Nintendo Europe has confirmed this afternoon that the daredevils amongst you will be able to select an ultra hard difficulty in Fire Emblem: Three Houses later this year. The mode is a step up from hard and should prove to be a nightmare even for hardcore players. More details will be announced at a later date.
Thanks to Brandon for the news tip!
As long as it’s not Awakening Lunatic + kind of nightmarish I will probably attempt to complete it.

I remember trying a no grind no second seal run of Awakening’s Lunatic+. I got to chapter 17 before I just couldn’t progress. Funnily enough that chapter’s called ‘Inexorable Death’. I just can’t deal with about 30 units with Counter, Luna+, Hawkeye and Pass all rushing you at once.

I didn’t even get that far. I was too tired of all those beefed up units. I only got to like chapter 8 or 9 iirc and then I pretty much ragequit.
Also not a gamemode for me since I love Archers and those were just useless in Lunatic +

Actually, archers are arguably the best units for Lunatic+ since they never proc the enemy’s Counter skill. This person completed Lunatic+ mainly by re-classing various units to archers: https://forums.serenesforest.net/index.php?/topic/40300-lunatic-playlogguidewalkthrough-completed/

I’m guessing it removes Divine Pulse? Sounds fun!

Doubt it. Fire Emblem never does difficulty that removes features.
It’ll likely just be more buffed enemies.

No thanks. Even if I didn’t mind masochistic difficulties, I don’t have time to play on such a time consuming difficulty. I got a huge backlog of games, I got a lot of YouTube subscriptions, and I watch WWE on Mondays (Raw), Tuesdays (Smackdown; til it moves to Fridays on Fox), sometimes Wednesdays (NXT), sometimes Fridays (NXT Takeovers), & sometimes Sundays (PPVs); I’ll be able to add AEW to that starting on October 2nd which is a Wednesday. Not to mention I have to give time to my wife & son, too, when they want said time.

My plan is to do normal, hard, and lunatic, each with a different house. That’ll take a long time to complete though.
