I’m a big fan of RPG games, my favorite overall series is Fire Emblem; but I also love other styles of games such as Final Fantasy, Spider-Man, Zelda etc.
My only gripes are personal and not really gameplay related or anything like that. I do like/expect post game content and that is lacking here, but that isn’t really a valid complaint IMO for any game that can total north of 50/60 hours when adding non-locked side quests and such which this game has plenty. I did most everything before the final stage, and my play time was at 90 hours.
The strategy has surprising large depth, which is easy to learn and enjoyable to tweak teams of units almost every battle. TONS of characters and none got on my nerves, which can occasionally happen. The only real criticism is that the story is somewhat basic, but beside that I would give this a near perfect rating. 9.5 out of 10!
