#faron playthrough

ok so as i cried about the other day, the elise thing was like the most devastating thing ever and no single event could really get much worse than that, but the xander thing was absolutely heartwrenching too and the two together are just like wh y ;_________;

“end of all” was a rly cool song

i spent wayyy too long on the first turn of endgame before even moving any units trying to decide how i wanted to approach the battle for something i beat in two turns and probably could have managed in one if i’d been a bit more daring.

on that note this game really seems to like giving you criticals / having you activate dragon fang against bosses? bc i think it’s happened like, every single time.

i 100% saw the azura thing coming but still. whyy ;___________;

i rly need to play the other paths asap bc like. nothing was explained (corrin: “wtf was that about???? oh well :) ”)

i realize the final scenes of the game take place a while after the final battle but everyone celebrating and stuff was just like. guys. i’m not ready for this let me grieve a while longer.

the paired endings were... kind of unimpressive. it bothered me that they sort of still did the “guy does a thing, girl supports him” format, like in awakening i figured it was because the mothers got more focus with the children so the fathers got more focus with the endings, but in fates that’s not the case. and when the paired endings weren’t like that, they sort of felt disjointed idk. like subaki/hinoka was like “he did this. she did this,” but the two things were related and i feel like they could have easily woven them together.

scarlet’s solo ending made me smile a lot though

kana’s solo ending was like ??????? ok then

question: after the credits, why did they make you pick up to five characters? like i have no idea what they were making me pick them for. but in case you were wondering, i picked my MU faron, scarlet, hinata, takumi, and oboro since they’re my crew.
