    Despite its flaws in narrative presentation, Fire Emblem Fates: Revelation is far and away the definitive experience for people who have fallen in love with the characters of the trilogy.

    As it stands, of the three iterations, Revelation is the one that most closely resembles Awakening, as it brings together every character, weapon, item and mechanic from both versions. This makes for some great support conversations, more customization, and it helps expand the long term value of the game by a lot.

    While most reviewers agree that Revelation stands in the middle ground when it comes to difficulty, I have to disagree. I think Revelation might just be the easiest of three, for the most part, not entirely. I'd say for newcomers, hard difficulty might be a pretty viable option. For hardcore players, I'd say lunatic on your first run might pretty doable, more than Birthright, and definitely more than Conquest.

    It may not offer a story as epic as Conquest, but it does present us with its unique take on the story, more characterization, new villains, and some pretty impressive twists. My only negative would be that by the end of the game, the maps start becoming a bit repetitive, but that's about it.

    The censoring of the game did bother me, but I'm not about to dock off points unfairly for such a great game.

    TL;DR If you liked Conquest or Birthright, go buy this one. Now    … Full Review »

    The third route, Revelations, fits perfectly with Birthright and Conquest and does it's job of telling the true story of Fates. Wrapping upThe third route, Revelations, fits perfectly with Birthright and Conquest and does it's job of telling the true story of Fates. Wrapping up mysteries not solved in the other two versions. Bringing together the entire cast of characters and seeing certain Hoshido and Nohr characters interacting is one of my favorite parts of the game and it's made better by the infinite opportunities to build supports and train your units. The story is just as compelling as the other two versions and almost does the best job at sucking you in, as I've found myself losing track of time while playing through the story to learn the mysteries each chapter offers. All in all, I'm gonna say Revelations is my favorite route of the three and does a great job of telling the whole story of the games.… Full Review »

    Fates es como el universo marvel, la historia real es Revelation, mientras que Conquest y Birthright son los universos de "What if" cada uno con sus cosas buenas y malas.
    El juego debió solo ser Revelation y como packs de DLC's Conquest y Birthright para conocer como pudo ser, semejante al "The Future Past" pack en Awakening.

    Pros
    - Tienes todas las armas y equipos
    - Exponencial cantidad de conversaciones

    Contra
    - Censura y retirada de contenido, acá no encontraras lo perdido en los otros dos, mala localización y modificación de conversaciones como todas las relaciones S de Kana y podrás reirte del meme que volvieron la conversación de SaizoxBeruka

    De todas maneras la ruta es superior a las otras dos, pero los 3 juntos no forman un juego lastimosamente y solo son $80 de relleno de un juego de $40 que no se entrego. Hubiera sido mejor al finalizar un juego sufrir de un sentido de perdida y tener la opción de regresar en el tiempo para hacerlo esta vez bien en un NG+.

    Nintendo ademas tiene problemas serios en la treehouse que esta erosionando su antigua y fiel fanbase con contenido correcto por algunos Social Justice Warriors.    … Full Review »
