I saw black card now, just asking does credit card required for making payment online?
Hmm if im thinking right, I think you can use a credit card, power up or a gift card. I think it gave me an option to use one when I preordered Sonic Forces online. im sorry if this doesnt answer you :substitute:

I'll give it a try, though I won't rank the ones from games I haven't played(Akaneia, Jugdral and Tellius)
From least evil to most evil
"Just being controlled and had no choice" tier:
Idunn
Eirika's Route!Lyon

"Good intentions, bad means of getting there" tier:
OG Black Fang gang
Rudolf
Walmart

"Kind of just there but ****ing ******** at it" tier:
Fernand
Ursula
Aversa

"Sad consequences of the reality they exist in" tier:
Limstella
Ephidel
Gangrel

"Sacrificed his wife to Satan" tier:
Berkut

"Would do LITERALLY anything for their ambitions" tier:
Lungdren
Caellach
Narcian

"Child abuse, murder and fanservice" tier:
Sonia

"Wants to revive Satan" tier:
Riev
Validar
Papa Smurf

"Just a really ****ed up kid" tier:
Ephraim's route!Lyon

"**** too much **** to list" tier:
Valter

"Almost ended the entire human race because they had a Dragon boner and some daddy issues" tier:
Nergal
Zephiel

Unranked because they're too cartoony to take seriously:
Garon
Iago
Hans
(Like, I'm being honest here, I can't take any of them seriously enough to put them anywhere here)
Wouldn't Aversa go in a different tier?

The Wellspring of Truth reveals that she had been abducted by the Grimleal and brainwashed, making her better fit for the "Being Controlled" tier, IMO.

This, pretty much. I'd just move Aversa to Gangrel's tier.

Who is Papa Smurf though?

The only thing she was led to believe was that Validar saved her life(which is why she was so loyal to him), she still did what she did mostly on her own accord.
Otherwise, Nergal wouldn't count because he's just insane due to Dark Magic shenanigans, but that doesn't take out the fact he killed a bunch of people.

Meanwhile, Eirika!Lyon(who's basically the Demon King using his body) and Idunn(who is forced to do anything Zephiel says) were outright being controlled.

I do belive it asks what adress you would want the item shipped to while you are checking out. I think once you finish the preorder, you cant change the adress that item is sent to.
Edit: when I went to see if you can change the adress after preorder I get this "The ability to modify this order is not available on our mobile site at this time." But im on mobile so idk about on the desktop site

The most recent of those is from 4/5 years ago, spoiler tags for that stopped being necessary at least two years ago

This is nonsense. Having not played the original Gaiden because I was waiting for an eventual remake, I was disappointed to read about Alm's actual backstory the very day said remake was revealed (in a Youtube comment section)

I didn't play FE6. Its age hardly matters. I'd have liked to find out the villain's motives on my own.

Embarassing...

It's still an old game, I'm not going to be spoiler tagging everything because someone hasn't played it because there will always be someone who hasn't.
We're talking about GBA games now, if no one bothers to spoiler tag Fates stuff anymore, then I sure as hell won't bother with anything before it

Speaking of Fire Emblem, I've been lurking on GAF lately, as well as other forums, and people systematically have FE9 outrank FE10 for some reason. Is there any reason for that - aside from the 'Marie Sue protagonist' argument? Or is that all there is to it?

When I see people skipping XC2 entirely just because of Rex's design or throwing a fit over Lyn getting shorts in Warriors, I can't help but wonder and worry about what makes FE10 an inferior breed of sorts.

While I do agree old games that don't have a major focus on story can be spoiled after a decade, FE6 never got released in English, so that's a different situation, after all, he never had the chance to legally play it

It's simple. The Fire Emblem fandom is the ****ing worst. Only slightly joking btw, still can't believe people give death threats and try doxxing others for liking a fictional character

The doxxing thing turned out to be made up, at least.

By that logic, since he'd never be able to play the game legally, then the spoiler shouldn't matter.

For years I thought Cell was the Android 21. Leading me to relate the number 21 with perfection.

Now the real Android 21 appears... and indeed; 21 is perfection. :denzel:

Ya know.

Let's do something for all those Fire Emblem fans out there.

