I played this game quite a bit on my brother's files in the early to mid 2000s. I didn't know wtf I was doing I was too young and didn't know how to read yet. It is funny how I pretty much remember every single chapter myself though just from my brother letting me play, even though myself I only ever got to chapter 4 or 5.

Just beat it at 1:53 am:

wow this was fucking amazing. The game was very challenging, then got easier after the first arena level where I evolved a bunch of units and leveled up my lords to 20 which I thought mightve ruined the game for me, but then it really did get challenging again, all the way to the last level which was actually really fucking hard lol

That was one of the most satisfying endings of all time. I'm surprised it actually tells you what every single character ended up doing after the fact.

I do remember vaguely almost every single part of the game from watching my brother play as a kid, but apparently he didn't actually beat the game and I see why. Only the very end was completely new to me and it was really fucking cool.

I'm so glad eliwood and ninian got to be together after all

I'm so glad I finally played this as a real conscious being who knows how to read
