Likely the first Fire Emblem game for many (myself included), Blazing Blade (or FE7) is a perfect introduction to the franchise thanks to its simple and straightforward systems. Unlike most modern FE entries, Blazing Blade has no reclassing (each character has a set class and promotion) and no skill system, meaning that you won't spend hours thinking about how to build your heroes and, instead, you'll just focus on how to best use them during battle. FE7's story is also pretty straightforward but, thanks to a fun cast, quite enjoyable. Recommended.
