Despite my gripes with it competitively, it truly is a really well done love letter to gaming and celebration of Nintendo's IPs alongside a few more. However, the issues in gameplay are very apparent. The game feels very limiting compared to others and the roster feels very samey, but still not bad.
A great cast of characters matched with an interesting story and solid gameplay that serves as a good introduction for people into the Fire Emblem franchise. it did unfortunately cause a lot of harm to how some people viewed the franchise, and it doesn't create a story as deep as it wishes, along with the gameplay being subpar compared to some other entries in the franchise, but still a good solid game.
My personal pinnacle of the COD franchise. The gunplay is fantastic, the UI and style of the game is clean and not cluttered, the campaign is interesting and tells a wonderful story with a lot of gameplay variety. The only real miss is the zombies, but along with some of its missed potential it brought some of the best maps in the franchise.
My 2nd Fire Emblem game after 3 Houses, and my definitive favorite. The pair up system allowed for virtually any unit to be good and allowed you to break the game, while still being fun enough on hard and lunatic to warrant complex strategies and decision making. The characters were fun and the support system felt fully fleshed out, and while the story was a bit generic, it was still an enjoyable ride with some really hard hitting moments.

I could rant about the balancing, or the weird dev team with weird changes, but the game still has a lot of charm to it, with the amount of killers and survivors, licensed and original, and the amount of build variety you can have with your characters. Still an enjoyable game to play, but best steer clear if you don't know how to deal with toxicity.

While the humor in the game hasn't aged well, and the story is lacking (or nonexistent), it's still a plenty fun game that keeps the spirit of couch co-op alive even years later. The button mashy fun, easy to get into gameplay, and 4 player local multiplayer create a fantastic experience for your friends.

Definitely felt rushed coming from FNaF 1, and isn't as great as people say it was. The withered designs were solid, but the Toy designs still had issues. The cast of characters felt very samey, and the story telling was ok here but just wasn't as good as the first game. The music box was a terribly implemented mechanic and so was the mask. All in all a whole bunch of wasted potential.
