bc yeah. when naruto says "friendship is EVERYTHING" it's not a sparkly protagonist who hasn't seen the world yet. it's a deeply hurt, orphaned, 12 year old kid in an obnoxious orange jumpsuit who doesnt even know how much hes hurting, yelling at you angrily struggling to hold back his tears bc friendship and caring was the only thing that kept him from going into the dark

okay unpopular opinion time but I truly don’t consider the “Leon’s parents were in the mafia” bit from OG RE2 marketing material as canon, bc like. if it were, I think it would’ve been acknowledged more
plus, it’s not even the most consistent backstory. the SD Perry novels have him coming from a family of cops and the WTRC movie says his father had him reassigned to Raccoon after an accident. canonically speaking, we don’t actually know what happened to his parents.

hey only fe fan i follow, how have you been liking engage? i've been torn because it has some fun moments and the characters are all great but the main plot is bonkers balls to the wall weird. but it's nice to have supports that aren't just someone trauma dumping for 15 straight minutes (i like 3h but its supports were sometimes difficult to get through) so i'm back and forth overall.
yeah, there are a handful of characters i like or find interesting and a few moments of actual earnest emotion scattered throughout the story but for the most part the writing is shallow as all fuck. i've read that this is the same writing team that did Fates, and it really, really shows - i know that this was meant to be more of a fun game celebrating the franchise anniversary than anything heavier or more philosophical/political (plus the devs are on the record as stating they wanted a "simpler" story so players could spend most of their attention on the new gameplay additions), but i really do think there's a much better middle ground out there than...what they ended up with, which mostly just smacks of minimal effort/resources. it's especially obvious with the quality (or lack thereof) of some of the support chains (and most of the emblem bond conversations, tbqfh).
i'm also not a big fan of the art style or the return of more overtly fanservicey designs, but the colors and smoother battle animations are nice to look at. and the gameplay is definitely fun, even if i have to turn off my brain for the story segments in between. idk, it's never going to mean half of a percent as much as awakening or three houses does to me, but i guess it's a decent enough time kill while waiting for what's next, possibly the rumored fe4 remake?

something I guess I’ve never really thought about with Uprising is the fact that Flynn is just out there, alive, during all of it. and I’d have to assume he at least heard about what was going on in Argon. did it give him any hope that Tron was alive or did he just assume it was a copycat with no connection to his friend? would he have even let himself have that hope? how hard was he hit by the uprising’s ultimate failure, knowing that even if he wanted to he couldn’t have helped?
