I played it shortly after Engage and immediately realized how much more fun I had with it. Sure, the story doesn't win any prizes for originality, but at least it's not half as stupid as in Engage^^ You even have some political machinations and complex characters who struggle with themselves and their own actions. I really liked the dynamic between Eliwood, Lyn and Hector, they were very cool characters with some well written and humorous dialog. The difficulty level fluctuated a lot, sometimes I rolled through the missions like a wrecking ball and at other times I was killed by a single enemy attack :D The support system is garbage and not at all self-explanatory, but it wasn't that important. Generally you spend a bit too much time in menus, but hey, it's Fire Emblem. Overall, I really liked it.
