The three split paths was interesting, the leaders of red, blue and yellow were fun personalities but had radical flaws too, and training your units as a teacher at a school was a fun way to rationalize why most of the characters in your army were teenagers. It also had some great DLC.

FW is slop BECAUSE Three Houses did well. They saw that shitty combat design just didn't matter because their new giant audience doesn't care and is more interested in shipping characters
>>
>>748600465
They learned all the wrong lessons from it.

Schooling your students in the direction you wanted them to develop was a clever way to make the teacher role in TH feel meaningful. It wasn't just a reason to let you date the girls, it actually had a very core mechanical purpose that felt natural.
FW also split the story in 3, but the 3 parties in TH always attended the same school and events into the late-game and even had their own combined Scooby-Doo adventure in the DLC so they never felt disconnected even when you as the protagonist didn't chose their class. In FW you pick one story and barely acknowledge that the other stories take place. It feels more like a SaGa game in that regard and people who like Fire Emblem and people who like SaGa shit don't overlap much.
>>
Honestly it ended on the Gamecube for me. The DS/3DS era was when I realized that they were pretty dry for new and interesting plots, and had instead gone the waifu-direction, hoping character drama and sluts would keep the games afloat.
Fortune's Weave looks like it's banking on the lefty audience with all these brownies ansd strong women and I shan't partake in Japan's downfall.
>>
>>748604037
>Fortune's Weave looks like it's banking on the lefty audience
Pretty much all Japanese media is leaning on the non-existant lefty audience. The west is slowy, VERY slowly, starting to realize that wokeslop with fags, minorities and ugly women doesn't sell but since Japan is years behind on everyting it'll take them a long time to come to this conclusion.

Fortune's weave is head and shoulders above the rest of this entire retarded franchise. It's truly criminal it has to be tarnished by the name fire emblem.
I don't give a shit about your cuck fantasies and waifu whining. Your skin color mania and impotent screeching. Especially from toothpaste faggots. Fire emblem is a fundamentally flawed series. It is impossible to balance random level ups. The only solution to avoid softlock is to make the player's characters OP. This plaguing feature means that every single FE on every single imaginable difficulty is retard proof easy. It has to be otherwise a softlock could brick a 60+ hour playthrough by sheer cold hard math.
Finally, FE has embraced its potential and gone full bore into epic storytelling and narratives. Playing to its strengths of massive rosters full of likeable characters and high stakes drama. The FE gameplay formula remains for the faithful retards, and there are plenty of retards. There are retards that would claim to this day that SMT as a franchise is difficult and a circle venn diagram of FE retards that think FE is difficult.

>It is impossible to balance random level ups.

Did you know that you can beat most games in the series with 0% growths. You can theoretically never gain a single point in level ups and you can still beat the game.

It was never a game design issue, it has always been a skill issue. You're just bad at the "Strategy" part of the strategy game.
>>
Fortune's Weave did exactly what it was suppose to do: Cater exclusively to fans of Three Houses. The majority of 3H fans don't really play Fire Emblem but enjoy the day to day life in the Monstary like they did with Persona and the story/characters.
The only flaw with the game is that it's on a five hundred dollar paper weight. With some witch magic you could probably get the game to run on the Switch 1 but Nintendo has consoles to sell.

>>748605703
You're bad at reading comprehension. You're supporting my argument. The games have to be designed to avoid softlock which makes the ceiling for difficulty they can provide too low. In truth there is no way to design a game with fixed stats to be challenging and rewarding. Fixed options are inherently not skilled decision making. You need variance and player choice in decision making to create an actually skillful game. FE stat variance is the worst possible variance you can introduce because it cannot be balanced in a way that effects player decision making in a meaningful way. Even dynamic stat adjustment for the enemy would be a terrible solution. At the end of the day that just turns a fight into a shitty chess puzzle. The issues are baked into the format itself. I truly have no idea how the fuck anyone would design an actually difficult and worthwhile to engage with (very intended) game using FEs core mechanics. I really think it's simply not possible. Which is why FW deserves all the more praise for its story execution. That's the only good thing FE has that can be improved on.

Sacred Stones, Tracia and Blade whatever are the only good ones.

TH only resonated with new fans because there were a bunch of sad children who did nothing but trauma dump every single chance they got. The plot was just coherent enough for people to feels as though they were justified for either overthrowing the church (and committing imperialism, but it's all ok because a cute anime girl was sad according to twitter leftists), fighting toxic masculinity (lol), or combating racism (which never happens). And you, the player, was always right, with nothing ever challenging your beliefs.

Combine that with a heaping dose of "omg this character is LITERALLY me!!!", and you have a guaranteed success.

I feel that 3h had the right amount of characterization vs meme shit. loved how every character had little stories that slowly became interwoven with the larger plot of the game. each house was tightly written to the point it felt like you were welcomed into a small family. early on the monastery and other activities are fun and don't overstay their welcome (unlike FW that spams shit just to pad the game from the beginning). and lastly, besides the woke at least 3h hadn't jumped the fucking shark by then

>>748606590
I couldn't enjoy Engage until I tried the uncensored patch. Holy shit did treehouse gut what little integrity the game had. It's funny too because Three Houses mostly got off scot free aside from Bernie's BDSM support. I've heard no complaints about censorship in Fortune's Weave, mostly because it was sterilized from the start. No lolis, tons of brown people, arodengious main character.

Fire Emblem games were always catered towards the Japanese first until Three Houses. Makes me wonder if jewish ethics committees hit Nintendo back in 2018 right when woke was starting to kick off.

I'll go further and say that this is why no one plays western shit too.
It might have better gameplay, but everyone looks like a goblin. The stylistic choices are awful sometimes.

Part of the reason Hollow Knight/SS sold so well is it's iconic art style that wasn't generic western trash. I would like to see Japanese games try this sort of thing more, but no it's nothing but anime. And western artists don't have the talent to make shit either nowadays most of the time.

I think the thing that sold Elden Ring the most is it's iconic look. It's stunning.
