I started this a week after the game first came out, now 4 years later and more than 150 hours I have completed all three routes(im not doing church route) Its a fantastic game to play through, and the intrigue at the first part really makes you crave for more. Although, playing through the first half three times becomes tiring. Edelgard and Dimitri are really good foils of each other and really highlight their ideals. Golden deer route is the best route tho.
