Yeah but even the basic boots in league give at least 7-8% boost of speed. Like, I get it, I know movement speed is very important for mobas but I just wonder how often it's actually going to lead to a life or death situation vs something like raw stats or a shield or whatever else. Not saying it's unviable at all, just I definitely see now how it's being overrated.
but if everybody gets the basic boots (which they do), then it doesn't matter if they boost speed by .1% or 80%. Almost always, speed only matters relative to other players, as has been argued consistently here. Now, if the extra boosts KP would get are 7-8% above what other players tend to get and that's why they're effective, you have a point

But Joachim is the one that killed them, so if she wanted to save them she should have just got rid of him instead of having them get closer with the Brights and Renne so that she'd save them at the last second

imo it makes more sense for an "instinctual release" to be the simplest solution, which was getting rid of Joachim. What she actually did sounds more deliberate and thought out

It's not the point of why it happened, but I can't help thinking about it that way. And I think they did a fine job of presenting that KeA's struggle with her power without needing to drop that in there
Why would instincts demand the most simple and expedient solution? That's purely a mindset of rational, precautionary thinking. She wants to protect her family--she values her family, she's 100% motivated by her love for her family--so her instinctive method of accomplishing this goal is to create more bonds of love, to inspire others to protect that which she cares for.

Remember, she's basically omniscient at this point. She could rationally identify trillions ways of solving this issue; if she were so inclined, Joachim could die by a comically inefficient Rube Goldberg machine involving Tita, an acerbic tomato, three creepy sheep and a very large stick, and it'd be just as trivial to arrange as Joachim choking on a bruhfish and dying an ignominious death. She has an infinite solution set open to her, so the one that will be chosen will be the one her instinct and emotions resonate with.

And as I've said, she's torn about this whole issue. She's not going to use her powers, at least in significant and overt ways, to help her family much outside of averting their deaths. I'd imagine Lloyd would treat a failure to save KeA as equal to dying, so the "get out of jail free card" of him being in a sense immortal isn't terribly relevant

As a soundtrack, T&T is on another level. Something about it seems like it's taking things a bit more seriously, like it's "matured" in some difficult-to-define sense. Of course, all of the games have mournful Detention Centers, tragic Recollections, dramatic court themes, but of them all, I think the focus on songs that pack emotion into a very mellow package (Dahlia, Godot, Deauxnim, Hazakura) elevates T&T above the rest in this sense. You're not really getting songs like those consistently in any of the other games, regardless of how high-quality the soundtracks are, which makes T&T an easy choice in an excellent field. Drew Studio is my favorite track of AJ for similar reasons

I mean, as far as I understand, the entire political compass was created by American right-leaning Liberatarians to try to make themselves seem more important than they actually are.

Notice how there's four political categories, and American right-leaning Libertarian is one of the four. Now compare that to the real world--do you really think American right-leaning libertarians represent 25% of the political views worldwide? It certainly doesn't represent very many governments worldwide, I'll say that much.
classical/economic liberalism was a fairly significant political philosophy historically in the West, and it's kind of fallacious to argue that because a section of a model isn't used as much (nowadays), the model as a whole is biased or flawed. Is Celsius a terrible temperature scale because it's focused on 0-100 yet we very rarely use the rang of 50-90 degrees (incidentally, yes, but you probably disagree). The way it's organized makes sense, and the scaling/centering bias should be pretty easy to calibrate just by comparing the positions of a couple of leaders whose policies we understand well.

I don't think it was that big of a deal the way Azure did it, and you'll be spoiled on the events of one or the other regardless of how you do it. I played Zero and Azure last, and I still really enjoyed the experience. They still managed to surprise me from time to time, too.
saying that there's a civil war, specifying the factions, saying Osborne got shot, saying Osborne survived, saying how long the war lasts and that Crossbell gets conquered for how long are all fairly significant end-game plot points that are casually dropped, the last few of which are just explicitly told to you in the end credits for zero reason at all except as a half-assed way to tease Cold Steel and to try to rescue the rushed, anticlimactic ending of the game in a pathetically low-budget attempt not even Unisuga could rescue
