I agree. It works better for her. Plus, she has more of a reason to be fake than Charlotte ever did. For Panette, it's a matter of survival (more or less). Charlotte just wanted to marry rich. And thus, I dislike Charlotte, but I love Panette.
Yeah, also Panette is very sweet and cute despite her more aggressive nature. Something that comes out to defend herself and those she cares for, it's pretty compelling imo.
@@lapraslazuli For me, it's kind of the opposite. I feel Panette trying to act all ladylike and refined just didn't make sense to me because her aesthetic didn't really change, and the disguise was paper-thin at best. That, and since she already had a fairly secure place as a knight of the crown princess, her continued putting on airs felt a little unneeded? I actually sympathize with Charlotte way more, especially considering her goal with that fake persona, and I feel the larger difference between her "real" and "fake" selves showed that she took the performance far more seriously, and it in turn sold the idea that she was putting up a huge act to bag a rich husband. Honestly, if Fates' character writing was better, or if the voice actors brought the script to life better, Charlotte would be better than Panette.
@@MrGksarathy well she clearly states in a couple supports the act is to not bring shame to the solm royal family, this is even shown in this very video with her sapphir support "Oh but don't you see, a knight's bearing speaks to the bearing of her nation. If she makes even the smallest misstep it may linger as a national mark of shame.", regardless of how secure her position is she believes that her true personality would embarras the royals and therefore keeps up the act, I think you could also argue that she keeps it up to break free from her past since she tells timerra she isn't proud of her past of randomly picking fights with people, I also don't think her acting being worse is bad as it sorta ads to her character, it is kinda shown in her personal skill and etie support that she is pretty easy to provoke, this is contrasted with yunaka in the same game who is shown to be a skilled actor and is able to keep up her false persona a bit better then panette, it may just be because of the type of person panette is that her act isn't perfect, she is a bit of a weirdo shown in her interest in bugs and ghosts as well as having a lot of anger and rude behavior wich means trying to be a more cute refined lady would naturally come difficult to her, her disguise also makes sense as when reclassed she says she prefers her clothes with a little wear and tear so her combat outfit makes sense under her preferences(and even then her somniel design does have her wear something more refined)
"Furious ladies" Panette/Charlotte: Infantry axe harmonic, special cooldown + speed dmg reduction, duo skills gives the fury+wrath effect to allies within 2 spaces. I did the hw now IS give me my unit -spd please
"I need to toughen up so I can take out the enemies in one blow" - No, you do not Panette. You already one shot anything in the game. You are a walking apocalypse.
She is my hardest carry absolute nuking people with a Killer Axe+5 and Ike but I love the fact that her notebook entry says that "She is the most courteous" despite being an absolute caveman in combat. She's trying so hard to be polite. She is the best.
If I had a nickel for every young lady with a face tattoo who's faking a more agreeable personality, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
I love Panette, she's probably my favorite Engage character. She's one of the few well written characters with a somewhat fleshed out background. I found her very relatable, charming and cute. One of the best things to come out of this game
Well its not really two personalities it’s more like one is her mask and it slips when she gets angrier. It’s shown in the Saphir support why she acts like an regal retainer because she believes soldiers working directly for royalty should act that way, with herself being an retainer to the crown princess she does her best to not act like an barbarian in front of her and more knightly It’s similar to Yunaka where all the words she uses in that tone is an mask while her true self sounds much different and isn’t exactly as chipper about everything
@@rontheauraknight9606 well i do believe its having 2 personality's but i also understand what you mean cuz its like an coin that has 2 sides of what is shown even humans can have 2 different sides both for example being on the one side be kind and the other side be ruthless.
@@cryguy0000 some can even make a horrible impressian causing you to write them off entirely, I feel this isnthe biggest problem with why people aren't as invested in engage as 3h, love it or hate it the monastary does really allow you to grow attached to those fodlan kids a lot quicker(maybe a bit too quick in that it makes letting one die both harder from a gameplay and emotional level), I sorta blame the firene squad though, they do have some stuff to them but the introduction they make is awful not helped by the twins either, when I looked deeper into engage I found a lot of characters I came to love like pannette and gregory but they really do a bad job at getting people to see the more to them, even yunaka to some extend only really becomes interesting if you support her, now the story still kinda sucks but sometimes characters are more important then story so it is sad that unless you look deeper into it it is really easy to write of engage's cast
It’s really interesting how she is one side prim and proper and the other side is literally a berserker. Reminds me of a certain blond haired gold digger . It is truly funny
The Saphir support is interesting when you think about Panettes own situation. She isn't telling Saphir to be more polite just because, but because Panette isn't exactly dissimilar from Saphir naturally. She is doing it to help Saphir in an honest way, because she knows how fickle royalty can be, and it is something that will legitimately help Saphir. It's less "you need to be proper" and more "this will help you in the long run when dealing with the stupidity of royalty."
It's honestly weird though because timerra who she serves is barely less casual(she isn't going about cracking people's skull, but at the same time she still wonders about the country intentionally baiting bandits to solo them). And that's also the case of her mother, as well as fogado. Maybe the rest of solm nobility isn't that chill. Or she forces formality on herself so the rare times it's needed she can do it
@@namoma4922 She mentions that while most Solm nobility are relaxed, everyone is a bit different and there is also exceptions. Plus those times you deal with foreign visitors. It's also one thing for royalty to act up, but a retainer is another story.
I personally liked Boucheron more as a character and unit, maybe I’ll give her more of a shot in my next run but he was too good to afford slotting her lol
I think all of the cast here is the result of them blender-ing a number of their previous characters. Like say, Diamant is somewhat like Ogma but a royal like Hector His bro is a weird mix of Jeorge and Bernie Panette here is some weird mix of Peri and Charlotte Alfred and his lackeys have a bit of Raphael mixed in there Lemme know if there's more combos you see.
Diamant is Hector + Chrom + Xander. Alcryst is primarily Bernadetta with some Rolf/Gordin. Ivy is Camilla's design with Azura's personality. Hortensia is basically a more abrasive Elise with maybe a tad bit of Hilda. Zelkov is Hubert. Amber is Kieran.
Do not compare any character in this game to anyone from fates or awakening, thats an insult to engage's writing, except amber, he got the short end of the stock by the translation team for some reason...and an awful voice
