            If you take a step back and stop simping for a sec you would realize Rhea's actions are only motivated by the greater good. She is trying to prevent the Slithers to destroy the world once more while you're helping because you just want to simp.

                Why didn't she just do her Hopes plan from the beginning? Was Byleth being there to hold her hand REALLY that big of a limiter on her intellect to realise that hey, if you're committed to violent positive change already maybe even if you don't trust the Church of Seiros it's a better idea to make your enemies fight each other than trust in and rely on the people who tortured you?

                Anon, I don't mind character having flaws. I think that makes them endearing in my eyes.
                The problem with Edelgard is that no one really calls her out on her plan. Actually, it's worse, she is portrayed as smart by the game hence why the game doesn't have good writing.

                It was 100% necessary to unite the land, that was always the main objective.
                In your favourite route she gets Rhea day 1 and still goes on to war, how the hell did you miss that?

                >It was 100% necessary to unite the land, that was always the main objective

                The land didn't need to be united to enact the reformations she desires. Her declaring war upon her neighbors is incredibly risky and could have threatened to undo any of her reformations.

                My point is that it's a shit plan, nobody called her out on it and the game presents it as smart.

                [...]
                She cute and I enjoyed her route, but her complete ignorance about the world and the 2 people who could've offered proper counterarguments to her position devolving into even bigger morons was unintentionally hilarious. And just how hard the plot bends over backwards for Byleth. Don't forget

                >With Byleth dead Edelgard becomes sad and just stays in her room doing paintings all day, losing the war
                >The MOMENT Byleth is recovered she snaps out of it and cleans house faster than any campaign because Edelgard needs her Byleth teddy bear to crush armies like a big girl

                Shit, even in Three Hopes thou MUST forgive Byleth to get the golden endings and if you didn't you only beat him because he was holding back.

                >She cute and I enjoyed her route, but her complete ignorance about the world and the 2 people who could've offered proper counterarguments to her position devolving into even bigger morons was unintentionally hilarious.

                Yeah, Edelgard isn't a well-written character in 3Houses.

                Such an incredibly risky and moronic plan, teaming up with schemers known for scheming who may very well be diligently plotting your downfall once you stop being useful.

          On top of having shit map design which is literally level design, it had shit mechanics like speed threshold for doubling being only 1, dungeon exploring relying on randomly generated encounters in a fricking turn based strategy game, combat arts not being that good if you double anyways, items being limited to one at a time slot per character killing variety on the spot thinking and planning ahead, terrain boosting avoidance centralizing to just using magic.

    I'm playing Engage right now and it's already better than 3H because there is no school bullshit, no monastery bullshit (the Somniel is closer to My Castle than to the Monastery) and most importantly, it doesn't waste your time with Persona-esque calendar and social links.
    Oh and the cutscenes have more than 5fps, they look similar in quality to Awakening/Fates cutscenes which were top tier.

    Didn't know 3H caused this much seethe, rather strange as it is by far the best FE game ever released.
    The flaws it has are minor, and the upgrades to the story are so overwhelming that it's pretty much in a league of its own.
    Edelgard, Dimitri and Claude are all great, but flawed, character and are a lot of fun to interact with. Combine that with the ability to shape your own story and you've got a great, immersive, game.
    Don't even get me started on the art, playing Engage for 30 minutes made me realize what we've lost. I mean, just look at pic related, absolutely horrible.

              I don't really get the people that just give TH a free pass on the story. I thought TH's story was one of it's weak points. The three school paths are almost identical, making replaying the game a real slog, and every single faction's war phase has issues with bad decisions, rushed pacing, bad character motivations to move armies into place (like in Blue Lions route, there is no reason whatsoever for Claude to join the battle between the three armies other than the fact that they decided that had to be present in all of the routes.). The War phase was chock full of bad writing, but I guess everyone just conveniently forgets that because they spent most of the time just enjoying the school section?
              I can't take any of the reviews seriously because every single review that claims Engage has a bad story is directly comparing it to Three Houses, instead of trying to judge it on it's own.

      it doesnt seem that bad. apparently, they changed the s-supports to be less explicit.
      s-support is such a minor part of fe games and it doesnt have any real impact especially in a game that does not have child units.

