I like to pair my characters in combat based on the total damage they can do together or to help move slower units faster across the field. I know this builds up the relationship levels. I just want to know if their is an easy solution so they don’t become romantic with each other in the process. I don’t see how that’s attacking Fire emblem’s choice to allow the behavior of those people in the game.

You contradicted the first half of your argument with the second half. If you're truly pairing units up because it improves damage, why would you not take another support rank to get the boost from it? I mean, if you want the S-rank with specific characters, then it's simple; grind those characters first. Not second. Or pull them off when they get to A and then grind the S-rank out with the desired character so that getting S-rank is disabled for that pairing.

I have no idea what you are taking about. Rank this rank that. What?

As units' support ranking grows, they get extra bonuses for working together basically. So if you want them to be as good as possible together, their 'relationship level' or support rank or whatever they call it in this game, will need to be worked on.

That being said, if you're dire for an strictly no rainbow go zone, just check the list of characters that disagree with your moral compass and maybe don't pair them together? There's like six of them, it can't be that hard.

Play previous fire emblem games, then? I think it's pretty clear. The only reason you wouldn't know what I'm talking about if you're a gameplay min-maxer is if you haven't played any fire emblem before at all. Or, you're just guising your dislike for the content by using gameplay as an excuse.

I have played fire emblem awakening to the end of the main story twice. Once with each main npc. Played a little of fates but the story wasn’t compiling enough to ever finish the story. So I barely know how the team-up and relationship systems tie into each other. I don’t full dive into games anymore. I just don’t find games as fun as they used to be.

Too bad this FE hasnt really had good marketing

Steel-Winged_Pegasus · Jul 14, 2019

Gods, I enjoy watching all of two people going "REEEEE" at the OPTIONAL same sex marriages. Disgusting news? Fire Emblem promoting this "sinful" behavior? That's some funny shit, lol.

GbaNober · Jul 14, 2019

at least it's "OPTIONAL" not forced because FE understand that they need to balance the minority and majority type of their fan/customer base.

I could never get into chess. Grid shit may have worked in the seventh century because of manufacturing limitations, but nowadays I consider it lazy and unacceptable.

(Do you see the problem here?)

Sure do. I tend to like every other element about this game mind you, it's just the combat mechanics that feel dated and won't change because it's a staple of the franchise. And yes I hate chess too

Deleted User · Jul 14, 2019

It says a lot on how they consider the expectations their target demographic.
Good to be a niche, I don't have to bend (hum) to dated marketing tropes.

And I love chess, duality is what really makes strategy fun.

Real time strategy are more sandboxes when played against CPU and tacticals are grinding fest, nothing more.
E*chi stuff in FE just gave more appeal to it.

julianuf · Jul 14, 2019

I don't understand all of the "it's not forced" and "it's optional" stuff so many people keep saying.

For picking out the romance for a character that's supposed to be a representation of the player... Yeah, sure.

But does that mean, if there was a character in the game that was gay, and could only date guys, or if it were a different type of game and one of the male characters dated another male character throughout the game's story, that WOULD NOT be acceptable? (Or is the "key" word here marriage...?)

If so... Some of y'all need to take a good hard look in the mirror. ;(

GbaNober · Jul 14, 2019

The developer said it's "optional" thank god.

If only straight stuff was optional in the majority of video games....

So according to Ninty you still can't just be gay, you GOTTA BE BI

I would point out that this is incest, but Fates did let you marry and fuck your cousin so I can't even argue they wouldn't do that.

LittleFlame said:

It is a roleplaying game so in reality you can be whatever you want. Maybe you're the only gay at the school and all the people you can date are bi, but I really doubt the game explicitly calls Byleths bisexual. They probably don't call anyone bi.

As long as it's not explicitly forced, there's no real issue. I know it sounds awful, but yeah..

Plenty of games do explicitly force the player to be straight so I don't think that would be a problem either. Even Assassins Creed Odyssey which allows for gay romance options forces the player into a heterosexual relationship, so if they can do stuff like that I see no reason a game can't force players to choose a same-sex partner. No reason Nintendo can't release a game where the player is explicitly gay.

DarthDub said:
What about the gameplay though?

There are plenty of threads about that which you can read if this doesn't interest you. But of course this is a part of the gameplay. It's a feature in the game. You play the game. The game you play has this feature as part of your play. Gameplay.

I agree, it is disgusting news that people feel the need to attack a game for having lgbt people in it. Theyre such snowflakes that they cant even handle FACTS and EVIDENCE like the existence of gay people. SAD!

It’s sad that people forget how they made it onto this planet. This generation think they know better than all that came before them with their rainbow BS and now they’re pushing it on kids to confuse them, disgraceful, selfish fucks

Well first off...I am so glad I can romance the right gender that I like (sadly none of the guys are that hot but oh well better than nothing).
Second...someone is oddly triggered. Why you hating on LGBT people? People have been gay for forever. And nothing personal I knew I liked guys when I was 5...so yeah. A LOT of kids already have feelings like this. Nothing is being pushed because nothing can be pushed. It;s just an option.
Third, you sound like one of those old racists. The type who wouldn't let their kids see Guess Who's Coming to Dinner because it forces miscegenation on them.

I can't believe I googled this.. my stomach. At least there was a more or less funny one. I won't talk about the other things I've seen.. never again.
