    It’s nice that everything is so high quality, but I dunno, whenever a Special Edition hits that $100 mark I expect more than an art book and some cards. Glad you like it though.

      In my region, the game by itself is $59.99, so the extras is an extra $39.99. The value to me is just about worth it if you are a fan of the series and of the artwork. I think a physical soundtrack would have make it even more appealing.

    Congrats! And welcome to the FE fandom! My first was Awakening, and I've been hooked every since. Engage is SO good! I do recommend playing Normal difficulty since you're new, but do Classic mode (permadeath), not Casual. Reason being, modern FE have turn rewinds so there's never actually any real threat (on harder modes the rewinds are limited but on Normal they're infinite). Even though there's no real threat, it makes it FEEL more threatening with the looming threat of permanent death. It's basically a mind hack. But I kid you not it works. You will enjoy the game SO much more and be far less careless on Classic. And if you do lose a character, just rewind a turn or two and course correct.

    The game is $60, and for an extra $40 you get an art book, poster, steelbook, cards, and a beautiful box.
    I always think Art books are worth the price, and this one is spectacular. The poster is really good quality (a simple iron and it can be framed), and the steelbook is also great. Most CE's also hold their price over time if not increase. All in all, you can't really go wrong with a CE from the big games.
    However, Tons of people (including me) recieving damaged boxes and opened seals because nobody protects it when shipping. My amazon shipment just threw the CE inside a big box with not even a single sheet of bubblewrap or paper, it just slid around the entire time and was pretty damaged. And the gamestop people never got their Tarot cards due to such a short supply of them. It's been somewhat of a disaster but not as bad as the Xeno 3 one.

    Enjoy Engage! I remember my first time playing a Fire Emblem game back on the GBA. I'm also a Shining Force fan so when FE came to the States, I was instantly hooked. I got to play a few levels on Engage last night. If you never played a game in the series, after playing some of it, I can honestly say that Engage is a good starting point. If I had to compare it to other games in the series, it feels like Awakening, Birthright and Heroes had a kid. Have fun!

      @cd4playa1245 Год назад +1

      Yes, exactly Engage is like awakening and fates except minus the pair up mechanics, but that’s replaced with the emblem rings. Also there’s a lot of shining force inspiration in this one. The movement and even the music uses a lot of flutes, which shining force 3 did for its incredible soundtrack.

    FWIW, my bottom seal wasn’t broken, but the flap isn’t fully closed and the seal itself is pretty loose compared to the top seal. I would speculate that because of perhaps a slight miscalculation on the size of the insert, the bottom won’t fully close, and they left a little wiggle room for the bottom seal. That being the case, I guess the loose seal would be subject to possibly snap from the pressures of the contents moving the flap back and forth during transport between manufacturing, distribution, and its final destination?

    Personally (based solely what I enjoy and in no way objective), I found Engage a step down. The weapon wheel return is great but most other decisions I find a step down. While the renders are objectively better in Engage, the style of Three Houses keeps it in the 1 spot for me. I prefer the more in-depth style social interactions of 3H. I love tactical rpgs but I want more than just the combat. The school made me feel more excited for the battles.
    Engage is good, but it's last of the 3 Fire Emblem games I've played. That art book is gorgeous though.
