The Year is 2015.
Awakening has sold gangbusters.
Paper Mario Sticker Star has crashed and burned.
Somehow, both games are getting a sequel.
Fire Emblem Fates is that sequel. With more involved mechanics, map exclusive mechanics, removed cheese, refined difficulty, Bad Writing, and 3 whole games of content; almost double the number of total chapters, Fates is-
Broadly considered one of the most widely disliked FE games.
For reasons that are not unwarranted, yes, but come along with me and you'll understand that this game has more to offer to a dedicated player than a casual fan, paradoxically. For all of the beamoaning how the series was now "Too anime" and "Infested By CASUALS", Fates arguably gives the real Hard Mode Gaming fans what they want over the 3ds noobs, to an extent only somewhat matched by future entries. Fates is a game of experimentation, vastly increasing the scope of combat by including more moving variables from combat to combat, more control over how units grow and change class, and also Gay Marriage! Gay marriage is suboptimal for mixed attacker builds but that's besides the point.
Streetpass! Fates has an integrated streetpass system for distributing your customizable main character Corrin (You're probably familiar with them as the girl from smash bros withher feet out a chainsaw sword, but corrin is a lot more than that. Corrins can be deployed in all missions, and despite not having support conversations, they are fully featured insofar as having the exact stats and growths as the genuine article. Now, while streetpass and the Suprisingly Robust Online System have been down for some time now, through the power of hacking we can add and modify these Corrin Clones into the game, fully customizable in terms of giving them an appearance, a Pokemon-Nature esque Boon/Bane, and just about any class in the game and custom skill sets to make up for their lack of post-generation reclassing
Using the below google form, you can, without ever having had even played the game, or really understanding a ton about it, give me a corrin to use in my playthrough!

However, all corrins must know that they're fighting for their lives. in this Playthrough of Revelation Hard/Classic, permadeath is ENABLED. Your corrins CAN and perhaps WILL die. I, personally, have never played through Rev before in its entirety despite owning all 3 routes since launch, and although since I'm playing on the middle difficulty and have a lot of experience with the game's mechanics, I do NOT know the finer points about the back half of Rev. So uh sorry Bee
anyway I had a great time playing Metaphor Refantazio and Deltarune and also like all of fe7 but fuck all that it's corrins time
CHAPTER 18: MENTAL BLINDSPOTS
We've got a job to do: go kick the shit out of the vallites
Our plan has started swimmingly
Eyo kamui before we hop in have a puff of my certified Chevois cheddar. this shit is gonna have you seeing the invisible kingdom

FOOLISH DRAGONSPAWN. I LACED YO SHIIIIIIIT
oh christ

I'm sorry lord Kamui... I... got crossfaded off the Bottomless Boof....

Anyway we have a chapter to play. All* enemies** from this point on are promoted so we do have to lock in on positioning and matchups
But before that, we have some reclassing to do.
Vesthal gets a massive stat boost off the witch promo. Thanks dlc! She's pretty much going to be same as usual ability wise though, just much faster
Meanwhile, Luna is going to be getting more movement, bulk, and also E rank swords. Man it'd be nice if that was extremely relevant Right Now.
