As a longtime Fire Emblem, I found the game rather disappointing. Maybe it's still in the experimental stage, but if you play the originals, you might not like this one. Your characters move automatically towards the enemy target rather being able to guide them and plan your movements. No character growth—at least not from what I've played so far—that make the original game great. I don't speak for everyone and people may like it, but I, personally don't think it's a Fire Emblem game.

This is a very fun game, but there isn't much to it. I feel like im fighting against bots. Acquiring the characters were fairly easy, which was also kind of boring. This game could do better, if they made some changes. If not, people will get bored fast. Maybe take a page from Netmarble games, they are pretty addicting. ex. 7ds grand cross.

DO NOT LET YOUTUBERS STOP YOU FROM TRYING A FREE GAME. I've had a lot of fun with this one so far, the strategy is light but learning the ins and outs of battle phases and magic feels very rewarding when you get the hang of it. Timing is extremely important. My favorite aspect is that there is ZERO gacha involved, only end-battle reward RNG. All I've seen is clickbait telling people not to play this, and I don't think that's fair.
