edit: To be clear my decisions were based on Bicyclops and Gyra_solune getting owned, and then Endorph and I settling our differences with a friendly game of smash.

And then what happened?

I think I might after this game comes out. I really REALLY liked advance wars, but never gave FE a real chance.

I recommend the one on GBA just called "Fire Emblem" (it's Fire Emblem 7).

I want to play against Doctor What as a Mii Fighter hopefully dressed in the coat, with some kind of microphone so I can hear him talk in the disdainful voice about the whole thing. I don't know who else, whoever wants to.

Fire Emblem (FE7)
Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones (FE8)
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance (FE9) (We Like Ike)

And Fire Emblem: Awakening (FE13) (Chrom and Robin and Lucina)

are all good starting points. Radiant Dawn (FE10) And Shadow Dragon (FE11) are bad starting places, Radiant Dawn because it's a direct sequel to FE9 that starts off hard as hell and explains nothing of the plot or even really the gameplay before tossing you headfirst into things, and Shadow Dragon because it's a bad game.

That's all the US released FEs.

The only FE game I've ever played is the 3DS one, but I quit after a few hours because it felt like baby X-Com and I didn't care about the story enough to keep playing. Is there a better entry in the series to start with?

Cake Attack

Awakening is fun but not really for the strategy aspects, it's a pretty simple/easy game.

Try 7 (just Fire Emblem) probably or maybe Path of Radiance.

Well, dude, FE7 starts with a super handholdy tutorial that takes like two hours and then forces you to play Eliwood Normal your first run, which is frankly kind of braindead save for a few places.

Thracia 776 is obviously the best Fire Emblem to start with.

FE9 (Path of Radiance) is the best, and most well balanced game in the series, with regards to difficulty and characters.

Leaf is better than Roy. This is a FE fact.

also Thracia 776 is one of the best Fire Emblems.

Roy is at least a neutral enough character who doesn't do anything, instead of making a million colossally bad decisions and killing half her country like Micaiah, The Silver Haired Garbage.

I'm pretty bad at Fire Emblem but the characters are super charming and it's really satisfying when a battle clicks into place, so I keep chipping at it. Welp, thanks for reading! Hope this opinion was ok.

It listed all the characters in the leak, plus Ridley. It was dated February, but could perfectly well have been an edit.

It just said :ssh: followed by all the characters we already know about being announced plus Ridley and all the characters we're pretty sure were cut listed as cut, with a supposed date of February.

Roy is half Zombie Dragon though, and that's cool.

Also, how many avatars do I have to buy before you assholes recognize me as a comic genius and wish to Smash with me as the bros we are?

EDIT: Also you are all dumb, the correct best lord is Hector.
