I'm thinking if picking this up.
Which one is better?
Am I missing something significant depending on which one I chose? I could totally end up getting both if it's worth it but if I had to choose one, which one?
>>
buy collectors edition

>>344374840
I have a homebrew 3ds so I'm stuck digital. I mostly was just looking for a good starting point.
>>
>>344374747
I read conquest is the harder one. That's all I know. Been curious about the game myself.
>>
It's crap. Don't play it.
>>
conquest is the best of the three and is actually great as far as fire emblems go

birthright is just ok

revelation is fucking shit, don't bother playing it
>>
>>344374747
Play Conquest and read a summary of hoshido's story.
If you liked them (or you feel like you need more)
Play revelations.
it's " Gimmicks the game" and characters feel forced as fuck compared to the other routes
but it has a nice final boss.

Wait there's 3 games?
I thought there was only 2.
Huh...
>>
>>344374747
Birthright is more like Awakening and allows you to grind, Conquest has much harder maps with more varied objectives and doesn't allow grinding.

Either way the story is shit and the localization butchered it, make sure to pirate

They might as well be, since hoshido is such a shit game compared to the other two, hell! even Awakening was better.

Conquest for gameplay
Birthright for writing not that it's good either way
Revelations afterward for gimmicks
>>
Why is she so perfect guys?
>>
>>344377853
Conquest is the Nohr campaign
Birthright is the Hoshido campaign
Revelations is a third, non-physical campaign intended to be played after you play the other 2.
>>
>>344374747
Censored garbage. Pirate or buy secondhand
>>
>>344378232
Don't worry anon I'm a homebrew fag.
Is there an uncensored patch out there?
>>
so does revelations take place after the other two, with one of the two storylines being considered canon? or is is a different thing altogether? possible to answer without spoilers?
>>
>>344378557
All 3 campaigns are alternate paths branching from one point. None of them intersect or are more "canon" than any other.
>>
>>344374747
I started with Conquest.

Haven't finished yet but I'll get the others later.

The english voices is a bit jarring.
>>
>>344378194
because you can kidnap her and her whole family
>>
>>344378349
There is the Jap game with fantranslation and the Jap game with the localized script in it. Take your pick.

>>344378557
The three games are like different paths you take from the one decision point
>>
>>344379078
Got any experience with the two?
Which one should I go for?
>>
>>344374747
Conquest
everything else is hot garbage
>>
If you want to count every route as a separate game:
>Conquest is 9/10 amazing
>Hoshido is 7/10 good, but a chore to replay
>Revelations is 5/10 genuinely the worst Fire Emblem since the NES

Conquest can be a good start if you see no shame for resetting a chapter when things go wrong.
>>
I thought the generic dark mages were female at first
>>
>>344380616
Hoshido is way too fucking easy, also what's wrong with Revelations?
>>
Does anyone have a link to a .cia of a translation of conquest?
Since I have homebrew I might as well take advantage of getting the game uncensored.
>>
>>344378001
Conquest for funsies
Birthright for jack shit
Revelations for support grinding
I honestly think Conquest has the best gameplay and story of the 3. Don't get me wrong, the story is all bad, but Birthright is literally nothing and Revelations cranks up the retardation of Conquest to the max.
>>
>>344380760
Retarded story, maps are gimmick-fests with dragon vein spam so you need a bunch of royals, unit balance is fucked beyond belief like an underleveled Nyx joining at the same time as Shura.
>>
>>344380760
The gimmicks seem fun at first but when you start progressing more and more, the maps keep getting more tedius, unbalanced, slow, and boring.
Story is the worst out of all of them
>>
>>344380760
Unit balance. Everyone except foe the Royals, children, Reina and maybe Silas and Kaze are completely worthless and unusable. For a route that sells itself for being able to use everyone, you really can't use almost anyone. Specially Nohrian units, they just got trashed. Gimmicks are boring things that just forces you to wait and delay the game a lot and can mostly be bypassed by fliers too.

Overall the whole thing is not fun.

>gimmicks seem fun at first
I dunno, with the tedious snow chapter being pretty early on, I think it was a good sign of how the rest of the campaign would play out.

>>344374747
Awakening - bad in every way and absolutely awful in terms of gameplay
Birthright - bad in every way
Revelations - bad in every way
Conquest - bad in every way except gameplay, which is solid
>>
>>344379634
Fan translation has the main game translated but other stuff very little. /feg/ has a pastebin of the missing translation. The localized script has some characters arguably butchered along with other stuff. Your pick honestly
>>
>>344383341
>bad in every way
Hey!
Fates has a fantastic soundtrack.
