    I spent around 70 hours on the game... within the first 2 weeks. Three houses is seriously addicting, fun, and best of all - replayable. You can make your characters into any class that you like, the story is amazing, and the soundtracks are just phenomenal. If there is only one game you can pick to play this year, make it this one - you won't regret it.

    El juego es profundo y lo suficienteme complejo como para hacerte pasar un rato en la estratrgia de la siguiente batalla, las historias son geniales y variadas. Un juego bastante entretenido

    After 60 hours of the Golden Deer route, all I can say is that this defied all of my expectations. The classic Fire Emblem gameplay is as tight as ever and the soundtrack is amazing. I can't wait to begin the other routes.

    This is my first Fire Emblem game and now I want to play the older ones. I have over 100 hours in this game already; sixty of which were in the first week it released. Such a heavy and deep story that I actually enjoyed listening to. Easily in my top 5 favorite games of all time.

    Has the fun of the fire emblem battle system, but adds much more gameplay by allowing Byleth to wander the campus and complete quests. Most the characters are designed well and interesting. Loved the story and music.

    As a long time Fire Emblem fan, this is a game that was a nice oasis in the desert that was the fan service loaded games that preceded it. It's a fantastic game that I'd recommend to Fire Emblem fans, strategy game fans, or really anyone. Great game 6/9 will play again.

    300 hours into the game and I'm still ready to play more. Captivating story and characters and addictive gameplay.

    Amazing game, this should not deserve such a bad review just because some people decided to review bomb this game

    Pretty good game. Only rating to help with the review bombing, hope it gets cleared up.

    Honestly this game is great! Has a nice look and feel to the game while still maintaining all that charm and strategy that you expect out of a FE title! Love it.

    Don’t listen to the copy and pasted reviews. I am not saying that some are not genuine, but please don’t base a game off a review or score system. Play it. Decide if YOU like it. That is what is most important.

    Awesome. All four routes are fun. Social simulation aspects are compelling and the tactical battles, as always, are super fun.

    This game is excellent. Some people are still stuck in the past with Fire Emblem but Three houses is a nice direction for Fire Emblem with the three lords all feeling like their own characters with unique personalities and motivations. The class system was a really interesting change and one I actually enjoyed.
    The soundtrack is one step above even Echoes which easily had the best Fire

    The soundtrack is one step above even Echoes which easily had the best Fire Emblem soundtrack. It feels like the games just keep one upping themselves when it comes to that.
    All in all after 54 hours of completely the Golden Deer path I can say that it was worth the wait.

    This games takes the Fire Emblem series to the next level. It tells a fascinating story set in a very well developed world where a huge number of in depth characters act believably and make decisions based on their past.

    One of the most enjoyable games I have played. I'm already deep into my 4th playthrough as this game is just begging to be played multiple times!

    I love this game. I love the combat, the social aspects, the story, how your decisions actually make a difference, and the replay value is amazing with 4 different endings with ng+makes it all better. But the best part of the game is the Amiibo feature, the location where you use your Amiibos is called The Amiibo Gazebo. Which is absolutely fantastic.

    Everyone, it's time for the Hoes Mad Counterattack. Toxic Sony fans can't be reasoned with, so we must recycle their tactics and bombard the game with 700 10 point reviews for the rest of the day, written and unwritten. I've done the math and this would raise the score to a far more respectable 7.5. And if you'd like, you can employ this on Astral Chain and also do a negative review bombEveryone, it's time for the Hoes Mad Counterattack.

Would this be fanning the flames? For sure. Is it the only way, and would it encourage all 10 people who only look at user scores to buy the game? Absolutely. To war, brothers!

    And yes, the game is so good it got me acting like an actual war strategist lmao.

    This game is fantastic. It is a great mix of life sim and strategy. I have already sunk over 50 hours into, and that was just on 1 of the 4 routes.

    This is definitely a game you should pick up (if you're ok with being sucked into games.) and enjoy RPGs. Ignore the people supposedly review-bombing the game, copy-pasting the Astral Chain negative reviews.

    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]
