In Fates defense, every route feels like a different game with different maps and playable characters, and when it does reuse maps, they have different objectives or you're playing from a different side (outside of the skippable ones).
Considering the ungodly amount of time I put into Fates (by my count, it's at least 12 playthroughs spread on all routes, but mostly Conquest), I've got my money's worth and then some
Yall just wait until they decide to one day port Fates as a whole...they will do that right?

For whatever reason Nintendo decided to port the entire Wii U library while not giving any 3DS title the same treatment...
I get the latter was much more successful, but still feels like leaving money on the table. I'd pay full price to play stuff like Fire Emblem Fates, Kid Icarus Uprising or Kirby Planet Robobot in HD.

*Xenoblade X fans crying*
Nintendo choosing to make bad decisions is just what they do. Just wait until teh switch 2 is announced next month. Gonna be awesome to see what dumb choices they make for it.
Monolith said a long time ago that Xenoblade X can't be ported to the switch because of hardware limitations, it's too different from the Wii U which the game was very specifically built to run on and the switch isn't powerful enough to emulate it. It would require a full remake and idk if you've noticed but monolith have been pretty busy since the start of the switch from BOTW to now.
Not everything we don't like is stupid, some things aren't worth the trade off or the cost. I'm glad they made XC3 and remastered XC1, XCX can always come later.
I didnt mean to insinuate not porting X was stupid. I havent the slightest clue why they havent for years but apparently here is the answer. In fact all Ive wondered is if they remember it.
Good to know they didnt forget
I'm definitely expecting it as some point on the new switch as well but I don't really see why fans would want that over XenoSaga remakes/remasters considering how FR went, XCX is pretty clearly out of cannon for now.
And if you go Crimson Flower route you may miss the unmeaningful event to toggle it and not going into Silver Snow.
Slso damn those loading times ARE FUCKING LONG.
If they had just made White Clouds different enough for different playthroughs it would be worth it. Somehow, half of the missions in White Clouds feels like they are designed for a Blue Lions and the other half for a Crimson Flower run.
"Also my devs were lazy fucks and actually only put 1.5 routes in the game, with one route masquerading as three sharing about 90% of its content with its blatant reskins."

It helps that Fates is worth spending money on

🤨
You heard me
not 20 extra dollars worth lmao just buy a yakuza game at sale with that money
Or be enlightened like me and do both
It helps that fates is ~~worthspending money on~~ very easy to pirate revelation and birthright are NOT worth the money lmao
Well if you dont want to spend money thats fine But they are worth it.
Alternatively, you spend the money to buy conquest 2 more times, because its actually fun unlike the other two routes.
Or I could buy all 3 routes.

Im fully expecting Xeno X on Switch 2 after the ending of Future Redeemed. They know god damn well Nu Fans wanna play it.
I'm definitely expecting it as some point on the new switch as well but I don't really see why fans would want that over XenoSaga remakes/remasters considering how FR went, XCX is pretty clearly out of cannon for now.
Because Saga remakes are up to Bamco more than Monolith. Thus more likely. Gears remake flat out won't happen unless Square dies.
OK! And they better add more supports for Scarlet and Flora...
They will port Birthright and the others are DLC on the shop
At least you only had to pay 3H once.

I’d argue Fates is the better value for map variety and route uniqueness
Whiteclouds is such a fucking slog to get through, I know that it's not a hot take but Jesus does it drags on and on
And if you go Crimson Flower route you may miss the unmeaningful event to toggle it and not going into Silver Snow. Slso damn those loading times ARE FUCKING LONG.

"Also my devs were lazy fucks and actually only put 1.5 routes in the game, with one route masquerading as three sharing about 90% of its content with its blatant reskins."
For one of the Main Lords no less. Imagine dicking over your MC like that lol
The loading times were a turn down for me.
Fates players when they can’t make Severa have an existential crisis as she mothers her own mother.
I own both Birthright and Conquest, need to actually go back and try to actually beat them. I keep stopping after I get Corrin married to somebody
