Probably the most fun I've had playing a Fire Emblem game, while the story and characters take a massive backseat and are hilariously bland aside from a points near in the end (though not as bad as Fates' cast and story) though it's somewhat charming and puts more of a focus onto the real star: the gameplay.

The weapon triangle actually matters in this game making team balancing actually important, infantry units are no longer inferior to cavalry due to Chain Attacks, and the Emblems add such a cool element to the game, allowing you to bring your own bullshit in the same vein as the bosses furthering the strategy and difficulty.

To be hoenst, the only part of this game I didn't like was the Somneil, it's kinda funny how little there is to do with it to the point where it's questionable why it was even included. Not to say it's outright useless but it feels close to it.
