This is the timeline where Byleth didn't inexplicably gain emotions after meeting three color coded teenagers
That’s just Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes lmao
@@toonin4gaming783Nah that game actually gave Byleth a semblance of a personality.
@@rowletthejowlet6241 It's amazing how just giving Byleth voiced lines in-story makes a world of difference.
Broke: Byleth is trapped in an infinite loop playing new saves in search of a golden route
Woke: Byleth rewrites history exactly once to kill the one person she missed.
Hubert's surprisingly fresh corpse should've been the final boss, and even then he would've retreated to fight another day, because he cannot fall here.
That sounds like a fun mod to do. Replace him with the final boss in the Blue Lions route.
In the Snow route we should also have the option to bring Rhea Edelgard's head, which Immaculate One promptly swallows. Mod idea? :D
"Edelgard even has a weakness in faith, because in this moment she is euphoric" absolutely took me out, thank you
I appreciate the upside down-ness whenever Claude is on screen. Truly it is the only way to present him
Looked for a comment referencing this, thank you 😆
I remember randomly stumbling upon the beginning of these videos and thinking I was gonna watch a cool duo maddening run
Oh boy how wrong you were
can't believe you didn't make a "caspar becomes a very friendly ghost" joke
🤣🤣🤣
Hubert: "A coffin how fascinating"
Excelblem: "surprisingly articulate corpse"
THE LAYERS OF HUMOUR HERE
I'd like to note my appreciation of how you never used the same permutation twice of the phrase "Hubert's [synonym for surprising] [synonym for talkative] [synonym for dead body]".
"By the way, did you know if a character dies, they stop showing up in cutscenes?"
Me: WTF NO
Wasn’t the Easy mode excuse that they were “just injured”?
XD
@@Ramsey276one yeah they're injured and run from the battle
@@constantdemonics they've been defeated but can't fall here, so they must make their retreat
I’ve never had a character die besides in the final battle (rip Constance) so I never knew this
Isn't it fun that it probably would've taken him less time to abuse garden stat boosters to cap all stats than to grind to 99 for a better result
Level 99 was just to flex on the haters
Is it not fun, that the speedrun community does maddening runs in 3-4 hours. And he wasted a million + 1 hours?
@@NathanWubs It's about the journey, not the destination
@@questionsayer The journey is boring, I love seeing the destination.
the fact that it was still faster (by a full 20 hours) than my maddening classic ng+ verdant wind playthrough despite the fact that you spent 15 HOURS grinding to level 99 just shows how time consuming monastery stuff is. I don't even hate it that much, it's just shockingly time consuming.
It makes sense, all maddening without cheese does is make every single "optional" monastery mechanic mandatory if it don't want to suffer.
Still have fishing nightmares.
Skip text
Maddening is so bad... at least maddening ng+ is kinda fun
36:10 "We read Claude's letter, which unfortunately was quite difficult to read because of the fact that all of the writing was upside down."
Just flip it over lol
Rumor has it Byleth is still exiting stage left to this day, pondering the suspicion of Claude’s letter, and how remarkably talented at speech craft Hubert remains post mortem.
4:01
PETRA DOES NOT CONTINUE THE LIVING!?!?!?! BRO THATS HILARIOUS
In technical sense, the students actually don't die during the first part, their lines indicate retreat rather than death, presumed they are crippled and unable or unwilling to enter battle again and only die during the timeskip. Even then, several survive, Pietra goes back to Brigid, Dorothea and Manuela go to ground with their theatre troupe, Mercedes is stuck in an arranged marriage, Bernadetta becomes a hermit, Shamir and Flayn disappear into exile. They can only truly die if they are still active after the time-skip.
You know I bet it might be a ratings thing, directly killing children and such.
"Bernadetta becomes a hermit." Always has been.
Guess he'd better so this again to get it right 👀
They literally go to a farm up-state.
Hubert dies, thankfully.
Baboushka Blade
Granny Gladius
Matriarchal Machete
Abuela Katana
I love how every shot that includes Claude is upside down.
Finally sat down to watch this and it was so much more entertaining than I expected. “It’s like if Achilles took care of his weakness by cutting off all his limbs” 💀
Relatable
Not to get too deep, but Seteth showing up only in cutscenes is kinda sad. Her students died from her careless mistakes. Edelgard refuses to let her back in. Byleth is utterly alone, and her only solace lies in Seteth, but he’s not really there. He died too.
Anyway sick run dude
"I trained them just like you wanted."
"You know I'm not actually here, right?"
"Aww crap baskets!"
Alternate title: Byleth ascends to godhood, TWICE
And all that's worth is +2 damage while not being able to make any choices.
