#I don't hate FE5 but looool that shit is enough to make plenty of people just straight up rage quit

I like Engage, but I’m so tired 3Hs being made out to be this unplayable mess for shit other games did before it. No weapon triangle? Gaiden. Big maps? FE4 Hub world between maps? That had been getting bigger with each game. Rewind? Echoes. Breaking the game open? Every fucking game has that one unit or skill and it’s a choice; no one put a gun to your head. You don’t have to LTC a map and actually play it as intended. If it ain’t about part 1 being tedious on replays and the graphics, stfu. Ugh

Oops, I forgot to add that Fates did the the route split and Echoes had combat arts first. The map reuse in 3Hs is pretty bad too even with the story reasons trying to justify it so that criticism is valid.

People are just looking for poor excuses to hate on Houses now because there's a new game out.

Did Awakening have a weapon triangle, or even Fates? I don't recall them having it.

FE8 also did the route split and nobody hated it for that so lol.

I'm probably the only person around who prefers weapon durability but I do (also something not new to Engage as far as not having it lol). I'd rather have the money I need for what I want/need rather than no durability on my weapons and suffering for money. FE4 had a perfect balance because all weapons have 50 uses and could be repaired, so even though weapon choice was limited, the amount of money you could get overall per unit wasn't even that bad and you also had plenty of use out of your weapons. Not all, but most staves also had fifty uses.

For some reason FE9 said lolzies at Armorslayers and gave it 18 uses instead of just rounding it off to 20 lmao. Still bugs me to this day.

Personally yeah I hate the graphics for Houses, but that's more on the team that worked on it and less regarding the actual game itself. The content within the game is still great and it doesn't make me want to play it less. Typically I can ignore the backgrounds easily enough - it's just the anti-aliasing not being present that makes the models look bad close up. Hopes had that problem very very mildly but they definitely fixed it quite a lot in comparison.

I also like Engage, it's just not a top favorite of mine. I do like the characters for the most part, but I way prefer Houses' cast. The gameplay is fine, but I find it... oddly tedious sometimes? If Houses had a problem with being tedious, Engage isn't any better lol. FE4's hub world was perfectly sized imo and made it extremely easy to navigate everything you wanted to do, and you could also return to it within the chapter and go back to the arena or buy different weapons as you pleased. Also, even though every character has their own money, you still get plenty more money in FE4 than in Engage lol. It's also crazy to me going from Engage to FE9/PoR because PoR pays you for being a mercenary which is a perfect tie in to the story, so you get paid per chapter.

I break the Tellius games open with Oscar. :) :') He's the best unit in all of FE history and I don't take criticism. :))) :DDD

Houses is nowhere near an unplayable mess and neither is Engage. If people really didn't enjoy it that much, they shouldn't have continued to play it and just dropped it. Personally I found Houses to be more interesting on the map because you could zoom in and see the map outside of a grid view. Engage's camera pisses me off lol.

If Houses is an unplayable mess, then my name is FE5 Escape Map Where You Only Escaped With the Main Character and Nobody Else, Thinking Your Army Would Be Right Behind You Like In FE9, Except You Were Wrong and Now You Only Have One Unit For the Next Map. My last name is Unfortunately the Game Gives You Zero Indication That You Have to Actually Escape the Map With All Your Units So Frankly If You Saved Over That File After Escaping Without the Rest of Your Units Before Realizing This Then You're Fucked and Have To Restart Your Entire Fucking Game.

All that only to have to restart the hardest game in the series. :) :')
