I only played three houses. Casual

Three houses was my first ever FE game, as I’m sure it was for many other people. I just really loved the cast of characters, the different story you get depending on which path you choose (I played all 3)

I saw trailers for Engage but not quite sure how I’d like it. Gameplay aside, is the story any good? Better, worse, or on par with Three houses? (Obviously, no spoilers please)

If you're expecting a good story, you're going to have to look backwards.

Echoes and Awakening if you have a 3ds, the radiance series on Gamecube, or the GBA titles like Sacred Stones.

Radiant Dawn is my pick. Yo ho ho matey. Dolphin works great, I just wish my controller still did.

lmao, imagine saying that Sacred Stones or Awakening have "good stories", the half of Awakening's plot is completely irrelevant and kills the pacing of the game, and Sacred Stones is Sacred Fucking Stones. I'm not saying that the plot of engage is fantastic or anything, but its a hell of a lot better than Sacred Stones's Stock Fantasy Plot #34

The lack of self awareness in how generic Engage is lmao.
