Fire Emblem: Difference between revisions

* '''''[[Fire Emblem: Awakening]]''''' ([[Nintendo 3DS]], 2012) is set in the world of Akaneia 2000 years after ''Mystery of the Emblem'' (but [[Medieval Stasis|technologically unchanged from its era]]) and stars Chrom, a blue haired swordsman and dissident of Marth. The game brings back the world map system of ''Gaiden'' and ''The Sacred Stones'', reintroduces the skill system in a similar form to its Tellius incarnation, and sports a graphical style reminiscent of the Tellius games with a more cartoonish bent, with a [[Two Point Five D]] map and 3D fights. A new feature introduced allows units to gang up on enemies when next to an attacking ally. The player avatar from ''New Mystery of the Emblem'' returns with a more important though still secondary role, as did the second generation from the 4th though they join the main cast via time travel instead of replacing them via time skip. Was translated, but with substantial cuts (among others the avatar could originally have 3 personalities per sex, plus a 4th mute option. The translations limit this to only one personality each for male and female), censorship and rewrites (several characters have entirely different personalities). Also notorious for the introduction of DLC to not just the series but first party Nintendo games in general.

* '''''[[Fire Emblem: Three Houses]]''''' (Nintendo Switch, 2019) which apparently takes place in its own universe. While little was announced, it's not even entirely clear who is the main character (press release refers to "your protagonist", possibly another avatar), characters now lead units of faceless minions ''[[Langrisser]]'' style. Towns have returned from Gaiden, though the press release mentions "in some parts" so it's more likely an expansion of the base system instead of a return of the world map.
