I'm absolutely in love with this game and love it more than I ever will do any woman. It's just amazing. I'm speechless.
   Smash bros really is an amazing business move as an advertiser for different games. I became interested in the Fire Emblem series when playing Smash bros, as Robin and Chrom in particular became 2 of my favorite characters in the game. I wanted to play the game that they were featured in, but found that the installment (Awakening) only is available on the 3Ds and I didn't have access to that, but I did obviously own the Nintendo Switch, so instead of pursuing Awakening, I had no choice but to get Three Houses instead. One of the best decisions in my entire life. I watched the gameplay and it peaked my interest. Then I watched streams and read reviews that all were in favor of the game. I already had high expectations for the game and even felt a bit hyped upon getting it. However... I didn't expect something like this.
   
   I just **** love it. The game is pretty anime-like and the story is legendary. I won't go into why I feel like this about the story, as it would turn this already long review into a university M.D essay. The music and battle music in particular is amazing and epic. The gameplay and especially combat system is amazing. It's like chess, but way more complex. So many factors that plays into it, some examples being different abilities, crests, weapon effectiveness, stat modifiers from gambits and items, linked attacks and so much more.
   The cast individually are impressively written and complex individuals, most with backstories that fits and makes sense of their personalities and the main characters' motives. It makes them feel like alive, real world humans, hence is a big part of why you feel like a real professor with real adorable students when playing.
   The voice acting also is top-notch. I could go on and on with the positives of this game, but I actually have 1 complaint about this masterpiece.
   That being the graphics. In all honesty, the graphics and animation is terrible with today's standard. It almost looks like the game belongs to the N64.
   
   That being said, I have recently deep inside of me come to accept a harsh reality. The Zelda games is by far my favorite gaming franchise. It's not even close. Thus, I will always have a huge bias towards the Zelda games. Before getting this game, I thought that Breath of the Wild was the best game on the Nintendo Switch and I initially still thought so even after getting Three Houses. However, as the game slowly, but surely progressed in greatness, I started to doubt it. It was a harsh battle between the games. I would either say that they're equally good or that Breath of the Wild is slightly better. I always favored Zelda, because of what I expressed earlier, but as time went on I knew that it wasn't the case. I kept lying to myself until I couldn't take it anymore.
   Fire Emblem: Three Houses is the best game on the Nintendo Switch.
   
   I finally completed all of the routes recently and with 375+ hours in the bag, I figured that I was done and that I would buy the DLC later on and replay it. Nope. After a week I went ahead and started yet another playthrough. I still haven't even bought the DLC. I couldn't resist it. It's like trying to resist an extremely attractive, erection inducing woman who eventually drags you in.

   Hundreds of hours of content with free updates of maps/ harder difficulties coming, probably my favorite game of 2019 as it has already rackedHundreds of hours of content with free updates of maps/ harder difficulties coming, probably my favorite game of 2019 as it has already racked up the most hours on my switch.
   
   Graphics are not amazing and yet the best graphics of the franchise, battle gameplay is good.
   
   exploration and supports are fun but also skippable You dont HAVE to spend an hour talking to everyone in the monastary each month especially on repeated playthroughs it just fleshes out the story more, large cast and freedom to assign their roles/recruit students from other houses as well as 4 story paths offer a lot of replayability.
   
   new game + also helps bypass things you might find tedious your second or more playthrough
   
   I am personally looking forward to the harder difficulties.
   
   This game and franchise is not for everyone as it is 30 years old and has the mechanics of an older turn based game, something i prefer.
   
   The graphics are not cutting edge, however they are not "ps2 level" and are the best the series has ever had, assuming you were able to play the previous games without hating their graphics i dont see the problem
   
   The support conversations are not a majority waifu/husbando bait but if you don't like them you can just hit the start button and skip them with no penalty so i also don't see the issue here.
   
   The characters have interesting designs and backstories and none of the three houses are purely good or evil, they all have their own circumstances and are various shades of gray.… Expand

While graphics leave a lot to be desired, everything else absolutely shines. The two pillars of the series, plot and gameplay, are extremely well executed. The full voice acting also helps character building a lot and the voice actors were all great. I have 200+ hours in game and I regret nothing. One of the best entries for Nintendo Switch.… Expand

Nintendo acts themselves as the Chinese government and they are no different than communists in this aspect. They must learn, if the game is suitable in Japan, it is fine for us. There should be no changes other than the correct translation. If something (ie a reference) is unclear, we can all look it up ourselves. Overall, unnecessary censorship… Expand
