https://opencritic.com/game/7401/fire-emblem-three-houses/reviews
An 87 average so far after 41 reviews. Praise far and wide for how it changes up the formula of your standard Fire Emblem and features a story worth experiencing, but suffers from a lack of diversity in map design and some visual and performance issues that are noticeable at times GameXplain Kotaku SPOILERS https://kotaku.com/fire-emblem-three-houses-the-kotaku-review-1836675912 Easy Allies IGN - 9.5/10 Fire Emblem: Three Houses offers an incredible amount of choice, and a story that deserves to be viewed from more than one angle. http://www.ign.com/articles/2019/07/25/fire-emblem-three-houses-review Gamespot - 9/10 Fire Emblem: Three Houses is mechanically complex, consistently rewarding, and very hard to put down. https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/fire-emblem-three-houses-review-train-and-fight/1900-6417254/ Nintendo World Report - 8/10 Combining the crapshoot of your ending with a few technical problems drags the whole game down. The actual character arcs, complete with fully voiced interactions, do a great job of accounting for the limitations, thankfully. Three Houses is certainly worth seeing through, but it is way more about the journey than the end. http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/review/51210/fire-emblem-three-houses-switch-review Eurogamer Fire Emblem goes back to school for the most epic, generous and dynamic outing for the series yet. https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-07-25-fire-emblem-three-houses-review-a-tactical-masterclass Nintendo Life - 9/10 There was a lot riding on it, but we can confidently say that Fire Emblem: Three Houses has managed to live up to the hype and will stand as a highlight in the series for years to come. http://www.nintendolife.com/reviews/nintendo-switch/fire_emblem_three_houses USGamer - 4.5/5 Fire Emblem: Three Houses soars on to Switch with a fully-realized school setting, deep character customization, and multiple full-length campaigns. While it loses momentum in the second half, it still manages to come off as a striking reinvention of the well-worn Fire Emblem formula. That makes its first real console appearance in more than a decade a triumph. https://www.usgamer.net/articles/fire-emblem-three-houses-review Destructoid - 9.5/10 I cannot stress enough how much Fire Emblem: Three Houses exemplifies the "RPG" part of the acronym "SRPG." While strategy is indubitably a large part of Fire Emblem's DNA, the vast majority of my enjoyment was found having lunch with classmates and getting to know them better, or doing errands while running around the lovely academy grounds. This is a world you can absolutely lose yourself to for months on end, but if you find menus tedious, you might be reticent to the modern relationship-heavy Fire Emblem formula that's cemented in Three Houses. https://www.destructoid.com/review-fire-emblem-three-houses-559643.phtml --- ...

ninkendo posted...An 87 average so far after 41 reviews. It is 88 on Metacritic. Revelations has an 89 but it also has five reviews lol. The reviews are on par with or a bit better than Fates's but the Fates reviews were weird because of the splits between the versions - the most reviewed version of Fates is the special edition and that only has 17 reviews compared to Three Houses' 52. This looks like the second best reviewed entry behind Awakening. --- I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh BKSheikah ... Copied to Clipboard!

Also I guess Japan doesn't know what gays mean when they talk about wanting daddies, because the two older male teachers that male Byleth can S-rank with aren't romantic but just flat out become father figures. So lesbian Byleths get to choose from five women, but gay Byleths only get the one dude that also just so happens to look like a woman. Bah.

Claude really should've been bi, so that's a valid complaint. Well, maybe IntSys will give better options the next time (wouldn't bet the mortgage on it though).
Other than that, game looks sweet and I'm looking forward to the unlock tonight.

mnkboy907 07/25/19 6:47:56 PM #36: |
Byleth's outfit changes with their class (though perhaps not while running through the monastery?), and if you buy the season pass you can get another outfit, but the face and hair are pre-determined. It's most likely because unlike Robin or Corrin, Byleth actually appears in the pre-rendered cutscenes.

What do people think is off with female Byleth's design? Personally, it's probably my favourite of all the pre-release material, although I'll still be using male Byleth, at least initially.
