Fire Emblem isn't a JRPG

The classification of "Fire Emblem" as a JRPG (Japanese Role-Playing Game) can sometimes be a matter of debate among gamers and fans. While it does share several elements with traditional JRPGs, such as a strong narrative, turn-based combat, and character-driven storytelling, some argue that its tactical gameplay, strategic focus, and the absence of many typical JRPG features like open-world exploration set it apart.

Ultimately, whether "Fire Emblem" falls into the JRPG category depends on how one defines JRPGs. It's essential to remember that genre classifications can be fluid, and games often incorporate elements from various genres. What's most important is enjoying the game for what it is, rather than getting too caught up in labels and classifications.
