Added DiffLines:

* NoOntologicalInertia: The warring states of Ardra in practice are a collection of villages and tribes that unite under the most prestigious of houses, who claimed their DivineRightOfKings through blood oath with otherworldly beings. If the lineage of the king is extinguished, the country disintegrates and the villages that swore loyalty to them [[MightMakesRight would be raided and annexed by other houses]], such as Lykeros when Jayden massacred the royal family. Fennes survived destruction when the previous king died in a war against Oelde because Muraga's clan had conquered previous inhabitants, becoming the new Fennes.

* AnimalMotif: Pretty much all of the kingdoms in Ardra has national animal they proudly emblazon on their flags and many people from each country exhibit traits according to said animal. The only country that doesn't have AnimalMotif is the [[ChurchMilitant Crystal Sanctum]].



* ArrangedMarriage: Princess Macherie of Hourne is engaged to King Muraga of Fennes as part of an alliance between the two nations and the story begins with her trying to travel through Leonis to get to Fennes for the wedding.

** While he initially allied with Sadali because Sadali promised him power, Muraga's downfall ultimately caused by his wife Melnia manipulating him on Sadali's order. This caused Muraga to favor Melnia over his loyal cousin and strategist Oldoa, and became Sadali's pawn to seduce Sterne away from his family.

** King Oberon of Heindler had ConflictingLoyalty to his childhood friend King Jayden of Rundall and his fiancee Princess Lucielle of Ovis. When Jayden attempts to conquer Ovis and call on his alliance with Oberon for the invasion, the generals of Heindler think that Jayden is taking advantage of their friendship while generals of Rundall think Oberon would be biased when facing Lucielle. [[spoiler:Lucielle's ambitious younger twin Shalze took advantage of this by disguising herself as Lucielle and manipulated Oberon's feeling. Oberon ended up stabbing Jayden in a fit of madness, and he started to spent extravagantly on military projects out of paranoia. Not even his beloved younger sister Alaya can talk him down.]]
** [[spoiler:Avarted slightly with the main characters; when Mont made his feeling for Macherie known, many in Hourne fear that Lionis attempts to supplant House Hourne from their own realm, especially after Lionis retreated from their homeland because of the Realmscourge's deadly miasma. Macherie knew this and attempted to reject his advances, but Engelbert decided to stamp any dissent that arise from union.]]

Gilgamesh and Amnelis joined forces with Sadali and his lover Exia to nurture Ardra's civilizations, so they're strong enough to defeat the Realmscourge. But now, they're OutOfContinues, Sadali went mad from TimeLoopFatigue and commited FaceHeelTurn, and the Realmscourge woke up early...]]

''War of the Visions: Final Fantasy Brave Exvius'' is a [[AllegedlyFreeGame Free-to-play]] game in the [[RunningGag eye-searingly popular]] ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' series.

It is a spinoff tactical RPG of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyBraveExvius''. It was announced on December 2, 2018 and released in Japan on November 14, 2019, followed by the worldwide release on March 25, 2020. Just as how ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyBraveExvius'' is the ''VideoGame/BraveFrontier'' to the ''Final Fantasy'' series, ''War of the Visions'' seems to take some cues from another Gumi tactical RPG, ''The VideoGame/AlchemistCode''.

* GreaterScopeVillain: In Arc 1, much of the warmongering between Leonis, Hourne, Fennes, and Wezette is sparked by the growing threat of Rundall: a massive military nation which recently conquered the entire west half of Ardra. All signs point to Rundall planning to continue their advance east until all of Ardra is under its rule, and the four eastern nations all seem to recognise that only a united army has a hope of defending themselves, leading to plots to unify eastern Ardra through diplomacy or military force.

** Downplayed, as far as units go. The gap between some Ultra Rare units and Mega Rare units exists, but is rather small for casual play. Mont is considered on par with an Ultra Rare unit, and other easy-to-obtain Mega Rares like Gaffgarion, Shadowlynx, and Rairyuu are considered close behind low-end Ultra Rares. Salire, the only Mega Mega Rare unit, is outright on par with Ultra Rares. Phoebe and Chell are strong support mages despite their rarity, while Mia is a good thief at Rare. On the other hand, the early 100-cost units, whose shards cost twice as much in the shop, are considered to be at best a minor upgrade to the best Ultra Rares. Thancred is an egregious case, since he is limited-time, has no Limit Burst (not to mention an underpowered kit), and his Trust Mastery Reward has no ability attached to it. Gilgamesh is strong in the right compositions, but suffers a bit from being a MasterofNone. Winged One is split between ATK and MAG skills. It took six months for Gumi to release a cost-100 unit that was considered the best in his class, and even then some questioned whether or not he was worth it.

** Subverted with Vision Cards. Vow of Love, which is widely accepted to be the best Vision Card in the game, is a Mega Rare. An Ultra Rare card with more party ATK exists, but most use Vow on their tank because of its Hate increase. Leonis Castle is a very strong defensive vision card, while Hourne Castle provides gobs of ATK to its user. Both are Rare cards. In contrast, some Ultra Rare cards are considered niche or unusable trash.
