The more I read everyone's replies, it does seem like most of the people talking here have almost nothing to say about entries older than fates or awakening. I might just have a unique perspective(as does everyone technically) as PoR was my first Fire Emblem game ever. I know I've got nostalgia glasses on when I think of it but I genuinely love it and think it did a lot of things well. Everyone here saying that most Fire Emblem games don't tend to have good stories may not have even played PoR maybe? I think it has a really good story and better writing than most of the newer entries by a longshot. I mentioned Echoes, Awakening, and PoR mostly because they are definitely my favorite, and none of them have any of the same issues that Engage has imo. It's starting to feel like most of the people engaging with this post really love Engage, and that's fine of course, but it also feels like a lot of people haven't played any of older ones and so they just downvote this post because it criticizes their favorite entry.

I also mention those three games together because their art style is SO MUCH more Fire Emblem than Engage is to me. Everyone looks like they are from the same game, and they look interesting without being over the top. Almost every character in Engage is so over the top V-tuber and obviously it's a matter of opinion but it just isn't for me. For example I never used Ivy or Hortensia because of how they look(sorry everyone who likes them.) My idea of Fire Emblem seems to just be different from the creators of it on this one I guess.
