by far one of my favorite protagonists in the series.
    Also I do love that point you made of Lucia having a choice to literally just walk away from Ludveck. It reminded me so much of Engage when Diamant and Alear let Ivy run away after she gets defeated, despite her being surrounded. Idk what it is with Fire Emblem characters and common sense lmao.
    Can't wait for you to play part 3!

      It is a problem with how so many FE enemies in the past two games are no longer one-off villains meant to get killed. They are important characters who have to retreat regardless of how illogical it is for them to.

  • @Zastralord
    @Zastralord 5 месяцев назад +6

    I think given that act 2 is all about the staus of Crimea after the previous war it makes sense to show it from multiple different perspectives. I can understand this part of the game not being everyones cup of tea but I like it for how experimental and creatively designed it is.

  • @torashiki5646
    @torashiki5646 5 месяцев назад +6

    To be fair, people like Elincia's Gambit *because* it presents you with a choice. You can minmax the entire thing and get a lot of experience and carefully dismantle the map and steal as much as you can while simply enjoying the map... or you can end the map as fast as you can and miss on many of those.

    • @Zastralord
      @Zastralord 5 месяцев назад +3

      Yeah I think this has become an often overlooked aspect of the map lately.
      I feel similarly about the bishop map in PoR which sometimes gets criticised for being able to be cleared instantly by attacking the boss with siege tomes when that also means losing out on the treasure.

    I think the reason why Radiant Dawn is my favorite FE game is because of how limited some units availability is, it's constantly switching things up, but it's also always making sure you have the tools to deal with something up ahead. If your Dawn Brigade is weak because you used primarily Sothe? Boom have the Black Knight. If you have a civil war to deal with, boom have a sleepy man on a lizard.
    I haven't played this game since becoming a lesbian and I was already obsessed with Nephenee for being a very exclusive class in my eyes (a footsolider unit with lances that isn't a knight) so I can't imagine how obsessed with her I'm going to be on my next playthrough
    Loving this series, super excited to see what you think of part 3, it's probably the best part, I like them all but just, objectively it has the most stuff and the best stuff

    You make such good points, and am really looking forward to seeing what you think about Part 3, and especially about the best story-arc ever gifted to mankind due to how devoid of filler it is: the one, the only... Part 4😎
    Not gonna lie, I am a massive shifting POV junkie, but I have to say that Part 2 is not so much fun on replays. Still leagues above the hellhole that is Part 4, though, because at least I get me ze juicy character interactions that the rest of the game basically lacks.

    I feel like chapter 1 of act 2 is there mostly to go “Beginon Bad” which apparently needs reinforcing despite all the war crimes from act 1.
    “See; they’re mean to Crimea too - those folks you like. Clearly they’re the baddies.”
    Also gives us a chance to see that despite the Apostles best efforts slaving is still ongoing in her territory.

    • @Shark3143
      @Shark3143  5 месяцев назад +3

      Sure, that makes sense! There's a lot of setup to cement Begnion as the overall badguy of FE10, I mostly commented on it being out of place because part 2 feels a little strained in terms of screentime, I suppose, haha

    • @ZeRedSpy
      @ZeRedSpy 5 месяцев назад +2

      Oh absolutely; RD feels like it should have been two games that were kinda smashed into each other. If it was on a handheld I feel like it would have been a split game; one half following Crimea and one half following Daein.
      Speaking of the game we have though, not the game that could have been, Radiant Dawn's early chapters are doing a lot of set-up and heavy lifting. As you mentioned in the video; Path of Radiance ended on a high note. The war is won, racism is solved, and the god of chaos is safely locked away. And thats a problem if you want to make a sequel.
      As a result Radiant Dawn actually covers some fairly interesting themes. Sure most of the early villains we meet in the game are comically evil; but the background events are fairly complex. Racism wasn't solved; much like the South in post Civil War America. Sure the war is over and Galia even helped Crimea rebuild...but that doesn't erase centuries of suspicion and cultural conflict overnight. Daein's been defeated; but Ike literally murdered half the young men in the country by himself. Its a lot like post WW2 Germany except if someone gave the whole damn thing to Russia.
      In Arc 2 we see that while Queen Elincia managed to reclaim her throne she doesn't have the respect of the nobility. Crimea was occupied by Daein for a decent period of time. The Daein army likely murdered most of the nobility who would be sympathetic to her; the remaining nobles are the ones who kept their heads down. Plus, she's illegitimate. Sure she's got the Empire's backing and Galia's backing but that just makes her a puppet in their eyes. They also resent the idea that Ike was made a Lord despite his lowly birth. Sure; Elincia should have the confidence of the common folks but at the same time people often act against their own self-interest. Elincia's respect for her allies and desire to avoid war can be painted as weaknesses by agitators; and if you've ever played Crusader Kings you should know that the most dangerous people to your rule are your own scheming nobility.
      Just a thought. There's a lot of cartoon logic in the main story; but its actually pretty reasonable if you look at the events in the background.

    Having so many units be game over units is one of my guilty pleasures with this game, due to how important it makes them. Not many others feel like I do, but it's still way too funny. XD

  • @ChefGuevara267
    @ChefGuevara267 2 месяца назад +1

    Letting units die makes my neck itch, hurts my soul. I do think often on part 2’s place in the story. Watching this video I am only now registering how the Lucia map is made entirely pointless the moment it ends. One has to wonder if it wouldn’t have been better to just make Elincia more of a player in part 3, rather than relegating her presence to two chapters; it’s not like ike gets any development during his chapters…

  • @Illusion517

    @GreatAether58 5 месяцев назад +1

    I think Part 2 is meant to be more as an overall Crimean Royalty/Knights storyline and not specifically just Elincia's story. That's why you shuffle through so many different groups in Part 2. Also you might regret letting Marcia die later on. She's not the best unit in RD, definitely got nerfed from PoR. But still very helpful to have her trained later on, especially for a certain Part 4 map. Oh and you should have sent the Speedwing from 2-3 to the Convoy so Haar could use it before 2-E. He sometimes has doubling issues in 2-E but I believe 22 SPD is enough to double pretty much every enemy on the map.
