TornadoGenerator456 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I currently want to get into a Japanese only fire emblem game. I already played 6 so what should I play next? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magical Glace Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 4 or 5, probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eclipse Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I'm gonna move this to General FE. As for what to play, try FE4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldrick Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 The first three games show their age. 4 is quite different mechanically and 5 plays similar to the GBA games. The latter can be tricky if you're playing blind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Mir Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 If you played SD already, FE3 might be worth looking into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TornadoGenerator456 Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 4 or 5, probably. One vote for 4 and 5 As for what to play, try FE4. Two votes for 4 The first three games show their age. 4 is quite different mechanically and 5 plays similar to the GBA games. The latter can be tricky if you're playing blind. Haven't played GBA games in a while so I guess 3 votes for 4 If you played SD already, FE3 might be worth looking into. I assume you also mean beat SD and have played it just not beaten it so that's a no vote for FE3. Well I guess I'm going to play FE4.

Shadow Mir Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I assume you also mean beat SD and have played it just not beaten it so that's a no vote for FE3. Maybe, but I would've recommended FE3 nonetheless because reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TornadoGenerator456 Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 Maybe, but I would've recommended FE3 nonetheless because reasons. Alright then but the numbers still point to 4. But I may just play 3 next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterIceTeaPeach Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I don't know if this topic would disqualify FE9's maniac mode since it only exists in JP. If it really does... then... well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dayni Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 If you can get through SD, I do think FE12 is actually a good game, though certainly only if you can get through SD. (It's also a title with an avatar character, unfortunately) If doing FE4, I'd recommend FE5 right after, but be warned that FE5 is a mean title, much more so than 4, and plays differently enough to throw you off.

BrightBow Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 (edited) 4 would be the best. As a side effect of it's different design it dodges some of the interface limitations that 5 has, like not being able to choose your unit's starting locations. It's also the game that really improved the controls and the interface. 3 still feels way too much like the stiff NES games.

Rollertoasteur Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I'm gonna be different and throw in my vote for FE12! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Draco Knight Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Gonna follow the train and say FE4. FE1,2 and 3 really shows their age(s) and FE5 can be rather Tricky if played blindly, not to mention that It spoils some of the events of FE4. However, if you enjoyed SD, then FE12 wouldn't be bad choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandy Druid Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 FE12 is the newest Japan-only. It's on the DS, so no region lock if you still have yours. FE4 has a really interesting story though, arguably the best in the series. But the gameplay is difficult though because it follows a different formula.

But the gameplay is difficult though because it follows a different formula. That's odd, I didn't find FE4 difficult at all. However, this isn't the place for me to soapbox about it, so I'll just say that I disagree with this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
