• Answer questions you've received! Keep it short or TL;DR to your heart's content, depending on how much you have or are in the mood to say!
• After each answer you give, ask a question back to the person who answered you. Keep the thread of questioning up for as long as both parties are game!

OH BOY, TALES AND FIRE EMBLEMS.....

Both series have games that are entirely disconnected from each other! Tales of Vesperia and Tales of Symphonia don't have much in common outside of a few reoccurring minor things, for example! There are some games that take place in the same world (Tales of Symphonia and Tales of Symphonia 2, Xillia and Xillia 2, Zestiria and Berseria) but otherwise they're mostly their own separate worlds with unique characters and stories. Fire Emblem is pretty much the same way, though there are a few that take place in the same world!

For Tales, you can really pick up any of the games and find them fun. Vesperia is kind of a mess on the story front (it has three very distinctive arcs that do not fit together nearly as well as the writers probably wanted it to) but the characters are great and the gameplay is very fun! Vesperia is one that is entirely separate, it doesn't have any other games tied to it. Berseria is the most recent and while I would suggest it for the gameplay/story/characters, it is connected to Zestiria, so playing Zestiria would definitely fill in the gaps. Abyss is very good as well, but the gameplay's a bit dated. I honestly love almost all the Tales games I've played!!! Berseria and Vesperia are probably easiest to play since they're on Steam!

Fire Emblem is very similar - Three Houses is the newest game and the one a lot of people are playing as their first FE and that's definitely a good decision! Story-wise, it's really good and the characters are all great as well! I would also suggest Awakening if you want to play a more traditional FE, though it is an older game. I do nothing but drag Fates but I do genuinely love it, it's just an absolute mess and definitely not worth all the money it would take to buy all three routes lmao.

THIS WAS REALLY LONG I'M SO SORRY I'm very passionate about these!!!!

oh my god never be sorry i love hearing people be passionate about the series they love

i just spent money on animal crossing, but maybe when i get the chance, i'll try three houses and... isn't vesperia or something on switch now? i don't remember which tales game it is that i heard that about.

[greatestcool]

yes!! vesperia is on the switch now! the switch port is pretty good, although I definitely suggest looking up a guide for the sidequests because you can miss a lot of content because for some reason they put all of the big bad's backstory and motivations into sidequests. vesperia is dumb. I love it, but it's so dumb.

I really hope you do enjoy both of them if you get them!! I'd definitely look up some gameplay for both just to see if it's a style you'll like; FE can be very hit or miss if you aren't big on tactical rpgs, haha!
