What went wrong with this series?
No fucking clue.
They decided to turn it into devianart shipping shit for some reason.
They don't even bother pretending that you aren't self-inserting.

Conquest was pretty good. It could be completely dead but they at least proved they could design traditional FE campaigns and cool maps.
waifufags, you people are worse than pokemon furries
>>341201556
Nothing. You're just a faggot.

Every previous FE story was some guy being a dick and the dragons coming back, the story was always terrible. It's just more obvious now with the waifu flavor content.

Self-insert hurts the writing since it has to be bland enough to be a self insert and work with a male/female character with minor alterations between them. They also kept going in FE12's direction with Awakening, but thankfully turned it around with FE14, especially the Conquest campaign.

Dunno. But considering there's currently a fucking lets play thread active on an older title, I'm sure they did something wrong.
"muh maps and old RNG gameplay" sold like shit starting sometime before the beginning of the decade and they made drastic changes in what was meant to be their swan song, but it sold well enough to continue
these drastic changes anger and confuse you

Fan service got out of hand.
Trust me, I havn't played a single Fire Emblem game.

>still using the "muh maps" bait when even people who started with Awakening can realize Conquest is the best game of the trio since it's the only one with well designed maps
If anything, Fates proved that waifu pandering will only get this series so far. The next game will need to follow in Conquest's footsteps and not just waifus or else it will fail.
