The story is rich and multifaceted, featuring three distinct routes that provide ample content to justify the game's price. It is heavily dialogue-driven, with fully voiced cutscenes and support conversations, and incorporates elements of in-game politics and tough decision-making. While the narrative is engaging, some players expressed a desire for more backstory on the character Shez.
“The story in the three routes was long enough to justify the price.”
“This time, the story takes place in three houses instead of Awakening; the game is story and dialogue heavy compared to Hyrule Warriors, for example.”
“I wish that there was more backstory for Shez.”
“When you reach this point in the game, it's best to create a separate save file if you plan to play all three storylines.”
“Like other Fire Emblem games, there’s some in-game politics and tough decisions to be made; cutscenes, support conversations, and the main story plot are fully voiced.”