@@pickyphysicsstudent201 I think the divine power is intended to be represented by the class’s growth rates* **
*Please disregard the fact that the growth rates are only active while Byleth is in the Enlightened One class.
**Also ignore the fact that said growth rates are less then those of the Lords, as the integration of the gameplay and story is all over the place.
@@AzureGreatheart Crap Kronya killed my dad, I need to get over there and stop her, damn this 5 move sword master class
“And because it didn’t work once she immediately gives up” YES LITERALLY WHY DID THEY DO THAT 😭😭😭
Um, what else is Byleth supposed to do? She can't break Thales shield, and even if she could, it'd be too late.
@@matthewsimon6170 when her dad just died, I feel like she’d try *everything* until she literally can’t. Like idk try different angles, different attacks, just don’t instantly accept it 💀
@@matthewsimon6170 "Watch out dad!" instead of silently attacking Kronya
She ran out of Divine Pulse uses :/
Byleth was out of Divine Pulse charges
Just want to congratulate you on making a genuinely funny commentary. I knew it would be good once Seiros stabbed the homeless man, but once Jeralt moved back in with his mother-in-law, I was hooked.
28:19 In the Forging Bonds event for Fire Emblem Heroes, they brought this up. Just a One and Done line of "You must...join Smash" before Sothis waking up from a dream.
I found this channel a week ago and I am in LOVE with your content. Its been years since a youtube algorithm actually recommended a great channel like this. Its like finding a diamond in an ocean of piss.
That might just a kidney stone

Thanks for making these! I've added them in
@@Excelblem sure thing. thanks for adding them
You can slowly hear the spite creeping into XL-Emblem’s voice as this video goes on.
Don't you just hate when you fall off cliffs and just sleep through 5 years of wars?
Also this was great. All the gas and not steering is great.
Mekkah: Can you beat Fire Emblem Three Houses with only Byleth on Maddening difficulty?
Excelblem: That's not a challenge; for me, it's a Tuesday
Mekkah did it without glitches
“Chrom classic mode is the only way to play”- Segata Sanshiro
This really is one of the Fire Emblem games of all time.
It’s my personal favorite Fire Emblem game*, but I can see why people would have mixed feelings about it.
*I haven’t had the opportunity to play that many of the games before Awakening yet, so my opinions are still likely to change, especially if FE4 gets remade.
@@AzureGreatheart fe4-5 duology is amazing
@@AzureGreatheart each game before awakening gets worse and worse as you go back, echoes is the best one by far
@@arzfan29 you trolling? fe4-5 are probably the most robust and intricate games in the series
@@kingofthejungle5338 it was obviously a type by Azure Greatheart. He clearly meant "After awakening" instead of "before awakening"
I have literally already watched this video before, how the actual fuck did i forget about the cutscene where a dragon tries to shoot down a ballistic missile in a fire emblem game
"oh, huh, weird challenge run, this should be good background noise"
*20 minutes in*
"I wish I was there to start an Anti- bounty war for Claude."
I think the funniest coincidence here is that each of the crests correspond to a tarot card. The crest of flames represents… the world. Lmao.
Wow, interesting fact. I have to recheck them.
Is that a jojo's reference???
Like legit it might actually be...
@@nevets2371 I suspect it’s a coincidence, it’s not like Nemesis or Edelgard can stop time with it. The Star is Hapi’s crest and it’s not like she has a strength in Brawling.
@@jackdias9263 like that stopped me from making her a brawler
@@arminarlelt7471 based
Babushka blade followed shortly by abuela katana killed me, that was an easy sub thank you
Just how Kaga intended
The way their deaths are all described at the beginning is just hilarious to me-
Petra did not continue the living 😔😔😔
The shaking characters during the sped up conversations are pretty hilarious!
3:58
I died at this, just like Ferdie
I laughed so hard I forgot how to Ferdinand von Respire
Spoilers for Three Hopes Support Conversations
Turns out other stand users can't see Sothis either
Well I guess Sothis and Arval don't actually physically appear ever. They probably do at the Monastery/Camp so it looks less hokey. Kinda like how you can just not summon your stand in Jojo
So it’s the same type of magical soul parasite as star platinum?
Who cares about three hopes, none of it is canon so it's irrelevant
@@lynx4082 debating what's canon to the Fodlan games is meaningless when Three Houses already has branching paths and no official true ending
@@lynx4082 Three hopes has the superior story.
