The battle against Lonado wasn't portrayed in a heroic light in any way, and already the game is showing a more gray perspective on war, something the series used to be great at but kind of felt forgotten over the last few entries. Trying to attack Lonado with Ashe, only to find the boss refuses to fight back, was just heartbreaking.
Honestly, assuming the story doesn't shit itself as it goes on, this will probably dethrone Radiant Dawn and enter my top 3 FE games. Say what you want about the school life setting, but this game definitely takes the setting seriously, and easily is the best world-building since Tellius. Persona Emblem it is definitely not. |
I'm right near the end of my first route (one of the Black Eagle routes) and the story hasn't slowed down, nor tripped up at all. The world building and storytelling remains fantastic throughout. This is not just my favourite FE, but now my equal favourite game of all time, they've smashed this out of the park.
