In a series of posts, I intend to break down the story, chapter by chapter and then give my thoughts on what the story is trying to accomplish as well as its value as a “series celebration”. It would be easy to throw in a comment here and there across multiple discussion threads to voice my general critiques, but like Fates before it, Engage is really going to need something more comprehensive to get at the heart of its issues. And while a story is more than its faults (Three Houses is equal parts frustrating and brilliant) the good parts have to put the work in to salvage the rest. I opted to watch a playthrough on Youtube and I have some opinions about the writing you might find spicy, a solid “3” with a single chili pepper mark on your curry menu. Still, I like Fire Emblem, so I wanted to be informed when it came to discussions about what this game actually contributed to the series. Having enjoyed Three Houses and Three Hopes, even with their flaws, I can say the prelaunch promotion for FE17 didn’t inspire confidence for me, and ultimately I decided I didn’t want to buy the game. 13th, 2023 editionĮarlier this year we were invited to engage with Fire Emblem’s newest mainline title, and it’s probably fair to say that it has received a mixed reception with some hailing it as a fun, refreshing romp of an adventure and others holding the opinion that it’s Fates 2: Electric Boogaloo.