I was losing my shit at the 4/20 date joke, I haven't laughed that hard in a while
2:05
"After talking to each starter Pokemon" bro this video is all gas no brakes and im here for it
I've been going through these compilations, but I had to comment on this one to say that Abuela Katana had me literally in tears
oh yeah in case you don't know, Alois can be recruited even in crimson flower route, he becomes recruitable after defeating Solon, I understand the other player's confusion because he volonteers himself to join you too late before most players realized that he's playable even if you rebel against the church, If I didnt see the article on wiki on time where it says "Shamir and Alois dialogue when you fail to recruit Alois in crimson flower route" that part saved me from failing to recruit him
As someone who actually rather LIKES Byleth as a character, this run is physically painful.
More. I require more.
31:57
Nah calculated. Every student becomes specifically 18 years old or older, and you get to choose one as a romance. Nintendo doin this for the Westerners
You mean non pedophiles
"Does not continue the living"
Felt 😭
Your content is amazing! Keep up the good work!
Oh boy it's FIRE EMBLEM: THREE HOUSES
I've never played through 3H, but just seeing all these false choices has my blood boiling. Come on, devs.
Not only that, the crimson flower and Verdant wind routes are obviously rushed and either unfinished in crimson flower's case, or rips off silver snow in Verdant wind's case. Azure moon is actually an incredibly entertaining story, and the false choices are explained by you being overruled by an unstable Dimitri, so it feels more plausible.
@@nevets2371 Calling Verdant Wind a rip off of Silver Snow is funny to me, considering Silver Snow's the biggest rip off in the series. At least (And this is a big at least) Verdant Wind has the Nemesis fight.
@@tehesprite502 I just feel the whole conflict with Those who slither in the dark fits better with Silver Snow than Verdant wind.
@@nevets2371 While technically true, I think Verdant Wind pulls it off well enough to offset that difference. Meanwhile, the story beats not directly connected to Those Who Slither are clearly intended for Claude as the tactician rather than Seteth, not to mention Silver Snow's final battle being much worse storywise than Crimson Flower's for being the same fight.
@@tehesprite502 The dev said that they made SS before VW. So VW is the ripoff. CF was made last if you couldn't tell by how unfinished it is.
06:47 OMG THE INFAMOUS R/ATHEISM QUOTE HAHAHA
"And Petra does not continue the living" made me lol
I’ve been waiting for this. Can’t wait to see how cracked this run ends up
4:55 ive had a thought like that before but i remembered, how's he supposed to get amputated if everything besides his heel is impenetrable
I love how Claude's last line is "fuck, I should've grown a spine".
The way I didnt know you could even game over at 99 turns
When you get to 91, it will start telling you how many turns are left
I discovered this in the first bandit fight by farming the stationary boss on a heal tile with arrows.
Was it worth it? Not at all, but I did it.
Funny vid. So many nice touches, including the fact that Claude is always upside down.
You'd think using all this monastery time to get some strength for Byleth would be nice, but we're not losers out here. We'd rather bang our heads against a wall a million times than waste an hour more at the monastery.
That's just being a loser with extra steps.
watched the compilation playlist like twice but still watching and commenting though ngl
This was one of my favorite things I have ever watched
That “Ferdinand von Dyer” joke hit too close. His voice actor just died a couple months ago 😢
Very interesting playthrough and you’re very hilarious man.
Those are not ICBMs at 38:57 but "Rods of God" which are a real thing devised in our world where you drop Tungsten rods frin orbit at high speeds to do massive damage, its not very strong in our world as we are limited by physics but with the use of magic which you can see in the game they accelerate the rods speed greatly which allows it to be basically mini nukes.
O
M
G
Q_q
"Its not very strong in our world" is false. For us it just takes way more energy to lift matter into orbit than it does to build a nuke.
If we had a lunar colony mine or asteroid mine though, rods from god would be common because you can attach them to spacecraft and satellites away from high gravity areas.
They aren't really a "real thing" yet though, they're purely speculative and probably not worth the cost. Due to having to guide them and them being dropped from almost-space, the cost per rod would be stupidly high, and you'd get the same destructive power from a few, much cheaper rockets.
In actuality they're more of a propaganda/fear-mongering tactic to make people afraid of "silent space missiles," because fantastical pseudo-science headlines grab more attention. In reality they would be easy to counter, and anything but silent.
How come I didn't knew this channel, this is gold.
36:26 Guess Byleth was "left" with no other option
The final boss of Cindered Shadows was originally a softlock for me... I never played Fire Emblem before Three Houses, and Cindered Shadows was already included when i decided to buy everything, so i just didn't have the mindset to beat it! I tried like 20 times, but only got it down to nearly the last HP bar before i lost...
But after playing Three Houses for about 500 hours or so, i realized that i never went back to the fight again. And even though i had forgotten every single mechanic, i did the fight in one try and with everyone alive! Goes to show just how much basic experience playing a game can help you!
