My personal favorite is Path of Radiance. It was a title I played as a kid and loved every moment of it. It had great characters, fun gameplay, great villains, good music, and the best lord in the whole series. This game is just excellence. Radiant Dawn follows behind, as it's just a massive sequel to PoR, but I think goes a bit far on difficulty and is a veery long game. It's not one I can recommend to people, unless they're FE veterans. Still very excellent, with a very underappreciated Lord, Micaiah.
Here's my list for reference.
1. Path of Radiance
2. Radiant Dawn
3. Blazing Sword
4. Fire Emblem Fates (not splitting yet)
5. Awakening
6. Sacred Stones
7. Binding Blade
Dance my pretties!
