I cannot, in good conscience, give a rating to a game I have not played. But it’s a common habit of mine, whenever anything surrounding a game comes out, to check parts of it out via videos. I’ve done this with a lot of games, the Fire Emblem series being a franchise I have done this a multitude of times with. Three Houses did tempt me with its narrative and characters, but I ultimately resisted getting any further into Fire Emblem than, as Louis would put it, observing from afar. I’m not here for the gameplay, most certainly not the story in this case. The look of the world and the cast, both equally colorful, are what drew me to this entry. Regardless of what people may think of toothpaste-ch- I mean, Alear’s design, I think it is what makes them stand out amongst the sea of other fire emblem MCs. Whether that is for better or worse is up to the individual, though. A dark and gritty narrative this is not, but that shouldn’t have to be a bad thing. To put it lightly, everyone in this game is batshit insane in one way or another, including the protagonist, and I think that’s delightful. Not a single normal soul in that entire army. It has it all, muscleheads, peeping toms, fratbros (ARROOOO), Yunaka, truly a cast to remember.
