What game did you last play?!?!?!?

Fire Emblem: The Blazing Sword (or Blade) (Or Fire Emblem for short. T'was the first non-Japan exclusive in the series) (emulator).
Finally posting about this.
I have been wanting to play this game so badly... here I am now, playing it.
I start the game, here plays the intro telling you that humans and dragons lived in peace, and all that sort of shit...
And then... the title screen... this music...
This is surreal. I know it's just the regular FE main theme, but there's just something magical about this version... it's so beautiful... hearing this track when I'm actually doing the gameplay part... it's just not the same as hearing the music itself... I felt that same feeling with many other songs in the game. Like... say... Ninian's theme! Idk... that is probably one of the best feelings ever.
So I played like about probably half of the game so far...
And it's been an amazing experience for now. And even though I already knew how to play before playing, there's a tutorial at the beginning of the game for anyone new, so this game is a great place to start FEing. And as much as people dislike that tutorial, I actually liked it. I personally thought it was a nice balance of hand-holding and of "you're on your own". I also really like Lyn as a character, you know, maybe she is a kind of generic strong headed girl who is a sweetheart otherwise but still, she's nice, and there's also the fact that you, the tactician, are a character in the actual story who all the others interact with, so it just makes anyone who directly talks to you that much closer. Not to mention that same tutorial does give me access to who is my favorite character in this game so far.
Right now, I have just finished Chapter 15's map, the one where all three lords meet up. Quite an interesting chapter if y'ask me. Also that was the first map where someone on my side died, and it was Matthew. But, well, he kinda is like, one of my favorite characters so, yeah, reset time.
I wouldn't really want to let anyone die actually, would just let me feel horrible when the ending comes in and states that said character died. Maybe I will Iron Man this game once, but now, I really want to get the best ending possible I can get with Eliwood's story. Probably never gonna Iron Man this game actually.
Yeah. Really loving this game.

That's the only Fire Emblem game I've played, and it was so long ago I barely remember it. Would it be a good place to try and pick up the series again?
Yeah, I suppose.
And on that note, I just played it again.
Chapter 16 was a bit tough on me, not because of the chapter itself, but rather my inexperience in how to handle it. I thought it was fine to take my time and kill the enemies at my own pace, but then I realized that the green units on the map started moving and could actually kill the red one that I could recruit.
Oof.
Also reinforcements at the start of the chapter. More oof. So yeah, basically had to reset and then redo the whole thing. Oswin actually did a great job at picking off enemy archers here and there. They kinda suck as well so there was no risk of him dying at all, since the map was infested with archers. But I was also really looking forward to this chapter because it had one of my favorite characters from Lyn's tale in it. I still enjoyed it.

I still don't know how or why I abandoned this game for so long. It's pretty great. Decided to dust it off today and make a bit more progress, and I'm now on World 3-6.

150 hours, huh? Kirby's my most-played Switch game and it's only at 135 hours, so what can I say.Revenant Archagent said:

i feel like Awakening is a better starting point since it's easier and has filthy casual mode etc but out of the older games it does do the best job of teaching the player how2fe. so it's still not a bad starting point/point to get back into the series. esp since the games just go uphill from there except for like shadow dragon I guessRevenant Archagent said:
alternatively, just play the game for Hector
After another session, I have now completed chapter 16x. It was tough, but once I knew how to do it, it really was not all that bad.
It was also essentially a grinding map for Oswin, even though most enemies were axe users, and he is a lance user. But I got him to level 20. My first proper promotion is upon me. So proud of this boy.
Erk is also getting close to promotion, at level 13. So yeah. Going smoothly.
Also this is the map where you recruit Canas, your only dark magic user for quite some time, and dark magic happens to be my favorite type of magic, so I must take care of him.
