This game has made it abundantly clear that shez is the protagonist and byleth is just a hurdle for shez to get over. It's portrayal of all the 3H characters is distasteful and really underwhelming. Byleth had the opportunity to be fully developed into a great character, which is what most wanted when they said byleth was a lifeless character from three hopes (which I don't entirely agree with), yet they made byleth a throw away villain. But byleth isn't the only character who's been drastically changed and shafted. The story for this game is a mess and only redeemed by the gameplay. It's sad they went this route but eh whatever.

They marketed the whole game around Byleth and shez’s relationship but it ends up feeling like a throwaway B plot. Really disappointed in the way this game handled some characters but especially Byleth . Really feels like they only put any major effort into shez and just called it a day.

The game is marketed around Byleth and shez’s relationship yet regardless if they live or die they are practically removed from the story. this special chapter which revolves around arvals plan which revolves around sothis who is tied to Byleth, yet Byleth is absent. You unlock Byleth’s A support from this yet Byleth isnt even there, they run off. And then they only have supports with shez and don’t even impact the story at outside of this chapter, which also doesn’t impact or change the story at all after this point. Just makes you wonder what the point of going out of your way to recruit Byleth even is unless you have an emotional tie to the character or you’re a completionist. Like great you saved Byleth and defeated arval, but if you kill Byleth and arval stays inside you the story and ending is literally the same so is it that much of a good or bad ending? I hope this game gets a story DLC like age of calamity to fix some of this, especially cause this is most likely the last game we’re gonna get set in the three houses world since the original game has 4 different endings so it’s not like we can get a sequel like radiant dawn. This game still has plenty of great moments, characters, and expanded lore and shez is a good protagonists but they didn’t need to shaft Byleth as only an early game B-plot rival/antagonist. Both Byleth and shez are Mercenaries serving as vessels for Deities. If saving Byleth is a good ending then they should Have taken a more prominent role in the story moving further to elevate shez as a character, and since this timeline’s Byleth didn’t become a professor, shez could’ve elevated Byleth to have the character arc that was implied in three houses but we never really felt because they were a silent protagonist in that game.

Basically, the only way to unlock this secret mission is to recruit Byleth. It doesn't change the endings in anyway but changes the story. Epimenides' goal was to kill Sothis and the way to do that was to destroy her vessel (Byleth). In this mission, you learn that Arval is Epimenides' consciousness passed through generations to achieve the Agarthans' goal so you are pretty much a vessel too. You get to choose who lives and wins, whether Sothis or Epimenides. The interaction and the cutscene with the three lords changes depending on the routes you choose. Scarlet Blaze - Claude and Dimitri are first seen fighting then joined by Edelgard Azure Gleam - Edelgard loses her memories/in a bad mental state due to Thales forcing the power of a crest stone early in the route Golden Wildfire - Same with SB but Claude stops the two lords Endings are still the same whether you kill/recruit Byleth Edit: Endings do change in Scarlet Blaze if you recruit byleth, I forgot about the text in the ending.

Plus it would give a more logical way for them to escape as we know Byleth can escape dimensions while Epimenides acts like he can’t or 2. Have Byleth be the one to save the 4 from the other dimension since again, Sothis’ powers allow them to open dimensions.

Heck, he confesses as much in his S-Support with Byleth. This also extends to his interactions with his other comrades in VW, and in his supports with Cyril and eventual conversation with Rhea, he does genuinely soften his stance on her when he realizes that she has some genuine positive qualities and what she went through to get where she was. Finally, his final speech to Nemesis, while a distraction, felt incredibly sincere in its delivery, though that might just be Joe Zieja's acting. Claude did legitimately change his mind across Verdant Wind as he came across new information, and he did become noticeably more compassionate to others both in his supports and in events. Even outside of Verdant Wind, he always trusted in the better nature of his former classmates and had an unconditional trust in Byleth.

