Once I finally got past the anime-inspired art style and the intimidatingly tactical gameplay, I found myself completely engrossed.While the *Fire Emblem* series can be a bit of a steep hill for new players to climb, that’s just a minor hurdle in the path of this adventure. Unfolding across a vast landscape, this adventure is epic, long-lasting, fun, and challenging—even newcomers to the series will find plenty to enjoy.
・Hobby Consolas: 88/100
To put it mildly, there’s no denying that its structure is unconventional. Some may find it hard to accept… However, for die-hard strategy fans who find joy in building the strongest army through meticulous management and extreme stat-building, this game is an incredible SRPG.It is, without a doubt, a time-sink. No, not just any time-sink… it’s a bottomless pit.


・IGN Benelux: 84/100
*Fire Emblem: Three Houses* is a solid entry in the *Fire Emblem* series. However, around the time I finished Part 2, I started to find the side activities tedious. Since it would have been an enjoyable experience otherwise, personally, I feel like it put a bit of a damper on things.
