![]() Equipping them will not only buff certain stats but will give them an in-battle ability to Engage. The 12 Emblems containing the previous FE heroes can be equipped with any of the characters in your army. This big change to the game is the new Engage mechanics. Overall Engage makes its battle system easy to understand yet with lots of intricacies to help craft your perfect army. In addition, it’s also way easier to upgrade your units to new classes in the game compared to Three Houses, just get them to level 10, and use an item called a master seal to promote them whenever you want. Now using a strong weapon has the chance to ‘Break’ the opponent meaning that they won’t hit back in that turn. Notable features of the game are that it brings back the Swords-Lances-Axes weapons triangle and adds to it. Gameplayįire Emblem Engage keeps to the FE’s traditional strategy RPG gameplay where you move characters across a grid map to attack enemies or heal allies like a complex anime version of chess. The only real complaint I have is that the load times for the game can sometimes be very long, sometimes up to 15-20 seconds but it’s not that detrimental to the game. The dev team said they aimed to emulate the GBA games and certainly pulled it off. ![]() The animations are also well done, giving each attack a snappy hit that adds a sense of weight to each blow. It may not look like much from the pictures but on the Switch/TV screen, the cell-shaded graphics look smooth and transition well from the map to the battles. One thing I have to say straight away is that this is one of the best-looking switch games. The Graphicsįire Emblem Engage is split up into 26 chapters plus several Paralogue side missions for those looking for more content. The story won’t be for everyone I just had fun with and it was solid enough to get me through the game, even if I was occasionally laughing at the bad lines. Yes, it may be “too anime” ( still a terrible argument) but the vibrant colors and over-the-top extravagant clothing made every character feel more distinct as an individual. I’ll even say I like the designs for most of the cast. The others see them as a god yet they’re just a regular person and react with awkwardness and anxiety you’d expect from someone having to live up to those expectations. ![]() I don’t like the way characters literally worship the Avatar character but I love their woefully underprepared personality. There were also quite a few characters that I thought were pretty likable like Ivy, Goldmary, Yunaka (Hiya Papaya!), and even Alear themself is pretty solid. It’s not quite as well written as those but it invokes the same feeling. It reminded me a lot of the GBA Fire Emblem games in a way, just a ragtag group of heroes going out to save the world. It’s campy but after FE Fates’ confused mess of a plot and Three Houses’ great but dense political thriller, it’s kinda nice to go back to a more straightforward adventure. A lot of them have one quirk and they’re going to make sure you know about it in every one of their supports.įollow us on Twitter Follow and Tweet us Tweet to this, however, I still find a lot of charm in Engage’s story. A lot of the dialogue sounds unnatural and much of the cast has devolved back to gimmick personalities similar to FE Awakening and Fates. I don’t mean to repeat myself but Fire Emblem Engage really plays out like a corny Tokusatsu show for better and for worse. ![]() Thankfully, you got a special power, Emblem Rings that allow you to summon the heroes of past Fire Emblem games, together with your army is quirky characters you must scour the kingdoms, unite their leaders and collect all the emblem rings to stop the fell dragons. Unfortunately soon after you’re 1000-year nap, it turns out the evil Fell Dragon has also awakened and it causing zombie-like monsters to plague the continent. You awaken on a floating island surrounded by four nations on Elyos. You are Alear, the divine dragon, believe me, the game will remind you of this fact pretty much every ten minutes. The Divine Dragon He makes that face a lot when people are talking about him ![]()