Assuming that you don't forgo this route direction which has its own 'interpretation' on any of the three paths, Byleth is treated as 'Lu Bu' but it makes little sense because Byleth was never your ally and only wants you dead if you kill Jeralt. If you do try to recruit Jeralt and therefore Byleth at the same time, your own character becomes a legit 'Lu Bu' albeit only due to being possessed and forced to make actions without their own consent. Being a highly important figure for the allies, only to turn tail and attack them. In Scarlet Blaze, Hubert and Ferdinand somewhat lampshade this and aren't happy with the fact that you might need to die while Monica (who you directly helped save) tries to reason out that resorting to your death is a cruel end considering that the Empire's progress up to this point was also in part, thanks to your presence and contribution. Edelgard herself doesn't know how to make heads or tails of the scenario, she really does like you as a close friend (compared to Byleth who to her was her lover) and when you and the three Lords are forced to work together, again, says that she really wants to believe that you never meant to harm anyone and are telling the truth. Conversely, Dimitri and Claude in SB, despite acting suspicious about you due to your possessed actions, pinpoint the real threat and cause of the chaos the moment 'they' manifest behind you and are all giddy to kill Arval, meanwhile Edelgard just wants everyone to work together so they can all escape alive.

Lu Bu is an optional boss that would appear on some maps, famous to be an absolute beast that you really don't want to face until extremely necessary, and is not part of any of the three kingdoms. Same goes for Byleth, who is a mercenary (so he works for whoever pays him) and is an absolute unit

So, let's see if I'm understanding this right: 1. The game has 3 routes and only 3 routes. 2. There are 2 endings for each route and they center around killing or recruiting Byleth. 3. Killing Byleth gets you to go through the route normally. 4. Recruiting Byleth gets you this secret extra mission and then you continue with the route and get a different variation of their ending. I got this right?

I was really hoping that, if we did get a 4th route, if would've been with Byleth as the "lord" and teaming up with Shez and somewhat turn it to a "golden route". Like I understand that this is an alternate timeline where Shez is the protagonist instead and maybe it's just me liking Byleth too much, but I'm just very disappointed with how they handled Byleth. They should've had a stronger impact than just a single mission. I'm pretty conflicted cus I like how they fleshed out and developed a lot of characters, but at the same time dropping the ball with Sothis and Byelth falls really short for me...

Nice to see Fleche alive and sane on this version…

The House Leaders reactions to everything in Chapter 16 is just brilliant if not depressing or funny given how they normally act in Three Houses. Edelgard and Dimitri's dialogue is a callback to Cindered Shadow's DLC conversation between the two. Shez asks Claude (provided you didn't pick the Golden Deer) if he has a brilliant scheme to get them out and he just laughs at the thought. Edelgard and Claude's dialogue conversation shows how the former intended to put a stop to the Church by just capturing Rhea alive and having her just be removed from power. Claude back in Golden Deer's route in Three Houses mentions that he wouldn't mind Rhea just gone for good and he thought that was Edelgard's intention here in Three Hopes. As for the Phantom battles...lol. - Edelgard: Notes that it isn't the real Hubert because the copy is attacking her whereas the real one wouldn't do so. Notes that the Phantom versions death cries sound too real. Declines her own duplicate self's proposal because she doubts everyone, including herself. Really doesn't like seeing her 'own' death. - Dimitri: Berates the copy Dedue for 'insulting' him by saying that the real one would know why he's stuck working with his enemies at this time. Finds the fact of battling his own doubts to the death to be thrilling and is happy to kill 'himself'. Expresses happiness that the mutual enemy that they all face let him experience this one battle. Notes that Shez's clone is going to be the biggest and most powerful opponent ever and tries to get everyone to work together so they can stop your clone. - Claude: Finds it hard to battle copies of those he knows as he doesn't know how to see them as real or fakes. Jokes around with his own copy. Expresses doubts and sadness upon killing said copy stating it felt like killing his own twin brother. As for Shez... - Facing their own clone makes them really hate the whole ordeal because it acts like them. - Facing Byleth's clone has them express sadness because they really can't bring themselves to harm the one they want to be friends with.

Watch how 38:11 shatters like glas. May this be the time loop moment where Shez releases Arval in the past, considering space/time are often linked?

