Almost everything in Engage feels like a step back from what FE games are usually able to land with ease, and I actively balked at continuing the game for a solid month upon seeing the opening for Chapter 14. About the only good experience I had with this game was getting through Chapter 10/11 – that was the only time where I felt “Okay, Engage is actually trying to do something interesting now” and the various elements of the game actually came together in a satisfying way. Past that point, nothing really worked for me.

Having completed Engage, I can confidently say it is the most disappointing FE game I've ever played (besides FEH), and it was definitely not worth my time.
