Petra ended up being my MVP and could basically solo the final boss if I had the patience.

Been playing through a ton of Fire Emblem instead of studying for boards. Here are some thoughts.
I finished Rhea’s route first, largely because I wanted to get it over with. I thought the story of this game was great, but I felt the ending was a bit underwhelming. However, I don’t think that’s a fair assessment yet. I suspect I will need to play through the other routes to immerse myself with the game’s plot. It seems like much more interesting things happen in the other houses. That being said, the story was still great. The characters actually felt fleshed out and realistic, and the development they receive after the time skip was excellent. Floyd mentioned something about Edelgard being Daenerys done right, and that’s a very apt comparison. Now I want to do her route and Punished ‘Venom’ Dimitri’s route, but I might save them for the end.
I’ve been really enjoying the gameplay too. It’s on the easier side, except for the final boss which was a bit more of a challenge. I don’t really want to try a harder difficulty though. I like challenges, but I don’t like doing it in RPGs where battles can go up to half an hour. I just don’t have that amount of patience or time. Also the menu system is kind of bad. It’s so easy to get lost, and I think it’s hard to keep track of your items. But honestly, these are pretty minor gripes, and I think the game is otherwise super fun.
Music is fantastic. There is nothing short of greatness in this game’s soundtrack.
I’m really happy about this game overall. I’m glad it’s my first FE game. It’s also kind of a relief to play this type of game after the schlock that was KH3 and FF10. Like, I know they’re very different, but I can’t help but compare them. This game pulls off the anime/JRPG vibe really well. It doesn’t overdo it either like the aforementioned games, or like XC2, whose character designs and interactions (among other things) completely turned me off from the game. I wish more JRPG-type games had realized characters like this.
Anyways. I think I need some distance. Too much of a good thing isn’t healthy, and I desperately need to catch up on studying. I’ll probably do Golden Deer next.

Glad you dug it man. I will say the ending seems underwhelming no matter what route you go with, but I guess that's par for the course when you have so many variables that can go into it.

Honestly I’m okay with that at this point. It’s not perfect, but it does everything else well enough.

Yeah same. The characters are so good I dont really mind the plot details.

So by some divine miracle, I managed to get Devotion to work on one of my computers. This computer itself is kind of awful though, so I don’t know if it will run well. But this at least confirms that I can download and play it.
I’m totally ecstatic. I feel like I’m about to join some hidden club.

Can you imagine the post-skip Gronder fight on a harder difficulty? Holy. And I don’t understand how you guys are lapping me. I haven’t even finished my 1st run!
Anyway, does Borderlands 3 interest you at all!?

I’m probably only lapping you because I have no life lol. I finished Golden Deer and am doing the Blue Lions and I think this might be my favorite house.
And yeah, the Gronder fight would be tough on Hard classic. A part of me wants to be okay with my own units dying in this game. It would add to the illusion that I’m in a war with people dying, but I can’t let that happen. Although I’m okay with Lorenz and Caspar kicking the bucket.
I’m not really sure about Borderlands 3. It hasn’t actually been on my radar, but I’m not like actively disinterested in it. I guess I just haven’t looked into it yet. I might do so in the near future though.
