I personally believe that this game is a must have for anyone who owns a switch or is interested in tactical RPGs or RTSs. Fire Emblem: Three Houses offers a surprisingly deep story and lore supported by some of the best written characters in any RPG I've played. The game features engaging yet challenging combat alongside one of the best soundtracks on the switch accompanied by stellar voice acting. Although I consider this FE's magnum opus, it isn't without it's flaws. My biggest gripe with this game is the class mastery system which I find way too grindy, I finished Azure Moon with 999 battles on Gilbert and Hilda and around 660 on Dedue and Alois just because of all the times I threw them in a thicket with a broken lance as a fortress knight just so I could master the abilities I wanted on my main cast, it's too long and grindy and it just feels cheap. Another fairly major problem this game has is that the monastery (especially at A+ professor rank) is pretty boring, I found myself in all playthroughs at part 2 just falling in the same free time loop, share a meal with my main cast, enter the sauna with my main cast, instruct, do choir or cooking sometimes, repeat. I know this game was on a pretty tight development cycle but I still wish exploring was almost as deep as Persona 5's exploring with more to do and less restrictions. My remaining issues are pretty small but they do add up to a non-insignificant amount annoyance. FPS issues, Beginning of the game restrictions in NG+ (disabled fast travel and inaccessible facilities), minor plot holes (Blood of the Eagle and Lion), Crimson Flower being unfinished, and some side characters being fairly two dimensional (Ignatz, Lorenz, Catherine, Cyril, Raphael, etc.). Even though I just spent half the paragraph talking about the flaws of this game, but I believe this is still one of the best switch games and is a shed of light in the toxic and over monetized current games industry.

    TLDR: Brilliant but flawed. PLAY THE GAME!!!!    … Expand

    Three house is undoubtedly a major innovation in the FE series, but if you focus on the SRPG part, it is a big step backward.

    three house is a good game, but hopefully IS doesn't do it again.

    Three houses is an excellent FE game, which is similar in many of its mechanics to earlier games in the series.
    The story does split quite a lot between the 3 choices, and this can become complicated if you start to misremember particular things on subsequent playthroughs.
    That fact aside, this game has a solid story and a great feel. I enjoyed all three playthroughs.

    The game is full of memorable characters, each with their own unique personalities and stories. Players will grow attached to their students and be invested in their success. The gameplay is addictive and challenging, with a variety of maps and enemies to keep players on their toes. The game also features a deep customization system, allowing players to create their own unique units.

My only gripe withthis game was that the second half felt a bit slower that the ironically calm first half

    Absolutely a better game than I was expecting. The story is better, the characters are better, the things you can spend your time on are far more engaging, and it is just a better game than I ever could have predicted. I do wish it didn't lag at some of the points where it does, but it's clear that that beyond that one fault, there really isn't anything wrong with the game, yet alone bad about it.

For anyone who's not familiar about the Fire Emblem series and want to get into the game, this is a really good game to jump into, It have a beginner friendly mode where you can choose to prevent permanent death and it does not require you to play the previous installment to know the story since Three Houses is pretty much a stand alone game without any reference from the pass Fire Emblem games. With the addition of the monastery in the latest installment of Fire Emblem, it give players the freedom to interact with your favorite characters, doing side quest and leveling up your stats. The monastery could feel a little overwhelming at first, but it won't be long before the players get used to it. Unlike the previous Fire Emblem games, you are given much more freedom in term of selecting what classes you want to assign your units and there isn't to much of a restriction which I for once welcome the change. In Three Houses they have add in many more addition to the gameplay, one of the example is the addition of "Adjutant" which is a new gameplay mechanics that was not in the previous Fire Emblem series which you are allowed to assign this adjutant to accompany your units into battles. As for the story in the games goes, without spoiling anything it is as good as it can get which is what you would normally expect from a Fire Emblem game. There's a lot of replay value for the game as well since there's a total of three houses to pick from and with each of their own unique stories and endings.

