What a fantastic trailer, holy shit.
I’m actually trying to resist… too much backlog. But I NEED this. I don’t even typically enjoy FE games and barely start them when I try… but for some reason I am obsessed with this game. Must have watched 10+ reviews and eat up anything I can find about it… I actually can’t understand WHY.

This game has surpassed my expectations, having a blast with it so far!

How different is this game from three houses? I couldn’t really get into the school stuff in that game.

Can anyone farther in comment on the story. I watched the first few hours on a Let’s Play, and I got the impression that it was a very by-the-numbers, stock JRPG fantasy story about a chosen one and an evil dragon. Really bounced off it hard, unfortunately, but wanted to check to see if it gets any better further into the game or if things kind of stay on those rails throughout.

RIP, gamestop sent me a shipment notification now it says awaiting product availability on the actual order page. Guessing they oversold the divine edition preorders.
Really solid looking trailer.

Any idea how good the story would be? I loved the story in FE3H and was hoping engage would also have a strong plot.

I understand the red/blue hair is probably because most all previous Fire Emblem main characters have either red or blue hair and they want the main character of this game to embody both, but I think it would have been way cooler if they went with chromatic hair that looks red or blue depending on the angle instead of the toothpaste hair look (which looks much better on the long female hair, though).

I’ve never played a Fire Emblem game, is this a good place to start?

the “Engage!” part was a bit cringy, but besides that, damn, I need this game!

I’m loving playing this game so far

Played a few hours last night and I would agree with reviewers saying the story is not the greatest. From the very start you’ll notice the less “mature” tone of this game when compared to the previous entry.
Thankfully the combat is insanely good and I’m having a blast working through the levels. Graphics are great and are a step up. Art style is slightly more cartoony than 3 houses.

This is the best looking game on Switch right now.

This has got to be the best-looking best-running game I have played on the Switch in a very long time

This is quite different from 3 houses, and so far it’s pretty great. They throw you into combat fast and pretty quickly thereafter, it’s nice not having to sit through long dialog. The music is very different from 3 houses, it’s almost 90’s anime vibe like which is interesting. Definitely takes some getilting used to compared to 3 houses.

Looks like a good fire emblem game stuck inside a 12 year old weebs wet dream

Instead of noble heroic orchestral music like old FE games, they use cheesy 80s music for Engage. They also cut budget on animations. Characters just stand there talking, if there’s action – they use an image. Either they don’t have the time to do the animations, or Nintendo is being cheapskate – trying to cut cost.

I want this but I have a huge backlog of TTRPGs, literally just got Sparks of Hope and Tactics Ogre, still chewing through 3 Houses and Triangle Strategy too. I’ve also got Xcom 2 and Wargroove sitting unplayed on my library for months.

I was rather excited for this game but the art style and colours schemes they went with are so not for me, god. I guess I’m gonna skip til the next instalment

Alear’s hair should change based on which joycons you have connected to your Switch when you start the playthrough. This is the hill I will die on.

I’ve played through Chapter 1 and it’s gorgeous and so much more fluid than Three Houses ever was. Glad I picked it up for £39.
