I can’t reccomend Three Houses enough. While it might not be the best looking game on the Switch, it’s one of the best Fire Emblem games in a long time. The difficulty is overall easier than usual which makes it great for beginners. The story and lore is pretty interesting, and the music is great. The gameplay is also very customizable. Unlike most Fire Emblem games, where characters have pre-defined roles, a lot of your characters start out as blank slates you mold over time. While there are optimal paths, meme builds can also viable, to the point that one character who is design to be a mage’s best build is actually an axe-fighter. Later on they added Maddening mode, which provides a tough but (usually) fair challenge. I sunk tons of time into this game and I’m still playing it. One thing the game isn’t too clear about though is class progression. For whatever reason, a lot of the ultimate classes aren’t worth it. The biggest example is the “upgrade” to Swordmaster, which actually slows you down and makes you hit weaker, and it can’t even use the special attack Swordmaster gives you. Cavaliers are also a trap on pretty much everyone but Byleth and Dimitri. If you want mobility, go for a flying class. Overall it’s a 9/10 masterpiece that can easily give you over 300 hours. If you only want to play it once though, choose Dimitri.
The Wonderful 101 Remastered comes out today. If you didn’t play it on the Wii-U, it’s very good. It’s also cheaper than it was on the Wii-U, so you have no excuse to skip it this time!
