      The second they said that I thought, "This is gonna hurt." I didn't know just how right I was. Not only was their story painful, but there was everyone else, each suffering in their own way. Clive, loosing his best friend, Fernand, willing to do anything to follow his ideals only to realise that he was wrong as he was dying in the arms of the friend he'd betrayed, Rinea, the innocent woman killed because she trusted too much, the Divine Dragons, loosing first eachother, then themselves, Berkut, loosing everything, his ideals, his future, his love, his life, and even himself, because his whole story had been a lie. And the end, leaving us with the reminder that evil will always return to destroy us. This entire game was beyond sad. I don't even know how many times I cried playing it.

    The SoV was what I believe to be the great transition period from the revival games of Fates and Awakening, to the deep, narrative driven games that Fire Emblem could produce. From voice acting, a real story, and new mechanics, SoV stepped up the franchise in many ways.

    • @hyperm8

      Yeah, I thought Three Houses introduced many mechanics but it was actually SoV that introduced Combat Arts, the new magic mechanic and moving around as a character (although this was in dungeons only for SoV.) It really did step up the franchise and I love this game so much.

I like swords as well which made me love the medieval aspect of Fe. I only found out about Echoes like last year, then i got the game 4 months ago. Tbh i didn't finish playing fates (because of fanservice) although i spoiled myself for those the game. Echoes stood out to me the most considering its a remake of Gaiden. I wanted to know what past games were like. Awakening will always be close to heart because it brought back the series. But Echoes would be one. With fates and the houses clashing for 3rd

    I love how alms sword is raised, symbolizing war and conflict, rising to the challenge, with the symbol of faith behind him, her eyes closed as she desperately clings to her hope that it all is a lie. Celica is also alma past, showing that alm has put who he was away for the greater good, having lost faith in a peaceful resolution, and later on losing faith that things can ever be normal again, this loss of faith is also why alms eyes are open, since he sees it all for what it clearly is. Celica's eyes is closed because she is cling to a hope that is no longer possible, and a faith that will not serve her, she is devoted to her cause, but it is nonetheless a vain one because Mila is gone and Duma has gone mad. She is also blind to their mistakes, her faith idolizing Mila as a perfect goddess and not the flawed dragon she actually is. Alm rises to the challenge accepting responsibilities he would not be expected to carry out where as Celica runs, chasing after a god who will solve her problems. Their duality brilliant brings the theme of it all together. Faith must work hand in hand with reality, never misplace it, and always make sure to take control of your destiny. I would argue that besides three houses it has the strongest narrative, it has the most realistic characters for its setting, which have excellent voice acting that I would dare say is better than 3 houses, and its presentation is easily one of the best in all of fire emblem, with its overworld and character designs giving the most unique impression I have felt in the franchise. While map design is lacking, and its combat doesnt help, further compounded by a lack of difficulty (due to combat being badly balanced), it still manages to remain a solid gameplay experience, and is far from the worst, with its narrative and characters doing a lot of heavy lifting, which is problematic since most FE fans dont focus on those elements as much as the gameplay, meaning it could only do so much. I would reccomend this game hands down, have not seen a fire emblem as intriguing as this one, and I love it for it.

    If I had to rank the 3DS FEs I'd say: Echoes>Awakening>Conquest>Revalations>BIrthright. Don't get me wrong I still liked Fates, but overall it was just a good strategy game that failed with Atmosphere,Story,Character Presentation, lore, and especially world building,. In a way, Fates (Conquest specially) was everything Echoes wasn't; it had great gameplay but the presentation was so,so, soooooo unbelievably bad. In Echoes, I cared about the characters because they all had personalities, they had families they want to return to, dreams and goals they want to accomplish, they had lives of their own and it helped that the voice acting gave them so much more personality (not to mention the lore and overall feel of the world was AMAZING).
    Conquest on the other hand challenges players through its gameplay but sadly, the game was one big blur to me; I don't remember the order of the chapters but I remember the maps overall. I remember the characters portraits in Conquest but I never cared for them. They were just units who I checked and vouched their statistical skill growths, the world wasnt amazing and after midway of the game I pretty much skipped the story overall. I didn't care for supports and I only paired characters who I thought were good parents for a child unit. And while the game had decent supports, I didn't care enough for their characters to actually be moved by characters
    People can groan over Echoes bad maps but it wasn't even a quarter as bad as Fates overall worldbuilding,story, characters, and presentation was. Besides, I thought some part of Echoes presented something of a challenge: e.g: If you want to get the Dracoshield from Desaix, Berkut's final map, Grieth's map was somewhat a challenge, etc.. One more thing about Fates was I keep forgetting the song titles like really, Awakening had RIDICULOUS (like "Agh won goph in mah mouph") song titles but I somehow remember them all more than Fates which had pretty generic song titles. Nevertheless the 3ds generation were solid entries but I happen to think Echoes is just the better and it paved way to Three Houses which was just so good.
    It's such a shame though, Echoes could've made the dungeon maps hard so it presented a challenge and still be faithful to the original Gaiden but meh, it turned out well mainly
