Law route is an uncomfortable story to play out (spoilers)

[Stormy Fairweather]

taking part in the massacre in balmamusa was hard enough to do. but cistina being sold into slavery was brutal (and lets face it, women slaves are not merely put to work in a plantation). also leaving cerya to be raped to death later on legit bothers me. i know war is gruesome, and i respect the game devs for not shying away from such... but it REALLY makes me regret choosing law route as my 'final' route to have the most characters alive in the warren reports (also since that route seems to be cannon according to the manga).

Wait till you see the uncomfortable hanging of Vyce on Chaos <_< Bad ♥♥♥♥ goes down no matter what path you pick.

Those without the will to fight for their freedom deserve only death. Law route is best route.

I'm not gonna lie I skipped a bunch of uncomfortable scenes (rewatched them later via wheel of fortune). The only one I didn't skip was Vyce playing hangman because it was hilarious how wide his mouth was open.

Well there's no canon route at the moment according to Matsuno. This may change if the ogre story continues but he also said it could be a route that wasn't even in the game.

The law route is the best for this reason imo, not for the sake of edge or anything like that but all these things truly happen. I liked the idea of the main character doing something really negative and horrible(to be fair he didn't do it but he supported the decision) and learning from it and not shying away from his actions.

Wait, what's this about Cistina and Cerya? I don't remember seeing this on the lawful path, and I'm near the end of chapter 4.

law doesnt mesn good it means you obey orders.

Law Route - You Agree to Murder a city, but Wallisters are more unified than ever. even when Duke sends them off to there Death and goes mad lol and you take control of the Whole Battle, and Vyce is your Ally later down the Road.....
Law - Gives you Alot of Unique Class Units

Chaos - Same way but Vyce is leading them, and Most of the Wallisters are hunting Denam instead. if you still dont agree than Vyce dies no matter what choice you make lol and your forced. but you still end up controlling the Wallister Group.
Chaos - Gives you the "Hardest" Class Units to obtain....

Neutral - Mid Chapter (part Chaos) you agree to help again (basically Skips the effort of Law Chapter 3).. in Chapters 2 - 3 you save the other factions who fall, yet all other factions will be against you. (however yields the most characters, at the same time, it doesnt yield all the unique ones) however Lenoar is in Control. and ends up dying to Cautia.
Netural - gives you the most Characters, and Earliest Classes (Generally the Speed Run route if were to plan to speed run the game, because it hits ya fast and hard)

It makes me really want that sequel...so I can figure out what happened to Lanselot Tartaros. <_< Oh, and I want Denam to join the party Ala Ogre Battle 64.

No matter the timeline, Balbatos is weaksauce.

I don't know, you get the power to rewind time but for some reason you can't manage to find a path that isn't complete ♥♥♥♥ in some regard. Not liking that a lot.

What things would be included in/excluded from your perfect path in the game?

[Broso]

Well, I haven't thought about the details, to be honest. But roughly speaking, no innocent sacrifices and no cruel fates for those who don't deserve them.

[Super Ourico]

Realistic outcomes are part of the unique appeal. Stories where things play out ideally are a dime a dozen, but in the real world innocents suffer and bad guys sometimes win. This is part of what made the Game of Thrones TV show so popular back before it sucked.

Not saying you're wrong for wanting some changes, but the bittersweet drama is what sets this game apart from so many others.

[Broso]

In the real world you don't have the power to turn back time...

[Jedo]

I think rather than a perfect timeline, more satisfying outcomes would have been a good extra route. Being able to personally take revenge on the Duke is a start (Leonar deprived us of that). It would also be cool if we had to pick between 2 paths in a route to save/forfeit different story/unique characters.
