🔥 fire emblem. if ur feeling generous, one opinion per game u have played, if not thats fine

ok generous answer under the cut akfvkffgfjk

shadow dragon: maybe not the most aesthetically pleasing, but unironically the most charming sprites in the series. i want to feel again what og smug cain made me feel when i first saw him.

old/new mystery: om is so much prettier than nm. if i had to replay a mystery id replay the older one. like theres no kris and the sprites are much more dynamic and the portraits are better and theres something so charming about it that fe12 couldnt replicate

echoes/gaiden: ok definitely not an unpopular opinion here in tumblr but in other fe communities i guess but celica was just a million times better than alm. she made stupid mistakes but like. he was literally perfect. he had no flaws bc they removed his ONLY flaw in gaiden (that he was too trigger happy) like. at least celica was well rounded and allowed to be human. honestly i felt avatar vibes with alm he could do no wrong and had faye like OHjhjh alm… just terrible

genealogy: overrated in every way but world building and plot. the characters are… not that good even if i adore a couple of them. worldbuilding and plot do kinda live up to the hype but its just not a memorable cast and for me characters are very important in fe

binding blade: probably one of my least favourite fe games tbqh. the plot is fairly exposition heavy and boring with roy/merlinus/guinevere over and over and i just dont feel this cast at all except for the lords (YES LILINA IS A LORD) and karel bc he fucks. a couple of minor characters like lucius’ kids and echidna are nice but the rest are 1:1 archanea archetypes. im probably in the minority that wants the remake to be tweaked immensely, if we get a 1:1 remake ill be disappointed

blazing blade: people say hector > eliwood for the wrong reasons fr… like the more i grow up the more i realize hes like. a huge power fantasy even tho i still love him for how he grows up to be in fe6 and his nicer moments in fe7

sacred stones: the royals are all super interesting but im eh about everyone else (excxept tethys). magvel cast is one of the most beloved and i see people hyping like. the minor characters and and i just cant relate. mayhaps i need a replay but 🤷‍♀️

tellius: oh boy my favourite fe game but i still hate how it handled race. furry civil rights but the one recurring black character is a caricature. ok tellius. very stinky of you.

awakening: i think it doesnt deserve the hate it gets in like ‘elitist’ circles. maybe its legacy but the game itself is ok. its by far one of the most fun fe games and it deserves some credit for revitalizing a series that was tbf starting to get a little tedious gameplay wise. i still hate what it did to the franchise re: shipping, children, avatars, etc. but ylisse was probably one of the most fun times ive had w a fe game and i still hope we can channel that fun into something actually good like a tellius-level plot

fates: i hate the weapon system in this game. its one of the few things people praise about it and i want it to burn in a fire. i dont have time to learn which weapons do which debuffs fates. go get a plot instead of wasting my time

3h: it is just………………………………… not very good. even verdant wind which is my fave route is starting to show all the cracks under any real scrutiny. this game needed to be delayed bc being rushed Shows and its legitimately like people admiring a cardboard cutout of a car… it looks nice from afar but thats it
