So I made the very bad mistake of reading some discussion around different places of the story. oh man these arguments will be the worst for years to come.

But it brings me to something I find really neat about 3H... but also will make discussion about it just the worst. So much lore and character motivations are off in supports and battle convos, to the point where the difference between seeing them and not (and they're optional and lots of people understandably won't see all of them!) can drastically change your perspective on events or characters. Personally I love trying to find, collect, and piece together the puzzle pieces but man if you don't have enough of them/the right ones I could see it really affecting how you feel about things.

For myself, I think if I didn't have the working knowledge from a lot of them I'd be coming down harder on the writing/storytelling. But as it stands, I feel like the information is there, it's just not delivered to you through mandatory channels. Again, it's like putting together a puzzle for me... except obtaining many important pieces is in optional content and could be easily missed. I know for a fact I missed some battle convos, for instance, so I know there's still more out there I didn't see even in Crimson Flower to say nothing of the possible permutations of who you did or didn't recruit.

I... don't know where I'm going with all this. I think I just felt a bit deflated, frustrated, and saddened by some of the stuff I was reading. =(
