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.

As something very different from most Fire Emblem games, I've greatly enjoyed it, in spite of its poor reception from hardcore fans. The game strips away the traditional core elements of the series, , including Turn- based command & movement in favor of a fast paced real time action system. Success favors keen observation and prioritization of abilities & targets. It's unlike anything the series has done before, but it's also uniquely fun & I hope fans can look past their own expectations.

Not a bad game, the story is really fun so far and I enjoy the way the combat works- my main issue is with how glitchy the game can be. I've had it crash multiple times before with no underlying reason, the audio sometimes glitches out if I connect my headset to my phone (with other apps being completely fine), and there's just other issues I've seen people complain about too. Good game, just really needs some general fixes in order to help stop a lot of these problems.
