I like it too. Shame its fucking impossible to talk about anywhere on the internet because everybody has the one or two games they only like and hate the rest.

Fire emblem may be my favorite franchise, I have only played the 3ds ones and three houses. I need to play the rest. Honestly, tactical rpgs may be my favorite video game genre

I liked all of them well enough until Engage broke the streak. I get what you mean though. Plus 3H brought in so many new fans who are only interested in 3H.

I enjoy pretty much most FE games and consider it one of my favorite series.

Engage is peak Fire Emblem as far as gameplay goes. The series has very few stories I would say are good/great, and even those I skip on repeat playthroughs. Three Houses meanwhile is kind of a slog to replay, and it's not as fun to ironman.

I only played Awakening, I kinda was turned off from getting fates after the mess about the official localizations, maybe I will get a copy of the japanese version and try reading it as it is.

The story isn't good either way. The countries aren't even named in the Japanese version. The only one worth playing is Conquest because the gameplay is one of the best in the series.

I kinda like Conquest more than Engage but I agree both are a delight and 3H is kinda a slog. I really love that CQ relies more heavily on changing skills and enemy formations as opposed to stat inflation and reinforcements for difficulty. Plus supports are just really well integrated into the gameplay with how pair up was refined, how it matters for reclassing, and I genuinely like playing matchmaker, plot be damned. Also MyCastle is still the best hub thanks to being snappy and the game overall just has a great UI. There’s some serious bullshit like Inevitable End and not being able to save after the chapter before Endgame, but those little things are enough to edge out over Engage. Break and the titular mechanic are really fresh takes though and Engage has been almost as satisfying to play through.

Ninian my beloved

its also my favorite series. thracia 776 and radiant dawn are also some of my favorite games ever

oh my god

me too

/v/ has a collective FE ironman thread, it was hilarious when they tried to do the gba games

I LOVE INCEST AND WATCHING SIBLINGS FUCK

Yes

So what's the deal with Ivy hype? I see people talk like she's a fucking nuke and she's not at all? She's really good at chip damage and crowd control (slapped Corrin and Speed+5/Divine Pulse on her) but she's not literally soloing maps like I've seen some claim. She gets doubled all the time so her bulk is kinda meh despite the good HP and DEF. Haven't given anyone statboosters yet so is it just she's a popular favoritism choice?

She's a good unit, but you do have to patch her speed up. I think she gets overrated because flying deathball is a popular strategy if you give one flyer Lucina. I did it on my first playthrough.

But yeah she's also hot and a flying mage so popularity. My personal favorite unit is Panette because I fucking love crit builds.