    In the Berenstein universe, FE ended and Advance Wars became a huge hit, prompting many different iterations, each with deeper and more elaborate tests of tactical skill.

    In the Berenstain universe, FE Awakening "saved" the FE series and led Advance Wars to be neglected, leading to games where choosing waifus and watching hours of meaningless prattle became the order of the day.

    the only new thing I think the game does great is removing durability off of normal weapons. It's still there for staves.

      the whole beginning story feels like this. Unless there is some le ebin twist, I have no hope for the rest of the story. From the reviews, it does not seem like there is any and it's really as straightforward and anime by the numbers as it first appears.

    Why do people say that Conquest's gameplay is good? I felt like all Conquest does is gimp you unless your army is just Corrin+Royals paired up with shitty batteries, which doesn't make for a fun game

    • 1 year ago
      Anonymous

      When people complain about every map being a rout map in Fire Emblem, it's not actually about the objective being "Rout the enemy" but more, "The strategy is to just deathball your army across the map and win." A lot of older Fire Emblem games had secondary objectives and things that could put pressure on the player. Things like bandits going to destroy villages or a thief going to take a chest that incentivize you to play faster and more dangerously. Surprise reinforcements that punish you for leaving your rear undefended, etc.
      Conquest because of the Dragon Veins and just general map design had a lot of interesting and varied gameplay that made you approach maps differently. One map has you chasing someone fleeing so you have to try and rush through the enemies to catch up, but has openable shortcuts available to use. One map has a poison swamp and hidden enemies so you have to manage debuffs more actively. One map has villages in three different directions making you split up your forces if you want to get all of the objectives. These type of maps that avoid the "just deathball across the map" are typically viewed as good gameplay from the community as a whole, and Conquest has a lot of it.

      I mean, I agree with you but it's not fair to compare FE to a Matsuno game. That is why the series was dying before Awakening. That game combined a decent TBS with waifu shit and the autism of breeding to make a game that had something for many types of players.

I'm bringing up a counterpoint in saying that a subpar soundtrack and passable gameplay cannot carry conquest, and that I'm using Final Fantasy Tactics as an example of a game that proves you don't need to sacrifice gameplay for a good story

        Also part of why tactics died is because Tactics Advance was total dogshit and Advance 2 wasn't much better. Even the worst fire emblem games barring revelation blow those two out of the water

            I HAVE played the game myself, on fricking release, on original hardware (not even an sp) that's the fricking problem. I don't mind the fantastical whimsy world, it doesn't need to be grim dark everything fricking sucks. I liked the general tone, and I liked the story itself but Holy frick is the gameplay dogshit Tactics Advance is a chore to play, bereft of challange, but not even a fun game to break like the original. The plot progression felt seemingly fricking random in how you progressed the main story until the end. I had probably fought well over 200 battles, with maybe 3 posing a threat. Laws are also an interesting idea on paper, but an objectively trash system in their implementation

      Mouth tasted so shit after Fates that Awakening was bumped up a point two I’d say. You’re right though in that it’s an aggressively mediocre game overall that has the ‘bonus’ of really kicking off the romance/animeism that has now infected the franchise.

        Nah I'd argue Fates or at least Conquest was better than Awakening. It had a bad story but it at least improved the gameplay like making the map design more tactical and improving on mechanics like pair up no longer being rng and nerfing the stat buffs and had a killer soundtrack.

          I’d say that as well but the immediate reaction to Fates was that the story was atrocious and most people played Birthright first (you know, since the game was split into multiple different games you had to buy lol) which unlike Conquest didn’t even have terribly good gameplay to back it up.

