Fire Emblem Awakening
First off, I didn't post this in the official FE thread because of possible spoilers and things like that. I don't want to know anything specific about the games story or anything.
I normally do a lot of research before I buy anything and games are no exception. I make sure what I buy will be worth the price. Yet, I sometimes get hyped and buy a game simply because people are saying its good. I did this twice on the Wii and regretted both purchases immensely. (The first was Metroid Prime 3 Corruption and the second was Conduit 2 in case anyone cared to know) I don't want to make that same mistake again.
I never played a Fire Emblem game before until yesterday when I tried the FEA demo. My impressions are below.
- Nice graphics and 3D
- Interesting story so far and wanted to know more
- Very easy (I am more of a casual gamer though. Metroid was way too difficult for me and I didn't understand the story at all)
- Repetitive gameplay (Move your guys + Attack + Watch cutscene, and repeat)
- Is Marth a girl?
- I had fun playing the demo and was disappointed when it said "too be continued" yet, wasn't entirely convinced that I wouldn't get board after a while.
Some of My favorite games series are Animal Crossing, Mario, (All with Paper being my favorite) Resident Evil, Pikmin, LittleBigPlanet, Super Smash Bros, and Wii Series if that helps.
So based off of the above information, is the Fire Emblem series right for me? Specifically, would I enjoy Awakening?
