Three Houses Discussion Despite the criticism it was shown in the community and how rushed it was, Crimson Flower, to me, is one of the most satisfying and "feel good" routes I've ever played in Three Houses.

A lot would say that this is the worst path to choose because it is where you sided with the enemy and planned to go against the Church. But when I look at Fodlan, it's not a peaceful place to stay nor to live with all the small wars, conflicts, and gray morality it represents. It feels nice to be a "villain" for once and see this to the end.

While I understand this route has issues, it really shows how on point the military strength the Adrestian Empire is and how I see Edelgard in a different light now that she has Byleth on her side. And while I do see the point of having to ally with TWSITD for her war, she had no choice but to have them as a temporary ally so that later on they can be dealt with once the Church has been destroyed.

I also like how angry, confused, and sad the opposing force were when their former students/friends/classmates/relatives joined the Empire. While Gronder Field in War Time (Blood of the Eagle and Lion) feels like an emotional event of having to kill your former students for the path they have chosen, the journey from the Bridge of Myrrdin to Fhirdiad sits well for me as they see the "betrayal" as they allied themselves with a faction that started the 5-year war. The game intentionally tells the player through the cast of characters that the path you choose is wrong and wants you to feel bad about it but I personally don't care and gave them "something to believe in" with no hesitation instead. Which oddly felt...good.

I understand how "out of character" the recruited students were when facing against their former friends, but they have their reasons on why they did it. They just don't expand more and I wish they did- until I realized that they are at war. They don't have the luxury nor the time to be explaining every bits and pieces of their reasons but to fight until one of them falls to the ground.

I never felt so satisfied before ever since Star Wars Revenge of the Sith and Black Ops Cold War in Ashes to Ashes ending. I'm glad Three Houses gives you paths to choose from. As Sothis mentioned, Byleth has the power to choose a path that is their own. And whatever path they chose will lead Fodlan into a bright and new future. Crimson Flower is one of them and that path is just as satisfying as the rest but this one hits different for me and I couldn't be more happier choosing this one.

I can't wait to see his dynamic with Orchel and the rest of her team. Hopefully he will get more supports.

Fortune’s Weave General Spoiler Prototype I (The Fortune's Weave DLC Sword) is not a Prototype for the weapon you would think... Spoiler

Prototype I is not a proto Sword of the Creator.

It's the Prototype for the Dark Creator Sword - the replica used by Zombie Nemesis at the end of Verdant Wind.

Seems TWSITD already had plans to weaponize Zombie Nemesis somehow if his sword already had a working prototype by Imperial Year 400~ (in FW, all the DLC prototype Hero Relic weapons were smuggled out by an Agarthan defector).

Fortune’s Weave Discussion The biggest difference between Theodora and Edelgard

226 Upvotes

Theodora is WAY better at naming things than Edelgard.

If Edelgard had to find a clan name for the Games, she would have ended up with something like "Black Eagle Heroic Force" and spectactors would have mocked them all the way to the finals

Meanwhile Megaira's Beacon is a thoughtful, powerful name that Theodora found while half-asleep on a boat. The difference is huge !

They both can't draw for shit tho.

Three Houses Discussion Character Death cries that made you flinch/impressed you?

14 Upvotes

I was doing Anna's paralogue last night and another wave of reinforcement just suddenly appeared and unfortunately my Constance was sniped by those awful bowknights. It was the first time I got her killed in any of my playthroughs.

I was prepared for her death cry but Goddamn! That made me flinch me abit, you'd think someone stabbed her voice actress in the booth, by how real that sounded.

i rarely get any of my units killed so I was wondering which character death cry surprised/impressed you in your playthrough?

Three Houses Discussion Coming from playing Fortune's Weave, how does recruiting work again in Three houses?

• Upvotes

I'm replaying 3 houses and doing Dimitri's house, but I absolutely want to recruit potential fliers I remember being great like Petra, Hilda, Leone and I liked Bernedetta so much so I'm going to make her my designated archer over Ashe (who I think sucks as an archer for Dimitri's route?).

How does recruiting work again? I need to have their support a certain level which you do by just spamming gifts and eating meals? I forget if you can only give one gift a week per character like in FW or if they like certain gifts. Also, isn't there a tea time which is a good way to raise support? I just did a meal time for my first free time (did the introductory quest) and I didn't gain any support between Hilda and Bernedetta who I ate the meal with which I know you do gain support with in FW eating meals so I guess its different?

I just completely forgot how recruiting and raising support works in three houses. I just played a 160+ hour playthrough of FW so I guess I completely forgot how recruiting works in 3 houses. I think I read you need to raise your axe levels with Hilda to recruit her and your riding skill with Petra? Is it the protagonist that needs these skills or these characters in particular?
