      i'm replaying it now but i haven't gotten to any of that stuff yet. i remember it being mostly good, and edelgard is definitely portrayed as mostly good for her violent revolution against the church and status quo. but like half the fandom hates her with a burning passion, so maybe she's less good than i remember. i doubt it, but maybe i've just been poisoned by the fandom into thinking she's cooler than she is.

      it might depend on the route you pick too, since i only ever picked the route where you get to attack and dethrone the pope. I know she does some fucked up shit without the player character on her team, but that's true of 2 of the other 3 leaders, and the game cares about claude so much less than rhea edelgard and dimitri, and they don't have the same excuses.

      also i haven't played it since 2019, and i was way more of a lib back then, so take everything i just said with a grain of salt.