How about you rank all of the main villains on how evil they are? Fire Emblem's got a lot of differently motivated villains so it could be interesting.

That said, let's stick to human villains and remember that some games (PoR, Awakening, FE7) have a lot of main villains.
Lets see...

Awfully evil (Lack any sort of reason for why they do what they do, they just do it because and they'll do it with a smile on their faces. Watching the world burn would probably be a pastime for them and calling them generic villains would be more of a compliment)
Garon
Iago
Hans
Validar

Terribly Evil (They definitely at least humor genocide and have little reason for doing so)
Riev
FE10 Senators (excluding Hetzel)

Delightfully Evil (May have a purpose, but it means little in the scheme of things and they still do terrible things for their own personal enjoyment*)
Hilda
Sonia
Valter

Genocidal Evil (Sympathetic, but too extreme to be any lower*)
Zephiel
Nergal

Evil with a purpose (Generally they have a reason for why they do evil things and sometimes it's sympathetic, but it still crosses a line that most of those below wouldn't cross)
Gharnef
Jedah
Manfloy
Lungdren
Limstella
Ephraim!Lyon
Petrine
Ashnard
Jarod

Ambitiously Evil (A step above the previous tier, evil, but out of ambition rather then good will or losing their way)
Caellach
Narcian

Reasonably Evil (Mid-tier essentially, have reasons, but are still villains in the long run and aren't above doing questionable things for what they desire)
Berkut
Fernand
Arvis
Travant
Black Knight
Ludveck
Gangrel
Walhart
Aversa

Misguided Evil (Wanted to do right, but were either tricked or had questionable methods)
Michalis
Rudolf

Loyally Evil (Not really evil)
Pretty much any Camus

Controlled Evil (Completely controlled, have little responsibility for their actions)
FE3!Hardin
Eirika!Lyon

*Zephiel's and Sonia's tier are interchangeable since it comes down to how much you value sympathetic reasoning for their actions. Zephiel you can understand why he does what he does, but since his actions will lead to genocide it's still puts him high on the list. Sonia and the other two aren't going to commit genocide, but they have little/selfish reason for why they do certain things and what they do is still horrible regardless (ex. Hilda stealing children away from their parents to use them in battles to the death, and if the parents resist then she gleefully kills them).

Skipped Ledrick and Veld since I barely remember them. Also, if I could give the non-human villains their own place, FE1!Medeus would be with Gharnef while FE3!Medeus would be with Zephiel (FE1 he was sane and just wanted to conquer humans, FE3 he's resurrected and is implied to be about to go on a rampage, either way he has a sympathetic reason for hating humans), Duma with Rudolf, Idunn with Hardin, and Loptyr, Formortiis, Grima, and Anankos would have their own tier just above Riev.

Shadows of Valentia was a remake of a Japan exclusive game, with the remake being released outside Japan.
IS said they want to make more remakes, specifically saying FE6
So, I should always tag any spoilers because either the game is too recent or old enough to receive a potential remake? Got it
Like, if I see a FE6 getting announced, I'll start tagging spoilers, but for now, I'll tell everyone spoilers if discussing the game

Honestly, tagging any major story spoilers should always be done out of respect for others who haven't played it yet. There shouldn't be some time limit, because that's not the issue. It's a basic matter of respect.

I like what the Fire Emblem subreddit does.


Age of the game doesn't matter. If it's a spoiler, spoil it. Who gives a **** if you have to click an extra button if someone could enjoy going into something spoiler-free.

I'd make an obvious exception for Lucina since she is so prominent that the spoiler is unable to be hidden. But things like plot related things from FE6? Spoiler them.

So I guess this means I'll never be able to crack jokes out in the open about a certain incident because it's post Prison Island. . .

*sigh* I was hoping after Xenoblade came out on three systems I'd be free to eventually. . .

I finally got Mario + Rabbids and it is so, so good.

I actually like Rabbids now.

The game is so charming, had so much character, and as we all already know, Kirkhope is god-tier.

She technically got 3 trophies.
Also trophies for Jade Face, Bronze Face and Yaldabaoth basically spoiling nearly everything up to before REDACTED appears.

We should feel lucky because there's not a Dickson trophy