            You’re logic is so contrived and back-ass-ward that it literally makes no sense. You’re saying Awakening is better than Fates because the mechanics being utter broken (as in unintentionally exploitable to the point of ruining any semblance of challenge the game might of had) makes it more fun and because the story was at least decent compared to Fates and then you name Birthright which has an equally mediocre story? Just admit you played Awakening first when it was still being hype to the moon and back and jumped of the Fates hate bandwagon due to the translation fiasco because even you have to concede that you sound incredibly stupid and biased right now

              My guy chill out I was agreeing with you. Just trying to explain why some people might rate Awakening so highly when it’s really not that good. Maybe I was not explaining it well but I agree that Fates (conquest atleast) is a superior game. But many people to date, as you accuse me of, jump hard on Fates and that may make Awakening seem better than it was despite being boring, trite, and ultimately forgettable we’re it not for the whole saving the franchise from death thing.

            Birthright's story wasn't bad. It's only bad when you consider all the paths stories together. Rev and Conquest are where the egregiously bad writing comes in. Birthright basically has awakening tier gameplay and gba tier story

              Birthright's story wasn't a thing. It was worse than bad it was null.

              that isn't even enough to count as having a story.

                Yeah by the book, inoffensive, Fire Emblem story. I didn't say it was good just not significantly bad to be a detriment when compared to many other entries in the series.

      Why does something have to be "balanced" to be good? Awakening offers enough customization to do bat shit builds and that made it fun to replay. I'd take that over a more structured Fire Emblem like PoR anyday. It's like comparing Marvel vs Capcom and Street Fighter II.

        Because it encourages juggernauting which kills the variety of strategy. And don't kid yourself Awakening doesn't offer customization, if you haven't reached level 10 as a second tier class, reclassing DEMOTES you to the first tier one, so you're crippling yourself. And there's how getting skills is dependent on leveling up. It deliberately encourages grinding in skirmishes if you want skills outside of your base class and promotion. At least with 3Hs reclassing doesn't potentially cripple you like that and won't eat up exp just to learn a skill.

      For me it's the unit building. I basically spent a long time building the perfect units and then didn't bother finishing the game for months because they steamrolled everything.

      So while that was fun it's still in my bottom third . Not sure why else you'd put it higher.

        Even then other games do the unit building better. Fates has it so that you don't demote or go back to level 1 after reclassing if you want to learn new skills on top of buddy seals and partner seals offering more options of reclassing. 3Hs has skill learning behind weapon or class experience rather than levels. Tellius had skills scrolls or taking skills from certain characters and putting them on another for a skill learning system that's based on getting reward drops from levels and recruiting units.

    3H was my first FE and I absolutely loved it
    when engage first got leaked I was baffled to see the main character design but I was willing to ignore it as long as it looked good in other areas.
    then they reveal the ring mechanic, which I thought it was very cool especially since I'm a newbie to the series so meeting all the old protagonists sounded amazing
    then the other character designs began to drop, each worse than the last, and finally the leaks confirming this was more gameplay focused (to each their own, the reason why I liked 3H so much was due to the charisma of the group you were with, shit like dedue's fake out death or dimitri becoming more and more savage and finally breaking down after the time skip were very compeling story bits)
    sad to say I now feel like skipping this entirely. the MC design is still fricking garbage and god damn I will not be able to take this game seriously with that clown as my character the entire time.

      For what it's worth the opinions on the character writing seem very mixed for Engage. Some say it's very one-dimensional not as engaging as the 3H cast while others say they were charmed by a number of characters and felt attached to them by their roles in the gameplay

      I think it will be like Awakening where you may love some of the cast but there will be a lot of one-note tropey duds and the story probably won't be anything to write home about and Alear themselves will probably be one of the most forgettable protagonists.

        maybe I'm just being petty since characters like dimitri are right up my alley so I doubt engage can top BL. I still think the MC is a goddamn eyesore though. Like what the frick were they thinking.

    One route no choice games make picking who to use kind of flat, though.
    For example, is anyone here NOT going to use the princess mage who gets a map wide teleport + attack as a basic Engage move?
    I didn't think so.

      The gameplay is fine but not amazing so far. I WILL say at least the map design with the forts and the need to hold certain areas make it seems like I will FINALLY be able to use Heavy Knights for fricking once.

    I hate it. This is such bullshit. I obviously have to play defensively because the enemy spawns a wave of 20 units but I can't because no matter the chokepoint they just assrape anyone with their quasi-siege tomes.
