there is something i really like about mcorrin's resp putting him in white and gold and corrin in mostly black, esp with how mcorrin is used as hoshirrin and fcorrin as nohrrin

alt brainstorming
anyways. can we be normal about m/f alts. if so can i suggest nel & xander for the melancholy of having had to murder your blood siblings and now having to cherish the ones oyu're left with. contrasting in that the evil dad is v dead with one and v alive with the other

got my next octopath edit, alfyn greengrass! ...so like. he's. the best party member, right? amputation + golden axe trivialize sthe early + midgame, and then concoct + dohter's gives you near permanent uptime on some amazing buffs. love him. new on left old on right.

ngl i think teh coolest thing octopath has done is like. bridge the issue ff never could figure out of balancing a flexible job system with individual character identity. having everyone dual wield jobs with one being Set is such a good idea

got my next octopath edit, primrose! her story's one of the best (along with olberic) but that's not a particularly new opinion. i will say i think dancer as base job is v weak in ch1 and then stupid broken for the entire rest of the game. anyways new on left old on right!

teeeensy bit more fatesposting. i think my issue with leo's speed is less anything with HIM and more that you only get two maps with him before Ninja Hell Map. 15 speed is kind of okay for ch14. on ch17? makes him ninja food.

you know. some levels are so much less hard than you remember them.

fire emblem conquest ch:17 - Den of Betrayal is not one of those. setting up another reset counter, hoping to keep it in the single digits. wish i had divine pulse..

ngl this banner really does have one of the sickest bride alts and pirate alts they've designed. which is wierd, becuase neither of those is the actual theme of this banner, but hey good design is good design

fatesposting. anyways i think draconic hex might be the most busted skill corrin gets? like yeah dragon fang is fun but draconic hex is just. free enfeeble. and nohrrin gets a 1-2 range attack option regardless. crazy good skill, ESP with fates slow wearing off debuffs.
