So I am about 9 hours in so far, on chapter 5 doing the Black Eagles route, and I am having trouble getting invested in it. Fire Emblem Three Houses is in my top 10, I spent 440 hours in Fodlan. I loved almost everything about the game. I always thought it would be amazing to get a Warriors spin-off set in Fodlan, and when we were first shown this game in February, I was beyond excited.
My initial hope for Three Hopes was for it to be an alternate story where all Three Houses combine for a 'good ending' for all the lead characters. But the way that it is split into three again, it just feels like a much inferior alternative to Three Houses. So far, I just feel like important plot points in Three Houses are revealed so quickly it feels insignificant. I don't quite feel the stakes that I felt playing Three Houses.
Also kind of disappointed by the lack of S-support conversations... I know it is a trivial complaint. But it seems strange to not include it.
Gameplay wise this does not disappoint at all. I have loved this style of game since I was introduced with Hyrule Warriors. I hope to see more Nintendo IP get the Warriors treatment.
Maybe I am being too critical. I am only on chapter 5 so far. Maybe it ends well... But those are just my thoughts.
What are your thoughts on this game?
