Such a disappointment from the previous title, Gaiden took everything that made the first game good and threw it out the window, having very large tedious maps of mostly walking, enemies that either pose no threat at all, or forced grinding (depends on the difficulty you pick at the start of the game) the new item system could have been interesting, but the game lacks enough of said items to end up just being wasted potential. It gets one extra star for the music, but that's it.
Certainly an interesting Fire Emblem game. It definitely feels more refined from the original game, mostly due to the axing of inventories in general. If you want to experience this game, you should really just play Echoes. Or, if you want to say that you've played every Fire Emblem game, fine. It's at least more bearable than Fire Emblem 1.
