I've never played a Fire Emblem game, so I thought I'd try this one... and it's actually really amazing.
The gameplay is fun, addictive, and gives a unique twist to traditional turn-based combat. There's a lot of strategy: permadeath, pairing up characters to form relationships, commanding movements and several other factors make you carefully think about the consequences of each turn.
Anyone else have this game? I'm on chapter 21 right now.
