Speaking of mediocre writing,what is up with characters who are meant to be Villains but actually make more sense than the heroes being a trend in media these days?

Who needs character development when you can have plot armor?

There is that.

For Persona 3,I feel that Strega has been proven right ultimately as the Hamas issue could have given us WWIII as we knew it. And for Persona 5,the Phantom Thieves literally brainwash people via Discord Sissy Hypnosis to get confessions.

They only saw issue when one of the said people killed themselves.

Maruki being one with a plan actually has it more figured out and is only giving you all your best life.

Before it was a very deliberate attempt to give the villain depth but now it seems that our heroes today are either so boring and/or morally bankrupt that even a shithead of a person like Homelander or Soldier Boy from The Boys are looked at with huge applause from the fanbase?

Like recently I have been thinking that Strega and Maruki have more or less done NOTHING Wrong and have argued with the Megaten Fanbase and content creators this cause especially looking at the story and the state of the world,what they are doing is more of a cure than whatever shit the heroes of those games are doing.

Maybe I have lost that much faith in not just humanity but life in general.

Strega were essentially operating as bitcoin assassins, I'd hardly call that nothing.

Gotta eat somehow.

If I can get paid to where I don't have to worry about my life by killing randos,I would do it in a heartbeat.

Beats working as a cashier or some other minimum wage job.

Not going to argue.

Kinda been losing it of late with how life has been lately.
It has been shit with no light at the end of the tunnel.
Cannot afford shit and life is a chore to deal with.


I mean shit. Prince Zephiel wasn't always a monster. Life fucked him over too much and for too long.

STREGA are a bunch of retarded 2nd rates and burn outs and Zephiels a scalie bitch who had plenty of support but burned those bridges because he's very likely to be brain damaged. Emo shit like that is bitch made.

I am sure Strega were orphans kidnapped to be put into experiments to awaken their Personas.

Due to the meds they take to keep their more Shadow-like Personas under control,it is not like they have much left to live. Their lives were stolen from them for no reason except to clean up some old man's mess.

And Zephiel hardly had anyone. There was Murdock and his younger sister but that is it. Everyone else close to him was just using him or wanted him dead.

Zephiel said fuck everything after having possibly the worst parents in this series.

>my parents suck!
Dude, suck it up. Sure, dad's a beta cuck and mom's a bitch but the dude also had a sister who loved him, numerous loyal (though psycho) servants and an adoring empire. He had better things to worry about than some shitty dragons or some bullshit mass suicide pact.

You underestimate how much your own parents can mold you into who you are.

Also,Zephiel didn't snap till the King made an assassination attempt via poison. Murdock nursed him to health to hold a fake funeral in which Zephiel killed his dad who wasn't expecting his dead son to come back to life.

Yeah. The one dad who resents you for being born at all and hated your guts due to being a more promising ruler in spite of all attempts to mend any broken ties only to get poisoned by your own dad?

Yeah,tell me that wouldn't fuck you up?

Yeah, sure he got his ass handed to him and got dealt some rough shir but look at what he got after that. Zephiel came out of it with loved ones who did genuinely support him and ardent loyalists and he just refused to appreciate it. He let his cuck dad fuck with him from beyond the grave and turned into a degenerate furry who wrecked the whole continent and probably didn't bathe. It's not like he wasn't given a chance to recover and get better with his loved ones. His sister is literally right there trying to snap him to his senses and his literal partner in crime was still there and genuinely Ride or Die. He had every reason to move on but instead he tries to genocide humanity for something the vast majority of the world had no involvement in. It was all a waste of his potential, if not for the world then for his own happiness and he got himself put down like a dog for it.

Shit isn't easy to get over even for the richest of motherfuckers.

Zephiel was human in the sense that he has flaws but understandable reasons why he went off the deep end.

Unfortunate he had to drag the rest of mankind down with him but the whole deal with Dragons is last I checked,it was humans who kicked them out during the Scouring. They went all "From the River to the Sea" to the Dragons and really unless we get a game on the Scouring,I will be on Zephiel's side as far as humans taking more than they should here.

Was that even Rhea?

Cause she really was hands off really in Three Houses.
Idunn was an experiment who lost her personality due to the experiments done on her.

Idunn's story is just sad and pretty ironic for Zephiel's ambitions, since the supposedly superior dragons destroyed a young girl's soul and turned her into a mindless weapon to create homunculi against humans when they started losing a war of questionable origins. Not even the humans of old could bring themselves to kill her, and it felt nice to see Idunn have a happy life in the true ending and FEH's ascended alt for her.

Yeah. I kinda was curious about a game that took place during the Scouring and see how it would be balanced since mere humans would be up against Dragons and it would and should have been a losing fight.
 
Speaking of games with the abbreviation TH, I finished one of the routes in Three Hopes.

It wasn't bad. I actually liked most of what was there, even. The exclusions are really strange, though. Byleth didn't end up playing that much of a part and the brief detour to dubstep snake people backstory before the game goes "Anyways," and the ends on a cliffhanger was an... Interesting creative choice. Dimitri was a much less interesting character when he wasn't a hulking ragebeast.

Shez was a fun character, and Byleth is a much better character when she isn't completely mute, go figure.

For a spinoff that was made to distract people between houses and engage it wasn't bad by any means, but it's a shame they didn't go a little farther with it.