This "in a nutshell" video inspired me to play the game on Maddening... with exploits and stuff that you don't need to hack the game and it's fun.
I generally love the Ashen wolves they are actually really good units sad they had to die when you get them in the main game
Swordmaster Byleth is a great user of the Viskam. Especially if you get Sword Crit +10 from getting Sword to skill rank S.
you even took into consideration Petra's quirky grasp on language! Kudos man, kudos :D
"talk to the three starter pokemon" already had me dead, and I'm not even 2 minutes into the vid. XD
Edit: haha funny axe lady goes BONK
now I wonder what pokemon they would be
What is the song at 44:14? I believe it's Apex of the world, but I would like to find the specific version being played there
Okay, the music that starts playing during the "mock battle" mission... which song is that? I swear I've heard it before, but I can't quite put my finger on it... I know it's from Fire Emblem too.
Liked and subscribed within the first minute
"Ferdinand Von Dies" lmfao
I can't believe you didn't put the Markov Chain video in here
This vid was awesome
Time to watch it all again I guess
Currently running a 1st Maddening game and I already maxed out Byleth in every weapon proficiency, nearly maxed out all statues, 3 of the statues are on their last 2500 renown point quota excluding Saint Cethlean.
My Petra has like 92 speed, Byleth has 56 defense and steamroll every map. You have no idea how long I grinded for the last few chapters
I have this theory, that 3H was supposed to be a regular Fire Emblem game, with only one starting route, and branching pathways later. I think that, since Azure Moon is the most put together, the Blue Lions would have been the focus of the story. I mean, think about it: Every BL student has some connection to the plot in the Academy Phase. Dmitri is obvious, Dedue is our Duscur guy, Ashe has that whole shebang with Lonato and Catherine, Sylvain has Miklan, Felix's dad Rodrigue is one of the very few people to show up in the Academy Phase, Ingrid, while not as obvious, is still a member of the childhood friends gang, Annette is in the same boat with Felix, having the Gilbert subplot, and Mercedes has Jeritza. I think they made most of the BL route including the TWSITD story, then realized: "Hey, these other characters shouldn't just be recruitable, everyone likes them. And people have been wanting that morally ambiguous route, right?
3:55 this is especially sad because the voice actor also died RIP😔
This is definitely the teacher of all time
Now this is the FE content true gremlins can appreciate
The beginning synopsis is so perfect
this is the most deplorable run, i love it
This was so much funnier than expected
18:55 “Felix dies like a true knight.” F#ck u man that’s brutal!😂😂😂
Because it turns back time, surely it would make more sense for Sothis' Stand Ability to be Killer Queen's Bites the Dust rather than the world, which simply stops time.
Uh why is hubert and Dorothea in the reception hall in 7:10?
Is that a bug?
Great challenge nevertheless
Characters can't die pre timeskip,, they just get too injured to fight
I tried something similar to this on hard mode
Unfortunately it wasn't as interesting to play like this as I hoped. Your commentary is well done though, so this is a pretty enjoyable video.
I was surprised that Metodey wasn't working with Edelgard in 3 hopes when siding with scarlet blaze and golden wildfire, im not sure about azure gleam yet, because I've havent started Azure Gleam yet but I will after I finish with golden wildfire
Metodey being a common thug does make sense-Three Hopes does imply with his appearances that he is kept on the Slitherer's retainer just in case; and whyever would Edelgard, who abhors senseless violence, want that guy in a position of power? Moreover, it made more sense to bring a common thug along into the basement, rather than an actual Imperial general, as Edelgard didn't actually intend to reveal her identity and ploy down there.
I never knew that this is how you actually play Fire Emblem Three Houses
Next new game I play this will be my guide :))
This has got to be one of my favourite videos... of pokemon sword and shield?
You're straight up roasting them for dying. Not even 5 minutes in and I'm already laughing my ass off
Edelgard: "What if we were the bad guys?"
"What?"
I poured 500 hours into this game, basically cleared and maxxed everything, and I know how excruciatingly annoying it is to grind in skirmishes and doing the monastery stuff. So seeing you grind Byleth to level 99 is insane and I commend you for your dedication. Also watching the cutscenes with just Byleth, Edelgard and Hubert's ghost was hilarious. Great video as always! ❤
43:30 Imagine if they Scarlet'd Jeralt and Edelgard here.
37:40 I always assumed it was actually Dimitri who faked his death and that he was just pussying out of the war. I didn't pay very much attention to the story at this point though so I won't even try to pretend I know what I'm talking about
0:12 with the context we get from pressing Start, it pretty much looks like it!
XD
"Subterranean goth girl clussy" omg