Koei Tecmo and Intelligent Systems joining forces to make this game was a brilliant idea, and the fruits of their labors are a game that is chock full of content and replayability.

    The smartest choice this game made was putting the characters front-and-center. Everyone in the cast is so well written and well developed that letting characters die is simply not an option like in previous Fire Emblem games. The voice acting is impeccable, and certainly sells each character. The game is fully voiced, and is a delight for the ears.

    So many games of this scale use NPCs as plot devices to put together a story. Others use annoyingly frequent cutscenes for character development.

Others use annoyingly frequent cutscenes for character development. However, Fire Emblem Three Houses is the first game I've played where the NPCs are the main force driving the story forward. The characters are amazing, and character development happens through conversations. It reminds me of stardew valley in that regard. Characters are deep and their emotions are genuine. The phenomenal VA makes this game absurdly immersive.

    I have never been a big fan of turn based combat or strategy focused games, but the combat in this game is simple enough to be enjoyed by anyone, and complex enough to be enjoyed by hardcore fans. I actually care about the characters, making battles all the more serious. I want my characters to succeed and stay alive because I can actually care about them. No other game has succeeded in that goal.

    The performance is solid, although the textured are low-quality. However it's hard to dwell on these low-res textures because the character models are so absolutely fantastic.

    I love this game so much, and chances are you will too.    … Expand

The amount of love and care the developers put into this game is obvious, from the beautiful soundtrack, to the excellent writing, and stellar voice acting of the cast. I've played the game for about 25 hours so far and im totally hooked. Amazingly, I've also barely scratched the surface! The developers have added multiple branching paths to the story that genuinely pack a lot of unique content in. The replayability of this game is seriously mindboggling. So far my favorite parts of the game are the charming cast of characters. Knowing that I may soon be seeing some of my favorite characters on the opposite end of the battlefield with deadly results gives serious weight to the story and added great depth to the plot. My biggest gripes so far are the level design and the reuse of maps in side battles, though to be fair both of those issues are long standing problems in the series. Additionally the menus can be overwhelming at times and yet they often still lack some crucial information which leads to a lot of frustratimg flipping through menus. While certainly not perfect, this game is a huge step forward after the controversial Awakening and Fates, and it puts the series on strong footing. I am confident in the direction the series is now moving.… Expand

    The Story is not a masterpiece but good enough to keep me interested in it

In the year since till now, I have played almost every game in the series, barring the Tellius games and the 8-bit original. Now that the game is finally out, what are my thoughts on this game? Well having played only one route so far, I can safely say that this game is worth the wait. Fire Emblem: Three Houses is an unpolished masterpiece, however. The story and lore of the game is profoundly greater than the past few games and more reminiscent of the Judgral games which is a big plus in my book. For the most part, the characters were deep and quite lovable, having personal stories connecting to the overall narrative in some cases. Not to mention that the gameplay is both fun, rewarding, and addicting. My only main gripe of this game might have to be its rather unpolished feel. The game can feel a bit laggy at times. The environments range from good to ugly; some backgrounds look like they are from the Nintendo 64. Though this is the first "HD" Fire Emblem game, Intelligent Systems cannot be excused for leaving such graphical farts in the final release. Overall, despite the unpolished nature of the graphics, the story, gameplay, and characters take center stage. If you do not mind bad textures and are in the mood for a great RPG and tactical game, I highly recommend this game to you.… Expand

Los mapas están bien y la ayuda de Koei Tecmo se nota a la hora de representar batallas más realistas, con mayor sensación de guerra gracias a la presencia de los soldados menores. Quizá el juego es más fácil que otras entregas, pero se puede solucionar con una subida de dificultad.

    El monasterio y su exploración son un gran añadido. Entretenido y complejo, que además puede amenizarse en caso de que no guste con la automatización de ciertas actividades. La referencia de Persona con el calendario y la interacción con los personajes se nota y se agradece. Es una buena forma de profundizar y empatizar con ellos.

