Why did they remove the gameplay feature thar is the very reason fire emblem still exists?

The series would have ended years ago but they added in dating, and a whole new wave of players breathed new life into the franchise

Go to the channel of quite literally any Fire Emblem Youtuber to hear why they think Fates is trash.

And Neon speaks for no one but the waifu crowd.

Nah. Fates was hated in the same way that final fantasy 7 remake is hated, meaning its mainly just the vocal minority of dudes on forums/youtubers/internet in general mad about something or another. Your everyday average fan liked it (and same goes for FF7 remake).

Not really, no. Fates is consistently the least popular across all modern Fire Emblems and it is only its very initial reception that was any good. By the time Revelations came out such good will had worn off and the fact that the writing was embarrassingly bad, the stages were awful, and it offered nothing in terms of gameplay additions to the series had won out as the prevalent feeling.

Yes really.

Look, I'm not the biggest fan of fates myself (more of a fire emblem 7 and path of radiance fan myself), but I am not going to pretend that the game was not a obvious huge success. If fates truly was as bad as fire emblem superfans of the older games made it seem out to be then word of mouth would have quickly spread to the point that even the less intense fire emblem fans would have noticed how supposed bad it was.

Dating wasn't in 3H either, and that became the best selling FE of all time.

I never said anything about it not being a success. That would be like saying that Pokemon Scarlet/Violet was not a success: conflating two separate things.

Children weren't in 3H, dating was. That was the tea time mini-game.

tea time was just an extra thing to build friendship. You could tea everyone in the game even if they weren't an S rank option.

I just need to know two things:

Does this have annoying loli style character in it? (Some child like looking character who's actually 18+).

Does game have annoying dating sim or waifu simulation in it? I find these mechanics incredibly annoying and cringe. 3House and Hope's had the fucking tea party and picnics with the former being tied to a fucking stated progression. Fates(?) had the creepy petting simulator....

Does the story suck?

If yes to either, I'll pass.

Correct. That's why I pointed to Youtube as it is trivial to find out why it's currently hated by that particular Youtuber as everyone who still brings up Fates in general at this stage is going to do so to dunk on it. Even Mangs stopped even bothering with his uploads for the entire run just so he could make a video of the highlights about him complaining.

No sadly people like female Corrin precisely because she's just a pretty girl with no personality

Honestly though, the only entry that I blatantly hated since Awakening was just Fates. All the other entries are amazing

Chrom's "Anything can change!" was pretty good too, I can only hope Altear isn't stuck with Marth being their confidant the whole game but that scene where Marth goes Rojo and their reaction makes it seem like it will.
