Enjoying Three Hopes so far. I stand by my initial complaints in the story from the demo. In a lot of ways, the narrative kind of goes against some of the themes in Three Houses. In that game, the House leaders and Rhea will all go off the deep end without Byleth's influence (except Claude really). Here, they're all kind of rational and moderate so far. And, without spending time in the academy, you don't have bonds with the characters, so it's not a huge emotional deal fighting against them on the battlefield. Even though I came in knowing them from three Houses, it feels different. Even if I had attachment to them in Three Houses, I haven't spent time with them this playthrough, so the feels are weaker, if that makes sense. May just be me though. All that said, it's a perfectly fun game. The Warriors format is still fun. There were some changes made to both the Warrior and Fire Emblem aspects that are improvments on either. For instance, being able to train in classes I'm not currently equipped with is a great addition, and is more intuitive than Three Houses skill level system. And while the overall story is kind of meh, it's still fun to see all of the character interactions, particularly between some characters who weren't together much in the game. We'll see how things finish up, but of the three Warriors games I've played (the Nintendo ones minus age of calamity) this is my favorite so far. ... I'm genuinely confused as to what there is making you say uh oh. |
