Even if they could, Fire Emblem isn't known for their characters for a reason.

Assuming you're implying that characters in the Fire Emblem franchise don't have much depth, I have to strongly disagree with this statement. As a long time veteran of the franchise, part of what I find so appealing about it is watching the characters develop, both through supports and the in-game story. Characters that appear only skin-deep are shown to be much more complicated the more you play. Awakening is one thing, as it clearly focused on the breadth of supports over depth. It's not necessarily a bad thing, considering the sim aspect the game was trying to accomplish, but I'd also firmly argue that this is the exception and not the rule for the franchise. 

TLDR: Fire Emblem has some great character development, if you put the time into playing the games.

We'll just have to disagree. I think just about every Fire Emblem character is absolutely paper thin, the strong point of the game isn't plot. It's gameplay.

I've played the two GBA games, Shadow Dragon, Path, and Awakening. There are plenty of characters I liked, but I wouldn't say any of the games had good character development. This'll be way off topic, but feel free to keep going over PM or wall convos if you want . I'll also say that telling someone they didn't look hard enough for something after playing and beating the game is a pretty terrible argument.

I also loathe Serene's Forest. I wouldn't force that place on anyone.

To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
