Well, I didn't play Fates yet (and what I've read overall from players is not that good), but Awakening was a critical and commercial success, and is still my biggest video games disappointment.... Maybe ever?
The cost of turning a niche game into a popular one has been far too heavy for some original fans. Fire Emblem post-Awakening is basically a different series, too much changes and almost a different genre (at least a different focus, not on strategy and the battles anymore but on the eugenics/harem management). Fates Conquest is supposed to be closer to a real FE, so I'll maybe play it when it comes to EU. But yes, I can understand why someone would call Fates a disappointment.