    La historia es muy interesante. Los personajes, aunque a priori parezcan genéricos y faltos de carisma, a medida que los vas conociendo también son interesantes.

    This is my first Fire Emblem so it's my first taste of this style of combat and I really like it a lot. I've spent a lot of time doing additional battles to level up my characters mainly because it's so much fun.
    There's also a lot to do around the monastery in the form of activities like fishing, studying, singing, eating, cooking or offering advice. This stuff is largely optional though so it can all be skipped quite easily. It does seem helpful as a means of boosting your team's motivation levels or giving them additional perks in battle.

    Replayability seems to be one of the standout qualities of this game. I can easily see myself doing two or three playthroughs as there are different battles, characters, final bosses and endings.

    My only criticism is that the beginning is quite slow and it'll take a while before you get to fight anyone but it's still been enjoyable throughout.
    Some people here seem to criticize it for borrowing ideas from Persona 5 but is that a bad thing? It's not like Persona is an annual franchise. There was an 8 year gap between persona 4 and 5... might be a while before we play another one so if other games want to take inspiration from it then they can go right ahead.    … Expand

    I am personally looking forward to the harder difficulties.

    This game and franchise is not for everyone as it is 30 years old and has the mechanics of an older turn based game, something i prefer.

    The support conversations are not a majority waifu/husbando bait but if you don't like them you can just hit the start button and skip them with no penalty so i also don't see the issue here.

I remember this strong feeling which is the reason that I love fire emblem series. This can also explain the reason I love THREE HOUSES. I do not care about the weapon triangle, whether dead people can be alive or duration of weapons. What I really care about is a story making me want to be involved and the mechanics making me have strong feeling to those characters, just like the first time I played this series. THREE HOUSES make it, so I’d like to give it 10/10!

    Is absolutely my favorite game on Switch. Can't remember the last time I was so excited to get out of work, etc, to play a game. The way I feel about this game is the same way I felt about BotW; the New Donk City portion of Mario Odyssey; my first Splatfest.

    I'm a long time fan of the FE series, but somehow this game got on me on a different level. Love the characters and the exploration, the dialogues are clever and cheesy and adorable at the same time. Also loving the battles as much as other games in the series. Amazing game.

    Excelente jogo. Nintendo soube dosar bem as batalhas e as tarefas no monastério. Os tutoriais do jogo ajudam muito os marinheiros de primeira viagem dessa excelente franquia.

    This game doesn't deserve anything close to a zero and the Sony Fanboys are just trolling again.

    Una buena evolución de Fire Emblem, han sabido dar el salto a la Switch de una manera bastante buena. Casi todo lo hace a la perfección, buena historia, buen combate, buenos personajes... Quizás los gráficos flojean pero por lo demás chapó.

    This game is a SOLID 9, but im giveing it a 10 just for the ps4 rtrds that come here just to troll any good nintendo game (just look at breath of the wild user score).

    The only flaw are graphics are very unpolished and even lax, switch can handle more beautiful graphics than that.

    This game is so cool, nintendo games are exactly what they tell you they are, I was really hyped for this game and was not disappointed at all, I never thought turn based combat could be this intense. This really is the ultimate Fire Emblem game. This game took this entire franchise onto another level.

    I finish my first run through with the church pathway, and I jumped right in for another new game + without any hesitation, and that also was a story of 70 hours play-time ago. The game just keeps getting better and better, the story with every aspect is so good and compelling, make me want to come back for more.

    In conclusion, definitely contender for Game of the year for me.    … Expand

    There may be too much content here for busy adults to tackle! I don't know when I'm going to find the time to do full playthroughs of the other two Houses that I didn't choose to begin with! [Issue #41 – September 2019, p. 74]

    Fire Emblem Three Houses is one of Switch's best games of 2019 and a breeze of fresh air to this franchise. Unfortunately, its poor animations preclude any possibility of being the game of the year.

    Large selection of classes, good AI and wide variety of missions make Fire Emblem: Three Houses one of the best turn-based tactics. [Issue#240, p.50]
