I am looking forward to Triangle Strategy. Hopefully I like it enough to finish it. I was big on Octopath Traveler, but about 4 chapters in on each character, and my brain went numb and I stopped enjoying it. I know TS is going to be a strategy RPG and different story though, so hopefully it's more engaging. In terms of strat RPGs I find myself replaying the Tellius games in the Fire Emblem series and Ogre Battle 64 the most these days (by that I mean within the five years).

Ah, another Fire Emblem Fan! My favourite are the GBA ones, especially Blazing Sword. Tellius I only played 1 or 2 times, I borrowed Path of Radiance from a friend back then and buying that game nowadays is... hella expensive.
That reminds me, really curious for the results of Choose Your Legends in FEH this Friday.

Man, I really wish they'd add GBA ports to the Nintendo echo for Switch...

I do love me some Fire Emblem. I was the typical person who didn't know it existed until Marth/Roy in Super Smash Bros. Melee. Then I got FE7 on GBA in 2003. I must have done about 100 playthroughs of it. Sain the Green Lance baaaby! Hector x Lyn on the boat. Doki Doki. A few years later I got PoR on Gamecube, but initially found the graphics to unimpressive not realizing it was the first 3-D Fire Emblem. It grew on me much later, and the Tellius games wound up being my favorite in the series. I actually like PoR in spite of its clunk a bit more than Radiant Dawn, even though Radiant Dawn has smooth animations and gameplay (at least after Part 1).

I've played and beaten Fire Emblem 1(and its shadow dragon remake), 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Awakening, and Three Houses. I've yet to emulate Thracia 776 or any of the SNES entries. I tend to lean towards Axe or Lance users and the Assassin characters. Legault in the Blazing Blade and his supports with Isadora are probably my favorite supports in the series. (Supports are another reason PoR outranks RD for me).

Favored Characters from the ones I've played:

1 - Barst
6 - Dieck
7 - Legault (though Hector and the rest of the cast are all in my heart forever from so many replays)
8 - Cormag
9 - Boyd
10 - Boyd again
Awakening - Donnel
3H - Dedue