Man, I really do wish Byleth actually played a bigger part in this game considering who they are. Fact of the matter is that they've NEVER been a lifeless character, just emotionally stunted in no small part due to the whole Crest of Flames situation, but a personality can be seen provided that you look hard enough past the Eternal Poker Face. 3Hopes makes it a bit more obvious what with Byleth actually being voiced this time, but for having built Byleth up so much, it truly is a shame that their role in the story is as small as it is. You either kill them (and Sothis by extension) or recruit them and that's basically it. Weird considering how both Byleth and Sothis take up an entire side of the cover art.

It kind of odd to see Claude the bloodthirsty one for no reason that is justifiable. Dimitri being the voice of reason and doing what is truly right. Eldagard being the one to unity Foland and doing so in a measure and least casualty then needed. Honestly, I know Shez is suppose to be the main focus, but it feel like we are going backwards here.

I was definitely shocked there and felt scared for Byleth too

Honestly, this whole thing with Arval felt like the story stumbled over the finish line. Like I was all for Arval being a baddie but this was way too quickly introduced and concluded. Also for it being hard-linked with Byleth being recruited, it's disappointing to see that they and/or Sothis do not take part in the fight against Arval (I'm not gonna bother calling him by his true name). Also, I felt like the part of the fight where all 3 lords fight their phantoms should have had a bigger impact than it did. I know, war isn't easy to just stop but I honestly thought that beating the Phantoms would have given the lords a reality check that the war needs to stop. I played through Azure Gleam's version and got completely whiplashed when Claude started saying the same thing that Edelgarde was fighting for right before fighting Arval. So you mean to tell me that even if you beat the Empire, the Alliance has then taken the same stance and wants the church gone as well....so Azure Gleam is essentially worthless because nothing gets resolved other than the Silthers getting killed? I even thought Dimitri was gonna try to offer peace to Edelgarde at the end of AG but instead she's just left looking guilty in the final cutscene and then the epilogue says the Kingdom went and continued onto the ruins (metaphorical) of the Empire. I truly hope a 4th route gets added as DLC that can iron out some of these issues I have because I feel like I was left with wanting more conclusion.

And Arval ended up being evil as many theorized since her first appearance in the artworks, she's the goddess of the Agarthans/TWSITD, Sothis' enemy, for what? to be killed and the story continues like nothing happened? Shez has his/her powers even if Arval/Epimenedes is dead, and....wtf, Byleth doesnt even affect that much the story after being recruited except for this secret chapter, so, in the 3 routes, Claude is the new Nemesis, Dimitri faces Thales and Edelgard just like in 3H, heck even Fallen Edelgard (Hegemon Husk) is in W3H, and in the SB route Edelgard faces Rhea like in 3H but also Thales, but is that all? War will still roam Fodlan and everyone will remain as enemies or some characters die? Like... IS and Koei shouldve made a FE10 thing in this game, in that game if u do NG+ with other things made like FE9 Ike and Soren max support transfered to FE10, u can get certain events to happen different for the player to reach the true ending of the game. Srsly, this isnt the golden route we wanted.... Fuck.. now I dont know if I should really buy the game. I wanted this to be a real route, like a real reward after beating the 3 main routes, I wanted the empire, kingdom, alliance, abyss, and the church to join forces against the true evil in Fodlan, TWSITD/Agarthans leaded by Arval, I wanted all characters to be present in the final battle, and to have not only Shez and the house leaders but also Byleth and Sothis and maybe Rhea too facing Epimenedes in a hard af battle that will decide the fate of Fodlan.

It was never a promised 4th route or happy ending. They did not want to overwrite Three Houses and insult the fans of it by implying everyone's happier without Byleth becoming their professor. Hopes is a purely neutral "what if".

@@nuibaba280 guess Nintendo's Warriors games are What Ifs, just look at Age of Calamity, but I gotta admit that the secret route of evil Arval shouldve been more expanded instead of just two chapters.

@@eduardobustamante4749 Age of Calamity doesn't switch out protagonists. The devs themselves have acknowledged in an famitsu interview that it'd be insulting to the player of Three Houses to make endings where people are happy without Byleth. Arval isn't even evil, they're just a creation of the real baddie's consciousness.
