Ratings and reviews

As a longtime Fire Emblem, I found the game rather disappointing. Maybe it's still in the experimental stage, but if you play the originals, you might not like this one. Your characters move automatically towards the enemy target rather being able to guide them and plan your movements. No character growth—at least not from what I've played so far—that make the original game great. I don't speak for everyone and people may like it, but I, personally don't think it's a Fire Emblem game.

The game looks great, menuing is super smooth, combat is fun but repetitive right out the gate. Within the first 5 minutes you get the gist and every time you play it just feels like grinding. The story is fine as what is currently out. Not a story that's so enticing it would make you stay around. Really fun game...for the first day. Looks great though and plays really nice. And it's free, so can't complain too much. The game is still new so I expect it to only get better.

For a Fire Emblem entry, this game was pretty interesting in concept. The game is a fun player vs player experience, but sadly that's all it is. The story is essentially a visual novel that you have to engage in pvp to unlock and the daily login rewards are almost not worth logging in for. I understand that the game just came out, but as of right now, there's not much reason for me to play. I might change my review later if the game adds more modes to play than just pvp and training quests.
